Chapter 1240 - 1240: Counterattack
"Whatever we are is none of your business, Old Mou-Suan! Today, you'll have to pay for everything you and your clan have done!"
[Zi Clan Sword Skill: First Pattern; Offense Intercept Defense]
Swish! Swish! Swish!
Elder Zi-Liang knew that if he did not hurry up to take action, Elder Mou-Suan might escape or do something bad again. So, he did not hesitate to immediately draw out his sword, his personal weapon, and use Zi Clan's sword skill that had been around for a long time.
Huh!
"Do you think that sword stance can do anything to me? You've fought me before, and the last time, you used your clan's sword stance as well, and you lost to me. This time, you'll lose again!"
[Heavenly Spirit-Shaking Demon Sword Skill]
Groooaaan!
Groooaaan!!!
Arrrrrgh!
Elder Zi-Liang's sword skill looked simple and calm, while Elder Mou-Suan's sword skill looked as fierce and bloodthirsty as a murderer. These two skills were both the Ultimate Deity Soul Skills, and with the energy levels of both being equal, the outcome should be a draw. However, that was just a guess from the eyes of ordinary people, but grandmasters like Zi-Dong-Lei, Zheng-Fu, Ma-Li-Wei, and the elders at the fourth level of the Great Deity Stage could instantly see who would win this battle.
Bang!
Booooooom!!!
Augh!
Huh!
"How is it, Oldy Zi-Liang! I told you that this time you'll lose to me anyway. ...Augh!"
Wha… what happened?!
At first, it seemed like Elder Zi-Liang could not resist and was at a disadvantage in the battle. But before Elder Mou-Suan could finish mocking his opponent, he choked out a mouthful of blood without knowing the reason, before collapsing to the ground on one knee.
"Huh! Last time I lost to you, but this time, I won't let myself get hurt alone. I have already come up with a great way to counter your sword skill. Although I have to pay for injuries, it's worth it to be able to destroy some of your internal organs. If you don't treat it quickly... the consequences will be very bad!"
The satisfied one was no longer Elder Mou-Suan, but Elder Zi-Liang, who had already attacked Elder Mou-Suan's kidney and one lung.
Augh!
Choke! Choke!
Damn Old Zi-Liang!
"You're willing to get injured to hurt me? Aren't you investing too much? And what if you don't just get injured but end up dead? Why did you dare to take such a risk?" When Mou-Suan heard his rival's explanation, his expression immediately turned dark. He never expected that Elder Zi-Liang would risk his life just to hurt him.
"If that's the case, then consider I'm weak. However, the consequences are not bad, right? Well! It's your time to die, Oldy Mou-Suan!"
[Zi Clan Sword Skill: Ultimate Pattern; Combine Offense and Defense]
Swish! Swish! Swish!
Whoooooosh!!!
"I'll fight to the death! If I die, I'll take you with me!"
[Blood Sacrifice for Life Energy Burn Secret Skill]
Booooooom!!!
Bang! Bang!
Clang! Clang!
Booooooom!!!
Elder Mou-Suan had nothing to lose, so he was willing to expend his life energy to temporarily heal his internal organs, allowing him to stand up and raise his sword to resist attacks. No matter how Elder Zi-Liang swung his sword to the left or right, he could block it.
However, he could not counterattack at all because this Life Energy Burn could only support his injuries, so he did not have enough energy to counterattack. If he had only sustained external injuries, he would not have encountered such a problem.
Zheng-Fu looked at the two elders' battle and could guess that the winner would be Elder Zi-Liang. Because in the first round of the battle, he was only slightly injured, while Elder Mou-Suan was seriously injured, and it was an internal injury. Plus, Elder Mou-Suan used the Life Energy Burn skill, so he would not be able to withstand Elder Zi-Liang for long and would definitely lose.
"The battle would have ended soon. Now I think you should send the forces to deal with the Mou Clan, which is causing chaos right now. If you don't do anything, something unexpected might happen!"
Zheng-Fu then warned Zi-Dong-Lei, who was too busy focusing on his father's battle, that his problem was not just that. At that time, the Mou Clan members had already spread out to the entire city to cause chaos. And they did not know what other plans they had. Maybe the Mou Clan had done something to stop the light-element tactical formation from working.
Umm!
"I understand. I'll hurry to deal with those from the Mou Clan. I'll leave this situation to you. Please take care of my Father, Little Comrade. When this matter is over, I'll definitely repay your kindness!" Zi-Dong-Lei immediately came to his senses from Zheng-Fu's words. He had been too worried and concerned about his father since he had seen his father injured in the first round of battle, so he had forgotten what his true duty was at that time.
All right!
"City Governor, our Ma Clan will help you!" Ma-Li-Wei knew that he should participate in protecting the city, so he immediately offered his help without hesitation.
