The Legendary Son-in-law of the Emperor
Chapter 713 - 712: Rise Up and Attack

Chapter 713: Chapter 712: Rise Up and Attack

"He is already dead," Ye Xuan said slowly.

"What?!"

As soon as these words came out, the people of the Emperor Immortal Sect were suddenly greatly shocked and dismayed.

Even the members of the Ye Family and the Mo family looked incredulous.

They had learned about Ning Zongtang from their elders, a legendary young genius from forty thousand years ago in the East Desolate, already bearing the title of Sword Saint at that time.

Wasn’t he perfectly fine last month, how come he is dead now?

Could it have been done by the Five Dominators of East Desolation and the Divine Dragon Azure Sea?!

Subconsciously, this was what they all thought.

"Is this true?" Zhou Youwei looked at Ye Xuan, her complexion somewhat pale.

"Mhm," Ye Xuan nodded slightly, looking in the direction of Zhongxuan Mountain, and said softly, "His sword pointed to the future of the Emperor Immortal Sect."

In his opinion, Ning Zongtang could have chosen not to die.

But everyone makes their own choices.

Ning Zongtang chose to end his life in this way, also telling the world about the legacy of an old generation figure, and even more so, reminding the people of the Emperor Immortal Sect to remember their Sect’s mission.

This is probably what legacy means, in a certain sense.

"Did Saint Ancestor Ning... really die..."

The people of the Emperor Immortal Sect behind him immediately became despondent.

In their eyes, Ning Zongtang was an incredibly formidable being.

When the nine major Sects besieged the Emperor Immortal Sect in the past, he, alone with his sword, forced the nine Sects to retreat in utter disarray.

Even the ancestors of the Fierce Battle Sect and Qianyuan Cave Heaven were merely vanquished in seconds before him.

Such a being should not have died!

But since these words came from their First Senior Brother, they knew it was most likely true.

"Now is not the time for sorrow," Tan Qingshan said with a solemn expression.

Only then did everyone realize that the current situation was extremely perilous, and they immediately suppressed their grief and anger, assessing the situation before them.

At this moment, many forces outside the Hengduan Mountain chose to withdraw immediately without lingering.

For they knew that a major event was about to unfold.

This kind of affair was not something they could stand by and watch.

In the blink of an eye, the third-rate forces and those cultivators from insignificant forces had all withdrawn from the Hengduan Mountain.

Only powerful forces of second-rate or above remained.

All those within the Hengduan Mountain had exited, the majority were either dead or wounded; the losses were severe.

But if one were to speak of the worst loss, naturally it would be the people of the Five Dominators of East Desolation and the Divine Dragon Azure Sea who suffered the most, losing too many people, including characters of the Saint Heir level, within the Hengduan Mountain.

How could they bear such losses?

"If the Mo family and the Ye Family intervene in today’s affairs, don’t blame the Fierce Sun Heavenly Sect for turning hostile!"

Indeed, after most had left, the Fierce Sun Heavenly Sect was the first to act aggressively.

It was a black-haired elder dressed in red robes, flying out from the Floating Divine Tower of the Fierce Sun Heavenly Sect, his aura rolling, as fierce as dragons and as ferocious as tigers!

His eyes opened, like two suns, casting brilliant divine light.

This was undoubtedly a Saint Realm powerhouse, and not just an ordinary one at that!

Beside him stood several Fierce Sun Heavenly Sect’s experts, some with cold demenors, others with fierce expressions, and some with a sky-high killing intent!

They all watched Ye Xuan!

And the red-robed elder’s words were directed at the Ye Family and the Mo family.

"The Dao Friend Xuanhu from the Fierce Sun Heavenly Sect surely jests; does Eternal Mountain now have to obey the orders of the Fierce Sun Heavenly Sect?"

Within the ranks of the Ye Family, the Great Elder Ye Chengshan personally arrived, along with the Second Elder Ye Changhui and a dozen other powerful individuals, their aura robust, showing no sign of concession.

If anyone within the Ye Family respected Ye Xuan, Ye Chengshan would be second to none.

Because when Ye Xuan first joined the Ye Family, he had first made Ye Chengshan submit.

Upon hearing the news that Ye Xuan had killed so many, he personally led the Ye Family’s powerful members to rush to Hengduan Mountain for reinforcement.

"Though your Sect is indeed one of the East Desolate Ten Dominators, does our Mo family have to fear the Fierce Sun Heavenly Sect?"

After Ye Chengshan spoke, the Mo family’s powerhouses also stood out and shouted coldly.

The person from the Mo family was also an elder, with an aura not inferior to the red-robed elder from the Fierce Sun Heavenly Sect.

This person was named Mo Chun, the current Second Elder of the Mo family, and a confidant of Mo Yunchui.

This time, Mo Chun led more than thirty of the Mo family’s top powerhouses to make sure Ye Xuan and others could leave safely.

"Let’s try then!" The red-robed elder named True Person Xuanhu, after hearing the words of Ye Chengshan and Mo Chun snorted coldly.

