29: The Xiao family and Guyue Tower are in dire straits!

"The Xiao Family?"

"Which Xiao Family?"

Many people were stunned.

Especially the high-level members of many large Sects; they had never even heard of the Xiao Family.

Looking at these few hundred people, no one knew where they had come from. Their cultivation levels were not high; the bearded middle-aged man leading them was only at the Middle Stage of the Body Integration Realm, and the cultivation of the Disciples behind him was appallingly low.

Incredibly, half of them were only at the mere Golden Core Realm!

These people actually dared to block a million Cultivators?

Who gave them the courage?

"This is a third-rate power from Long Province."

Someone from Long Province recognized the identity of these several hundred people.

The Xiao Family had once been a first-rate power in Long Province.

But they had fallen into decline.

Word was that not long ago, they had just become a subordinate power of the Wending Sect.

But instead of clarifying things, this explanation nearly made everyone die of laughter!

"I thought they were from some great Sect. Heh, turns out they're just nobodies!"

"Who on earth gave them the courage!"

"This is hilarious!"

"Hahaha!"

"..."

The crowd mocked them unscrupulously, making the members of the Xiao Family flush with embarrassment!

But... even under such humiliation, not a single person retreated a single step!

A scholar dies for those who appreciate him!

If not for the Wending Sect, these people would have already died when the Sun and Zhao families attacked the Xiao Family.

Now... it was time to repay the Wending Sect's great kindness!

"Fight!"

Everyone in the Xiao Family shouted in unison!

"Exterminate these ants!"

Lou Yunxiao stood on the warship with his hands behind his back, his clothes fluttering without any wind.

His expression remained unchanged as he lightly pointed his finger forward.

Immediately, thousands of Cultivators cackled strangely, pouncing forward like hungry wolves seeing a flock of sheep, surrounding the Xiao Family members.

One didn't even need to think to know what fate awaited the Xiao Family.

Those wolf-like Cultivators attacked immediately!

However, right at that moment—

Dozens of incredibly massive warships suddenly charged in.

Each one was about a thousand zhang long and several hundred zhang high!

The hulls were built from incredibly hard Alder Wood and inlaid with many Obsidian stones!

This Obsidian could resist Dao technique attacks!

Such grand and luxurious warships could only come from a major power; ordinary small or medium powers simply couldn't afford them!

Sure enough.

The crowd quickly discovered that a flag was planted on every warship, with three fluttering characters that were extremely eye-catching—

"Ancient Moon Tower!"

Everyone was shocked!

Previously, the Ancient Moon Tower had not sent anyone to participate in the discussions, clearly indicating they didn't want to cooperate with the various Sects.

And now they had suddenly appeared.

What exactly was their intention?

"Whoever dares to touch the Xiao Family is an enemy of my Ancient Moon Tower!"

A figure appeared in the sky above the warships, and then a Void Realm rift appeared before him.

The person stepped out!

In the next moment, he transmigrated through the Void Realm rift and stood in front of the Xiao Family members.

With a casual wave of his hand, he broke the attacks of thousands of people!

Those thousands of Cultivators felt as if they had been struck by lightning!

One by one, they spat out blood and were sent flying backward!

The difference in their Realms was simply too vast; if that person hadn't shown mercy, these people would likely have perished right then and there!

Clearly, that person also didn't want to completely burn all bridges.

"Baili Wendao!"

Lou Yunxiao and Huang Chang's gazes both sharpened simultaneously.

Before Baili Wendao, who was at the Supreme Peak, these thousands of Cultivators were like thousands of ants that could be wiped out at will!

A moment later, thousands of people from the Ancient Moon Tower also arrived one after another.

The two sides entered a standoff.

"Is the Ancient Moon Tower going to make an enemy of the entire Eastern Region?"

Lou Yunxiao said through gritted teeth.

Although he was displeased, the Ancient Moon Tower was, after all, one of the three top powers in the Eastern Region, with deep foundations and many experts.

Even with so many of them, if they wanted to take action, they had to weigh the consequences.

"Can you, Lou Yunxiao, represent the entire Eastern Region?"

Baili Wendao laughed. "You were the ones bullying the Disciples of the Wending Sect first. When they fought back and killed your people, you became unhappy and instead united to destroy their Sect. Where is the logic in that?"

"Sophistry!"

Lou Yunxiao was furious. In a battle of words, a hundred Lou Yunxiaos would be no match for Baili Wendao.

But... this was the cultivation world!

If one could repel enemies just by talking, then what was the point of having strength?

"Have your Ancient Moon Tower people step aside immediately, or else don't blame us for being impolite!"

Lou Yunxiao suppressed his anger.

