Hearing this, Su Qingtian and Su Yunqian both looked extremely grim.

Indeed, if the Su Family did not have Su Hongyuan holding down the fort, they truly would not be qualified to contend with the Four Great Families.

Su Qingtian said calmly, "Chen'er, the moment the fighting starts, find a chance to leave."

"Your Third Uncle is already making arrangements. You don't need to worry about anything. Just run. Even if the Su Family is destroyed, as long as you're alive, the Su Family will still exist."

Although Su Qingtian spoke very calmly, his grave expression alone showed how serious this matter was.

It was even almost certain that the Su Family would be destroyed.

Su Chen, meanwhile, was thinking about whether he should simply kill the people from the Four Great Families, and how he would explain it afterward.

My master directly gave me an enlightenment infusion?

That's too absurd.

Even Su Chen felt that it was ridiculous.

He was not worried about Su Qingtian and Su Yunqian's safety. With him there, it would be difficult for them to die even if they wanted to. The only issue was how to explain it.

Su Chen quickly thought of a solution. Smiling, he said, "Father, you're underestimating me. I'm at the peak of the Nascent Soul Realm. With my strength, I'm invincible below the Middle Stage of Deity Transformation."

"Have you never heard that peerless geniuses can kill enemies across realms?"

Su Qingtian immediately froze. With a solemn expression, he asked, "Really?"

Three combatants at the Nascent Soul Stage would clearly have more resistance than two. At the very least, if they had to flee, their chances of survival would be greater.

Su Chen smiled. His figure transformed into a shooting star as he charged toward Li Feichi.

Li Feichi's eyes were filled with disdain. A mere Nascent Soul Realm cultivator actually dared to launch the first attack. He truly had no idea how high the sky was or how deep the earth was.

He raised his hand and attempted to grab Su Chen.

"Since you came knocking on your own, don't blame me for being impolite."

Li Feichi tried to seize Su Chen's fist, but suddenly felt a tremendous force surging toward him. His expression changed abruptly.

"Bang!"

Li Feichi was sent flying horizontally and crashed into the city.

What?!

Everyone present widened their eyes, staring at the scene in disbelief.

Su Chen actually possessed such strength. He had sent Li Feichi flying with a single punch. One had to know that Li Feichi was at the Middle Stage of Deity Transformation, a full major realm and minor realm above Su Chen.

Some geniuses could indeed kill enemies across realms, but that was only across minor realms. Crossing an entire major realm was simply too unreasonable.

Su Qingtian and Su Yunqian widened their eyes, feeling as though they had seen a ghost.

Su Chen was this powerful?

Even Su Yunqian could not have sent Li Feichi flying with a single punch.

Yet Su Chen had done it with ease. What kind of terrifying physical body did he possess?

"Pfft!"

Li Feichi suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood. His punch had been filled with hidden force. If Li Feichi had not reacted quickly, he might even have suffered serious injuries.

"You... why do you possess such strength?!"

Li Feichi raised his head, his voice filled with disbelief. He could not accept the fact that he had been injured by a single punch.

Su Chen said indifferently, "There are plenty of things you haven't seen."

Wang Ming suddenly shouted, "Stop wasting time! Kill them immediately. Don't hold back at all!"

Su Chen's strength had completely thrown him into panic. He was not even nineteen, yet he already possessed strength comparable to the Nascent Soul Stage.

If he were given another two years, would he not break through to the Void Refinement stage directly?

Moreover, the astonishing wealth displayed by the Su Family had made them even more anxious.

Wang Ming's aura at the Late Nascent Soul Stage instantly erupted, and his pressure spread throughout Bright Moon City. The five cultivators from the Nascent Soul Stage of the Wang Family and Yuan Family charged toward Su Qingtian and Su Yunqian.

Li Feichi and He Hongyuan charged toward Su Chen.

The great battle was about to begin.

Su Qingtian's eyes were filled with solemnity. A primordial aura radiated from his body, and his muscles turned crimson.

"Kill!"

