Qi Guanwei stared intently at the live broadcast screen. The battlefield was filled with smoke and fire, and countless tall mechs soared and leaped nimbly and coolly between the stars in the universe.
A single punch that pierces through the air can tear apart a defensive shield.
One kick could shatter a fighter jet.
Their fighter jets' firepower was impossible to aim at and dodge nimbly, making them resemble lightning-fast mech warriors.
Seeing that our forces were being overwhelmed and suffering heavy losses, Qi Guanwei immediately gave an order.
"All mech warriors are deployed; fighter jets are relegated to the second line!"
Soon, countless mecha warriors leaped out of the spaceship hovering in the dark, rootless sea of stars, just like dumplings being dropped into a pot.
Both sides piloted special space mechs designed for interstellar combat, engaging in battle in the mysterious and dangerous sea of stars.
From a distance, countless dazzling and cool mechs were locked in combat.
Various supernatural abilities and energy cannons exploded in bursts, like fireworks blooming in the night sky—brilliant, yet incredibly destructive.
With 30,000 against 10,000, it should have been a sure win.
At least that's what Qi Guan Weihao and Qi Guan Jue think.
However, they underestimated the people Jin Shangyue brought.
No wonder they found out that Ji Chaoyun, as the crown prince of a top-tier country, only brought a hundred shadow guards to the Nine-Meeting Auction, without even bringing an army.
It turns out that they had already secretly switched the troops, bringing their own royal army with Jin Shangyue and disguising them as ordinary soldiers.
Clearly, Qi Guan Weihao and Qi Guan Jue mistook Jin Shangyue's private guard for Ji Chaoyun's royal army.
After an hour of fierce fighting, Qi Guanweihao's face was ashen, burning with rage, and filled with resentment and anger.
This was the first time he had suffered such a crushing defeat since he began leading troops into battle!
Qi Guanjue tried to calm himself down and reminded him.
"Dad, let Ancestor Xuan take action. There's no need to waste time with these lowly soldiers."
"To catch the thief, first catch the king. Just grab Jin Shangyue and Ji Chaoyun, that adulterous couple, and these soldiers will have no choice but to surrender and be slaughtered!"
Qi Guan Weihao agreed, "You're right. Let's go and ask Ancestor Xuan for help now."
"Son, it's good that you're smart, farsighted, and thoughtful. You reminded me to keep Ancestor Xuan here and prevented him from leaving first."
Qi Guanjue had learned his lesson from Ji Chaoyun, using his eyes to teach her a valuable lesson.
Therefore, he made thorough preparations for this ambush.
Knowing that Ji Chaoyun's cultivation was strange, he was afraid that even if his own father took action, he would not be able to defeat Ji Chaoyun.
At that time, Ji Chaoyun barely made a move; with just a casual flick of her finger, she made him feel like a fish on a chopping board, completely at her mercy.
His father's current cultivation level is at the peak of the Upper Grade God Emperor.
Qi Guanjue was worried that his father couldn't beat Ji Chaoyun, so just in case, he asked Qi Guan Weihai to stay behind. This was the Xuan Patriarch who was accompanying the Qi Guan family this time.
They did not allow Ancestor Xuan to leave prematurely.
Ancestor Xuan was Qi Guanjue's grandfather's half-brother.
His cultivation has reached the Perfect Saint Origin Void Realm (equivalent to a peak Emperor-level ability user or a Supreme Martial Saint).
Although he wasn't the most powerful ancestor in the Qi family, he was more than capable of dealing with Ji Chaoyun.
He refused to believe that Ji Chaoyun, a mere nineteen-year-old boy who hadn't even grown his hair yet, could possibly defeat a powerful expert at the peak of the Saint Origin Void Realm, no matter how monstrous his talent might be!
Only members of the Longwu Empire's royal family and the highest-ranking officials knew about Ji Chaoyun's actions in settling family affairs, killing his fake mother, and dealing with the royal elders.
Moreover, His Majesty of the Dragon Martial Kingdom has ordered this matter to be kept secret, and it is forbidden to spread or discuss it.
Therefore, no country had any relevant information or knew about this matter.
Otherwise, Qi Guanjue wouldn't have thought that way.
They would absolutely not dare to act so hastily against Ji Chaoyun and Jin Shangyue at this time.
Unfortunately, by the time he found out, it was too late.
Neither Ji Chaoyun nor Jin Shangyue would give him a second chance.
Qi Guan Weihao and Qi Guan Jue went to find the Xuan Laozu who was meditating in the room and explained their purpose.
The Old Ancestor Xuan was a wiry old man with a white beard, who looked to be two or three hundred years old.
It is actually two thousand years old.
A great being at the perfect Saint Origin Void Realm has a lifespan of three thousand years.
The old ancestor's droopy eyes were cold and calm to the point of being devoid of emotion and desire, which made people feel terrified.
Even Qi Guan Weihao and Qi Guan Jue dared not meet the gaze of this ancestor.
The two of them looked incredibly well-behaved at that moment.
After hearing the purpose of their visit, Ancestor Xuan spoke in a deep and indifferent tone.
"Give me their locations and portraits."
"No need, we'll deliver it to your door ourselves, so there's no need for the elderly to make the trip."
A teasing, playful female voice suddenly rang out, causing the three people in the room to instantly change their expressions.
Qi Guanweihao and Qi Guanjue turned around abruptly.
When I saw a stunningly beautiful man and woman standing side by side a dozen meters away, my eyes almost popped out of their sockets.
The shadow left by the gouging out of Qi Guanjue's eyes made him instinctively fearful and hide behind the Xuan Ancestor.
"Ancestor, it's those two!"
Qi Guanwei was also startled; how could these two have arrived here so quietly?
He demanded in shock and anger, "How did you get here?!"
Even the seemingly detached and indifferent Elder Xuan, whose eyes had suddenly widened in surprise upon seeing the two figures appear out of nowhere in the room, had his pupils tremble slightly.
His thin, tall body was unconsciously tense, his whole being tense and on guard.
Especially when he couldn't discern the difference in their cultivation levels, alarm bells rang in Xuan Laozu's mind, his eyes filled with scrutiny and apprehension.
