Liu Zhide, this Spirit Platform Realm cultivator of loose cultivator origin, was now roaring like a madman and a wild beast, "Why, why? The dignified Celestial Human Zhong Family, why would you conspire with them to betray us? Zhong Luoxian, Wang Shouzhe, Zhong Xingwang, Wang Longyan! You disgrace the noble family descendants, despicable and shameless, shameless!"
His voice was mournful and tragic, full of endless anger, resentment, and even regret, resonating back and forth in the sky above the camp.
It was as if singing a dirge for the imminent fall of the noble Liu and Zhao Clans.
Zhong Xingwang was suppressing the Liang Family’s Liang Haofeng, feeling more exhilarated than ever.
As a descendant of the Celestial Human, possessing relatively poor talent, he had barely reached the Spirit Platform Realm and usually didn’t need to act. This rare opportunity to single out a rural ancestor of the same level was naturally a chance to impress his senior sister.
Upon hearing that the Wang Family had achieved a great victory, he was certainly happy for his senior sister and younger brother Shouzhe.
However, he didn’t expect that the old thief Liu Zhide would claim that the Zhong Family conspired with the Wang Family to betray the Liu and Zhao Clans?
Of course, there was collusion, but how could it be termed as betrayal? And who was Zhong Luoxian anyway? Could it be that his performance was so astonishing that it frightened them?
Couldn’t understand, never mind.
The word "conspire" made Zhong Xingwang feel excited yet trembled. It reminded him that he must strengthen and deepen his collusion with the Wang Family, so he could wander in front of his senior sister from time to time to show his presence.
If he could earn a cold and charming glance from his senior sister, hear her scold, "Get lost!" with a mock accusation, the feeling would blend ecstasy and delight.
While Zhong Xingwang indulged in his fantasies, feeling at ease.
Elsewhere on the battlefield, significant changes were occurring.
Foremost among them was a demon cultivator named Li, whose pupils shrank sharply, and his body tensed up.
The Liu and Zhao Clans had come with immense momentum, seemingly certain of their victory over the Wang Family. Unexpectedly, the situation collapsed in such a short time.
If not now, then when?
Just as he intended to make a move.
Ancestor Ruhong, who had been half-closing his eyes, slowly opened them, his face with a faint smile, "Thinking of leaving only now, might be a bit too late?"
"What do you intend?" The demon cultivator named Li narrowed his eyes, his voice rasping with a cold laugh, "Ancestor Ruhong, do you wish to stop me from leaving?"
With that, the two-foot-long demon blade in his hand flickered with black energy mist, its form ever-changing as if a ferocious and vicious soul were sealed within, roaring madly, waiting to devour someone.
It was like the low growl of a beast facing its enemy, warning and intimidating the opponent.
"Whether you stay or not, it’s not up to me." Ancestor Ruhong said placidly, "The decision lies with the sufferer Wang Family."
Li’s demon cultivator was a mix of shock, anger, and incredulity. The Wang Family hadn’t suffered a scratch; they were basking in glory, so what suffering was there to speak of?
Wang Shouzhe’s voice rang out, "Ancestor Ruhong is correct. You, demon cultivator, dared to plot against my Wang Family. Despite not succeeding, such sin is unforgivable. You think you can come as you please, leave as you wish, treating our Wang Family as what?"
"Ancestor Mang, Ancestor Mingsheng, I trouble you both."
"Hahaha! Didn’t expect a chance to make a move today, certainly won’t take Shouzhe’s favor in vain."
Gongsun Mang and Lua Mingsheng, the two ancestors, exchanged a glance, and with great understanding, stepped into the air, taking positions to block the direction from which the demon cultivator named Li could escape.
Together with Ancestor Ruhong, the three formed a triangular formation to encircle the demon cultivator, sealing off his escape route.
The demon cultivator named Li had terror written in his eyes, retreating two steps in remorseful anger, "Wang Family junior, since your Wang Family has already won, why make things difficult for me, when I haven’t raised a hand."
"Ridiculous." Wang Shouzhe scoffed with a loud cold laugh, "Since you accepted the invitation from the Liu and Zhao Clans to oppose my Wang Family, you must be ready to fall."
"Alright, alright, alright!" The demon cultivator named Li laughed furiously, "This old man has been in the Spirit Platform Realm for seventy years and is being threatened by a mere Qi Refining Realm brat for the first time. Chen Ruhong, Lua Mingsheng, Gongsun Mang, do you really think I am to be trifled with?" For origınal chapters go to 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵✦𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮✦𝓷𝓮𝓽
"Facing three at once, yet daring to boast." Wang Shouzhe laughed coldly, "Three ancestors, should this person escape easily, he would pose a threat to any family. Moreover, as a loose cultivator, he surely carries all his possessions, such a chance must not be missed."
The first part of Wang Shouzhe’s words made the three ancestors sharpen their eyes, revealing killing intent. However, the latter half brightened their eyes. Indeed, this demon cultivator, being a loose cultivator, is unlike family cultivators.
The biggest trait of a loose cultivator is distrust in others, trusting only oneself. Most valuables would likely be carried nearby.
"Shouzhe is right; this person cannot be left alive." Ancestor Ruhong’s eyes flashed with a severe tone, "All of you have families and businesses. Should this demon cultivator escape today, secretly targeting us, could anyone withstand it? Kill!"
Ancestor Ruhong was the first to act, his legs springing him into the air like a Great Peng.
At the same time, a transparent long spear appeared in his hand.
Though the spear was just about a foot long, its shape miniature, as Ancestor Ruhong infused it with Water Element Profound Qi, it rapidly expanded, turning into an over ten-feet-long spear in the blink of an eye.