Two against five. There was practically no suspense. After only a few exchanges, Su Qingtian and Su Yunqian were already retreating step by step.

"Don't get entangled with them. Run the moment you find a chance."

Su Qingtian spoke in a low voice.

Wang Ming said coldly, "No one can save you today."

He raised his hand and flung several stones forward. Mysterious symbols were carved into their surfaces, flashing with light.

Array stones!

These stones generally had arrays carved into them. Just like the Four Symbols Array, they could be taken out directly whenever they were needed.

Wang Ming formed the array very quickly. By the time Su Qingtian reacted, the array had already completely surrounded them.

"Damn it!"

Su Qingtian cursed under his breath, his expression turning extremely grim.

Wang Ming laughed loudly. "Hahaha, this array is a Mysterious Grade Intermediate killing array. I paid a tremendous price to kill you!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he manipulated the array. A huge saber suddenly charged toward Su Qingtian.

The saber was an illusion formed by the array, but it possessed the power to kill cultivators at the Nascent Soul Stage.

Su Qingtian barely dodged it, but the saber swiftly turned and struck toward Su Yunqian.

His strength was only at the early stage of the Nascent Soul Stage. The saber moved extremely quickly, and he could not dodge it at all. He could only struggle to defend himself.

"Pfft!"

The saber pierced through his defenses and struck toward Su Yunqian's forehead.

"I'll help you!"

Su Qingtian's aura surged to its limit. He dispersed the saber with a single punch, allowing Su Yunqian to escape disaster.

Seeing this, Wang Ming's eyes filled with coldness. "It's not over yet."

Three weapons immediately appeared within the grand array: a saber, a sword, and a spear.

At the same time, the Nascent Soul Stage cultivators from the Yuan Family and Wang Family also entered the array, joining forces with it to attack the two men.

"We're finished!"

Su Qingtian's face was filled with bitterness. The Four Great Families had prepared long ago, leaving him overwhelmed by a sense of powerlessness.

With five Nascent Soul Stage cultivators joining forces and this formidable array on top of that, they would probably die here today.

Thinking this, Su Qingtian hurriedly shouted, "Chen'er, run! Don't worry about us!"

But soon, he froze slightly.

What am I seeing?!

Within his line of sight, Su Chen was suppressing He Hongyuan and Li Feichi as he fought them.

Su Chen's strength is this outrageous?

Both of them were at the Middle Stage of Deity Transformation!

It would already be absurd for a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator like you to contend with one of them. How can you fight both at once?

He Hongyuan shouted, "Patriarch Wang, quickly kill those two! There's something strange about this brat's strength."

Seeing that the two of them could not take down Su Chen, Wang Ming subconsciously roared, "Useless!"

He Hongyuan was furious. Come and fight him yourself, then!

Su Chen was too fast, and his physical body was incomparably powerful. The moment He Hongyuan was about to cast a spell, Su Chen had already appeared right in front of his face.

If they competed in physical strength, they could only take a beating.

It was truly too frustrating.

Moreover, He Hongyuan always felt that Su Chen was toying with them.

Wang Ming withdrew his gaze and looked toward Su Qingtian and Su Yunqian again. He said coldly, "Kill them quickly."

He Hongyuan and Li Feichi could not even defeat Su Chen, which made him somewhat irritated. He even began to suspect that the two had colluded with the Su Family.

The Four Great Families were only temporary allies to begin with. Once the Su Family was destroyed, they would return to their former open and covert struggles.

Originally, he had wanted to kill the two without suffering any injuries. Now, it seemed somewhat impossible.

Even a cornered rabbit would bite, let alone two cultivators at the Nascent Soul Stage. If they truly fought to the death, someone would inevitably be injured, and that might give the other families an opportunity to take advantage.

Even if the people of Bright Moon City did not act, there would be others who wanted to make a move.

Bright Moon City was such a huge piece of cake, and quite a few people had their eyes on it.

"Pfft!"

The sword struck toward Su Qingtian. Unable to dodge in time, Su Qingtian's arm was immediately slashed open, and blood flowed out.
