Chapter 962: Charging into the Huang Family (3)
The guards had all frozen in place when they saw what happened to Third Master Huang.
There were looks of terror that were on their faces when they saw this.
After all, Third Master Huang was much stronger than any of them and yet he had been treated like a child by this cloaked figure.
If Third Master Huang was handled by this cloaked figure like this, there was no telling what would happen if they were to keep fighting him.
No, they already knew what would happen since it had been happening this entire time.
They had been completely suppressed by the cloaked figure before Third Master Huang even appeared. The cloaked figure had been throwing them around as if they were rag dolls.
It wasn't as if they could do anything to his defense that even Third Master Huang couldn't break.
The captain of the guards was the first one to come back to his senses.
He gritted his teeth and shouted, "Get Third Master Huang! We must rescue him!"
The guards had grim looks on their faces when they heard this, but they knew that there was a reason for the captain of the guards giving them this order.
It was because if anything else happened to Third Master Huang, they would be blamed for what happened. While the cloaked figure had taken down the third master of the Huang Family, that didn't mean that this was over yet.
The Huang Family had a deep foundation and there were many more experts in the Huang Family.
Third Master Huang was by far the strongest of the Huang Family and there were others that would take the cloaked figure down. Only if they allowed something to happen to Third Master Huang, there was no doubt that they would be punished when this was over.
So the only thing that they had to worry about now was how to rescue Third Master Huang.
The guards all steeled themselves and prepared for a fight to take back Third Master Huang.
It was just that none of them expected Huang Xie to suddenly raise his foot and kick Third Master Huang.
That kick sent Third Master Huang flying through the air and he landed where the guards were gathering. Like this, it would be easy for them to bring Third Master Huang away from this place and take him to safety.
The guards all had confused looks on their faces when they saw this.
There wasn't a single guard that was able to understand why Huang Xie would do something like this.
He was clearly here to cause trouble with the Huang Family, so it would only be rational to hold Third Master Huang hostage. If he had used Third Master Huang as a hostage, it would have been much easier for him.
Only it didn't seem like the cloaked figure cared about Third Master Huang at all.
Did the cloaked figure not recognize him?
That would be impossible with the way that the cloaked figure had acted when Third Master Huang had attacked him.
So why did he do this?
None of the guards were able to figure this out, but they didn't have time to think about it as Huang Xie had already started moving towards them.
They could only grab Third Master Huang to take him out of this place while also sending some guards forward to stop him. Only those that went forward were sent flying just like the guards from before.
It didn't seem like anything was about to change with the way that Huang Xie charged forward.
It seemed like he was heading to the main residence of the Huang Family.
The guards couldn't do anything except try their best to stop Huang Xie in his path.
But in the end, they just couldn't do anything until a voice rang out.
"Do you really think that this is a place where you can act however you want?"
When this voice rang out, there were several more cloaked figures that appeared. Only when the guards saw these cloaked figures, they didn't seem worried. Rather, it seemed like they were relieved to see these cloaked figures compared to Huang Xie.
These cloaked figures had a different cloak from Huang Xie after all.
The one that was leading them was also someone that Huang Xie recognized.
He was the fourth master of the Huang Family and the fourth uncle of Huang Xie.
He was the one that led the cleaners of the Huang Family.
This was a group of people who worked for the Huang Family that took care of the dirty business that the rest of the family didn't want to get involved in. Namely, they made sure that the loose ends of the Huang Family were tied up.
That meant that they were involved with those that had chased after Huang Xie.
It was this fourth master of the Huang Family who had been the one in charge of chasing after Huang Xie when he ran away from the Huang Family.
So it was only natural that Huang Xie held a grudge against this fourth uncle of his as well.
But that wasn't the only reason why the guards were relieved to see these cloaked figures.
It was the fact that since they were the cleaners of the Huang Family, that meant that none of them were weak. They had to have a certain amount of strength to clean up for the Huang Family after all.

The weakest among them was in the Foundation Realm.
Fourth Master Huang was in the Qi Condensation Realm.
But Huang Xie didn't panic when he saw them.
Instead, he just raised his hand and wagged a finger at Fourth Master Huang, as if he was challenging him.
Fourth Master Huang knitted his brows when he saw this, but he didn't lose his temper like Third Master Huang did. He had the same cold look on his face the entire time as if he wasn't affected by anything that happened.
Though if one looked closely, they could see that there was something that changed in his eyes.
It seemed that he wasn't completely immune to emotions.
It seemed that he still got angry like a normal person.
Since Huang Xie challenged him, Fourth Master Huang just simply raised his hand and gave a wave which caused the cloaked figures to start moving.
They completely surrounded Huang Xie and seemed to take a formation around him, as if they were trying to trap him. Only they didn't seem to charge at him as they started to move in a circle around him.
It didn't seem like any of them were planning on attacking him with the way that they circled around him. It even seemed like they were deliberately keeping their distance from him.
Only Huang Xie didn't seem to care.
With the way that he stood in the center of their formation, it was as if he was even letting them do what they wanted to do.
But eventually, Huang Xie had to move when it seemed like none of them were planning to do anything.
Huang Xie charged forward at the ones that were in front of him.
The moment that he did, there were daggers that came from all around him.
It was as if they had been waiting for this one moment with the way that the daggers all flew out at the same time.
It turned out that the formation that they took wasn't an offensive one, but rather a defensive one. They had seen how Huang Xie kept charging at the guards, so they had been planning on using this against him.
With how many daggers flew through the air, it didn't seem like there was a single gap for Huang Xie to escape from. Only Huang Xie didn't need a gap to deal with these daggers around him.
There wasn't a single dagger that hit him in the end as all of them were blocked by this strange faint green barrier that appeared around him.
The cloaked figures seemed like they hesitated for a second when this happened, but then they quickly attacked him from every direction once again. It seemed like they wanted to cover the entire area in their dagger with the way that they all threw their daggers.
Only there was nothing that worked against Huang Xie.
That was until there were explosions that rang out.
Hidden among these daggers that they threw were special daggers that exploded when they made contact. These were special artifacts that were filled with elemental energy that made them stronger than normal daggers.
Only when the smoke cleared…it showed that these still didn't have an effect on Huang Xie.
He continued pushing through the smoke as if it never happened.
Fourth Master Huang narrowed his eyes before saying, "With me!"
At this command, there were many cloaked figures that appeared around him and they charged together.
The spiritual energy around them seemed to come together as they charged forward, as if they were preparing a single attack.
This time, Huang Xie didn't just use his body to block the attack.
This time, he actually raised a fist and punched out in response to this attack.
When the two sides clashed, there was this large explosion that rang out.
This time, Huang Xie was actually pushed back.
Only Fourth Master Huang and his people were pushed back more than Huang Xie was.
They had actually been sent flying by Huang Xie's attack.
There was no doubt on who had come out on top in this clash.
