Chapter 1203 1203: The Yue Family

Ten Thousand Swords City, a large city where millions of cultivators gather.

Tall buildings stand majestically, and among them are many ancient-style palace buildings, which are mostly residences of the large families of cultivators.

In the sky above the skyscrapers of Ten Thousand Swords City, thousands of cultivators can be seen flying, either carrying swords or riding flying beasts.

Throughout the city sky, cultivators can be seen coming and going, leaving trails of airwaves in their wake.

Surrounding Ten Thousand Swords City is a mountain range with majestic peaks, and on those peaks where the spiritual or holy energy is dense, grand palatial structures can be seen, layered upon each other, extremely magnificent.

Among the mountains, on the tallest and grandest peak, where the holy energy gathers into mist, lightly enveloping the mountain top, golden palaces stand tall within the mist. The golden light is as dazzling as the sun and moon and exudes a royal aura, filling the heaven and earth.

These golden palaces are the residences of the Wan family, the City Lord of Ten Thousand Swords City.

As one of the ten great families of Ten Thousand Swords City, the influential Yue family also has palace buildings on one of these mountain peaks.

However, compared to the grandeur of the City Lord Wan family's golden palaces, the Yue family's palaces have red walls and green tiles, but still stand tall and magnificent.

In one of the magnificent halls within the Yue family's palace complex, several elders are seated.

At the head of the hall, an elder sits on a large gilt chair.

The elder has white hair and a face full of wrinkles, yet his eyes are bright as the sun and moon. His body is dressed in a white Tang suit, embroidered with golden cranes.

The whole person looks very simple, plainly dressed, but exudes a grand aura as deep as the sea.

This elder is the Patriarch of the Yue family, Yue Yunsheng.

On either side of the hall, two elders are seated on chairs.

One of the elders is Master Yueyun, who suffered at the hands of Lin Fei.

The other three elders are Second Master Yue Yunquan, Fourth Master Yue Yunzhong, and Fifth Master Yue Yuntian.

The five elders of the Yue family gathered in the hall, indicating a significant matter within the Yue family.

The five elders gathered to discuss how to deal with Lin Fei.

As well as how to rescue Yue Peng from Lin Fei.

Upon returning to the Yue family, Master Yueyun told Patriarch Yue Yunsheng and his other brothers about Lin Fei's frightening power and his failure to rescue Yue Peng.

"For so many years, no one in Ten Thousand Swords City dared to capture or harm anyone from the Yue family. This Lin Fei is truly audacious!" Fourth Master Yue Yunzhong, with gray hair and an angry expression, slapped his right palm on the table beside him.

With a cracking sound, a handprint sank deep into the thick tabletop.

When Yue Yunzhong lifted his palm, powder flew, followed by a cracking sound, and the entire table collapsed into pieces, turning into wood chips scattered on the ground.

The power of Yue Yunzhong's slap was truly astonishing.

"Fourth Brother, calm down! I understand your concern for Peng'Er. Rest assured, I will rescue Peng'Er unharmed." At this moment, Yue Yunsheng, seated at the head with an aura of authority, spoke to Yue Yunzhong.

Yue Yunzhong frowned and said to Yue Yunsheng, "But, Big Brother, how can I not worry when Peng'Er is in Lin Fei's hands?"

"Fourth Brother, although Peng'Er is in Lin Fei's hands, Lin Fei's friend is also in our Yue family's hands. I believe he won't dare to harm Peng'Er if he doesn't want his friend to die." Master Yueyun quickly comforted his brother.

"Yes, Fourth Brother, Master Yun is right. Peng'Er will be fine. My only concern now is whether True Essence Sect will be in trouble?" Patriarch Yue Yunsheng said, his gaze involuntarily turning toward the distance beyond the grand hall doors.

At that moment, footsteps were heard, and a black-clad cultivator with a golden sword on his back swiftly entered the hall. He kneeled on one knee before Patriarch Yue Yunsheng and said, "Li Mo, the Yue family's gold medal guard, greets the Patriarch and the elders. I have something to report."

The gold medal guard is the highest rank and most powerful elite guard in a large cultivator family, mainly tasked with protecting the family and carrying out various dangerous and arduous tasks.

Yue Yunsheng looked at the kneeling gold medal guard and raised his hand, saying, "Rise and speak!"

"Yes, Patriarch." Li Mo, the gold medal guard, answered and stood up from the ground.

"Go ahead, what do you need to report?" Patriarch Yue Yunsheng asked the gold medal guard.

Guard Li Mo clasped his fists and said, "Patriarch, today in the city below the mountain, I suddenly heard a message spreading in the city."

"What message?" Second Master Yue Yunquan, curious, couldn't help but ask.

Guard Li Mo said, "The message spreading in the city is that a person named Lin Fei will launch an attack on our Yue family in two days and has vowed to bring disaster upon our family!"

"What, disaster upon our family?" Second Master Yue Yunquan, Third Master Yueyun, Fourth Master Yue Yunzhong, and Fifth Master Yue Yuntian all stood up in anger, their bodies exuding a violent aura.

Only Yue Yunsheng, sitting in the golden chair at the head, remained motionless, his expression calm as usual, only his brow slightly furrowed, his gaze somewhat deep.

"Subordinate... heard the message, and indeed, it said so." Guard Li Mo, seeing the intimidating presence and anger of the four elders, couldn't help but feel some apprehension.

"Li Mo, you may withdraw for now. Continue to gather information to find out who is spreading this message? Also, quickly contact Jin Zongfan of True Essence Sect and ask him to come to the Yue family immediately." Yue Yunsheng instructed guard Li Mo unhurriedly.

"Yes, Patriarch." Guard Li Mo answered and was about to withdraw.

"Patriarch, there's no need to contact him, I have already arrived." At this moment, a voice came from the grand hall door.

Then, an elder in a golden crown and azure robe walked in from the door. This elder was none other than the Sect Leader of True Essence Sect, Jin Zongfan.

Jin Zongfan entered the hall and clasped his fists, bowing deeply to Yue Yunsheng in the golden chair: "Jin Zongfan, Sect Leader of True Essence Sect, greets the Patriarch."

Then Jin Zongfan paid his respects to Yue Yunquan, Master Yueyun, Yue Yunzhong, and Yue Yuntian: "Greetings to Second Master, Third Master, Fourth Master, and Fifth Master."

Yue Yunsheng waved his hand to the guard Li Mo, who understood and left the hall.

"Jin Zongfan, has Lin Fei invaded True Essence Sect?" Yue Yunsheng asked Jin Zongfan with sharp eyes.

Jin Zongfan's face immediately showed a look of grief and anger, and he said, "Patriarch, I was just about to inform you. True Essence Sect has already fallen, and apart from me and a dozen disciples who escaped, the four Grand Elders and all hall masters were all destroyed by Lin Fei. The remaining disciples of True Essence Sect were also captured by Lin Fei."

"Moreover, Lin Fei wants me to deliver a message to the Patriarch. He says he will come to destroy the Yue family in two days."

A trace of anger flickered in Yue Yunsheng's eyes as he looked at Jin Zongfan. "In other words, he allowed you to escape so you could bring me this message?"

Jin Zongfan replied with a face full of dejection, "Indeed, Patriarch."
