A gift returned ten thousandfold: I am the number one licker in all realms!

Under the onslaught of thousands of blades ahead, the increasingly strained head of the Ding family could no longer hold on.

Finally, a sharp blade suddenly cleaved through the barrier formation that the Ding family head had painstakingly created.

The blade tore through the sky and struck the Ding family patriarch directly, instantly ripping apart his rune-covered garment.

The head of the Ding family was immediately horrified. The knife had just slashed right across his waist, and he couldn't help but turn to look at his waist.

He then discovered that blood was gushing out, and that his own body had been injured!

The head of the Ding family was shocked, his eyes widened, and his heart was filled with disbelief:

"No! This is absolutely impossible, absolutely impossible!"

Xu Yuntian merely sneered:

"Accept your fate, Patriarch Ding. Is this all the strength you have? You truly disappoint me!"

I thought that after decades of seclusion, my sword would finally be able to drink some fresh and delicious blood, but is the Southern Wilderness still just filled with these stinking fish and rotten shrimp?

When they saw the Ding family patriarch injured, countless Ding family elders below were also dumbfounded.

His eyes gradually turned to despair!

Before the war began, the Ding family had done everything in their power to devise various ways to defend against the threat from the Xu family.

They calculated everything, almost every single detail, but they just couldn't foresee it.

Xu Yuntian is not weaker than he was when he was young; on the contrary, he is stronger than before.

This instilled fear in the group of elders of the Ding family.

Faced with such absolute power and such an unreasonable and overwhelming force, they had no better options left.

In their eyes, there was only a look of despair that filled them with fear.

At this moment, the head of the Ding family shouted out:

"What are my allies, the Ding family, standing there for? They absolutely must stand up now!"

He himself is now certainly unable to withstand Xu Yuntian's attack, and the Ding family elders are also outmatched.

But the Ding family still had one last trump card: the allies they had agreed to before the war!

Several other families are staunch allies of the Ding family and have promised to stand with them after the war begins.

Under the heavens, the chief elder of the Ding family, upon hearing the call from the family head, immediately reacted and leaped into the air.

Upon arriving before the major allied families, he immediately began to speak:

"What are you all waiting for? This is a critical moment of life and death, and we must have you take action!"

If we join forces, we will surely be able to resist the Xu family and even destroy them in the end!

As you just saw, our family almost killed Xu Yuntian!

"Mountains of gold and silver, and boundless power are right in front of you, are you not tempted at all?"

Upon hearing what the Ding family head said, the allies who had initially made firm promises fell silent.

The heads of several allied families couldn't help but shake their heads and say:

"Chief Elder, it's not that we're heartless, but you've seen the current situation."

Xu Yuntian was practically living a second life, so invincible!

"Wouldn't helping you be like choosing your own death?"

"Yes, the fact that we haven't immediately severed ties with the Ding family is already more than enough!"

“That’s right, Chief Elder, please leave. Things are developing in a way that’s completely different from what you promised before, and we can’t just jump into a fire pit ourselves.”

The chief elder looked at the faces of these so-called allied families before him.

The chief elder of the Ding family's face instantly turned extremely ugly.

Are these people really that pragmatic? Yes, there's no such thing as unchanging friendship in this world!

The chief elder thought of these allied families, who had just been there, confidently patting their chests and declaring that they would definitely fight the Ding family to the very end.

At that moment, I felt a wave of nausea!

But now he has no choice but to directly break ties with these people.

Their patriarch is currently high in the heavens, and could be killed by Xu Yuntian at any moment.

There is no time to waste, and if the Ding family wants to survive, the only people they can rely on now are the elders of these families in front of them.

Thus, the chief elder of the Ding family was extremely helpless. With a gloomy face, he finally spoke:

"Clan leaders, I hope you can change your minds again."

If you are willing to help our Ding family overcome this difficulty, then we can offer you the treasures inside the ancient ruins behind our Ding family mountain.

You are free to go in and explore, and take whatever you want! As long as this matter is accomplished!

Those allied families were originally determined to keep their distance from the Ding family.

It had been agreed beforehand that no matter what the elders of the Ding family said when they came to persuade them, they would not be swayed.

But at this moment, when the chief elder of the Ding family mentioned the ancient ruins behind the Ding family mountain, the patriarchs of these allied families all changed their expressions.

His eyes revealed an expression of extreme hesitation.

