Chapter 993: The First Family

by Zhou Yongliang, the director of the Medical Bureau, just received recently, and had been kept in his pocket.Xia Hailin took the certificate and glanced at it, then a sneer curled up at the corner...The most shocked was Ximen Fenglei. As the eldest elder of the family, he had enough pride and confidence.

From that strike, he realized the opponent was not only strong but possibly even stronger than him.

This is rather frightening, there are only a few Heaven's Staircase Great Perfection masters in the Imperial City. When did another old nun appear

"Come again!"

He couldn't quite believe what he was seeing. He channeled his power to the limit, a massive aura engulfing the entire hall. Then, with lightning speed, he unleashed two powerful palm strikes.

"Boom boom boom boom..."

In the blink of an eye, the two exchanged over a dozen strikes. In the end, Ximen Fenglei took seven steps back, while Qingye Shi Tai retreated six.

Ximen Fenglei was astonished. He was certain now, the opponent was a genuine Heaven Realm peak expert.

And he was highly skilled, definitely not a newcomer to this path. Compared to myself, he was evenly matched.

The people, coming back to their senses, were utterly shocked and began to whisper among themselves, expressing their astonishment.

“Who is this old nun She’s so powerful! She doesn't seem to be any less skilled than Elder Xi Men.”

It’s not just about not losing, you didn't see Elder Ximen retreated seven steps, he only retreated six steps.

"The Ximen family is finished, this time they've lost face big time. They can't do anything about it at all. It seems that being robbed of their bride is inevitable…"

At this moment, all eyes were focused on the host, Ximen Fengyun.

"Hahaha... Looks like you were prepared."

Ximen Fengyun was furious but laughed. He suddenly stood up from the VIP seat.

"Well then, it's time for the Xi Men family to show our strength. Today, I declare to all of Imperial City that from now on, the Xi Men family will be the number one family in Imperial City."

At this moment, his words were spoken with an air of power and confidence, showing no trace of dejection after being robbed of his bride.

Everyone present was taken aback. Where did Ximen Fengyun get his confidence from

Although the Xi Men family's strength was among the top five influential families before, it certainly didn't reach the level of the first family.

Sima Pingcuo, Murong Chengdu, and Dongfang Jianye all frowned slightly upon hearing this.

But those who are able to ascend to the throne are all shrewd and experienced individuals, naturally they wouldn't easily express their stance.

"Lao San, come out. It's time for you to show your skills."

With a roar from Ximen Fengyun, another surge of extremely powerful energy rose into the sky from behind him, also reaching the pinnacle of the Heavenly Rank.

Everyone turned to look, a black-clothed old man walked over slowly, it was the second elder of the Ximen family, Ximen Fengxue.

Ximen Fengyun was the second of three brothers in his generation, and he held the position of head of the family.

As the head elder of the family, Lao Da Ximen Feng Lei is a master at the peak of the Heavenly Rank.

Lao San had already reached the late stage of the Heavenly Rank many years ago, but he didn't expect to cross the threshold of Heavenly Rank Perfection today.

My third brother broke through to the peak of the Heavenly Realm ten days ago and has been consolidating his cultivation recently.

"As you can see, this is the confidence of our Xi Men family, this is the power of the first family in the capital."

"If you dare to come to our Xi Men family to steal a bride, there's only one way out: death."

The entire venue fell silent, with only the unrestrained laughter of Ximen Fengyun echoing through it.

It is extremely rare for a martial artist to reach the Heavenly Rank Grandmaster level. Even among the five prominent families of the Imperial City, who have stood side by side for so many years, only one member from each family has achieved this pinnacle.

This is where their confidence lies, and it's also the balance of power among various factions. It's like nuclear weapons in real society; both a display of strength and a deterrent.

It is precisely because of this that the five great aristocratic families in the Imperial Capital have been at peace for decades. However, this situation was broken today when the Ximen family unexpectedly produced two Heavenly Rank Grandmasters.

At that moment, Sima Piao, Murong Chengdu, and Dongfang Jianye's expressions all turned gloomy.

