Chapter 42 Murong's sudden change threatens the extinction of his clan

Eternal Night Empire, Murong Family.

"You mean, Yuntian rebelled and was killed by the empress?"

An old man with white hair and a black robe stood in the center of the hall, his eyebrows flying like swords, and his eyes were cold as he looked at the man kneeling on the ground.

This person is none other than the previous head of the Murong family, Murong Yunhai.

The terrifying aura at the peak of the integration stage filled the Murong family hall, making everyone breathless.

"Reporting to the old family master, it is absolutely true! It is said that the third prince was beheaded by... the family master and his protector, and the empress was furious!"

"Now, the protectors of the third prince have been wiped out, and the royal people are already coming to kill us!"

"Old Patriarch, what should I do?"

The man on the ground was sweating profusely, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead, but he didn't dare to wipe it off, he just lowered his head and admitted his mistake.

"You bastard, what are you talking about! The young master of the Murong family has already married the third prince. How could Yuntian kill the third prince, and how could he rebel?"

The old man roared angrily, grabbed the man's clothes on the ground, and the strength in his hand suddenly exploded.

Pfft...

The man on the ground was immediately knocked away several meters away, blood spurted from his mouth, and he fell heavily to the ground. His body twitched twice, and he still said with difficulty: "Old Patriarch... what the disciple said... is absolutely true..."

Seeing his disciple's sincere words, Murong Yuncai let go of his hand, turned around, looked at the man kneeling on the ground with an ashen face, and shouted sternly: "Yuntian...is really...dead?"

The man on the ground raised his head with difficulty, his eyes full of sorrow and helplessness. He nodded with difficulty, and his voice was as weak as a mosquito: "The soul lamp of Murong Patriarch has long been broken, why should the old Patriarch know so well... So I ask... …"

"Oh, God is going to destroy my Murong family!"

The white-haired old man sighed decadently, his eyes full of despair.

Twenty-five years ago, he still vividly remembered the scene where he joined forces with other ministers to impeach the Lin family for Lin Bao's rebellion.

I never thought... things would turn around!

He slowly turned around, turned his back to the man, and said in a rough voice: "Hurry up and take Xue'er and the rest of the clan to escape. The farther away the better, the empress... I will drag her with you."

The man on the ground's heart suddenly shrank, and his voice was trembling: "Old Master, you..."

"Go quickly!"

Murong Yunhai suddenly turned his head and stared at the man on the ground with sharp eyes.

"Yes...obey...order!"

The man on the ground was trembling all over and his voice became smaller and smaller.

Murong Yunhai remained silent. After a while, he sighed: "Go, my Murong family...can't give up!"

After hearing this, the man finally stood up, his face full of sadness, and turned around to leave the hall.

After seeing the man leave, the old man breathed a sigh of relief.

After a while, he took out a jade pendant from his arms and gently touched the lines carved on it.

In the pattern, a red lotus pattern can be vaguely seen, and above the pattern, there is a faint and terrifying pressure.

"My ancestors, please forgive me for being incompetent and failing to protect the family!"

The white-haired old man murmured to himself, with a look of deep regret in his eyes.

…

"Kill, kill, kill!!"

"Invade Murong's house and kill the rebels!"

"We avenge the third prince!"

"kill!"

…

Outside the main hall, violent and exciting sounds were heard, and the sound was like a tsunami.

Hearing the sound, the guards in the Murong family's main hall ran out of the main hall one after another, as if facing a formidable enemy.

They saw this amazing scene in front of them.

I saw that the entire city wall was densely packed with soldiers, all holding sharp blades and filled with murderous intent.

In front of them was a group of tall and powerful monks.

All those monks are strong men above the integration stage.

Among them, the man leading the group was none other than the general Ye Batian who had been guarding the border for many years in the Yongye Empire.

As early as decades ago, Ye Batian's cultivation had reached the half-step Mahayana realm.

"Hahaha~!"

Ye Batian smiled wildly, clenched his fists, and his eyes flashed with excitement and bloodlust: "Brother Yunhai, by the order of the empress, we must kill the rebels!"

Murong Yunhai looked at Ye Batian's arrogant face, his eyes narrowed, and there was a cold arc at the corner of his mouth, but there was deep helplessness and bitterness in his eyes.

Did even Ye Batian come?

It seems that the empress is determined to destroy the Murong family this time!

"Hmph! General Ye is indeed very capable. He actually dares to kill my Murong family. He thinks that my Murong family is easy to bully!"

Murong Yunhai glanced coldly at the surrounding troops with sharp eyes.

"Hmph! I have killed countless powerful barbarians in the border areas. What does a mere Murong family mean? Brother Yunhai, give up your resistance. Today you Murong family...cannot escape even if you have wings!"

As Ye Batian's voice fell, the crowd boiled.

"kill!"

The soldiers roared and rushed towards the Murong family's main hall, waving their spears to kill.

Ye Batian took the lead and led his soldiers to kill the Murong family's mansion.

Murong Yunhai looked at this scene with infinite anger in his heart.

The largest family in the Yongye Empire was actually attacked today?

"Open the formation!"!

Murong Yunhai roared angrily, his energy surged out from his body, and he instantly formed a giant defensive formation.

Boom boom boom!

