The eruption of this violent aura instantly caused everyone to retreat several steps.
Du Tianen stared coldly at Ge Qingkong, saying in a deep voice, "Old Ge, you've disappointed me!"
Facing Du Tianen's terrifying aura, Ge Qingkong's eyes showed no fear or retreat. With a firm resolve, a majestic surge of energy erupted from his body, directly confronting Du Tianen.
Bang! Bang!
The moment the two energies clashed, countless explosive sounds reverberated in the air, stirring up a tearing gale that raged outwards.
The other Du family disciples once again retreated further back. The aftermath of their battle was not something they could withstand.
"Old Ge, don't force me!"
Du Tianen clenched his fists, not intending to kill Ge Qingkong.
It was important to remember that Du Tianen's strength had reached the late stage of Wu Zong.
And Ge Qingkong was only in the middle stage of Wu Zong.
If Du Tianen were to harbor killing intent, Ge Qingkong would absolutely not be his match.
"Patriarch, why are you unwilling to trust the young lady just once!" Ge Qingkong still showed no intention of stopping.
At this moment, every second they could stall was another second gained.
"Stubborn and unrepentant, further words are futile!"
At this point, Du Tianen's last shred of patience was worn thin.
"Blade arise!"
Du Tianen's expression turned cold as countless ferocious true qi condensed in his hands. In an instant, a dark red blade shape gradually materialized before everyone's eyes.
"It seems the Patriarch is truly angered!"
"Alas! Why did Old Ge have to do this?"
"Let's hope the Patriarch shows mercy! After all, Old Ge has been loyal to the Du family for so many years!"
"Indeed!"
"..."
The Du family members watching from afar, observing the two figures battling, felt a pang of reluctance.
Du Tianen held the ethereal long blade, with countless ferocious true qi coiling around its surface. He looked at Ge Qingkong and said coldly, "Old Ge, I'll give you one last chance!"
"Retreat!"
In response, Ge Qingkong let out a hearty laugh. He said, "It's been a long time since I've witnessed the Patriarch's blade techniques. Today, let this old man have the honor of learning from you!"
With his words, Ge Qingkong began to gather his true qi into his fists. Through the constant compression of his true qi, he formed a pair of true qi gauntlets on his hands.
"Come on!"
Ge Qingkong directly soared into the air and charged towards Du Tianen.
Boom!
Bang!
Moments later, the true qi fluctuations from the collision of blades and fists stirred up shattered stones. Countless blade-light and fist imprints clashed against each other, and the dissipated true qi splattered everywhere, appearing quite terrifying.
After dozens of rounds.
The speed of Ge Qingkong's fist imprints clearly began to decline. In contrast, every blade-light from Du Tianen became even more ferocious.
Killing intent was palpable!
"It's over!"
After Du Tianen broke through one of the fist imprints, he raised his blade to his chest. Then, a dark red blade-light shot diagonally forward.
The momentum was like a rainbow!
Seeing this, Ge Qingkong could only raise his fists to block the attack.
However, that fearsome blade-light pierced directly through his true qi gauntlets and struck his arms.
Swoosh!
Drip. Drip.
Ge Qingkong lowered his arms, his face pale. Crimson liquid flowed down his robes and onto the ground, a scene of desolate sorrow.
At this moment, Du Tianen had already appeared before him. Looking at the dejected old man, the blade in his hand dissolved into specks of starlight and vanished into the air.
"Was it worth it?"
Du Tianen faintly uttered a sentence, then stepped past Ge Qingkong and walked towards his father's location.
The rest of the group followed suit.
With things having reached this point, Ge Qingkong was powerless to stop them.
"Young lady, Grandpa did his best!"
...
At the very back of the Du family's group, Du Tianshang looked at his elder brother at the front, his expression somber and complex.
"Second Master, people from the Feng family have arrived."
At this moment, a Du family disciple quickly approached Du Tianshang and whispered in his ear.
"I know!" Du Tianshang replied expressionlessly.
"Then should we go..."
"No need!"
Du Tianshang raised his hand to signal.
He glanced once more at Du Tianen at the front, and in the direction everyone was going. After a moment of contemplation, he turned and left.
"I'll go personally!"
...
In Du Guidao's room, dazzling white light was emanating.
At the center of this light was a mass of white energy. Ye Ming and Du Guidao's figures were within it.
Ye Ming's method of healing Du Guidao was the same as when he treated Fang Junxue previously. Repairing the body through primordial force was currently the most effective treatment method.
However, Du Guidao's injuries were on a completely different level compared to Fang Junxue's. Therefore, the time and primordial force required for treatment were naturally different.
As it stood, to completely restore Du Guidao's body would require at least another half hour.
During this time, no one could be allowed to disturb them.
...
Outside the door, Du Yuemian had already taken out "Twin Moons" from the long box and held it tightly in her hand.
At this moment, a palpable aura of killing intent emanated from Du Yuemian. Her eyes were filled with solemnity.
She had naturally felt the shockwaves from her father's battle with Ge Qingkong. Therefore, she was well aware of what was to come.
On the other hand, although she was standing outside the door, Du Yuemian could clearly sense the surge of vitality emanating from within.
She knew that Ye Ming was currently at a critical juncture in his treatment and absolutely could not tolerate any disturbances.
Therefore, no matter what, she had to stop her father and the others.
Three minutes later.
A series of fragmented footsteps reached her ears.
Upon hearing this, her delicate eyebrows furrowed. She glanced back at the room behind her, then walked out, holding her twin blades.
This place!
Must not become a battlefield!
At this moment, Du Yuemian's eyes held an unwavering determination, allowing no room for retreat.
With things having come to this, she no longer harbored any illusions that Du Tianen and the others would believe her.
Moments later, as Du Tianshang and the others entered the main hall, they saw a graceful figure holding twin blades, her expression indifferent.
At this moment, the heroic spirit of a woman was fully displayed on Du Yuemian. Simply standing there, she resembled an unparalleled female war god.
Invincible!
Du Tianen looked at his daughter and suddenly felt a sense of unfamiliarity.
Yet, it had only been a few days since their last meeting.
"Why has it become like this?" Du Tianen silently questioned himself.
At the same time, seeing his daughter in this state, his suspicion towards the young stranger deepened.
"Dad! Could you please withdraw."
Du Yuemian asked softly.
"I can refrain from taking action," Du Tianen stepped forward and said in a deep voice, "but you must open the door. I want to see what miraculous methods that young man possesses to heal your grandfather!"
Du Yuemian obviously could not agree to her father's request.
Putting aside the fact that Ye Ming was at a critical stage of treatment.
Even if he were a cultivator, she could not reveal this to everyone without Ye Ming's permission.
"No!"
Du Yuemian shook her head and raised the Twin Moons in her hands, warning everyone.
Seeing this, Du Tianen's hand began to flow with true qi, and he slowly said,
"Yuemian, you are possessed!"
