Everyone held their breath, focusing intently. The Myriad Tribes Sect was finally going to make a move against the Zhuge Family. This was a battle that would establish the power dynamics in the Southern Heaven Realm.
Swish! Swish! Swish! A number of top experts from the Myriad Tribes Sect appeared, floating in the sky. Each of these figures emitted a terrifying aura, descending above the ancestral grounds of the Myriad Tribes Sect.
At this moment, inside the council hall of the ancestral grounds of the Myriad Tribes Sect, it was as silent as death, similar to the blood-soaked land outside illuminated by the blood-red setting sun.
Previously, the three half-step Heaven Venerables of the Zhuge Family were ambushed and killed by various major forces, leaving one dead and another severely injured. Although the injured one's wounds had healed considerably, their combat power was greatly diminished. As a result, the Zhuge Family now had only two half-step Venerables remaining, a great decline for the once-mighty Zhuge Family.
Inside the hall, a group of people with sharp and fierce gazes gathered, their atmosphere incredibly heavy. Each person exuded terrifying killing intent, cold and menacing.
"Elder, what should we do next?"
The head of the Zhuge Family, Zhuge Yao, stared at the leading elder. The elder had white hair and a wrinkled face, looking extremely old.
"What can we do?
Our Zhuge Family is not like the Qingxue Family without a Legacy. Our Zhuge Family descends from the Tianji Sect, inheritors of the Tianji Sect, masters of the path of destiny, watched by many forces in the Heavenly Realm. Our ancestors foresaw this situation long ago and set up measures. If those Myriad Tribes Sect people dare to attack our Zhuge Family, they will surely meet their doom."
The leading elder spoke with a chilling gleam in his eyes, as though half of him had already stepped into the grave, yet his killing intent was incredibly heavy.
The others also had gloomy expressions, their lips curling into cold smiles.
This was originally a secret. Even those at the level of the Grand Elders wouldn't know such confidential information, known only to the ancestors and head of the family.
But now, the Zhuge Family had entered its most critical moment, and many secrets had been revealed, shocking many to learn that their ancestors had long foreseen this day and prepared terrifying measures within the family.
These measures were enough to kill Venerables. Previously, when nearby forces attacked, they didn't use these methods. Now that the Myriad Tribes Sect was attacking, they might not be able to hold them off; their trump cards would have to be revealed.
"The Myriad Tribes Sect's Qin Chen came out alive from the Sword Tomb and falsely accused our ancestor of colluding with the Demon Tribe. His crime is deserving of death. The fall of our ancestor is definitely connected to him. Today, we will ensure that no one from the Myriad Tribes Sect leaves alive."
The leading elder's killing intent was substantial.
"By the way, Zhuge Yao, are the escape routes ready for when the battle breaks out?"
The elder looked at Zhuge Yao.
"Elder, they are ready. The family has selected a hundred young talents and over ten potential strong cultivators, all of whom are the hopes of our Zhuge Family. Once the battle erupts, they will leave through the secret passages we've prepared, preserving the last seeds of our Zhuge Family."
"That's good."
The elder looked up at the Myriad Tribes Sect experts in the boundless void. The terrifying aura permeated down, causing him to sneer.
As long as Qin Chen and his people dared to attack, their death would be imminent. All those who underestimated the Zhuge Family would pay with their lives.
Boom! In the sky, the Lion Tiger Demon Lord and others exuded a murderous aura, transforming into their true forms. The towering figures of the demon tribe, thousands of feet high, descended like gods from the heavens, their momentum overwhelming.
"Sect Master, it's just the Zhuge Family. Let us make the first move."
