Since You Miss Your Son So Much, Why Not Join Him?

"It seems this guy has gone completely mad because of Jiu Feng's death…"

"Not even the name of the Gu Clan can intimidate him now!"

Hearing Huang Tian's icy shout, Yao Ming's face gradually darkened.

Outside the Nine Serene Ground Abyss, as Huang Tian's words fell, he wasted no time. A ripple spread through the space around him, as his figure shot straight toward the Nine Serene Springs, deep within the headquarters of the Nine Serene Deep Ground Python Tribe.

"This guy actually dares to barge into our sacred ground!"

"Such behavior tramples on the dignity of our tribe!"

The elders of the snake tribe were furious upon seeing this.

"Huang Tian, you're going too far!"

"This is the territory of our Tribe!"

As the tribe leader, Yao Ming had to step forward at this moment. He appeared in front of Huang Tian, shouting angrily.

"Yao Ming, if you dare stop me today, don't blame me for disregarding the past friendship between our tribes!"

Huang Tian's expression was indifferent, his golden eyes coldly fixated on Yao Ming. In a flash, he moved to bypass him.

"I've long heard of the unmatched strength of Clan Leader Huang Tian. Today, let me test it myself!"

Yao Ming refused to back down. Despite the vast difference in strength, he bravely moved to block Huang Tian, fulfilling his promise to Gu Fei.

"Overestimating yourself!"

A sneer appeared on Huang Tian's face. He flicked his finger, and a streak of golden light shot out, striking Yao Ming.

Yao Ming raised his palm to block, but the golden light left a half-inch wound on his otherwise iron-hard hand.

"Get out of my way!"

With a cold shout, Huang Tian suddenly appeared before Yao Ming like a ghost. With a light flick of his sleeve, a tremendous force slammed into Yao Ming.

*Boom!*

With just one blow, Yao Ming was hurled violently into a nearby mountain.

Given Huang Tian's strength, killing Yao Ming would have been easy. However, he held back, not wanting a full-scale war between the two tribes, which wouldn't benefit the Heaven Demon Phoenix Tribe. Thus, he only gravely injured Yao Ming.

"Leader!"

"Let's fight them to the death!"

Seeing Yao Ming beaten down, the warriors of the Nine Serene Deep Ground Python Tribe were furious.

But those elders, with only Dou Venerate-level power, were no match for Huang Tian, a five-star Dou Saint.

With a simple wave of Huang Tian's hand, a gust of wind sent the charging snake warriors flying.

"Form the formation!"

Climbing out from the rubble, Yao Ming's cold, razor-sharp voice echoed.

As soon as Yao Ming's command fell, over a hundred figures rose into the sky, arranging themselves in a mysterious pattern.

"Snake Plate Great Formation!"

The elders formed a massive formation stretching over a thousand meters.

Seeing this, a slight frown appeared on Huang Tian's face. He hadn't expected them to bring out their protective grand formation.

"Huang Tian, if you leave now, our tribe can forgive your previous offenses…"

At the center of the formation, Yao Ming's hands rapidly formed seals, sending a beam of light from his body into the formation.

An endless torrent of energy gathered, twisting and condensing into a colossal snake, thousands of meters long, exuding an ancient aura of overwhelming power.

"Hmph, do you think only your Tribe can use formations?"

"Heavenly Phoenix Ancient Formation, rise!"

With Huang Tian's command, the numerous experts of the Heaven Demon Phoenix Tribe in the distant sky swiftly spread out. In unison, they let out a mighty shout, and a deafening cry pierced the heavens and earth.

In the next instant, a giant phoenix, no smaller than the snake, spread its enormous wings and appeared, blocking out the sky.

"Oh my! Both tribes are using their protective grand formations…"

"It looks like the Beast Region is about to be shaken to its core…"

"Indeed, no matter which side wins, both sides will be left devastated."

Those gathered around the Nine Serene Ground Abyss to watch the confrontation were all shocked by what they saw.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Huang Tian's gaze calmly swept over the massive snake blocking his path. In a flash, he darted toward the Nine Serene Springs.

"Kill!"

Yao Ming and his people commanded the giant snake to intercept him.

But Huang Tian paid no heed, swiftly evading the towering serpent.

Just as the serpent turned to attack him, the massive phoenix formed by Phoenix Tribe's grand formation crashed into it head-on.

"Damn it! Hold them off…"

Left with no choice, Yao Ming and his clan members focused on battling the phoenix.

Meanwhile, Huang Tian quickly reached the Serene Springs.

The surface of the spring had solidified into a thick layer of ice, from which waves of chilling cold continuously emanated.

"This woman of Gu Fei's is truly remarkable, managing to cultivate in such a place…"

A look of surprise flashed in Huang Tian's eyes. Though he could move freely in the Nine Serene Springs, he dared not stay too long to cultivate.

"Let's pull her out first…"

Huang Tian extended his hand and clenched it toward the spring below.

The previously solid ice covering the lake shattered into countless pieces.

"Come out!"

Wasting no time, Huang Tian clenched his hand again, and the lake erupted with towering water columns that he forcefully drew from the depths.

Seeing this, Yao Ming felt powerless. He was tied up by the Phoenix Tribe's grand formation and couldn't stop Huang Tian.

If this continued, he would likely disturb Cai Lin, who was cultivating inside.

"Gu Fei, my brother, I've done all I can!"

Yao Ming sighed deeply.

To repay his debt to Gu Fei, he had thrown his entire tribe into a deadly conflict with the far stronger Phoenix Tribe.

"Since you still won't come out, I guess I'll have to dive in myself…"

"Once I catch you, I'll make sure you suffer to honor my son's spirit in the afterlife…"

When Huang Tian's attempts failed to draw out his target, he paused, preparing to dive into the depths of the Serene Springs himself.

"Huang Tian, if you miss your son that much, why not join him in death!"

At that moment, a cold voice echoed from the distant sky, reaching Huang Tian's ears.

Hearing this, Huang Tian froze, quickly turning to the source of the voice.

There, two figures rapidly approached from the sky.

"Isn't that Young Master Gu Fei? He's still alive?"

"It was rumored that Young Master Gu Fei was trapped in the Demonic Flame space. Who would've thought that after a year, he managed to escape that hellish place!"

As they saw the man and woman appear in the sky, countless onlookers were astonished.
