Urban God of War: The Live-in Son-in-law

```

Due to the special nature of his cultivation technique, Ye Feng had returned to his peak condition moments later and led his team swiftly towards the west.

This time, he wasn't moving slowly but flying at full speed, knowing all too well that if the forces of the Four Great Powers caught up, another fierce battle would likely ensue.

The sixty or so individuals were virtually Ye Feng's elite force; he had to ensure the safety of his subordinates as much as possible to prevent any unforeseen incidents.

However, after the recent skirmish with a small squad from the Yin-Yang Temple, none of his team had perished, which brought a sense of relief to Ye Feng. Moreover, through constant battling, his team kept gaining valuable experience, which was precisely why he had led them out of the secret realm in the first place.

An hour after Ye Feng and his team had departed, the very location where they had fought with the great powers of the Yin-Yang Temple suddenly saw the arrival of another group of people. All of them were dressed in black robes, and they did not seem to be from the Four Great Powers; rather, they appeared to belong to other forces from the Outer Battlefield.

There were over twenty individuals in total, with the weakest among them being in the Golden Core Realm, all led by a great power of the Yin-Yang Realm.

"Goodness, what a commotion. By the looks of this deep pit, the level of power behind this attack is immense. Surely an ordinary great power of the Yin-Yang Realm couldn't execute this," a strong individual of the Golden Core Realm at his peak remarked solemnly.

The one clad in a black robe, a great power from the Yin-Yang Realm, looked at the staggering deep pit for a long time without speaking.

The group landed in front of the pit and discovered that it was well over a hundred meters in diameter with a depth of tens of meters at the least, an impressive sight indeed.

After a long while, the Yin-Yang Realm great power finally spoke with a gravely serious tone, "The force exhibited here is beyond what the Yin-Yang Realm can produce. Even someone at the peak of their power couldn't achieve this feat."

The previous speaker from the Golden Core Realm blanched and blurted out, "Do you mean to say that this is the handiwork of an exceptional being from the Void Realm?"

The great power from the Yin-Yang Realm shook his head. "No, our world here is restricted by the space-time law, making it impossible for such exceptional beings from the Void Realm to appear. Even those from the alien space-time of the Void Realm would be immediately repulsed upon trying to enter here!"

Continuing, the Yin-Yang Realm great power went on without waiting for anyone else to speak, furrowing his grey brows, "So it is highly likely that this was done by someone of the Half-Step Void Realm or perhaps it was the hand of a supreme genius at the peak of the Yin-Yang Realm. When these top geniuses exert their full strength, their power can often approach that of the Half-Step Void."

A Golden Core Realm expert asked in a deep voice, "Does this mean that the creator of this huge pit was none other than that youngster Ye Feng? Does this imply that Ye Feng's strength is now comparable to a great power at the peak of the Yin-Yang Realm?"

This time, the Yin-Yang Realm great power fell silent for a long time, eventually sighing, "Whether it's him remains to be seen, but it seems very unlikely. After all, how long has that youngster been cultivating? It's not possible for him to have attained such a cultivation level so quickly. But irrespective of who it was, it's not something we can get involved in any longer. We can't continue the pursuit."

"Indeed, even if we caught up, with what we have at our disposal, it's unlikely we could contend with the adversary. Almost on par with an exceptional great power of the Half-Step Void Realm – that is simply too terrifying!" exclaimed the subordinates of the Golden Core Realm, nodding in agreement.

However, it was at that moment that a group of figures in red robes arrived.

"It's the people from the Vampire Divine Court!" declared the black-robed great power of the Yin-Yang Realm.

Subsequently, everyone turned their heads southward only to see over twenty strong Vampire Clan members in red robes descending.

The members of the Vampire Divine Court were all pale, so devoid of blood qi that their complexion was almost colorless. Their ears tended to be longer than average, and their noses were relatively straight, yet their faces appeared somewhat more fierce and intimidating.

