After breaking through the Ning Family's defenses, Ye Feng and Chen Xiaobing split up and hurried back to their respective families.
During Ye Feng's quiet journey towards East Street, he happened to encounter Ye Honglin fleeing with Ye Zhentian. He quickly intervened, killing the pursuing soldiers who tried to intercept them. Meanwhile, upon returning to the Chen Family in South Street, Chen Xiaobing discovered that his family had been reduced to ruins.
Although Chen Xiaobing was heartbroken, he did not impulsively seek revenge against the Ning Family. Instead, he followed the previously devised plan and headed to the Ye Family.
After confirming his identity, Chen Xiaobing was allowed entry by the guards of the Ye Family. Now, only the Ye Family remained in Silvermoon City; most of the survivors from the Three Prominent Families had sought refuge there.
With a choked voice, Chen Xiaobing briefly described the tragic state of the Chen Family to Ye Feng.
After comforting Chen Xiaobing, who was in deep sorrow, Ye Feng and he went directly to the South Wall of the city.
The South Wall of the Ye Family Courtyard was adjacent to East Street. If the Ning Family launched a frontal assault, this would be the only breakthrough point. Therefore, the number of Siege Crossbows and Black Barrels stationed at the South Wall was greater than at any other wall.
"Break open the oil barrels, light them up! Crossbowmen, aim for those Ning Family members trying to jump onto the city wall and shoot them down!" On top of the wall, Ye Honglin, dressed in a light blue short shirt and with a gray cloth bag that had mysteriously appeared behind him, was sternly issuing orders for defense.
With a loud bang, flames erupted from the top of the wall. Ye Feng felt a chill in his heart and rushed up alongside Chen Xiaobing.
Outside the South Wall of the Ye Family, a sea of fire raged. The massive Black Barrels contained a strange black oil that ignited fiercely and burned persistently.
The more than ten guards from the Ning Family at the forefront were drenched in black oil and were now rolling in agony amidst the flames!
The fire from the burning oil soared over ten meters high; only experts at the Origin Martial Realm could hope to leap over this fiery barrier.
"Ah!!" Soon after, several screams echoed as some Origin Martial Realm warriors, relying on their impressive martial techniques, attempted to jump onto the city wall but were shot through by crossbow bolts that were four to five meters long and as thick as an adult's thigh!
"While crossbow bolts are powerful, dodging them is not impossible. However, even for Origin Martial Realm warriors, once they leap into the air to clear the fire wall without any leverage for maneuvering, they easily become live targets for crossbow bolts!"
Ye Feng exclaimed in admiration of the Ye Family's defensive measures.
"The mysterious black oil is abundant, and the crossbows are fully equipped. If the Ning Family wants to conquer the Ye Family, they will likely pay a heavy price. Right now, we just need to guard against those exceptionally skilled Ning Family experts. If they manage to jump onto the city walls and destroy the giant crossbows, the consequences would be unimaginable!"
Just as Ye Feng thought this, six incredibly fast Ning Family members charged forward. Most of them were experts above the Yuan Martial Realm Seventh Level, and neither the crossbows nor the firewalls could hinder them. Even Ye Feng found it extremely difficult to deal with them.
However, on the Ye Family's side, five uncles and elders quickly leaped out from the crowd to confront these true elites from the Ning Family.
A fierce battle commenced. While the Ning Family focused their main assault on the southern gate, they also sent several forces to create disturbances at other sections of the city walls. However, due to the Ye Family's thorough preparations, they were unable to make significant progress for the time being.
"Damn it! Where did that old fool from the Ye Family find such a dark and eerie thing? It can create such a high firewall, and combined with the city’s crossbows, it has such remarkable effects. Now our numerical advantage in the Ning Family has completely vanished!" Ning Zhiyuan's face turned extremely grim. Had he known that the Ye Family had such deep foundations, he should have tackled this tough opponent earlier. Now that the Ye Family was prepared, it would be even more challenging to conquer them.
"It's fine. Yuan Li's injuries have basically healed. The outcome of this confrontation between our two families now depends on the battles among the experts. The old man from the Ye Family should have already passed away; the only real challenge from the Ye Family is that Ye Honglin. I will deal with Ye Honglin alongside Yuan Li; Brother Ning just needs to act as needed!" Leihua sneered disdainfully at the Ye Family's defensive capabilities.
"That might not be appropriate. You and Yuan Brother are our esteemed guests from the Ning Family; how can we assign you the most difficult task?" Ning Zhiyuan said somewhat awkwardly.
"Just focus on your own matters!" A glint of sharpness flashed in Leihua's eyes as he dropped this remark. He then greeted Yuan Li beside him and leaped high into the air, heading straight for the southern gate of the Ye Family.
"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!" Three crossbow bolts shot towards him. Leihua sneered and struck with both palms, effortlessly deflecting these bolts before soaring into the air alongside Yuan Li, directly charging up to the southern gate of the Ye Family.
With a light palm strike, he shattered a giant crossbow on top of the city wall into splinters, completely destroying it.
"Well done!" To prevent other giant crossbows from suffering damage, Ye Honglin could no longer hold back and shouted loudly as he executed Willow Step to confront Leihua.
The two were evenly matched in skill and quickly became entangled in combat, unleashing various martial techniques as they fought from one end of the wall to the other.
“Frostblade!” After exchanging blows for over a dozen rounds, one of them suddenly reached behind and pulled down a cloth bag, shaking it vigorously in hand.
Cloth scraps flew everywhere, revealing a snow-white great sword about a meter long in Ye Honglin's grasp.
Seeing the appearance of Frostblade, Leihua was taken aback. Although he had a slight edge in cultivation over Ye Honglin, his mastery of Martial Technique was far inferior to Ye Honglin's finesse.
