A sudden burst of boundless ruthlessness erupted from Wang Du's cloudy eyes.
"It's Lu Xuan."
As the news spread, what terrified the Wang family even more than the various forces that surrounded them was Lu Xuan, who appeared out of nowhere in the center of the square.
No matter what, the major forces outside would never dare to tear down their last shred of "decency" and take action against the Wang family, as that would truly destroy the most basic order of the world of supernatural beings.
But Lu Xuan, who is so close at hand, is a real and tangible crisis.
He couldn't have come here just to invite the Wang family to dinner, could he?
Chapter 169: I love rainy days the most.
"Damn it, wasn't he supposed to still be in the Central China region? How could it be so fast?"
"Wasn't there still a day left on the countdown? Why is it starting now?"
"Hiss! Is it possible that they said within seven days, not seven days later?"
Is it possible to exclude that day from the count?
"Can't you guys even get the point right?"
Even as Lu Xuandu stormed into the Wang family's residence, with a sword already planted in his forehead, these people were still discussing the countdown.
Right in the middle of the pavilion, an old man with a hunched back and eyebrows and beard that dragged on the ground suddenly leaned on his cane.
"Enough! Listen to me, everyone."
The Wang family fell silent, and even Wang Du, who could no longer suppress his anger under the pavilion, looked wary.
That was a branch of the Wang family from Jinyang. Not to mention the Wang family, most of the Wang surname in the entire world of supernatural beings and in the country originated from Jinyang.
The Wang family branch in Jinyang, located in the place of origin of the Wang clan, naturally developed better than other branches and implicitly became the leader of many Wang family branches.
Faced with a real external crisis, the "Wang family" seemed to unite and once again became one of the four great families.
Wang De, whose hair and beard dragged on the ground, looked at Wang Du and said coldly.
"You've waited all this time just to see Lu Xuan?"
Wang Du also spoke with a murderous look on his face.
"Lu Xuan destroyed my Wang family, and I will drag him down with me even in death."
"You don't think that after he wiped out the main branch of the Wang family, he would let you branch families go, do you?"
"The entire Chen family of Chen Village, who colluded with Quanxing, was wiped out. He wasn't just targeting Quanxing and the main Wang family. Do you really think you can escape?"
"So, are you going to join me in dealing with Lu Xuan, or run for your lives and wait for him to come knocking on your door?"
As soon as Wang Du finished speaking, everyone in the Wang family was shocked.
"Chen Family Village has been wiped out? How come I didn't know about that?"
"How can this be?"
"Wang Du, you old bastard, did you plan to make us all go to our deaths?"
The Wang family was in an uproar. Most of them didn't even know that Chen Family Village had been destroyed. If they had known—
They ran away long ago.
Are you kidding me? Do you really think we're not afraid of dying?
The massacre of the Chen family in Chen Village clearly indicates that Lu Xuan intends to turn against the powerful clans.
If that's the case, the Wang family, as one of the four great families and also the family that has a grudge against Lu Xuan, will naturally be the first to be targeted and made an example of.
If they had known this earlier, they would have run away long ago.
Able to block their sources of information...
It must have been Wang Du, that old bastard, who had been plotting this for a long time, intending to drag all of them into a fight against Lu Xuan.
Even Wang De's face was gloomy.
He was one of the few people who knew about the destruction of Chenjiazhuang, and even knew that the outside forces had come to "observe the ceremony".
"Too late!"
After learning that Lu Xuan had arrived near the Wang family and even sent a notice to Nadutong Company to attend the ceremony, Wang De couldn't help but want to take direct action against Wang Du.
Unfortunately, Lu Xuan arrived too quickly.
I shouldn't have hesitated to make a move because of so-called "respectability" and my greed for the scroll in Wang Du's hands.
Now he himself has been dragged into this mess by Wang Du.
"Wang Du, you should know that my Wang family would never die for you."
Wang De said coldly.
Wang Du, being quite a bachelor, raised the scroll in his hand.
"Either kill Lu Xuan today, and you can take this scroll; from now on, you will be the head of the Wang family."
"Either you leave now and wait for Lu Xuan to come and kill you."
"Hehe~ What do you...choose?"
Wang Du let out a cold laugh that sent chills down Wang De's spine.
Wang De's expression grew increasingly cold; he had no other choice.
On one hand, there is the inheritance of the family's "name" and "equipment" to become the new royal family.
