Chapter 560 - Father and Daughter

Finish it!

Urged by Tang Linzhan, the Tang family’s titled warriors who had just regained their ability to move sprang into action.

They bellowed and summoned their battle pets.

The three families were in a brawl. The other battle pet warriors of the Tang family had started to hunt down those who were trying to flee.

The Little Skeleton stood unmoving in the air, above all that mess. It simply gazed at the twilight on the horizon, as if thinking.

Under the feet of the Little Skeleton there were beasts and humans running about.

Bang!!

Like a fiend, Tang Ruyan cut off the head of a ninth-rank phoenix. She didn’t even stop to wipe off the blood. She pressed forward while bathed in crimson.

Behind her, a ninth-rank battle pet breathed out a fire that was about to reach her.

She chopped the flames into two strands.

Bang!

She dashed rapidly to meet that battle pet; it died with a wave of her sword.

Those battle pets were at the upper position of the ninth rank; they were currently unleashing powers close to the peak of the ninth rank because of the augmentation skills. However, they were vulnerable when compared to Tang Ruyan who was under the Demon Possession state!

“Damn it!”

“Is she also at the legendary rank?!”

The Wang family’s titled battle pet warriors, including the family head, were panic-stricken.

They were filled with apprehension because of Tang Ruyan. She was like a goddess of revenge that had just come out from hell, and no one was able to stop her! “Sir, go!

“We will stop her!” several Wang family’s battle pet warriors shouted. They summoned their battle pets and burned their astral powers.

Even if they disregarded that white skeleton, Tang Ruyan alone had robbed them of their hope. They had long forgotten the idea of defeating her.

Running was the only choice left!

If their family head could escape, the Wang family would survive!

The family head clenched his teeth and his fists. He eventually made up his mind and ran off!

To aid his elders, the family head didn’t summon back his battle pets, except for one Rotting Wing Beast that had a peak ninth-rank bloodline.

That was a demon pet, and a very powerful one at that. It was said that the beast had once served the Ashura King. The Rotting Wing Beast was the family head’s favorite and it had been with him the longest. It was his friend!

Run!

The family head ran away with wild abandon!

He ran faster than he had ever done so in his life. He had to get away at all costs!

The moment he ran away for his life was the moment that the strike against the Tang family had failed!

The consequences were much graver. The Wang family would have to face tremendous troubles and they would be uprooted from the four ancient families!

A monster like Tang Ruyan had been lured out because of the strike. No one would stand in the way of the Tang family’s development from then on!

The Wang family and the Situ family would have to deal with the Tang family’s retaliation. Tang Ruyan and the white skeleton together were enough to flatten any family!

He had to run!

It wasn’t just to save his own skin. He had to get the Wang family ready, evacuate the remaining members of the family and send them to different places, then activate an emergency plan to preserve their future!

It was a plan known as the Plan of Winter!

That was a plan that could only be activated when the family was in jeopardy.

“I have to live!!”

The man’s eyes reddened.

“You cannot get away!!”

A Wang family’s titled battle pet warrior charged toward Tang Ruyan. He held his spear and he ran with his battle pet.

“Go away!”

Tang Ruyan’s eyes were red and cold. She was furious since the Wang family head was getting away. The fact that the other family had gotten away had put her in a bad mood. She would not allow that one to get away.

Boom!

The sword gave off a glaring radiance. A ray of sword light was swept across.

Sword of Blood!

Bang, bang, bang!!! The pets from the titled warriors were unable to get away; the sword light halved them!

Blood was surging in their wounds and a bloody mist came out. The bloody mist flowed toward her sword which was absorbing the blood.

That titled warrior of the Wang family was thrown away and several people stopped his fall. They were as furious as they were frightened. This girl is a monster!

“Come on. Let’s get into formation. Swamp Land!” one of them said in a hurry. Although shocked all this time, experience kicked in and they were all able to react fast. The other people exchanged eye contact and began to build the formation.

That was not some large-scale formation but a famous one for the Tang family. It was a formation that was a natural enemy for the Shadow Tracing skill of the Tang family, and any accelerating skill for that matter.

Boom_!

Bolts of lightning struck from four corners.

All those people had pets of the thunder family. They placed their pets in four corners; the beasts would serve as the base for the formation.

The battle pets roared as they received their masters’ orders. Lighting bolts rose from their bodies. The titled battle pet warriors directed the lighting bolts toward themselves and in a few seconds, a formation took place and Tang Ruyan was trapped inside.

Tang Ruyan was able to notice the flickering of the lightning bolts in the air, then striking her. Still, they were completely unable to hurt her.

However, she could feel that she was being slowed down when she tried to move forward. Something would be triggered whenever she tried to move, and more bolts of lightning would surround her.

Tang Ruyan had heard about the Wang family’s Swamp Land. People trapped inside would be fine if they remained perfectly still. The faster one moved, the stronger the lightning bolts would be!

When titled battle pet warriors were the ones who supported that formation, they could even keep one at the peak of the titled rank inside!

Not to mention that all those elders of the Wang family were at the peak of the titled rank!

But I don’t think it’s as strong as people say.

Tang Ruyan realized that the lightning strikes were unable to inflict her any harm. If anything, it was just like scratching an itch. So, is this the notorious formation?

What an exaggeration!

She grinned. She took a step forward and turned her sword over.

Bang!

The sword light tore open the sea of lightning bolts around her.

“Oh, Gods…”

One of the titled battle pet warriors was thrown into a panic. He could not believe that Tang Ruyan had been unaffected by that Swamp Land formation!

The man wanted to get away, but he would destroy the formation by doing so!

The ray of red sword light was approaching. He bit his teeth and his pupils dilated. A battle pet ran over from behind him.

Bang!

All of that battle pet’s shielding and armors failed. The sword pierced through the pet on its chest.

