Elderly warriors on the battlefield of all races

Chapter 166 Determination
The Ding family was originally full of confidence because they had destroyed their arch-enemy, the Xiao family, hundreds of years ago.

So even though they knew that the Xiao family had made a comeback, they still felt that the Xiao family posed no threat to the Ding family, and they even boasted about it.

However, when the Ding family heard what Ding Yue said that there was a half-saint in the Xiao family, they were all stunned. They all suddenly became quiet like ducks with their necks pinched.

"Xiao Yue, are you telling the truth?"

"How could the Xiao family have a half-saint? Stop joking."

“I don’t believe it. Even if the Xiao family makes a comeback, they have been hiding like dogs all these years. There is no way they can produce a semi-saint.”

Although the Ding family is a large family, its strongest person is only at the peak of the ninth level.

There is a huge gap between the ninth level and the semi-saint, and it’s not just the difference in strength.

A semi-saint can fly in the air, a skill that a ninth-level warrior cannot possibly master.

So in front of a semi-saint, the Ding family was nothing. A semi-saint easily wiped out the entire Ding family without any effort.

Dante's family didn't believe that the Xiao family had produced a half-saint.

Their Ding family has worked hard for so many years, but has not yet produced a semi-saint. This shows how difficult it is to become a semi-saint.

Not to mention the ordinary members of the Ding family, the head of the Ding family, Ding Xiong, and the remaining two ninth-level masters were all stunned.

"Xiao Yue, are you sure what you said is true?"

"A semi-saint appeared in the Xiao family?"

Ding Xiong's face changed. The moment he knew that the other party had a semi-saint, no matter how strong the Ding family was, it was useless. Facing a semi-saint, even with three ninth-level masters in the Ding family, they could not stop it.

In the end, there is only one result, and that is to be wiped out.

But they were not sure whether the news was true or false.

At this moment, everyone looked at Ding Yue, even Ding Pei and Ding Yue's parents were shocked. A half-saint was like the sky, pressing down on them.

Everyone feels heavy in their heart.

"Yueyue, where did you get this information? Can you confirm whether it's true or not?"

Ding Pei couldn't help but ask more questions. The matter was much more serious than they had imagined.

However, the Ding family has been looking for news about the Xiao family for years but has found no trace. Now Ding Yue has learned that the Xiao family is making a comeback.

Even knowing that there was a half-saint in the Xiao family, everyone found it very strange.

Everyone looked at Ding Yue.

Ding Yue said in a deep voice: "I went to Wen County this time, and I met a strange person. His cultivation level was at least half-saint or above. I learned this news from him."

"As soon as I got the news, I rushed back to the family, but I believe that this news must be true."

"She knows about the grudge between our Ding family and the Xiao family, and also knows the whereabouts and current situation of the Xiao family, so this cannot be fake news."

"We, the Ding family, must be well prepared, otherwise, if the Xiao family attacks us, it will be too late."

The Dark Queen is a powerful being that emerged after the ancient seal was opened. Her cultivation is unfathomable and she is definitely above a semi-saint.

So that kind of person cannot possibly spread any false information, because there is no need to tell lies.

Besides, the Dark Queen's goal was to take her in as her disciple, so it was impossible for her to deceive her.

She chose to believe the Dark Queen's words.

Zhang Mu, who had been silent, also interjected at the right time: "Master Ding, you'd better believe what Ding Yue said and start preparing."

"We encountered some strange things together. It's inconvenient to tell you, but I think you should know the truth of this matter better."

Ding Yue had told him about her encounter with the Dark Queen before, and then they met the giant again, so he believed that the Dark Queen would not lie to Ding Yue.

Because the Dark Queen's strength is extremely terrifying, not much different from that giant.

They had personally experienced how powerful the giant was. The giant foot that fell from the sky instantly kicked away a ninth-order peak Undead Order master.

Even Yang Xuan, who had the cultivation level of a semi-saint, was as weak as a chick in front of him.

It is conceivable that the strength of the Dark Queen is slightly weaker than that of the Giant, but she is definitely not someone that a Half-Saint can contend with, and she is even stronger than a Great Saint.

After hearing what Ding Yue and Zhang Mu said, all the members of the Ding family looked extremely solemn.

Ding Xiong and the other two ninth-level masters of the Ding family looked at each other and didn't know what to say for a moment.

After a long while, Ding Xiong said in a deep voice: "If the Xiao family makes a comeback and they have a semi-saint, our Ding family will be wiped out soon."

"Whether the news is true or not, our Ding family must respond."

At this time, the other members of the Ding family also began to panic. No matter how passionate they were, they were powerless in the face of a semi-saint, and could only wait to be silenced.

