"Lord Father, since you already knew of the Golden Silver Villa's intention, why did you still agree to their request?"
After hearing Ximen Hu's words, Ximen Guang came to a sudden realization. However, he was unable to understand why his father would agree to their request despite knowing about the Gold and Silver Villa's scheme.
"We are not the only power in the Eastern Region. If I did not agree to their request, it is very likely that the Gold and Silver Villa would go look for the Sunset Cloud Valley or the Asura Palace. At that time, wouldn't we be in an even more miserable state?" Ximen Hu shouted at Ximen Guang when he saw how slow-witted his son was.
"Then father, what should we do now? Do you think that the Asura Palace will really attack us? "Seeing this, Ximen Guang slowly lowered his head and asked in a timid manner.
"The Asura Palace's development is simply too fast. In just a short few months, they were able to stabilize the surrounding powers and become the overlord of a region. This proves how frightening the Asura Palace is."
"Furthermore, the Asura Palace has already stabilized their position as the overlord of a region. In the Flower Valley, the Sunset Cloud Valley even revealed the matter between our Soaring Tiger Hall and the Gold and Silver Villa."
"Therefore, I feel that the Asura Palace will definitely attack our Soaring Tiger Hall. However, the Asura Palace might not necessarily cooperate with the Sunset Cloud Valley." Hearing Ximen Guang's question, Ximen Hu slowly replied.
"Why? Could it be that the Asura Palace is planning to devour our Soaring Tiger Hall and the Sunset Cloud Valley in one fell swoop? Does they possess such strength? "Ximen Guang's face was filled with disbelief.
"We still do not know about the Asura Palace's background. However, according to our intelligence, not long after the Asura Palace was established, they once activated a defensive formation. That defensive formation was extremely powerful, and I'm afraid it was not the slightest bit weaker than the Sunset Cloud Valley's Sunset Light Great Formation."
"The Sunset Cloud Valley's Sunset Light Great Formation was set up by the first Valley Master when the Sunset Cloud Valley was established. It is said that the Valley Master was a Battle-Emperor."
Ximen Hu slowly narrated the information he had gathered about the Asura Palace, as well as his personal analysis. When he mentioned the Great Defensive Formation, fear surfaced on his face.
"What? Battle-Emperor? That is a peak existence in the entire continent! "
"Lord Father, could it be that you think there's a Battle Emperor expert in the Asura Palace?" Hearing this, Ximen Guang couldn't help but panic.
The term 'Battle Emperor' was too special and too sensitive. Battle Emperors were practically god-like existences in this continent, and those who were able to reach the level of Battle Emperors were all people who could call the wind and summon the rain in the Sky Martial Continent. They were the peak existences.
For someone like Ximen Guang, such a powerful figure was simply too far away. Even so, he could not help but feel a tinge of fear when he thought of this word.
"I don't think so. Otherwise, this Eastern Region would have belonged to the Asura Palace long ago. However, that defensive formation is more than enough to prove that the Asura Palace is not a simple organization. At the very least, they are stronger than our Soaring Tiger Hall." Hearing Ximen Guang's question, Ximen Hu analyzed once again.
"If that's the case, wouldn't my Soaring Tiger Hall be …" Hearing Ximen Hu's words, Ximen Guang's face turned ashen, and despair appeared on his face.
"Not necessarily. Actually, we still have a chance of survival." Seeing this, Ximen Hu replied.
"Lord Father, what do you mean by that?" Hearing his father's words, Ximen Guang's expression changed and he hurriedly asked.
"Sigh, originally, this is something that I did not want to do the most. However, it would seem that this is the only way." Hearing Ximen Guang's question, Ximen Hu slowly turned around and cast his deep gaze in the direction of the Sunset Cloud Valley.
"Lord Father, quickly, tell me." Seeing this, Ximen Guang hurriedly asked again.
"Ally … with … Sunset … Cloud … Valley."
Being questioned by Ximen Guang again and again, Ximen Hu looked in the direction of the Sunset Cloud Valley and slowly spat out those words that he was very unwilling to say.
"What? Ally with the Sunset Cloud Valley? Lord Father, our Soaring Tiger Hall and the Sunset Cloud Valley have been enemies for many years. How could they possibly ally with us? "Hearing Ximen Hu's words, Ximen Guang's face was filled with shock.
"Ask, ask, ask, ask. All you know is to ask. You useless thing, can't you think for yourself?"
"How could I, Ximen Hu, give birth to such a useless son like you?" Faced with Ximen Guang's repeated questioning, Ximen Hu was finally unable to endure it any longer and suddenly exploded.
"Lord Father, I know my wrongs, I know my wrongs!" Seeing that his father had suddenly become angry, Ximen Guang hurriedly knelt on the ground and began to beg for forgiveness. He was deeply afraid that Ximen Hu would attack him.
However, as he looked at Ximen Guang who was kneeling on the ground and begging for forgiveness, Ximen Hu's face was filled with helplessness. Even though Ximen Guang was not someone capable, he was, after all, his biological son.
Right at this moment, an old man suddenly appeared beside Ximen Hu. This old man's strength had actually reached the level of a high level Battle-King.
"Lord Hall Master, everything has been prepared." After the old man appeared, he respectfully said to Ximen Hu.
"Mmm, Protector Liu, I'll leave Guang 'er to you." After the old man appeared, Ximen Hu withdrew his imposing manner from before and spoke with a faint smile.
"Hall Master, please rest assured. This old man will definitely protect Young Hall Master's safety." Seeing this, the old man hurriedly kowtowed and replied.
