Blood mist filled the entire sky, glaring and dazzling to the extreme.

Nolan He’s eyes were blood-red, completely enraged by Jia Zhenjing. He led hundreds of family experts to swarm up, engaging in a fierce battle with the powerful members of South Heavenly Gate!

"Puff puff puff~"

Heads rolled, blood splattered, none of the experts from the Nolan Family could withstand the Dark Angel Jia Zhenjing. In less than a few minutes of battle, half of their forces had already fallen.

The Black Hawk fighters were ferocious, their methods of killing brutal, as if the blade entered white and came out red, slaughtering the guards to the point where they cried out for their mothers and fathers.

"Shangguan Chong! Ouyang Tian! What are you two doing just standing there? Hurry up and help us!!!" Nolan He’s face was stained with blood; he wanted to kill a few South Heavenly Gate members to vent his frustration, but Jia Zhenjing kept restraining him. 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

Unable to kill even one person, as time passed, watching his family guards die en masse, he began to worry.

"Ah!!!"

"Puff..."

"Ah!!!"

Sword Radiance crisscrossed, sword shadows cut through, and the plain ground on the mountainside was almost filled with the fallen from the Nolan Family.

"Puff!" Blood sprayed wildly, an elder’s forehead was struck by a blade, causing him to scream in agony, falling at Nolan He’s feet, his ten fingers stiff and trembling from the immense pain, his eyes filled with deep unwillingness. At the moment of his death, his eyes stared at Nolan He until he died... never closing.

"No!!!"

Nolan He roared with his eyes wide open; the elder who was killed was his brother!!!

Watching his brother die at his feet, the heart-wrenching pain drove Nolan He into madness.

"Shangguan Chong!!!"

Nolan He’s voice echoed continuously in the woods on the mountainside. Below the hillside, Shangguan Chong smoked a cigarette leisurely, and upon hearing the voice, his eyes narrowed into slits, yet he remained motionless.

"Brother Chong! Shouldn’t we intervene? He... he might die." Ouyang Tian expressed some concern. Nolan and his people were fighting desperately above while they waited below the hillside, coldly watching the battle above.

"Don’t rush. It’s not the time to help yet; we’ll act when both sides are exhausted." Shangguan Chong gripped his shoulder, urging him not to move. His eyes flashed with a ruthless gleam.

"This..."

Ouyang Tian’s face turned paper white; it seemed a bit excessive to trap the Nolan Family like this.

After all, they were allies, and angering the Nolan Family wouldn’t benefit the Ouyang Family. They had agreed for Nolan to lead the charge, and now they’ve done so.

"Shangguan Chong!!!" Nolan He’s heart-wrenching voice echoed through the mountainside.

"Alright! They’ve probably fought almost to the end. Kill!"

Shangguan Chong’s pupils contracted as he discarded the cigarette butt, leading the family experts rapidly towards the mountainside.

"Everyone in Ouyang, listen to my command, kill every member of the South Heavenly Gate without leaving one, to avenge those we’ve lost to them!"

Ouyang Tian shouted loudly; he had long wished for everyone in South Heavenly Gate to die.

Back then, Lin Zifeng’s night raid on the Ouyang residence resulted in the death of his son at the opponent’s hands. The humiliation and the pain of losing a child had tormented Ouyang Tian immensely.

"Kill kill kill~"

The two family’s experts formed an alliance, their killing cries shook the heavens, advancing towards the mountainside.

"Haha! Finally, it’s my turn to act."

Just then, as the two families progressed halfway up the mountainside, suddenly, from the mountaintop, members in identical uniforms leapt out in rows...

Mu Cangtian led the Mu Family members to appear at the steep mountaintop.

"What! Mu Cangtian!"

Shangguan Chong looked up, seeing Mu Cangtian, immediately sensing something amiss. But now they were already halfway up the mountain and couldn’t retreat.

"Haha... Shangguan Chong, Ouyang Tian. Long time no see. Do you still recognize this old friend of yours?" Mu Cangtian stood atop the mountain, overlooking the people below. He wore a black uniform with Azure Dragon patterns on the chest and arms.

"Mu Cangtian! I thought you were dead. Turns out you’ve been hiding at South Heavenly Gate all along." Ouyang Tian gritted his teeth in hatred.

"Ouyang Tian, is it a surprise? You thought I was dead? But now I’m standing right before you, isn’t it unexpected and frustrating?"

Mu Cangtian laughed heartily; today was the happiest day of his life, being able to stand at the peak and look down at the family heads of the two families. That feeling was more satisfying than consuming millennium-old ginseng...

Following Lin Zifeng to Yanjing for the Mu Family’s revival, Mu Cangtian always acted in the name of his daughter, Mu Yang, never once showing himself.

But now, his appearance shocked everyone.

"Mu Cangtian, don’t rely on South Heavenly Gate if you’re a real man; is it really great to be South Heavenly Gate’s dog?" Shangguan Chong regretted not killing him.

"A dog? Who’s being a dog is clear in their heart. Being cannon fodder for the so-called Heavenly Punishment Alliance, do you think it’s worthwhile?" Mu Cangtian looked at them, "Hmph, Shangguan Chong, who’s the real dog is obvious. Today, you will repay the blood debt of destroying my Mu Family with your own blood!"

"Smash! Smash them hard!"

Mu Cangtian’s voice cut the nonsense, retreating and waving his hand, as hundreds of remaining Mu Family members joined South Heavenly Gate.

These hundreds occupied the upper hand advantage and began pushing huge round stones down. Wolong Mountain had plenty of these stones; initially useless, they now became treasures to guard the mountain.

"Rumble... Rumble... Rumble..."

Hundreds of round stones rolled down the mountainside, the scene grand. The stones coated in fuel burned fiercely as they rolled down.

Shangguan Chong was already drenched in cold sweat.

"No!!!"

Ouyang Tian was completely stunned. Knowing that so many burning round stones rolling down, this was more dangerous than facing ten Sub-Saint experts at once!!!

"Rumble... Rumble..." The stones rolled down the steep hillside. The hundreds of family elite guards from Shangguan and Ouyang Families were dumbfounded.

"Run! If you don’t run, you won’t even have your life!"

The first to flee were Ouyang Family’s guards, discarding anything hindering their escape and frantically bolting downhill.

"Let’s unite and protect with Vital Energy!"

An elder somewhere loudly reminded everyone, but the enormous stones rolling down from the towering mountaintop had a force that no one could withstand.

"Boom boom boom..."

Seven or eight people were crushed into minced meat by the giant stones on the spot... Their heads were smashed to a thickness of only two fingers.

"Damn!"

This time, everyone desperately fled downhill. What South Heavenly Gate, what family, what alliance—all of it was nonsense. Surviving without being crushed by stones was already a blessing!
