Shirō Makino wasn't sure how Duan Yong knew all this, but it didn't seem like he was lying.
There was no need for that.
Mentioning that his mother's spiritual power wasn't weak was equivalent to telling Shirō Makino that even without them, his mother would still have a chance to escape.
With them, she would be able to leave more easily.
Furthermore, even if they successfully rescued his mother, she would still be able to protect herself.
She might even have the chance to ambush them and escape!
Duan Yong's words were tantamount to telling Little White that at the very beginning, when the two of them had slapped hands and made an oath, he had actually wanted to make use of Bai Muye and the others.
He wanted to use them to create chaos so that his mother could escape.
But now that he said it to Shirō Makino, it meant that he already considered Shirō Makino a friend.
He wasn't someone to be used.
As expected of an old soul from the Great Ancient Era, his schemes were truly profound!
Even if he didn't say it out loud, Shirō Makino could guess a little — —
A woman that the Great Elder of the Duan Clan found to give birth to Duan Yong might not be so simple!
But that was still just a guess.
"Actually, I didn't want to trick you before, but I did hide some information. So, I'm sorry." Duan Yong looked at Shirō Makino seriously.
"So, you're telling me all this now because something happened?" Shirō Makino asked.
Duan Yong nodded and smiled, "Yes, we might have to face him head-on."
Shirō Makino looked at him, "Are you confident?"
Duan Yong shook his head, "It's not that simple … … He prepared for so many years, and now that he's making a move, he must have made a foolproof plan. He won't be defeated so easily. First, he set up an ambush outside, but it's not difficult to break it. "
Duan Yong sighed, "The difficult part is that he completely destroyed my plan to rescue my mother. Now, even if you leave with me, you won't have the chance to get close to her. Originally, we could have used another method to quickly solve this problem, but now, it might be delayed for a long time. "
"So, Xiao Bai, this matter has nothing to do with you, so don't get involved. I know that your true strength is not weak, but there is no need for you to participate in such a mindless war. "
"This … is a civil war in Tianhu!"
"If we can meet again, I'll drink with you again!"
Duan Yong patted Shirō Makino lightly on the shoulder as he spoke, and then he said, "Take care!"
While they were talking, the ground in the distance suddenly trembled slightly.
Then —
A large group of zombie-like old men exuding a decaying aura, numbering in the hundreds, were madly rushing in this direction from all directions at an extremely high speed.
On the other side, the young prodigies from Planet Tianhu, the princess, and the knights were all dumbfounded.
There was a kind of hair-raising feeling.
They couldn't even tell if it was a human or something else …
Duan Yong said, "Let Young Master Bai take you back to the Sky Lake to cultivate for a while!"
After he finished speaking, he took a deep look at Shirō Makino, and stepped out of the "door" without hesitation. The hundreds of zombie-like old men behind him followed suit.
Lin Zijin came to Shirō Makino's side and asked, "What happened?"
Ji Chae Yi, Si Yin, and Shan Gu also came over.
Ouyang Xingqi couldn't help but come over as well.
The six Calabash Brothers hesitated and dawdled. They wanted to come over, but they seemed unwilling.
Shirō Makino took a look at Lin Zijin and said softly, "An internal war in Tianhu."
"What about us?" Ji Chae Yi took a look at Shirō Makino.
Shirō Makino thought for a moment and said, "Wait for a while."
'What do you mean wait for a while?'
All of them looked at Bai Muye with a puzzled expression.
"There is most likely an Artifact Array outside. Let's wait for a while. Once the Artifact Array is broken, we'll go out."
Shirō Makino took a look at Ji Chae Yi and Lin Zijin and said, "Once we get out, we'll find a chance to save his mother. If there's a chance, we'll do it. If not, we'll … create one. "
Lin Zijin, Ji Chae Yi, and the rest understood Shirō Makino's intentions.
Xiao Bai wanted to help Duan Yong!
Under normal circumstances, many people would naturally be resistant to ancient beings. After all, there was a huge gap between them.
However, after interacting with Duan Yong for a while, they would realize that he had many good points worth befriending.
Furthermore, thinking about it carefully, Duan Yong had never taken the initiative to harm anyone.
