84: Rescue the ancestors from the tiger's den and escape with injuries

“You want to come with us?”

The high-ranking members of the Shi Family paused, all looking at Shi Xiaodan with surprise.

How did this coward become so bold today?

This was not the Shi Xiaodan they knew!

“Of course, with the Family in trouble, although I, Shi Xiaodan, am timid, how can I be a coward and watch the Family be destroyed? Please, Great Guardian God, take me with you so I can contribute to killing this villain!”

Shi Xiaodan spoke with indignation and fervor, looking as if he was heroically going to his death, which made people look at him in a new light.

“Good! If even Shi Xiaodan has such courage to face the enemy, who can destroy my Shi Family?”

“No one can!”

“Precisely!”

Shi Rufeng was very pleased with everyone’s response, and even more so with Shi Xiaodan’s courage to step forward in the Family’s time of crisis. He looked at Shi Xiaodan and said, “It’s good that you come with us; this Clan God will let you come along to train your courage!”

Letting Shi Xiaodan, an Out-of-Body Realm Family Protector, deal with that person?

Shi Rufeng and the others had no expectations at all.

Even they weren’t completely confident in facing the enemy; Shi Xiaodan going along would just be to join the excitement.

Although Shi Xiaodan was often ridiculed as a coward, his attitude at critical moments was quite good. He appreciated it, and there was no harm in letting Shi Xiaodan join the fun.

“Thank you, Clan God!”

Shi Xiaodan outwardly flattered them, but inwardly he cursed: *I’m timid? You guys are really blind. I’ve been an undercover agent for so many years, venturing alone into the Dragon’s Den; how could I be a coward?*

*This is called biding my time!*

However, what made Shi Xiaodan extremely frustrated was that after so long undercover, he still hadn’t avenged his great grudge. Instead, he watched his enemies live more and more comfortably.

Fortunately, good is rewarded with good, and evil with evil. The Shi Family had provoked an existence they shouldn’t have, and bad news kept coming. Now, they were even facing the pressure of annihilation from a mysterious powerful expert.

During this time, he had the opportunity to strike at Shi Tianjing, but he didn't plan to do so.

Firstly, he might be exposed if he acted.

Secondly, he didn't want Shi Tianjing and Shi Youse, this father and son, to die directly. He wanted them to taste all kinds of suffering before slowly dying, only then could he redeem the guilt deep in his Soul for his wife and children.

Death is too simple!

And too easy for them!

To wish for death is difficult!

Shi Xiaodan left the Shi Family as he wished. Perhaps he was the only one present who realized that the truly dangerous place was actually the Shi Family's main base.

The mysterious powerful expert would definitely come to rescue people, and as long as he came to rescue people, people would inevitably die... Long Aotian didn't know that Shi Rufeng and Shi Rulin were going to ambush him. After successively activating several Level 6 Void Maelstrom Arrays previously set up in the imperial city's major districts against the Shi Family's properties, he seemed to feel that the number of powerful experts flying through the Void Realm had increased, and he couldn't help but frown slightly.

The Imperial Family was alarmed?

Other major powers were also alarmed?

“The news spreads really fast. The news from outside the imperial city must have also returned, right? Now, the imperial city is also experiencing a similar situation to outside the imperial city.”

“Hmph, is Emperor Ye trying to meddle?”

“Well, continuing to cause destruction is no longer very meaningful, and I might even be ambushed. Now, the Shi Family's three Mahayana Realm powerful experts must have already moved out, and the Shi Family's forces are depleted. This is my chance to rescue the two Old Ancestors!”

Thinking of this, Long Aotian turned back.

This time, he would launch a surprise attack!

In the Great Stone District, he had inscribed a total of three hundred Level 6 Void Maelstrom Arrays. The previous attack in the Great Stone District had only activated one-third of them.

The remaining two hundred Level 6 Void Maelstrom Arrays were mostly inscribed in Great Stone Town, essentially hanging a sharp sword over the Shi Family's head.

The Void Annihilation Array was inscribed silently, invisibly, and seamlessly, merging with the heavens and earth. As long as it wasn't activated, no one would know of its existence, making it impossible to guard against. Long Aotian could inscribe as many as he wanted, and no one in the Shi Family could detect that they were already caught in a net laid by someone else.

