"Hehe..." Bei Wuchang chuckled and said, "Am I not reputed for having sharp ears? However, your invention of this bomb is indeed remarkable! But we must use it judiciously. We can’t let it cause too much loss of life or it could attract the attention of the Ruler, and that would be troubleso."
"We can’t give it out to others recklessly in the future." Hei Wuchang also said.
"I understand," Dugu Qianye replied.
anwhile, an intense atmosphere shrouded both the Mo Family and the Feng Family headquarters. Although it was unspoken, both parties understood that it was ti for a decisive battle.
"Family Head, when our people arrived at the Mo Family, they discovered that none of the Mo Family mbers were there..."
"Family Head, it seems like the Mo Family sohow knew about our plan in advance!"
"Family Head, the branches of our family have been attacked!"
"Family Head, our houses have been blown up by the Mo Family!"
"Family Head, please send reinforcents!"
One after another, such ssages reached the Feng Family headquarters, infuriating the likes of Feng Xiangtian. He clenched his armrest so hard that it broke and roared, "How could the Mo Family have known about our plan?!"
"Could it be that there’s a traitor within the family?" The butler was also fuming with anger.
"Everyone in the family has sworn allegiance to the Feng Family; it’s unlikely that the information was leaked!" soone retorted.
"Could it be soone from the Divine Temple..." another ventured to guess.
Before they could co up with an answer, more news arrived.
"Family Head, we’ve encountered an ambush on our way back!"
"Family Head, we are surrounded here!"
"Family Head..."
The more Feng Xiangtian heard, the angrier he beca, shouting, "Why aren’t you sending reinforcents yet? If there aren’t enough people, ask the Divine Temple for help!"
"Yes, Family Head."
At the Mo Family, on the other hand, the mood was enveloped by joy. Victorious reports arrived one after the other, and everyone in the Council Hall was all smiles!
"This is wonderful!"
"Qianye’s item is really useful!"
"Hahaha! Let’s see how the Feng Family can still jump around after this!"
"The Divine Temple has also suffered substantial losses this ti!"
"Family Head, now that we’ve dealt with the branches of the Feng Family, shouldn’t we discuss how to deal with the Feng Family headquarters? They’ve suffered such a loss this ti; they will definitely fight back desperately."
"Indeed, Family Head, we must take preventative asures. We need to figure out how to counter their retaliation."
Mo Jingchuan was also delighted. Eliminating the Feng Family was a significant accomplishnt that would free them from always having to oppose each other. Hearing the elders’ words, he said, "Alright, let’s discuss the next steps..."
That day, many cities across the Yuling Continent plunged into battle. The Feng Family’s branches were bombed into ruins, and many people ca to witness the blazing sights of the Feng Family’s territories, clapping their hands in approval. Even so of those who escaped were killed by unknown parties. Many who had been oppressed and bullied by the Feng Family voluntarily joined the ranks to eradicate the Feng Family, relieving so of the pressure off the Mo Family.
When the forces of the Feng Family and the Divine Temple set out to ambush the Mo Family but fell into a trap themselves, they tried to return and reinforce their kin, only to be ambushed by the Mo Family along the way. Because of this battle, the Mo Family’s great assembly temporarily ceased, and after leaving a portion of their forces to protect their headquarters, the rest were sent to various cities through the Transmission Array to support battles elsewhere.
In one day’s ti, all the Feng Family branches were destroyed, with very few survivors, many of whom were killed by those who had volunteered to join the cause. Those who were fortunate enough to escape rushed back to their headquarters.
Less than one-tenth of those dispatched by the Feng Family and the Divine Temple returned; the rest were all intercepted! For a ti, the air was filled with the pungent sll of the Feng Family’s smoldering ruins.
Because of this battle, Wu Bo had specially returned from the West Continent to the East Continent and then directly visited the Feng Family headquarters.
"What is this all about?!" Wu Bo started confronting Feng Xiangtian as soon as he saw him, "How could a well-planned operation turn out like this?! Nearly all the people sent by the Divine Temple have been wiped out, and you owe an explanation!"
"I have no idea what happened; only we knew about the plan, so how could the Mo Family have set up a preemptive counterasure?" Feng Xiangtian was racked with anxiety.
"Could it be that there’s a traitor in your family?" Wu Bo asked.
"Every mber of the Feng Family has sworn never to betray the family; how could there be a traitor?!" Feng Xiangtian exclaid, then suddenly looking at Wu Bo, he suggested, "Could it be that soone in the Divine Temple leaked the information?"
"All those in the Divine Temple have been through rigorous vetting; there’s no way anyone would betray the Divine Temple!" Wu Bo, seeing that Feng Xiangtian was actually suspecting soone from the Divine Temple, beca even more enraged!
"Then what happened?" Feng Xiangtian’s face turned as dark as the bottom of a pot as he clenched and shattered the teacup in his hand, saying, "Whoever it is, I will make the Mo Family pay the price!"
"Now that your branches are all destroyed and so many have died, leaving just the main house, what strength do you have left to oppose the Mo Family?" Wu Bo asked Feng Xiangtian.
"As long as I break through to Divine Venerable, what’s impossible? When that happens, I’ll take over the Mo Family’s assets, then couldn’t I rebuild the Feng Family?" Feng Xiangtian said.
"You’ve been stuck at the God Emperor Peak for such a long ti, and I haven’t seen you break through. By the ti you do reach Divine Venerable, who knows when that will be? The Mo Family will have swallowed up the Feng Family long before that," Wu Bo said.
"Not necessarily!" Feng Xiangtian confidently said.
"Don’t tell you’ve found a Breaking God Pill?" Wu Bo inquired.
Feng Xiangtian nodded, taking out the Elixir that had been concocted by Dugu Qianye and said, "I asked Baili Xie to refine it for . As long as I consu this, my advancent to Divine Venerable is imminent!"
"Right! How could I forget about Baili Xie? I should have had her refine it for you earlier."
Feng Xiangtian, clutching the Jade Bottle and envisioning the faces of Mo Jingchuan and the others, said, "I will enter seclusion to break through to Divine Venerable shortly. Once I erge, I will make sure they pay for their blood debts with blood!"
"Then you concentrate on your cultivation. Sigh, find a secluded place for the breakthrough, so no one finds out. I will take my leave now; I must report this matter properly to the Divine Master. The Divine Temple has lost so many people this ti; she will definitely be angry," Wu Bo said before he stood up to leave.
After Wu Bo left, Feng Xiangtian summoned the butler and the elders to delegate so duties before he found a spot to go into closed-door cultivation. His original plan was to eliminate the Mo Family before doing this, but now, he had to enhance his strength as the Mo Family would soon target the main house.
Dugu Qianye returned to the Mo Family after the battle ended. When the Mo Family people saw Dugu Qianye, they all greeted her with smiles. The elders’ faces brightened up like blooming chrysanthemums at the sight of her.
Dugu Qianye inquired about the Mo Family’s subsequent plans. Upon hearing Mo Jingchuan’s intention to move against the Feng Family headquarters without delay, she asked, "Are you absolutely confident in defeating Feng Xiangtian?"
