"No~"
"Retreat quickly!!"
The powerhouses of Fen Yan Valley and Lu Shen Hall were all aghast. They clearly hadn't expected the battle to turn around so quickly. The Phoenix tribe's retreat had undoubtedly plunged them into a dire situation.
"Withdraw!!!"
Huo Luoyu and Shangguan Yanming's faces were etched with extreme solemnity. The Dragon tribe were lunatics for daring to slaughter their two factions so brutally.
Hiss...
The various forces in Yanhuang Holy City watched this scene with wide, stunned eyes.
"My heavens, am I dreaming?"
"Damn it, the Dragon tribe actually repelled the Phoenix tribe single-handedly, and slaughtered both Fen Yan Valley and Lu Shen Hall!"
"Cough cough... is the Dragon tribe's ancient glory returning, tsk tsk~~"
"Heh, do you think the Dragon tribe will, as they did in ancient times, unify the endless territories in the future~~~"
Boiling discussions echoed in every corner of the Holy City. Before the Sihai Merchant Guild, Xia Yu also stared at the scene in stunned silence. "With the Dragon tribe's peak combat power alone, they probably far surpass the Sihai Merchant Guild. Ye Xuan behind the Dragon tribe..."
"This is truly astonishing. It seems forming an alliance with the Dragon tribe is an urgent matter, and perhaps... in the near future, it's not impossible for the Sihai Merchant Guild to become a part of Ye Xuan's Xuan Alliance."
"Of the four hegemonic forces, besides Fen Yan Valley and Lu Shen Hall, only the Sihai Merchant Guild and the Liuli Holy Kingdom remain."
"With the current combat strength of Yanhuang Holy City, even the Liuli Holy Kingdom might not compare. This means..."
After a pause, Xia Yu continued, "Can Yanhuang Holy City now be considered the foremost Holy Kingdom in the endless territories!"
The Dragon tribe's might, Yanhuang's rise!!
This was the unanimous thought of countless powerful individuals. The Dragon tribe's reign was within reach!
Meanwhile, at the headquarters of Lu Shen Hall.
"Act!"
As Ye Xuan's voice echoed, the next moment, with a single palm strike from afar, the forbidden area behind Lu Shen Hall was razed to the ground. Several experts of the Yan Yang realm within didn't even have time to cry out before they perished on the spot.
"Plunder all their resources, make it quick!"
"Yes, Alliance Leader!!"
Swallowing hard, they stared at the flattened forbidden area behind Lu Shen Hall, leveled by their Alliance Leader. Damn it, was their Alliance Leader even human? Lu Shen Hall was one of the four hegemonic powers, and it had been dealt with so easily.
Potian Lei Wang gawked at the young man who was once far inferior to him. "My goodness, how strong has the Alliance Leader become now?"
"Truly... there's no harm without comparison."
Looking at the surrounding Hao Yue and Yan Yang realm experts, who were far stronger than him, he couldn't help but lick his lips. The pressure was immense!
An hour later, Lu Shen Hall had been completely ransacked.
"Withdraw!"
With a single command, the entire Lu Shen Hall had been ravaged by the experts of the Ye Alliance beyond recognition. Describing it as ruins would not be an exaggeration; it was completely a large garbage dump.
Swish~~
With a flash, Ye Xuan and his group entered the depths of the Mangcang Mountain Range, leaving behind the Lu Shen Hall headquarters, which was filled with wails and the stench of blood. If this scene were known to the outside world, it would undoubtedly stir up endless turmoil.
A quarter of an hour later.
Ye Xuan, along with over a thousand top experts of the Xuan Alliance, appeared in the arena. "Alliance Leader, these are the spoils from this expedition."
Duanmu Wenren respectfully handed a spatial ring to Ye Xuan. After sensing its contents, Ye Xuan couldn't help but curve his lips. "10 million top-grade Sacred Crystals, 15 billion high-grade Sacred Crystals, 300 billion mid-grade Sacred Crystals, over 100,000 spiritual herbs of million-year age..."
