Urban God of War: The Live-in Son-in-law-Chapter 306: Great Powers Emerge One After Another
On the edge of the Fallen Dragon Valley, the grand battle between the Underworld and the Disciples of Mount Shu was still raging. Four Divine Path Experts manipulated their Divine Path Objects with such force that heaven and earth seemed to tear apart.
Initially, everyone exercised restraint, but as the fight progressed, anger flared, and they resorted to direct and fierce clashes with their Divine Path Objects.
Streams of light dazzled, shimmering and swirling. Shockwaves like towering waves swept out, nearly flattening the nearby hillock.
An elder from Mount Shu faced off against a member from the Tang Family Mountain of the Tang Sect. They clashed with Ox Head and Horse Face from the Underworld. All four were God Gathering Realm experts of the Divine Path with comparable power. Despite the deadlock where neither side could gain the upper hand, no one could defeat the other.
However, the ordinary disciples from Mount Shu and the Underworld were fighting with a red-eyed ferocity, especially Ye Feng, transformed as Qin Xiao, along with Yue Dengchuan. Having just killed two disciples from Mount Shu, they were naturally the target of focused hostility.
Yue Dengchuan, after all, was a Middle Rank Martial King with remarkable combat power. Facing an opponent from Mount Shu of the same rank, he did not give an inch. On the other hand, the situation for Ye Feng seemed rather dire.
Two Martial Kings, including one Middle Rank Martial King, attacked from both sides with a deadly determination, forcing Ye Feng into a relentless retreat. His situation looked perilous and desperate, as if he could fall any moment under their coordinated assault.
"Qin Chuan, hold on! You must persevere! Once I’ve dealt with this damned fool, I’ll come and help you. You have to hang in there!" Yue Dengchuan shouted while striking his opponents, not forgetting to encourage his ally.
Unexpectedly, this seemingly arrogant and overbearing man also valued friendship and loyalty. However, it was unfortunate that Qin Xiao was no longer the Qin Xiao of before.
"Senior Brother Yue, don’t worry about me. I think I’m done for. You must survive!" cried out Ye Feng, feigning desperation. Since the other showed such loyalty, he felt obliged to display some in return.
With a loud thump, the Middle Rank Martial King struck out with a palm, smacking Ye Feng away like a kite with a broken string.
"A mere Primary Martial King daring to kill disciples from Mount Shu, truly courting death. Kill!" The two Martial Kings from Mount Shu, their auras ferocious and swords flickering, wove a dense and inescapable Sword Net and launched it toward Ye Feng.

Of course, Ye Feng’s disadvantage was all an act. Otherwise, two mere Intermediate Martial Kings could be crushed into pulp with a flick of his hand.
Even facing the four God Gathering Realm Divine Path Experts, such as Ox Head and Horse Face, Ye Feng was not afraid. Even if he couldn’t beat them, escaping would be no issue at all. However, he couldn’t flee yet as he had important business to attend to.
"Given the current situation, I must investigate the true depths of the Fallen Dragon Valley. The Ghost Qi emanates from there. To stop the spread of the Ghost Qi and Miasma, I must start at the source!" Ye Feng pondered, quickly devising a plan. With everyone deeply engaged in battle, no one took notice of him, a seemingly insignificant figure.
If he played his cards right, he could make his escape smoothly.
Slash! Slice!
The terrifying Sword Net surged towards him, and Ye Feng, pretending effort, slapped his palm towards it to disperse the net.
"A mere Primary Martial King, daring to resist? Overestimating one’s abilities!" sneered the two opposing Martial Kings from Mount Shu. Discover more content at novelbuddy
With a thunderous bang, Ye Feng was directly hit by the Sword Net. His outstretched right arm was lacerated, and cuts covered his body. The wounds were ghastly, and he looked exceedingly pitiful.
Gurgling...
Ye Feng spat out a mouthful of fresh blood. Under the onslaught of the Sword Net, he staggered back, naturally finding himself by the cliff’s edge halfway up the mountain.
The impact of the Sword Net was too strong for him to withstand, and he fell, tumbling down toward the depths of the Fallen Dragon Valley.
"Ah... revenge, Senior Brother Yue... please, you must avenge me!" From the bottom of the valley, the hysterical roar of Qin Xiao could be heard as he faced death.
"Ahhhh! Junior Brother Qin, definitely... your Senior Brother will avenge you. Rest in peace!" Yue Dengchuan bellowed with rage, yet his offensive movements showed little change. While he maintained an aggressive stance, his actions remained chiefly defensive.
It was clear to any discerning observer that his loud claims for revenge were just words. On Yue Dengchuan’s face, there wasn’t even a trace of sorrow, as if Qin Xiao’s death meant nothing to him, as if it didn’t concern him at all.
The two Martial Kings of Mount Shu arrived at the edge of the cliff and looked down, spitting out a mouthful of saliva, and coldly huffed, "Idiots who don’t know whether they are alive or dead, daring to kill a fellow disciple of Mount Shu, let’s see if you won’t die now!"
