Chapter 291 - Despair

“No, First Elder! Our father is still in their hands!”

Wei Zhenzhen and other princes and princesses exclaimed, but Wei Xun turned a deaf ear and the imperial guards did not hesitate to execute the order. In a moment, hundreds of condensed beams of spiritual power shot to Su Li!

Su Li’s lips slightly hooked. She calmly and leisurely took Wei Yanghong a step back, properly preventing all attacks from entering the tactical matrix.

Wei Xun’s face immediately changed. Until now, he suddenly found out that there was a big tactical matrix around the palace hall. Hundreds of beams of spiritual power bombarded on it but made no difference.

What level the big tactical matrix was? Its protective capability was so powerful!

Seeing Wei Xun being shocked, Su Li laughed at Wei Hongyang slightly, “You seems to be more cowardly than I thought. You worked hard and cudgeled your brains to gain the state power and territory, but now they will belong to another man.”

Wei Yanghong’s face was pale, and his forehead was full of cold sweat due to either excessive blood loss or Wei Xun’s ruthlessness.

He snorted coldly, “Instead of letting you occupy our Nanjiang Country, it’s better to let the offspring of our Wei Family be enthroned. Do you want to take me as a hostage? Give it up!”

“Exactly!”

Surrounded by the array of the imperial guards, Wei Xun could approach the edge of the tactical matrix. Hearing Wei Yanghong’s words, he praised Wei Hongyang loudly. And he continued, “Su Li, no matter who you are, you are doomed to die today. Xiang Shi!”

When Commander Xiang was called, he came up and trembled with fear, saying quickly, “First Elder, I have issued an order of urgent assembly. Two minutes and thirty seconds later, all the city guards in Tiangu City will gather here and no enemy will escape then!”

Seeing Xiang Shi who was pretending to be confident, Wei Xun snorted coldly, “Go to prepare for it. I’ll investigate your guilty of dereliction of duty after this thing!”

“Yes, yes, yes, First Elder. I will prepare now!”

Knowing that Wei Xun didn’t mean to punish him, Xiang Shi was relieved suddenly and left awkwardly in horror.

After dealing with this matter, Wei Xun turned his head and grinned hideously, “Stupid! Little girl, a senior of the second hurdle of the longevity realm and a “turtle shell” are impossible to defeat our Wei Family.”

“You only bring hundreds of people, so, the tactical matrix can’t be strong. Even if thousands of people can’t break through it, tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands will make it.

Su Li frowned and did not answer.

Wei Xun was relieved, thinking that Su Li couldn’t struggle at all, so, his tone was sharp,

“I give you two choices now. The first is to release the head of our family and you and your team take the personal poisonous insect of our Wei Family, listen to me and fight for the Wei Family! In this way, all of you have a chance to keep your life, enjoy prosperity and wealth and even hold certain power in the Wei Family. As for you...”

A flash of evil light showed in Wei Xun’s eyes, “You are so young, so, it will be a pity if you take the personal poisonous insect. I happen to need an adopted daughter to serve me. If you agree, I can guarantee that you don’t need to take the insect. Besides, except me, no one dare to bully you in the whole Wei Family. What do you think?”

After Wei Xun finished his words, he looked forward to Su Li’s response, but Wei Zhenzhen was angry, saying, “First Elder, Su Li is the culprit who makes father’s legs broken and makes him lose dignity. How can you forgive her?!”

“Shut up! My decision is not up to you!”

Wei Xun scolded and glared at her. When he was about to say something, a crash of applause suddenly sounded in the tactical matrix.

“Clap, clap, clap, clap...”

Seeing Wei Xun turning his head, Su Li stopped and shook her head,

“I really don’t understand how such a stupid family is able to take charge of a country.”

Wei Xun was furious when he heard the words, but Su Li interrupted him before he said anything ruthless.

“Forget it. Xuan He, act. Since the old ancestor of the Wei Family doesn’t come out, then force him out!”

Xuan He immediately rushed out and attacked Wei Xun with cold palms!

There was an old saying that when a lord was disgraced, his servant should die for loyalty!

Wei Xun’s offending words to Su Li just now had completely aroused his anger, so, he made full power to attack him!

The air wave was like a terrible hurricane, blowing the imperial guards everywhere. Wei Xun originally thought he was safe being surrounded by the array, but he immediately became frightened.

It’s unstoppable!

An array of a thousand people couldn’t stop it!

This was an array of a thousand people of the peak of the acquired realm!

This person was above the level of the second hurdle of the longevity realm!

Wei Xun didn’t have time to remind the imperial guards and escaped madly backwards. He could survive for a while, but those imperial guards were unlucky. The terrible attack crushed and the imperial guards turned out to be blood mist. The atmosphere of panic spread immediately, making the remaining guards scattered.

They worked hard to cultivate themselves and joined the army just for making a living, not for dying for the Wei Family.

“Shit. Defend them, you ungrateful people!”

Wei Xun scolded madly. He made full use of his bodily movement of practicing martial arts to defend Xuan He’s attacks. Only if he could hold out for two minutes and thirty seconds, could him have a chance to survive!

Two minutes and thirty seconds...

Thinking of this, Wei Xun wanted to scold again. If those imperial guards didn’t escape, he wouldn’t be in such a miserable situation.

“Traitors... You are all traitors! All of you will die when the reinforcements come!”

