When the crowd saw that Ximen Dingtian had gone crazy, they were terrified and started to move away. This person had already lost his mind. If they continued to stand there, they would be affected by his attacks.
This person had gone crazy and had no control over himself. If he attacked ruthlessly, he would only end up dead. Who would be willing to die in the hands of their own people?
When Xiao Yang saw this, he immediately heaved a sigh of relief in his heart as a smile appeared on his face.
Xiao Yang naturally knew why this was so. Previously, Ximen Dingtian's mind was firm. Hence, he was able to withstand all the attacks. However, as he was severely injured and some of his thoughts had collapsed, his heart meridians had been completely corroded by the Mo 'e Jade Lotus.
In addition, he was unwilling to accept the reality of failure. Hence, he allowed the hallucinations to invade him. It was normal for him to lose his mind and no one was surprised.
Ximen Dingtian was also a very dangerous person. This was because he did not differentiate between friend and foe. As long as he saw someone, he would attack. Moreover, he was very vicious. Once he attacked, he would definitely kill.
At that moment, the person who was suffering the most was Ximen Jue. When he saw that his eldest son had gone crazy, he was heartbroken. He had never thought that this would turn out like this.
Everything happened too suddenly. No matter how one looked at it, it was completely unexpected. It even made one feel very sullen.
It was obviously a good situation. No matter what, it was already planned brilliantly. However, why did the process change and the outcome turn out like this?
At that moment, Ximen Jue's heart was in a mess. He really did not know what to do. A sense of helplessness rose in his heart. It was as if everything had lost its meaning.
After decades of planning, in the end, he had gone for wool and come home shorn.
Ximen Jue's heart was filled with sorrow. Suddenly, he frowned. This was because in a trance, he saw something beautiful and he felt very comfortable.
However, the heartache kept telling Ximen Jue that he had also been tricked. There were cracks in his heart. If this were to continue, he might become a 'lunatic' too!
"Old Ximen, you should properly taste the evil that you have sown!" NanGong Yu laughed.
NanGong Yu was delighted. Although she also noticed that her son was no match for the opponent, she could not help him.
After all, keeping an eye on Ximen Jue was the most important thing now.
If he couldn't see through Ximen Jue, once he used some forbidden techniques, Nangong City's casualties would continue to increase!
They were all City Lords. How deep were their families' foundations? How could they not have any means to put their lives on the line?
Therefore, it wasn't good to push him too hard, but he couldn't give him a chance either!
Ximen Jue looked at NanGong Yu with hatred, looking at this old enemy of his.
At the same time, Ximen Jue was filled with hatred. He should have killed NanGong Yu a few decades ago, instead of using the Heart Devouring Insect to torture him. He wanted to slowly disintegrate Nangong Cheng before capturing him.
If it wasn't for NanGong Yu, Xiao Yang wouldn't have gone to Nangong City and all these things wouldn't have happened!
These variables caught everyone off guard!
Of course, if Ximen Jue had wanted to forcefully kill him at that time, the final outcome would have been that both of them would have perished together.
They all had trump cards in their hands, and they were well aware of that. That was why they didn't push too hard. Instead, they wanted to use other angles to break him down!
"I can't let this go on, I can't!" Ximen Jue's heart was constantly pondering and calculating.
Since they had already reached this stage, there was no way to reverse the situation. It was almost impossible to turn the tables around!
"NanGong Yu, if you want Nangong City to be completely crippled, go ahead and chase me. At most, we'll fight to the death." Ximen Jue's face was ice-cold, while he took out a wooden token.
When she saw the wooden token, NanGong Yu's face changed.
She knew that this was Ximen Jue's powerful trump card. Once it was used, many people would die with him. Even she, NanGong Yu, would have to give up her life!
Ximen Jue's words were more like a threat. If everyone took a step back, there would be a way out. Otherwise, they would all go to hell together!
"You're lucky to have won this time. Next time, you won't be so lucky!" After saying this, Ximen Jue snorted coldly, then turned around and flew away.
In the blink of an eye, Ximen Jue was behind his eldest son. With a chop of his palm, he directly knocked him out.
However, Ximen Jue's face was filled with pain. This was because his abdomen had been hit by Ximen Dingtian and blood was flowing out!
This was not a place to stay for long. Hence, Ximen Jue endured the pain, carried Ximen Dingtian, and quickly retreated.
When NanGong Yu saw this, she immediately rushed towards Liu Xiyang. She also wanted to protect her son.
Liu Xiyang had long wanted to retreat. However, it was not easy to do so. Now that Ximen City Governor had taken the lead, it was naturally not a problem for him to follow closely behind.
After fighting for so long, Liu Xiyang was also somewhat exhausted. Hence, there was no point in continuing the fight.
Furthermore, he was also somewhat unable to suppress the poison. He did not want to end up like Ximen Dingtian.
This time, he had brought along the elites of Xuanshui Sect. If they all died here, how much heartache would he feel?
At least, he could not accept such an outcome.
As the two Almighties retreated, the people of Ximen City, Xuanshui Sect and Ten Thousand Poisons Sect did not stay any longer. They all began to retreat.
The Almighties in power had already left. If they continued to fight, they would only be courting death.
There was no need to continue fighting a war where there was no chance of winning. They fought for glory and wealth, not to throw away their lives here.
In an instant, the people of Ximen City were like an army that had been defeated. They all began to retreat!
Seeing that everyone had begun to retreat, Xiao Yang secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
If this war continued, it was still unknown who would emerge victorious in the end.
Although the other party was indeed affected by the Mo 'e Jade Lotus, there were still many people with strong wills. Once they chose to fight to the death, the consequences would be extremely severe.
Once some people fought in despair, the battle strength that they could unleash would be extremely terrifying.
Just like some of the cultivators of Nangong City. In order to survive, they would unleash extraordinary battle strength.
If it was any other day, it would be impossible.
This was the meaning of the saying, 'An army filled with indignation is bound to win'.
"Everyone, follow me and kill. Let's make the people of Ximen City pay the price!" Nangong Jiu shouted. He then took the lead and chased after them!
