After leaving the Celestial Phoenix Race.

Gu Chenfeng and the Ice Phoenix hurried toward the Feng Family together.

Along the way, Gu Chenfeng told the Ice Phoenix about Feng Yueji's situation.

"Yueji, huh?" The Ice Phoenix slightly knitted her Liu Mei and said, "No wonder she seemed so weighed down by worries. I asked, but she wouldn't say anything. So her clan has fallen into trouble."

Gu Chenfeng said with a faint smile, "Yueji is, after all, a disciple of the Myriad Ancient Immortal Mansion. When the Feng Family is in trouble, the Myriad Ancient Immortal Mansion naturally can't just stand by and watch."

"Before heading to the Celestial Phoenix Race, I already ordered people to secretly protect the Feng Family. They won't be in danger."

The Ice Phoenix asked curiously, "Master, just what kind of Jade Pendant is it that so many people want to get their hands on it?"

Gu Chenfeng said with a faint smile, "According to Yueji, within the Ancient Jade Pendant is hidden an Ancient Immortal Technique as well as an extremely powerful force. The Feng Family ancestor was a mighty Immortal Venerable expert."

"The Ancient Jade Pendant he passed down must contain an extraordinary treasure. Naturally, many people want to obtain it."

The Feng Family, that once-glorious clan, had now fallen into utter decline.

However.

The Ancient Jade Pendant passed down by the Feng Family ancestor had instead become the target of covetous eyes from countless forces.

At this very moment.

Void Ghost City in the Immortal Realm.

The Feng Family was located within this Void Ghost City.

All around the Feng Family manor, crowds of Cultivators had already gathered.

Some were people of Void Ghost City, some were from other cities, and some were disciples of other forces.

Above the Feng Family manor, people of the three major families of Void Ghost City were gathered.

The three major families were the Zhou Family, the Li Family, and the Wang Family.

Their goal was precisely the Feng Family's Ancient Jade Pendant.

Originally, the three major families had fairly good relations with the Feng Family. Unfortunately, because of the Ancient Jade Pendant, they tore off all pretenses and became mortal enemies. 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

"The Feng Family has been in decline for many years, and on top of that they were suppressed by many great powers before, their foundation severely damaged. Their strength is far from what it once was."

"Facing the three major families of Void Ghost City, the Feng Family simply can't contend with them. Are they really not going to hand over the Ancient Jade Pendant?"

"Wealth is an external thing. Why is the Feng Family going this far? Isn't staying alive better?"

"To protect that Ancient Jade Pendant, the Feng Family is really throwing their lives away. I heard the Feng Family's young miss joined the Myriad Ancient Immortal Mansion seeking help—don't know if that's true."

"You still don't know? News has long spread that the Myriad Ancient Immortal Mansion has declined. Right now they're still recruiting disciples and trying to win over experts, but no one is willing to join, and no one dares to either. The Myriad Ancient Immortal Mansion has quite a few enemies."

The onlookers from all directions murmured in low voices.

At the same time.

Inside the Feng Family residence, the atmosphere was oppressive and tense.

The Feng Family Clan Leader, Feng Li, looked haggard, his eyes bloodshot, clearly driven to the extreme of rage.

In the main hall of the manor.

An Elder asked worriedly, "Patriarch, the three major families are calling us out again outside. They could strike at any time. The Celestial Shadow Immortal Palace experts still haven't shown themselves. What should we do?"

The Great Elder frowned deeply and said, "The three major families have joined forces. They're determined to get the Ancient Jade Pendant and definitely won't show mercy."

Feng Li gritted his teeth, clenching his fists viciously as he said, "No matter what, we must guard the Ancient Jade Pendant. This is the dignity and inheritance of our Feng Family!"

"Even if the entire Feng Family dies in battle, they can dream on if they think they'll obtain the Ancient Jade Pendant."

Feng Yueji bit her lip and said, "Grandfather, Father, Elders, Ancestor would never lie to me, and I also believe in Young Master Flame Shadow."