The roar resounded throughout the world, and a formation pattern appeared on the ground.

Murong's old master stood in the middle of the pattern, and a golden light flickered.

Upon seeing this, the strong men of the Murong family in the Fusion stage stood by to support him with all their strength.

Immediately, the formation's light over the main hall became even brighter.

A large number of spirit stones were absorbed into the pattern, and the light above the hall became brighter and brighter.

"Boom!"

"Boom!!"

The moment the formation was formed, countless attacks hit the formation one after another.

However, it couldn't shake the formation at all.

"Ahhh!"

Almost in an instant, the bodies of powerful monks in the royal family suddenly exploded and turned into countless black mist, floating in the air.

"Old guy, do you still want to resist?"

Ye Batian glanced at the old Patriarch Murong indifferently, his eyes cold.

Murong Yunhai's face was extremely ugly, and he looked at the soldiers who were charging forward with extremely sinister eyes.

"Even if I risk my life today, I will make you pay a heavy price!"

With a cold snort, Murong Yunhai flipped his right palm, and a ball of flame came out of thin air.

The flame was spinning in his hand, exuding scorching heat, as if it could burn up the sky at any time.

"Burning Heaven Technique?"

Seeing the scorching flames, the faces of everyone watching around changed slightly, with a hint of fear in their eyes.

Burning Heaven Technique, as the name suggests, is to fuse the spiritual energy in one's body into flames.

Moreover, the flames condensed from the pure spiritual energy in his body are extremely powerful!

A full blow from the peak powerhouse in the integration stage!

Murong's old master's body was burning with blazing fire, and he disappeared in a flash.

Ye Batian's eyes flashed slightly, and his figure flashed and appeared at the place where Murong's old patriarch had just stood.

"Humph, it's just a little trick!"

Ye Batian snorted coldly, and lightly drew his finger into the air. A dark aperture emerged, instantly surrounding the space where Murong's old family master was.

At this time, a strange fluctuation came from the dark circle of light, instantly covering the entire hall.

Many monks in the hall looked horrified, with anxious expressions on their faces. They wanted to break through the formation, but to no avail. An extremely powerful restriction blocked them, making it difficult for them to move even half a step forward.

"ah!"

Piercing screams resounded in the formation, and soul fires burned in the formation.

Murong Yunhai's figure appeared, covered in blood, and his face was as pale as paper.

"Old Patriarch!!"

Seeing that Murong Yunhai was injured, the elders and guards of the Murong family could not help but scream in surprise, their eyes tearing open.

"Ye Gou, you're only half a step into Mahayana, but there's nothing I can do about it!"

The old patriarch Murong stood within the formation. The flames on his body had been extinguished a lot, but he still looked extremely weak.

There are also injuries on his body, not only the injuries on the skin, but also the wounds on the soul are very serious. If it were not for his unpredictable strength and reaching the peak of the integration stage a long time ago, he would have died here!

Obviously, Ye Batian's weird runes had severely injured him before!

"Hahaha! Old guy, you take yourself too seriously!"

Ye Batian's face was ferocious, and a flash of sarcasm flashed in his eyes: "An ant like you is still far from stopping me, Ye Batian!"

"Since you want to seek death, I will help you!"

Ye Batian snorted coldly, a chill flashed in his eyes, stretched out his left arm, and a long sword appeared in his hand.

"cut!!"

Ye Batian shouted loudly, used his wrists hard, and slashed towards the large formation in front of him!

A half-step Mahayana strongman's full blow!

boom!

The terrifying power swept across, and the formation trembled violently, and then, cracks appeared throughout the formation.

Click!

Click! !

There are more and more cracks in the formation, and it is about to become unsustainable.

Poof...

Bright red blood splashed out, and the hall was suddenly filled with a strong smell of blood.

Ye Batian's move was astonishingly powerful.

In the main hall, all the strong men of the Murong family flew out one after another, fell heavily to the ground, and vomited blood.

Ye Batian glanced at everyone with cold eyes, and the corners of his mouth curved into a bloodthirsty arc.

"Old guy, I think you can still block a few swords!"

After Ye Batian finished speaking, he swung his sword again and slashed hard on the formation of the main hall.

"Pfft..."

There was another violent roar, and the formation in the hall finally couldn't withstand his attack and exploded instantly.

Seeing that the terrifying sword light was about to slash down on everyone in the Murong family, Murong Yunhai's eyes were about to burst.

Murong Yunhai's eyes were red, and almost at the same time, his feet slammed on the ground, and his body suddenly rose up, turning into an afterimage, directly facing Ye Batian's sword light.

"Rumble..."

Boom boom boom boom...

Two huge energies collided in the air, and deafening sounds continued to sound.

The stone walls and walls of the main hall all collapsed under this tyrannical energy.

The battle between the two was as dazzling as the collision of Mars and stars.

Waves of tyrannical energy rushed out from the place where the two men met, sweeping in all directions.

"Cough cough cough..."

"ah……"

Everyone in the Murong family fell to the ground, vomiting out large mouthfuls of blood.

Murong Yunhai's level was not as good as Ye Batian's. In addition, he had suffered heavy losses before, so the situation at this moment was almost one-sided.

Murong Yunhai was completely beaten!
