"Do you have any life-saving tools left?" Yun Lun asked slowly, knowing that the answer was likely no, but his parents were actually coming this way.
For a moment, Yun Lun felt a sense of panic; once a person has attachments, they become vulnerable.
Yun Lun's parents were his biggest vulnerability.
"No, we can only fight for our lives. If you don't want to participate, you can leave," Nangong Tianyu said.
His tone was filled with determination. The path in this world was inherently full of uncertainties; there was no way to simply lie down and give up.
Moreover, they had no manpower; if the opponent attacked, it was highly likely they would be giving up without a fight.
However, the opponent seemed somewhat hesitant, and he could use this to his advantage to incite internal conflict among them first.
At this moment, Yun Lun said to Nangong Yutian, "Many of their people might not be aware of the situation. Why don't we clarify the stakes for them first? This way, we might have fewer opponents."
Nangong Yutian nodded and stepped out of the thatched hut. The character for "fire" from Divine Script illuminated the heavens and transformed everything around into a sea of red flames. The flames directly morphed into Wings of the Vermilion Bird.
"I don't know who you are, and I don't want to know who you are, but you must understand that I am Nangong Tianyu of the Nangong Family. If you make a move against me, you know the consequences," he declared.
Nangong Yutian showcased all his features to demonstrate his family's power.
"Wait a minute, when we came here, the clan leader didn't tell us we were dealing with the Princess of the Nangong Family. Isn't that asking for death?" one of the family guards questioned.
Elder Zhao then spoke up, "Clan Leader, I need you to explain this to us. We recommended you as clan leader not to lead our family into an abyss."
The Zhao Family Head was taken aback; how could they be so direct right from the start? How could he persuade these people to attack their opponents now?
In an instant, there was a flurry of discussions within the Zhao Family's ranks, and their gazes toward the clan leader were filled with doubt.
"I heard that those noble families have tracking techniques. If you kill someone from that family, you'll be located by them and won't be able to escape."
"So you're saying the clan leader is looking for a scapegoat? Damn it, I've worked so hard, and now I have to be set up."
...
"Enough!" Zhao Family Head shouted. "If they say it's the Nangong Family, then it is the Nangong Family. Just kill them directly; no one will be able to testify against us. Now that we've cornered them, if they're really the ones, it will still be a hassle."
Zhao Clan Leader tried to change the narrative and urged others to take action, but the others were not fools.
Zhao Clan Leader attempted to intimidate everyone with his authority, but he had already lost the support of the people.
The Second Elder began to speak sarcastically, "The clan leader is still so imposing. You're just at the Nine Stars of the Profound Spirit Realm; can't you handle a few kids?"
"Isn't it your foolish son who caused this trouble? You want us to take the blame?" The Second Elder pointed out the truth directly.
"Everyone disperse. Go home, wash up, and get some sleep. It's late, and we end up dealing with such nonsense." The Elder declared.
"As long as you leave now, our Nangong Family can let bygones be bygones." The little princess of the noble family was different; although Nangong Tianyu was only ten years old, she had seen a lot and quickly assessed the situation, providing an exit for them.
Suddenly, all the members of the Zhao Family scattered, leaving Zhao Clan Leader standing alone, unsure whether to stay or go.
"Let's go back and choose a new clan leader."
"Alright, alright."
However, among the higher-ups, there were other thoughts: to take their families and distance themselves from this place of trouble while leaving behind some unimportant people for the Nangong Family to vent their anger on.
In this world, everyone was an old fox; staying would only lead to death. The best course of action was to pack up and run away.
They never expected that the once stable Zhao Family would be gone overnight.
The Zhao Clan Leader felt a mix of emotions; they could distance themselves from the situation, but he could not. His son was truly a burden.
At that moment, the voice of the man in the black robe reached his ears, "You can handle this alone. I will ensure your wife and children live comfortably for the rest of their lives."
"Don't even think about running. If you dare to flee, your entire family will reunite in hell."
The man in the black robe knew that someone had to take the blame and die for this incident. It was better to offer the other party some tangible hope, as no matter what, they would definitely be dead after tonight.
Yun Lun shouted urgently, "He's about to attack, retreat!"
Yun Lun and Nangong Tianyu quickly fell back, but a powerful wave of energy surged forward, sending both Yun Lun and Nangong Yutian flying.
Yun Lun felt severely injured; his strength was still too weak.
At that moment, Yun Hao rushed out of the house and stood beside Yun Lun.
"Ahao, help her. Use the 'Strength' Divine Script for the divine ability."
"Okay."
The 'Strength' Divine Script and 'Fire' Divine Script were used against Open Meridian Realm Nine Stars to battle Nine Stars of the Profound Spirit Realm.
The Divine Script inherently possessed divine abilities; while the use of Spiritual Techniques was insufficient to bridge the gap between both sides, divine abilities could.
Suddenly, Nangong Yutian's Wings of the Vermilion Bird extended, invoking the divine ability: Vermilion Bird Sacred Soul. The phantom of the Vermilion Bird appeared directly behind Nangong Yutian. This was a divine ability of the Vermilion Bird Divine Body.
The 'Fire' Divine Script enveloped Nangong Tianyu in flames, invoking the divine ability: Fire Realm. The temperature around them continued to rise, and a sword made of fire appeared in Nangong Tianyu's hand.
Yun Hao also let out a roar, his body continuously expanding, using the ability: Giant Body. In an instant, Yun Hao's height reached five meters.
Zhao Clan Leader took the initiative, using the Advanced Spirit Technique of the Profound Level: Aurora Shadow Blade.
Countless blade shadows slashed towards Yun Hao and Nangong Tianyu.
Yun Hao didn't care about anything else and directly threw a punch. Nangong Tianyu followed up with a massive flame sword that tore through the void.
The three streams of energy collided together, and Zhao Clan Leader had no major issues, taking a few steps back.
However, Yun Hao and Nangong Tianyu felt a heaviness in their chests and spat out blood.
The gap in cultivation levels was still too great.
"Do you need power?" A voice faintly arose in Yun Lun's heart.
