Family Rise by Daily Intelligence

Chapter 78: Chapter 78: Silver-winged Blood Eagle, Fierce Battle

Before Qiuo Mingqi finished speaking,

the Grand Elder’s face already turned very ugly.

He glared at Qiuo Mingqi and said coldly:

”The Zhang and Qiuo Families have been allies for a hundred years.

Thirty years ago, our Qiuo Family was nearly wiped out by the Southern Barbarians, leaving only one Late-Stage Qi Cultivator with a group of Low-Tier Qi Cultivation Disciples.

If it hadn’t been for the Zhang Family sending a Qi Cultivation Ninth Layer clansman to defend our Clan Mountain,

we would’ve been completely devoured by the Yu Family with nothing left.

Now that the Zhang Family is declining, it’s the perfect time for us to repay our debt; how can you say such treacherous words?

Next time,

I’ll exercise my authority as the Grand Elder and banish you to Repentance Cliff to clear your mind.”

Mention of Repentance Cliff.

Made Qiuo Mingqi shudder, quickly shutting his mouth without saying another word.

When four from the Qiuo Family reached the foot of Ant Hill, Elder Zhang came down from afar to greet them:

”Brother Qiuo, it’s been a long time, how have you been?”

The Zhang and Qiuo Families conversed at the foot of the mountain for quite some time.

Yet, they showed no intention of going up the mountain.

With only a few steps needed to enter within the array’s range, Yu Qingru on the flying ship was sweating from anxiety, but Fu Changsheng calmly said:

”No rush.”

”There’s a natural cave mid-mountain at Ant Hill. Once they enter, we’ll activate the array. This way, even if they react in time, they won’t escape the mountain.”

Yu Qingru nodded slightly.

After a while.

The people of both the Zhang and Qiuo Families finally began to proceed up the mountain.

Once they entered the cave halfway up and sealed the entrance, Fu Changsheng calmly said:

”Miss Qingru, now’s the time!”

With those words.

Yu Qingru and her brother simultaneously formed techniques with their hands, launching one after another at the suspended Central Array Plate, causing it to tremble violently with a buzzing sound.

Immediately after.

The surroundings of Ant Hill lit up with pillar-like yellow rays of light soaring into the sky.

Upon seeing this scene, Zhang Huanrui and Qiuo Mingqi, who were guarding the cave’s entrance, both instinctively stepped back, thinking it was an ambush from the other side, but upon seeing the panic flash on each other’s faces, they realized there were others in Ant Hill:

”Enemy attack!”

The two simultaneously let out a long whistle.

Lightly tapping the ground with their toes.

They rushed down the mountain at their fastest speed.

Boom!

Boom!!

Just a step away from escaping Ant Hill, they felt as if they’d hit an invisible wall, being knocked back directly.

At the same time.

On Ant Hill,

a yellow light shield fell with a thunderous roar over them.

The Grand Elder of the Qiuo Family, emerging from the cave, seeing the overwhelming yellow sand, his pupils constricted:

”Not good”

”It’s the Yu Family’s Yellow Sand Trapping Array!”

Before he finished speaking.

The usual Ant Hill trembled violently, and as Zhang and Qiuo Families’ six people’s visions flickered, they suddenly found themselves standing alone in an open wilderness.

”Take action!”

Fu Changsheng immediately leapt down from the flying ship.

According to the pre-battle strategy.

Granny Yu was responsible for engaging the Grand Elder of the Qiuo Family.

Molan, with her Tier One Peak Puppet, was to quickly resolve the four including Zhang Huanrui and Qiuo Mingqi.

As for Fu Changsheng, he was to first hold off Elder Zhang.

Elder Zhang, standing in the wilderness, immediately waved his Divine Staff, and with the sound of harsh cawing, several Three-legged Fire Crows materialized.

The Three-legged Fire Crows did not launch an attack.

Instead, they began rapidly converging.

Clearly,

they intended to transform into a giant quasi-second-tier Three-legged Fire Crow.

