When the warriors of the Nangong Family attacked Fang Yuanbai at the same time, Fang Yuanbai hurriedly threw out three fiery-red shields. The three shields instantly grew to three feet in size and revolved rapidly to protect Fang Yuanbai.
Soon after, a series of rumbling sounds rang out. Countless attacks struck the three shields at the same time. Only cracking sounds could be heard. The three shields only lasted for less than a breath's time before they shattered into countless pieces in an instant.
The shattering of the three shields caused Fang Yuanbai to spit out a mouthful of blood uncontrollably. An extremely pained expression flashed across his eyes. These three shields were known as the Divine Fire Shields. Fang Yuanbai had spent countless amounts of effort to create them. Furthermore, he had nurtured them with his own Origin Energy all year round. They had long since become existences akin to his Life Treasures. They were incomparably powerful.
If it was in the past, with the Divine Fire Shields in hand, he would be able to unleash great power. Even if he were to fight against the warriors of the Nangong Family, he would not be at a disadvantage for a while. However, this time, Nangong Lie's attack was too sudden. He could not unleash the power of the Divine Fire Shields at all. He could only endure the pain and throw them out to block the attacks. Although the attacks were blocked, the Divine Fire Shields were completely destroyed. Even his heart was injured.
"You are indeed at the peak of the Taixu Stage. This level of sneak attack did not kill you." Nangong Lie sneered.
"Bastards of the Nangong Family, other than sneak attacks, what else do you have? You have been hiding for a year and now you finally dare to show yourself. I have been waiting for a long time! "Fang Yuanbai clenched his teeth and said.
Nangong Lie laughed. "I learned this from you. If it wasn't for the Sikong Family's sneak attack, do you think you could have taken over the Red Flame Palace? Today, I, Nangong Lie, will take back everything that belongs to the Nangong Family! "
"Very well." Fang Yuanbai wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and said, "Do you think you can get out after coming in? Guards! The remaining members of the Nangong Family have appeared! "
Fang Yuanbai shouted the last sentence and his voice spread far and wide. He knew that he couldn't defend against so many people from Nangong Lie on his own, so he could only call for reinforcements.
At the same time, Nangong Lie also made a move. A black and red bead was thrown into the air by Nangong Lie, and then it suddenly exploded. A red cloud instantly appeared above Scarlet Flame City. It was extremely eye-catching. This was the Nangong family's unique hidden weapon, "Raging Flames Burning City". It was an excellent item to use against enemies or to send signals.
Fang Yuanbai's expression changed slightly when he saw Nangong Lie throw out the Raging Flames Burning the City. "You guys really planned this!"
"There's no need to think about it. Even if the Nangong Family was plotted against by the Sikong Family, a starving camel is still bigger than a horse! It's more than enough to deal with a mere branch of the Fang Clan! " Nangong Lie sneered. It wasn't that the Nangong Family didn't have any experts at the pinnacle of the Great Void Realm. It was just that Nangong Lie had left those experts outside to restrain the remaining forces of the Fang Clan. As for the matters in the Scarlet Flame Palace, they were left to handle.
"Stop talking nonsense. It's more important to get the inheritance," Yi Yong shouted in a low voice.
Nangong Lie followed his advice and waved his hand, shouting, "Kill Fang Yuanbai for me!"
A series of shouts resounded and the members of the Nangong Family charged towards Fang Yuanbai. Fang Yuanbai laughed and said, "Let me show you the power of the pinnacle of the Great Void Realm!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a long spear suddenly appeared in Fang Yuanbai's hand. With a sweep of the spear's tip, a raging flame instantly shot out from the tip of the spear. The surrounding temperature suddenly rose rapidly. If an ordinary warrior was here, they might not be able to withstand it. However, the members of the Nangong Family had been dealing with fire since they were young. Yi Yong was also a cultivator of the fire attribute. As for Lu Xuan, he had the protection of the Li Fire Essence. No matter how high the temperature was, it wouldn't affect him much.
"Disperse!" Nangong Lie shouted.
The seven warriors from the Nangong Clan immediately flew forward in unison. Seven swords struck out at the same time, bursting forth with a strange power. In an instant, it was as though all the fire elemental energy in the world was under their control. Fang Yuanbai's seemingly tyrannical attack actually became docile in an instant, and the sea of fire instantly dissipated without a trace.
Although none of the martial artists that Nangong Lie brought in were at the pinnacle of the Great Void Stage, there was no lack of martial artists who practiced joint attacks. With the joint attack of seven martial artists, Fang Yuanbai's attack was easily neutralized.
Fang Yuanbai was shocked when his confident attack failed. However, Nangong Lie wouldn't give him any more time. A powerful wave of Yuan Qi erupted from his body and rushed towards the defenseless Fang Yuanbai. The other warriors didn't stay idle either. One by one, they attacked, completely cutting off Fang Yuanbai's escape route.
A huge fireball rapidly condensed as Nangong Lie rushed forward. It was one of Nangong Lie's powerful killing moves, the Dancing Fire Sun!
