Lady Lian ignored the Second Elder and Tong Xuan. She first signaled Xiao Juan to lead the Yi Clan army to temporarily halt their attack, and then floated in the air to carefully observe the battle between Commander Lang and the powerful figures.
The powerful figures under Lang Ren and the Second Elder had clearly been trained beforehand. They combined ranged attacks with close combat, firmly surrounding Commander Lang. Even though Commander Lang was several levels higher than these powerful figures, he was unable to do anything to them in his mental state of chaos.
"Lang Ren, you unfilial son! You coveted the position of clan chief, and it was bad enough that you killed your adult brothers, but how could you bear to kill your sisters, and even your underage brothers and sisters? And your mothers, you... why did you not even spare your own mother?"
Lang ignored the powerful figures surrounding him and glared at Lang Ren from afar, shouting curses and his eyes wide with fury, clearly showing his extreme grief and indignation.
Upon hearing this, Wang Yao's heart skipped a beat. You see, as an insect, Lang Shuai has an extremely strong reproductive capacity. He is also the patriarch of the Zhanghuang clan. His children and concubines are not a small number. How could so many relatives be killed by his son?
Looking at Lang Ren's gloomy face, he couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine.
It seems that when Commander Lang learned of the chaos within the clan, he immediately rushed back to Tianchao City, only to find that his wife and children had all been killed. He then returned in a fit of rage, but he had no time to take control of the Zhanghuang clan, which is why the clan was in such disarray.
“Old man, ask yourself, which of your children has the highest cultivation level? Isn’t it me, Lang Ren! I advanced to the 7th level long ago and became the only one among your children who is closest to the elder level, but what did I get in return?”
"I, Lang Ren, should have been the rightful choice for clan leader long ago, but you only have eyes for Lang Bao. You even went to the Immortal Realm to invite an immortal down to ensure that he could safely marry Princess Jinxiu of the Yi Clan. Isn't this paving the way for him to take over your position as clan leader?"
"What's most hateful is that you've been keeping this from me all this time. If it weren't for the few good friends I've made in the clan over the years who got some information, I would have been completely fooled by you! None of your wives and children are any good either!"
"Besides flattering and fawning over you, what good have they ever done? In private, which one of them isn't scheming and backstabbing, which one isn't forming cliques? Which one of them doesn't have a few bastards around them? My mother was so foolish to try so hard to stop me from killing them?"
“If I become your son, I, Lang Ren, will have no brothers or sisters left. They are all my enemies! Do you want them to have the chance to stab me in the back if I leave them in this world? Of course, it's better to kill them all! I accidentally killed my mother, but I don't regret it.”
"Because only in this way can you be utterly desperate! Don't forget, now, apart from those dead ghosts, your only descendants are me, Lang Ren, and my children!"
"If you persist in your actions and kill me, Lang Ren, then you, Commander Lang, will truly be childless and utterly alone!" Lang Ren replied loudly.
Hearing this, Wang Yao was also greatly shocked by Lang Ren's viciousness.
It turns out that his killing of his own brothers and sisters, the concubines of Commander Lang, and even his own mother was a well-thought-out plan, aimed at eliminating all his rivals and even nipping any possibility of them in the bud.
However, Commander Lang could certainly find another wife and have more children. As a powerful insect demon from the Sacred Realm, his reproductive ability wasn't so easily diminished, but first he had to kill his last remaining offspring.
Even setting aside the question of whether they could actually kill him, it would be a huge psychological challenge for Commander Lang. Moreover, Lang Ren is currently surrounded by the Second Elder and other clan leaders. If a bloody battle were to break out, what would become of the Zhanghuang clan?
Furthermore, killing off one's own descendants and then raising a new generation requires a huge time investment. Coach Lang is no longer young, and after experiencing such a dramatic change, it's hard to say whether he can still maintain the spirit of his youth.
Therefore, for Lang Ren, Lang Ren's actions actually drove him to a dead end from both a spiritual and ethnic perspective. If he chooses not to admit defeat, he will have to tear down everything from the past and start over, smash everything he once cherished, including making himself childless.
In that case, even if he eventually regains power, the Zhanghuang clan will never be the same Zhanghuang clan as before, so there is little point in him continuing to fight. This is the real purpose behind Lang Ren's words.
After all, Commander Lang is a powerful demon in the Eastern Continent and even the entire Holy Domain. It would be a pipe dream for Lang Ren and the others to kill him. Moreover, if he goes crazy, the consequences would be unimaginable. Therefore, if they want to succeed in their rebellion, they can only make Commander Lang back down.
Tell Lang that he has no hope left in the tribe, and that he has been abandoned by the tribe. If he doesn't intend to destroy the tribe as well, then he has no choice but to swallow the bitter pill and let Lang Ren take over.
After all, Lang Ren is also the son of his coach, Lang Shuai, so in this sense, it can be said to be a final consolation for Lang Shuai.
"I never expected that my Yi clan would have anything to do with this place. Commander Lang, do you really want to marry my beautiful daughter Jinxiu as your daughter-in-law?" Lady Lian, who had been silent all along, suddenly asked.
"Indeed, Lord Yue Lao and I went on a mission to the Yi tribe for this very purpose, but we were misled by treacherous officials. Alas, Duo Bao is now dead, so let's not dwell on it! Commander Lang, this old man is here to assist you!"
Tongxuan gave a brief explanation, and seeing that Commander Lang was in a daze after hearing Lang Ren's words and was struggling to defend himself under the siege, he couldn't help but rush out.
"So that's how it is. So, Tongxuan asked you to come out of the mountains, and you want to see the Ape and Elephant Divine Talisman... Is it because you're afraid my beautiful child will eat Commander Lang's son?" Lady Lian turned to ask Wang Yao.