Tang Ruyan had seen that old man’s face of sorrow through that hole.

In the meantime, Tang Ruyan was running toward him!

Bang!

She wielded her sword. She cut the remaining battle pet into two pieces. She dashed over the battle pet and made sure that surprise was the last expression that could ever appear on that man’s face.

That man’s head was cut off.

His astral powers escaped. The formation was weakened as he died, and Tang Ruyan was able to gain speed.

“None of you can get out of this alive!” Tang Ruyan declared. She wasn’t a greenhouse flower. She would be training, fighting and killing when she was a kid growing up in the Tang family territory!

She would never show mercy to the ones who tried invading their turf.

“We have… tried our best…” Another titled battle pet warrior of the Wang family died, with all hope lost.

Tang Ruyan was too powerful!

Those titled battle pet warriors were as feeble as if they were only eighth-rank battle pet warriors!

It might seem that it took Tang Ruyan a good while to unleash that slaughter but the fact was that everything happened within less than a minute. Tang Ruyan looked forward; she had lost sight of the Wang family head. She wanted to run but something else came to her mind. She turned around. To her relief, the Tang family’s titled battle pet warriors had recovered their abilities and they were hunting down the enemies who were trying to get away.

Whoosh!

A man approached her. It was Tang Linzhan.

As she stared at that familiar and distant man, Tang Ruyan gave up on the thought of going after the Wang family head.

The redness in her eyes receded. Her hair got back to normal and the black lines on her face faded away, revealing her original beauty.

The father and the daughter pair gazed at each other, but neither said a word.

Tang Linzhan thought he should say something but couldn’t decide to do so.

It had just been half a year since they were last together. And yet, it seemed as if ages had passed.

They were merely one step away from each other. They could touch each other. Still, he felt there was an invisible wall between them!

Father…

Tang Ruyan stared at the majestic man.

She wondered if he would think of her as “qualified” after that.

Soon, she noticed that there was shame in the eyes of a man who had always been dignified and superior.

He was no longer that domineering man she used to know.

For a moment, she was in a daze.

Was he the man she remembered to be so overwhelming, that she would never dare to fight back?

She kept silent.

“I, I am sorry…”

Eventually, Tang Linzhan was the first to talk. But the words he uttered had surprised even himself. He had never said those words before in his life…

Tang Ruyan gazed at him. A moment later, she breathed in relief but felt disappointed

She knew that some things could never go back.

A repaired mirror would still have cracks.

“It’s okay,” Tang Ruyan said coldly, “The family heads of the Situ family and the Wang family have run away. Now that I am here, I will bring an end to this mess. I will go and wipe out their families first before we talk about anything else.”

Even she was unable to believe that she would speak with such indifference. She had never talked to her father like that. But she soon calmed down after saying those things.

Tang Linzhan was surprised.

End this?

Wiping out the two families?

He couldn’t quite describe the feeling he had. Was it fear, or astonishment? “Ruyan, It was my choice to exile you. Don’t hate the Tang family…” he said.

Tang Ruyan cut him off, “I do not hate the Tang family and I do not hate you. If I did, I wouldn’t have come here.” She added, “I don’t think you ever knew me.”

Tang Linzhan was unable to disagree.

She was right.

The fact that Tang Ruyan was there and that he was surprised was proof that he never knew his daughter.

He felt even more sorry. After a while, he finally knew what to say. “The Situ family and the Wang family have powerful heirlooms. Striking them won’t be easy. I know that they are losing at the moment, but the fight would become difficult if we were to strike their home bases. We need to give the matter further thought.”

Whoosh!

Right then, several people joined them.

They were the Tang family’s elders and a girl, Tang Ruyu.

Tang Ruyu looked at her big sister, who was addressing their father coldly.

Tang Ruyan had unleashed strength far superior to what a peak titled ranker could muster. Tang Ruyu found it unfathomable. However, the fact that Tang Ruyan had been able to kill so many titled battle pet warriors was enough reason for her name to be known all over the Subcontinent District.

Was that indeed the big sister who had been a decoy in the past?

Tang Ruyu bit her lip. She was unable to ascertain her feelings.

“My lady!”

“My lady!”

The elders stood behind Tang Linzhan and gazed at Tang Ruyan with respect. Some of them even began to call her “future family head” again. Tang Ruyu turned pale. She lowered her head and clenched her fists.

That should be how they addressed her. But it seemed that she no longer was worthy for that, to contend for that name against Tang Ruyan.

Tang Ruyan pulled an even longer face.

“I know that my surname is Tang but I am not the future family head. I wasn’t, I am not and never will be,” Tang Ruyan said.

The elders knew that Tang Ruyan was still bothered since they had decided against her. It was understandable.

The elders just smiled at her without referring to that matter.

Tang Ruyan was the hope for the Tang family.

The Tang family could be regarded as the most powerful of the four ancient families with Tang Ruyan alone. Maybe in the future, the Tang family would even defeat the other three families and unify them!

What’s not to love about my new life after transmigrating into a Pet-centered world? There are mighty creatures that come in all shapes and sizes. They can either be cuddly companions, helpers in your daily life, daring scouts or strong fighters. Or all of the above. Not bad, huh? I have a family, but the fact is completely overshadowed by my younger sister. She thoroughly hates my guts, and she makes sure that I know this. Every. Single. Day. Did I mention that she’s disgustingly talented while I am a bottom feeder? A terribly handsome one at that. I have free rein to run the family business on my own. A small and quaint Pet Store. It should have been great if not for the fact that the previous owner of this body was born with ZERO affinity to handle Astral Pets… It wouldn’t be a proper transmigration without a gimmick or a system to pave my road to greatness, don’t you think? I have one, but I don’t know if I would be better off without it…
