The Crisis of the Nangong Family
The transaction involving the Overlord Body Inheritance did not cause dissatisfaction among the Nangong Family’s high-ranking members.
Instead, they were all beaming with joy.
“We finally got rid of this hot potato!”
An Elder said with lingering fear.
During this period, they had been living in constant anxiety.
Especially when the patriarchs of the three first-rate families came together, it made them even more terrified.
They were afraid that at any moment, they would suffer a catastrophe that would wipe out their Family.
Now, it was all good; the source of chaos was gone.
Not only that, but the Patriarch had actually exchanged it for an Emperor Grade Skill and even a Sanyin Realm Puppet.
With such a Legacy in hand,
why would the Nangong Family worry about not being able to develop and grow stronger in the future?
Inside the main hall,
all the Nangong Family’s high-ranking members were gathered.
Almost everyone’s face revealed a strong sense of joy.
The Overlord Body Inheritance was destined to be something they could not covet.
But this Emperor Grade Skill, that was a Cultivation Technique they could genuinely Cultivate.
“The Patriarch is wise!”
“Young Miss is a true heroine, no less than a man.”
“If not for Young Miss, the entire Nangong Family would probably have fallen into an endless abyss.”
…
Almost everyone was praising Nangong Xiangtian for his capable leadership.
Nangong Xiaoman’s achievements were extraordinary.
Only the Three Elders had an expression of endless lingering fear on his face.
He was constantly shivering.
When Zhong Qing visited earlier, he had even wanted to kill him to make an example.
He never thought that
the other party would be so terrifying.
An Emperor Grade Skill, he just gave it away.
The wooden carving he casually took out was actually a Sanyin Realm expert.
It was fortunate that he did not make a move.
Otherwise, for the other party to crush him, based on the mere tip of the iceberg of strength he displayed, it would probably not be much more difficult than crushing an ant.
Of course, his small thoughts were not of much concern to others.
Everyone only felt that the dark clouds hanging over their heads had completely dispersed.
The future was a bright and smooth path.
Some even started preparing a grand banquet to celebrate properly.
And just as the banquet was set and everyone was toasting each other,
a figure, unknowingly, arrived above the Nangong Family.
It was nighttime!
The Wang Family’s Old Ancestor, Wang Che, floated in the Void Realm, looking at the noisy and lively scene below, a hint of mockery on his face.
“At death’s door, yet you still have the mood to drink and enjoy yourselves. I don’t know whether to call you foolish or big-hearted!”
His posture was arrogant, like a deity from the Nine Heavens, looking down upon the people below.
It must be said that after the Wang Family Patriarch, Wang Dong, failed in his attempt to demand the Overlord Body Inheritance during the day,
he immediately returned and directly asked his Old Ancestor to take action.
They planned to use absolute martial force to suppress and seize it by force.
Wang Che had no reason to refuse this.
Such a divine item, let alone him, even the top figures in the world would be moved by it.
A crimson light emanated from his body, like a crimson shadow, spreading out to cover the surroundings.
This was a Domain exclusive to the Tianxuan Realm.
A Domain forms its own space, capable of isolating internal and external connections.
It can be said that within this Domain, unless facing an expert of the same Rank, anyone below the Tianxuan Realm would basically only be slaughtered.
And as Wang Che’s Domain spread,
in an underground sleeping chamber of the Nangong Family,
three venerable Elders suddenly opened their eyes.
These three were all Mystic Realm experts.
One was at the Mystic Realm Middle Stage, one at the Mystic Realm Late Stage, and one at the Mystic Realm Peak.
All three were Old Ancestors of the Nangong Family.
Known as the Nangong Three Ancestors, they were the stabilizing force of the Nangong Family.
“This Aura, Tianxuan Realm!”
The founder of the Nangong Family, Old Ancestor Nangong Xuanhen, frowned and said in a deep voice.
Another Old Ancestor, Nangong Shang, was equally solemn.
“It’s that old scoundrel from the Wang Family!”
The Three Ancestors, Nangong Hong, stood up in alarm.
