A very frightening killing aura covered every inch of the battle arena as an imposing aura that solely belonged to a nascent soul transformation master kept on oozing out of Feng Tian.
"Quell your anger patriarch, we don't need to start an inter family war just because of a minor matter." The Feng family grand elder spoke out.
"A minor matter you say, i could have lost my son...my son.." Feng Tian was angry beyond reason.
"He killed one of my brighter members of my family and you are complaining that you would kill my elder for attacking your son, let the matter end here. After all, your son is still fine." The Li family patriarch said.
"I want to see who will stop me from taking his life today." Feng Tian said as he took a step forward walking towards the battle arena .
Every step he took instilled fear into the the heart of the Li family elder who had made a sneaky attack to kill Feng Li. He turned his head to look at the Li family patriarch in order to seek for his help.
"Help me patriarch." The elder cried out with a voice filled with terror and fear.
Looking at the junior elder on the battle arena who seemed pitiful and was pleading for his help, the Li family patriarch couldn't sit still and watch his family elder be killed which would mean absolute humiliation to the Li family.
He took a step forward and begun walking straight towards the battle arena.
"You will try to stop me?" Feng Tian asked the Li family patriarch.
"If that is what it takes." The Li family patriarch said in a relaxed tone.
"So be it." Feng Tian said.
Boom!
A tremor like boom was heard as a fierce momentum erupted from the Li family patriarch while his aura spread out across the Battle arena. A red veil of light covered him as he appeared like the absolute nemesis on humanity.
"He was so confident to take on the Feng family patriarch because he had achieved a breakthrough. i see." The Yang family patriarch said.
The whole arena was covered by a frightening nascent soul suppression. The Li family patriarch is the second most powerful existence in Emerald city as far as the previous generation is concerned. Most individuals still believe that the three family's previous ancestors still exist though no one could verify this truth.
Boom
Suddenly as people were still struggling to withstand the pressure coming forth from the Li family patriarch, an even more stronger aura bursted fourth from the Feng family patriarch.
The Li family patriarch was a late fourth level nascent soul master but the Feng family patriarch was a peak fifth level nascent soul master just an inch away from breaking through to the sixth Level nascent soul any moment.
The two auras met mid air in collision as the Li family patriarch took three steps back. It was clear to everyone that the Li family patriarch was not a match to the Feng family patriarch.
Though it was clear that the Li family patriarch was not a match to Feng Tian, he still was calm as a cold smile still hung on his face as he silently stood a few metres away from the Feng family patriarch. It was as though he was still confident in taking the Feng family patriarch down despite the disparity in strength that has been exhibited by feng Tian.
Looking at the situation at hand, Feng Li was taken aback by the calm and unperturbed condition of the Li family patriarch. Him being a whole level under his father, although he could last a few moves, it was inevitable that he would be defeated nonetheless.
"Something is off here..." Feng Li slowly said to himself as he remembered what his father had told him about this day. There sure was a hidden agenda in the move. It was only that he wasn't aware of what exactly it really was.
"Are you still inclined into saving your precious little elder now?" The Feng family patriarch asked.
"Indeed i will save my elder today. But the question is will you save yourself from what is about to happen to you and your precious little boy you call your son?"
The Li family patriarch took several steps and appeared a few meters away from the Feng family patriarch. A very confident smile still was hanging on his face.
"If i remember correctly, you always hid your tail between your legs and run for your life whenever we confront each other. What i find surprising is the fact that you are still smiling even when we both know that you can not even hurt a hair on my body." Feng Tian said with a smile on his face.
It is indisputabile true that Feng Tian was the strongest existence of the three patriarchs in Emerald city. It is ironical that the Li family patriarch could face him head on with so much confidence and not have a sliver of fear on him.
"Brat, this kid from the Li family is really interesting." At this time a voice resounded inside Feng Li's mind. It was none other than the mysterious voice from the nine floor divine pagoda.
"Why do you say so senior." Feng Li asked out of curiosity.
"Clearly, his strength is far lower for him to confront the Feng family patriarch with such confidence. Unless he has a very strong backing that he is relying on." The mysterious voice said.
"Mysterious backing, what do you mean by that?" Feng Li was confused by this.
Ever since he came to this world, he has been reading about the powers and forces around Emerald city and the surrounding cities. Their are so less powers that could be ranked in the same caliber as his family and the other two families that runs the city.
Unless....
A thought passed through Feng Li mind which made his body to shiver involuntarily. There was a power form a neighbouring city called Misty city. The city is run by a single sect. Its over all strength is a level stronger than the Feng family if not equal.
Thinking of this, Feng Li quickly disregarded the idea since it was highly unlikely for such a thing to happen. The Feng Family had for a long time tried to form an alliance with that sect but to no vail. So how can a second tier family manage to pool such a thing. That would be totally absurd and humiliating to the Feng family reputation. However, nothing is certain for sure.
"Patriarch, i advice you to not act impulsively just because you are stronger than us. Take it in mind that we need to maintain peace among our three family." The Feng family grand elder spoke out.
"Who are you to lecture me of what i can and can not do. No one hurts my son and lives. This war is my own personal matter so i advise you to not even try to intervene at all." Feng Tian said with a serious tone towards the Feng family grand elder.
"Don't you think so highly of yourself. You never know what is about to hit you patriarch." The Feng family grand elder said while a sneer was hanging on his face.
"You dare threaten me, Feng Ba. You are aware that threatening the family patriarch is a capital crime right?" The Feng family patriarch asked the family grand elder.
Feng Tian has for a long time known that that the grand elder has for a long time been eyeing the patriarch seat. He is also aware that he could go to any depth just to have the seat.
Feng Ba, the grand elder has managed to turn a great number of the family elders against the patriarch so as he could easily subdue Feng Tian and take over the seat. Although he also is an early fifth level Nascent soul master, he was nonetheless stronger than the other patriarchs from the Li and Yang family.
"Am well aware of the family rules. Feng Tian, you trying to start an inter-family war shows just how incompetent you are. You do not have any rights to continue being the patriarch of our family. Therefore, i urge you to politely step down and let someone capable lead the family." The Feng family grand elder said with a sharp voice while pointing fingers towards Feng Tian.
"By someone capable, you mean someone like you right?" Feng Tian asked with a smile hanging on his face.
"Since you don't seem to have heard anything i have said. Don't blame me for being impolite."
Boom
With that said several booms were heard as the auras ranging from seventh level of the soul transformation realm the nascent soul broke free and filled the Feng family arena. Those who were weak could not help but find themselves kneeling while others lay flat on the ground.
"Am i about to witness the legendary inter-family war?"
"See, the Feng family grand elder and his elders have turned against the patriarch."
Several conversation broke from among the crowd as they readied themselves to witness an inter-clan war. The Feng family versus the Li family. What remained a question was whether the Yang family would take part and if yes, then to which side would they fight for.
