I Can See Your Combat Power

Chapter 681: Chapter 677: Final Battle (35)

Hua Mantian, along with several other members of the Fierce Realm from the Hua Family, left without ever looking back at the valley. Everyone understood it wasn’t because he was afraid or harboring no hatred. Instead, he was afraid that his rage might propel him into a deadly battle if he even glanced at the valley, which could then endanger his family members who were struggling to escape.

Hua Mantian, who held his father’s skull, thought of the look in his older brother Hua Zhenxi’s eyes when he passed the skull to him. His heart was torn with pain.

“My brother can’t take it anymore. I’ll avenge our father. I’m leaving the Hua Family to you.”

Seeing his father Hua From’s skull, Hua Mantian knew that his brother Hua Zhenxi had fallen apart. Was he not aware of the vast power gap between him and the Martial Ancestor of the Mi Clan? He was simply courting death.

As the current patriarch who suggested bringing all the elite to Xiling to seize opportunities, the brother felt too guilty to face the surviving clansmen for his disastrous decision.

Therefore, he passed everything, including the remains of their father, to him and then bravely faced his death.

The sight of their father’s skull, looking into his entrusted gaze.

For the first time, Hua Mantian saw dominant elder brother begging with such a pitiful look. He who held his father’s skull was also ready to take over the Hua family, so he must bring back whatever strength he has left!

In contrast to Hua Zhenxi’s reckless actions, the head of the Song family was much more calm, perhaps because the one who died was only a clansman from the Fierce Realm.

Song Xian made no irrational moves but led the warriors of the Song family and shot towards the defense line of Lanshan City without looking back.

Just as Hua Mantian said, he didn’t believe that thousands from the Song family would be slaughtered within such a short time. He firmly believed that some clansmen would escape.

The departure of Hua and Song families took away the confidence and fighting spirit of the other clan leaders in the alliance.

After all, these people came here to fight for a better future for their clansmen. But if there’s no clansman left, then what is the damned point of fighting for the future!

The clan leaders in the alliance, who came together due to shared interests, began to fall apart over one or two small disagreements stirred by Mi Jin. The only thing keeping them from completely scattering was Tang Zhi’s expression, standing on the deck of the big ship.

Having seen Mi Jin’s tactics, they gained a clearer understanding of Tang Clan. Even Mi Clan, who was such a tough and powerful opponent itself, only dared to act against Tang Clan after joining forces with seven other influential families in Xiling. This made them fear the ferocity of Tang Clan even more so.

If their reason for retreating was that they could not help but provoke Mi Clan, all the more they would not dare to upset the Tang Clan.

Some clan heads started to regret precipitously jumping into the conflict between these two behemoths, seeing it as an unwise decision.

Seeing the unease among the various clan leaders in the distance, Mi Jin turned to Mi Chuyang and Mi Zongqiang, nodding with a slight gesture, “The clan leader understands.”

The two leaders of the celestial bird feather guards nodded to Mi Jin, turned around, mounted the green phoenix, took flight, and flew east with the feather guards. By the looks of their direction, they were not heading back to South Ridge Beast Valley at all.

So, what were they going to do?

To the east of Xiling was the downstream of Lingjiang!

Just along the river alone, there were six major cities (Clear Water County, Shen Ping City, Qutang City, Andong City, Boma City, and Jiejiang City), not to mention numerous smaller cities and departments spreading to the southwest.

The two captains who had just returned with heads to report the mission were setting off again. Where was their destination this time?

Clear Water County or Shen Ping City? The Sun family or the Ma family?

All the prominent families in the east of Xiling became restless. Of the three hundred Fierce Realm tribes, over sixty percent came from the east. At this moment, they were eager to return to their tribes to prepare for defense.

What interests or future? They don’t want them anymore. All they wanted was to ensure the safety of their clansmen!

There was chaos among the warriors in the sky. Some clan leaders, who could no longer bear the pressure, led their warriors away while gazing at the departing feather guards.

This set off a chain reaction. Once one person left, there would be others following suit. All the clans and departments that had travelled from the east to Xiling became restless, and a large number gradually left in dribs and drabs.

Standing on the deck, Tang Zhi watched Mi Jin’s performance with admiration in his eyes.

Of course, he knew that a large number of the celestial bird feather guards of the Mi Clan were pursuing the various branches of the Tang Clan. Only a few remaining could be dispatched to slaughter the various clans.

He was even more aware that whether it was Mi Chuyang or Mi Zongqiang, the two leading feather guards must have received instructions from Mi Jin to use such a maneuver at this time.

But this action created a state of unrest among more than three hundred Fierce Realm warriors. In reality, it was merely two feather guards of the Mi Clan raiding the bases of two minor clans, taking advantage of the absence of their elites.

Moreover, the real victims were only the two clans closest to Xiling. Although Mi Clan’s intelligence capabilities were strong, they were only able to cover the areas around Xiling. They were completely blind to the clans that came to help from hundreds of miles away.

But what Mi Clan demonstrated now made it seem as though they had thoroughly understood and mastered the details and territories of everyone. This was obviously a bluff, but it was extremely effective.

After all, no one would feel the pain if the knife didn’t cut them.

The Mi Clan was like a sharp blade hanging over every clan’s head, as if asking, “Guess if this blade will pierce your clansman’s eye.”

The scariest stage of a slap is when the hand is raised high.

By attacking two minor bases, Mi Jin managed to shake the morale of a whole alliance. Mi Jin’s performance of accomplishing a great result by exerting a small effort was as if he was creating art.

Especially when the two celestial bird feather guard captains led the two teams of feather guards who had just returned from their missions and left indifferently, it became the last straw that broke the camel’s back, shattering the mental defenses of some clan heads.

If you think about it carefully, even if two feather guards exhausted their strength, they wouldn’t pose a threat to so many clan territories in such a short time. At most, they could only breach three to five clans.

But everyone was afraid that theirs would be among those. Even if I tell you, the probability of you being targeted is tiny, as your territory is far away, having considered thorough protection is useless, because “what if” is a terrifying thing.

Everyone felt like those two feather guards were after them, so they had to scatter!

But Mi Jin wasn’t the only smart person in the world. Within the alliance, there were some Fierce Realm warriors who stood steadfast in the void and displayed undisguised contempt. They were even constantly persuading the anxious allies around them:

“Don’t fall into Mi Jin’s trap. Given the strength of those two celestial bird feather guards, they can only bully small tribes. If they dare to invade our territories, we would ensure they will never return!”

“Look at the two captains, they aren’t even of the Fierce Realm, they are just at the peak of shedding the mortal body. If they didn’t rely on the strong belligerence of the green phoenix, I don’t think they could have breached the territories of the Hua and Li families.”

“In my opinion, these two families deserve it. If they had been willing to station two Fierce Realm warriors, their territories would never have been breached by the feather guards and they wouldn’t have ended up in this situation. They brought this upon themselves.”