He wanted to make use of Xiao Bai and the rest, but he did not kill them all just because he was afraid that news would leak.
Although the young prodigies of Tianhu Planet seemed afraid of him, they respected him more than anything else.
Furthermore, accepting an ancient being as a friend might be difficult for others, but it was not a problem for Shirō Makino.
After all, since he was a teenager, he had always had an ancient soul by his side.
These days, when he talked to Duan Yong about the ancient times, Duan Yong would occasionally mention the famous Four Fairies.
His words were full of respect.
Strictly speaking, although Duan Yong was an old soul, if he did not say it himself, no one would believe him!
Therefore, he really treated Shirō Makino as a friend. He was honest enough.
…
…
When Duan Yong brought a group of zombie-like old men with a decaying aura to the outside, the array formation that he had set up was immediately activated.
Rumble!
A series of terrifying attacks bombarded Duan Yuanxin.
All kinds of attacks poured down like an avalanche.
A blue light screen appeared on Duan Yong's body. This time, the color of the light screen was darker!
It was still passively activating the defense talisman!
Countless attacks landed on his defensive light barrier, but none of them were able to cause much of a ripple to appear on it.
The zombie-like old men turned a blind eye to the various attacks coming from the array formation. They allowed the attacks to land on their bodies. Their withered faces were expressionless.
Most of the attacks that landed on them were unable to cause them any harm at all. An extremely small number of attacks, upon landing on them, would cause tiny wounds to appear on their bodies.
But it did not affect them at all!
It was as if a knife had landed on a bone made of metal. The knife's blade was bent, but the bone was not damaged at all.
The withered bodies of the zombie-like old men were like the hardest metal in the universe. Almost no attack could hurt them.
Therefore, the group of zombie-like old men charged out of the spell formation and killed their way out of the spell formation while withstanding the terrifying, surging attacks!
Hundreds of zombie-like old men with unfathomable strength charged out. The shock and pressure they brought to the people lying in ambush outside was unimaginable!
Everyone knew that there were terrifying beings hiding in the forbidden areas of the Tianhu Holy Land. Once they approached them, their lives would be in danger.
But everyone also knew that it was impossible for those beings to come out of the forbidden areas!
This was the experience they had accumulated through countless years of bloody and tearful battles. It had been deeply imprinted in their minds.
Therefore, when they saw a group of ragged, withered, zombie-like humanoid creatures charging out of the array formation, all the people lying in ambush were stunned.
Although they did not know who they were, they immediately realized the origin of these terrifying humanoid creatures.
"Fight!"
"Hurry up and report …"
"They are coming!"
For a moment, there was chaos outside the entrance of the Tianhu Holy Land. People were thrown off their feet.
Inside the array formation, all kinds of terrifying attacks were still attacking Duan Yong in a frenzy.
Duan Yong looked calm. He walked out step by step against the blue defensive light screen.
There wasn't much of an expression on his face. Every step he took was very calm and serious.
There was a hint of mockery in the depths of his eyes.
He could not be more familiar with this array formation. This was because these talisman formations were excavated from the Tianhu Holy Land.
Yes, and it was dug out from his grave.
This was a kind of gift he gave to the Duan Family back then. At the same time, it was also a kind of precaution.
If the Duan Family did not attack him, then this talisman formation technique would be reignited by the Duan Family after countless years of silence.
This meant that it was a kind of inheritance.
Inheritance through space.
From the ancient times to the present day.
A kind of rebirth of civilization.
He would also give up the position of the Duan Family Master after helping the ancient beings in the Tianhu Burial Ground to revive and return this position to the Duan Family.
How could such existences like them put a small clan in their eyes?
Unfortunately, the Duan Family gave up this opportunity because of the benefits in front of them.
They even used his talisman formation technique to attack him.
Duan Yong did not try to break the array at all. He only opened up the defense and walked out step by step, letting those attacks land on his defensive light screen.
Countless enemies had died under this kind of array formation.
"Today, I suffered a wave of attacks from the talisman formation technique that I developed. Is this considered a kind of redemption?"
Duan Yong's lips curled into a self-mocking smile as he continued to walk out.