"Lord Father, I don't want to leave. I want to stay by your side and advance and retreat together with the Soaring Tiger Hall." At this moment, Ximen Guang, who was kneeling on the ground, hurriedly crawled to Ximen Hu's side and begged. At this moment, his eyes were already filled with tears.
* pa *
However, in response to Ximen Guang's begging, Ximen Hu's expression changed. With a sudden wave of his arm, a resounding slap sent Ximen Guang flying several meters away. A red palm print was imprinted on Ximen Guang's face, and a trace of fresh blood flowed out from the corner of his mouth.
"Bastard, do you think that I'm trying to protect your life? I don't want the bloodline of my Ximen Clan to end like this. What you carry on your shoulders is not only my son, but also the revival of my Ximen Clan. Hurry up and scram. "Ximen Hu roared as he looked at the good-for-nothing Ximen Guang.
"Don't worry, Lord Father. I will definitely not disappoint you again." At this moment, Ximen Guang suddenly stood up. After wiping away the trace of blood at the corner of his mouth, he spoke in an indifferent voice. At this moment, an aura that was completely different from before appeared in his eyes.
After saying these words, Ximen Guang stepped into the space under the lead of Protector Liu, leaving Ximen Hu alone.
"Asura Palace, I, Ximen Hu, really want to see exactly how strong you are." At this moment, Ximen Hu suddenly cast his gaze in the direction of the Asura Palace, an incomparably fierce aura radiating from his eyes.
At this moment, this ambitious and ruthless figure of the Eastern Region had finally let go of all his worries. At this moment, he was the most frightening person he had ever been.
However, Xing Jue was completely unaware of what was happening in the Soaring Tiger Hall. At this moment, Xing Jue was leading Li Xiaohan and Su Lin 'er, rushing towards the Ten Thousand Beast Mountain Range.
A violent gale blew past Xing Jue's handsome face, but Xing Jue did not show the slightest bit of fear. On the contrary, a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
For Xing Jue, his goal was not to unify the small Eastern Region, but to become the strongest existence in the entire Towering Sky Region. Instead, he wanted to become the most powerful being in the entire Towering Heaven Realm. Even though he was still very far away from executing the Punishment Executions, unifying the Punishment Executions would allow him to take a step forward.
After traveling for more than ten days, Xing Jue's group of three finally returned to the Ten Thousand Beast Mountain Range. When Xing Jue's group of three entered the Ten Thousand Beast Mountain Range, Lei Lang and Mirage Bear, the two overlords of the Ten Thousand Beast Mountain Range, hastily came forward to welcome them.
Previously, Lei Lang and Mirage Bear had been hiding in their own caves, undergoing endless secluded cultivation. They had already broken through to the Battle-Emperor realm. However, at this moment, they did not have the time to go into secluded cultivation. Instead, they were gathering the strength of their demonic beasts, preparing for the upcoming battle.
Demonic beasts were different from humans. Due to the difference in their species, the special abilities they were born with were also different. Some demonic beasts were proficient in powerful attacks, while others were proficient in defense. Some demonic beasts could even use special skills to cast healing spells.
As long as these demonic beasts were organized and arranged accordingly, the army formed by them would definitely be very terrifying. It was not something that human powerhouses could compare with.
Moreover, when Xing Jue's group of three arrived, Whitey actually joined the camp to train the demonic beasts. What surprised everyone the most was that Whitey actually knew the formation of the demonic beasts.
This caused the Mirage Bear, Lei Lang, and many other King level demonic beasts to revere Whitey to another level. This was because such a formation could only be found in powerful demonic beast clans. Loose beasts like them had only heard of it, but had never seen it before. Now that they could use the legendary formation of the demonic beasts, they were even more delighted to train.
As for the origin of the formation, even Whitey itself did not know. It only knew that when it stepped into the Battle-Emperor realm, it gained these memories.
However, no matter what, Xing Jue could already guess that Whitey was definitely not a simple demonic beast. Although Xing Jue had never seen other demonic beasts, after the incident in the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range, Xing Jue felt that what Xiaolong said was correct. Whitey was probably a special existence even in the Heavenly Spirit Clan.
There was still some time before the great battle. In this Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range, Whitey, Mirage Bear, and Lei Lang were organizing the demonic beasts to carry out the corresponding training and arrangements. As a result, Xing Jue's group of three was quite leisurely.
At this moment, the night sky was filled with the full moon hanging high in the sky. The pale moonlight poured down and shone on a century-old tree in the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range. The faces of Xing Jue, Li Xiaohan, and Su Lin 'er could be clearly seen.
Xing Jue leaned against a thick tree trunk with Li Xiaohan and Su Lin Er in his embrace. He looked at Li Xiaohan and Su Lin Er, who both had their eyes tightly shut but had a peaceful smile on the corner of their mouths. The corner of Xing Jue's mouth involuntarily lifted into an arc of happiness.
Thinking back to when Xing Jue left the Yufeng Pavilion to train, he had laid against the trunk of the tree and the eaves by himself, thinking about his beloved Li Xiaohan. At that time, Xing Jue's goal was very simple. He wanted to become stronger and protect his beloved.
But now, Xing Jue shouldered an even greater responsibility, which was to revitalize the Spirit Eater Clan and take revenge for his father. Although these two matters were extremely difficult to accomplish, they were the responsibilities that Xing Jue shouldered. Furthermore, Xing Jue had the determination to do so and was working hard for it.
