"Tang Linzhan, are you willing to surrender to the Situ family?"
Seeing Tang Linzhan holding the Fantasy Ocean God Umbrella, the Situ Family Patriarch's eyes flashed with fear. He was afraid of the divine umbrella in Tang Linzhan's hand.
The umbrella had killed two beast kings in a row. The family head of the Situ family had to be afraid of it.
However, the umbrella was dim and tattered at the moment. It must have consumed a lot of energy.
"Surrender?"
Tang Linzhan was panting slightly. When he heard this, he slowly straightened his body. The tiredness on his face disappeared and was replaced by a murderous look. "Do you think the Situ family is worthy of me?!"
"Hmm, since you're in such a hurry to die, I will satisfy you."
The family head of the Situ family sneered. He looked past Tang Linzhan to the titled battle pet warriors of the Tang family behind him. They were all sitting on the ground, trying to stand up. Maybe it was because of their injuries or other reasons, but even standing up was strenuous for them. Only the titled battle pet warriors of other families who had come to help the Tang family stood up at once.
"Under the suppression of my secret weapon, anyone with the bloodline of the Tang Family will face the Legendary Space Shackles. Under such circumstances, do you still want to continue courting death?"
The family head of the Situ family said coldly, "Those who are willing to surrender can sit down. The Tang family is finished. Do you still want to follow this stupid family head who injured himself while cultivating?"
"Shut up!"
"Don't you dare insult the family head of the Tang family!!"
Some of the family elders bellowed. They had been struggling, but at the moment, they were able to stand up. They bit their gums so hard that they were bleeding.
The titled battle pet warriors of the Tang family who were too injured to stand up were enraged by the Situ family head's words. They roared and struggled to stand up.
"The Tang family would rather die standing than live sitting down!!"
An old woman of the Tang family shouted. One of her arms had been cut off in the previous battle and her robe was stained with blood. Still, she was able to stand up with the help of others. She glared at the family heads of the Situ family and the Wang family.
"Hmph, you're courting death!"
The family head of the Wang family snorted and waved his hand. The several titled battle pet warriors behind him dashed toward the many titled battle pet warriors of the Tang family.
Puchi!
An arrow pierced through a titled battle pet warrior of the Tang family.
The arrow pierced a hole in the chest of the Tang family's titled battle pet warrior. His defensive treasures were also pierced through. The arrow was indeed powerful.
With a plop, the titled battle pet warrior of the Tang family fell to the ground in disbelief. He never thought that he would be killed so easily.
The other titled battle pet warriors of the Tang family were enraged. They couldn't even move because of the Space Constraint. They were no different from wooden dummies when fighting against other titled battle pet warriors!
"Die!"
A titled battle pet warrior from the Situ family rushed to a titled battle pet warrior from the Tang family and slashed at him.
The titled battle pet warrior from the Tang family was infuriated. He tried to move but failed. He summoned his battle pet at once.
Roar!
A roar was heard. But the next second, the roaring figure fell to the ground. It was also unable to move because of the Space Constraint.
That Space Constraint was designed to deal with people with the Tang family bloodline. The Tang family's battle pets were also affected by the Space Constraint.
The sword cut the head of the titled battle pet warrior from the Tang family in half.
Roar!!
The fallen beast looked up with bloodshot eyes. It was about to lose its mind.
But the next second, the contract in its mind disappeared. All of a sudden, the beast seemed to be in a daze. Even so, tears of blood were pouring out from its eyes.
It didn't know why it was angry.
It didn't know why it was crying!
The beast sat on the ground in a daze, staring at the short human who had fallen to the ground.
Bang! Bang!
The titled battle pet warriors from the Situ family and the Wang family took action. One after another, the titled battle pet warriors of the Tang family were killed.
Soon, some of the titled battle pet warriors from the Tang family sat down with fear on their faces. The only thing they could do was beg the titled battle pet warriors from the Situ family and the Wang family.
Roar!!
Right then, several titled battle pet warriors who had come to reinforce the Tang family stepped out. They were not affected by the Space Constraint. They were not from the Tang family and did not have the bloodline of the Tang family.
The titled battle pet warriors from the Situ family and the Wang family were blocked by the Space Constraint.
"Hmm, you outsiders. Do you really want to die for the Tang family?"
In the distance, the family head of the Situ family squinted his eyes and sneered.
"The family head of the Tang family has done me a favor. I will repay him with my life!" One of the titled battle pet warriors stepped out. His eyes were filled with killing intent.
"Yes, we may die, but we will have no regrets!"
Another titled battle pet warrior stepped out. He was just as determined.
They had stood their ground and had no intention of retreating!
Death?
They were afraid.
But they were more afraid of doing something that they would regret for the rest of their lives.
Some favors and some people had to be repaid even if they had to sacrifice everything!
