The Burial Mountain Range was located in the northwestern region of Central Plains. While many people in today's Central Plains might be unfamiliar with this area, to some elders of the ancient clans, its name still resonated like thunder.

This was the very battlefield where the war between the Hun Clan and the Xiao Clan erupted. That battle had once shaken the entire Central Plains with its devastation.

Deep within the mountain range lay an ancient battleground. The area was vast, and under normal circumstances, it was home to many magical beasts, making it a treacherous place rarely visited by humans.

However, today, the battlefield appeared eerily strange. The countless magical beasts that once roamed freely had completely disappeared without a trace. The vast battleground was devoid of even a single beast's shadow, as if they had foreseen the impending cataclysmic battle.

"Whoosh! Whoosh!"

In the silent mountains where even the roars of beasts had faded, a series of sharp wind-breaking sounds suddenly echoed.

Soon, figures surged from the horizon and, in just a few flashes, descended upon the ancient battleground.

"We've arrived."

Gu Yuan's feet lightly touched the ground as his gaze swept across the battlefield, now reduced to ruins. His expression carried a trace of complexity.

This was where the war between the Hun Clan and the Xiao Clan had begun all those years ago. Who would have thought that, thousands of years later, their battle against the Hun Clan would once again start here?

"Search the mountain range."

As soon as they landed, numerous experts from the three clans swiftly spread out, conducting a preliminary search of the area to prevent the Hun Clan from having set an ambush in advance.

"It seems the Hun Clan has yet to arrive," Yan Jin remarked as he stepped forward, glancing at the desolate battlefield.

Gu Yuan nodded slightly. Aside from some trembling magical beasts frightened by their oppressive presence, there was indeed no sign of the Hun Clan's forces.

"The Sky Mansion Alliance has arrived." Xiao Yan suddenly lifted his head, smiling toward the northern sky.

"The Yuan Manor forces have arrived as well," Mo Yu added as he, too, sensed something and looked toward the western horizon.

As the two of them spoke, the skies in the north and west indeed rang with the sound of wind being torn apart. Then, black shadows swept in like a tidal wave, their numbers no less than the three clans' combined forces.

"It seems Yuan Manor and the Sky Mansion Alliance have truly mobilized everything this time."

Seeing such a grand assembly, both Huo Jin and Lei Ying revealed traces of astonishment in their eyes.

While Yuan Manor and the Sky Mansion Alliance might be slightly inferior to the Yan and Lei Clans in terms of elite strength, their sheer number of experts had already reached a terrifying level.

"Hehe, it seems we did not arrive too late."

Under the gaze of many, the vast army swiftly arrived above the mountain range before dispersing and landing. Leading the Sky Mansion Alliance was naturally Yao Lao, followed closely by Xiao Chen, the Samll Pill Tower Patriarch, and other powerhouses.

On the Yuan Manor's side, at the forefront stood She Lao, followed by Xiao Yu, Cai Lin, Xiao Yixian, and other women closely connected to Mo Yu. Even Elder Shen Nong had joined Yuan Manor, having fully integrated into their ranks.

Meanwhile, the arrival of Zi Huo, Yao Ming, and Huang Tian sent waves of shock through the three clans. These were the heads of the supreme beast clans, and their allegiance to Yuan Manor spoke volumes about its terrifying strength and foundation.

With the main forces gathered, both sides naturally exchanged pleasantries. The Samll Pill Tower Patriarch and Elder Shen Nong were already somewhat familiar with the three clans, making the conversations flow with ease.

"Patriarch!"

The Sky Mansion Alliance members gathered around Xiao Yan, while the Yuan Manor forces naturally moved toward Mo Yu. At this moment, Zi Huo and the others stood behind Mo Yu, respectfully greeting him.

"Everything has been well within the manor, I presume?" Seeing so many familiar faces, Mo Yu couldn't help but feel a surge of pride and smiled warmly.

This was the empire he had built with his own hands!

"Hehe, rest assured. Other than the Hun Clan's elite forces, there are few in the entire continent who would dare challenge Yuan Manor now," She Lao chuckled.

With the incorporation of the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan, the Nine Serene Deep Ground Python Clan, and the Abyssal Lion Clan, coupled with Yuan Manor's own foundation, only Xiao Yan's Sky Mansion Alliance could rival them. Even the Lei and Yan Clans had no choice but to treat Yuan Manor as an equal.

