Third Grandfather Song Huaishan said, "Song girl, we are naturally your family. Otherwise, why would our punishment for you be as simple as handing over the Purple Ring? If it were anyone else, we would have eradicated them completely."

"After all, history has shown that descendants of those who fall into becoming demons have a high chance of falling into becoming demons themselves."

They had actually considered killing her.

Her lips trembled, her eyes filled with sorrow and disbelief as she asked, "If I don't hand over the Purple Ring, you'll kill me?"

Facing Song Yiyi's questioning, no one answered, but their actions spoke volumes.

At some point, the elders she called Grandfather had already revealed their Supernatural Abilities.

Their intentions were clear.

If she didn't hand over the Purple Ring, which symbolized the Family Head's identity, she wouldn't be leaving this place.

Song Yiyi's eyes were filled with infinite despair as she choked out, "Why? Wasn't my grandfather good enough to you? Why are you betraying him..."

"Betrayal!" The Second Elder no longer bothered to pretend, revealing a ferocious face. "Song girl, it was he who fell into becoming a demon and betrayed the entire Song Family. What we Song Family members are doing now is merely purging our own."

"You really want to kill me!"

At this moment, Song Yiyi was completely engulfed in despair. She felt so cold, and the world before her eyes seemed so dark.

She stared blankly at everything in front of her, thinking, Grandfather, why did you have to leave first and leave me in this cold, unfamiliar world?

Can you tell me how to move forward in the future?

Jiang Chen naturally didn't know what was happening in the Song Family.

He was eating a delicious dinner, thinking that he should find a suitable time to go with Zhang Banxian to the Song Family and clarify where the Super S-Class demon's main body was sealed.

Then they could find a way to destroy it.

Just as he was about to take a sip of the iced fruit juice he had prepared earlier.

He happened to see the system's refreshed mission and said to Fatty, "Fatty, I have to go. I'll treat next time!"

Saying that, without any explanation, Jiang Chen used Flash Step to leave.

Song Aotian followed closely beside him and asked, "Little Jiang Chen, what happened that you're in such a hurry?"

"It's not me who's in trouble, it's Song Yiyi."

Song Yiyi?

Song Aotian had a question mark in his mind and continued to follow behind Jiang Chen.

Meanwhile, Song Yiyi was pushed to the brink. The battle with her Supernatural Ability armor, Athena, by her side, her battle spear wildly swung at the empty air.

She shouted, "Don't force me!"

"Song Yiyi, hand over the Purple Ring that symbolizes the Family Head, and you'll still be one of our Song Family."

"Dream on! Grandfather entrusted the Song Family to me, not to you."

"You are no longer my elders."

The elders exchanged glances. Led by the Second Elder, he said, "Song Yiyi, since you don't consider us family, we won't be polite either!"

"Activate Supernatural Ability!" The Second Elder, Song Tianshan, spoke first!

Following the lead of the two, the Third Elder also said, "Activate Supernatural Ability!"

With two people taking the lead, the other elders also activated their Supernatural Abilities one after another.

These people attacked Song Yiyi together.

Even with Song Yiyi's high talent, facing attacks from all directions, it would be difficult to dodge them all.

It was impossible to fight so many people alone. At this moment, Song Yiyi had no way to resist their attacks.

She used all her Supernatural Ability to protect herself, preparing for serious injuries.

"Rumble!"

"Crash!"

After the deafening sounds, Song Yiyi didn't feel any pain in her body.

Did I completely block their attacks?

But how is that possible?

These people were all elders of the family. They had enjoyed the family's resources since childhood, and their own strength was not weak.

Even Song Yiyi herself, when at full strength, could only fight to a draw with one elder.

How could she be unharmed?

When the surrounding smoke cleared.

Song Yiyi looked up.

She saw a tall figure blocking in front of her.

Just like her grandfather used to protect her!

Who is this person, and why are they helping me?

Song Yiyi tried hard to get a clear look at the face in front of her.

When she saw it clearly.

Her heart was instantly filled with immense surprise!!!

How could it be him...

Jiang Chen, why is he here?

Judging by the situation, he's the one blocking the elders' attacks.

"Jiang Chen, you..."

At this moment, Song Yiyi had a thousand questions in her heart, wanting to ask but not knowing where to start.

In the end, her myriad words dissolved into silence.

Jiang Chen wasn't doing well at this moment.

He had completely taken the blow from so many powerful individuals for Song Yiyi.

If it weren't for Song Aotian absorbing most of the impact for him.

He would probably be kneeling right now.

The Song Family elders were also very confused by the sudden appearance of a stranger.

Who is this person, and why did he show up?

His appearance was completely beyond their expectations.

When they saw the long sword in front of Jiang Chen, everyone gasped.

They naturally recognized this sword.

This was the sword used by the family's Old Ancestor during his lifetime.

This sword had self-sealed itself after the Old Ancestor's demise.

Why was it appearing here now?

At this moment, a voice caused everyone to kneel.

"Unworthy descendants, actually fighting amongst yourselves for power."

"You are not fit to be members of the Song Family!"

The voice emanated from within the long sword.

It startled everyone unexpectedly.

And the voice carried a powerful pressure that none of them could resist.

Under the oppressive force, all the elders knelt on the ground, unable to muster even a shred of strength to get up.

"Unworthy descendants, each and every one of you is a worry. Is this how the Song Family teaches you!"

Song Aotian, holding the long sword, tapped each of their heads.

Although they were all fifty or sixty years old, with gray hair, appearing like old men.

In Song Aotian's eyes, they were all his juniors.

It was only natural for elders to discipline their juniors.

"Who exactly are you, and how do you possess such immense power!"

Second Elder Song Tianshan asked.

"I am Song Aotian!"

How is this possible!

The Old Ancestor died centuries ago, how could he have come back to life.

"What, you dare to doubt this Old Ancestor!"

Song Aotian heavily tapped the Second Elder's head with the sword.

"In this world, besides me, who else has the right to wield the Aotian Divine Sword!"

As he spoke, the divine sword seemed to respond, emitting a ringing sound!

The sword was entirely golden, emitting a faint glow in the night, covered in mysterious patterns.

Inspiring an inexplicable sense of reverence.

Upon hearing this, the Song Family elders' expressions changed.

They had calculated everything, but they had never accounted for Song Aotian, this variable.

They never expected Song Aotian to have "come back to life" after centuries.

"Old Ancestor, spare us!"

Now that the Old Ancestor has emerged, even a thousand of them wouldn't be a match for Song Aotian.

Song Aotian is a legendary-level powerhouse on this continent.

With their plot to seize the throne exposed, all they could think about was whether they would survive.

Treason was a capital offense!

"Song Family girl, should we kill them or not!"