Although he wanted to destroy the Ancient Moon Tower, now was not the time.

"Then let's fight!"

"If you want to destroy the Wending Sect, you'll have to destroy our Ancient Moon Tower first!"

Baili Wendao spoke the toughest words in the calmest tone.

Since these people refused to retreat, there was no need to waste any more breath.

Why should we Cultivators fear a battle!

"Brother Lou, say no more!"

At this point, Huang Chang, who was nearby, spoke up. "He is at the Supreme Peak, and the two of us are also at the Supreme Peak!"

"Two against one, the advantage is ours!"

"Furthermore, we have more than ten Supreme Realm experts behind us!"

"Destroying the Ancient Moon Tower will be as easy as turning over a hand!"

"Why not take this opportunity..."

"To save ourselves another trip to the Ancient Moon Tower later!"

Hearing this, Lou Yunxiao thought for a moment and then agreed.

"Good, good, good! Since the Ancient Moon Tower is so eager to find death, then we shall fulfill your wish!"

"Kill them!"

Lou Yunxiao gave a grand wave of his hand, and the million Cultivators behind him immediately swarmed forward!

They covered the sky and earth like a plague of locusts!

Magic Treasures flew everywhere, and the light from various Dao techniques lit up the dark night sky as bright as day.

The thousands of people from the Ancient Moon Tower quickly fell into a disadvantage.

Cries of agony could be heard from time to time.

In just this short while, the Ancient Moon Tower had lost a tenth of its people.

But even so.

They still sent people to strictly protect the Xiao Family members; after all, with the Xiao Family's meager cultivation, they would all become cannon fodder in just a moment.

"Baili Wendao, you can die here!"

Lou Yunxiao and Huang Chang both launched attacks at Baili Wendao simultaneously.

"Dragon's Wrath!"

Lou Yunxiao used a precious sword, a top-grade Magic Treasure; his first Move was an unrivaled sword Move!

A black dragon formed from Sword Qi attacked with overwhelming power!

"Mystic Mechanism Compass!"

"Open!"

The compass in Huang Chang's hand spun rapidly, making 'clack-clack-clack' sounds, and instantly grew larger at a speed visible to the naked eye!

Then, sixty-four dazzling beams of light shot out from the compass!

The Nine Palaces Eight Trigrams Formation!

"Buzz, buzz, buzz—"

In the blink of an eye, a Formation was formed, trapping Baili Wendao in the center!

"Hah, petty tricks!"

Baili Wendao was not flustered. With a thought, an ancient Bronze Mirror hovered three feet in front of him.

As he quickly performed hand seals, the ancient mirror suddenly burst with light!

"Break!"

The ancient mirror emitted a pale blue glow, like a moon hanging in the night sky.

The glow was soft as it slowly spread out.

However, it was this very soft glow that, upon contact with the black dragon, caused its power to rapidly diminish, eventually dissipating silently.

Similarly, the Nine Palaces Eight Trigrams Formation also lost its effect.

It was completely unable to trap Baili Wendao.

Seeing this, Huang Chang simply retracted the Formation and looked coldly at Baili Wendao.

"You two, if you want to kill me, these methods are not enough!"

Baili Wendao stood with his hands behind his back.

He knew very well that the two of them had only been testing him just now.

Although they had fought for many years, they had never truly clashed in a life-or-death battle, so they were not very clear on each other's trump cards.

Baili Wendao looked relaxed on the surface, but in reality, he was also very tense.

His eyes never left the two of them for a second.

"Brother Lou, stop testing him. Let's finish this quickly!"

"Good!"

The two reached a consensus.

Then, they no longer held back, simultaneously using their ultimate Moves and attacking Baili Wendao together!

...At the same time.

Inside the Wending Sect, Lin Chen was well aware of everything happening outside the mountain gate.

The Sect Protecting Grand Array projected the scenes outside without reservation.

A 360-degree view with no blind spots.

Behind Lin Chen stood everyone from the Wending Sect, sixteen people in total.

"Sect Master, are we still not going to act?"

Li Tiangang was somewhat puzzled. If they didn't act soon, the people from the Ancient Moon Tower would all be dead.

Xiao Bufan was also very anxious.

His clansmen were all outside. If his Revered Master didn't take action, he would never see his father again.

"No rush."

Lin Chen smiled faintly.

Previously, Lin Chen had also suspected whether the Ancient Moon Tower was just putting on an act.

After all, the Wending Sect didn't actually have much interaction with the Ancient Moon Tower, and there was absolutely no need for them to side with the Wending Sect.

But when the Ancient Moon Tower truly paid a significant price.

He was moved.

"Old Ancestor, take action!"

Lin Chen's gaze sharpened as he spoke in a deep voice.
