Chapter 526: Chapter 526: Ye Family’s Ancient Tower! One Tower Destroys the Fang Family!

Deep within the Ye Family estate, a thunderous roar suddenly echoed. A Treasure Tower shot into the sky, accompanied by a terrifying aura. This power, as vast as an ocean of smoke, seemed capable of suppressing the entire world!

Upon feeling this power, Clan Leader Ye, Ye Qingwu, Madam Ye, and Ye Ruxue were all utterly shocked. The entire Ye Family was stunned! They looked up at the sky, their gazes fixed on the Treasure Tower in overwhelming astonishment.

That’s the Trial Tower! Isn’t it just for testing? How can it possess such power?

A surge of excitement ran through them. This was fantastic! This power was enough to turn the tides!

Lin Xuan coldly commanded, "Suppress everyone from the Fang Family."

The Ancient Trial Tower descended from the heavens, carrying a tidal wave of force as it swiftly bore down on them. This aura was truly overwhelming, making the Fang Family members’ scalps tingle. Just moments before, they had been incomparably arrogant, believing they could easily flatten the Ye Family. But now, as they felt this power, they nearly fainted from sheer terror.

Fang Cangsong’s expression changed dramatically as he sensed a fatal crisis. "Resist with all your might!" he roared, unleashing his full power.

Another Grandmaster rushed over, and the two attacked in unison. Supported by their mighty army, they jointly resisted the Ancient Tower. The forces collided, producing a heaven-shaking sound. It was like ten thousand bolts of thunder striking at once, and the very sky and earth seemed as if they were about to be overturned.

BOOM.

The joint attack from the Fang Family shattered instantly. The Ancient Trial Tower, like an Ancient Divine Mountain, continued its descent from the sky.

"No! How is this possible?" Fang Cangsong’s face was a mask of despair.

Fang Tianyun’s scalp prickled with fear, and the rest of the Fang Family fell into utter despair. Even with our combined strength, we’re no match for it? How can this be?

"Run!"

"Flee, quickly!"

They turned to run, but it was too late. The Ancient Trial Tower had already descended, suppressing everything.

BOOM!

The world trembled. Everyone’s energy and blood churned violently, and the shockwave nearly knocked them unconscious. When everything calmed down, they all hurriedly looked up, anxious to see the result. What they saw stunned them. The only thing in the sky was a single Treasure Tower, floating silently. As for the members of the Fang Family, not a single person was left. All that remained was a patch of sky, dyed blood-red.

Dead. The Grandmasters were dead. Their mighty army was gone. Every last member of the Fang Family had been annihilated.

Clan Leader Ye was dumbfounded. Ye Qingwu was aghast. Madam Ye stared in disbelief. Ye Ruxue was completely stupefied. The Ye Family members stood frozen as if in a dream. The distant onlookers felt their scalps tingle, their eyes nearly popping out of their sockets.

Heavens, what did we just see?

The entire Fang Family... all dead! It was unbelievable! Their lineup had been so formidable, yet they were completely annihilated in an instant! And it was all because of Lin Xuan. That young man was simply heaven-defying! He could actually control such a terrifying Treasure Tower!

No wonder he had been so unconcerned when facing the Fang Family; it turned out he had such a powerful card up his sleeve. Before, Lin Xuan had been full of confidence, paying no mind to Fang Cangsong or even the entire Fang Family. They had thought he was arrogant and reckless, completely ignorant of his own mortality. Now they realized that wasn’t it at all. They were the ones who had been blind, utterly clueless as to how powerful Lin Xuan truly was. With a single move, Lin Xuan had directly annihilated the Fang Family!

The Ye Family was also reeling in shock. Clan Leader Ye felt like he was in a dream. "Is this the power of the Ancient Trial Tower? It’s so incredibly mighty!"

"We won! We don’t have to run away anymore!" Ye Qingwu cried, tears of joy streaming down her face.

Madam Ye finally breathed a deep sigh of relief. As for Ye Ruxue, she was utterly petrified, completely scared out of her wits.

The other Ye Family members erupted in cheers. "We won! We won!"

"This is great, we survived!"

The pressure they had been under was truly immense, as they had been certain death awaited them. Unexpectedly, the situation had been completely reversed, and it was all thanks to Lin Xuan. It was Lin Xuan who had saved them!

"Young Master Lin, thank you!"

"Young Master Lin, you’re amazing!"

"That was unbelievable!"

"You are our great benefactor!"

The members of the Ye Family were overcome with excitement. Clan Leader Ye also walked over and asked excitedly, "What exactly is going on?"

Madam Ye and the others rushed over as well, utterly astonished. "Is this really our Ye Family’s Trial Tower? How can it be so powerful?"

