Chapter 19: The Battle Against the Four Great Families
After he finished speaking, he realized he might have come across as a bit arrogant. After all, on the surface, he was still only a cultivator at the Level 4 .
However, if something truly happened to the Feng family, he would step in directly.
Without a doubt.
After today, even if nothing happened to the Feng family, he would personally destroy the four major families of Tomorrow City.
The aura of a Level 5 cultivator spread across Tomorrow City, and countless people displayed expressions of panic.
Especially some of the nearby factions and individuals; after realizing that something unusual was happening, many had already started to flee.
A grand battle between Level 5 cultivators was about to erupt.
No one wanted to witness a battle of this magnitude.
Even a Level 4 cultivator could perish in the aftermath if they weren't careful.
"Do you really want to fight to the death with my Feng family?"
Feng Yunqian's gaze was icy.
In an instant, Feng Qingtian's figure appeared beside her. He had noticed the situation early on, so he had hurried over.
Feng Qingtian's expression was solemn. The four major families in Tomorrow City had gathered a total of seven cultivators at Level 5.
Meanwhile, the Feng family had only two at this level.
In the past, these people were probably deterred by the lingering influence of the Feng family's elder, but now, they were clearly done holding back.
"What does Elder Feng have to say?"
Yuan Hao's voice echoed as his figure gradually emerged in the sky, with another Level 5 cultivator from the Yuan family at his side.
At this moment, all the Level 5 cultivators from the four major families had assembled.
Yuan Hao looked down at Feng Yunqian with contempt and said, "Does your Feng family deserve a fight to the death against our four major families?"
"If it weren't for Feng Hongyuan, you wouldn't even be qualified to enter this city."
Hearing these words, Feng Qingtian and Feng Yunqian's faces turned extremely grim. Indeed, without Feng Hongyuan holding the fort, the Feng family wouldn't have the qualifications to contend with the Four Great Families.
Feng Qingtian said calmly, "Yuan'er, when the fight begins, your priority is to find a chance to escape immediately. Your third uncle is already making arrangements. You don't need to worry about anything else; just focus on escaping. Even if the Feng family is destroyed, as long as you survive, the family still exists."
Feng Qingtian appeared composed, but his grave expression revealed how dire the situation was. The outcome was all but certain destruction for the Feng family.
Feng Yuan, however, was contemplating whether or not to simply kill the members of the Four Great Families. But if he did, how would he explain it?
"My master gave me sudden enlightenment?"
That was too far-fetched.
Even Feng Yuan found it a bit ridiculous. He wasn't too concerned about Feng Qingtian and Feng Yunqian's safety; as long as he was there, they were in no real danger. The issue was more about how to explain what would happen next.
Feng Yuan quickly devised a plan and smiled, saying, "Father, you're underestimating me. I'm at the peak of Level 4. With my strength, I'm unbeatable below the mid-layer of Level 5. Haven't you heard of geniuses who can surpass realms to defeat their enemies?"
Feng Qingtian was stunned and asked seriously, "Is that true?"
Having three combatants at Level 5 would certainly increase their chances of survival, even if they had to flee.
Feng Yuan smiled, his figure transforming into a meteor as he charged toward Li Feishi.
Li Feishi sneered at the sight of a mere Level 4 attacking him. "A small fry from Level 4 dares to attack me? You overestimate yourself."
He reached out to grab Feng Yuan, but suddenly felt a tremendous force. His expression changed drastically.
"Bang!"
Li Feishi was sent flying, crashing into the city.
What?!
Everyone present widened their eyes in disbelief. Feng Yuan had such power that he could send Li Feishi, who was at mid-layer Level 5, flying with one punch. The difference in realms between them was staggering. Some geniuses could surpass a small stage, but crossing an entire level was unheard of.
Feng Qingtian and Feng Yunqian were equally astonished, as if they had seen a ghost.
Was Feng Yuan really this strong? A single punch had sent Li Feishi flying—something even Feng Yunqian couldn't accomplish. Yet Feng Yuan had done it with ease, showcasing an incredible physical strength.
"Ugh!"
Li Feishi spat out a mouthful of blood. The punch had been filled with hidden force, and if he hadn't reacted quickly, he might have been seriously injured.
"How... How can you have this level of strength?"
Li Feishi's voice trembled with disbelief.
Feng Yuan replied coolly, "There are many things you haven't seen."
Wang Ming roared, "Stop wasting time! Kill them now, no mercy!"
Feng Yuan's strength had rattled him. If Feng Yuan could match Level 5 at such a young age, in two years, wouldn't he break through to Level 6?
Plus, the Feng family had demonstrated an astonishing amount of wealth, which only deepened the sense of crisis for the Four Great Families.
Wang Ming's mid-layer Level 5 aura burst out, filling the entire Myriad Demons City with pressure. The five Level 5 cultivators from the Wang and Yuan families charged toward Feng Qingtian .
Li Feishi and He Hongyun also rushed toward Feng Yuan.
The battle had begun.
Feng Qingtian 's face was grim, his body emanating a savage aura as his muscles turned crimson.
"Kill!"
Two against five—there was no suspense in this fight. After just a few moves, Qingtian and Feng Yunqian were already on the verge of defeat.
"Don't get bogged down! Look for an opening to flee immediately," Qingtian said in a low voice.
Wang Ming coldly remarked, "No one can save you today."
He tossed out a few stones inscribed with glowing runes.
Array stones!
The stones were inscribed with formations, similar to the Four Symbols Array, that could be activated when needed.
Wang Ming quickly set up the formation, and before Qingtian could react, they were completely enveloped.
"Damn it!" Qingtian cursed, his face darkening.
Wang Ming laughed. "Haha! This array is a mid-tier Profound-grade killing formation. I paid a high price to kill you."
With that, he controlled the array, and a massive sword materialized, slashing toward Qingtian .
Though the sword was formed from the array, it held the power to kill a Level 5 cultivator.
Qingtian barely dodged, but the sword swiftly turned toward Feng Yunqian.
Feng yunqian, at the early-layer of Level 5, was too slow to evade, barely able to defend.
"Ugh!"
The sword pierced through his defenses, heading straight for his forehead.
"I'll help!"
Feng Qingtian , bursting with power, shattered the sword with a punch, saving Feng yunqian.
Wang Ming's eyes gleamed coldly. "It's not over yet."
Three more weapons appeared within the formation: a sword, a saber, and a spear.
Meanwhile, the Yuan and Wang families' Level 5 experts entered the array, coordinating their attacks.
Qingtian's heart sank. They had been well-prepared. It was five against two, plus the killing formation—there was no way they could survive this.
"Yuan! Run now!" Qingtian shouted desperately.
But then, he froze.
What am I seeing?!
In his line of sight, Feng Yuan was actually holding his own against both He Hongyun and Li Feishi.
How is his power so overwhelming?
Both of them are mid-Layer Level 5!
For a Level 4 to fight one mid-Layer Level 5 is already absurd. But two?
He Hongyun roared, " Wang Ming , kill them quickly! This kid's power is unnatural."
Wang Ming , seeing that two mid-Layer Level 5 couldn't handle Feng Yuan, barked, "Useless!"
He Hongyun gritted his teeth. Why don't you come fight him yourself?
This Feng Yuan was impossibly fast, and his body was absurdly strong. Whenever He Hongyun prepared a spell, Feng Yuan would be in his face, leaving him no choice but to take the hits.
It was utterly humiliating.
And He Hongyun couldn't shake the feeling that Feng Yuan was toying with them.
