Chapter 962: Patriarch Ximen, you are such a forgetful person!
Su Chenyin chuckled, and the silver needle turned a beautiful arc between his fingers: "It's just right to use them to try out the new poison I developed."
As the night deepened, everyone sat around the campfire, tearing into the dried animal meat, and the discussion became more intense.
Su Yi was still half-kneeling beside Ji Lier, his profile reflected by the bonfire looking as cold as a knife.
From time to time, he would stuff the golden roasted sweet potatoes into her hands and hand her a water bag.
When the last piece of spiritual flesh was eaten up, Su Chenyin suddenly raised his hand, and a purple-gold flame condensed at his fingertips.
She flicked the trigger lightly, and the flame flew accurately towards the bonfire. In an instant, the raging flames turned into smoke and dissipated into the night sky.
"Let's go." Her voice was as cold as ice.
The moment the hem of Yinling's skirt was lifted, everyone disappeared into the night like an arrow shot from a bow.
Ji Li'er held the spiritual porcelain cup that Su Yi stuffed into her hand, feeling the residual warmth on her fingertips, and finally released all the tears that she had been suppressing.
This time, she is no longer a lamb to be slaughtered. She will make those people pay with blood!
…………
At this time, the Ximen family's house was brightly lit, but there was a strange and tense atmosphere in the house.
Ximen Lie sat in the main hall, stroking the ice jade box on the table. The beating heart-shaped crystal in the box was emitting a strange red light.
This is the "Heart Replacement Gu" that he bought from Elder Mo at a high price. As long as Su Yi's Pure Yang Heart is transplanted to Yin Shuang and this Gu is used as a medium, Yin Shuang's illness can be completely cured.
There was a smug smile on his face and a greedy gleam in his eyes.
He fantasized that Su Chenyin and the others would be killed by the assassins he sent out, while Su Yi would be captured alive and become the key to all these plans.
By then, Ximen Yinshuang's illness will be cured, and she will become the most powerful being on Yueya Continent, and may even dominate the entire continent.
"Hahaha, when Shuang'er recovers from her illness, this Yueya Continent will belong to our Ximen family sooner or later!"
Ximen Lie threw his head back and laughed, his laughter full of arrogance and ambition.
Just as he was immersed in his sweet dream, suddenly, a crisp cracking sound broke the silence.
Ximen Lie opened his eyes suddenly.
He was shocked to find that the fifty "An Lie" soul tablets placed in front of him were all shattered at the same time.
The "click" sound of shattering was particularly harsh in the silent hall.
Ximen Lie stood up suddenly, his face turned pale in an instant, and he looked at the shocking scene in disbelief.
"This...how is this possible?"
His throat was so dry that he could hardly make a sound. He could only mutter to himself, "In an instant, the soul tablets of these dead soldiers all died at the same time!"
"What exactly is going on?"
His voice trembled with extreme shock, and a layer of cold sweat broke out on his forehead without him noticing.
"Boom boom boom——"
Before he could recover from his shock, there was a loud noise of the family protection formation being shattered, and the entire Ximen family was shocked.
Ximen Lie's heart suddenly tightened, and an ominous premonition came to his mind.
The violent vibration caused the candles in the hall to flicker wildly, and the calligraphy and paintings hanging on the walls fell down one after another.
Ximen Lie raised his head in astonishment and looked towards the door of the hall.
I saw the great elder of the Ximen family running in hurriedly.
The Great Elder’s face was as pale as death, and he was so panic-stricken that even his clothes were messed up.
He shouted at Ximen Lie breathlessly: "Chief, Chief, it's bad! The clan's protective formation has been broken! A powerful enemy has invaded!"
"Clan leader!" The chief guard also stumbled in, the jade pendant on his waist hitting the door frame and breaking into two pieces, "An expert has broken into our Ximen family!"
"We couldn't even see a single person, and most of our disciples were killed or injured. Even our protective formation was broken by them in an instant!"
The captain of the guards had a look of horror on his face, veins popping out on his forehead, and sweat dripping down his cheeks.
When Ximen Lie heard the news, his face turned pale instantly, and his eyes were filled with fear and anger.
He shook his head in disbelief, muttering to himself, "What! How is it possible!"
Without even bothering to tidy up his appearance, Ximen Lie rushed out the door.
As soon as he went out, he heard the mournful cries from the clan leader's disciples, elders and guards, the voices were full of despair and fear.
Ximen Lie's heart tightened and he quickly looked up.
The originally extremely solid clan protection formation was now broken into pieces, turning into countless specks of light and eventually disappearing without a trace.
"Enemy attack! Activate level two..." Ximen Lie's roar was drowned out by an earth-shaking explosion before he could even finish his words.
The explosion was deafening, as if the whole world was collapsing at this moment.
Then, the entire east wall collapsed under the huge impact force, raising a cloud of dust that covered the sky.
In the smoke and dust, even more miserable screams of the disciples were heard, echoing in Ximen Lie's ears for a long time.
When Ximen Lie saw this, his face changed drastically.
He waved his sleeves hastily, shaking away all the flying debris.
However, when he looked closely, he couldn't help but gasp.
In the night sky, countless dazzling sword lights intertwined together, as if illuminating the entire sky like daylight.
However, in this dazzling sword light, there was no sign of anyone holding a sword.
Suddenly, a red sword energy rushed past like lightning.
An attic a hundred meters away was instantly cut in half, collapsed with a loud bang, and raised a cloud of dust.
Ximen Lie's heart sank suddenly, and his legs actually felt a little weak.
He opened his eyes wide, staring at the ruins in disbelief, his heart filled with fear.
The third elder covered his broken arm and staggered over: "Patriarch! It's bad! The Sutra Library, the Alchemy Room, the Weapon Refining Room... are all destroyed!"
"The opponent's strength... is at least a powerful being in the Spirit God Realm!"
"Bullshit!" Ximen Lie was furious, his voice full of panic, "Can the Spiritual God Realm do this? The person who came must be from outside the Cangming Realm. Go and ask the four ancestors to come out of seclusion!"
The Great Elder's expression also became extremely solemn.
After hearing Ximen Lie's order, he turned around quickly and left in a hurry to ask his ancestor to come out.
Ximen Lie took a deep breath and tried hard to suppress the fear in his heart.
He stared at the dazzling sword light in the air not far away, and shouted with all his strength:
"My Lords, my Ximen family has always been kind to others. I don't know when I offended you, but you are killing people in my Ximen family like this!"
Before he finished speaking, a clear and pleasant female voice suddenly rang through the sky:
"Patriarch Ximen, you are such a forgetful person! You just sent people to hunt us down half an hour ago. Why are you turning your back on us now?"
As the female voice sounded, the sword lights in the sky suddenly gathered.
In the blink of an eye, twelve figures came in the moonlight like immortals and landed lightly in the center of the ruined courtyard.
The moonlight gilded them with a silver edge, and the girl in the lead was dressed in a fiery red dress, and it was Su Chenyin.