The aura of these more than twenty Vampire Clan members was quite formidable as well, most of them of the Duke Golden Core Realm, led by a Divine Lord of the Yin-Yang Realm.

Similarly shocked by the sight of the enormous pit, the Vampire Clan found themselves speechless for a good while.

Meanwhile, the group of individuals in black robes became tense, with someone whispering, "What should we do now, my lord?"

The black-robed great power of the Yin-Yang Realm replied in a cold voice, "What's there to panic about? It's just a small squad from the Vampire Divine Court that has come, we're no weaker than them!"

Just then, the Divine Duke of the Vampire Clan in a golden red robe turned around, glanced at the black-robed individuals, and hummed dismissively, "So it's people from the Independent Cultivator Alliance of Xuanyuan Nation."

After this remark, the Vampire Divine Duke turned away, no longer paying attention to the group.

It turned out that these individuals in black robes were from the Independent Cultivator Alliance of Xuanyuan Nation, comprising loose cultivators and independent cultivator families, operating separately from Xuanyuan Hall. They did not follow orders from Xuanyuan Hall on the Outer Battlefield, acting independently instead.

In reality, there were many such power organizations on the Outer Battlefield, with other nations also harboring independent cultivator alliances. For example, those who defected from the Four Great Ancient Clans usually ended up joining an independent cultivator alliance, and there were a variety of mercenary groups as well.

Overall, the Outer Battlefield was dominated by the Four Great Powers because their collective strength was the strongest.

For the moment, the two groups stood across the pit without any communication, but neither initiated conflict. In situations like these, without direct conflict or enmity, it is common for neither side to attack since both have roughly equal overall strength and no certain assurance of victory over the other.

However, overall, the Vampire Divine Court's presence felt more arrogant and powerful, given that they hailed from one of the Four Great Powers, which naturally granted them a sense of superiority over a loose alliance like the other group.

"It looks like that Ye has long fled, and his aura has completely vanished; there's hardly any chance of continuing the pursuit," mused the Vampire Divine Duke.

"Then, Divine Lord, what should we do next?" asked a Vampire Duke.

The Vampire Divine Lord pondered for a while, then said, "If this deep pit was really created by that Ye fellow, then his combat power is truly terrifying. I admit I'm not his match, and even if we managed to catch up to him, we wouldn't be able to take him down. Currently, there are rumors that the Blood Sha Miasma in Sky Burial Valley is dissipating, and many powers are heading over there. Let's go and take a look too!"

"Everyone, follow me!" With a sweep of the Vampire Divine Lord's Great Hand, numerous members of the Blood Clan swiftly moved, heading towards the southwest direction and soon disappeared into the sky horizon.

"My lord, did I hear the Blood Clan folks mention that the Blood Sha Miasma in Sky Burial Valley seems to be dissipating? What are we waiting for? Let's hurry over and take a look, we might even be lucky enough to find a treasure or two!" said an expert of the Golden Core Realm from the Independent Cultivator Alliance.

The black-robed Great Power of the Yin-Yang Realm narrowed his eyes, and coldly said, "Originally, Sky Burial Valley was a forbidden land of the Outer Battlefield, a place where even Great Powers of the Yin-Yang Realm dare not venture lightly. Now that the Blood Sha Miasma that was spread there is dissipating, we definitely cannot miss this opportunity. Let's go too!"

After saying this, the strong members of the Independent Cultivator League also soared up, flying towards the southwest.

Meanwhile, Ye Feng, leading a team of more than sixty people, was heading westward. Sky Burial Valley was in the southwest direction. If he continued on his current path, he would definitely not reach Sky Burial Valley. Instead, he would be getting farther away from it.

Of course, since he had been in the secret realm and had not interacted with others, Ye Feng had heard of Sky Burial Valley but was unaware of the recent dissipation of the Blood Sha Miasma there, or otherwise, he certainly wouldn't have missed it.

Actually, the reason Ye Feng chose to travel westward was that he planned to head towards Ice Prison Valley in the west.