The titled battle pet warriors from the Tang family wore complicated expressions after hearing the words of the other titled battle pet warriors. Those from the Tang family were ashamed. They lowered their heads, afraid to look at the world again.
Tang Linzhan was trembling. One after another, the titled battle pet warriors from the Tang family were killed. Those were the ones who had been with him, the ones who had stayed by his side, and the ones who had protected the great foundation of the Tang family for him.
Some of them were going to celebrate their grandsons' birthday.
Some of them were going to attend their sons' weddings.
All of them had fallen. They were dead.
Even titled battle pet warriors were as fragile as flowers that could wither easily.
Tang Linzhan's hand was trembling. He was angry, in pain, but more than that, he was powerless.
He had seen through the situation right away. That was why he was desperate.
"Tang Linzhan, if you are willing to kneel down and admit defeat, I can consider letting go of those who are here to help the Tang family." The family head of the Wang family stepped out and glared at Tang Linzhan.
Tang Linzhan trembled. He wanted to grab the umbrella, charge forward, shout, and vent his anger.
But he stopped himself. He knew that doing so would only lead to a war and no one would be able to survive.
"Sir, you can't!"
"We don't belong to the Tang family but we are willing to live and die with the Tang family!"
"Sir, we are here and we are ready to die!"
Seven or eight titled battle pet warriors shouted. They summoned their battle pets and stood in front of the other titled battle pet warriors from the Tang family, confronting the titled battle pet warriors from the Situ family and the Wang family.
However, in terms of quantity, the two sides were clearly not proportional.
There were forty to fifty titled battle pet warriors from the Situ family and the Wang family!
The titled battle pet warriors alone had surrounded the area. Once the battle broke out, the titled battle pet warriors would be overwhelmed. They might be able to fight back and inflict some damage, but the damage would be limited.
Tang Linzhan looked around. The morning light shone on his face. It was warm but his heart was cold.
How could light bring true warmth when there was no hope in sight?
All he saw was darkness.
It was as dark as the black armor worn by the titled battle pet warriors from the Situ family and the Wang family.
It was so depressing that he found it hard to breathe.
Tang Linzhan trembled. Eventually, he lowered his head.
He bent his back and moved his legs. One of his legs was bent and he was on one knee!
"Sir!!"
"No!!!"
All the titled battle pet warriors from the Tang family, including the other advanced battle pet warriors from the Tang family and the other titled battle pet warriors who had come as reinforcements, were shouting in anger. Some even burst into tears.
How could the pillar of the Tang family, who had been in charge of the Tang family for more than twenty years, who was feared by all parties, kneel?!
"Father!!"
Tang Ruyu's face was ghastly pale. She no longer called Tang Linzhan "father".
That was one of the few times she had addressed Tang Linzhan that way in public.
She used to call him that when she was little but she was warned against it.
"He is my father. Why can't I call him father?"
"That is the family rule!"
She compromised after several times of stubbornness and severe punishment. She never called him that again.
But at that moment, the strong sadness and anger made her forget the family rule that she had memorized since she was a child.
Tang Linzhan didn't look back. Instead, he knelt down with his other bent leg. Both of his legs were on his knees!
At this moment, all the shouts stopped.
Only the man on his knees remained.
Amid the silent despair, Tang Linzhan opened his mouth. He seemed to be talking to both the Wang family head and the people behind him. He lowered his head and said in a deep and heavy voice, "I'm not kneeling because you're powerful. I'm kneeling because of them."
The Wang family head couldn't help but smile. "I know. Of course I know. But people will only see you kneeling right now. Who will know why you're kneeling?"
He waved his hand. A titled battle pet warrior stepped out with a device in his hand. On the device was the image of Tang Linzhan kneeling on his knees.
Tang Linzhan abruptly raised his head at the words of the Wang Family Patriarch. His eyes, which had been dull before, were now filled with a frenzied killing intent.
"Hmm, there is a video of you kneeling. When you're all dead, the Tang family's properties will be taken over smoothly. After all, even you have knelt and surrendered. How can the others resist?"
The Wang family head chuckled and put away the device.
Bang!
Tang Linzhan stood up all of a sudden. He dashed toward the Wang family head, trying to snatch the device.
However, the two titled battle pet warriors were faster than him. They waved their arms and smashed Tang Linzhan away.
It was already difficult for Tang Linzhan to move under the suppression of the device. The two titled battle pet warriors defeated him easily.
"Listen up. Kill all the members of the Tang family!"
"Those who are here to help the Tang family will do the same!"
The leader of the Wang family ordered with a cold smile.
The Situ family head was smiling as well. The Wang family head thought that he could save someone's life by kneeling? How naive. A dying man's kneeling was meaningless to the Situ family. They didn't need that to satisfy themselves. All they wanted was the foundation of the Tang family. Everything else was meaningless.
"Sir!"
