Fierce Battle

At the Lei Clan Courtyard, Lin Ge led the experts of the Mad Blade Martial Hall and the Lin Clan in surrounding the entire Lei Clan. Everyone gripped a weapon, gazing at the people in the courtyard with killing intent. They waited only for the order to slaughter them all!

Lei Bao's face had turned ashen. A perfectly good wedding banquet had been disrupted by Lin Ge and the others. He was furious, but what little reason he had left told him he must not act rashly. They had clearly come prepared.

"Lei Bao, you should regret it. You should regret not killing me the first chance you had. Otherwise, this night would never have brought your clan's annihilation."

Lin Ge smiled at Lei Bao as he slowly drew the iron sword in his hand.

The moment the iron sword was drawn, a powerful sword intent spread throughout the entire Lei Clan Courtyard. Everyone below the Earth Origin Realm turned deathly pale, their bodies trembling uncontrollably.

"What terrifying sword intent!"

Everyone drew in a sharp breath. None of them had expected Lin Ge to have grown this powerful.

"You think the likes of you can destroy my Lei Clan? What a joke."

Though Lei Bao was astonished by Lin Ge's tremendous increase in strength after half a month, he felt no fear.

After all, the Lei Clan's foundations were far beyond what the Lin Clan could match. Even with the Mad Blade Martial Hall on their side, Lei Bao still had nothing to fear.

"Whether it's a joke or not, we'll find out in battle."

Lin Ge had no interest in trading barbs. All he wanted was to crush the entire Lei Clan with overwhelming force!

"Good. Very good. This old man would like to see what kind of waves the likes of you can stir up."

Lei Bao laughed in his fury, leaping into the air and slamming a palm imbued with thick Yuan power toward Lin Ge.

"Do you think this is still the hunt?"

Facing Lei Bao's mighty palm, Lin Ge scoffed and struck back with a palm of his own.

Their palms collided. The resulting surge of Yuan power sent Lei Bao flying back more than ten meters before he finally managed to stop.

Lin Ge, by contrast, stood utterly still, completely unaffected by the surge of Yuan power.

Seeing their clan leader knocked back with a single palm strike, the Lei Clan members stared in shock, then panic rippled through them.

"Kill!"

Seeing the Lei Clan members begin to panic, a cold glint flashed in Lin Zhentian's eyes. He roared and charged first, punching toward them.

"Hmph! Don't you dare run wild!"

Faced with Lin Zhentian's punch, the Lei Clan members could hardly withstand it. Their faces turned pale.

Xie Qian, standing nearby, knew full well they could not let the Lei Clan be destroyed. Otherwise, the Xie Clan would suffer the same fate, so he had to step in.

"Bang!"

Their fists collided, setting off a violent explosion that sent both men hurtling back dozens of meters. More than a dozen Lei Clan members were caught in the blast.

"Charge!"

After Lin Zhentian struck first, Lin Xiao, Luo Cheng, and the others nearby were not about to fall behind. They surged forward together.

"It's started inside! Let's charge in!"

Hearing the clashes echoing from the Lei Clan Courtyard, Luo Cheng's direct disciple, Wu Yun, shouted and leaped into the courtyard.

Watching Wu Yun charge in so impulsively, Lin Dong could only smile wryly and shake his head. But there was nothing he could say, so he followed close behind and rushed toward the Lei Clan Courtyard.

The Earth Origin Realm experts from the Mad Blade Martial Hall and the Lin Clan behind Lin Dong could no longer contain their eagerness. They charged into the Lei Clan Courtyard together.

In an instant, the Lei Clan Courtyard became a raging battlefield. Explosions rang out again and again, accompanied by endless, anguished cries.

"Lei Bao, at this very moment, do you regret provoking me?"

After easily forcing Lei Bao back once more, Lin Ge gave a light laugh and taunted him.

Lei Bao looked at the Lei Clan members being mercilessly killed in the courtyard. His face grew ashen, and his eyes gradually turned bloodshot, as if he were about to lose control.

The people gathered in the Lei Clan Courtyard were the future pillars of the Lei Clan. Now so many had been killed or wounded. Even if they drove off their enemies, the Lei Clan would need decades to recover. How could that not enrage him?

"Lin Zhentian, Luo Cheng, Lin Ge! I swear you'll pay the heaviest price for this, as an offering to the departed souls of my Lei Clan disciples!"

His furious voice rang through the clouds, shaking everyone present. For a moment, they forgot what they were doing and stared blankly at Lei Bao, the source of the roar.

"What good is anger? You should've thought of that before."

Lin Ge held his sword, his expression calm, paying no mind to Lei Bao's fury.

Lei Bao stared coldly at Lin Ge and slowly drew a dark green jade token from inside his robe.

The token was translucent, glowing faintly green. A large Lei character was carved into its center, surrounded by intricate, mysterious patterns.

"None of you will leave the Lei Clan today!"

After saying this, Lei Bao crushed the token in his hand without hesitation. A thread of green light shot into the sky, blooming like fireworks and forming a huge Lei character.

"Heaven has a path, yet you refuse to take it; hell has no door, yet you barge right in. Lin Zhentian, don't blame us."

Seeing Lei Bao crush the jade token, Xie Qian also took a brown-green token from inside his robe and crushed it hard. A streak of brown-green light shot into the sky, forming a huge Xie character.

Lin Zhentian and Luo Cheng looked grave. They knew the two men had resolved to wipe out everyone from the Lin Clan and the Mad Blade Martial Hall. The hidden Heaven Origin Realm experts were about to emerge.

As if to confirm their suspicion, four exceptionally powerful auras suddenly erupted from the rear mountain of the Lei Clan.

"Just as I thought. The Lei Clan has more than one Heaven Origin Realm expert."

Luo Cheng spoke gravely, though he was not particularly surprised. They had known this already; they had simply lacked proof.

Now, the four powerful auras they sensed confirmed their suspicions.

Just then, three powerful auras erupted from the rear courtyard of the nearby Xie Clan, shocking the Lin Clan and Mad Blade Martial Hall members once more.

"Five Heaven Origin Realm experts from the Lei Clan, plus four from the Xie Clan—that makes nine Heaven Origin Realm experts!"

Lin Xiao's expression turned grave as well. He had expected this, but facing them in person still put him under unimaginable pressure.

"End this quickly! We must finish them all before those reinforcements arrive!"

Lin Zhentian was decisive. Seeing that the enemy reinforcements were on their way, a ruthless look crossed his eyes. He fixed his gaze on Xie Qian, pushed his Yuan power to its limit, then charged at him.

At Lin Zhentian's words, Luo Cheng and Lin Xiao silently nodded. They unleashed their full strength and charged at the Lei Clan members, who were still putting up a stubborn resistance.

Seeing that reinforcements were on the way, the Lei Clan members' panic gradually faded. Their courage slowly returned, and they fought to the death against the Lin Clan and the Mad Blade Martial Hall.

The two sides began their second round of slaughter. The cries of agony continued without pause, and the rumbling grew ever more frequent.
