You Are Not Worthy to Speak of Him

Although the Thunder Python Sword was immensely powerful, it consumed an enormous amount of origin power.

Unless it was necessary, Tang Tian was unwilling to use it lightly.

Now that the Tang Family's experts had joined in attacking the Lin Family, cultivators above the Organs-Hiding Realm would not be allowed to face him.

With Tang Tian's strength, charging into the Lin Family's ranks of experts was truly like a tiger entering a flock of sheep.

The Lin Family's strongest cultivator was Lin Changdong.

Though a few of the other elders had Early Soul-Emergence Realm cultivation, their aptitude limited them, and their strength was ordinary.

Watching the Lin Family members below fall one after another, blood spraying everywhere, Lin Changdong regretted everything bitterly.

Back then, he should never have allowed Lin Yichen to go to the Tang Family and propose marriage to the Qin Family.

Otherwise, how could such a dispute have arisen, leading to this life-and-death battle?

If this continued, sooner or later, the Lin Family would be left with only him.

Moreover, Lin Changdong knew that he was no match for Tang Lingyun.

If they continued fighting, only defeat and death awaited him.

"Tang Lingyun, are you truly going to be so ruthless?"

Lin Changdong gritted his teeth, the longsword in his hand stabbing repeatedly toward Tang Lingyun's chest.

Yet he did not have the slightest chance to injure his opponent.

Tang Lingyun remained calm. "What, you were the one who spoke of risking your life, and you are also the one calling me ruthless. Are all you Lin Family people this shameless? Since you insist on fighting to the death, I will grant your wish. After today, there will be no more Lin Family!"

Lin Changdong's expression turned extremely ugly upon hearing this. He roared, "Brother Tiande, if the Qin Family saves us, I, Lin, guarantee that the Lin Family will offer one-third of its assets in gratitude."

The more he had once wished to avoid confronting an expert like Tang Lingyun, the more he now had no choice but to face him.

Qin Tiande was greatly tempted by those words, yet Ye Qingyuan stood before him, making him secretly furious.

"Brother Ye, how about you stay out of this matter? Once I join forces with the Lin Family to destroy the Tang Family, I will properly repay you."

Qin Tiande could only promise Ye Qingyuan benefits.

Ye Qingyuan smiled faintly and shook his head. "Brother Qin, say no more. Either you fight me, or you stay put obediently. The matters between the Lin Family and the Tang Family will be settled by themselves. We only need to wait patiently for the outcome."

Wait for the outcome?

What a joke.

With everything happening before their eyes, what was there left to wait for?

The Lin Family had already suffered a severe blow to its morale because of Lin Yichen's death.

Now, after Tang Tian's slaughter, the situation had become even more one-sided.

If they delayed any longer, even if the Qin Family wanted to help, it would be too late.

"Do it!"

Qin Tiande gritted his teeth and decided to take a gamble.

Now that Lin Yichen was dead, the only way for the Qin Family to obtain enormous benefits was to tie itself to the same boat as the Lin Family.

"It seems Brother Tiande has made his decision. Then make your move."

Ye Qingyuan's expression remained calm.

Among the heads of the four great families, he alone seemed detached from worldly affairs, and he was also the most mysterious.

It could be said that although they were both Soul-Emergence Realm experts, no one knew just how powerful Ye Qingyuan truly was.

"Qin Family members, heed my command! Quickly aid the Lin Family and destroy the Tang Family!"

Qin Tiande shouted loudly.

A long saber appeared in his hand, and he was the first to slash toward Ye Qingyuan.

Ye Qingyuan shook his head. "Brother Tiande, why must you do this? Harming others only harms yourself."

"Men die for wealth, birds die for food. The four great families should have had a reckoning long ago."

Cold light flickered in Qin Tiande's eyes as his saber arrived before Ye Qingyuan.

With a wave of his hand, Ye Qingyuan drew a cyan longsword and met the attack.

