Starting as a Son-in-law to Establish an immortal Family - Chapter 233:
Chapter 233: Chapter 120: No, Lu Lang! _3
Lockheart Gu!
After her breakthrough to Foundation Establishment, she could barely suppress the influence of the Lockheart Gu.
But at this moment, her heart couldn’t help but palpitate, as affection began to permeate.
Her divine sense involuntarily looked towards the southeast direction of Red Leaf Valley.
She saw a handsome and upright young man on a flying boat in the distance.
“Kill him, he must be killed!”
Upon seeing Lu Changsheng, the effect of the suppressed Lockheart Gu burst forth like a tide, instilling a sense of fear and dread in Meng Xiaochan’s heart.
The only thought in her mind was to kill Lu Changsheng quickly and retrieve the Lockheart Gu.
“Patriarch Chen, I can help you, but I need you to help me kill a cultivator from the Lu Family right now,” she said suddenly, clutching her chest and suppressing the agony brought on by the Lockheart Gu with a grave tone.
“Kill whom?”
Ancestor Chen directly inquired.
“I have taken an oath not to harm him, so as long as Patriarch Chen is willing to make a move, I am willing to help your Chen Family through this calamity!”
“He is on the flying boat in the southeast direction.”
Meng Xiaochan said through clenched teeth, her face contorted with pain and her voice strained.
She took out a jade slip and handed it to Ancestor Chen.
It was a portrayal of Lu Changsheng.
Ancestor Chen saw Meng Xiaochan’s painful expression and couldn’t help but be surprised by her condition.
He believed half of what Meng Xiaochan said.
He surmised that she must be under some oath or curse.
He internally remarked how overbearing the oath must be.
To cause a Foundation Building Great Cultivator such pain simply for harboring malice towards someone.
However, in the Cultivation World, there are all sorts of strange and bizarre methods.
For example, some master-servant pacts that would cause the servant to be like this, unable to break free.
Once they harbor malice, they would suffer from the backlash of the pact, leading to unbearable pain.
“Fine, I, Chen, will take on this task!”
Old Ghost Chen immediately agreed.
At this moment, he also had no choice but to agree.
Otherwise, if Meng Xiaochan left, Red Leaf Valley would be in danger.
Moreover, seeing Meng Xiaochan in such a state, he also knew.
If Lu Changsheng did not die and the great battle commenced, it might even affect the performance of his own strength as a Foundation Establishment adherent.
“Lu Old Ghost, give up. This Meng Daoist Friend is a cultivator under my Chen Family, she will not leave.”
“I have already sent a message to Daoist Zheng, it’s still not too late for you to leave now!”
Immediately after, Ancestor Chen looked towards the Lu Family Ancestor and said coldly.
“Continue breaking the formation!”
Upon hearing this, the Lu Family Ancestor ground his teeth and responded.
For him, at this moment, the situation was like an arrow on the bowstring, impossible not to launch.
Facing these circumstances, the Lu Family also had no option to retreat.
“Brother Bai, don’t worry, when the time comes, I will use a secret technique. Even if I cannot fight off Old Ghost Chen, I will make sure he suffers a severe blow and lead to a short life!”
The Lu Family Ancestor said to the Bai Family Ancestor with a heavy voice.
Compared to the Lu Family, the Bai Family’s situation was somewhat better, and they could still retreat.
So he had to continue fighting and ensure the Bai Family Ancestor was on board.
“Alright, since Brother Lu says so, I will continue to fight!”
Upon hearing this, the Bai Family Ancestor nodded in agreement.
He also did not wish for the Chen Family to become too powerful.
He hoped that before the Lu Family Ancestor died, he could take the Chen Family Ancestor with him.
Suddenly, the three Foundation Establishment Cultivators exchanged glances and began to act, attacking the formation ahead to accelerate the breach in the great formation.
“Everyone, form up!”
Ancestor Chen shouted loudly.
He prompted the Chen Family clansmen to operate their energy simultaneously, melding their qi into the formation to counter the attacks.
But the Lu and Bai families came to this battle prepared and had made comprehensive arrangements.
They not only distributed plenty of talismans for their clansmen to launch attacks with.
They had also prepared many formation-breaking talismans, continuously weakening and lifting the restrictions of the formation.
Furthermore, at this time, the array masters of the Lu and Bai families were also affecting the Red Leaf Valley’s Second Rank Great Formation with external formations.
“This won’t do, at this rate, it will be difficult to hold out until Daoist Zheng arrives,” Ancestor Chen knew. The current situation made it hard to rely on the formation to last until the arrival of Bai Family Ancestor Zheng.
Moreover, if this stalemate continued, his and his clanspeople’s mana would be continually drained by the formation.
By the time the formation was breached, he would be weakened and unable to avoid a disaster.
