Right then, another group of cultivators walked over from outside the hall. Among them were Beiming Ao and some other Beiming clansmen.
“Little brother?”
Beiming Xue frowned slightly. “Didn’t I ask you guys to leave as soon as possible? Why are you back again?”
When Beiming Ao saw that Beiming Xue was a little angered, he explained hurriedly, “We wanted to leave initially, but we didn’t walk far before we were assaulted by some cultivators of the Ximen and Dongfang aristocratic families. Thankfully, experts of the Nangong aristocratic family arrived and saved us.”
The Beiming clan leader nodded as well. “If that wasn’t the case, the Beiming clan would have been annihilated, sigh!”
Beiming Xue was secretly shocked.
To think that after the Dongfang and Ximen aristocratic families learned of the secret of the Beiming clan, they did not hesitate at all and wanted to annihilate the Beiming clan completely!
“Thank you, seniors of the Nangong aristocratic family,”
Beiming Xue bowed deeply to Nangong Li and the others.
She also knew that the reason why the Nangong aristocratic family was willing to step in was because of her master.
Even so, it was a huge favor.
“Well said, well said!”
Nangong Li smiled gently. “Girl, get up. There’s no need to stand on courtesy.”
When he saw Beiming Xue bow over, Nangong Ling dodged hurriedly. Although his cultivation was higher than Beiming Xue, in terms of seniority, it was clear—he could not afford to have Beiming Xue bow to him.
Su Zimo’s expression softened as well.
“Nangong Li, as the master of the Nangong family, you’re actually helping these b*stard survivors of the Beiming aristocratic family. Does the Grand Elder of your Nangong family know about this?!”
Elder Life Severing asked slowly.
“Of course I know,”
Right then, an old man with a dragon head walking stick walked in slowly—it was the Half-Martial Ancestor expert of the Nangong aristocratic family, Elder Lan Tian!
“Lan Tian!”
The old lady hollered with a vicious expression, “What’s the meaning of this! Desolate Martial has already released all his trump cards. As long as the three of us join forces, we’ll be able to suppress him!”
“At that time, our three aristocratic families can split the primordial divine spring evenly! Why not?!”
Elder Lan Tian shook his head gently and sighed. “Life Severing, Silver Hoop, stop.”
“Stop?”
The old lady shrieked, “How many people did that lad, Desolate Martial, kill from our two aristocratic families? There are already 30 Conjoint Body Mighty Figures that died in his hands today! You want us to stop?”
“Since Desolate Martial chose to wage war against our two aristocratic families, he can dream about leaving the South Region alive!”
Elder Life Severing had a cold expression as he exchanged glances with the old lady. “Let’s go!”
The two of them had already made up their minds to leave this place and rush back to their families to invite the other Half-Martial Ancestor experts in their families!
According to their calculations, if there were five Half-Martial Ancestors, it would be enough to kill Desolate Martial!
“Who gave you permission to leave?”
Right then, Su Zimo suddenly said something. His tone was calm but there was a cold killing intent!
The old lady and Elder Life Severing froze for a moment.
Immediately, a mocking look flashed through their eyes.
“Fufu,”
Elder Life Severing could not help but laugh and shake his head. “Why? You still want to stop us? I’ll admit that you were indeed strong enough to challenge us the moment you advanced to the Conjoint Body realm. However, you must be dreaming if you think that you can stand in the way of our departure!”
This time round, even Elder Lan Tian agreed with Elder Life Severing.
In his opinion, Su Zimo’s combat strength was similar to the two half-Martial Ancestors and neither could do anything to the other.
If the two of them wanted to leave, Su Zimo could not stop them either!
However, Elder Lan Tian’s identity was unique and he could not wage war against the Half-Martial Ancestors of the Dongfang and Ximen aristocratic families easily. Otherwise, if the situation escalated continuously, there was a high chance that a massive battle between the aristocratic families would break out and the consequences would be unimaginable!
“You guys can leave if you want to,”
Su Zimo said indifferently, “However, the two of you have to swear in front of me that you will not take revenge on the Beiming clan in the future! If you break that oath, the heavens will smite you!”
“Haha!”
Elder Life Severing was so angry that he broke into laughter instead. “You actually want us to make an oath for you?”
“Kid Desolate Martial, who do you think you are?”
The old lady could not hold it in either and cursed, “You weren’t even born when we became famous. Are you even worthy of us making an oath?”
The two Half-Martial Ancestors had lived for so long and had never received such treatment.
To them, Su Zimo’s words were an insult!
Neither of them realized that Su Zimo was truly giving them a chance to survive—a choice.
“Since you guys refuse to swear an oath, don’t leave.”
In a flash, Su Zimo charged towards Elder Life Severing and the old lady.
“Let’s go!”
Elder Life Severing and the old lady did not wish to be entangled with Su Zimo. Both of them hollered and turned to speed out of the hall!
All of a sudden!
A shuddering killing intent descended and the temperature in the hall plummeted.
Even the two half-Martial Ancestors felt a sense of danger!
Elder Life Severing and the old lady looked behind them as they sped forward.
That single look revealed an incomparably shocking scene!
Tsk! Tsk! Tsk!
Su Zimo conjured a sword art with both hands and suddenly, blinding sword qi burst forth from his body in a flurry of thousands!
Both the Half-Martial Ancestors were shocked and their pupils constricted!
Heaven Slaying Sword Qi!
The Heaven Slaying Sword Qi enveloped every single point of sight!
Although the Heaven Slaying Sword Qi was extremely powerful, it could not injure a Half-Martial Ancestor who had comprehended a trace of divine power.
However, the Heaven Slaying Sword Qi released by Su Zimo’s attack was not one or two, nor was it a thousand—it was thousands!
The Heaven Slaying Sword Qi shook the heavens and earth, almost slicing the void into pieces and cutting off the escape paths of the two half-Martial Ancestors!
Elder Life Severing and the old lady felt their eyes sting and tears flowed uncontrollably.
Not to mention them, even Elder Lan Tian who was outside the battlefield was shocked and retreated instinctively, afraid that he would be embroiled in it.
The thousands of Heaven Slaying Sword Qi almost released a destructive might!
Clang! Clang! Clang!
The old lady and Elder Life Severing were still fighting with their full strength. Controlling their Destiny Dharmic Weapons, they released countless talismans and trump cards to defend against the incoming sword qi.
However, there were way too many sword qi that almost formed a sword sea that created raging tides and devoured the two of them!
Poof! Poof! Poof!
A blood mist spewed out.
At that moment, the two family masters, Dongfang Xuan and Ximen Tao, were curled up in a corner, completely dumbfounded. They had frightened expressions and their bodies were trembling slightly—they no longer had the bearing of aristocratic family masters.
The two family masters finally realized how terrifying Desolate Martial was!
That fear would accompany them for life like a nightmare that could never be forgotten.
Thud! Thud!
Two bloodied figures fell from midair to the ground with weak auras. Their bodies were sliced countless times by the Heaven Slaying Sword Qi and their flesh were mangled beyond recognition.
Half-Martial Ancestors were indeed powerful with immense vitality.
Even after being minced by thousands of Heaven Slaying Sword Qi, they did not die immediately despite receiving such serious injuries and were still hanging on with a single breath.
Of course, their consciousnesses were already shattered and pierced by the sword qi.
Even their Essence Spirits were injured by the sword qi—there was no way they could survive.
