Seeing the black water dragon make an attack posture towards them, the Grand Elder and the others all narrowed their eyes and subconsciously ordered their beasts to fight back.
Are you kidding me?
The lowest level among them is a Phantom God-level Beast Tamer, so how could a small Blackwater Dragon pose a threat to them?
Any one of the beasts present could inflict fatal damage on the Blackwater Dragon, let alone a dozen beasts attacking simultaneously.
The Black Water Dragon didn't even have time to let out a wail before it died on the spot.
No one paid any attention to the already dead Black Water Dragon; instead, they focused their attention back on Lu Yuan.
Unexpectedly, Lu Yuan suddenly seemed to be possessed by a drama queen, and he pounced on the Black Water Dragon, which was already dead beyond any doubt, while shouting mournfully.
"What are you elders doing?!"
"It is the Li family's fault that Young Master Li kidnapped Jiang Ye and brought him back to the Li family. Jiang Ye was not wrong to accidentally kill Young Master Li while trying to escape. Why do you elders want to kill him outright?"
Seeing Lu Yuan suddenly become a drama queen, the Grand Elder and the others exchanged glances and subconsciously spoke.
"What nonsense are you spouting?"
However.
Before Lu Yuan could answer, an angry shout suddenly came from afar.
"How dare you treat my son like this after leaving home! Today I will make you pay for your crimes in blood!"
Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw Jiang Chengping, the furious head of the Jiang family, summon his beast and charge towards them without saying a word, preparing his attack.
Seeing this, everyone except the Grand Elder looked panicked.
You have to know that Jiang Chengping became a true god-level beast tamer ten years ago, and his strength is incomparable to that of people like them.
So everyone turned their attention to the Grand Elder, only to find that he completely ignored Jiang Chengping and was staring intently at Lu Yuan.
"It seems I underestimated you!"
The elder's tone was somewhat gritted.
He really didn't expect Lu Yuan to have planned things this far. No wonder this kid seemed to have a split personality, crying on Jiang Ye's beast corpse. It turns out he was waiting for him here!
Faced with the Grand Elder's death stare, Lu Yuan laughed heartlessly.
"Don't rush, Elder! I have another great gift for you!"
Upon hearing this, the elder, who had already suffered two losses at Lu Yuan's hands, immediately became more vigilant.
Before he could observe carefully, Lu Yuan suddenly retreated quickly, while Jiang Chengping, enraged, charged forward with his beasts.
Of everyone present, only the Grand Elder was strong enough to rival Jiang Chengping. So he couldn't care less about the meaning behind Lu Yuan's words and could only watch Lu Yuan retreat with resentment, bracing himself to take Jiang Chengping's attack.
boom--!
The clash between true god-level beast tamers is incomparable to battles of other levels.
Moreover, Jiang Chengping held nothing back, unleashing his full power with his beast.
In an instant.
Most of the meticulously built manor was reduced to ashes.
"Cough cough cough—!"
Most of the other beast tamers around were lying on the ground, spitting blood. Only a very few who had already stepped into the True God level were still holding on, but they were pale and covered in cold sweat.
The elder, having observed the situation, quickly spoke up to explain the matter.
"Patriarch Jiang, Jiang Ye's disappearance has nothing to do with my leaving home. Don't be fooled by others..."
"Ye'er!"
Before the Grand Elder could finish speaking, Jiang Chengping suddenly roared and rushed to the corpse of the Black Water Dragon.
Upon seeing this, the Grand Elder frowned slightly.
The appearance of the Black Water Dragon was indeed unexpected, but that was not a problem. As long as Jiang Ye did not appear in the Li family, he could insist that Jiang Ye's disappearance had nothing to do with the Li family, since the Jiang family could not produce any evidence.
But.
He never expected that Jiang Chengping would find Jiang Ye's body next to the Black Water Dragon!
!!
The elder's pupils contracted instantly, and a very bad premonition rose in his heart.
really.
The thought had barely formed when Jiang Chengping suddenly flew into a rage and launched an attack on him without regard for anything else.
"Patriarch Jiang!"
Faced with Jiang Chengping's all-out attack, the Grand Elder dared not let his guard down. While mobilizing his spiritual power to command his beasts to defend, he also tried his best to persuade them.
"The truth of this matter is different from what you think. Someone is trying to sow discord between our two families. Patriarch Jiang, don't be fooled!"
"shut up!"
Jiang Chengping completely ignored the elder's earnest advice.