"Let's hope so!" Feng Li loosened his fists a little and sighed. "But we must also be prepared. If they don't make a move, Yueji, you must take the Ancient Jade Pendant and escape. You must never let the Ancient Jade Pendant fall into their hands."

The Elders all nodded one after another, their expressions firm, but deep worry flickered in their eyes.

Feng Yueji fell silent, firmly resolving in her heart, "Ancestor and Young Master Flame Shadow definitely won't lie to me. The Celestial Shadow Immortal Palace experts will definitely appear."

At this moment.

Outside the Feng Family residence, the forces of the three major families had already surrounded the Feng Family so tightly that not even water could leak through.

A Zhou Family Immortal Monarch expert shouted angrily, "People of the Feng Family, listen up! Our Patriarch said that as long as you obediently hand over the Ancient Jade Pendant, you can still keep your lives!"

The Feng Family juniors stood on the walls of the residence, glaring furiously.

"Dream on! Even if our Feng Family all die in battle, we won't let you succeed!" a young Feng Family junior roared, not the least bit afraid, clearly having already put life and death aside.

"Hahaha!" The people of the three major families burst into unrestrained laughter.

A Li Family Immortal Monarch mocked, "With just the old, weak, sick, and disabled of the Feng Family, you still want to resist? Refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit—you're simply overestimating yourselves!"

A Wang Family Immortal Monarch sneered playfully, "Our family already said, for the sake of our many years of friendship, if you hand over the Ancient Jade Pendant, we won't harm a single member of the Feng Family. Don't refuse a good offer when it's given to you."

In the shadows of the Feng Family, the experts of the Celestial Shadow Immortal Palace were hiding their auras, observing the situation.

"Bullying the few with the many—utterly shameless!" a Celestial Shadow Immortal Palace expert said through gritted teeth. "Grand Commander, should we make a move?"

The leading Grand Commander hesitated for a moment, then said softly, "They haven't actually started fighting yet. The Old Patriarch hasn't arrived either. No rush. Let's wait and see. It won't be too late to act when it's necessary."

Before long.

The Feng Family Patriarch, Feng Li, and the Elders walked out.

The Feng Family's Immortal Monarchs and Immortal Kings also flashed into view one after another, all assuming battle stances, ready to fight the enemy to the death at any moment.

Seeing Feng Li and the others come out, the people of the three major families all wore schadenfreude-laced sneers on their faces.

A Zhou Family Immortal Monarch laughed arrogantly and coldly, "Patriarch of the Feng Family, you have nowhere left to run. Hand over the Ancient Jade Pendant if you know what's good for you, and you can still preserve the lives of all your Feng Family members."

Feng Li forcibly endured his severe injuries and erupted with a tyrannical aura, snarling fiercely, "Today, even if this Patriarch has to stake the entire Feng Family, I'll make you pay a bitter price!"

"Tsk tsk, Patriarch of the Feng Family, your injuries are quite serious. I almost forgot, the Feng Family's Alchemist is dead. There's no one to do Alchemy for you now. Without Elixirs to help, it'll be very hard for those injuries to recover," a Li Family Immortal Monarch said with a cold smile, not placing the heavily injured Feng Li in his eyes at all.

"Enough nonsense with them. Since they're seeking death, let's grant their wish right now." The Wang Family Immortal Monarch spoke viciously, unleashing terrifying Immortal Power in full, his violent aura enveloping the Feng Family manor.

The Wang Family Immortal Monarch gave the order, "Wang Family, hear my command! Kill without mercy!"

The Li Family Immortal Monarch gave the order, "Li Family, hear my command! Kill without mercy!"

The Zhou Family Immortal Monarch gave the order, "Zhou Family, hear my command! Kill without mercy!"

The three major families had joined forces; the Feng Family was certain to be no match. If no miracle occurred, the Feng Family would surely be annihilated.

At the joint command of the three families, their people surged forward like a tide, murderous aura rolling.

Feng Yueji clasped her hands tightly before her chest, her face full of panic and worry, praying in her heart, "Ancestor, hurry and come! The Feng Family is no match for them."

Just then.

A cold voice came from the void: "The three major families are really tired of living!"
