The Ye Family Has A Terrifying Existence

"A Ninth-grade Pre-Emperor is one step shy from achieving Grand Emperor!"

"It's really a little terrifying. A Ninth-grade Pre-Emperor is like a monster that only appears once in a thousand years!"

"I can't believe I'm able to meet two Ninth-grade Pre-Emperors this time. I wonder if I should say that I'm lucky."

"Of course! After all, it's rare to see a Ninth-grade Pre-Emperor. It's already a blessing to see one but today, I'm able to see two Ninth-grade Pre-Emperors!"

Countless beings on the continent were conversing with their Divine Consciousnesses, discussing how powerful the two Ninth-grade Pre-Emperors were.

"But who do you think is stronger, Patriarch Ye or Patriarch Yuwen? "

"They're both Ninth-grade Pre-Emperors. It's hard to tell."

"That's not true. Patriarch Yuwen's realm is not high enough. It seems like he has just reached the Ninth-grade of Pre-Emperor recently."

"On the other hand, the Ye family's patriarch is already a famous Ninth-grade Pre-Emperor! I'm afraid that the Ye family's Patriarch has already reached the late-stage of Ninth-grade Pre-Emperor!"

"The Ye family's patriarch is only one step away from becoming a Semi-Grand Emperor! As long as the Ye family's patriarch can achieve enlightenment, he can reach the Grand Emperor realm in no time!"

"So that makes Patriarch Ye the person closest to the Grand Emperor in this era."

"That's true. The Ye family's Patriarch can be called the number one expert below the Grand Emperor."

All the living beings on the continent were shocked by the battle of the Pre-Emperors.

When the other two great families saw this scene, they could not help but tremble in fear.

Chief Lin looked at the sky and shook his head. "They are both top families of the continent, but why is there such a huge gap between them?"

The Ye family's Supreme Grand Patriarch faced off against a Ninth-grade and Eighth-grade Pre-Emperor.

Although the Yuwen family should not be underestimated, they were on a completely different level compared to the Ye family.

Patriarch Lin chuckled, "What top five families? The Ye family is the only top family. The other families, including us, are not worthy."

Chief Lin nodded and said, "Indeed. The Ye family is on a completely different level compared to the other families. It's not an exaggeration to say that the Ye family is the only top family. 

"However, from the looks of it, the Ye family's Supreme Grand Patriarch is unable to keep up. Are we really staying out of this?" Chief Lin continued.

Patriarch Lin shook his head, "There's no need for that. If it was the beginning, the Lin family would still be able to rush to the scene, it's too late now."

Chief Lin found it extremely strange when he heard the patriarch's words.

Although the Lin family was not close to the Ye family, if they were to rush over at full speed, they should be able to make a difference.

The patriarch's strength was at the Eighth-grade of the Pre-Emperor realm and he was at the Sixth-grade of the Pre-Emperor realm, they would be able to help the Ye family.

Patriarch Lin looked in a certain direction and squinted his eyes.

"Eh? The Li family can't wait any longer? Do you want a share of the loot?" Patriarch Lin said.

"The Li family wants a share? Doesn't this mean that the Ye family is in even more danger?" Chief Lin asked.

"The Li family will only have more dead bodies. The Ye family's terror is beyond our imagination." Patriarch Lin said.

 "Patriarch, what does the Ye family have that made the three great families' efforts go to waste?" the chief asked.

"The Ye family has the world's most powerful people! The terror of any one of them is no longer in the ranks of this world. Be it the Yuwen family, the Shentu family, or the Li family, it's like they are marching straight into death's door."

Patriarch Lin's face was smeared with fear.

Chief Lin also frowned.

The Yuwen family, the Shentu family, and even the Li family were all courting death?

What did the patriarch see in his divination?

What was the Ye family's trump card?

It must be something terrifying that could eliminate all three of the top families.

Could it be a Grand Emperor?

That's not right. If the Ye family had a Grand Emperor, they would have made a move long ago.

After all, if a Grand Emperor were to appear in this era, it would definitely cause a huge scene, and the entire continent would worship him.

The Ye family hadn't had any unusual signs in the past ten thousand years.

Chief Lin was a little confused.

Could it be because the Ye family had a friendship with some Grand Emperor?

From the looks of it, it was extremely possible.

…

On the other side, the Li family had already gathered all the Li family cultivators.

Countless Saints, Grant Saints, and even the Li family's Pre-Emperor elders were all mobilized.

To the Li family, the Ye family was a hot cake that they wished to have a share.

One must know that the Li family's power was only considered average among the five top families.

They could not be compared to the Yuwen family or even the Lin family.

Their overall strength was only slightly stronger than the Shentu family.

That was why they were eager to improve their strength and bring themselves to a higher level.

It was quite sullen to always be second from the bottom.

Chief Li looked to the east and sneered, "Patriarch, we must take at least 30% of the Ye family's resources. Otherwise, it's a waste to send so many troops."

Off to the side, Patriarch Li silently nodded.

"The Li family is also one of the top five families. We should get 30% of the Ye family's resources," Patriarch Li said as he stroked his beard.

As he spoke, he looked through the layers of dark clouds at the six figures above the Ye family. His eyes flickered.

He didn't expect Patriarch Yuwen to be a Ninth-grade Pre-Emperor. Although he was only in the early-stage, it was still a huge improvement.

Other than the Yuwen family's patriarch, the Ye family's patriarch was a little too strong.

Patriarch Li frowned.

In fact, he didn't want the Li family to suffer too much losses.

Otherwise, it would be meaningless to get only 30% of the Ye family's resources. He might even suffer a loss.

He had sent troops to the Ye family because he did not want the Yuwen and Shentu families to eat up all of the Ye family's resources.

The Yuwen family was fine as they had been powerful.

If the Shentu family were to take just 30 to 40% of the Ye family's resources, they could easily surpass the Li family.

It would be a huge humiliation to the Li family.

"Patriarch, if we takes 30% of the Ye family's resources, we will definitely surpass the Lin family's," Chief Li said happily.

The Lin family's power had been stronger than the Li family's by a notch all along. This had made the Li family unhappy for many years.

Now that they had the chance to surpass the Lin family, the Li family head was overjoyed.

To Chief Li, The joy of being able to surpass his old rival was no less than advancing his cultivation base.

Patriarch Li agreed. "My cultivation level is similar to the Lin family's patriarch. We are both Eighth-grade Pre-Emperors. The only thing we lack is resources. After taking over the Ye family, we will definitely surpass the Lin family."
