Chapter 59: Finally, the Battle Begins

by him and stored in his heart of slaughter!"Indeed powerful!" Shen Xiang said as he took out a small jade bead, the hot green light from it left all present stunned.It actually was a green fire soul...Chapter 59 - Finally Going To War

Anger welled up in Yao Hong's heart as he roared, "Shen Xiang, what kind of witchcraft did you use to control our Yao Family elders!""Shen Xiang, you've killed our genius and now tarnished our family's reputation. Our Yao Family will definitely eradicate the Shen family." Shen Xiang chuckled coldly and said, "Yao Tianhua is a genius Why did he lose to me Also, I take full responsibility for my actions. Why include the Shen family in this when you're the one who caused trouble It seems like your Yao Family is really worried about our influence on your medicinal business." By now, many people in the square were criticizing the Yao Family. The destruction of the Dan Wang Pavilion was well-known, and hearing Shen Xiang's words only confirmed their suspicions that the Yao Family had acted very cunningly. "Shen Xiang, come out and fight fair! If you're a martial artist, let's have an open competition!" Shen Fu Rong now had newfound respect for Shen Xiang's strength. An elder from the Yao Family was rendered helpless in his hands. Shen Xiang's voice turned icy, "Shen Fu Rong, you're no longer part of the Shen family. You were banished from our clan; you are a traitor, and according to our family's rules, all traitors must die." Saying this, Shen Xiang struck the head of that Yao Family elder with his palm. The head burst like a watermelon, splitting into pieces and spraying blood everywhere. This stunned everyone, as Shen Xiang's actions announced their declaration of war against the Yao Family! "Humph, I've already slain two people from your family; what's the point of killing one more" Shen Xiang said calmly. The Yao Family's strength was formidable, and Shen Xiang was still standing at their front door. His actions were suicidal.Truly enough, Yao Hong roared, "Surround him; I must have his flesh torn apart." "Shen Xiang, you asked for it!" Although Shen Fu Rong knew he had committed a crime by being a traitor, he was not afraid. He believed that in the secular world, very few Shen Family members could challenge him.Shen Xiang was surrounded by several elders, all of them being Yao Family members. Two of them were at the peak of Eighth Level Combatant, and even Yao Hong was at that level. However, Shen Xiang stood calmly despite this.The people in the square quickly retreated, leaving only about three hundred still stationary. Yao Hong noticed that these three hundred people had calm gazes, and several of them emitted subtle auras. They were not ordinary people by any means."Shen Tianhu!" Shen Fu Rong recognized him immediately and roared. He saw the other three people at Eighth Level Combatant, and his heart skipped a beat; he didn't notice them before returning to the Shen Family."Traitor! Your death is coming today." Shen Tianhu took out a tiger-head broadsword and walked towards Shen Xiang's location.The Shen Family had actually arrived at the Yao Family's entrance beforehand; nobody expected this, and only three hundred people came!Despite this, the Yao Family's experts felt immense pressure because they were six people at Eighth Level Combatant facing only four of them."Mr. Shen, this…" Yao Hong glanced at Shen Fu Rong. Shen Fu Rong was at Ninth Level Combatant, and because of him supporting the Yao Family, they dared to challenge the Shen Family."Let me handle it." Shen Fu Rong said coldly, then floated towards Shen Tianhu and rushed quickly. Just as he did, Shen Xiang suddenly vanished from his original spot. He jumped furiously and flew to the sky, appearing before Shen Fu Rong and roaring loudly. A large mass of green lightning accompanied a suppressed dragon's roar, engulfing Shen Fu Rong! "Slaughter all the members of the Shen Family, leaving none alive!" Yao Hong roared while Shen Tianhu already held his tiger-head steel sword, leading fifty other members of the Shen Family. They rushed towards Yao Hong, each carrying a murderous aura and explosive auras.Seeing the headman leading the charge, other Shen Family members couldn't be left behind and roared wildly too. They took out their swords, walked steadily, and charged towards the thousands of people at the Yao Family's entrance. The roar of three hundred Shen Family members echoed throughout the kingdom, and their heavy steps caused tremors in the square. Each person was determined to die, as they were chosen for their family and its protection at all costs. Three hundred against a thousand, with thousands more inside the Yao Family compound, this made onlookers excited and cheered loudly. The battle between Shen Xiang and Shen Fu Rong, as well as the three hundred members of their respective families against thousands of Yao Family members simultaneously happened. All kinds of noises intermingled, creating chaos, and in that moment, the stone bricks in the square almost collapsed. As for Shen Tianhu and his group, Shen Xiang trusted them completely since they were all at Eighth Level Combatant; he only needed to keep Shen Lu Zong occupied. After taking a hit from Shen Xiang's "Green Dragon Roar," Shen Fu Rong's expression became serious. He confirmed that Shen Xiang was indeed at Eighth Level Combatant, and despite being only sixteen years old, he had grown up in the secular world lacking resources. Even more astonishing was that Shen Xiang was a medicinal alchemist! "Shen Xiang, you're truly talented. But this is your family's affair and irrelevant to me! I care only about my benefits in the sect. If I could help the Yao Family, I would benefit greatly inside True Martial Gate, so today I must kill you! I've lost my loyalty and hate the Shen Family!" Shen Fu Rong said with a frightening laugh. Shen Xiang remained silent as he was fusing the five-element qi inside him. Facing a martial artist from a Daoist sect, he could only defeat him using the Duan Kun Qi. Everyone knew that there were people from Daoist sects coming to select disciples for the kingdom's martial arts tournament, and that person was at Ninth Level Combatant. These kinds of experts were very rare in the vast Southern Martial Kingdom, and their strength was terrifying. A young Shen Xiang had to face such a powerful expert, making many look forward to it. Although his strength was deeply unpredictable and he had just killed a member of the Daoist sect at Eighth Level Combatant! The transformation from just a competition to a battle between families was unexpected, but in others' eyes, it was still a competition—a large-scale one without many rules. "Humph, I never expected the Shen Family members to be idiots and let you kid take care of me! If those six guys were here, maybe you could escape, but now not only are you going to die, so are they. The Shen Family is over!" Red qi suddenly erupted from Yao Hong's body,繚繞 around his arms and legs. His eyes slowly turned red as well.Seeing this, Shen Xiang stepped back. He was in his first encounter with someone at Ninth Level Combatant and faced such a powerful enemy for the first time. Feeling that qi, Shen Xiang's expression became more serious than ever.ed and greeted him.The Celestial God sighed helplessly, "They don’t help. Punishment Heavenly God is also caught in chaos himself and was tied up by a group of people, unable to help me. God Temples l...