"Good."

Seeing the high morale and invincible aura of his forces, Mo Yu nodded in satisfaction.

Yuan Manor was his life's work, and it would also be his foundation for conquering the Great Thousand World. It was something he would never allow to be lost!

As Mo Yu conversed with She Lao and the others, a delicate fragrance suddenly wafted toward him. Raising his head, he found Cai Lin's enchanting yet cold face before him.

Behind her, Xiao Yu, Qing Lin, and Xiao Yixian followed closely, all gazing at Mo Yu with a hint of discontent in their eyes.

Seeing Cai Lin's cold demeanor and the hint of blame in Xiao Yu and the others' eyes, Mo Yu rubbed his nose awkwardly and let out a dry chuckle.

"Sister Cai Lin, Sister Xiao Yu, Sister Xiao Yixian, and Little Qing Lin, we meet again. Have you all been well?"

Standing beside Mo Yu, Lei Fei'er looked at the approaching women, her beautiful eyes shimmering slightly before she smiled softly.

Hearing this, a faint smile also appeared on Cai Lin's cold face. She replied gently, "Mm, we've been fine. It's just that poor Yu'er and the others have been worrying and longing for a certain someone who never returns home."

At her words, Lei Fei'er covered her mouth and chuckled, while Mo Yu could only shake his head helplessly. It seemed that his prolonged absence had indeed left Cai Lin and the others rather displeased.

When Xiao Yu and the other women heard Cai Lin directly exposing their concerns, their cheeks flushed slightly. Their gazes toward Mo Yu carried a mix of reproach and grievance.

In response, Mo Yu decisively stepped forward, holding Cai Lin's delicate hand, gently pinching Qing Lin's charming face, hugging Xiao Yu tightly, and whispering intimately into Xiao Yixian's ear. Only after such affectionate gestures did the resentment in the women's eyes finally fade.

They were never truly angry at Mo Yu; they merely feared that their place in his heart had lessened. But after Mo Yu's affectionate gestures, all their dissatisfaction melted away, replaced by overflowing sweetness in their eyes.

Seeing this, Mo Yu finally breathed a sigh of relief. He had managed to pacify these little ancestors—otherwise, a full-blown "family crisis" might have erupted.

However, what Mo Yu failed to realize was that his simple actions had sparked waves of envy, jealousy, and resentment from the surrounding crowd, accompanied by a series of howls of anguish.

After all, Cai Lin, Qing Lin, and the others were among the continent's most stunning beauties. Even compared to noble heiresses like Lei Fei'er and Xun'er, they were in no way inferior. And now, Mo Yu had openly "teased" them in front of countless people—this was nothing short of blasphemy against their goddesses!

This pain was worse than death!

Not far away, Lei Dong twitched at the corner of his mouth before sighing. "This brother-in-law of mine is truly a romantic. I had only heard rumors before, but now I see that they were all true. Each of these women has an extraordinary background, no wonder even my sister can't keep them under control.

"Well, at least I can say this—my brother-in-law isn't just a cultivation genius, he's also a master in handling women. Maybe I should ask him for some pointers when I get the chance?"

As Lei Dong spoke, a trace of longing flickered in his eyes as he muttered to himself.

However, just as he was indulging in his fantasies, a loud "bang" suddenly echoed, and his head was struck by a heavy punch. Just as he was about to furiously seek out the culprit, he turned to see his own father, the Lei Clan's patriarch, Lei Ying, glaring at him with a look of utter disappointment.

"You unfilial son! If you had Mo Yu's talent and abilities, I would find you a hundred wives! But if you don't, then focus on your cultivation and stop thinking about such nonsense!" Lei Ying berated angrily.

Lei Dong's talent was already quite good. Even when Lei Ying was young, he hadn't been much stronger than his son. But comparing people only leads to frustration—next to Mo Yu, Lei Dong seemed utterly mediocre.

Therefore, Lei Ying had no objections to Mo Yu having such wives; such matters were all too common on the Dou Qi Continent. But seeing his own son trying to compare himself left him fuming with rage.

Absolutely disgraceful!

"Hehe, Father, don't be angry... I was just joking..." Lei Dong naturally had no courage to rebel against his father. He scratched his head and laughed awkwardly.

...

"Greedy man..."

