All the Ancient Martial Artists and Martial Cultivators present had already taken action, each of them grabbing their weapons and mounting their horses, united in their efforts to deal with the several dozen exceptionally strong fighters in black cloaks and masks.
However, the performance of a few people among them took everyone by surprise!
Members of the An Family were actually Ancient Martial Artists!
Watching Old Master An and An Zisheng fight with fierce prowess, working seamlessly together, almost left everyone stunned.
They only knew that among the Xuandu Five Great Aristocratic Families, only the Gu and Guh Families were Ancient Martial Arts Families. When did the An Family become one too?
Among those present, the most surprised by this situation was Guh Tian, the Family Head of the Guh Family.
He originally thought that the An Family was just an ordinary upper-class aristocratic family, and that it would only take minutes for the Guh Family to completely take their place. Although An Yiqing and Gu Yelin were already engaged, Guh Tian had always looked down on the An Family members.
But now, he realized that he had made a huge mistake!
When exactly did the An Family members become Ancient Martial Artists? What was their purpose in keeping this a secret?
For a moment, Guh Tian was overwhelmed with countless thoughts, firmly labeling the An Family’s concealment of their martial abilities as a "conspiracy." If the situation hadn’t prohibited it, Guh Tian would have really liked to exchange blows with Old Master An, to test the extent of his true strength.
As for the others, they were also very shocked by the revelation of the An Family as Ancient Martial Artists, but the urgency of the current situation did not allow them to think further.
However, this event had become a top priority in everyone’s minds. It seemed that the secret An Yiqing had always wanted to hide could no longer be concealed!
When An Yiqing and Gu Yelin moved stealthily into the banquet hall, what they saw was such a chaotic battle.
Seeing Old Master An and the others involved, An Yiqing’s eyes flickered, her thoughts barely stirring before her body reacted first.
A shadow flashed by quickly as An Yiqing disappeared from her spot, and when she reappeared, she was already standing beside An Zisheng.
At that moment, there were two black-cloaked, masked men in front of An Zisheng, both at the Mid-Level Innate Realm. It was indeed very dangerous for An Zisheng, at the Great Achievement Mid-Level, to fight against two Mid-Level Innate opponents.
If An Yiqing hadn’t appeared so quickly, one of the men’s palms, thick with Inner Breath, would have almost landed on An Zisheng’s body.
If that palm had struck, An Zisheng would either be dead or severely injured!
Her fingers formed claws as An Yiqing’s hands viciously grabbed the arms of the two black-cloaked men. Faced with an opponent of equal strength, the two men in black had no chance to resist; their arms were brutally twisted and broken by An Yiqing!
Immediately after, An Yiqing swiftly closed in, lifting the two men, ignoring their attacks. She gripped their other arms and with a fierce pull—
In an instant, blood splattered everywhere! The scene was brutally gruesome!
It seemed that An Yiqing was truly enraged. She had finally found her family, only to watch her father nearly lose his life before her eyes. She could not tolerate it!
The sudden and fierce manner in which An Yiqing had torn apart her opponents left everyone present astonished. Just how powerful did one have to be to accomplish such a feat?
Looking at An Yiqing’s grim and ice-cold face, everyone shivered violently, once again reminding themselves never to provoke this woman in the future.