Nearly ten million li away from Great Stone Town, Long Aotian entered the Treasure Pagoda with a thought, controlling the Treasure Pagoda, which had transformed into a speck of dust, to fly rapidly towards Great Stone Town.

Great Stone Town surely had powerful experts of the Shi Family stationed there. He didn't want his arrival to be exposed before the two Old Ancestors were rescued.

Soon.

Long Aotian arrived at Great Stone Town.

At this time, Great Stone Town was somewhat quiet, with no pedestrians on the streets, as if brewing some great terror.

Long Aotian knew that the Shi Family members in the town were actually frightened by the continuous bad news, hiding at home and not daring to go out, fearing being targeted by the mysterious powerful expert.

Long Aotian couldn't help but sneer, *if he activated the Level 6 Void Maelstrom Array, would hiding at home be useful?*

True safety meant escaping from here!

Of course, a Mahayana Realm powerful expert could break through a Level 6 Void Maelstrom Array very quickly. When he entered the city, he had set up sixty superimposed Void Annihilation Arrays, which couldn't withstand the full-force attack of five Mahayana Realm powerful experts. A superimposed attack of sixty Level 6 Void Maelstrom Arrays was as fragile as paper in front of a Mahayana Realm powerful expert.

However, what Long Aotian wanted was not to trap and kill, but to delay the opponent for a moment, allowing him to escape... In the Shi Family's main base, there were people moving about from time to time, many of whom were delivering messages. Long Aotian attached himself to a Shi Family Disciple delivering a message and floated in.

His Divine Sense was constantly released. Currently, the Shi Family was under strict martial law, and the Divine Sense isolation array and defensive array were both active, which caused him quite a bit of trouble.

However, as long as he rescued the two Old Ancestors, with his speed of four hundred li per step, he could escape within three steps, and the Shi Family's array couldn't do anything to him.

“The two Old Ancestors are only guarded by one Nascent Soul Realm Family Elder? Everyone is in the Shi Family's main conference hall? Very good!”

Long Aotian quietly snuck into the prison where the two Old Ancestors were held, and with a thought, inscribed a small Level 6 Void Maelstrom Array to surround the Shi Family's Nascent Soul Realm Family Elder.

Just as he emerged from the Treasure Pagoda and cut the chains binding the two Old Ancestors, the Shi Family's Nascent Soul Realm Family Elder was also alarmed. Long Aotian activated the Void Annihilation Array with a thought.

The next second, Long Aotian, to the bewildered surprise of the two Old Ancestors, hoisted them onto his shoulders and ran.

To avoid the two Old Ancestors misunderstanding him, Long Aotian appeared in his original form. Seeing that the person was Xiao Aotian, the two Long Family Old Ancestors were truly bewildered at this moment.

In their bewilderment, they were even more stunned as Xiao Aotian, like an eagle carrying chicks, flashed and flew four hundred li in a single bound.

What kind of speed was this?

The two Old Ancestors were bewildered again.

Was this really Xiao Aotian?

“How dare you!!”

However, just as the two Old Ancestors were stunned by Long Aotian, Shi Ruhuo's furious roar came from the Shi Family's conference hall.

Long Aotian didn't know that the reason Shi Ruhuo sent a Nascent Soul Realm Elder to guard the two Long Family Old Ancestors was because this Nascent Soul Realm Elder was a loyal subordinate, and his Soul Essence Pearl was placed in the conference hall.

Once something went wrong.

If the person died, the pearl would shatter!

All the high-ranking members of the Shi Family who remained would be alerted immediately.

“...”

Hearing Shi Ruhuo's furious voice explode as if right next to his ear, Long Aotian felt his scalp tingle.

Especially since Shi Ruhuo seemed to have a truly explosive temper, completely disregarding any consequences and striking at him from a distance. He felt a terrifying crisis Attack from behind.

Before he could think further, he was hit by a palm from behind. The inertia of the attack accelerated him forward, almost causing him to lose his grip on the two Old Ancestors...
