......
The moonlight, like water, illuminated the entire city of Yanjing, showcasing its prosperity, bright lights, and captivating beauty.
But behind the scenes, undercurrents were surging.
News of the chaos in the Han family had spread throughout Yanjing City. People from all walks of life, including business, politics, and the military, had heard about it and could hardly believe it.
Overnight, countless people discussed and speculated about the truth of the matter and its final outcome.
In an instant, all forces were shaken, and countless hidden agents surfaced.
After all, the four major families are the pillars of the entire China. If they were to collapse, it would be a huge blow to this world.
The Xu family has always kept a low profile and stayed out of worldly affairs, the Lan family has avoided the world, the Zhou family has been severely weakened by the uproar, and the Han family has started another major battle. The situation in this world has suddenly become unpredictable.
Xu Family Manor.
Xu Xiwang sat in the pavilion, gazing at the lake in a daze.
"Young clan leader, you wanted to see me."
Xu Qingfeng silently drifted into the pavilion and knelt on one knee respectfully.
Xu Xiwang raised his head and said coldly, "Have you settled the people in?"
"Reporting to the young patriarch, everything has been settled. Elder Wan is treating Han Yijian and the others from the Han family, and Han Huaiwei has been arranged to rest."
"What news is there from the Han family?"
"I heard... the Han family has released information that they were attacked by an unknown powerful figure tonight, resulting in numerous deaths and injuries. The eldest young master of the Han family and several powerful members of the main lineage are missing. The elders of the Han family are all silent, and the elder of the Law Enforcement Hall, Han Zhen, is nowhere to be found. Currently, the Han family is headed by Han Bin, the fifth-generation ancestor of the Han family with the Dark Body."
"The Dark Body...the fifth-generation ancestor of the Han family...who controls the Han family."
Xu Xiwang's eyes were filled with complex emotions as she muttered to herself, "Has that old bastard Han Zhen disappeared? He's dragged this out long enough, but he's paid such a high price. I'm afraid Han Zhen is..."
Upon seeing this, Xu Qingfeng hesitated to speak.
Xu Xiwang composed himself and said calmly, "Give the order to all spies to keep an eye on the Han family's movements."
Xu Qingfeng accepted the order and was about to turn and leave when he suddenly turned back and asked, "Young Clan Leader, what danger did you encounter at the Han Family?"
Xu Xiwang looked at him with a complicated expression and shook his head, saying, "It's nothing, I'm fine now."
......
"Boom!"
Just as Xu Qingfeng left, a muffled groan like thunder suddenly echoed across the distant horizon.
Xu Xiwang frowned slightly. He seemed to vaguely sense a terrifying pressure descending, as if some horrific being was about to awaken.
"This oppressive force is..."
He suddenly stood up and flew towards the sky, gazing into the distance.
"Could it be..." Xu Xiwang was shaken as he considered a possibility.
"roar--!"
"hold head high--!"
Two golden rays streaked across the night sky above the Dragon Mansion.
Two enormous phantom dragons coiled in the clouds, roaring repeatedly, their roars shaking the entire land of China.
"Dragon, oh dragon!"
"A dragon? My God, it's just a phantom of a dragon?"
"My God, are there still dragons in this world?"
Countless ordinary people looked up at the strange phenomenon in the sky, their eyes wide with horror, their bodies trembling.
Dragons are auspicious omens!
"Run! The dragon is going to eat people!"
"Run! Run away!"
Countless people screamed and ran in panic, fearing they would be eaten if they were a step too slow.
Within China, countless martial arts practitioners sensed the anomaly and rushed to the Dragon Mansion on their swords to find out what was going on.
Xu Xiwang stood in mid-air, looking down. He saw a giant python coiled around the dragon's body. The dragon struggled, but it was unable to break free.
The giant python twisted its body, its tail swept across, and the dragon howled in agony, turning into a cloud of blood mist that exploded.
Xu Xiwang's pupils shrank sharply: "This is not a real dragon, but a phantom, representing the calamity of the Dragon Palace. The sudden appearance of strange phenomena in the Dragon Palace may mean that the great battle in the Abyss of Sin has begun."
Just then, a deafening roar suddenly erupted from the sky: "A fight to the death! When we return to this realm, there will be no peace in the world! Chaos will reign, and all living beings will suffer!"
The voice was filled with resentment, as if it contained an overwhelming hatred, which sent chills down one's spine.
"Hahaha! Kill him!"
Immediately afterwards, another sinister and evil roar exploded, causing everyone's heads to ache.
"boom!"
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
With one explosion after another, Xu Xiwang felt the sky darken and the world filled with overwhelming malevolent energy, as if millions of ferocious demons wanted to devour the heavens and destroy everything.
"roar!"
Another earth-shattering roar followed, and then a huge, illusory figure tore through the air, shattering the void.
"roar!"
"roar!"
Immediately following were three more ferocious and arrogant roars.
Four ferocious phantoms rushed towards various parts of the world, each exuding a terrifying aura, as if they were demons crawling out of the deepest hell, suffocating everyone.
......
at the same time.
Nanzhou City, north of the Yangtze River, is one of the safest large cities in China, and the military headquarters is located here.
Jiangbei Military Region, in the center of the military region compound.
A majestic building stands tall, occupying a vast area, ancient and solemn, bearing the marks of time.
The building was heavily guarded, with squads of uniformed soldiers patrolling, their eyes alert and sharp, as cold and piercing as those of eagles.
"alarm!"
"An unidentified creature is flying towards our city from the sky at a speed of 350 meters per second!"
"This creature is extremely dangerous!"
"He's coming towards us! He'll be reaching our city soon!"