Wei Xun scolded. Under the suppression of Xuan He, he soon couldn’t even speak. However, he was the first elder of the Wei Family and had reached the first hurdle of the longevity realm for decades, so, he could manage to survive by unique means. He just hoped that the reinforcements could come quickly.

At that time, even a senior of the third hurdle of the longevity realm would die under the attacks of one hundred thousand city guards!

Wei Zhenzhen fled to one side of the palace under the protection of a senior of the inborn realm, but other normal princes and princesses were unlucky, becoming a part of the blood mist.

“Princess, this man’s cultivation is really terrible. First Elder can’t stop him. Let’s ask the old ancestor for help!”

A guard beside her reminded her in time. Wei Zhenzhen, who was stunned, finally found a method. Her eyes was full of hope, “Yes! Our Wei Family still has an old ancestor. Hurry up, let’s go! I’ll ask the old ancestor for help!”

“Go!”

Wei Zhenzhen didn’t care about her usual arrogance, tightly grabbing the guard’s arms and being taken away by him. However, she didn’t know that her words and deeds were noticed by Su Li.

Fang Yuan coldly stared at Wei Zhenzhen’s departure and came to that direction, touching the hilt of his sword.

But at this time, Su Li stopped him with one hand. Looking at Fang Yuan’s puzzled eyes, she smiled slightly, “No hurry. Let’s play a long game. You have more chances latter.”

Fang Yuan stopped and returned to Su Li. After a while, he suddenly raised his head and said to Su Li, “Thank you.”

“For what?”

Su Li didn’t look back at him, saying faintly, “Actually, everything I did is for myself. If you thank me, I will feel embarrassed.”

Fang Yuan frowned. He didn’t understand. Nanjiang Country and Su Li had no relationship, so, how they were linked together?

“In the future... you will understand.”

Su Li didn’t say much, squatting and slightly pinching Wei Yanghong’s wrist, but no life ring appeared after a long time.

“Unexpectedly, he was a local spirit of the neverland...”

A flash of disappointment showed in Su Li’s eyes. Then she threw Wei Yanghong between Fang Yuan and Qu Qingning without hesitation, “He is useless. Who will you guys kill him?”

As soon as she finished her words, a sword light from Qu Qingning’s waist flashed across Wei Yanghong’s neck, leaving no time for Wei Yanghong to ask for help.

“You break the rule!”

Yin Xuetong pulled out half of the dagger, but had to insert it back angrily.

Qu Qingning grinned, “Don’t be angry. There is no difference no matter who killed him. I did it for you! Besides, you have many chances to kill enemies later. Don’t care about this one.”

After he said this, he looked at Fang Yuan and Fang Mu who looked both angry, and his voice became lower subconsciously, “All right, I’ll leave more enemies to you later.”

Hearing this, Fang Mu looked happier. His eldest brother broke Wei Yanghong’s legs at least, and his brother Ning and sister Tong were families, so, he was the worst one, having no chance to do anything to Wei Yanghong.

No one thought that there was anything wrong to kill Wei Yanghong ruthlessly. The hatred of the extermination of the clan had never been forgotten and would be endless!

Only when they killed the members of the Wei Family as many as possible could they relieve their hatred!

Two minutes and thirty seconds passed quickly, but for Wei Xun, even a breath time was so long. In the face of Xuan He’s continuous attacks, his strength had been extremely exhausted. If Xuan He had attacked him with all his cultivation instead of a pair of flesh palms, he would have been probably dead long ago.

When Wei Xun thought he would die, there was a strong wave behind him.

“Attack!!”

“Attack, attack, attack!”

“Kill rebels and protect the Emperor!”

The city guards finally came here!

Wei Xun was overjoyed, but before his joy lasted for half breath, a pair of white palms like jade suddenly appeared.

It was not Xuan He’s hands!

Wei Xun looked frightened, bursting the last strength in his body to avoid the attack. However, although he retreated quickly, the palms stretched out faster like a phantom, piercing his pubic region in the blink of an eye!

Wei Xun felt a sudden pain in his abdomen, and his genuine energy was completely drained, having no power instantly.

The hands didn’t seem to give him time to be sad. She held his shoulders and Wei Xun dazed for a while. When he was awake, he found that he was inside the palace. The one lying beside him was Wei Yanghong who had just died.

He was caught in the palace hall in a blink of an eye.

No matter how bad his situation was, he was a senior of the longevity realm. His genuine energy was condensed as firm as a rock, so, how could it be so easily broken by others?!

Could it be that in addition to Xuan He, there were people of the fourth hurdle of the longevity realm, and even more terrifying people hiding here?

Wei Xun looked confused and decadent. He looked up and saw Xuan He backing to the palace hurriedly. In his puzzled eyes, Xuan He suddenly knelt down and mournfully said, “Highly Great Master, I am in dereliction of duty, even letting you do it in person!”

Along the direction where Xuan He knelt down, Wei Xun saw the person being called “Highly Great Master”, and the confusion on his face instantly turned to be a shock.

“It doesn’t matter. I’m on the whim. You don’t have to blame yourself.”

Su Li waved her hands and looked at the dense and overwhelming city guards out of the hall, saying, “Well, let’s move on the next step. They should have arrived.”

As soon as she finished her words, a burst of bright light exposed in the slightly dim palace hall.

Wei Xun was originally shocked by Su Li’s cultivation, but the following scene made him completely despaired.
