Chapter 991: Chapter 980: Get the Hell Outta Here

At this mont, the Song Family gathered for ancestor worship also heard the alarm.

However, their reaction was notably calm.

Mr. Song calmly said, "Soone’s here again."

"Indeed!"

Song ifeng, standing behind Mr. Song, remarked with emotion, "I rember soone ca around this ti last ti too."

"It’s the sa old trick." Mr. Song casually shook his head and said, "I’ve lived this long, and I’ve lost count of the many assassination attempts I’ve faced."

Song Yun looked at the calm crowd and found it a bit incomprehensible. The enemy was at their doorstep, yet they remained so composed?

"Song Yun, as a main branch mber of our Song Family, you must have a heart that remains unperturbed in the face of crises." Mr. Song said to Song Yun, "Once you beco the master of the Song Family in the future, you’ll understand that there are many people in this world who want you dead, and they’ll use all kinds of thods. However, this ti seems more significant than the last. I rember it was just one person who ca to assassinate

last ti, a master skilled in the art of assassination, who managed to get close to my side, but in the end, Old Wang sent him to et the Buddha with one blow. Ah, what a sin."

Bam bam bam.

At that mont, gunfire erupted from afar.

"They even brought guns this ti?" A hint of surprise crossed Mr. Song’s face, and then he said, "From the sound, it’s an M4A1. Quite a number of them this ti."

"Second Grandpa, should we find a place to hide for now?" Song Yun asked.

"No need." Mr. Song shook his head and said, "Continue with the worship; the ancestor ritual cannot be halted!"

Song Yun nodded and spread his heightened sixth sense, observing every word and action of those present.

Song i Qin frowned and took a small step to a corner on the side, where sothing could block her body, just in case stray bullets hit her if soone rushed in later.

The Russian attackers far exceeded the Song Family’s expectations. After the alarm went off, they had advanced less than twenty ters before encountering the Song Family’s security forces. This ti, the security force was quite large, about ten people, all ard with firearms.

In an instant, both sides engaged in a firefight.

However, the Russians clearly had superior weaponry, and they were wearing body armor, so once the engagent began, several Song Family mbers were downed, while a few Russians were hit, but because the Song Family mainly used less lethal weapons, they were stopped by the body armor.

These ten people managed to delay the Russians for less than a minute before being successfully broken through, leaving the twenty Russians without any losses.

Partly, it was due to their elite equipnt, and partly due to their exceptional skills; many could even dodge bullets.

Leaving a trail of bodies behind, the twenty Russians pierced directly through the first line of Song Family’s defenses like a sharp knife.

anwhile, on Mr. Song’s side.

"You all go inside." Mr. Song lightly instructed, "The next step will begin shortly, and I need to stay here a while longer."

"Brother, let’s go together, pausing the ceremony for a mont doesn’t matter," Song i Qin said.

"How could my Song Family’s ancestor ritual be stopped so easily? You all go inside and prepare!" Mr. Song said.

According to the family’s ritual, once everyone had honored the ancestors, they would move deeper inside to complete another ceremony. However, the rule stipulated that the main branch mber of the Song Family must be the last to enter.

Following Mr. Song’s instructions, several leaders of the Song branch family, along with so accompanying family mbers, moved inside, leaving only Song Yun and Ye Qingsi.

"You go inside too," Song Yun said with a smile. "If those attackers really get in here, it’ll be bad!"

"No, I want to stay with you," Li Shishi said.

"They might not make it here, and by the rules, you can’t stay here now. Listen to Song Yun, and go inside," Ye Qingsi said with a smile.

Since Ye Qingsi had spoken, Li Shishi had nothing more to say. After reminding Song Yun to stay safe, Li Shishi followed Qingluan, leading the branch family inside.

Only four people were left at the scene.

The Ergou couple, Song Yun, and Mr. Song.

These were the true main branch mbers of the Song Family, and currently the most respected individuals in the family.

"Ergou, go have a look outside." Mr. Song lightly instructed.

Song Ergou nodded and headed out.

The gunfire from afar grew closer, but Mr. Song showed neither joy nor sorrow. No negative emotions could be seen as he focused on the statue before him, muttering to himself.

Song Yun was much more tense than Mr. Song, frequently glancing towards the door, contemplating how to protect his mother and second grandpa if soone burst in.

The attack formation of the twenty Russians was extrely sharp, and their firepower very strong. Even Song Ergou could only watch them from a distance on the rooftop. The M4A1s, as automatic rifles, wielded by twenty n simultaneously, would force even the Azure Dragon to avoid their edge. Song Ergou prided himself on not having a body of steel, so even with his skills, without any weapons, it would be difficult to approach those twenty people!

Just as Song Ergou was pondering how to contain these twenty n and wait for the main reinforcents to arrive.

A strong presence appeared suddenly beside Song Ergou.

This presence appeared so unexpectedly and without any signs, as if it had always been there.

Song Ergou furrowed his brow, raising his hand to protect his head.

Bam.

A punch with imnse force struck Song Ergou’s upheld hand.

Song Ergou flew sideways, but even while airborne, he managed to adjust his posture.

Then, the presence reappeared suddenly.

As if through teleportation.

Another punch aid at Song Ergou’s chest. Song Ergou clasped his hands together and shouted fiercely, "Get lost, you freak!"

Bam.

Song Ergou caught the punch, but blood spurted from his mouth.

"Damn, Abe Jinming, are you starting a war with our Song Family, you dead freak!" After retreating several steps, Song Ergou said.

A man wearing the long robe of a Japanese Onmyoji appeared before Song Ergou. The breeze blew gently, lifting the robe in a way that gave him an ethereal, otherworldly presence.