The two titled battle pet warriors who were here to help the Tang family caught Tang Linzhan.
Tang Linzhan was gasping for breath. His face was red and his eyes were filled with hatred.
"That's the future family head of the Tang family. Father, can you give her to me to play with for a few days?"
A young man stepped out from the crowd. Standing next to him was a ferocious creature that was four or five meters tall. That was a pet of the demon family. None of its limbs could be seen clearly. Its black hair covered its entire body like a waterfall. At the moment, only its long and sharp mouth could be seen, as if it were eager to eat.
Tang Ruyu was enraged.
She knew that the young man was the future family head of the Situ family.
The latter was only at the seventh rank and was no match for her. However, she had been suppressed by that strange force. She couldn't even stand up. She was at the mercy of the young man.
"Don't meddle. Just kill her," the Situ family head said with a frown.
He wanted to give the device to his son, but he didn't want to complicate matters with the Wang family.
Hearing this, the young man felt a little regretful and could only say, "What a pity. However, destroying beauties is also my favorite thing."
He didn't do anything but the demon pet suddenly grinned and dashed toward Tang Ruyu like a cloud of dark mist.
Tang Ruyu stepped back in a hurry. She felt she was in a swamp and it was difficult for her to move. On the other hand, the demon pet was so fast that it had reached her in the blink of an eye.
"I can't die!!"
Tang Ruyu was filled with despair. She was unwilling to give up.
She wanted to lead the Tang family to become the most powerful family of the Subcontinent District.
She wanted to reach the legendary rank!
She wanted to see the world outside the Blue Star.
She wanted to …
She wanted to do so much.
She had so many dreams that she had yet to fulfill.
Was she going to die here?
Was she going to die in the hands of this piece of garbage?
Pff!
The demon pet opened its mouth and bit. Tang Ruyu's vision was swallowed up and everything turned dark.
However, the next second, a crack appeared in the darkness. Then, blood gushed out.
The demon pet in front of her was split open.
It was split in half from the middle!
Black smoke was rising from its body as if it were being burned. The demon pet screamed in a shrill voice. Then, its body was burned into nothingness.
This scene caused everyone to be stunned.
"How can I not be part of the Tang family's destruction?"
An extremely cold voice sounded above everyone's heads.
Startled, everyone looked up.
High up in the sky, a bird beast was trembling as it flew in the air. On its back stood an extremely slender figure.
No one could see her face clearly. But what was strange was that she was looking down at them with a pair of cold eyes.
The coldness in her eyes was as cold as the ice in the extreme north.
Whoosh!
The bird disappeared all of a sudden. It was sucked into a swirl.
As the bird disappeared, the only thing left in the sky were the tall and slim person and the white skeleton sitting next to her.
"Is, is that her?"
Some titled battle pet warriors from the Tang family tried to look. Soon, they saw the face of the person that had just arrived.
It was her?!
Tang Linzhan was also taken aback. His eyes were filled with shock.
"What?"
The heads of the Situ family and the Wang family frowned. They recognized right away that she was the former future family head of the Tang family.
Of course, they knew what she looked like. She was the future family head of the Tang family.
But it was said that the future family head had been kidnapped by a terrifying person. The Tang family had sent many people to get her back but they failed. What was she doing there?
"It's her …"
Tang Ruyu looked up. She was dumbfounded when she saw who it was.
That … useless sister?
She wasn't …
Whoosh!
Tang Ruyan slowly landed on the ground surrounded by the Situ Family and the Wang Family under everyone's watchful eyes.
She glanced over to the Situ family and the Wang family, then to Tang Linzhan and the Tang family. She also cast a glance at Tang Ruyu whom she had just saved. Tang Ruyu was more talented than her younger sister.
"Who are you?"
A titled battle pet warrior shouted from the crowd.
"She's the future family head of the Tang family," a titled battle pet warrior answered for that person.
Tang Ruyan stared at the blood on the ground. She could not hold back her anger.
She had thought that she would no longer be angry or sad about the Tang family. But when she saw those faces that she had known since she was young, how desperate and weak they were, she felt sorry for them.
She suddenly realized that she was not afraid at all as she looked at the titled battle pet warriors in front of her.
On the contrary, she felt contempt.
Yes, contempt. She didn't know where that feeling came from. She just felt that those people, those titled battle pet warriors … weren't that big of a deal.
"I'm not the future family head of the Tang family. My surname is Tang."
Tang Ruyan said slowly, word by word, "You're going to wipe out the Tang family. How can you leave me out?"
Many titled battle pet warriors from the Tang family wore complicated expressions.
Surname Tang?
But no one in the Tang family thinks that your surname is Tang anymore!
Tang Linzhan pulled a long face. Deep in his eyes, there was a glint of guilt.
