Chapter 298: Exposing the Hun Clan's Conspiracy!
Boom!
As the two powerful forces collided, the heavens and earth seemed to lose color, and the sun and moon appeared dim.
The terrifying energies ravaged the void, shattering the surrounding space like fragile glass. Countless fragments of space floated in the air, resembling a strange spatial rain.
The massive shockwave swept in all directions, toppling mountains and causing the ground to tremble violently, as if a magnitude-ten earthquake had struck.
Countless members of the Ling Clan were thrown into the air by the powerful force, landing heavily and in a disheveled state.
As the aftermath of the two palm strikes gradually dissipated, calm returned to the heavens and earth. However, the destruction caused by the clash was evident.
Within a radius of several dozen miles, not a blade of grass was left, mountains were shattered, and the landscape was devastated.
Ling Yuan stood dumbfounded, staring at the scene in shock and fear.
"Who could have possibly blocked the attack of Clan Leader Gu Yuan?"
Her petite body trembled involuntarily, her voice filled with disbelief. Indeed, across the entire continent, there were very few capable of withstanding an attack from him. As the leader of the Ling Clan, she had a keen sensitivity to the aura of powerful individuals.
She could clearly sense that within the spatial rift, there was a terrifying and chilling aura- one that was no less formidable than Gu Yuan's!
"Could it be..." She murmured softly to herself.
The other clan elders were equally astonished, whispering among themselves. They had never imagined that someone could stand toe-to-toe with Gu Yuan on the Dou Qi continent.
However, unlike their shock, a look of ecstasy appeared on Hun Huzi's sinister face.
"Clan Leader, you've finally arrived!"
His cunning eyes gleamed with excitement as he shouted loudly.
Hearing this, the colossal body of Nihility Devouring Flame trembled slightly, finally releasing a sigh of relief.
"Hun Tiandi, you've made it just in time. Any later, and I might not have made it out alive."
His deep, abyss-like eyes flashed with a hint of relief, his raspy voice tinged with a sense of being unburdened.
"Hun Tiandi?"
Aside from Gu Yuan and Gu Fei, everyone present was stunned by the name. On the current Dou Qi continent, this name carried no less weight than Gu Yuan's.
He was the current leader of the Hun Clan, one of the Five Supreme Powers of the Dou Qi continent from a millennium ago!
(TL/n: I haven't found any mention of five supreme powers in the wiki. Anyone who read the OG know about this?)
He was just one step away from achieving the Dou God level...
Could it be that today, two of the strongest would clash here?
As everyone watched in awe, a figure slowly emerged from the spatial rift. The newcomer was tall and imposing, dressed in a long black robe that billowed without wind, his body surrounded by an eerie black mist. His handsome face held a hint of malevolence, and his deep, abyss-like eyes gleamed with a chilling light.
With his appearance, the entire world seemed to pause. His terrifying aura enveloped the entire battlefield, causing even the air to feel heavy and stifling.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
"I must admit, I'm surprised you detected this so quickly."
Hun Tiandi's piercing gaze landed directly on Gu Yuan as a playful smile curled on his lips. "Surprised, are you? What's more surprising is how well you managed to hide..."
Gu Yuan's expression remained unchanged, but a hint of mockery flickered in his dignified eyes.
Hearing this, Hun Tiandi's brows furrowed slightly.
"Years ago, when the last leader of the Ancient Tunling Clan was slain by us, I never imagined that the Nihility Devouring Flame would gain his abilities after devouring him."
His voice was calm yet carried immense pressure.
"No wonder, throughout the years, so many ancient clans have withered while only your clan has thrived."
As he exposed their hidden secrets, Hun Tiandi's expression grew increasingly grim.
A flash of astonishment crossed his deep eyes, clearly not expecting Gu Yuan to unravel their deeply buried secrets so easily.
The Hun Clan had thought their plans were flawless, but before they could even begin, he had already uncovered everything.
After this revelation, the other ancient clans would surely be on guard, making it nearly impossible to find such an opportunity again!
As the two supreme beings faced off, a touching scene was playing out on the other side of the battlefield.
"Aunt!"
Ling Xi's delicate figure darted like a white lightning bolt to the side of her aunt and uncle, tears welling up in her clear eyes, her voice full of worry and longing.
"Xi'er!"
Ling Lu's eyes filled with joyful tears as she immediately opened her arms, pulling her tightly
into her embrace.
"You've grown up!"
Her voice was full of affection.
"Xi'er, this time, your uncle and I thought we wouldn't see you again."
Ling Qingshan stood beside them, gently patting their shoulder as he watched the reunion
with a warm smile.
"Aunt, Uncle, it's all thanks to Master that we arrived in time."
"A few days ago, Xian Yue and Wushuang mentioned to him that I was feeling homesick. He then decided to bring me back for a visit."
"Who would have thought that we'd run into something like this? When Master saw things were going wrong, he immediately asked the Gu Clan leader to help."
Ling Xi wiped away her tears and softly explained.
"Indeed, we must thank Young Master Gu Fei and his family for their assistance. If not for them, our clan might not have survived today..."
Ling Lu sighed with deep gratitude.
Her voice trailed off, and a flash of fear flickered in her eyes.
Yes, without his timely arrival, they might truly have perished today...
At that moment, an angry shout echoed from the sky.
"Hun Tiandi, your clan's treachery will not go unpunished! I will make sure the world
knows!"
Ling Yuan's petite figure hovered in the air, her beautiful eyes blazing with fury as she
pointed angrily at him.
"No need for such harsh words. This was nothing more than a little joke."
He responded indifferently, his deep eyes glinting with amusement and a smirk tugging at his
lips.
Though he downplayed it as a joke, the truth behind his words was undeniable:
In this world, the strong always reigned supreme!
In the face of a powerhouse like Hun Tiandi, a weak clan like the Ling Clan was nothing more
than a pawn to be toyed with.
"A joke? My clan was nearly wiped out, and you call it a joke?" She trembled with rage.
"Countless members of my clan have perished, blood feuds run deep!"
"Hun Tiandi! For your actions today, my clan will never let this go!"
Her voice dripped with vengeance and hatred.
"Heh, that will depend on whether your clan has the strength to do so."
His cold smile deepened as he glanced at her furious face.
