Everyone’s eyes blazed with anger. After all, Jared and Carl’s sudden attack just now had been far too despicable—they had completely disregarded the rules of the family assembly.If the other side didn’t even abide by such basic rules, then there was no need for this family assembly to continue!The atmosphere at the venue instantly became extremely tense, like a bowstring stretched taut.Albert looked at Jared, Carl, and the others with an indifferent expression, and said in a flat tone, Originally, I kept backing down repeatedly because I didn’t want the Martin Family to end up in this situation. But it seems I was being naive.Upon hearing this, Jared sneered and said, No need to put it so nicely. You’re just worried that if the two factions of the Martin Family go to war, it will damage the family’s strength, and in turn, affect this ancient formation that guards the headquarters.It seems you know quite a lot, Albert narrowed his eyes slightly.Jared let out a cold laugh and said,

The moment Joseph appeared, Sean and the others all felt the terrifying oppressive aura that had originally enshrouded them vanish completely. They stared in shock and wild joy at the figure emanating a overwhelming murderous aura, their hearts filled with excitement for a moment.When an enemy Divine-Rank powerhouse appeared, only the emergence of a powerhouse of the same rank on their own side could save everyone from despair.The two family heads really left a backup plan, Sean exclaimed with emotion, his voice brimming with excitement. Although he had harbored some guesses before, no speculation could bring more reassurance than the truth itself.High above the Martin Family headquarters, Howard—who stood suspended in mid-air—turned his gaze to Joseph the instant Joseph appeared. Feeling the murderous aura radiating from Joseph, Howard’s expression gradually grew solemn. This kind of murderous aura did not come out of nowhere; it was forged through real experiences of wading throu

In their previous clashes, none of his attacks had achieved the slightest effect. This was not only because Joseph possessed terrifyingly immense physical strength, but also because of the murderous aura emanating from the butchering knife in his hand—this was one of the reasons too.Although Joseph had yet to reveal his own Divine Platform up to this point, even so, Howard had already been unable to make the slightest progress against him.Judging from this, ordinary methods were no longer useful.A cold glint flashed in Howard’s eyes. He clasped his hands together and quickly formed seals. At the same time, above the sky behind him, fiery red clouds unexpectedly piled up, as if forming a crimson cloud that covered the entire sky.In the next moment, the crimson cloud was torn apart, and an enormous fiery red palm print—over a thousand meter in size—burst out from the clouds.Divine-Rank Soul Technique, Heavenly Fire Divine Palm!...The instant Howard unleashed the Divine-Rank Soul

His purpose was self-evident. The surge in Emily’s Soul Power came from sacrificing her Celestial Stars through her secret technique—but now, only three of Emily’s Celestial Stars remained. That’s right; in the short span of time just now, she had sacrificed yet another one of her original four Celestial Stars.Although Albert didn’t know if sacrificing Celestial Stars like this would leave any after-effects, the drop in her cultivation realm would eventually require her to re-cultivate to regain what was lost. Clearly, this would also delay Emily’s cultivation progress to some extent.It was obvious that Emily had prepared no less than he had for today’s Family Assembly.Yet, even so, the situation still seemed daunting.Once Emily had sacrificed all three of her remaining Celestial Stars, how would she stand against Bernard then?From Bernard’s constant stalling now, it was clear he was waiting precisely for that moment.Albert let out a deep breath. He had gone through immense hardshi

Bernard’s expression also turned extraordinarily solemn at this moment. An unceasing torrent of golden Soul Power surged out from his body like a flood, pouring into the golden bell to resist the purification of the sacred fire phoenix.Yet to his slight relief, although the golden bell was dissolving, it had not completely shattered after all.Emily, you truly have surprised me, he said, turning to look at her and breaking into a smile again, attempting to disturb her state of mind with his words. But unfortunately, the strength of a False Divine Rank is not something you can shake right now.As soon as Bernard’s voice fell, he suddenly seemed to sense something. His gaze snapped around, darting toward a corner of the square.In an instant, his expression darkened completely.It wasn’t just him—even Emily, Sean, Cherry, and the others also sensed it, their gazes shifting toward that direction.What they saw was Albert, who had been standing there moments before. Suddenly, an extremel
