In the dense forest, Yang Li's group was facing off against Nangong Yao.
Yang Li put down Nangong Yanran and handed her over to Nangong Qi. "Captain Qi, take good care of Eldest Miss."
Nangong Qi nodded and supported Nangong Yanran. He looked at Nangong Qi with a complicated gaze.
When Nangong Yanran heard Yang Li's words, she felt a little confused. "Young Master Li Yue, what do you mean?"
Yang Li didn't answer Nangong Yanran's question, but Nangong Qi opened his mouth. "Eldest Miss, don't ask anymore. This matter isn't clear."
At this moment, the complicated emotions in Nangong Yao's eyes disappeared. She looked at Yang Li with a mocking gaze. "Let me see how you will make me regret!"
Yang Li stretched his body. The Crouching Phoenix Lance appeared in his hands.
At this moment, Ling 'er's voice suddenly entered his ears.
"Yang Li, finish this quickly. There is a Harmonious Soul Realm cultivator spying on us nearby!"
Yang Li's heart trembled. It seemed that the Harmonious Soul Realm cultivator was afraid that Nangong Yao wouldn't be able to succeed. That was why he followed them. His goal was to kill Nangong Yanran and the others when Nangong Yao couldn't win.
Thinking of this, Yang Li looked at Nangong Qi with a cold gaze. "If you want to see, then I'll let you see! Snow Peak Technique! "
The situation seemed to be a little dangerous. Yang Li didn't dare to be careless. He directly used his strongest divine sense attack. Although Yang Li's divine sense had recovered a lot after a night of rest, he still felt a little weak after using the Snow Peak Technique.
The snowy mountain with illusory flames smashed towards Nangong Yao's sea of consciousness.
"What is this?!"
Nangong Qi felt an aura that posed a great threat to him. He was shocked, and his vigilance towards Yang Li was raised to the highest. Of course, Nangong Yao was not an ordinary person, and she naturally cultivated in Divine Sense Secret Techniques.
"Divine Shield Technique!"
A thick Spiritual Consciousness Shield appeared in Nangong Qi's Sea of Consciousness, trying to prevent Yang Li's Spiritual Consciousness Secret Technique from entering.
But how could a Conflagrated Knowledge Sea be easy to deal with? Yang Li's Conflagrated Knowledge Sea instantly covered the other side's wall, burning it incessantly. The small Snow Mountain kept smashing against it, causing the seemingly extremely hard and heavy shield to tremble.
In the outside world, Nangong Yao's expression was one of extreme pain. Her body twitched and she broke out in cold sweat. Even her clothes were drenched.
"Captain Qi! Why is Big Brother Yao fighting with Young Master Li Yue! " Although Nangong Yanran was a little naive and did not hear the conversation between the two at the start, the current situation was very clear. The two of them were fighting.
"Eldest Miss …" Nangong Qi opened his mouth, but in the end, he sighed deeply and said, "Ai, you'll find out sooner or later anyway, so I'll tell you now. Nangong Yao is here to kill us."
"What?!" Nangong Yanran's face was filled with shock and then disbelief appeared on her face. She shook her head like a rattle drum and muttered, "Impossible! You must be lying to me! Big Brother Yao loves me so much, why would he come to kill me? You must be lying to me! "
Seeing Nangong Yanran's state, Nangong Qi sighed silently and said, "Ai, Eldest Miss, if that wasn't the case, why would the two of them fight?"
"This …" Nangong Yanran was speechless. If Yang Li wanted to kill them, he naturally would not wait until now. He would have killed them in the cave long ago.
But if Nangong Yao was here to kill them, Nangong Yanran could not believe it no matter what, and did not want to believe it.
Nangong Yanran's random thoughts and Nangong Qi's words naturally could not disturb Yang Li. At this moment, Yang Li had completely suppressed Nangong Yao's divine sense. He opened his eyes and said coldly, "I told you to leave, but you're not willing to leave.
If you're not willing to leave, then you can stay here forever! Fiery Dragon Soars to the Heavens! "
If it was any other day, Nangong Yao could easily block Yang Li's spell. But in his current state, it was difficult for him to even form an effective defense, much less block it.
Just as the roaring fire dragon was about to reach Nangong Yao, Nangong Yanran's gaze, which had been staring blankly at the two of them, suddenly became frantic. She shouted, "Li Yue, don't!"
Hearing this, Yang Li frowned slightly. He originally did not want to let Nangong Yao go, but he suddenly thought of something else. In the blink of an eye, he had a plan. He dispersed the spell and pointed his spear at Nangong Yao's throat.
At this moment, an air-piercing sound came from above Yang Li's head. At the same time, a vast and vast spell attacked towards Yang Li from above. Sensing danger, Yang Li immediately used Sky Plunge and appeared beside Nangong Yao. With a chop of his hand, he knocked Nangong Yao out and lifted him up.
The person who came was the Harmonious Soul Realm cultivator who had been hiding earlier. Since he followed Nangong Yao here to prevent him from making a mistake, he would naturally jump out to protect him. A large part of the reason why Yang Li did not want to kill Nangong Yao was because of this.
"Brat, you are not a member of my Nangong family. Let go of my grandson, and I can still spare your life today. If you insist on doing things your own way, then don't blame this old man for being impolite!"
Sure enough, as Yang Li expected, the person who appeared first asked Yang Li to let go of Nangong Yao.
The old man who appeared had white hair and a white beard. His eyes were shining brightly, and his skin was as rosy as a baby's. His long beard had already reached his chest. He was skinny and wore a green robe. On his sleeves were the two words "Nangong" and the way he addressed Nangong Yao earlier.
