Thirty or forty loose immortals are no small force; they can rival half the combat power of their Sixth Peak.
"We need to inform the son-in-law about this," Wu Tongyu said hastily, "Luyang, go and invite all the great demon seniors who are still on the peak to come out and help. I'll go to Shending Peak to find the son-in-law. We'll meet at the foot of the main peak in a while."
"Okay," Lu Yang nodded in agreement and turned to go find someone.
Watching Wu Tongyu and Lu Yang hurriedly leave, the gatekeeper, who had come to report the news, realized he hadn't finished speaking and stammered, "Oh, right, that person also lied and claimed to know Master Hei and Young Master Ji, and introduced himself as Wang An..."
But by then Wu Dongyu and Lu Yang had already gone far away, and no one heard his whispered complaints.
Upon hearing Wu Tongyu's report, Shang Xiye dared not delay and quickly followed him down Shending Peak, finding the matter quite strange:
The main Dongdan clan resides in the Western Regions. Of the Dongdan clan members who accompanied them this time, only Dongdan Jinying remains missing. She alone has neither the ability nor the courage to seek revenge at the Dan Sect. Furthermore, the main Dongdan clan wouldn't receive the news so quickly, let alone send anyone to seek revenge so soon.
As for the Zhou family, if they want revenge, they should just come and cause trouble openly and honestly; there's no need for them to disguise themselves or hide their identities.
Even with Shang Xiye's exceptional intelligence, he couldn't immediately figure out who would come looking for trouble at this time.
The gatekeeper who came in to deliver the message was so excited to see Shang Xiye personally that he completely forgot the words he hadn't had a chance to say.
The group arrived at the mountain gate in a grand and imposing manner.
Especially those powerful demons, who had already drawn their sleeves and were ready to fight.
No sooner had they stepped outside than a flamboyant figure burst out of the glittering golden sedan chair and headed straight for Shang Xiye.
"How dare you! You dare to launch a sneak attack!" Just as Lu Yang was about to step forward to stop him, the man exclaimed in surprise, "Brother-in-law! Why are you here to pick me up? Where are my two older brothers and sister?"
Lu Yang's foot, which had been rushing halfway, came to an abrupt halt, his fingertips barely stopping half a meter in front of Wang An.
The people who came to intercept Wang An were only one meter away from Lu Yang.
Upon seeing Wang An's nouveau riche appearance, Shang Xiye was initially delighted, but then felt a headache coming on. He forced a stern face and said, "I advise you to rephrase your words and repeat what you just said."
Wang An's outstretched hand, which was reaching to hug Shang Xiye, stopped in front of his shoulder, and he froze on the spot: "...!"
It's unbelievable that after more than two hundred years of separation, his brother-in-law is still so domineering and charming!
He'd been a big shot for over a hundred years and had almost forgotten that his brother-in-law was a fearsome figure not to be trifled with.
Shang Xiye's divine power quickly brought back the feeling Wang An had back in Dazhao.
His imposing aura crumbled, and he said with his usual smirk, "Hehehe, I mean, I'm truly flattered that Ninth Prince came to pick me up in person; um, where are Ninth Princess, my brother Hei, and my brother Fengming? Why didn't they come out?"
“They are all at a crucial stage of their cultivation and don’t have time to see you right now,” Shang Xiye said with a smile, raising his hand to pat Wang An’s shoulder heavily. “Come on, let’s go inside and talk.”
Wang An stumbled from the pat, but Shang Xiye's shoulder-patting gesture, which was identical to that of Ji Fengyao and Ji Fengming, made him feel very warm and happy. He said, "Alright, I've been wandering alone for over two hundred years, and today I've finally found the group again, hehe!"