"Thank you, Master Ma. Then, let's go. It's time to eliminate the evil!" Zi-Dong-Lei nodded in gratitude to Ma-Li-Wei before turning to order the elders and the great skilled masters of his clan, who were still able to fight, to move to deal with the Mou Clan immediately. "Let's go, everyone."
"We'll also help City Governor!"
So do we!!!
Me too!!!
In addition to Ma Clan, the people who had been watching from the beginning and were almost killed by Mou-Suan also showed up to help deal with Mou-Clan. They were very angry with Mou-Suan's actions this time and had been resentful of the Mou Clan's actions for a long time. Although they were not very strong, they would be able to help ease the burden of the City Governor somewhat.
"Thank you all very much. After we finish dealing with this problem, I'll have a banquet for you all!"
Thank you, City Governor!!!
"Let's go! Let's go deal with the Mou Clan!"
"I have hated the Mou Clan for a long time. They like to bully people everywhere. This time, let me vent my anger on them!"
"Me too?"
Umm!
Let's go!!!
At the Lun Clan campsite...
"What did you say? Mou Clan rebelled?! And Zi-Dong-Lei and Zi Clan Predecessor have already broken through to the seventh level!"
"Yes, sir, Clan Leader! It started when the Mou Clan Predecessor went to Zi Clan's camp to seize the City Governor's Seal, but he couldn't do anything to the City Governor's camp. In the end, he chose the cruel method of killing innocent people one by one to pressure the City Governor, but it didn't work. Until the City Governor successfully increased his energy level and came out to deal with him. After that, Zi Clan Predecessor also successfully broke through his energy level and came out to fight Mou Clan Predecessor himself, sir!"
Damn it!
"Why did it turn out like this? Wouldn't our plans be ruined? Then what's the current situation outside?"
"Right now, Zi Clan Leader, Ma Clan Leader, and their clan's great skilled masters, including many people who were dissatisfied with Mou Clan, have gathered together to deal with Mou Clan, causing chaos in the city, sir!"
Umm...
"I understand!"
Yes, sir!
After Lun Clan Leader heard the report of the current situation, his expression turned very bad. His plan had been foiled since Mou-Suan had already broken through to the seventh level of the Great Deity Stage first, and now Zi-Dong-Lei and Zi-Liang had also advanced to that energy level. What could his Lun Clan do from now on?
"This is my command! Let everyone in the Lun Clan join Zi Clan and Ma Clan to fight together to deal with Mou Clan!"
Yes, sir, Clan Leader!
For the survival of the Lun Clan, he had to make the right choice. Of course, the side he chose had to be Zi Clan. If he chose to stay with the Mou Clan, his Lun Clan might be wiped out as well.
Apart from the Lun Clan, the Gong Clan and the Xin Clan also decided to side with the Zi Clan. Because no one in their clan had broken through to the seventh level yet, or even if one person could, they still would not be able to fight against Zi Clan, which had two seventh-level Great Deity Stage cultivators. So, the best choice for them was to help Zi Clan deal with Mou Clan.
Back at the Mou Clan mansion...
Bang!
Damn it!
"Why did this happen?! Shouldn't Zi Clan have been dealt with, and our clan become the number one clan in this city? Then why was my father injured? No way! This is all just a dream. I must be dreaming!"
Mou Clan Leader thought of so many reasons that his head almost exploded. He tried to find the best answer to make himself feel at ease and stop thinking about things that were depressing him.
Thump! Thump! Thump!
"Too bad, sir, Clan Leader! The five major clans have joined hands to attack us. Most of our great skilled master groups that we sent out have been killed. They'll likely arrive at our clan mansion soon, sir!"
What did you say?!
Mou Clan Leader tried to calm himself down and started to feel a bit better, but the new report he received caused his calm mind to erupt again.
"Order our people to retreat here and activate the clan's defensive tactical formation. I don't believe that my Mou Clan will end today!"
Yes, sir, Clan Leader!
Although the Mou Clan had to face battles from all sides, the Mou Clan Leader still did not think that his clan would end its long history on that day. Because the clan's ancestors had laid a very good foundation. Even though they had lost a lot of manpower now, they would never be completely wiped out as long as many of them were still within the clan's mansion. Because there were the three-star Deity Spell Defensive Tactical Formation and Attack Tactical Formation inscribed there.
That meant that even a seventh-level Great Deity Stage cultivator would find it difficult to break through the two tactical formations to come and deal with them within the clan. Unless Zi Clan had a strong spellcaster to help resolve and destroy those tactical formations.
"You damn Mou Clan! Today will be your day of death!"
"That's right! Hurry up and come out to receive your punishment!"
"If I can't kill the people of Mou Clan today, I definitely won't be able to sleep soundly!"
"Me too!"
Deal with them!!!
As time passed, more and more people joined in to deal with the Mou Clan. Since the Mou Clan members had always oppressed people with power, when the Mou Clan was about to fall, those people did not hesitate to immediately come out and avenge them.