He clearly stated his identity as a member of the Nangong family. However, Yang Li did not know his identity. However, even if Yang Li did not know, there were others who did.
"Second Elder, why!?" Nangong Qi looked at Nangong Lei in front of him. His eyes were filled with confusion and heartache, as well as traces of hatred.
When Nangong Lei heard Nangong Qi's words, his body trembled. However, he quickly restrained himself and ignored Nangong Qi. Nangong Lei looked coldly toward Yang Li and said, "Brat, my patience is effective. You'd better hand him over immediately!"
When Yang Li heard this, he smiled disdainfully and said, "What does your patience have to do with me? You can try and see if you can kill him faster or if I can kill him faster. "
"You!" Nangong Lei instantly felt an extreme headache. He did not dare to take the risk. This was his only grandson. If something happened to his grandson because of him, not to mention what would happen to his son and daughter, he himself would not be able to forgive himself.
"What do you want?" Nangong Lei looked at the fearless Yang Li and said angrily.
"Nothing much. Just send us back to the Nangong family safely." Yang Li said casually.
"Impossible! Nangong Yanran and Yang Li can't return to the family no matter what! At most, I'll let you leave the Demonic Beast Mountain Range and go somewhere else! "Nangong Lei rejected Yang Li's proposal without hesitation and said coldly.
When Nangong Yanran had first seen Nangong Lei, she had felt happy in her heart. She had thought that Nangong Lei had also come to pick them up. However, when she heard Nangong Lei's last sentence, Nangong Yanran felt like she was going to collapse.
Normally, Nangong Lei and the others had taken great care of her. However, now, the people who had taken care of her had come one by one to tell her that she could not return to the family. This made her feel extremely painful.
"Grandpa Lei, why is this happening?" Nangong Yanran's heart was in pain. She looked at Nangong Lei with misty eyes.
When Nangong Lei heard Nangong Yanran's sobbing words, his body trembled again. The eyes that had been staring coldly at Yang Li also slowly closed.
Yang Li looked at this scene coldly. In a big family, there were many conflicts of interests. Even if there were feelings, they would eventually be driven by interests and swallowed up.
Nangong Lei's next sentence confirmed his thoughts.
"Yanran, the family can't go on like this. The family is going downhill now, and the family head can't lead the family well, so we have to make a choice." Nangong Lei's voice trembled.
In fact, he did not want to treat Nangong Yanran like this, but the situation had forced them to make such a choice. The Great Elder was soft-hearted and reluctant, but he had to do this.
"Why? My father was willing to step down as the family head, but you still refused to accept it. Now that the family is going downhill, you want to kill me and force my father to step down. Why are you doing this!? " Nangong Yanran's tears flowed down her face like a pearl curtain with a broken thread as she said in a sad voice.
"The ancestral teachings of the Nangong family cannot be disobeyed!" Nangong Lei's eyes suddenly opened. His eyes were red and bloodshot, and he said, "The family head has not reached the Semi Law Realm, and he can't accept it even if he takes the initiative to step down, unless he dies."
"We have no choice!"
"Then you can force my father to die by killing me! The ancestral teachings also say that! Killing within the family is not allowed! Aren't you doing the same!? "Nangong Yanran's voice suddenly became louder as she roared.
"After all of you are gone, I will kill myself to atone for my sins. Everything I have done is to make the family stronger. I cannot lose the title of the number one family in the Southern Fire Region just like that. The family cannot continue to go downhill."
Nangong Lei's expression slowly calmed down. His thoughts seemed to have cleared up. Even his voice became cold. After he finished speaking, he stared straight at Yang Li and said, "Hand over my grandson! Otherwise, all of you will die with him today! "
"Grandpa Lei, Li Yue has nothing to do with the affairs of the Nangong family. Since you want my life, I will give it to you. But please don't make things difficult for Li Yue. He saved my life once, and it is not the style of the Nangong family to repay kindness with enmity." Nangong Yanran's expression also gradually became calm.
Nangong Feng had already told her that if the people in her family wanted to take her life, she should not resist and should just let them do as they wished. After she died, he and her mother would follow her to the afterlife.
They had already suffered enough from the pain of the Divine Sense Poison. If it was not for Nangong Yanran, they would have died a long time ago.
Nangong Lei heard her words and his voice became dry. He said, "Okay, Grandpa Lei will listen to you."
Nangong Yanran smiled sadly. Looking at Yang Li, she said, "Li Yue, I'm sorry, I can't bring you back to the family."
Hearing Nangong Yanran's words, which were filled with the will to die, Yang Li frowned. Not being able to return to the Nangong family was a big deal. He originally wanted to resist Nangong Lei to the end, but now he had no choice but to give up on this idea. He must obtain the Nangong family's alliance, otherwise the four sects would really be in danger.
At this time, Nangong Qi said, "Elder Lei, is there really no way to let the Patriarch and the others go?"
Nangong Lei, who originally did not want to answer Nangong Qi's question, let out a long sigh and said, "If the Patriarch's poison was cured and he held a knife against us, we would not make such a choice. However, the poison in the Patriarch's body is not an ordinary poison. For decades, we have used all kinds of methods, but it still did not work."
Nangong Lei was also in great pain. Nangong Feng's talent was very good, and he even had the chance to break through to the Dharma State. At that time, the Nangong family's reputation as the number one family in the Southern Fire Region would become even more prominent.
However, because of the Dongfang family's poison, they had no choice but to kill their own clansmen.
Hearing this, the bitter smile on Nangong Yanran's face became even more helpless. This poison had really made the three of them suffer a lot.
