Chapter 551 Outbreak

“Sir, the third and fourth generations of our family have returned. Those of the fifth generation who are still training out there were told to find a hiding spot and only come back when everything settles,” a middle-aged man reported.

He was of the second generation of the Tang family, the cornerstone generation.

As for the third and fourth generations, they were still young; they represented the future of the Tang family.

As for the fifth generation, they were even younger. They were still out there, experiencing the world. They were the seeds of the Tang family.

A middle-aged man sitting on a chair nodded after listening to the report. The man appeared sickly and his hair was turning gray. It seemed that he was still recovering from a grave illness.

“If we can survive this, the Tang family will be reborn, becoming even stronger than ever before!” The man stood up. A rosy color climbed to his cheeks, making him look a bit healthier. However, everyone was able to tell that he was merely using his astral powers to keep up appearances.

“The Tang family has a history of eight hundred years and I am currently in charge.

“During those glorious eight hundred years, we have had two legendary battle pet warriors and 72 titled battle pet warriors!

“We’ve fought many battles, hunted beast kings and slain hundreds of ninth-rank beasts. We fought for the Yedou Base City and we’ve sent help to more than a dozen base cities to protect them from beast strikes!”

“We have never escaped from any battle and we never lost one!”

“The Situ family and the Wang family are asking for the moon if they think they can cannibalize us because I got hurt during cultivation!” The man addressed the room vigorously, with bright piercing eyes, “The Tang family will not fall and will not lose. The only ones who can defeat us are basically ourselves!”

The people in the room were inspired by that resounding declaration!

They had never lost a battle!

The glory of the Tang family will not end!

Eight hundred years the Tang family had strived. Some dynasties would not even last that long. “We’ve heard from our sources that the Situ family and the Tang family will get to the Yedou Base City overnight to strike us!”

The family head, Tang Linzhan, gave a once over at the room as he slowly took his seat. “I will try my best to recover in the next three days. I will let your future family head, Tang Ruyu, take care of all arrangements and plans during the next three days!”

Many people turned their eyes to focus on a

girl.

She was but eighteen or nineteen years of age. Young as she was, she could keep a cold appearance and calmness in such a grave situation.

Many people were aware that the girl was their future leader and she had earned their recognition and trust with her abilities. The bond of blood was not the only standard when determining the future family head; the candidate had to be equipped with excellent abilities.

There was no doubt that of the fourth generation, Tang Ruyu was the most talented one!

Of all the past geniuses and talents of the Tang family, Tang Ruyu was the more outstanding one as well!

She had become a master battle pet warrior when she was merely eighteen years old.

She had overpowered most of the younger generation; not even the family elders questioned her strength. Compared to Tang Ruyu, their children didn’t even come close.

Even the students learning in the best academy of the Subcontinent District would merely be at the seventh rank when they were eighteen.

Those who were at the eighth rank at such a young age would be considered celebrity students in the academy!

Tang Ruyu also excelled in planning and strategy! She had been entrusted with the mission of leading the family at a critical and difficult moment. Some were worried but no one opposed having her take the lead.

The elders had no issue with that at all. They were aware that, while Tang Ruyu was the nominal leader, she was just carrying out orders from the sly fox, Tang Zhanlin.

“Yes, sir!”

Tang Ruyu stood up. Her voice was neither humble nor pushy.

Tang Zhanlin nodded. “I’ve told the mayor to keep the status quo in the base city and try not to alert the enemies for the time being. We shall be adequately prepared in the next three days. I’m going to show the world that the Tang family will not fall victim of bullying, even without legendary battle pet warriors!”

“The Tang family will prevail!” people chanted vigorously.

Even without legendary battle pet warriors, the Tang family was still one of the four ancient families.

“We will defeat all those who dare invade our territory…” Tang Ruyu thus claimed.

That night, a secret meeting was held.

To make arrangements for the next three days.

After the meeting, some elders escorted Tang Linzhan to a secret cultivation location of the Tang family. “Sir, will the Situ family and the Wang family suspect anything if we issue the notice so quickly?” “I mean to have them suspect things, suspecting that I’ve deliberately spread intel to them through their ‘informants’. They may change their strategies. While our sources of information within those families are concealed well, there’s no telling if they would later be exposed. Maybe the two families have also fed us information purposefully.”

“That is true. Otherwise, it would be unlikely for us to know a strike that is going to happen three days later.”

“I wonder if they’re going to strike earlier, since they’re altering their plans.”

“Hard to tell. We shall see.”

Some elders chatted and parted ways later.

Two days went by.

On the night two days after, a large number of flames suddenly appeared outside the Yedou Base City, illuminating the night sky. “Charge!!”

Many people jumped out from underground, outside the north gate of the Yedou Base City. They used pets of the stone family to tunnel their way directly to the city gate. The guards immediately sounded the alarm, right after the initial stage of shock because of the sudden invasion.

Soon after the alarm, the formerly closed gate was opened. Suddenly, chaos descended near the guards on the city wall. They began to fight each other and some were killed instantly.

“We have moles among us!!” a person shouted miserably.

The north gate of the Yedou Base City had been breached. Many people quickly found their way through the door and into the city. Some titled battle pet warriors flew across the wall. There had to be more than a hundred of them!

People would be startled if they ever saw this!

Titled battle pet warriors were second only to legendary battle pet warriors, and yet, more than a hundred were breaching the base city. How shocking!

They charged toward the Tang family compound as they entered the Yedou Base City through the gate.

Along the way, their battle pets stomped and destroyed the many buildings and stores. Some residents lost their lives in their sleep and some were crushed to death by their fallen houses.

The battle pet warriors didn’t care about those residents at all. As far as they were concerned, the people who had no fighting abilities were puny insects who had nothing to do with them.

“Charge!!” The shouts and bellows were heard all across the Yedou Base City.

Countless battle pet warriors swarmed into the Yedou Base City, pressing toward the Tang family compound.

Soon, many people were gathered outside the Tang family compound. Several fireballs were discharged into the Tang family estate. However, there was a large shield over the compound that fended off the fireballs. Many disciples had ready themselves inside the Tang territory. They were armed to the teeth, ready for battle.

“Listen up, members of the Situ family, let’s wipe out the Tang family!” a man shouted and a dragon snarled after him. Many titled battle pet warriors summoned their battle pets and descended over the Tang family compound.