"The Ye Family and the Mo family better not forget, this matter isn’t just about the Fierce Sun Heavenly Sect,"

At the same time, Elder Pang from the Myriad Artifacts Saint Sect also made his stance known.

Not only that, Mr. Lv Tiangang from the Medicine Pavilion, Ping Zhenyu, also rushed to the site with many strong cultivators from East Desolate.

In the Divine Dragon Azure Sea faction, the Long Family could be described as a gathering of powerhouses.

The Heavenly Dragon Dynasty and the Six Demon Sect were naturally no exceptions.

All the strong cultivators from the Five Dominators of East Desolation and the Divine Dragon Azure Sea had arrived.

All of them were here to take Ye Xuan’s life!

Ye Chengshan and Mo Chun exchanged glances and could see the solemnity in each other’s eyes.

The implications of this time’s incident were simply too great.

Even the Fierce Sun Heavenly Sect and Six Demon Sect, which originally held enmity towards each other, as well as the Fierce Sun Heavenly Sect and Heavenly Dragon Dynasty, had unexpectedly joined forces.

Such a thing had almost never happened before.

Amongst the East Desolate Ten Dominators, aside from the faraway Southern Sea Immortal Island and those uninterested in worldly affairs like Giant Spirit Valley and Mountain God Dao, the rest of the overlords had more or less some vested interests.

Take for example, the Heavenly Dragon Dynasty with the greatest ambition, always looking to trample the Mo family and the Fierce Sun Heavenly Sect underfoot and incorporate them into the territory of the Heavenly Dragon Dynasty.

On the other hand, the Fierce Sun Heavenly Sect was at odds with both the Heavenly Dragon Dynasty and the Six Demon Sect.

This complex web of grudges and alliances had formed a false balance in East Desolate.

Because they were all very clear that their strengths were roughly equal, and if a true battle were to break out, both sides would suffer losses.

Beings on this level usually only had minor skirmishes.

A real war had almost never occurred.

But today, the Five Dominators of East Desolation and the Divine Dragon Azure Sea had joined forces to make enemies of both the Mo family and the Ye Family!

No one had anticipated this outcome.

It was completely beyond imagination.

Who would have thought that after the people from the Five Dominators of East Desolation and the Divine Dragon Azure Sea entered Hengduan Mountain, instead of being threatened by Hengduan Mountain, they ended up dead by Ye Xuan’s hand.

"Ye Xuan, you must escape to the Mo family with all your might,"

At this moment, Lv Tiangang transmitted his voice to Ye Xuan.

He had already fully grasped the current situation and knew about the death of Ning Zongtang.

In his view, Ye Xuan was the hope of the Emperor Immortal Sect, and absolutely could not have any mishap here.

Otherwise, the Emperor Immortal Sect would be utterly doomed.

"Escape?" Ye Xuan’s expression was calm, and he gave a faint smile, "That’s impossible."

Upon hearing this, Lv Tiangang became somewhat anxious, "Now is not the time to act tough. If something happens to you, how would the Emperor Immortal Sect return to Zhongxuan Mountain? How will you avenge Elder Ning?"

"You just watch, as for the death of old Ning, I will take care of it later," Ye Xuan said.

As they spoke, Ye Xuan, accompanied by Zhou Youwei and others, walked towards where the Mo family’s people were gathered.

Everyone else closely followed Ye Xuan, with an extremely tense look on their faces.

Right now, they were not facing the younger generation, but rather the older generation of powerhouses from both the Five Dominators of East Desolation and the Divine Dragon Azure Sea.

These beings were almost all figures who had made a name for themselves a long time ago; if they took action, who could withstand them?

All of them were Saint Realm powerhouses!

"For the slaughter of my disciples, you should die today!"

Just as Ye Xuan and the others set off, True Person Xuanhuo coldly shouted.

Boom boom boom—

In an instant, the strong cultivators from the Fierce Sun Heavenly Sect, and their cultivators, moved to block Ye Xuan’s group’s path.

"Inside Hengduan Mountain, danger lurks at every turn, life and death are decreed by fate, and wealth is in the hands of heaven. Yet now, you blame the death of your disciples on someone else—aren’t your actions a bit too domineering?"

Seeing this, Mo Chun also waved his large hand.

The powerful members of the Mo family charged out, aiming to block the path of those from the Fierce Sun Heavenly Sect.

"If the Mo family dares to interfere any further, then it won’t just be cutting off trade with my branch; it will be the entire Medicine Pavilion!" The Medicine Pavilion’s Mr. Lv Tiangang, Ping Zhenyu, spoke with a somber face.

"Moreover, there were many who witnessed this affair—do not even think of making excuses for that young demon!"

Ping Zhenyu pointed at Ye Xuan and said coldly to Mo Chun.

"Inside Hengduan Mountain, was it or was it not this young demon who took action and slaughtered others?" Ping Zhenyu called out loudly.

"It was indeed this villain!"

Suddenly, the surviving younger generation cultivators from the Five Dominators of East Desolation and the Divine Dragon Azure Sea uniformly responded.

As they looked at Ye Xuan, their faces were filled with a sense of satisfaction.