Tang Ruyu came back to her senses and shouted angrily, "Why did you come back? What can you do by yourself? The Tang family doesn't need you. The Tang family doesn't have a place to bury you! "
Tang Ruyan turned around. "If I die, I won't be buried in the Tang family. I won't dirty the Tang family's place. Don't worry."
"You …"
Tang Ruyu clenched her fists. Tears welled up in her eyes. "You shouldn't have come back. You shouldn't have."
She could tell that it was Tang Ruyan who had killed the pet of the demon family.
She still remembered that she had trained with this elder sister since she was young, and how she had followed behind her eagerly.
But things had changed with the passage of time.
She was no longer the girl she used to be.
The elder sister whom she had once admired had become her mask and ornament.
Tang Ruyu had become the real future family head.
The elders and her father were increasingly dissatisfied with her sister's behavior.
She had caused great losses to the Tang family.
According to her father, anyone who shamed the Tang family was a piece of trash and a disgrace.
But …
Why did you come back?
There's no place for you here!
Your surname is Tang but you're no longer a member of the Tang family!
"Hmm, we did forget about you. Since you're here to die, we'll fulfill your wish." An old man standing behind the Situ family sneered.
"I heard that she's a mask of the Tang family. So, she's a brainless mask."
"Let me do it!"
A titled battle pet warrior didn't want to waste time. He stepped forward.
The family head of the Situ family didn't stop him. He frowned. Since Tang Ruyu's identity as the future family head was exposed, so was Tang Ruyan's identity. She was a mask of the Tang family. But, was this mask really that stupid? Why would she come here alone?
He shifted his attention to the side, trying to see if there was an ambush.
The family head of the Wang family was doing the same thing.
He didn't care about Tang Ruyan at all. Instead, he was concerned about the dangers lurking in the dark.
He didn't believe that Tang Ruyan would be that stupid. Otherwise, the Situ family and the Situ family would be even more stupid if they were fooled by this stupid mask.
Besides, there was something else he was worried about.
He had heard something about the mask. It was said that a legendary battle pet warrior had captured her. He had also learned about that from the Star Organization.
But, she had come back. She couldn't have escaped from a legendary battle pet warrior, could she?
If she hadn't, then that legendary battle pet warrior had let her go.
Or, that legendary battle pet warrior had come with her!
After all, no one knew why that legendary battle pet warrior had captured her. Was it because of her beauty or something else?
"Be careful," the family head of the Wang family said in a low voice.
He was talking to the family head of the Situ family.
When the Situ Family Patriarch saw the serious look in the Wang Family Patriarch's eyes, his heart trembled. He immediately thought of some other information, and his whole body tensed up.
If there was a legendary battle pet warrior hiding in the dark, would that legendary battle pet warrior be angered if they attacked Tang Ruyan?
While they were still worrying, the old man who had spoken had stepped forward and was dashing toward Tang Ruyan.
"Watch out!"
Tang Ruyu shouted in a hurry.
The other titled battle pet warriors of the Tang family were scared as well. That was a titled battle pet warrior they were talking about. They recognized that the old man was an elder of the Situ family. They had been dealing with the major families for many years and they were familiar with each other's titled battle pet warriors.
That elder of the Situ family was not one of the strongest but he was at the upper position of the titled rank. It would be a piece of cake for him to deal with someone like Tang Ruyan.
Not to mention that the Tang family had been restrained by that strange artifact. Their astral powers seemed to have been confined, making it difficult for them to exert much strength.
Tang Ruyan turned around and stared at the old man who was dashing toward her.
A glint of sarcasm rose in Tang Ruyan's eyes. The old man was so careless that he didn't summon his battle pet.
Flaws! Flaws! Flaws!
Every single one of them!
Tang Ruyan had seen more than a dozen fatal flaws with one glance.
You want to kill me?
"Go to hell!"
Tang Ruyan stood still. The moment the old man approached her and his sword was about to cut her neck … time seemed to have slowed down.
Then, she thrust her sword forward.
The pitch black sword sliced through the air. In an instant, she was back to her original position.
Pff!
The old man in front of her was cut into several pieces. His head, his body, and his limbs were all cut off. He couldn't be more dead!
At first glance, Tang Ruyan seemed to be standing where she was. She had never moved.
Blood gushed out from the severed limbs.
Tang Ruyan and the Little Skeleton were stained with blood as well.
This unexpected scene caused everyone to be stunned.
Tang Ruyu, who had been shouting for help, was dumbfounded. She stared at that familiar yet strange person in disbelief.
Was that really Tang Ruyan?
That useless sister of hers?
The titled battle pet warriors of the Tang family, as well as those who had come to reinforce the Tang family, could not believe what they were seeing.
That old man was dead before they could see the reason!
What kind of strange attack was that?!
Only a few at the peak of the titled rank were able to see Tang Ruyan's move. But it was so fast that they found it hard to believe.
That was a speed that only those at the peak of the titled rank could achieve!