Right from the start, using their greatest killing move.

Elder Zhang was clearly a wise man, understanding the longer he remained in the array, the worse his situation would be.

”This is bad!”

Seeing this, Fu Changsheng suddenly clasped his hands in technique.

Accompanied by incantation sounds.

”Roar!”

A Fire Dragon materialized, its tail whipping through the air towards the converging Three-legged Fire Crows with unmatched speed.

With a bang!

The Three-legged Fire Crows were forced apart.

Meanwhile.

Fu Changsheng pointed at the floating Flying Sword before him, it spun with a whirl, a Sword Qi-condensed Eight Trigrams Light Ring emerging instantly, accompanying his sword point’s gesture:

”Ting, ting, ting!”

Sword Qi whizzed forth.

Shooting in all directions at Elder Zhang.

Upon seeing the familiar scene, a strong look of resentment flashed in Elder Zhang’s eyes:

”Fu Changsheng!”

Old and new grudges surged in his mind.

Elder Zhang’s eyes were resolute, he pressed his brow, and immediately strands of blood entered the Divine Staff, quickly sucking him dry to skin and bones, while golden light surged from the staff.

Following which,

a roar seemingly from ancient times,

erupted from his Divine Staff.

A Silver-winged Blood Eagle materialized.

The moment it appeared, the surrounding yellow sands directly disintegrated, revealing Ant Hill’s original appearance.

Elder Zhang’s eyes, sharp like lightning, focused on Fu Changsheng standing outside the array light curtain, and with a wave of his Divine Staff, the Silver-winged Blood Eagle flapped its wings instantly.

Golden flames roared out.

Falling upon the array light curtain.

”Zzzzz”

The light curtain trembled violently.

On the brink of instability and shattering.

Fu Changsheng’s heart trembled at this sight, understanding that the Silver-winged Blood Eagle’s pressure had reached Tier Two, far beyond what his current strength could withstand.

He promptly slapped his storage bag.

A pair of Heaven-Shocking Hammers roared towards the Silver-winged Blood Eagle.

The Silver-winged Blood Eagle, with a dismissive look, swiped its claws, ready to tear the hammers apart.

But Fu Changsheng coldly snorted:

”Explode!”

With a rumble.

The Heaven-Shocking Hammers exploded, creating a terrifying force that momentarily halted the Silver-winged Blood Eagle’s advance.

In the critical moment.

A sound of space being torn came from above.

Two black chains shot like lightning from the southwest, rapidly entangling Elder Zhang.

It was the crucial moment.

Having slain three, Fu Molan noticed the unfavorable situation and swiftly intervened.

At this time, activating the Power Source Stone, the puppet’s massive body resembled an ancient War God descending, thundering towards Elder Zhang.

Each step landing.

Made the whole Ant Hill shake as if in an earthquake.

Boulders rolled and fell.

Capture the leader first.

Fu Molan didn’t target the Silver-winged Blood Eagle but attacked Elder Zhang. A trace of unwillingness flashed in Elder Zhang’s eyes, and in haste, he recalled the Silver-winged Blood Eagle to engage the puppet.

Fu Changsheng glanced at the other battlefield.

Despite the array’s assistance.

Yet, Qiuo Family’s Grand Elder, being an experienced Peak Qi Cultivator, displayed endless tactics, and though Granny Yu had the upper hand with the array, slaying her opponent quickly seemed impossible.

Meanwhile, the puppet driven by Molan was weaker than the Silver-winged Blood Eagle conjured by Elder Zhang, and was now retreating.

Yu Qingru and her brother were unable to spare time, continuously replenishing shattered Array Flags and Array Plates to maintain the array’s operation.

”It’s no good. If this continues, the Yellow Sand Trapping Array will soon collapse!”

Once the Zhang and Qiuo Families escape.

The situation will reverse.

Then, our families will become lambs to the slaughter:

”We must quickly find another way.”