One of the clan leaders couldn't help but widen his eyes, looking uncertainly at the chief elder of the Ding family before him, and asked:

"Chief Elder, were you serious about what you just said? This is no laughing matter."

“That’s right. Hasn’t your Ding family always regarded that ancient relic as some kind of priceless treasure? You’ve never allowed anyone from any other family to get close to it.”

"Yes, if you really want to give it up, you can't just say it with a few words. After all, these days, you really can't trust verbal promises!"

The chief elder sneered inwardly. These few treacherous scoundrels dared to say that words alone cannot be trusted.

If I had known this would happen, I shouldn't have believed that these bastards would become allies of the Ding family.

But at this moment, all he could do was force a smile.

Said:

"Rest assured, clan leaders, I mean what I say. For this, I am willing to sign a blood pact!"

After saying that, the chief elder did not hesitate and immediately put his finger in his mouth and bit it cleanly.

Then, his bitten finger emitted a blood-red light in the air, stimulated by spiritual energy!

Then the chief elder of the Ding family waved his fingers, moving them freely in the air, as if drawing a talisman.

After the talisman was drawn, it actually floated in the air and emitted an incredibly powerful crimson light.

Then, the chief elder of the Ding family said:

"Alright, I've already signed the blood pact!"

The blood pact that the chief elder just established was one that resonated with the heavens and earth.

Once such a promise is made, the Ding family's chief elder's promise must be fulfilled no matter what.

Otherwise, you will be punished by Heaven and Earth!

It is the most stringent promise among all the laws of heaven and earth, and very few people would make it.

The other allied families were also astonished by the Ding family's chief elder's great determination, and their expressions changed drastically.

Since a blood pact has already been established, the Ding family's chief elder must afterwards allow them to explore the ancient ruins in the back mountain.

Immediately, the faces of the allied families lit up with joy. There was indeed no need to hesitate any longer, and they all made their decisions immediately:

"Alright, Chief Elder, just for your heroic spirit and loyalty, how could we, your allied families, not do our best?"

Xu Yuntian did indeed say that he had lived a second life and had spent decades in seclusion comprehending the essence of the sword.

However, that was merely a case of borrowing someone else's power; his own inferior cultivation level could not be concealed!

“That’s right. Our families are all discerning people. We can see that Xu Yuntian is actually all bark and no bite, and not as powerful as he claims.”

"If our families join forces, defeating Xu Yuntian is not impossible!"

What the allied families said was true; he had just witnessed the great battle between the Ding and Xu families.

These families are still closely observing every move on the battlefield.

In particular, observing all of Xu Yuntian's movements, it can be seen that his swordsmanship has indeed improved even further than the peak level.

However, his cultivation level was actually declining.

Under these circumstances, with the balance of power shifting, it's debatable whether Xu Yuntian still holds the same dominant position as before.

Not to mention that the enemies he now faces are even more powerful.

Among these allied families, there are also experts at the Saint Realm.

Moreover, when the chief elder of the Ding family heard this, he merely gave a cold smile:

"These guys were just saying something like, 'The Xu family can't be a god of war,' and they didn't want to walk into a fire pit themselves."

To put it bluntly, the reward wasn't enough!

But at this moment, he didn't have the time to haggle with them.

As for agreeing to let them go to the back mountain of the Ding family, to explore the ancient ruins that have always been regarded as rare treasures, it was really a helpless move.

After all, if they didn't lend a hand, the Ding family would be wiped out immediately.

Even if we guard the ancient ruins, it will be meaningless by then.

However, the chief elder of the Ding family also had a slight smile on his lips at this moment.

He was a man who spent his life scheming against others, so how could he let himself be schemed against by these families in front of him?

At this moment, the chief elder of the Ding family smiled inwardly and said:

"Now that the blood pact is established, I really can't go back on my word and prevent them from entering our Ding family's ancient ruins. But there's a condition to this."

That means the Ding family's ancient ruins must still contain treasures by that time!

At this moment, the chief elder of the Ding family had already decided in his heart that he would use up all the treasures in the ancient ruins after this great battle ended.

At that time, regardless of whether the Ding family wins or not, they will not let others benefit.

Meanwhile, the families of several allies had already been energized by the promises made by the chief elder of the Ding family.

At this moment, I am even feeling excited and eager to join the battle.

Several clan leaders stepped forward, each of them possessing the strength of a Saint.
