Lan Yanjue looked at the elders present, "Is there still no news from the Third Elder?" It has been almost half a month, and logically, there should be news coming back.
"Previously, there was news that Fengtian Sect refused to release the people, but there has been no news since then." said the fifth elder.
"Could something have happened to the Third Elder?" the Fourth Elder guessed.
"I think the chance of betrayal is greater. The Third Elder is originally on Lan Yanjing's side." The Seventh Elder snorted coldly.
Lan Yanjue raised his hand, motioning for everyone to be quiet, and then said, "Fifth Elder, please contact the Third Elder to see what the situation is. Seventh Elder, please send someone to keep an eye on the people on the Third Elder's side, and report immediately if there is any movement." He really didn't trust the Third Elder.
"Yes!" everyone responded and stood up to prepare to do as Lan Yanjue instructed.
At this moment, a chaotic sound of footsteps was heard outside, "Master, something bad has happened! The former master has broken in with his men."
"What?!" Everyone was shocked at the same time.
"How many of them came?" Lan Yanjue asked in a deep voice. He had underestimated Lan Yanjing. He hadn't expected him to dare to come to the Lan family.
"More than a hundred people." said the disciple who came to report.
Lan Yanjue burst into laughter upon hearing this. "A mere hundred or so dare to come to my Lan family and cause trouble? Let's go out and meet them." He had thought he had overestimated Lan Yanjing, but he hadn't expected him to be so foolish. Even with five hundred people, let alone a hundred, it would be a foolish dream to think they could shake the Lan family. The Lan family was no ordinary small family.
Lan Yanjing stood in the square outside the meeting hall, watching Lan Yanjue and the elders come out. He narrowed his eyes, a hint of hatred flashing in his eyes, "Brother, how are you?"
"Thanks to you, everything is fine." Lan Yanjue glanced at the group of people behind Lan Yanjing. "Do you think you can take back the Lan family with this rabble? What a foolish dream."
"Whether it's just wishful thinking or not, Big Brother will soon find out." Lan Yanjing sneered at Lan Yanjue. Although he only brought a hundred or so people with him this time, they were all elite disciples of the Fengtian Sect, and among them was the Fengtian Sect elder Gu Jintian, whose strength alone could instantly kill everyone here.
"Then I'll wait." Lan Yanjue said indifferently.
"Master, the disciples have gathered." The ninth elder came quickly with a group of disciples from the Lan family.
Lan Yanjue glanced at the thousands of disciples brought by the Ninth Elder and laughed at Lan Yanjing. "It's only been a short time since you last became the head of the family, and you've already forgotten how many disciples the family has."
Lan Yanjing smiled coldly and looked at the disciples present. "Fellow disciples of the Lan family! I am not here to deal with you this time. I am here to give you a chance to choose. Disciples who are willing to continue to support me, please stand on the right. Otherwise, you will be my enemy, Lan Yanjing. Once I take action, I will show no mercy!"
The disciples looked at each other, not knowing what to choose.
After a long time, a disciple quietly walked to the right, followed by the second disciple, the third disciple, and more disciples continued to walk to the right.
Lan Yanjue was furious when he saw this. He had never expected so many disciples to support him. He had underestimated Lan Yanjing.
Seeing that one-third of the disciples were willing to stand on his side, Lan Yanjing nodded in satisfaction and looked at the remaining disciples, "We still have ten breaths of time."
The remaining disciples hesitated, looked at Lan Yanjue, and then at Lan Yanjing.
Lan Yanjue snorted coldly, "Choosing Lan Yanjing is equivalent to betraying the family. You should think carefully."
Several disciples who were about to go to the right stopped immediately. The Lan family was their clan, and their relatives were here. If they were convicted of a clan crime, their relatives would also be implicated.
"There are still three breaths of time." Lan Yanjing said calmly.
Perhaps Lan Yanjue’s words just now had an effect. The remaining disciples no longer hesitated and just looked at Lan Yanjue waiting for his orders.
"Disciples of the Lan family, listen up! From now on, for every traitor you kill, you will receive ten spirit stones as a reward. If you can capture Lan Yanjing alive, you will receive ten thousand high-grade spirit stones." Lan Yanjue waved his hand at the remaining disciples.
The remaining disciples immediately shouted and rushed towards Lan Yanjing and his group.
Although the disciples standing on the right had already regretted it in their hearts, they had already made their choice and could only bite the bullet and face the disciples who were rushing towards them.
Lan Yanjing looked at Gu Jintian, bowed to him and said, "Sorry to trouble you, Senior Gu!" Gu Jintian was the greatest fighting force on his side.
Gu Jintian nodded, raised his hand, and summoned dozens of formation flags. He had already set up the formation here without anyone noticing, and now all he needed to do was activate it.
As the formation flag fell, the disciples who rushed up were seen trapped in the formation, and wailing and screaming rang out one after another.
Lan Yanjing slowly closed his eyes. He really didn't want to see such a scene.
Lan Yanjue and several elders stared at the scene in a daze. How could this happen?
"Lan Yanjing, are these all Feng Tianzong members?" Lan Yanjue looked at Lan Yanjing angrily and unwillingly. He hadn't expected Feng Tianzong to actually send someone to help Lan Yanjing. Lan Yanjing was now penniless, and he truly didn't understand why Feng Tianzong would make such a deal that offered them no benefit at all.
"It's too late to realize this now, Lan Yanjue. Let's end this today." Lan Yanjing looked at Lan Yanjue with a smile, but there was a hint of sadness in his eyes. After all, Lan Yanjue was his elder brother, and he really didn't want to go to such a point where he would fight to the death.
"Lan Yanjing, if you have the guts, just fight me face to face. Asking for help is pointless." Lan Yanjue shouted unwillingly. He had planned everything, but he had never expected Su Jinyue to actually help Lan Yanjing.
"Alright!" Lan Yanjing summoned his magical weapon and said to Gu Jintian, "Senior Gu! Let's remove the formation for now."
Gu Jintian nodded, raised his hand, and the formation vanished. Su Jinyue told him to fully cooperate with Lan Yanjing.
The Lan family disciples within the formation breathed a sigh of relief, their hearts filled with regret. Judging from the current situation, the former patriarch clearly had the upper hand. It was a shame they had chosen the wrong side.
Lan Yanjing took a step forward, summoned his magical weapon, and looked at Lan Yanjue, "Come on!"
Lan Yanjue also raised his hand and summoned his magical weapon. He shouted and rushed towards Lan Yanjing. Just as he was about to rush in front of Lan Yanjing, he suddenly turned sharply and quickly summoned his flying sword to fly out. As long as he was alive, he would have a chance to make a comeback in the future.
No one expected that Lan Yanjue would escape suddenly, and they were unable to react for a while.
