Nan Wentian pondered for a moment, a cold smile curling at the corners of his mouth.
"Hmph, the Chen Family has obtained such a Lingbao; truly, heaven is aiding me! If I can seize this item, the strength of my Nan Family will surely rise to new heights!"
He immediately arranged to meet with Wu Hongyu, the head of the Wu Family, at a secret location. Nan Wentian did not wish to monopolize the treasure; the city was simply too small. Once conflict erupted, Wu Hongyu would quickly realize what had transpired. It was better for the two of them to join forces; even if something unexpected occurred later, they could bear the consequences together. After all, few would dare to provoke them.
Wu Hongyu was slender and had a gloomy demeanor, his eyes glinting with cunning and malice. Upon hearing Nan Wentian mention the Chen Family, a sinister smile crept across his face as he spoke.
"Hmph, the Chen Family has been like a centipede these years—still alive but barely kicking, desperately trying to restore their former glory. If we allow them to recover, they might soon become a threat looming over both our families."
Nan Wentian and Wu Hongyu exchanged glances, their thoughts aligned as greed and ruthlessness sparkled in their eyes. They understood that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity; if they could join forces to seize the Chen Family's treasure, their combined strength would soar, completely trampling the Chen Family beneath their feet!
Nan Wentian slammed his hand on the table and declared loudly, "Alright, let’s act together! The early bird catches the worm; those who hesitate suffer loss. Our two families must seize the Chen Family's treasure!"
Wu Hongyu echoed in agreement, "Exactly! We cannot allow the Chen Family to enjoy this benefit alone!"
The two men exchanged smiles, a murderous intent slowly reverberating between them.
Meanwhile, on another front, Chen Feng had just finished receiving Nan Yun and sensed that his former friend harbored ulterior motives. He hurriedly made his way to Chen Moxuan's courtyard.
He reported everything about Nan Yun's visit and actions in detail. After listening, Chen Moxuan merely smiled faintly and kept this matter in mind. He slowly stood up and walked to the window, gazing out at the lush trees beyond with a deep and tranquil expression.
"Chen Feng," he mused silently, "I praised you yesterday but today you have disappointed me greatly!"
Upon hearing this, Chen Feng quickly knelt on the ground. "It is my fault; please punish me, Ancestor."
"Do you even know what your mistake is? Just accept your punishment," Chen Moxuan replied coldly with a glance.
Chen Feng was at a loss for words, stammering without being able to pinpoint his error.
Chen Moxuan continued calmly, "In these past two weeks, your strength has surged remarkably. However, you should focus on yourself rather than concern yourself with those insignificant clowns."
"The Nan Family is merely a small player at the border; they are not worth mentioning." His voice was calm and detached as if everything lay within his control.
Turning back to face Chen Feng, he fixed him with a stern gaze. "Now let me see how strong you have become."
Chen Feng felt invigorated upon hearing this; he realized that Ancestor had high expectations of him.
He slowly raised his hands, as if communicating with the Ling Qi between heaven and earth. With each breath he took, the surrounding Ling Qi seemed to be drawn toward him, swirling around his body like a current of energy.
"Attack!" Chen Moxuan's voice was steady and filled with authority.
Chen Feng was momentarily taken aback, a flicker of hesitation crossing his mind. However, as he recalled the unparalleled power of his Ancestor's divine abilities, that hesitation vanished without a trace. He took a deep breath, feeling his muscles swell with boundless strength in an instant.
Then, he stepped forward fiercely, his right fist soaring like a dragon leaping and a tiger pouncing, accompanied by the sound of whistling wind as he struck at Chen Moxuan.
A glimmer of satisfaction flashed in Chen Moxuan's eyes. He could see that although Chen Feng had just entered the Innate stage, he had already begun to grasp the fundamentals of Tai Xu Yu Qi Jue and had started to harness spiritual power, making him at least ten times stronger than before. Even more impressive was the significant enhancement of his physical strength, clearly indicating that he had put in tremendous effort during his training.
"Good, very good progress," Chen Moxuan nodded in approval. He gently extended his index finger and effortlessly blocked the punch.
Chen Feng looked behind Chen Moxuan and noticed that even the large tree behind him had been shattered by his spiritual power, yet the Ancestor remained completely unperturbed.
"The small Nan Family is now in your hands; don’t embarrass me!" With that, Chen Moxuan turned and walked back into the house.
Time quickly passed into the night. The moon was obscured by dark clouds, casting a heavy shadow over the land as if it were shrouded in thick ink; even the stars hid their light. Members of both the Nan Family and Wu Family emerged from their homes like ghosts gliding through the night. Their footsteps were light yet carried an undeniable sense of pressure.
Their figures elongated under the moonlight, resembling a pack of beasts poised to strike. The townsfolk tightly shut their doors and peered through cracks in their windows. They watched as groups of figures moved silently through the streets; the oppressive atmosphere made their hearts race, making even breathing feel difficult.
They knew that this night would be extraordinary—a storm was about to sweep over the entire Chen Family.
Meanwhile, in the courtyard, Chen Moxuan was deep in slumber when suddenly he was jolted awake by Tiger Brother's low growl, shattering the tranquility of the night.
"Why aren’t you sleeping at this hour?" Chen Moxuan turned over helplessly and asked.
"Someone is coming," Tiger Brother replied, his eyes glowing red with a bloodthirsty gleam.
Sighing, Chen Moxuan knew without guessing who it was. "Let them come."
"I want to eat!" Tiger Brother said as he crawled closer to him.
Chen Moxuan pressed down on the tiger's head.
"Tch, do I not understand you? If you go out, you’ll definitely only eat good people, not bad ones. Unless there are bad people entering this courtyard for you to feast on, just wait and see if I don’t make your belly burst again."
Tiger Brother recalled the moment when this brat had once crawled out from his belly, and he shivered involuntarily. "If you don’t want to eat, then don’t! Hmph!"
The roar of the tiger echoed like thunder through the night sky, instantly waking Chen Feng, who was on guard outside. He opened his eyes wide and leaped up from the ground, scanning his surroundings warily. The familiar roar startled him, and soon he overheard the conversation between Ancestor and the divine tiger.
Chen Feng knew that this divine tiger could speak, so he felt no surprise. However, realizing that a formidable enemy was about to attack, he immediately turned around and sprinted toward the Chen Family’s living quarters, shouting loudly as he ran.
"Wake up! Wake up! There’s a strong enemy coming!"
His voice reverberated through the night sky, accompanied by hurried footsteps that shattered the tranquility of the Chen Family. The members of the Chen Family were jolted awake from their dreams, confusion flashing across their faces. But at Chen Feng's urgent calls, they quickly regained their senses, grabbing their weapons and preparing for battle.
Boom!
The door shattered into splinters under the terrifying force of spiritual energy, flying through the air. Assassins clad in dark clothing surged into the Chen Family like a storm. Their weapons glimmered with cold light, and sinister smiles adorned their faces.
Seeing this scene, the Chen Family members felt a wave of relief wash over them. If they had been caught off guard by a surprise attack, it would have spelled disaster. However, after that moment of relief came a surge of anger towards their enemies. The fury intensified even more when they realized that it was members of the Nan Family and Wu Family who had broken through the door!