At this moment, noticing that Yuan Li had also joined the fray, Ye Honglin decided to stop concealing his strength and drew the famed sword he had acquired years ago.
“Cold Moon Blade Technique, Frostblade Slash!” Ye Honglin shouted coldly, his body surging with Vital Energy, his aura skyrocketing instantly as an icy force radiated outward from him.
With a sudden horizontal slash of the Frostblade, a crescent-shaped wave of icy energy erupted forth, directly aimed at Leihua.
Startled, Leihua executed Cloud Step to its fullest extent, twisting in mid-air three times before barely evading the attack from Ye Honglin's Martial Technique.
Standing atop the city wall, Ye Feng was also stunned by his father's sudden display of this formidable Martial Technique.
“Is this an external release of Vital Energy? Impossible! Only a master of the Gangwu Realm could possibly project Vital Energy outward, causing unimaginable destructive power. My father's Frostblade Slash, while fierce and domineering, is still fundamentally just energy infused with a small amount of Vital Energy!”
“What a fine Frostblade. What is your relationship with Cold Moon Palace!” Leihua furrowed his brow, immediately recognizing the origin of Ye Honglin's Martial Technique.
“None of your business!” The mention of Cold Moon Palace seemed to provoke Ye Honglin, whose eyes suddenly turned bloodshot, frost forming on his brows.
“Icy Vital Energy, hmph. The Cold Moon Palace only accepts women. I wonder where you learned this Martial Technique. If word gets out, you won't escape death!” A sense of unease crept into Leihua's heart; given the strength of the Cold Moon Palace, even the entire Northern Jin Kingdom could not contend with it. His concern now lay with Ye Honglin's identity!
“You're not qualified to know!” With a cold snort, Ye Honglin positioned the Frostblade horizontally at his waist, his pupils narrowing sharply.
“Cold Moon Blade Technique, Frost Moon Slash!”
Ye Honglin suddenly dashed forward, twisting his wrist as the Frostblade formed a curved light ring that sliced directly towards Leihua's head!
“Big Brother, catch the Golden Dragon Sword!” The hurried Yuan Li threw a Golden Longsword to Leihua!
Receiving the Golden Dragon Sword, Leihua revealed a barely noticeable smile at the corner of his mouth. The sword tip trembled violently, releasing nine golden sword blossoms.
These sword blossoms were different from the ordinary ones; they did not disperse but gathered together to form a Nine Leaf Lotus!
“Golden Lotus Covers the Sky! Facing Ye Honglin's relentless assault, Leihua dared not be careless and unleashed his strongest Martial Technique.
“Golden Dragon Sword!” The longsword in Leihua's hand bore some resemblance to Ye Feng's Azure Dragon Sword, differing only in color—one was azure, the other gold, with nearly identical designs.
The two exchanged blows, but while Ye Honglin remained steady and his Frostblade shone brightly, Leihua was forced back over ten steps, and the Golden Dragon Sword in his hand appeared somewhat dimmed.
“Flame Dragon Sword Technique! Flame Dragon Slash!” Just as Ye Honglin intended to press his advantage, a wave of scorching sword energy suddenly surged from behind him, forcing him to temporarily abandon Leihua.
This strike from Yuan Li, the Flame Dragon Slash, unleashed a wave of Fire Element sword energy that countered Ye Honglin. However, their respective Martial Techniques were clearly not on the same level; with a casual swipe of his Frostblade Slash, Ye Honglin easily shattered Yuan Li's attack. The terrifying Cold Ice Energy continued unabated towards Yuan Li.
With a drastic change in expression, Yuan Li executed three consecutive Flame Dragon Slashes, finally dispersing Ye Honglin's Cold Ice Energy.
Despite facing two opponents, Ye Honglin held his ground without losing an inch, completely surprising everyone. However, it was not easy for him to easily slay these two; the back-and-forth exchanges made it difficult to determine a victor.
Meanwhile, Ye Feng was not idle either. Seeing that the wall of fire constructed from black oil was gradually weakening, he shouted loudly and leaped down from the city wall, wielding his Azure Dragon Sword, charging into the ranks of the Ning Family Army.
Some members of the Ye Family were deeply affected and jumped off the city wall alongside Ye Feng, engaging in fierce combat outside the city.
Ye Feng made his first move by beheading more than ten Martial Realm warriors, immediately catching the attention of Ning Zhiyuan. Soon, over a dozen Origin Martial Realm experts, including Ning Hong, rushed over.
Ye Feng was directly besieged by three Origin Martial Realm fifth-level experts. With his fourth-level Origin Martial Realm cultivation, he handled their attacks with ease and even gained the upper hand.
Utilizing the agility of Wind Chaser Step and the sharpness of Azure Dragon Sword, Ye Feng forced the three to retreat continuously!
The Ye Family disciples were invigorated, their morale soaring. The performance of Ye Honglin and Ye Feng in this battle greatly stimulated both families.
"Die!" Ye Feng snorted coldly, swinging his Azure Dragon Sword in a series of horizontal slashes, unleashing three streaks of azure sword energy that cleaved an elite Ning Family fifth-level Origin Martial Realm warrior in half.
The other two retreated in fear, backing away more than ten steps until two more Ning Family experts appeared behind them.
One of them was none other than Ye Zhan, wielding a spear!
"Ye Zhan, you worthless beast! How dare you lay such a vicious hand on my grandfather? If I don't kill you today, I vow I will not be human!" Seeing his enemy, Ye Feng's eyes turned red as he disregarded the other two and charged straight at Ye Zhan!
"Hmph! The Ye Family's power is waning; no matter how much you resist, it will be useless. Others may fear you, but I, Ye Zhan, do not!" Ye Zhan shouted back, thrusting his spear like a dragon straight at Ye Feng.