"A Top-Grade Spirit Artifact?"

Qin Tiande's voice trembled.

Only then did he remember that the head of the family before him might not concern himself with worldly affairs, but he loved artifact forging most of all.

If one could forge artifacts, would one's weapon be poor?

Looking at the saber in his own hand, it was merely a Lower-Grade Spirit Artifact.

Compared to Ye Qingyuan's weapon, it instantly seemed rather shabby.

"Ah!"

At that moment, a miserable scream rang out, drawing Qin Tiande's attention.

"Damn bitch! Yuexi!"

Qin Tiande's eyes nearly split apart as he saw Qin Yuexi pierced through by a snow-white longsword, blood scattering all over the ground.

The one who had attacked was Ye Ruxue.

Since the Qin Family had made its stance clear, there was no need to be polite anymore.

Ye Ruxue had long found Qin Yuexi unpleasant to look at.

Now that she could make a move, how could she possibly show mercy?

"Thank you for making it possible for me to meet him. But you are not worthy to speak of him."

Ye Ruxue said those words in a voice only Qin Yuexi could hear.

Him?

Qin Yuexi's eyes grew unfocused.

As she neared death, Tang Tian's face unexpectedly surfaced in her mind—the arrogant bearing of one who looked down upon all beneath him, his complete disregard for her pride.

It filled her with regret, and with hatred!

"You should reflect on your daughter's death yourself. Since you decided to seek benefits, you must also pay the price. Just now, you insulted my daughter. Sorry, but I am taking your life."

Ye Qingyuan looked at Qin Tiande, coldness flashing in his eyes.

No one could insult his precious daughter.

Not even with a single filthy word!

Qin Tiande's eyes were bloodshot. Beside himself with rage, he roared, "Ye Qingyuan, if you want to kill me, then kill me! Do you think I am afraid of you? What are you pretending to be so lofty for? Go to hell!"

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The long saber slashed several times in succession, carving rifts through the air as Qin Tiande fought Ye Qingyuan desperately.

Ye Qingyuan's expression turned icy.

The longsword in his hand became even sharper, as though he had found the flaw in his opponent's attack, actually evading that terrifying saber force.

If Tang Tian had the time to glance at Ye Qingyuan right now, he would completely understand why Ye Ruxue was so cold.

Like father, like daughter!

When Ye Qingyuan became angry, even his aura turned colder.

Ye Ruxue watched her father fight Qin Tiande, then looked into the distance at Tang Tian, whose entire body was already covered in blood.

Her figure flashed, and she swiftly rushed toward Tang Tian.

Jia Shiming and Xing Zhan stood in the viewing stands like mere passersby, watching the four great families fight in a chaotic battle across the plaza.

"General, the conflict between two families has now expanded into a desperate battle among all four great families. This is truly too chaotic..."

Jia Shiming watched with his heart pounding, terrified that these people would kill until their eyes turned red and spare not even him.

Xing Zhan did not care in the slightest. He waved a hand and said, "What are you afraid of? With me here, nothing will happen to you. As for the four great families fighting, it is merely a small squabble. Starfall City truly ought to have its landscape reshuffled."

Sweat beaded on Jia Shiming's forehead.

He stood obediently and did not dare say another word.

Tang Tian was not a bloodthirsty man, yet he showed no mercy when he struck.

For once one was merciful to an enemy, one merely gave oneself a chance to die.

All this time, why had he desperately raised his cultivation?

To vent his anger?

He also needed to use his own strength to prove to the world that he was not trash!

Tang Tian happened to see Qin Yuexi die, yet he felt no sympathy whatsoever.

When everyone made a choice, they had to take responsibility for themselves.

Tang Tian was deeply moved by Ye Ruxue, yet he could not help worrying as well.

Qin Tiande would surely hate her to the bone...

"Tang Tian, die!"

At that moment, Tang Tian saw a dazzling white flash before his eyes.

A long saber carrying fierce momentum had already arrived before him!
