Han Qing burst into maniacal laughter.
The sheer madness sent chills down everyone's spines.
Lan Junjie was enraged!
His eyes turned red.
"You goddamn son of a bitch! Don't you dare sicken us here, you motherfucking bastard!"
"I can't believe I used to call you cousin. You're a complete degenerate! Forget it, my brother-in-law will definitely protect my sister. You pathetic worm can't succeed. Just go die and be eaten by maggots until not even dust remains!!"
Lan Tianxiong also said with deep pain, "Han Qing, you... you've disappointed me too much!"
"Shut up!"
Han Qing exploded like a cat whose tail had been stepped on. "It's all your fault, you old fool! If you hadn't insisted on marrying Xueyi to Ling Fan, that good-for-nothing, instead of me, how could I have ended up like this!"
"Back then, Ling Fan was a complete, useless wastrel, and I was a thousand times better than him! I loved Xueyi so much, yet you turned a blind eye! It's all because of you!"
"All of you Lan family can just die!"
Han Qing roared in madness.
It was as if he wanted to vent all the repressed, twisted, and deranged love that had festered in his heart for years.
For a moment, Lan Tianxiong, Li Huimei, and Lan Junjie were all silenced.
They were at a loss for words in the face of this madman.
Li Yuanzheng's expression remained terrifyingly indifferent.
His eyes seemed to pierce through the many rooms of the Lan Family Manor, sensing a heart-stopping power within.
This power was too terrifying.
Violent and restless, it seemed poised to incinerate everything.
Beneath this violent force, a new power was growing robustly.
And the Vermillion Bird Profound Fire Array of the Lan Family Manor was the key to containing this violent force and giving the nascent power a chance to breathe.
Li Yuanzheng no longer doubted.
He had a vague inkling of the truth.
Ling Fan's inability to break free must be because he was controlling the Lan Family Manor's array, counteracting that terrifying and boundless violent force.
Now, as long as this array was destroyed, the balance would be instantly shattered, like the collapse of a celestial pillar, dragging Ling Fan into an abyss of eternal damnation!
Li Yuanzheng's gaze returned to the Vermillion Bird Profound Fire Array before him.
From this array, he felt a formidable power capable of killing a Yuan Realm martial arts grandmaster.
Fortunately, this array could not deal with him at the moment.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have dared to come to the Lan Family Manor.
A cold smile flickered across his lips.
The news brought by Han Qing was incredibly timely, like timely rain after a long drought, giving their City Lord's Mansion a perfect opportunity to bring down the Lan family and Ling Fan!
Boom!
A terrifying martial qi appeared in his hand, its fluctuation instantly shocking everyone.
Quasi-Yuan Realm!
After twenty years of secluded cultivation, Li Yuanzheng had actually stepped into the Quasi-Yuan Realm.
Everyone was astonished.
Especially the Lan family members, who immediately felt an ominous premonition.
"Damn it!"
"What evil are you trying to do, you bastard!"
Liang Hugtu's eyes widened in alarm at Li Yuanzheng's actions.
He also vaguely guessed what Ling Fan was doing.
It was precisely for this reason that no one could be allowed to disturb Ling Fan.
Boom!
Liang Hugtu unleashed a surge of powerful energy, his entire being transforming into a terrifying storm, directly charging out of the array that enveloped the entire Lan Family Manor.
Bang!
Two forces of Quasi-Yuan Realm caliber collided fiercely.
Instantly, violent ripples of power shook the void, emitting a world-shattering sonic boom!
Li Yuanzheng staggered back half a step.
However, Liang Hugtu, on the other hand, retreated four steps in succession, his back nearly hitting the Vermillion Bird Profound Fire Array.
His expression changed drastically.
He had initially thought that he, too, was in the Quasi-Yuan Realm, and that his strength had further improved with the aid of the Blood Spirit Fruit bestowed by Ling Fan. Even if Li Yuanzheng was formidable, he should have had a chance to fight.
But to his surprise, this collision resulted in a significant disadvantage.
Li Yuanzheng's twenty years of secluded cultivation were clearly not in vain.
This person's strength was likely not inferior to Elder Han, the retainer of the Governor's Mansion, and might even be stronger.
He was almost comparable to Xing He Zi, who occupied Liu Ke's body.
Nearly invincible below the Yuan Realm, infinitely close to the Yuan Realm!
"This is bad, everyone attack together! We must fight to the death, buy time for the Master, and absolutely prevent them from destroying the array, otherwise, everything will be over!" Liang Hugtu roared back.
Upon seeing Liang Hugtu's retreat, all the Lan family members knew the situation was dire.
Liang Hugtu's words confirmed this.
"Fight! Fight to the death!"
"Young Master-in-law has protected our Lan family repeatedly. Today, it's our turn to protect Young Master-in-law, protect the young lady, and protect our Lan family!"
"Kill!"
"We must not let these treacherous villains succeed! Drive them out of the Lan Family Manor!"
Boom!
All the Lan family members were ignited.
Their blood surged, and they united against the common enemy!
Although their numbers were far fewer than those of the City Lord's Mansion,
And the quality of their strong individuals was also a notch lower than the City Lord's Mansion.
Yet, they hesitated not at all!
Because not fighting would only lead to a faster, more tragic, and utterly undignified death.
Rumble!
Instantly, outside the Lan Family Manor's array, a fierce melee erupted.
Nearly a thousand strong individuals from the City Lord's Mansion held the absolute numerical advantage.
Despite the Lan family's recent increase in strength, their foundation was ultimately insufficient. With only two to three hundred people, and far fewer experts than the City Lord's Mansion,
They were soon forced back, step by step, to the front of the Vermillion Bird Profound Fire Array, struggling to hold on, with no capacity to counterattack.
"Don't get entangled with them, focus on destroying the array first!"
Li Yuanzheng said coldly.
A chorus of unified killing intent erupted from the City Lord's Mansion's strong individuals.
Among them were as many as ten Xuan Gang Realm experts!
Three of these Xuan Gang Realm experts were even in the late stage.
These individuals had never appeared in Jiangnan City before!
It was evident how terrifying the power hidden by the Jiangnan City Lord's Mansion had been over the past twenty years.
Rumble
Powerful forces struck the Vermillion Bird Profound Fire Array.
Instantly, ripples erupted, causing the entire array to vibrate violently.
This was the combined effort of nearly a thousand strong individuals.
The weakest were at the early stage of Qi Refining Realm.
There were more than ten Xuan Gang Realm experts.
Nearly a hundred at the peak of Qi Refining Realm.
Coupled with Li Yuanzheng, a master infinitely close to the Yuan Realm.
Even if the Vermillion Bird Profound Fire Array's power had not been siphoned off by Ling Fan, it might not have been able to withstand the combined assault of so many people.
Let alone in its current state of extreme weakening!
Bang bang bang!
Various array foundation materials buried around the Lan Family Manor began to explode.
This was like a chain reaction.
Once a weak point of the array was breached, other areas would follow suit, and eventually, the entire array would be destroyed!
"Hahaha!"
Li Qingxuan, sitting in his wheelchair, clapped his hands and laughed triumphantly.
"Die, all of you, die! Go to hell!"
Li Yuanzheng's eyes gleamed. The array couldn't withstand many more blows!
As soon as the array was broken,
There would be no worry about Ling Fan not dying.
This was an array of the Heavenly Yuan Realm Grandmaster level.
The backlash force would undoubtedly be of Grandmaster caliber as well.
