"If the Ye Family doesn't stop me, I'm 100% sure." The Lei Family Head smiled and said, "However … after this matter, I hope that Elder can help the Lei Family in the future. The Lei Family is willing to die for Elder."
Y, &
"After this is done, I won't mistreat you." Qiu Zhenming knew what the Lei Family was thinking.
If it wasn't for the fact that he didn't want to fight with the Human Emperor Palace, he wouldn't care about a small force like the Lei Family.
In the entire Stone Stage City, there were only three people that he cared about. One was his disciple, Ye Tianhai. The other two were Ye Baitian and Tuoba Yun.
He didn't even care about Ye Baitian, but he couldn't ignore Tuoba Yun because he was the leader of the Human Emperor Palace.
The leader of the Lei Family smiled when he got the promise. He knew that the Lei Family couldn't replace the Ye Family in Elder Qiu's heart.
But Qiu Zhenming's promise would help the Lei Family a lot in the future. Compared to a disobedient Ye Family, the Lei Family was more beneficial to the Moon Clan.
"Humph, even if I don't do anything, the people that the Moon Clan wants to kill aren't people that you, the leader of the Human Emperor Palace, can protect!" Qiu Zhenming sneered.
A few days later, the battle for the hunting area finally arrived.
In the ancestral land of the Ye Family, Ye Tianze let out a long breath. A strong aura burst out, and his body lit up with green and red lights.
The temperature of the ground rose, and the wind whistled faintly.
"The Wind Spirit Blood is strengthened to the fifth level, and the Fire Spirit Blood is strengthened to the sixth level. As expected of the Spiritual Spring." Feeling the surging blood in his body, Ye Tianze raised his hand and punched.
Boom!
The fist landed on the ancient stone wall and directly smashed a fist mark. The entire space shook, showing how terrifying the strength of this fist was.
"With my current ability, even if I don't use the Conqueror Spear, it's more than enough to deal with an ordinary warrior of the Gathering Tripod Realm. If I use the Conqueror Spear, killing a warrior of the Gathering Tripod Realm will be a piece of cake," Ye Tianze said confidently.
Even though he hadn't made any significant strides in his cultivation over the past few days, he had managed to stabilize his cultivation. This was especially so for his Celestial Globe Battle Body.
He had absorbed all of the remaining medicinal energy and blood essence in his body. With the help of the spiritual energy in the spring, he had raised his two Spirit Bloodlines by a grade.
If he were to face Ye Tianhai now, he would not have to go through so much trouble like before.
"En!" Sensing the commotion outside, Ye Tianze immediately retracted his aura.
Not long after, Ye Baitian appeared. He glanced inside and was a little surprised. It had only been a few days since he left, but more than half of the spirit qi here had disappeared.
When he saw the fist mark on the stone wall, even he couldn't help but be shocked. He asked, "Did you make that fist mark?"
"Yes." Ye Tianze nodded.
"It seems that your strength is still above this old man's expectations." Ye Baitian's gaze was complicated, but he quickly calmed down. "It's a pity that your opponent is the Moon Clan. No matter how fast you improve, you're just …"
He wanted to say "a last-ditch struggle," but he was afraid that it would hurt Ye Tianze's confidence and affect the competition in the hunting area, so he swallowed it back. "Come with me."
Looking at Zhang Xuan's back, Ye Tianze shook his head and followed closely behind.
Outside the Human Emperor Palace, the three families had already gathered.
The competition in the hunting area meant the resources each family could obtain in the next year. The amount of resources would determine the prosperity of the family.
The Ye Family had occupied the best hunting area for many years. The resources they obtained allowed them to leave the other two families far behind.
Ye Tianxing and Ye Tianhai were disabled during the clan examination. Plus, the Ye Family's relationship with Elder Qiu made the other two families smell an opportunity.
Although the Tuoba Family didn't stand with the Lei Family openly, they subconsciously saw the Ye Family as their common enemy.
However, when the ceremony started and they saw the Lei Family's lineup, the Tuoba Family and the Ye Family were shocked.
There were eight elders in the Gathering Tripod Realm, 20 Awakening Realm cultivators, and almost 100 young disciples in the Foundation Building Realm.
"Why did the Lei Family gather all their cultivators?"
"In the past years, there were at most two Gathering Tripod Realm cultivators participating in the competition."
"Do they want to fight the Ye Family to the death?"
There was a lot of discussion outside the Human Emperor Palace. Everyone knew that the number of cultivators sent out by the three families was about the same every year.
This was also to avoid fighting to the death in the competition. In the end, both sides would suffer.
"I don't think the Lei Family wants to fight the Ye Family to the death. They want to kill Ye Tianze during the competition."
"Eight Gathering Tripod Realm cultivators? Is there a need for that? And they're all elders of the Lei Family. "
The Lei Family did not give any explanation to the discussions of the outside world, nor did they have any intention of stopping them. Clearly, they had silently agreed with what they had said.
On the other side, although the Tuoba Family despised the Lei Family's behavior, they didn't object.
"What should we do?" Ye Tianhai asked in the Ye Family's lineup.
Although Ye Tianze's spear pierced through his chest, it didn't hurt his heart. After a few days of recuperation, his injury was much better.
Compared to his brother, Ye Tianxing, he was considered lucky.
"Don't worry. When the time comes, you just need to follow a few elders." Ye Family's Patriarch Ye Lihe said, "The Lei Family sent out such a strong lineup for the competition."
"Father, you mean …" Ye Tianhai understood and couldn't help but worry about Ye Tianze.
Although he didn't like Ye Tianze, Ye Tianze proved himself in the assessment battle with his own strength. He didn't lose unjustly.
"Don't be soft-hearted!" Ye Lihe said with a cold face, "The two big families are eyeing us covetously, especially the Lei Family. They're even using this opportunity to curry favor with your teacher. You have to put the family's interests first. Besides, this is Ye Tianze's choice."
Ye Tianhai sighed and did not say anything else. He knew that the reason why the Lei Clan had sent out all the Elders was to kill Ye Tianze during the Hunting Zone Contest.
Facing eight elders of the Gathering Tripod Realm, even if he was at his peak, he wouldn't be able to survive.
Although Ye Tianze was much stronger than he thought, he was only in the Awakening Realm. Facing these elders of the Lei Family who were already familiar with the use of spiritual energy, it would be hard for him to survive.
Standing in the crowd, Ye Tianze was still expressionless. He felt the killing intent from the Lei Family. No matter how stupid he was, he could understand his situation.
"The tree wants to be still, but the wind won't stop." Ye Tianze sighed and sneered.
The Sacrificial Ceremony soon began. The Human Emperor Palace blew conches and bugles. Along with the rumbling of war drums, the sacrificial altar appeared.
After an hour, the ceremony finally ended. The people of the three big families left the city one after another.
At the entrance of Stone Taishan Mountain, Tuoba Yun was wearing a black and red robe. He had been waiting for a long time.