“Meng Daoist Friend, I shall fulfill the agreement right now!”
Ancestor Chen made a decisive call.
“`
Planning to give up the Great Formation’s defense,
relying on himself and Meng Xiao Chan to hold out until the Zheng Family’s reinforcements arrived.
As his words fell,
he took charge of the Formation, causing a huge, glass-like hammer to appear above the second-rank Great Formation like a crystalline bowl,
and smashed it heavily towards a Flying Boat in the southeast.
“Huh!? What does Old Ghost Chen think he’s doing?”
“Does he actually want to break through the defense and escape?”
“No good, it’s in the direction of the Fourth Elder!”
The Lu Family Ancestor, the Bai Family Ancestor, and Lu Yuanzhong, upon seeing this scene, were all shocked.
They did not expect Ancestor Chen to counterattack at this moment.
Believing that he intended to tear through their defensive Formation to flee, they hurriedly flew towards the southeast direction.
“Not good!”
In the southeast, aboard the Flying Boat, the Fourth Elder was commanding everyone to break the Formation.
Seeing Ancestor Chen suddenly take control of the Formation and launch an offensive against them, her complexion drastically changed.
With a slap on her Storage Bag, she activated a stack of First Rank Supreme Talismans for protection.
All of them turned into layers of golden light, enveloping everyone.
She also sacrificed a blue Treasure Bead that soared into the sky, bursting forth with dazzling light, in an attempt to block the towering hammer!
Lu Changsheng witnessed this scene, his own complexion changing.
He never expected that in the midst of an advantageous battle, the Chen Family would begin to counterattack,
and it was aimed right at his side.
He could clearly feel the terror of this strike.
This was no longer a mere attack from an average Foundation Establishment Great Cultivator.
With the First Rank Talismans of the Fourth Elder, it would likely be very difficult to defend!
At this moment, Lu Changsheng could no longer afford to hide his capabilities.
He took out the only Second Rank Middle Grade Defense Talisman he had on him and immediately activated it.
In the blink of an eye, a dense, golden divine light burst out from the talisman, forming a golden barrier that enveloped the entire Flying Boat, giving off an indestructible aura.
“Hmm? Is that a Second Rank Talisman!?”
The Fourth Elder, seeing the talisman Lu Changsheng used, was shocked, recognizing it as a Second Rank Talisman.
She did not expect Lu Changsheng to possess a talisman of such rank.
Without any time to ponder,
“Bang!”
The giant hammer from the heavens had already smashed down hard.
It directly crushed the blue Treasure Bead that the Fourth Elder had sacrificed into powder, causing the Fourth Elder’s complexion to turn pale and she let out a muffled groan.
“Bang, bang, bang——”
The hammer kept falling, causing the defenses formed by the Fourth Elder’s several Life-saving Talismans to rapidly shatter within a few breaths.
Only Lu Changsheng’s Second Rank Middle Grade Talisman managed to slightly hold up for a moment.
In that instant, Lu Changsheng activated another Second Rank Lower Grade Talisman, which formed another layer of golden light barrier.
The Fourth Elder, with no time to be surprised or to think, drew several more talismans from her Storage Bag, activated them, and formed additional defenses.
“Hmm?”
Ancestor Chen, seeing this scene, was also somewhat surprised.
He had thought that one strike would easily kill everyone on the Flying Boat.
Yet, these people actually had so many talismans,
and even ones as protective as Second Rank Talismans.
“Kill!”
Ancestor Chen’s expression turned ferocious.
He continued to draw power from the Formation, seeking to annihilate Lu Changsheng and the others.
However, at this moment, Lu Yuanzhong and the Lu Family Ancestor also arrived.
Seeing the Fourth Elder and Lu Changsheng struggling to resist, they immediately brought out their Spiritual Artifacts and cast spells to block the Formation hammer.
Meanwhile,
Meng Xiao Chan inside the Great Formation watched this unfold.
Seeing Ancestor Chen controlling the Formation to attack Lu Changsheng, she felt not the slightest pleasure.
Clutching her chest tightly, she was in extreme agony, gasping for breath, with heartache as if being cut by knives, and tears starting to flow from the corners of her eyes.
“Quick, quick!”
She could feel the influence of the Lockheart Gu and the affection in her heart causing her to gradually lose her sanity.
The last bit of reason in her mind urged her to implore Ancestor Chen to quickly kill Lu Changsheng.
But in the next instant, under the influence of the Lockheart Gu and the affection spreading through her heart, she finally could no longer maintain her clear consciousness.
“No! Lu Lang!”
Meng Xiao Chan suddenly looked up, crying out loudly, her tearful eyes gazing toward Ancestor Chen as he moved against Lu Changsheng, feeling a surge of murderous intent fill her heart.
All of a sudden, she soared into the sky, charging at Ancestor Chen, who was controlling the Formation.
