Chapter 1550: Fight
If even the leader of the Di Clan had shown himself, how could the other Gods of the clan not show themselves as well? A total of seven Gods appeared. One of them was almost at Purple Lightning Marquis's level, and he, in particular, looked ancient. Clearly, he was an old monster of the Di Clan.
Xiang Shaoyun's original plan was to sneak into the city and save Yu Caidie before doing anything else. However, both his father and Purple Lightning Marquis were in favor of directly attacking the Di Clan. The two wanted to use this as an opportunity to see just how powerful the Di Clan was.
In any case, if they failed after sneaking into the city, they might find themselves trapped instead, which would be even more unfavorable for them. It would be better for them to confront the Di Clan directly.
"Dogs from the Di Clan, release my daughter-in-law, or today is the day the Di Clan ceases to exist," said Xiang Yangzhan with his spear in hand.
"Where did this mad dog come from? You dare insult the Di Clan? Die!" said a Di Clan God as he swung his saber at Xiang Yangzhan.
The sky was split apart as the saber instantly arrived before Xiang Yangzhan.
With a derisive snort, Xiang Yangzhan said, "You're so cocky with just this much strength? Scram!"
He then swept his spear out, shattering the energy saber.
The Di Clan God was about to charge forth but was stopped by the Di Monarch with a gesture. The monarch asked, "Who are you? Even if you have a grudge against us, at least let us know why you're here."
Purple Lightning Marquis could see that the Di Monarch was an expert. He stepped forth and said, "We are from the Ziling Sect. Your Di Clan has repeatedly come after us, and you have even kidnapped the wife of our sect master. Give us an explanation, or today will be the day we destroy the Di Clan."
His aura erupted, filling the world with a purple radiance that even felt much stronger than Xiang Yangzhan's aura.
Even Xiang Yangzhan looked astonished as he exclaimed inwardly, Th-this person is actually so strong?
Xiang Yangzhan had only recently been reunited with Xiang Shaoyun. Thus, Xiang Shaoyun had yet to get the chance to tell his father about his secrets and the origin of Purple Lightning Marquis, Scarlet Flame Monarch, and the others. In fact, he wasn't even aware that Purple Lightning Marquis was actually also the guardian of the Xiang Clan.
When the Di Monarch sensed Purple Lightning Marquis's strength, traces of fear appeared on his face. His clone was most definitely not Purple Lightning Marquis's match. Although the Di Clan had quite a decent number of Gods, none of them could stop Purple Lightning Marquis either.
"Did any of us capture anyone from the Ziling Sect?" asked the Di Monarch.
Someone from the Di Clan stepped out and said, "No, we didn't."
"Bullshit! You first sent an old eunuch to assassinate me before sending someone to kidnap Caidie. There is no mistaking that. Do not deny what you have done," said Xiang Shaoyun.
"No means no. Feel free to believe what you want. If you intend to attack us, things won't end well for you," said the Di Monarch.
"A mere clone is being so arrogant? Just your attempt on my son's life is enough to grant you the death sentence," said Xiang Yangzhan as he stabbed his spear at the Di Monarch.
Xiang Yangzhan might seem like he was behaving rashly, but he was only doing so due to his confidence in himself. During his years of being trapped in the coffin, his consciousness had been transported to the outside domain. He had fought the aliens every single day, experiencing enough battles to make him a god of slaughter. Thus, he did not fear even those with a cultivation level higher than him. For the sake of his son, he wouldn't hold back.
"Impudent! You dare attack the monarch? Everyone, kill them!" commanded a Di Clan God as he flew out and blocked the attack.
"Fine. Let's fight. Today, let us witness just how strong the Di Clan actually is," said Xiang Shaoyun.
"With these people, they don't stand a chance against us. But the owner of that clone is probably quite capable," said Purple Lightning Marquis as he rushed forth to battle alongside Xiang Yangzhan.
Scarlet Flame Monarch said, "I have yet to have a satisfying fight after entering the God Realm. You guys will be perfect exercise for me."
He then released the Truefire Domain, enveloping the Di Clan experts in an ocean of fire. As for Yu Huayan, she kept watch over Xiang Shaoyun, afraid that someone would try to harm him.
"You don't need to stay by my side. If you really want to help Caidie, make your move. I believe we will be able to force them to release her," said Xiang Shaoyun.
After some hesitation, Yu Huayan said, "Be careful."
She then joined the battle as well. The Di Clan Gods were all forced to fly high into the air as they faced the Gods from Xiang Shaoyun's group.
"Alright. Time for us to go and say hi to these Di Clan members," said Xiang Shaoyun to the others around him.
They then descended upon the city. The city was protected by a powerful god-grade formation that ensured that people could only leave and not enter. Thus, it did not seem likely that Xiang Shaoyun's group would be able to force their way into the city.
"Anyone important still present?" asked Xiang Shaoyun from the sky above the city.
His high and mighty attitude greatly angered the Di Clan members.
"You dare to provoke us even without any Gods by your side? I'll go and take your head," said a pseudo-God as he charged out of the formation.
"Seventh brother, let me lend you a hand," said a different pseudo-God as he charged out of the formation as well.
One ought to admit that the Di Clan was truly quite strong. Pseudo-Gods were rare even in tier-8 organizations, yet they had quite a number of them on standby in the city. Two pseudo-God attacks flew out, causing space to collapse as the attacks shot toward Xiang Shaoyun.
Naturally, Xiang Shaoyun did not have to make a move himself. Green Ghost stepped forth and blocked the two pseudo-God attacks alone. Two green claws were sent out, displaying his cultivation level as a fifth-stage pseudo-God.
As Green Ghost had been stuck in the Great Saint Realm for too long, the moment he broke through, he had become a fifth-stage pseudo-God. Before long, he would be able to enter the Rebirth Realm.
"These people are pushing it too far! Children of the clan, fight with this prince!" roared Di Mie with his sword raised.
About 30 Saints answered him, "We're willing to fight alongside the prince!"
They then charged out of the god-grade formation.