A faint smile touched Lin Xuan’s lips. "Of course this is your Ye Family’s Trial Tower," he said. "Its power is far beyond your imagination." After speaking, Lin Xuan looked up at the Trial Tower and added with a grin, "Master Ta, thank you for your help this time."

From within the Trial Tower, a loud voice echoed, "There is no need for courtesy. After all, I promised to act on your behalf once.

"Consider that promise fulfilled."

"What was that voice? Who’s speaking?" The Ye Family members were stunned. Clan Leader Ye stared at the Trial Tower, his eyes nearly bulging out of their sockets.

Lin Xuan calmly explained, "That is the Tower Spirit speaking."

"What? A Tower Spirit?" The Ye Family was profoundly shocked. Madam Ye was dumbfounded, Ye Qingwu was amazed, and Ye Ruxue was stunned. Everyone in the Ye Family was utterly flabbergasted.

When Lin Xuan had mentioned a Tower Spirit before, they hadn’t believed him in the slightest. In their view, he was just bragging. But what was the reality? There really was a Tower Spirit! Lin Xuan hadn’t been bragging at all! Everything he had said was true!

Then... was what he said about all nine lamps being lit true as well? At this moment, everyone looked expectantly toward the Trial Tower.

The Tower Spirit’s voice echoed from within. "Indeed. Lin Xuan did light all nine lamps, achieving the feat of nine lamps alight!"

The Ye Family was in an uproar. It was true! It was really true! Lin Xuan had truly achieved the feat of nine lamps alight! It was so unbelievable!

Clan Leader Ye and the others were profoundly shocked. Ye Ruxue’s spirit completely shattered. How can this be?

It turned out that Lin Xuan was the true peerless genius! It was Lin Xuan who had caused the celestial anomaly. Lin Xuan possessed the talent of a Great Emperor. Lin Xuan had lit all nine lamps, breaking the Ye Family’s record. Lin Xuan had even slain the Ninth Elder, fighting across a gap of seven cultivation realms! What kind of glory was this? What kind of heaven-defying power was this!

Ye Ruxue broke down completely. It turned out she was the real buffoon all along. How laughable. She had doubted Lin Xuan, mocked him, but in the end, she was the foolish one.

Lost and dejected, Ye Ruxue spat out a mouthful of blood and collapsed to the ground. Yet, no one from the Ye Family paid her any mind. Everyone was crowded around Lin Xuan; even Madam Ye and Clan Leader Ye didn’t spare her a glance. How did it come to this? Ye Ruxue fell into complete despair.

Ahead, the crowd surrounded Lin Xuan, asking excitedly, "Young Master Lin, since you lit all nine lamps, does this mean we can return to the Central Province?"

Lin Xuan shook his head. "I’m afraid not."

The Tower Spirit’s voice sounded again. "Lin Xuan does not possess the Ye Family bloodline. Even though he lit all nine lamps, you still cannot return to the Central Province.

"Only when someone of your own Ye Family bloodline achieves the feat of lighting all nine lamps at once can you return to the Central Province.

"Your lineage still has much work to do."

"We obey!" everyone replied, bowing respectfully.

Then, the Ancient Trial Tower receded back into the depths of the Ye Family estate. Afterward, Clan Leader Ye and Madam Ye respectfully escorted Lin Xuan away, while the Grand Elder and the others were left responsible for cleaning up the battlefield.

The distant onlookers remained in shock. It took them a long time to come to their senses.

"Should we leave, too?" one asked.

"Leave? Are you kidding? We need to go pay our respects to Young Master Lin immediately!"

"He’s a Young Emperor!"

"Right, right! Let’s go pay respects to Young Master Lin!"

Without hesitation, the crowd of spectators rushed toward the Ye Family estate to pay their respects to Lin Xuan. At this moment, Lin Xuan stood like a Young Emperor, admired and revered by all.

...

「Fang Family.」

The Fang Family’s clan leader had not taken action this time. Fang Cangsong had only taken half of the family’s forces, leaving the other half to guard their home. Nevertheless, Clan Leader Fang was full of confidence. Half of their family’s strength was more than enough to easily sweep over the Ye Family.

After exterminating the Ye Family and seizing their territory, their strength would grow even greater. Not only that, but they would also obtain the Earth Spirit Pearl. A single Earth Spirit Pearl could create a peerless genius.

Which disciple in the family should I give it to? Or... should I use it myself?

Just as he was lost in thought, a deafening boom suddenly resounded from afar. The entire world seemed to be suppressed by a terrifying power. The Fang family clan leader was terrified and quickly rushed outside to look into the distance. The power was coming from the direction of the Ye Family.

"Hahaha, it must be Fang Cangsong and the others! They’ve succeeded!" he exclaimed, overcome with excitement. "The Ye Family has been destroyed! This is wonderful!"

He turned to his clan members and declared, "This is a joyous occasion! Prepare a banquet! We must celebrate properly this time!"