In a hurry, Fang Yuanbai didn't have time to defend himself. He could only shout and unleash his strength at the pinnacle of the Great Void Realm without holding back. He thrust his long spear forward, intending to use his own strength to resist Nangong Lie's attack.
However, Nangong Lie's strength was at the ninth level of the Great Void Realm. He wasn't much weaker than Fang Yuanbai. How could Fang Yuanbai block his attack? Although his spear had successfully neutralized a portion of the attack, the remaining force of the attack had still landed squarely on Fang Yuanbai's body. Fang Yuanbai's body was instantly blasted several feet away, and he immediately spat out three mouthfuls of blood.
Nangong Lie sneered, "Playing with fire in front of the Nangong Family is simply asking to be humiliated! If it wasn't for the Sikong Family, your Fang Family wouldn't even have the qualifications to guard the door in front of the Nangong Family. Kill! "
A loud shout was heard as the warriors of the Nangong Family attacked again. However, at this moment, a voice suddenly rang out, "How dare you!"
A figure dashed toward them at high speed and instantly appeared behind Fang Yuanbai. He grabbed Fang Yuanbai's body and dodged the attack from the Nangong Family. Following that, more than ten figures arrived one after another. Looking around, it seemed like there were more warriors on their way.
The person who arrived was Commander Fang, who guarded the gate of the Red Flame Palace, whom Lu Xuan had seen before. The arrival of Commander Fang finally made Fang Yuanbai smile. He looked at Nangong Lie and laughed, "Nangong Lie, since you've walked right into our trap, we can only accept your lowly lives. It's a good opportunity for us to claim credit for the Sikong Family."
Nangong Lie's face didn't show the slightest hint of fear. If these few people wanted to stop him, then this mission would be a complete failure.
"Kill them!" Nangong Lie gave a simple order.
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone from the Nangong Family took out a Raging Flame City Burning Ball and instantly activated the formation within it. Then, they shot it toward Fang Yuanbai and the others.
However, a scene that Nangong Lie didn't expect happened. Commander Fang's figure seemed to suddenly transform into countless clones. The tip of his spear flicked continuously and most of the Nangong Family's Raging Flame City Burning Ball was sent flying into the air. A dense red cloud of flames completely enveloped the sky above the Red Flame Palace. Although the remaining Raging Flame City Burning Ball exploded, the damage caused was limited. It only caused some casualties to the average warriors of the Fang Family.
Nangong Lie's eyes suddenly focused on Commander Fang. He said word by word, "Pinnacle of the Great Void Realm!"
That's right. At this moment, Commander Fang didn't hide his aura at all. The aura of the Pinnacle of the Great Void Realm was released without a doubt. No one expected him to hide so deeply. As an expert at the Pinnacle of the Great Void Realm, he had been guarding the Red Flame Palace all along. Or perhaps … the Fang Family already knew that the Nangong Family would come to the Red Flame Palace to seize the inheritance. Therefore, they purposely hid the existence of an expert at the Pinnacle of the Great Void Realm. Even Yi Yong, an external elder of the Fang Family, didn't know about this.
"Nangong Lie, what do you think of this surprise?" Fang Yuanbai laughed loudly. How could they not know the importance of the Nangong Family's inheritance to the Nangong Family? They didn't even need to take the initiative to find trouble with the Nangong Family. The Nangong Family would walk into the trap sooner or later.
Seeing this, Yi Yong couldn't help but grit his teeth and said, "Envoy, this time, my information was wrong. I put you in danger. I deserve to die. However, even if I have to risk my life, I will definitely send you away safely."
Although there was only one more expert at the Pinnacle of the Great Void Realm, the situation had changed greatly. It was already very difficult for Nangong Lie and the others to defeat the alliance of Fang Yuanbai and Commander Fang, let alone seize the inheritance.
However, Lu Xuan lightly shook his head and said, "Don't panic. Let's see what Brother Nangong has to say."
Lu Xuan didn't believe that Nangong Lie didn't have a backup plan and was completely relying on their information. If that was the case, the Nangong Family would have disappeared long ago.
As expected, although Nangong Lie was very surprised by the appearance of Commander Fang, he didn't lose his composure.
He turned to Lu Xuan and said, "Brother Lu, I'm afraid we will need your help again."
"Just say it."
"Our Nangong Family will hold these two Virtualized Realm experts back, but I'm afraid we will need your help to take back the inheritance. The inheritance is inside the Nangong Family. I have a seal here. This is the token of the Nangong Family's patriarch. As long as you imprint the token on the door that locks the inheritance, you will be able to enter. The inheritance of the Nangong Family is contained in a crystal ball. You only need to bring the crystal ball out. "Nangong Lie clenched his teeth and said.
In reality, he didn't want to trouble Lu Xuan. After all, Lu Xuan had helped him a lot. Plus, this trip was quite dangerous. But now, it wasn't difficult for him to escape unscathed. However, if he couldn't take back the inheritance, then this mission would basically be a failure.
Lu Xuan glanced at the direction of the Nangong Family, then at the seal in Nangong Lie's hand. He accepted the seal and said, "Okay!"
"Envoy, I will go with you." Yi Yong said.