Soon, he passed through the array formation.
The battle cries outside had already quietened down.
Duan Yuanxin never dreamed that Duan Yong was an old soul in the Tianhu Holy Land.
This kind of information asymmetry had caused him to lose from the very beginning.
As Duan Yong had told Xiao Bai, the only way Duan Yuanxin could control Duan Yong was probably that woman.
When Duan Yong walked out, the array formation behind him was still running.
Without looking at it, he threw a talisman into it.
It was like a barrel of oil being poured into a raging fire.
Boom!
The entire array suddenly burst out with an unimaginably terrifying energy.
Then, the array exploded.
Like a shooting star, after releasing the most dazzling light, it fell completely silent.
Duan Yong stood there quietly, looking at the zombie-like old men coming back from all directions.
Many of the old men were covered in blood.
Gradually, they appeared in front of him and lined up neatly, like soldiers waiting to be inspected.
Duan Yong cupped his fists at the group of old men. "Everyone, thank you for your hard work!"
The zombie-like old men were silent.
Duan Yong seemed to have gotten used to it.
He took out his communication device, glanced at it, and sighed softly. "You've really cleaned yourself thoroughly. Unfortunately, this is what I wanted you to wash away! They … are not loyal to me. "
Actually, at this time, the best thing to do was to go back and call Shirō Makino and the others out, so that they could try to save his mother.
That was his original plan.
The ancient souls were emotionless.
But this ancient soul was, after all, born in the belly of a modern woman.
He had lived in this world for almost thirty years.
He was not one of those zombie-like old men, nor was he one of those ancient beings who could not leave the burial grounds. Now, he was a living … modern man with flesh and blood!
"That young man can be treated as a friend."
"Even if ancient beings like us are resurrected, we still need friends that belong to this era."
Duan Yong murmured to himself. He did not look back, but led the zombie-like old men away.
This was a battle between him and Duan Yuanxin!
He could have ended the battle quickly, but as Duan Yuanxin took the initiative to attack, the time was extended.
Duan Yong's eyes flashed with determination.
"If that's the case, let's see if the Duan family that has been running Tianhu Planet for so many years is stronger, or if we ancient souls are fiercer!"
Shirō Makino estimated the time in his mind. After Duan Yong left for more than an hour, he looked at the crowd and said, "It's about time. Let's go out."
"It's about time?" Ji Chae Yi was surprised.
"I said it's about time. I meant that Duan Yong should be far away by now," Shirō Makino said.
"Are you that confident in him? Duan Yuanxin must have set up an inescapable trap outside … "Shan Gu leaned over and whispered.
"An inescapable trap? That's for humans, not ancient beings. " Shirō Makino glanced at Shan Gu. "He doesn't know where Duan Yong's roots are, so Duan Yuanxin will definitely lose this battle."
With that, Shirō Makino walked out.
Ji Chae Yi glanced at Lin Zijin, wanting her to persuade Shirō Makino not to be rash.
Lin Zijin skipped behind Shirō Makino. "Brother, wait for me!"
Two lunatics!
Ji Chae Yi followed them helplessly. She said to Si Yin, "You're the last to come out!"
Shan Gu's figure flashed and appeared in front of Ji Chae Yi. "You're behind me!"
Ouyang Xingqi wanted to say something but stopped. Her eyes were filled with envy.
The six Calabash Brothers rushed to Ouyang Xingqi's side.
"Little sister, you're the last!"
"You're the last to go!"
"We're in front!"
Ouyang Xingqi smiled. A team atmosphere of living and dying together?
I have that too.
When Shirō Makino came out, the first thing he saw was the extinguished formation.
He strolled around the place twice and could not help but complain. "Who set up this formation? It's too casual … average! "
Unfortunately, the person who set up the formation was already dead. He was killed by the zombie-like old men. Not even his bones were left.
Otherwise, even if he opened the coffin, he would jump up and argue with Shirō Makino.
Go ahead if you can!
At this time, the others came out one after another.
When they first came out, they all had a guarded look on their faces.
Only when they saw the scene outside did they reveal a shocked expression.
Obviously, Duan Yong had broken through the blockade set up by Duan Yuanxin and successfully rushed out!
