"Friends from the Hunhuo family, why have you intruded into our Cangxuan City?"
An old, resonant voice echoed from Cangxuan City, as if a great bell had been struck, deafening and forceful.
It was an elder, one of the masters guarding Cangxuan City. Since Ao Lie had gone to the Wanhua Mountain Range, he naturally wouldn't take all the masters with him. Some had to remain to guard the city against surprise attacks.
But who would have thought that the Hunhuo family would launch a massive assault, their momentum overwhelming?
"Your Cangxuan City has done something good, don't you know?
Let City Lord Ao Lie come out."
The leading figure from the Hunhuo family was an old man with white hair and beard. His entire being exuded a fierce energy, enveloped by a divine rainbow like a god king ruling over the world. His aura was murderous, his gaze fierce, as he stared intently at Cangxuan City below, his killing intent so intense it almost formed an ocean.
Other masters from the Hunhuo family also looked at this elder from the Ao family with murderous intent, as if he were no more than an ant, not a strong Earth Saint.
What audacity.
This elder from the Ao family was named Ao Zun. He had already reached the late stage of Earth Saint thousands of years ago, and was second only to Ao Lie in the Ao family. As the Great Elder of the Ao family, he controlled the great formation of Cangxuan City. Otherwise, Ao Lie wouldn’t have entrusted him with guarding Cangxuan City.
If anyone else dared to belittle the Ao family like this, he would have slapped them to death long ago. But facing the Hunhuo family, he could only endure.
Compared to the Ao family, the Hunhuo family was indeed much more terrifying. They were a major family in Yunzhou. At least in Cangxuan City, there was only Ao Lie as an exceptional Earth Saint, but the Hunhuo family had more than one. The old man before him was one of them.
However, Ao Zun was still confident. Even though the Hunhuo family’s forces were formidable, with exceptional Earth Saint masters, the Ao family had the home advantage, with a defensive formation that even exceptional Earth Saints couldn't easily break. Otherwise, how could Cangxuan City have stood for so long?
Of course, if a fight could be avoided, Ao Zun would not want a conflict with the Hunhuo family at all.
"Sir, don’t overstep. My Ao family in Yunzhou is not to be trifled with, and it's not your Hunhuo family's place to run wild in my Cangxuan City."
Although Ao Zun was puzzled as to why the Hunhuo family was so enraged, he still gritted his teeth and spoke.
Admitting defeat was not an option.
"So, it seems your Ao family insists on opposing my Hunhuo family to the end. In that case, enough talk. Attack, take Cangxuan City first."
The old man from the Hunhuo family snorted coldly, and immediately, a group of strong men behind him charged out. Boom! They all looked up, and various attacks poured down like a torrential rain, shaking the heavens.
"Not good, activate the formation."
Ao Zun didn't expect the Hunhuo family to strike so suddenly. Fortunately, he was prepared and activated the formation the moment the Hunhuo family attacked.
Buzz! A terrifying formation light enveloped the entire Cangxuan City, and immediately, endless attacks rained down, causing a violent roar between heaven and earth, with endless might soaring to the sky and explosions everywhere.
"Lizhou Sun, don't be too excessive."
Ao Zun roared in anger, his heart filled with shock and fury. He couldn’t believe the Hunhuo family would act so directly, tearing the façade completely.
"Excessive?
The heir of my Hunhuo family, Li Dongyu, and the offering Du Luoxin disappeared within your Cangxuan City’s territory. Now, both their soul fires have dissipated, their life and death unknown, and you call me excessive?
If you're smart, have Ao Lie come out and give my Hunhuo family an explanation. Otherwise, today my Hunhuo family will flatten your Cangxuan City.
In this world, the strong are revered. Even if my Hunhuo family were to slaughter your entire Cangxuan City, I’d like to see who in Yunzhou dares say a word against it."