The Xi Men family's surge in power is definitely not good news for the other families.

Ximen Fengyun became more and more conceited, pointing at Ye Bufan: "Boy, do you think that finding a Heavenly Rank Grandmaster to rely on allows you to run wild in our Ximen family You are far behind."

"Lao San, kill him for me."

With two Heaven Realm Grand Completion experts, the Ximen family already had enough confidence and didn't care at all whether Ye Bufan was the grandson of the Changsun family.

The other party is here to elope. Even if the Xuanyuan Pavilion investigates, he has enough reason to respond.

Ximen Fengxue broke through to the supreme realm of Tianjie, and she was also full of ambition and arrogance.

A long howl escaped his mouth, and with a leap, he soared into the air. In a flash, he drew his long sword from its sheath behind him, and the fierce sword energy instantly enveloped Ye Bufan.

At that moment, everyone present held their breath for Ye Bufan, wiping a cold sweat from their foreheads. It seemed the Ximen family had made up their minds and was going all out to eliminate him at any cost.

Dongfang HuiZhong was even more nervous than before, but it was too late to help. Ximen Fengxue's speed was simply too fast.

Moreover, even with her cultivation at the middle stage of the Heavenly Rank, she wouldn't be able to help much if she were there. Just as everyone was on edge, a brighter sword glow suddenly erupted from behind Ye Bufan.

"Ximen Fengxue, you dare! You even dare to touch my grandson."

As soon as the words left his mouth, two flashes of sharp sword light collided.

After a series of crisp sounds, they parted ways again. Ximen Fengxue and another figure reappeared before everyone, it was none other than Changsun Wugong, the great elder of the Changsun family.

He glanced at Xi Men Feng Xue opposite him, his eyes filled with disdain.

"You are nothing but a defeated subordinate. Even if you reach the peak of the Heavenly Realm, you would still be no match for me."

People looked at Ximen Fengxue, who had just been arrogant, and were astonished.

One could plainly see that the old man's already sparse hair had been completely shaved off, leaving him bald. The outcome of their fight was immediately apparent; one party clearly had the upper hand.

Ximen's old face was flushed red at this moment, wishing he could find a crack in the ground to hide in.

But there's no way around it, skill is not as good as others. Changsun Wugong was originally a martial arts fanatic. He had stepped into the Great Accomplishment of Heaven Realm for many years, with profound skills. It was not something he, who had just entered the door, could compare to.

And this time, he also got the complete version of Zhanlong Jiujian from Ye Bufan, which was far beyond his imagination.

Back then, he lost to the opponent many times. Although he has now stepped into the threshold of the Great Perfection level, the result is still the same.

The atmosphere on the field fell into awkward silence once more. The West Gate family, who had held an absolute advantage moments ago, were now back in a disadvantageous position.

While there are two Heaven Realm Grand Perfection cultivators here, the other side is not inferior at all.

Ximen Fengyun's smug expression vanished from his face, replaced by a look of heavy gloom.

I didn't expect that the Changsun family would actually send out Changsun Wugong. Now things have become a bit troublesome.

He was thinking about whether to have Xi Men Feng Xue and Xi Men Feng Lei entrap the two Heavenly Tribulation Perfection stage cultivators present, then let the others make a quick move, killing Ye Bufan with lightning speed.

Just as he was hesitating, Ye Bufan reached out and took out a golden token, which was the head of the Dongfang family.

He weighed the token in his hand, then asked with a smirk: "Master Dongfang, I wonder if this token can summon your family's Elder Dongfang"

As soon as he said that, everyone realized the depth of his meaning.

The current situation is a stalemate, but if we add in the Oriental family's patriarch, Dong Fang Qing Tian, then the balance will be broken instantly.

Ye Bufan has a three-on-two advantage, holding the upper hand.

At this moment, all eyes were on Eastern Construction.n the mundane world, any one of these masters they pull out is hundreds of times stronger than them. How can this be explainedEverything is about strength. Now that the other side's strength surpasses...