At this time, the communication devices of many young sky-prides from Tianhu Planet started to ring.
Someone projected the message on the screen and shouted at Shirō Makino. "Mr. Bai, come and look at the news!"
"Mr. Bai, this is the latest news. Come and take a look!"
"Mr. Bai …"
Shirō Makino was stunned. Since when was he so popular?
However, he did not have time to think. He led the crowd to the sky-prides from Tianhu Planet and looked at the news that was projected on their communication devices.
Everyone was shocked when they saw the news being broadcasted on their communicators.
Was Tianhu Planet about to start an all-out war?
This news was Duan Yong's counterattack!
A large amount of evidence and a complete chain of evidence almost nailed Duan Yuanxin, the shameless bastard who "betrayed" his family's interests, to the pillar of shame!
An affair with his sister, two children with the surname Shangguan, a plot against his own son, an assassination attempt on the Grand Supreme Elder …
All kinds of video evidence made countless people from Tianhu Planet eat this year's … no, in the history of Tianhu Planet!
The head of the Duan Family, Duan Yuanxin, had an affair with his sister, had two children, and used the Shangguan Family as a cover. Now, he wanted to kill Crown Prince Duan Yong and let one of his children take over. He even killed the Grand Supreme Elder …
The entire Tianhu Planet was in an uproar.
Was Duan Yuanxin prepared well enough?
Perhaps he was.
But Duan Yong was even more prepared!
With this evidence, it could be said that many of Duan Yuanxin's arrangements were meaningless.
Especially with all the evidence that proved his innocence, no one would believe it.
After all, the public loved to see the love news of such a big shot!
Not to mention that Duan Yong's evidence was too solid and sufficient!
Then, Duan Yong's diehard supporters issued a declaration of war.
In the declaration of war, dozens of Duan Yuanxin's crimes were listed.
The most ruthless one was that he betrayed his family!
Not only did he bring back the two legitimate sons of the Shangguan Family, but he also gave the Shangguan Family 30% of the Tianhu Holy Land's shares!
How could this be?
Not just the Duan Family, but the entire Tianhu Planet was furious.
Who was the Shangguan Family?
How dare they take the shares of the Tianhu Holy Land?
Instantly, countless people supported Duan Yong, and even more cursed Duan Yuanxin, the head of the Duan Family!
As soon as Duan Yong came out of the Tianhu Holy Land, he caused an unimaginable commotion.
Now, the hundreds of zombie-like old men, who exuded a decaying aura, were all dressed in modern standard equipment. Their bodies were shrouded and sealed.
While covering their faces, they also covered the decaying aura on their bodies.
No one knew their identity. They only knew that this group of terrifying experts were Duan Yong's personal guards!
At the same time, more people were coming from all directions to the city that Duan Yong currently occupied.
These people were all a group of people that Duan Yong had secretly trained for many years.
They used the resources of the Tianhu Holy Land, and the epiphany happened in the Tianhu Holy Land!
If the Duan Family was obedient, this group of people would be the greatest wealth he left to the Duan Family. If not … they would be the sharp sword that would destroy the fortune of the head of the Duan Family!
Because of Duan Yong's sudden appearance, the peace of the entire Tianhu Planet was completely broken.
Most importantly, with the evidence that Duan Yong threw out, as well as the declaration of war, there were finally different voices within the Duan Family!
These days, Duan Yuanxin had basically taken control of the Duan Family with a series of suppression and roping methods.
Some elders who had always remained neutral were mostly aware of the reason why Duan Yuanxin had suppressed the Grand Supreme Elder.
After all, there had been rumors that Crown Prince Duan Yong was not Duan Yuanxin's child, but the Grand Supreme Elder's.
Therefore, after Duan Yuanxin made his move, this group of people remained silent.
Then, in the process of roping them in, Duan Yuanxin promised them a lot of benefits. Therefore, this group of people readily expressed their support for Duan Yuanxin.
However, the evidence that Duan Yong threw out and the declaration of war were too ruthless!
To be honest, there was no evidence to prove that Duan Yong was not Duan Yuanxin's biological son!
Rumors were rumors after all. There would be no waves without wind? No way!