On one hand, there's the current desperate, disregard-the-all-costs, humiliating retreat, and even the lingering concerns about the future—
The fact that Lu Xuan destroyed Chen Family Village shows that he would never show mercy and would definitely take action against them.
Even now, the gathering of so many branches of the Wang family might all be part of Lu Xuan's plan...
Crazy, all crazy!
Lu Xuan, who dared to raise a butcher's knife against the families of the supernatural world, is a madman; Wang Du, who wants to drag the entire Wang family down with him, is also a madman.
He slammed his cane down hard.
Wang De's voice echoed throughout the square.
"Kill Lu Xuan!"
"Kill Lu Xuan!"
"Kill Lu Xuan!!!"
Finally, the entire Wang family erupted in a roar that seemed capable of shattering the clouds.
The entire Wang family came to life, seemingly ready to unleash the formidable power of one of the four great families and utterly crush Lu Xuan.
Suddenly, countless techniques lit up, and all sorts of supernatural abilities from the world of supernatural beings were unleashed from the hands of the Wang family members.
This has always been the way of powerful families—relentlessly plundering resources and expanding like cancer cells.
Just like Wang Ai's strategy of protecting his money with his fists and maintaining the Wang family's status through capital means, thus implicitly controlling the world of supernatural beings.
The plundering by the powerful families in the world of supernatural beings is even more thorough.
Just like when the Wang family tried to seize the Spirit Binding and Commanding Generals from Feng Tianyang, and later when Wang Ai tried to seize the Qi Body Source Flow and Feng Hou Qi Men from Wang Ye and Zhang Chulan.
The "supernatural abilities" of the supernatural world are also a form of wealth.
In a short period of time, no fewer than a hundred different methods were used by the Wang family members, densely covering the entire Wang family compound.
To put it nicely, it's the heritage of a thousand-year-old family.
To put it bluntly, it's the countless bones that the Wang family has plundered over the past thousand years.
Among the endless supernatural abilities, there are also many "spirits" entangled in black energy.
For a powerful family like the Wang family, the method of summoning spirits and commanding generals is arguably the most suitable for them.
Not only can they use the power of the royal family to forcibly plunder or even kill "elves," but they can also squeeze out the last bit of value—the souls—from those peasants who die at the hands of the royal family.
It sounds really nice to hear that those peasants who are thinking about retribution even on their deathbeds have to work for you after they die.
Unfortunately, this technique, treasured by the main branch of the Wang family, was destroyed before it could shine in a suitable setting, as most of the elite troops perished in Lu Xuan's sword light.
Subsequently, the Wang family's branch members used the same methods they had used to torture Feng Tianyang to extract information from the main branch of the Wang family.
Even now, among these overwhelming "spirits" sweeping towards Lu Xuan, there are also the souls of Wang family members.
The main focus is on avoiding waste.
Seeing their own blood relatives being turned into spirit servants, the main branch of the Wang family was so angry that they nearly died.
"The overall situation is of utmost importance; killing Lu Xuan is the priority."
Wang Du let out a furious roar.
The remaining members of the main branch of the Wang family could only grit their teeth and continue their attack on Lu Xuan.
All sorts of spirits gathered there, including mountain spirits and ghosts, strange people and the souls of the dead, as well as various "immortals".
That's right! It's a celestial being. After Guan Shihua manifested her spirit-binding and commanding abilities, she almost never entered Shanhaiguan Pass. But how could the Wang family obediently follow the rules?
On the surface, the Wang family doesn't leave the seclusion, but behind the scenes they are secretly hunting down those immortals.
Even more impressively, a magnificent scroll was slowly unfolding, the rustling of the pages drowning out the sound of the rain.
Wang Du, Wang De, and other elders of the Wang family stood at the back, their eyes fixed intently on the scroll in Wang Du's hand, a testament to the Wang family's accumulated heritage over a thousand years.
The next moment! Countless supernatural powers and techniques rained down on Lu Xuan.
One of the fastest-rushing members of the Wang family had already reached Lu Xuan.
With a flick of his paintbrush, he created a weapon formed from condensed ink, displaying a sharpness that surpassed that of ordinary weapons.
Use the brush to depict spirit, use the brush to depict objects.
The Wang family's most trump card is still the Divine Paint.
He used divine paint to depict the strongest weapon in his imagination, confident that this one strike would be enough to shatter everything.
Especially now, as Lu Xuan is besieged by the Wang family's countless supernatural abilities.