Ice Prison Valley was also a forbidden and deadly area of the Outer Battlefield; however, up to now, it was said that quite a number of people had already ventured inside. For instance, Bu Fengning, who, from what Ye Feng knew, had missed the last Martial Dao Conference precisely because he was delayed due to entering Ice Prison Valley.

As for what Bu Fengning ended up obtaining in Ice Prison Valley and whether he encountered fortuity, that remained unknown since he refused to mention anything about it after coming out.

Combining all this information, Ye Feng determined that although Ice Prison Valley was dangerous, its danger level was probably controllable to an extent. With his current cultivation strength, if Bu Fengning could leave alive, then he naturally wouldn't have a problem either.

Moreover, the overall strength of the current team was already very powerful. Common areas of the Outer Battlefield could no longer provide good training effects, so from the moment he stepped out of the secret realm, Ye Feng had set his sights on Ice Prison Valley.

As for other forbidden and deadly areas, Ye Feng had not yet considered them.

The team continued westward, and naturally, they encountered many demonic beasts and monsters along the way. Ye Feng never took action, nor did Xiao Chuanqi or any of the Four Great Legion Commanders. It was mainly Cao Tian and Chu Huaimin who took the lead in killing these beings.

Indeed, as Ye Feng had expected, although there were benefits from training in these common areas, the effects were not significant. However, he could not let the team split up and scatter, given the current unstable situation, where various powers were turning their attention towards them. If they split up to train, they might be defeated individually, which could result in losses outweighing the gains.

Over the next three days, the team did not encounter any pursuit or encirclement by the Four Great Powers. Occasionally, they came across members of the Independent Cultivator Alliance and various mercenary groups, but upon witnessing the formidable strength of Ye Feng's team, they wisely chose to avoid them, and Ye Feng, of course, did not create trouble for them without reason.

In fact, along the way, when Ye Feng saw numerous independent cultivators fall into traps, he did not hesitate to help, which made many of them very grateful.

On the fourth day of traveling, the team surprisingly arrived at a city, an ancient city that had collapsed almost to the point where only its general outline remained.

The city did not look too large, empty and without signs of life. However, at that moment, Ye Feng suddenly sensed several powerful presences.

The presences were not above in the city but came from under the ground!

"Everyone stop!" Ye Feng immediately waved his hand, and the team of more than sixty people instantly halted without making any noise, because they knew their master would not issue such an order without reason. There must be something he had discovered.

"My lord, is there something strange about this city?" asked a restless Sima Zhantian through telepathy.

"There's nothing strange about the city, but there is something strange under the ground!" Ye Feng replied through telepathy.

"Something strange under the ground?" Sima Zhantian's expression changed.

Without further explanation, Ye Feng looked back at the team, feeling it was somewhat inappropriate to bring so many people into the city's underground. After all, this was the Outer Battlefield, and the nature of what was below was still uncertain.

Even Ye Feng's spiritual power could not penetrate the city to explore the underground, as if something was blocking his spiritual power, making him even more certain that this city, which looked dilapidated on the surface, was definitely not simple!

"Xiao Chuanqi, Gai Jiuyou, stay above with the team; everyone else, follow me down. Cao Tian and Chu Huaimin, come with me!" Ye Feng made a decision and issued his command.

Because Xiao Chuanqi and Gai Jiuyou were more experienced and steady, and in addition to himself had the highest cultivation battle power, they could handle sudden situations to some extent even if something unexpected happened.

"As you command, my lord!" Xiao Chuanqi and Gai Jiuyou, although curious about what was beneath the city, had no doubts about Ye Feng's orders and chose to comply immediately.

"You wait on the outskirts of the city until I come out, and keep in touch at all times!"

Having said this, Ye Feng then took Hong Qingyan, Yu Feiyu, Sima Zhantian, Leng Wuming, and also Cao Tian and Chu Huaimin, and they darted into the city.