“The other party clearly comes with ill intentions!”
The Three Ancestors’ expressions were grim.
Since learning that the Nangong Family had obtained the Overlord Body Inheritance, they had entered a state of secluded Cultivation.
They hoped to assist the Founding Ancestor, Nangong Xuanhen, in breaking through to the Tianxuan Realm, so that the Nangong Family would have the power to protect themselves.
Even if they couldn’t Breakthrough, the three of them could specialize in a Three Talents Combined Formation, thereby adding another trump card for the Nangong Family.
They had thought that powerful enemies would covet and seize the Nangong Family’s treasure.
But they never expected the other party to come so quickly.
So fast that they were caught off guard.
“Go!”
As Nangong Xuanhen shouted in a deep voice, the Three Ancestors directly emerged from their seclusion.
A Tianxuan Realm expert was absolutely not something the Nangong Family’s high-ranking members could stop.
Adding the three of them, perhaps they would have a chance to fight.
At this critical moment,
the Three Ancestors did not retreat a single step, but instead prepared to advance and retreat with the Nangong Family.
“Boom…”
As the Nangong Family’s Three Ancestors powerfully broke out of their seclusion and directly arrived in the main hall,
the Nangong Family’s high-ranking members saw this.
They all exclaimed in surprise, stood up, and saluted, saying, “We respectfully greet the Nangong Three Ancestors!”
At the scene, cups and plates were scattered, and various rare delicacies were piled on the tables in front of each person.
This scene filled the Nangong Three Ancestors with indignation.
With a great enemy at hand, these unfilial descendants were not thinking about joining forces to resist the enemy, but were instead holding a banquet here.
“Old Ancestors, you have emerged from seclusion?”
At this moment, Nangong Xiangtian stepped forward and said, “When the Nangong Three Ancestors emerge from seclusion, why not have someone inform us in advance? We could have properly welcomed you.”
As soon as these words came out, it was as if a powder keg had been ignited.
Nangong Hong exploded instantly.
“Nangong Xiangtian, I entrusted the Nangong Family to you to manage, and this is how you lead it?”
“With a great enemy at hand, you are still unaware, and instead you are leading everyone to enjoy themselves.”
“Tell me, how can such a person be qualified to lead the entire Nangong Family?”
“Old Ancestor, calm your anger!”
Seeing Nangong Hong misunderstand their Patriarch, everyone immediately became anxious.
They repeatedly advised, “Old Ancestor, the Patriarch is the one who will lead our Nangong Family to its Peak. Things are not as you think.”
“Enough!”
These words made the Nangong Three Ancestors even more furious.
They had been anxious and fearful in the secret chamber.
Fearing that these unfilial descendants would be massacred without any power to resist.
That’s why they rushed out of seclusion.
Who would have thought that
these unfilial descendants would be so disappointing?
Not only did they not correct their mistakes,
they even tried to distort the facts.
They saw it with their own eyes, could it still be false?
“Alright, with a great enemy at hand, now is not the time for reprimands. Don’t let others laugh at us!”
At the same time, Nangong Xuanhen looked towards the Void Realm with a solemn expression and said.
“Great enemy?”
The Nangong Family’s high-ranking members looked at each other, their confidence now soaring unprecedentedly.
With nine Sanyin Realm Puppets, what great enemy? Who would dare to be presumptuous in the Nangong Family?
At this moment, Wang Che, who was high in the sky, had already completely and silently covered the entire Nangong Family with his Domain.
With this Domain in place, even if the Nangong Family was completely turned upside down tonight, it would not attract outside attention.
Wang Che, who believed everything was under his control, revealed his figure.
He just appeared before everyone.
He stood with his hands behind his back, his gaze indifferent.
“Hand over the Overlord Body Inheritance!”
A powerful Aura pressed down on everyone’s hearts like a mountain.
The Nangong Family’s Three Old Ancestors’ alarm bells rang loudly.
Every cell in their bodies was issuing a warning.
Danger!
Danger!
Danger!