Show us the evidence!
And the evidence that Duan Yong took out was too real!
The complete chain of evidence, the testimonies of countless people, and the videos that could support it all pointed to the head of the family, Duan Yuanxin, betraying the family.
This time, many people could not accept it.
Among these people, there were even supporters who had been on Duan Yuanxin's side from the beginning!
They supported Duan Yuanxin because no matter how they fought, whether it was father and son killing each other or brothers fighting each other, it was just a civil war in the Duan family.
But it was different now. The Shangguan family, that rotten family from the Holy Empire that relied on all kinds of means to obtain the ancient inheritance … was actually so deeply involved in the feud of the Tianhu Duan family!
This was absolutely intolerable!
At the same time, the scandal between Duan Yuanxin and his sister … was also completely exposed!
This scandal was too big!
No one could suppress it!
In the video that Duan Yong released, there was a rather complete scene of Duan Yuanxin leaving the Tianhu Star and heading to the Holy Empire's Shangguan family to meet Madam Shangguan.
There were even some extremely private videos!
Even Duan Yuanxin was shocked and angry when he saw it.
He could not imagine how Duan Yong did it.
Because not only were the scenes in those videos real, there was no third person present at that time!
"This bastard, he did something to me!" Duan Yuanxin quickly understood the crux of the matter.
But the problem was that he had been guarding against Duan Yong from the beginning to the end.
How could he give him the chance to do anything to him?
So, the problem must be around him!
"There's … a traitor by my side?"
Duan Yuanxin was shocked and angry.
Before he could react, a subordinate came over to report, "Patriarch, Second Elder and Ninth Elder asked me to inform you to call for an emergency meeting of the Elders …"
"They … inform me?" Duan Yuanxin felt as if a bucket of cold water had been splashed on his head.
Since when did the family need an Elder to initiate a meeting of the Elders?
Unless it was … impeachment!
The Elders of the Duan Family had this right.
But the problem was that Second Elder and Ninth Elder were the ancestors of Duan Tianxing and Duan Feixing. They were all hardcore supporters of Duan Yuanxin!
Duan Yuanxin did not even have the mood to think about who the traitor was. He immediately stood up and ordered the person beside him, "Contact the Shangguan family immediately. Tell them that it's time for them to contribute! If they want to eat meat, they must be prepared to be beaten! "
"Yes!" The person beside him replied and left quickly.
Duan Yuanxin tidied up his clothes, and his eyes became even colder. "Calling for an Elders' meeting? Let's go! I want to see who supports it and who opposes it! "
In Duan Yuanxin's backyard, the gentle and quiet Madam came out to trim the flowers again.
She liked this kind of work very much. Every time she faced the flowers, her expression was especially gentle.
She could easily infect everyone around her.
The people around her were Duan Yuanxin's absolute confidants, and they would even rotate twice a year. But no matter who it was, as long as they were around the Madam for a period of time, they would develop a kind of heartfelt respect and love for this gentle and quiet woman.
The outside was already in chaos, but the small courtyard was still quiet.
The Madam quietly trimmed the flowers, and the few maidservants also quietly watched from the side.
This place was as beautiful as a painting!
Madam Duan carefully looked at the rose in front of her. It had been trimmed a few days ago, but perhaps the Spiritual Qi here was too abundant. In just a few days, it had actually grown some unsightly branches.
Although most of them were still in the state of tender shoots, they would definitely affect the beauty after they grew.
She took a pair of scissors and cut off all the branches. Then she smiled at a maidservant beside her and said, "Look, don't you find it more pleasing to the eye?"
"Yes, Madam's aesthetic is the best in the world!" The maidservant sincerely praised.
"Haha, it's not that exaggerated." Madam Duan smiled and shook her head. Then she glanced outside and said, "Is there anything happening outside? Why does it feel a little chaotic? "
The maidservant hesitated for a moment and said with a smile, "Madam, don't worry. No matter what happens outside, your place is absolutely the safest …"
Swish!
Before she finished her words, a figure suddenly appeared in the small courtyard.
He held a sword in his hand and stabbed at Madam Duan.
The sword light was like a waterfall.
