Chapter 4284: Four Great Families 🌟

Published: January 8, 2025

Because wanting to possess the combat power of a heavenly venerable is too difficult.

This is a symbol of status, a symbol of glory.

Currently, Qin Chen, a disciple of Tian Gong and an earth venerable, unexpectedly erupted with the strength of a heavenly venerable. Even the ancient clans, the Ye Family, and the Jiang Family, were taken aback and shaken internally.

“Hehe, Tian Gong has indeed found a good disciple,” a cold and indifferent laugh suddenly echoed, carrying a tone of disdain and authority, causing the faces of the strong from the Ye Family and Jiang Family to change.

As the strong from the Ye Family and Xiao Clan turned their heads, they saw a group of powerful figures radiating a terrifying ancient clan aura approaching slowly, led by a middle-aged man with sharp, hawk-like eyes.

“Xiao Clan Head!”

Seeing the newcomer, the strong from the Ye Family and Jiang Family hurriedly saluted.

The arrival was none other than the current ruler of the Ancient Realm, the Xiao Clan.

“Ye Family, Jiang Family, quite elegant, aren't you?” the Xiao Clan Head said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, the expressions of the Ye Family and Jiang Family changed. The head of the Ye Family quickly replied with a smile, “Xiao Clan Head, today is the great day for the Ji Family's martial arts recruitment. As one of the four great families of the ancient clan, we naturally care about such events.”

“Indeed, the Ji Family has quite the ambition to hold a martial arts recruitment. This has been a rare spectacle in our Ancient Realm for many years.”

Members of the Jiang Family quickly added.

“Interesting,” the Xiao Clan Head smiled lightly, “It seems the Ji Family believes our Ancient Realm lacks vitality and vigor, and thus deliberately wants to add some liveliness for us, not bad.”

The Xiao Clan Head smiled softly, but a cold light flickered in his eyes.

The Ye Family and Jiang Family exchanged glances, remaining silent but forced smiles; after all, they were merely spectators. If there was to be a move against the Ji Family, it would surely be initiated by the Xiao Clan.

However, the Ye Family and Jiang Family were also pondering.

It was one thing for them to come here to watch the battle, but why had the Xiao Clan come here?

With the Xiao Clan's status, they would act only when necessary, and when they did, it would surely be earth-shattering.

Could it be that the Xiao Clan intended to take action against the Ji Family?

Immediately, the Ye Family and Jiang Family looked at the Xiao Clan Head; behind him, the Great Elder of the Xiao Clan and several powerful figures accompanied him, exuding an extraordinary aura.

This made both families' hearts tremble.

It was likely that some changes were about to occur in the Ancient Realm.

Thus, the heads of the Ye Family and Jiang Family dared not neglect their attention, standing in this void while closely watching the Ji Family, they quickly sent sound transmissions to each other.

At this moment.

In the Ji Family mansion.

On the arena, Qin Chen and Mad Thunder Heavenly Venerable were locked in a fierce battle.

Boom! Thousands of bolts of lightning surged like a vast ocean, roaring endlessly. Mad Thunder Heavenly Venerable grew more alarmed as the battle continued.

For a while, he could not subdue Qin Chen.

How could this be possible?

He was a true heavenly venerable, yet he could not take down a younger generation like Qin Chen, inciting both anger and shock within him.

“Take this! Thunderstorm!”

Boom! Mad Thunder Heavenly Venerable was enraged, his pupils radiating with lightning. Boundless lightning energy gathered in his hands, condensing the power of thunder to the extreme. In this moment, his venerable power surged wildly, imprisoning this void.

Swish! In the void, a towering war hammer appeared, wielding authority over the heavens, and crashed down towards Qin Chen.

As the strike fell, all the light in the void retracted; the violent lightning on this war hammer consumed everything.

This was a terrifying lightning secret technique of the Thunder God Sect, channeling the internal lightning to merge the Heaven Venerable Treasure with the user’s own power, even empowering their blood vitality. This was a unique skill mastered by Mad Thunder Heavenly Venerable.
