Lu Xuan glanced at the two sides who were locked in a stalemate, then quickly turned around and left without hesitation. On the surface, it seemed that the Fang clan, which had two Grand Void Stage cultivators at the pinnacle of the Taixu Stage, had the upper hand over the Nangong clan. However, since Nangong Lie was so calm, it meant that he was not completely defenseless. As such, Lu Xuan was not worried about them at all. His top priority was to get his hands on the Nangong clan's inheritance.
"Envoy, follow me!" Yi Yong led the way. In terms of familiarity with the Red Flame Palace, Lu Xuan was not as familiar as him. It would be much more convenient with him leading the way.
Fang Yuanbai looked at Lu Xuan and sneered, "You're still thinking of getting the inheritance at a time like this? You're courting death! "
Fang Yuanbai took to the air as soon as he finished, heading straight for Lu Xuan. However, at the same time, a figure took to the air and swung a sword. Boundless flames instantly blocked Fang Yuanbai's way.
"You'll have to get through me first before you leave!" Nangong Lie said coldly.
"Do you really think you can stop me?" A murderous look flashed across Fang Yuanbai's face as he smashed his spear down. However, Nangong Lie was not afraid at all. The tip of his sword trembled and a powerful force burst forth, forcefully blocking Fang Yuanbai's attack.
One was at the peak of the Grand Void Realm while the other was only at the ninth level of the Grand Void Realm. However, they were evenly matched! Although Fang Yuanbai had suffered some injuries, Nangong Lie had actually blocked his attack by himself. This had greatly surprised Fang Yuanbai.
Nangong Lie laughed loudly, "The Fang family only has such a weak foundation. Do you really think that you can compare to the Nangong family just because you have the support of the Sikong family? You're dreaming."
Fang Yuanbai's face darkened. Although his cultivation level was one level higher than Nangong Lie's, the purity of his Yuan Qi could not be compared to Nangong Lie's. This was why the Nangong family could resist him with only the ninth level of the Grand Void Realm. The strength of an ancient family was reflected in many aspects. It was not just a small force.
At this moment, the warriors of the Nangong family took out their trump cards and charged toward the Fang family's reinforcements. Seven warriors at the intermediate stage of the Grand Void Realm and three in the advanced stage of the Grand Void Realm surrounded Fang Yuanbai. They did not want to win, but only wanted to avoid mistakes. They only wanted to trap Fang Yuanbai and not give him any chance to help.
At this moment, the difference in strength between the warriors of the Nangong Family and the Fang Family was evident. Every warrior of the Nangong Family was fighting one against two or even three. The warriors that were brought in by Nangong Lie were indeed very strong.
Seeing that Lu Xuan and Yi Yong were nowhere to be seen, Fang Yuanbai panicked. If Lu Xuan were to really take away the lineage, the Fang Clan would undoubtedly lose this battle! Although the battlefield was on the East Palace's side, the real deciding factor was the inheritance on the Nangong family's side.
"Guards! Men, come! Stop Nangong Lie! " Fang Yuanbai shouted angrily. Of course, Fang Yuanbai was not afraid of fighting Nangong Lie head-on. However, he was in a hurry to stop Lu Xuan and did not have the mood to fight Nangong Lie.
Without needing Fang Yuanbai to say anything, the warriors of the Fang family had already come to help. Although the warriors of the Fang family were not as strong as the Nangong family, the Red Flame City was under the Fang family's rule. Their numbers were far more than Nangong Lie's group.
"Burning Heaven Seal!" Nangong Lie shouted angrily. With a wave of his hand, a Raging Flame Seal instantly condensed and pressed down on the group of Fang Family warriors. The menacing group of warriors was immediately scattered and fell to the ground.
However, Fang Yuanbai did not want to be entangled with Nangong Lie. He kept his spear and quickly turned to leave. He shouted, "Commander Fang, you guys hold on for a while. I will come back to help you after I finish off those two."
Seeing that Fang Yuanbai was leaving so decisively, Nangong Lie gritted his teeth and shouted, "Where are you going! Stay! "
Nangong Lie activated his elemental energy without holding back. His body instantly pierced through the air, and countless raging flames gathered from all directions. As his longsword slashed down, the endless raging flames rushed towards Fang Yuanbai's body at the same time, sealing off all his escape routes. This move was called the Eight Directional Raging Flames Kill. Apart from fighting, there was no way to dodge it.
However, this time, Fang Yuanbai's choice was beyond Nangong Lie's flames. He was determined to leave. With a sweep of his spear, he broke through four of Nangong Lie's flames and used his body to resist the remaining four flames!
"Puff!" Fang Yuanbai suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood. With the help of the impact, his body quickly floated into the distance. A vicious voice sounded, "Nangong Lie, I will remember this. When I return, I will pay you back tenfold!"
"Oh no!" Nangong Lie wanted to chase after him, but the warriors of the Fang family had already surrounded him again. One by one, they pounced on Nangong Lie without any regard for their own safety. One by one, they used their strongest moves. Even if it meant risking their lives, they had to delay Nangong Lie here.
Seeing this, Nangong Lie was unable to restrain his anger. He roared, "All of you, die!"
With a sweep of his long sword, a huge force erupted with raging flames, repelling the crowd again. However, Fang Yuanbai's figure had already disappeared. Now, even if Nangong Lie chased after him, it would be too late. Instead, it might lead to the defeat of the battle here. Although he was unwilling, he could only place all his hopes on Lu Xuan. After all, he knew that Lu Xuan's strength was not as simple as it seemed on the surface. Fang Yuanbai had rushed over rashly, and even suffered serious injuries … he might not be able to gain any benefits.
However, because of his own personal affairs, he had caused Lu Xuan to repeatedly put himself in danger. The nameless fire in Nangong Lie's heart was burning fiercely. Seeing more and more warriors of the Fang family rushing towards him fearlessly, Nangong Lie finally exploded. He roared, "Since you all want to die, I will fulfill your wish!"
Before he finished speaking, Nangong Lie suddenly dove towards the ground and stabbed his longsword into an empty space. At this moment, the color of heaven and earth suddenly changed. Countless purple flames instantly rose from the ground into the sky. In an instant, the area within a radius of several hundred feet was completely enveloped by the flames.
"Heaven-burning Purple Flame Array!"
Following Nangong Lie's roar, all the warriors of the Fang family who were trapped in the array changed their expressions. Even Commander Fang, who was surrounded by ten warriors of the Nangong family, was extremely shocked. Nangong Lie's action was undoubtedly announcing to them that the Red Flame Palace was the home ground of the Nangong family!
The Red Flame Palace had been run by the Nangong family for so many years. How could it not have a lot of defenses? Previously, because the retreat was too hasty, many things were not put to use. However, today, Nangong Lie could finally use the power of the Red Flame Palace. The Heaven-burning Purple Flame Array buried under the East Palace was one of them.
