I tried to kill the heroines of destiny, but they ended up chasing after me.

Standing in the void, Zhang Xian's hearing, having reached the late stage of the Heavenly Lord realm, could perceive sounds over a vast range. Therefore, he clearly understood the conversation between Zhang Shen and Zhang He...

He was planning to make Zhang Shen's guess wrong, so he had been very suppressive in his previous attacks. But he didn't expect that the First Branch was really as Zhang Shen said, and had stopped waiting to die.

Therefore, like Zhang He, he miscalculated.

Although he was dissatisfied at the moment, he couldn't think too much about it. Compared with the matter of the First Lineage, he clearly understood which was more important. In short, the matter of the First Lineage was the most important thing right now.

What he didn't expect was that the reason Zhang Shen hid that shadow in his eyes was because he had discovered Zhang Xian's actions and felt disgust towards him...

Therefore, judging from this incident alone, the relationship between the two should not be as good as that of a normal father and son.

But Zhang Xian naturally didn't care about any of that now.

Because he only saw one thing in front of him: to destroy the first lineage, make his own second lineage the first lineage of the Emperor Sword Clan, and make himself the patriarch of the Emperor Sword Clan.

"Hmph!" Zhang Xian sneered, watching the defensive formation in the air gradually lose its light. He waved his hand again, and the powerful true energy gathered in his hand once more, gradually transforming into a spear, which he gripped tightly.

This spear was vastly different from the previous ones. The moment it appeared in Zhang Xian's hand, the void centered on Zhang Xian's hand trembled.

Instead of bursts of blue light, it was a dragon shimmering with blue light, slowly swimming around the spearhead.

Upon seeing the spear, both Zhang Shen and Zhang He below felt a strong sense of suppression.

They felt very uncomfortable, as if they were bound by the surrounding space, and it wasn't just them; almost everyone in the Tianyue Squad felt the same way.

This demonstrates Zhang Xiantianjun's true strength in the later stages.

That... is enough for them to look up to.

Zhang Xian could sense the situation below. He chuckled and did not restrain himself. Instead, he gathered his true energy again, and the dragon's light expanded once more. Similarly, its aura also increased significantly.

But this kind of momentum was something that Zhang Shen and his group could not withstand.

In an instant, most of the people below were kneeling on one knee, their faces showing pain. This naturally included Zhang Shen and Zhang He.

He did it on purpose...

Besides pain, Zhang Shen's eyes also revealed a hint of anger. He understood why Zhang Xian had done this, and not only him, but Zhang He understood as well. In his eyes, besides the pain, there was not anger, but a sense of awe... a very strong sense of awe.

This was a warning from Zhang Xian, the future patriarch of the Emperor Sword Clan, telling them that he was destined to become the patriarch of the Emperor Sword Clan, and that they couldn't just guess at his future...

Therefore, they had no choice but to endure it, and all they could do was look at the powerful figure above them...

Under this oppressive force, the great formation finally lost its last glimmer of light.

Jingling Temple, appearing and disappearing!

But then, something unexpected happened!

Without any warning, a light drizzle began to fall from the sky...

As the drizzle fell on Zhang Xian, his expression changed, his eyes narrowed, and without the slightest hesitation, he hurled the spear, adorned with the dragon's wings, towards the direction of Jingling Academy...

But just as the spear was about to touch Jinglingyuan, the drizzle seemed to receive some kind of stimulus and instantly covered it, causing it to abruptly stop in mid-air.

The fine rain dripped onto the dragon's body, like an erosion, eroding everything about it. A trace of pain appeared in the dragon's human-like eyes before it slowly dissipated into the sky.

"How is this possible?" Upon seeing this, Zhang Xian's shock was undisguised!

At this moment, the true appearance of Jingling Academy was revealed... and naturally, ten people inside also appeared.

Apart from Zhang Jueyi and Zhang Li, who were facing Zhang Xian, they all had solemn expressions.

It happened in the blink of an eye!

But the instant they fully appeared in Jingling Academy, six of them rushed towards the Tianyue Squad without the slightest hesitation.

It was as if they had planned it beforehand!

"Prepare for battle!" Zhang He saw the six men but showed no panic and immediately gave the order.

In an instant, the six people made contact with the Tianyue Squad and Zhang He.

But just as they made contact with the Tianyue Squad, flames suddenly erupted from their bodies!

And this flame is as dazzling as life itself!

At this moment, Zhang He's eyes suddenly showed great shock. He understood very well what these six people wanted to do!

The rain was still falling.

It came less from the sky and more from a slender sword in Zhang Li's hand.

This sword is named Rainy Day.

The middle-aged man looked at Zhang Li with surprise. He hadn't expected his wife to use the Rainy Day weapon, which had such severe side effects.

"Is there no other way?" the middle-aged man thought to himself.

At the same time, the flames on the six people below were also imprinted in his eyes!

Upon seeing this, an idea he didn't want to believe appeared in his mind. The middle-aged man's eyes suddenly revealed a trace of confusion and sorrow, as if something was about to overflow from his eyes!