"I heard with my own ears that it was you, the one who left home, who kidnapped my son. And I saw my son and his beast's corpse at the place where you left home. Could it be that what I heard and saw with my own eyes was all a lie?!"
"Today, I will make you leave your homes and pay for my son's life!"
Jiang Chengping's eyes were bloodshot, clearly indicating that he had fallen into a state of extreme rage. Every move he made carried a fierce and desperate momentum. Under such an offensive, even the Grand Elder, whose strength was comparable to his, was finding it difficult to withstand.
Not only that.
Jiang Chengping did not come alone today; the family soldiers he brought with him were also wreaking havoc on the home front without regard for anything else.
All the Jiang family members present, whether they wanted to avenge Jiang Ye, take the opportunity to destroy the Li family, or had other motives, all exerted their full strength.
"...This was all part of your plan?"
Li Liuxin, who had been taken to a relatively safe area by Lu Yuan, looked at the scene of the two great families of Wanjietian tearing each other apart and killing each other, and her expression was somewhat complicated.
Families of the Jiang and Li stature are unlikely to easily break off relations and engage in a full-blown fight.
Even when the two companies were at their most bitter, they were just secretly suppressing each other and fighting for business. After all, they were all in the same circle and would run into each other all the time. When it mattered most, they had to prioritize their own interests.
But now...
Li Liuxin turned to look at Lu Yuan beside her, whose lips always wore a faint smile. Her emotions kept changing, and finally she sighed and spoke as if in a murmur.
"You must have suffered a lot, I'm so sorry..."
Although Li Liuxin's voice was very soft, Lu Yuan heard it clearly with his hearing, and his expression paused.
After a long while, he simply shook his head slightly.
"It's all in the past."
While the two were talking, the battle between the Grand Elder and Jiang Chengping was also coming to an end.
The elder commanded one of his beasts to fight Jiang Chengping, and in a moment when Jiang Chengping's attack was interrupted, he used another beast to flash behind Jiang Chengping and plunged the blade directly into his chest.
"Since you insist on becoming my enemy, then the Jiang family has no reason to exist!"
As the Grand Elder withdrew his blade, Jiang Chengping collapsed limply to the ground. Even as he breathed his last, his eyes remained wide open, staring intently in the direction of Jiang Ye's corpse.
Seeing their patriarch killed, the remaining Jiang family members immediately lost their momentum and began to be suppressed by those who had left the family.
Seeing that the situation was gradually calming down, the elder's expression gradually relaxed.
Although the Jiang family came to retaliate after being instigated by Lu Yuan, given how things have developed, it would be better to go with the flow and directly annex the Jiang family. At that time, the Li family's status in the Myriad Realms Heaven would be elevated to a higher level.
Thinking of this, the elder couldn't help but smile.
However, at that moment, a silver light suddenly flashed from behind.
puff!
The sound of a sharp weapon piercing flesh rang out, and the First Elder coughed up a mouthful of blood, struggling to look back.
"What?"
Then he saw Lu Yuan appear behind him at some point, looking at him with a smile.
"Elder, aren't you being far too careless? Don't forget I'm still here!"
As he spoke.
Lu Yuan twirled the dagger in his hand.
"ah--!"
The elder couldn't help but let out a scream.
The Li family members, who were fighting the Jiang family, finally noticed the commotion on the elder's side, but it was too late. As Lu Yuan pulled out the dagger, the elder fell to the ground and died.
"Elder!"
The scene, which had been one of intense fighting, suddenly became complicated, and everyone's eyes were fixed on Lu Yuan.
Strangely, the Li family members, who should have been the ones most eager to kill Lu Yuan, all took a step back as if they were wary of something.
Just as the atmosphere was becoming somewhat delicate, the Grand Elder, who had been dead, suddenly stood up again. Then, strange phenomena occurred: dark clouds filled the sky, and a strong wind arose.
Lu Yuan stood there, frowning involuntarily.
roar--!
Suddenly.
A fierce roar rang out, and the Grand Elder's body was torn apart from the inside out by a foreign object. A terrifying figure then appeared in front of everyone, and everyone present, including Lu Yuan, felt an extremely terrifying pressure!
"What...what is this thing?!"
...
While working with his head down, Mu Beiye was suddenly startled. His right eye turned pure white, and he looked up at the distant sky as if he had a premonition, his voice trembling slightly.
"The cataclysmic disaster... has begun."