"As expected of Lu Shen Hall, with its endless years of inheritance, they are truly rich in resources!"
As he spoke, Ye Xuan's smile couldn't be contained. He was clearly very satisfied and then looked towards Fen Yan Valley. "The battle with the An You Mo Hu should also be over by now."
"I fear the resources would not be much different from those of Lu Shen Hall."
Ye Xuan secretly doubled the resources of Lu Shen Hall, then his eyes narrowed. Indeed, plundering was always the fastest way to acquire resources.
Moreover...
If the Liuli Holy Kingdom and the Sihai Merchant Guild were also plundered, the resources would likely quadruple!
Yanhuang Holy City, not far away.
"Pfft~"
A battered figure appeared in the arena. This person was none other than the strongest ancestor of Lu Shen Hall, Shangguan Yanming. This battle was arguably the most miserable of his life.
"Ancestor Yanming, why don't we charge back in!"
"En!?"
Hearing the words of a Lu Shen Hall ancestor, Shangguan Yanming was clearly tempted. After all, a mortal enmity had already been formed. There were still two peerless geniuses within the Dragon tribe that hadn't been dealt with. Although dangerous, it was indeed worth a gamble.
However, as Shangguan Yanming hesitated, a telepathic message sounded in his ear. Upon learning the information, he immediately became enraged, "Dragon tribe, how ruthless!!"
With a "噗" sound, Shangguan Yanming spat out more blood, his vision darkened, and his mind reeled. He was clearly on the verge of losing consciousness.
"Ancestor!!!"
Shangguan Yanming's condition truly terrified all the powerhouses of Lu Shen Hall, who rushed forward in unison. "Ancestor, are you alright."
"What happened to make you so..."
After recovering his breath, Shangguan Yanming's eyes were filled with irrepressible hatred. "Everyone, return to headquarters at full speed. Just half an hour ago, our headquarters was attacked, and all resources were plundered."
Boom!!!
Shangguan Yanming's words stunned everyone in Lu Shen Hall.
"What!"
"Headquarters was raided, how is this possible..."
"Damn it, who did this? Could it be the Dragon tribe???"
"That's impossible, all the Dragon tribe's powerhouses are in Yanhuang Holy City~~~"
"Even if it's unrelated to the Dragon tribe, they are definitely involved!!"
Not long after, Shangguan Yanming, along with a group of surviving Lu Shen Hall powerhouses, rapidly returned to the Lu Shen Hall headquarters. Elsewhere, a similar scene was unfolding in Fen Yan Valley.
Thus, Lu Shen Hall and Fen Yan Valley suffered a complete defeat, losing both troops and treasure!
Yanhuang Holy City, however, presented a different scene.
"The Dragon tribe has emerged, and Yanhuang is destined to rise. Congratulations."
Just then, over a hundred figures appeared before Yanhuang Holy City. These individuals were none other than the Holy Lord of the Liuli Holy Kingdom, Baili Junyan, whose strength reached the seventh heaven of Hao Yue realm.
However, his eyes flickered, as if he was contemplating something.
Xia Wanjin looked at the Liuli Holy Kingdom's Holy Lord, Baili Junyan, his face hardening. "That scoundrel Baili Junyan has arrived. He's definitely involved in intercepting Potian."
"I really want to cripple that scoundrel!"
Xia Yu's eyes narrowed upon hearing Xia Wanjin's words, and he cast a meaningful glance at the Liuli Holy Kingdom contingent. Clearly, they were also apprehensive, as no less than five Yan Yang realm experts had arrived.
"Does the Liuli Holy Kingdom also want to reap benefits like the mantis catching the cicada, with the oriole behind? But... they are thinking too naively."
Then, he recalled that Ye Xuan had saved Xia Potian by killing Baili Tutian, an expert from the Liuli Holy Kingdom. Baili Tutian was Baili Junyan's own brother. If Baili Junyan knew that the mastermind behind the Dragon tribe was the murderer of his brother, what would his reaction be?
