"The Mu Manor actually has a high-level Master realm expert!"
Qing Tiejun and Duanmu Qi exchanged glances, their brows furrowed, and then looked at the old man with solemn expressions.
A high-level Master realm expert was already capable of deciding the final outcome of this battle. It could be said that from the moment this old man appeared, the Qing Manor and the Duanmu family had already lost.
"Do you wish to take your own lives, or shall I personally send you on your way?" The old man slowly floated in front of Mu Ruxue, his gaze shifting slightly before he spoke to Qing Tiejun and Duanmu Qi.
Qing Tiejun and Mu Ruxue's faces instantly changed upon hearing this. The old man was so powerful; how could they resist? Moreover, at this moment, both of them felt a spiritual aura enveloping them. Clearly, this was the old man locking onto them.
"Mu Hongguang, I didn't expect you to be one step ahead in the end. But even so, I wonder if your recently broken-through high-level Master realm strength can suppress us?"
Just then, a hoarse voice suddenly rang out. Everyone turned their heads at the sound and saw two figures whistling towards them.
"Greetings, Old Ancestor!"
"Greetings, Old Ancestor!"
Qing Tiejun and Duanmu Qi bowed to the newcomers, their expressions easing slightly at this moment.
Li Xuan, however, frowned slightly. The two old men who appeared seemed to be only at the intermediate Master realm. Although they appeared much stronger than ordinary intermediate Master realm experts, they were ultimately not at the high-level Master realm.
Indeed!
"Qing Jinmu, Duanmu Xiong, you two old nuisances are still alive, much to my surprise. However, with just the two of you, I doubt you can save them." Mu Hongguang glanced at the two old men, then pointed his finger at Qing Tiejun and Duanmu Qi.
"Whether we can save them will be known after a fight. Even if we perish, you won't fare much better." Qing Jinmu and Duanmu Xiong also looked slightly solemn, but as the Old Ancestors of their respective clans, with the fate of their families at stake, how could they retreat?
"So be it!" Mu Hongguang sneered upon hearing this, and his aura instantly surged. In the next moment, the pressure of the high-level Master realm permeated the air.
In an instant, all the low-level Master realm experts present were sent flying.
Li Xuan, of course, was an exception.
Even the intermediate Master realm experts were now circulating their spiritual energy to resist.
Qing Jinmu and Duanmu Xiong exchanged glances, a resolute look flashing in their eyes.
"Attack together!"
As soon as they spoke, their figures lunged directly towards Mu Hongguang.
"Let you see what a gap is!"
Mu Hongguang finished speaking and pressed his left hand towards the void.
Boom!
In the next moment, the figures of Qing Jinmu and Duanmu Xiong, who were about to reach Mu Hongguang, were forcefully suppressed. Their expressions turned to horror, clearly not expecting Mu Hongguang to be so powerful after breaking through.
In just one exchange, the two were directly suppressed.
"This is true power." Seeing the expressions of Qing Jinmu and Duanmu Xiong, Mu Hongguang clearly enjoyed it. After all, Qing Jinmu and Duanmu Xiong were contemporaries of Mu Hongguang, and being able to suppress them now was enough to make him proud.
Pfft!
As Mu Hongguang willed it, the invisible force became even more terrifying. Qing Jinmu and Duanmu Xiong both spat out a mouthful of blood. In an instant, their faces turned pale.
"Old Ancestor!"
Qing Tiejun and Duanmu Qi's faces changed drastically upon seeing this. They knew that although Qing Jinmu and Duanmu Xiong were only at the intermediate Master realm, their ages were there. Moreover, they had been immersed in the intermediate Master realm for many years, and were by no means comparable to ordinary intermediate Master realm experts.
And now, they were actually suppressed to such a state by Mu Hongguang.
"Heaven wishes for my Mu family to prosper!"
Mu Ruxue, not far away, couldn't help but be overjoyed upon seeing this. Even the Old Ancestors of the Qing and Duanmu families were suppressed by their own Old Ancestor. Who else in Dou City could be an opponent to the Mu Manor? Although the death of Mu Qingfeng had deprived the Mu Manor of an heir, Mu Ruxue was not old by the standards of a spiritual master, and could still have more children.
As long as they took control of Dou City, what was wrong with raising another heir?
"Go to your graves." Mu Hongguang glanced at Qing Jinmu and Duanmu Xiong, then brought his palm down towards the void.
Boom!
With a booming sound, the bodies of Qing Jinmu and Duanmu Xiong shattered like glass.
Blood mist filled the air, and a strong smell of blood instantly spread.
Li Xuan frowned upon seeing this. Qing Jinmu and Duanmu Xiong had just appeared and died so quickly. These veteran intermediate Master realm experts were truly terrifyingly powerful after breaking through.
"This invincible power is truly intoxicating." Mu Hongguang seemed to enjoy it immensely, taking a deep breath before closing his eyes and speaking slowly.
In the next moment, Mu Hongguang's eyes snapped open, and he looked at everyone: "I will give you an opportunity. As long as you kill these two, you may live."
Mu Hongguang was looking in the direction of Qing Tiejun and Duanmu Xiong. It seemed he intended to force them to kill each other. It had to be said that this move of striking at the heart was brilliant.
Everyone present exchanged glances. Their initial confusion gave way to hesitation. Finally, a look of determination appeared in everyone's eyes.
Better a dead comrade than a living self!
Even ants cling to life, let alone beings who had lived for hundreds of years. Moreover, after Qing Jinmu and Duanmu Xiong were killed, they all believed they were doomed to die today. Now that there was a chance to live, no one present was foolish enough to let it slip away.
Soon, Qing Tiejun and Duanmu Xiong were surrounded by the remaining powerhouses from various factions.
"Patriarch, I am sorry." Some powerhouses seemed reluctant. After murmuring a few words to Qing Tiejun and Duanmu Xiong, they joined the others in attacking.
In an instant, terrifying pressure permeated the air. Attacks rained down like a storm. Even Qing Tiejun and Duanmu Qi, as patriarchs, were extremely solemn.
"I never thought I would die like this today..." Qing Tiejun gave a wry smile and slowly closed his eyes. He showed no intention of resisting.
"Patriarch Qing, you are making things difficult for me."
Just then, a voice suddenly rang out. Qing Tiejun immediately opened his eyes upon hearing this, and was stunned when he saw who had spoken.
It was Li Xuan, who had already appeared in front of Qing Tiejun. All the attacks from the crowd had been blocked by Li Xuan.
"This is... Sword Domain?!"