The grudge between the Ding family and the Xiao family is too deep. Whenever they meet, one of them will be killed without mercy.

They can't explain why this is so, but they have been living like this for many years.

The feud between the Ding family and the Xiao family seems like fate, with no solution.

Hundreds of years ago, they wiped out the Xiao family, but some of the other family members survived and made a comeback. Their Ding family is not as strong as the Xiao family, and they will encounter the same situation as the Xiao family hundreds of years ago.

"Master, what should we do?"

"I also think this news might be true. After all, a branch of the Xiao family did survive, and even the remnants of the Ding family escaped."

"If the Xiao family really has a semi-saint, we can never be their opponent."

"Master, for the sake of the Ding family, please keep some of the clan members and disperse them to different places, leaving the bloodline of the Ding family. Even if we die in battle, as long as the Ding family members survive, the Ding family can still rise in the future."

Immediately, some elders of the Ding family began to discuss that at this moment of life and death, the big family could only start to preserve the flame and send some clansmen away.

This is the only way to avoid being wiped out by the Xiao family.

Hundreds of years ago, the Xiao family dispersed some of its members, which prevented them from being completely wiped out and gave them the opportunity to make a comeback today.

Ding Xiong nodded: "Okay, now that things have come to this, we can only preserve the fire for now."

Therefore, the Ding family selected some young members of the family, and after giving them instructions, they quickly began to withdraw from the family and fled to various places.

This is also the Ding family’s only chance.

But before meeting the Xiao family, it is impossible for the Ding family to evacuate completely. They even have to leave behind their real main force to fight the Xiao family.

The Ding family can be defeated and can keep the flame, but they will never back down. This is also the way the two families have dealt with the years of fighting.

Few people would choose to flee because their enemies are coming to kill them.

After dismissing some of the clan members, Ding Xiong said to Ding Yue, Ding Pei and others: "Ding Yue, Ding Pei, you are also rare geniuses in our Ding family."

"You should retreat as well. Leave the family first. If the Xiao family doesn't come to kill us, everything will be fine. If the Xiao family really destroys the Ding family, remember to find our Ding family again when you are strong enough."

"Then, go and destroy the Xiao family."

The first people they dismissed were the ones with the weakest cultivation, because those people were unknown and could hide in any corner, making it almost impossible for the Xiao family to find them.

Only in this way can the fire of the Ding family be preserved. As for people like Ding Yue, Ding Pei, etc., they have already gained a certain degree of fame in Blue Star. It is very difficult for them to hide their identities, and it is easy for the Xiao family to find them.

Therefore, Ding Yue and others could choose to leave the family and join other forces, or serve in the army. At that time, the Xiao family would have some concerns and naturally would not dare to act against them easily.

You can also survive well and wait for an opportunity to take revenge later.

Ding Pei shook her head: "Grandmaster, I am a member of the Ding family, and I will be a ghost of the Ding family after I die. If the Xiao family comes, I will fight to the death with the Xiao family."

Although the family gave them a chance to survive, Ding Pei gave it up. It would be good to be alive, but if the family was destroyed, what was the point of living?
The weak members of the clan are enough to continue the Ding family's legacy.

Ding Yue also said: "I am also a member of the Ding family. How can I abandon my family and leave?"

"How can you be a rival of the Xiao family if you are afraid of death?"

Like Ding Pei, Ding Yue chose to stay in the Ding family and face their arch-enemy, the Xiao family.

Except for those members who kept the fire, no other member of the Ding family left. Even some members of the Ding family who heard the news began to return to the Ding family.

We must face the Xiao family together.

Even if there is a half-saint, the Ding family is not afraid and vows to fight to the death with the Xiao family.

Zhang Mu was a little surprised to see the Ding family united as never before. He didn't expect that the Ding family would have such a strong side.

Even though they knew they were no match for the opponent, they still chose to fight to the end.

Suddenly, Ding Yue looked at Zhang Mu affectionately and said to him, "Old Zhang, please leave first. I will come back to you after the feud between our Ding family and the Xiao family is over."

At this moment, Ding Yue didn't want Zhang Mu to be involved in their family struggle. After all, the grudges between the two sides would never involve outsiders.

Besides, this time the Xiao family has a semi-saint strongman, so all the people who stayed in the Ding family have given up hope of living, and everyone is determined to die.

Including Ding Yue himself.

She could die fighting for her family, but she could not implicate Zhang Mu.

Fortunately, she was content and had no regrets during the time she was with Zhang Mu.

The only pity is that I probably won’t be able to be with Zhang Mu forever in this life.

