Chapter 966 Sorry, I was a bit too harsh.
At this time, Ximen Yinshuang had long lost her previous pride.
She hid tightly behind Sima Lan, trembling, her eyes full of fear.
But when her gaze fell on Jun Yijue, a hint of obsession flashed in those fearful eyes.
She secretly thought in her heart: As long as I can get Jun Yijue, it will be worth it no matter what the price.
This thought kept circling in her mind, making her temporarily forget the fear and blood around her.
On the other side of the battlefield, Su Chenyin and others became more and more courageous.
They cooperated well with each other and resolved the attacks of the Dark Martyrs one by one.
"Frozen for thousands of miles!"
Su Chenyin suddenly shouted, and the red sword in his hand suddenly burst out with a dazzling cold light.
She spun around and swung her sword, and a stream of azure blue sword energy swept out in a fan shape.
Wherever this sword energy passed, a layer of ice three feet thick instantly condensed on the ground.
Nearly a hundred dark martyrs were in a charging posture, totally unprepared for this sudden change.
Their bodies were quickly wrapped by the ice and instantly frozen into ice sculptures, remaining in a charging posture, motionless.
"break!"
Su Chenyin lightly tapped the tip of his sword, and all the ice sculptures exploded at the same time, turning into ice crystals all over the sky that sparkled in the moonlight.
Those ice crystals reflected blood, as if it was snowing red, sad and strange.
Ximen Lie was so frightened that he staggered back two steps and bumped into the stone pillar behind him.
His body trembled violently, and his cloudy eyes widened, reflecting the horrifying scene.
"This... How is this possible... She is clearly just a yellow-haired girl..."
Ximen Lie's lips trembled uncontrollably, and his voice was filled with fear and astonishment.
"Father! Think of a solution quickly!" Ximen Yinshuang grabbed Ximen Lie's sleeve and screamed.
Her originally carefully styled hair was now in disarray, and her pearl hairpin hung crookedly on her ear.
Her greedy eyes were still glued to Jun Yijue. She felt both fear and desire in her heart as she watched the man in white kill dozens of dark martyrs with a casual wave of his hand.
Madam Ximen’s face was as pale as paper, and her nails dug deep into her palms.
She suddenly pulled out a blood-colored jade pendant from her bosom and crushed it: "Grandfather! If you don't come out, the Ximen family will be destroyed!"
The jade pendant fragments cut her finger, and blood dripped onto the strange patterns on the ground.
In an instant, the entire Ximen Mansion shook violently.
Then, four earth-shaking explosions were heard from the direction of the back mountain.
"Hahaha!" Ximen Lie suddenly burst into crazy laughter.
He pointed at Su Chenyin and the others, and roared with a ferocious face: "You are dead! The four ancestors of my Ximen family have come out of seclusion. Even if you have great abilities, you will never escape!"
The next moment, his laughter stopped abruptly.
Three figures were seen falling from the sky like rag dolls, smashing heavily in the center of the courtyard, stirring up a cloud of dust.
When the dust settled, everyone saw clearly that they were three white-haired old men, three of the four great ancestors of the Ximen family.
At this moment, they were vomiting blood and lying on the ground dying. They were completely devoid of the majestic aura that Ximen Lie had just described.
Ximen Lie's face turned pale in an instant, as if he had seen the end of the world.
He looked at the three old men on the ground in disbelief, and his body began to tremble involuntarily.
"Sorry, I was a bit too rough." Jun Yijue floated down from the air, holding an unconscious old man in his hand.
"These four old guys hid very deeply. It took me a lot of effort to find them."
"Especially this one, he's quite capable and he even wants to escape." Jun Yijue let out a light click of his tongue and threw the old man to the ground in disgust.
Ximen Lie was struck by lightning, his legs went limp, and he fell to his knees with a thud.
He stared at the four old men on the ground with wide eyes and finally recognized their identities.
They were none other than the four ancestors of the Ximen family who had been in seclusion for a hundred years.
Their cultivation is at the peak of the ninth level of spiritual god. They are the backbone of the Ximen family, Ximen Lie’s greatest reliance, and his biggest trump card.
But now, these four ancestors were thrown to the ground like dead dogs, without any ability to fight back.
Ximen Lie's heart was filled with despair and fear.
He knew that he was really finished this time.
"No... this is impossible..." Ximen Lie shook his head frantically, his hair crown fell off, his hair fell down, and he looked like a madman, "How could my Ximen family's ten thousand year foundation..."
The moonlight was like blood, spilling over the ruined courtyard of Ximen Mansion.
Su Chenyin suddenly jumped onto the remaining eaves, and his voice resounded throughout the battlefield: "Ximen Lie, do you know why we were able to break the formation in an instant?"
Ximen Lie looked up suddenly when he heard this, and a trace of panic flashed in his turbid eyes.
He looked in the direction of Su Chenyin's finger——
Su Chenyin just hooked her fingertips, and the Ximen Ancestral Hall exploded, revealing an underground pool of blood.
Dozens of corpses of boys and girls were floating in the pool of blood. The corpse of a little girl on the top had her empty eyes open and a tattered rag doll tightly clenched in her hand.
"How can heaven tolerate you for using living people to refine the formation?" Su Chenyin said coldly.
"No...this is impossible..."
Ximen Lie trembled all over, digging his nails deep into the cracks of the bluestone slabs, "This is our Ximen family's top secret, how could you possibly..."
Su Yi walked slowly towards them, the moonlight casting a silver edge on his handsome features.
He stopped in front of Ximen Lie, with a cold luster flowing between his black hair.
"Now, we can talk about what happened on that rainy night." His voice was eerily calm, and his slender fingers stroked the jade pendant at his waist.
Ji Lier took a deep breath and then walked in front of Ximen Lie.
There were a few bloodstains on her white dress, like red plum blossoms blooming in the snow, making her look even more elegant and beautiful.
The nightmare flashed back in my mind - the scene of my mother and Yunniang lying in a pool of blood four years ago.
In the past few months, I have been locked in a dark room day and night, and those cold knives cut my wrists...
Everything came flooding back to her mind, causing her body to tremble uncontrollably.
And this nightmare will finally come to an end tonight.
"Father," Ji Lier looked at Ximen Lie, her voice trembling, "This is the last time I'll call you this."
Her slender fingers tightly grasped her sleeves. "I just want to know, when you attacked mother four years ago and she begged you to do it, did you ever hesitate for a moment?"
Tears welled up in her eyes, but she stubbornly refused to let them fall.
Ximen Lie's face was distorted, and he suddenly laughed hysterically, with madness in his laughter.
"That bitch!" Ximen Lie's roar echoed in the air, "She knew Shuang'er needed the heart of a pure Yin body to survive, but she would rather protect you, a bastard!"
He struggled to stand up, but was suppressed by an invisible force, "She deserves to die! You all deserve to die!"
A cold light flashed in Su Chenyin's eyes, and she was about to take action, but was stopped by Ji Lier.
At this moment, Ji Lier seemed to have lost all her cowardice overnight, and only resolute coldness remained in her eyes.
She slowly raised her hand, and a crystal clear ice lotus slowly bloomed in her palm.
The temperature around them dropped suddenly, and a thin layer of frost condensed on the ground.
"The grudges of this life are over now." Ji Lier said expressionlessly.
She gently placed the ice lotus on Ximen Lie's chest, turned and walked towards Su Yi, no longer looking at the figure behind her that was instantly frozen.