However, he quickly suppressed these emotions and regained his composure. After all, the current situation did not allow him to think too much... The enemy in front of him was very strong!

Rain above and fire below, spectacular and beautiful...

……

Not long ago! Seirei-in!

The middle-aged man walked back to Zhang Jueyi, who had already fainted, and put a silver ring on his finger...

boom!

Just then, another attack struck the great formation.

The middle-aged man watched as the cracks in the great formation continued to widen. He turned around, glanced at the sky, and muttered, "The formation is already damaged... It seems this formation won't last much longer."

Since the formation was controlled by the middle-aged man, he was very clear about its situation.

Upon hearing the middle-aged man's words, everyone's hearts sank...

"Is everyone ready?" He turned to look at the solemn-faced crowd and asked.

"Alright!" everyone responded in unison.

"Hmm!" The middle-aged man nodded: "Next, I'll talk about the method we've come up with. Although the success rate isn't high, it's better than having no method at all."

"Yes!"

After he finished speaking, the remaining eight people gathered with the middle-aged man. They were very serious, afraid of uttering a single word. After all, their lives were at stake, and they couldn't afford to be careless!

Then, the middle-aged man began to tell his story…

"First of all, we will not wait for the enemy to break the great formation. I will take the initiative to attack when we find an opportunity, so that we can catch the enemy off guard... As for the two brothers Zhang Zhan and Zhang Dou, I will entrust the final battle to you... No matter what the final result is, I thank you in advance..." Looking at Zhang Jueyi sleeping soundly in Zhang Zhan's arms, the middle-aged man felt extremely heavy-hearted.

No father wants to be separated from his son, and he was no exception.

"Clan leader, please rest assured!" Zhang Zhan and Zhang Dou didn't say much, but the determination in their words left no room for doubt.

“Good! You two brothers are skilled in combined warfare, so your chances of escaping are relatively high. Zhang Li and I have the highest cultivation levels, so we two will do our best to open an opening ahead. You two seize this opportunity…”

"Yes!"

"As everyone knows, besides the Tianyue Squad, Zhang He himself is quite strong. If we add the Tianyue Squad to the mix... Therefore, we'll leave it to you six to hold off Zhang He and the Tianyue Squad... It won't take long; with the strength of those two brothers, it'll only take a moment."

“No problem…” the middle-aged man with a square face replied in a deep voice.

The middle-aged man trusted his confidant implicitly and knew him well. Since he said there was no problem, he would do it even if it cost him his life…

“We’re fine with it too,” the other five people standing next to the square-faced man replied in unison.

However, the middle-aged man did not notice that at that moment, the six people suddenly looked at each other... They had made a decision together and received an answer from each other's eyes.

"Wait a minute..." The square-faced man's expression suddenly shifted, as if he had thought of something.

"What's wrong?" the middle-aged man asked.

"The Zhang brothers, Zhan and Dou, are holding back, looking for a chance to escape. The six of us are suppressing Zhang He and the Tianyue team. So, the clan leader and his wife are planning to hold off Zhang Xian, right?"

"That's right, and this is the best way."

"Where is the other person?"

"There's one more person? Uh...you mean that boy?" The middle-aged man suddenly remembered the figure that had been standing next to Zhang Xian.

The square-faced man nodded.

The middle-aged man fell into deep thought.

Even a young boy standing next to Zhang Xian couldn't be just there to make up the numbers; he understood this, and the other eight understood it too.

At this moment, the group's gazes once again focused on the middle-aged man, seemingly waiting for his response.

However, the middle-aged man was not omnipotent. He sighed and said, "Alas! With our current strength, there's nothing we can do... Everyone, please be careful!"

Hearing the middle-aged man's words, everyone's mood became heavy again.

But at that moment, Zhang Li spoke up.

"Don't worry too much, everyone. That boy might not be of much use in actual combat..."

"Oh?" Everyone's eyes turned to Zhang Li, waiting for her to continue.

"Actually, it's just a gut feeling... After all, given his age, even if he has some extraordinary qualities, I don't think he's really experienced any real battles... Aren't you all being a bit too out of line?" Zhang Li said calmly, but her tone revealed some dissatisfaction that they were somewhat at a loss because of a young boy.

So when Zhang Li said those words, everyone suddenly seemed to realize something and felt ashamed, including the middle-aged man...

On second thought.

Zhang Li is right. How could the First Clan be intimidated by a mere teenager? What's shameful is that these powerful individuals have even lost their most basic judgment.

Because that boy's aura was not as strong as any of theirs, which meant that he might not actually play any role in Zhang Xian's plan.

Even if he did play a role, so what? This time, we weren't very confident to begin with, and if we're too timid, we might end up with absolutely no chance.

That's just worrying unnecessarily.

They smiled bitterly to themselves.

Having considered this, everyone once again showed expressions of resignation to their fate.

Seeing that everyone's confidence had returned, Zhang Li smiled gently, but at that moment, this woman made an unwavering decision in her eyes.

"Alright! In that case, let's begin!" the middle-aged man shouted, adding to their momentum.

"Good!" Similarly, the response these people gave to the middle-aged man was absolutely full of momentum.