Meanwhile, upon seeing Mo Yu's actions, Cai Lin's lips curled slightly, and her voice softened considerably. Though she was somewhat annoyed that Mo Yu had been gone for so long, she was still rational enough to understand that such feelings were natural for any woman.

"Alright, don't worry. Once this matter is settled, I will spend more time with all of you," Mo Yu said with a warm smile as he gazed into the affectionate eyes of the women around him.

"Mhm." Upon hearing this, Xiao Yu and the other women nodded obediently.

...

On the ancient battlefield, with the arrival of the Yuan Manor and the Sky Mansion Alliance, the mountain range became much livelier. Outside the mountains, many powerful experts from Central Plains had also been drawn here by the commotion.

However, after reaching the Burial Mountain Range, none of them dared to take another step forward. They could clearly sense the terrifying aura that had gathered within the mountain range. If they were to get caught in the crossfire, there would be no chance of survival.

After a brief interaction, both sides quickly fell into a state of vigilance, spreading out scouts to monitor the entire Burial Mountain Range. Any movement here would be reported to Mo Yu and the others immediately.

Time passed slowly as they waited. When the sun finally reached its zenith, Mo Yu, Xiao Yan, and Gu Yuan, who were sitting cross-legged on a massive rock, simultaneously opened their eyes. Their deep voices instantly made everyone tense up.

"They're here."

As soon as the words fell, layers of black mist surged in the sky above the mountains. The mist coiled and twisted, eventually forming a massive spatial passage. A sinister and overwhelming aura gushed forth like a tide.

The rolling black mist in the sky completely blocked out the sunlight, causing the temperature of the world to plummet instantly as a bone-chilling aura spread across the land.

"Hehe, it's been a long time since the Burial Mountain Range has been this lively."

Within the surging black mist, a figure slowly emerged—Hun Tiandi. His gaze swept over the assembled forces below, and a faint smile appeared on his face.

Behind him, Nihility Devouring Flame, the Four Demon Saints of the Hun Clan, and numerous other powerful figures materialized. It was evident that the Hun Clan understood the magnitude of today's battle, so they had mobilized a considerable force.

"Hun Tiandi, return the three clans' ancient jade at once, or we will raze your Hun Realm to the ground!" Lei Ying, the most hot-tempered of the group, stepped forward and shouted coldly upon seeing Hun Tiandi appear.

"Raze my Hun Realm? Heh, in this world, I doubt there's anyone capable of such a feat." Hun Tiandi chuckled dismissively at Lei Ying's threat and ignored him, shifting his gaze to Xiao Yan instead. In a calm voice, he asked, "So? Will you exchange the ancient jade for your father, or will you try to take him by force?"

"I want to see my father first!" Xiao Yan demanded.

Hearing this, Hun Tiandi glanced at Xiao Yan before waving his hand. The space behind him rippled, and the sound of clinking chains echoed through the air.

Moments later, a prison cage formed from black mist emerged in the sky. Within that cage sat a frail, elderly figure, tightly bound by numerous chains that slithered around him like venomous serpents.

As soon as the prison appeared, Mo Yu's gaze locked onto the elderly figure inside. A shadow fell over his face.

That figure was none other than Xiao Zhan, the patriach of the Xiao Clan who had once treated him well.

Regardless of whether it was the grudge for his grandfather's death or the torment Xiao Zhan had suffered, Mo Yu would never allow the Hun Clan to continue existing on the Dou Qi Continent!

"Hun Tiandi, mark my words—one day, I will annihilate the Hun Clan!"

At the same time, Xiao Yan's expression was filled with unbridled rage. His bloodshot eyes turned toward Hun Tiandi, his voice hoarse yet filled with murderous intent.

An unparalleled wave of soul power erupted from his body, surging outward in violent ripples. Instantly, the skies darkened with swirling storm clouds, and deafening thunder rumbled across the heavens.

"A Di Realm soul?!"

The moment this soul power burst forth, the experts of the Hun Clan stiffened in shock. They had not expected that in just half a month, Xiao Yan's soul power would advance to such an astounding level.

Within the prison, the aged figure wrapped in chains slowly lifted his head. His murky eyes locked onto the black-clad and silver-eyed youths hovering in midair, and his body suddenly froze.

Tears immediately welled up in his aged eyes, rolling down his cheeks as his hoarse, trembling voice choked with emotion.

"Yan'er... and Yu'er..."