Zhang Mu smiled and shook his head: "Are you stupid? I am now the son-in-law of the Ding family and a member of the Ding family. Can I leave?"

The Xiao family has a semi-saint strongman, but it is impossible for Zhang Mu to leave Ding Yue alone.

Maybe he can also get involved in this war between the Ding family and the Xiao family.

As for life or death, it depends on the situation.

After saying that, Zhang Mu reached out and held Ding Yue's soft and boneless hand, holding it tightly in his hand: "I won't leave, let's fight together."

Ding Yue's body trembled slightly, and she regretted bringing Zhang Mu to the Ding family. She didn't expect that she couldn't drive Zhang Mu away after he came.

Then, she suddenly shook off Zhang Mu's hand: "I now announce that we are breaking up."

After saying this, Ding Yue's eyes turned red.

Originally, she didn't want to say such words, but she didn't want to implicate Zhang Mu, so she had to find a way to get rid of Zhang Mu, so she said this ruthlessly.

"Do you think I'm a three-year-old?"

"You said break up, so we break up? Did I agree?"

Without saying a word, Zhang Mu grabbed Ding Yue's hand again, not giving Ding Yue a chance to let go.

I know that Subscription will play such tricks, but it’s useless to him. He is not a child. Can such a simple way to get rid of him?
The key point is that the Ding family has enemies, and Zhang Mu can't just sit back and watch.

Seeing this, Ding Pei beside him suddenly said in a deep voice: "Zhang Mu, I am very optimistic about you and my sister, but you don't need to get involved in the feud between our Ding family and the Xiao family."

"We are sworn enemies, and the fight will never end."

"Go ahead and take my Yueyue away from the Ding family."

She wanted Zhang Mu to take Ding Yue away. As long as Ding Yue followed Zhang Mu, the Xiao family would not easily take action against Ding Yue. After all, the Xiao family would have some concerns about Zhang Mu's current identity.

Ding Yue's parents also came over, especially Ding Yue's father Ding Tao, who grabbed Zhang Mu's hands with both hands and pleaded, "Zhang Mu, we accept you as our son-in-law."

"So, please take my daughter away. If you have the chance in the future, please help our Ding family so that our descendants will not be exterminated by the Xiao family."

"We entrust our daughter to you."

At this moment, Ding Yue's parents all begged Zhang Mu to take Ding Yue away, their only daughter.

They were very optimistic about Zhang Mu as a son-in-law, and even asked Zhang Mu to protect the Ding family and the Fire Clan members of the Ding family when the time was right.

But Ding Yue immediately objected.

"No, I won't leave. As a member of the Ding family, I will never leave."

"Sorry, Lao Zhang, I want to stay, you go, we have broken up"

Before Ding Yue could finish speaking, Zhang Mu kissed Ding Yue on the mouth, blocking her mouth.

He kissed Ding Yue hard, leaving her confused.

After a while, Zhang Mu finally let go of Ding Yue's mouth: "Stop talking nonsense and be quiet."

"Besides breaking up, what else can you do?"

Zhang Mu forcefully interrupted Ding Yue's chattering.

The Ding family members were stunned and looked shocked. Even Ding Yue's parents were dumbfounded. Zhang Mu really did come up with this unexpected move.

After letting Ding Yue calm down, Zhang Mu said to the Ding family, "I choose to stay and fight with the Ding family."

Everyone in the Ding family was surprised and looked at Zhang Mu in surprise.

Zhang Mu is not yet the son-in-law of the Ding family, but he is willing to fight with the Ding family. This kind of courage and boldness is indeed not something that ordinary people can possess.

After all, their opponent was a semi-saint, and they stayed even though they knew they could not defeat him.

The Ding family members all admire Zhang Mu very much. They think he is a real man and worthy of being the son-in-law of their Ding family.

Some of the elders of the Ding family showed expressions of approval.

However, Ding Xiong, the head of the Ding family, came over and said, "Zhang Mu, although you are the son-in-law of our Ding family, this matter has nothing to do with you."

"You are the hope of our human race and the future of our human race. Therefore, you cannot participate in the feud between our Ding family and the Xiao family this time."

"Take Ding Yue away from here, and if there is a chance in the future, just help the Ding family."

"There is no need to sacrifice for our Ding family."

As the head of the Ding family, Ding Xiong naturally needs a strong helper, but he is absolutely unwilling to implicate Zhang Mu because Zhang Mu's identity is very special now.

Moreover, the future potential is huge. If Zhang Mu encounters any accident because of the Ding family's affairs, the Ding family will probably be despised by the human race.

Therefore, he would not let Zhang Mu stay.