Regarding Qin Xiao’s severe fall, not to mention those common disciples of Mount Shu, even those four God Gathering Realm Divine Path Experts didn’t harbor the slightest doubt, and especially not the Divine Path Experts of the Nine Great Sects guarding the various checkpoints. After all, in their eyes, this was merely a very common minor sect conflict.
After all, it was not uncommon for there to be conflicts between the Nine Great Sects, where even a trivial cause, such as someone from the Underworld looking twice at a female disciple of Mount Shu, could lead to a bloody fight, let alone the current situation of killing the Martial King disciple of the opposite sect.
The saying goes, "Chivalry breaks the law with martial arts," which is roughly the meaning, and this is also why three thousand years ago, the Emperor on Xuanyuan Land had abolished the Hundred Schools.
Of course, the reason the Emperor did this three thousand years ago, the abolition and unilateral rule were only one aspect, there was a larger reason hidden, which ordinary people were unaware of.
The skirmishing between both sides did not stop because of Ye Feng’s severe fall, but instead became even more fierce, and before long, another common disciple fell to the ground lifeless.
And those four Divine Path Experts had also developed a bloodlust, even appearing to be ready to burn their Divine Path Objects for a final deadly showdown.
Just then, an elderly man dressed in a black long robe and a burly man carrying a Great Sword swept across the sky to arrive, and in the blink of an eye, they hovered in the air above.
"Presumptuous, who gave you the nerve to fight privately at this critical moment? Stop at once!"
The one who spoke was the elderly man in the black robe, his dark long robe rustling in the wind. If one looked carefully, they could discover that the back of this black robe, with its gold trim, bore the embroidery of an Underworld Python.
The Underworld Python opened its fangs and claws, extremely ferocious and intimidating. An intense aura unintentionally emanated from him, and as he spoke with a shout, it was like thunder exploding in the valley, causing both groups below to involuntarily stop their actions.
Particularly the four God Gathering Realm Experts, the sound exploded in their ears like rolling Golden Thunder, making their organs quake incessantly, feeling extremely uncomfortable.
"It’s the Fifth Mansion Lord! The Fifth Mansion Lord’s arrival is timely, your lordship must preside over justice for us!" the disciples of the Underworld exclaimed upon seeing the black-robed Underworld Python Elder hovering in mid-air, immediately kneeling on the ground, even Ox Head and Horse Face showed respect by bending one knee to the ground.
It turned out that this black-robed Underworld Python Elder was the Fifth Mansion Lord of the current Nine Great Sects of the Underworld, whose strength was far above the God Gathering Realm. It was said he had even reached Minor Accomplishment in Divine Ability, a Divine Ability Realm Great Power Expert.
On the other side, the disciples of Mount Shu, upon seeing the man carrying the burly Great Sword in the sky, also kneeled down and called out, "It’s the Eighth Sword Master! The people of the Underworld have killed two of our Martial Kings, please, Eighth Sword Master, preside over justice for us!"
And this burly man shouldering the black iron Great Sword was none other than the Eighth Sword Master of Mount Shu, ranked eighth, whose realm was unfathomably deep, and his strength as formidable as the Underworld’s Fifth Mansion Lord beside him.
"Truly a bunch of useless trash, small disturbances are typically overlooked, but what time is it now that you dare to act so recklessly? If you ruin the grand scheme of the Nine Great Sects that has been planned for a thousand years, not just me, even the Great Mansion Lord cannot protect you!"
"What are you staring at? Ox Head and Horse Face, return to your own posts at once, and the rest of the common disciples also do as you were told and carry those walking corpses outside in here!" the Underworld Fifth Mansion Lord shouted angrily.
At this moment, the Eight Sword Master of Mount Shu also said, "Let this matter end here. Disciples of Mount Shu should disperse as well, quickly return to your positions. The grand plan takes precedence. Otherwise, if there are any slip-ups, even if the Great Sword Master does not take action, I will not spare you!"
The disciples of Mount Shu and the Underworld, upon hearing this, dared not speak further and turned to leave. However, from their angry gazes, it was clear that this matter was far from over, and there was bound to be another fight in the future.
The two Great Power Experts in mid-air shook their heads, with the Underworld Fifth Mansion Lord frowning and saying, "It’s said that the Utility Pavilion has already set many capable people in motion, not only has Zhao Gongming returned, but even one of those two Undying ones has come."
The Eight Sword Master of Mount Shu coldly huffed, "So what? For a thousand years, we, the Nine Great Sects, have plotted this grand scheme. Even if another one of those Undying ones from the Utility Pavilion comes, they won’t be able to ruin our plan!"
"True, but we cannot afford to be negligent. It’s said that the Utility Pavilion is getting impatient and ready to act. To be on the safe side, we should hurry over as well," the Underworld Fifth Mansion Lord asserted.
With that, both individuals stepped on the tree leaves on the branches beneath their feet, rising into the air like Spirit Cranes, and rapidly flew off toward the east.
