“That boy’s in the VIP Lounge on the second floor, fifth area. Watch him closely; we can’t let him leave alive.”
“Yes!”
With the True Essence realm cultivators in the lead, these people started to walk towards where Xiao Yun was.
“Are these the Yuan family’s people or the Qiu family’s people?” Xiao Yun could see everything that was happening in the Cloudsea Merchant Alliance through his spirit energy. As thee people rushed towards where he was, his gaze became cold. At the same time, he felt a chill within his heart.
The only one who knew he was here was Yuan Mo – was it him who had called these people?
“I hope it’s not the Yuan family.” Xiao Yun’s gaze became serious and it seemed as piercing as a knife. If it was the Yuan family, things would be troublesome.
The footsteps from outside were very fast, and very chaotic. This caused all of the serving ladies in the VIP Lounge to feel quite shocked and fearful. Before they could do anything, the door was kicked open and a few men rushed in.
One of the serving ladies managed to keep her cool and asked the people, “Who are you all?”
“None of your business,” a middle-aged man said as he walked into the VIP Lounge. This was a middle stage True Essence realm cultivator. His eyes were like those of an eagle’s and were extremely sharp and piercing. By his side, there were 2 men with early stage True Essence realm cultivation.
“You’re the Qiu family’s Qiu Chun, Lord Qiu.” The serving lady blinked as she recognised the person.
“Do you think you have the right to speak here?” Qiu Chun glared at the serving lady, and a powerful aura swept out form her. The beautiful lady’s face became pale, and her body trembled and she fell on a fur couch nearby.
“Get out,” Qiu Chun coldly said.
“Yes, yes.” The serving ladies hurriedly left, looking at the youth in worry. From how aggressive and overbearing these Qiu family’s people seemed, the situation was quite bad for this youth. This youth looked only 16 or 17-years-old, so would he be able to survive?
“The Qiu family’s people?” A calm smile appeared on Xiao Yun’s mouth, containing a hint of sinister intent. From that woman’s words, he had understood the situation. These people were from the Qiu family, and had come here to deal with him. From this, he knew that it was possible that Yuan Mo had sold him out.
“Could it be that the Yuan family and Qiu family have become allies?” Xiao Yun thought to himself and frowned.
“Are you Xiao Yun?” Qiu Chun asked Xiao Yun as he glared at him coldly.
“Are you the Qiu family’s people?” Xiao Yun narrowed his eyes, without showing a trace of fear, and merely looked at the people calmly.
“That’s right,” Qiu Chun replied before he motioned at the people beside him. A youth walked over and took out a portrait, comparing it to Xiao Yun.
“Your faces are about 80% similar; that’s right, you must be Xiao Yun,” Qiu Chun said in a severe tone after comparing the portrait and Xiao Yun.
“What, you want to attack me?” Xiao Yun coldly replied.
“Attack you? You killed our Qiu family’s people, and yet you still dared to come to the Imperial City? You’re quite daring!” Qiu Chun laughed as he vehemently replied.
“Killed your Qiu family’s people?” Xiao Yun’s gaze became cold as he said, “Your Qiu family’s people wanted to kill me; should I just have let them do whatever they wanted to? Could it be that only your Qiu family’s people are humans, and that everyone else is gra.s.s? I would still retaliate even if the emperor of heaven wanted to kill me, let alone the Qiu family.”
“What a reckless fool,” Qiu Chun coldly harrumphed. “How could the lives of our Qiu family’s people be compared to ants like you? Today, I’ll show you what it means be alive, but be worse off than dead.”
After saying this, Qiu Chun’s powerful aura exploded forth, his eyes locked onto Xiao Yun.
“I’m here to take the Heaven Origin Sect’s examination; aren’t you afraid of violating the Heaven Origin Sect’s rules?” Facing Qiu Chun’s might, Xiao Yun remained calm. His gaze was extremely piercing, and contained no discernible emotions as he looked at Qiu Chun.
“Heaven Origin Sect?” Qiu Chun coldly laughed, “Those rules are only for weaklings. Those who are strong are always above rules. Our Qiu family has people who are elders in the Heaven Origin Sect, and have important positions. Killing a nameless brat like you is like killing an ant; who would care?”
“Rules are only for weaklings?” Xiao Yun narrowed his eyes, a cold smile forming on his face.
Qiu Chun laughed, “It’s a pity that you’ve understood this too late.”
Xiao Yun raised his eyebrows, before giving an evil smile and calmly saying, “It’s not late at all… Because the weakling isn’t me.”
“Such arrogance!” Qiu Chun’s gaze became cold as he waved his hand and ordered, “Kill him!”
“Yes!”
The 2 True Essence realm cultivators by Qiu Chun’s sides stepped out, rushing towards Xiao Yun.
Origin Opening Palms!
Black Eagle Claws!
The 2 True Essence realm cultivators attacked together, their True Essence sweeping out like a river. Their might seemed to inundate their surroundings, with one of them creating a gigantic palm, as if it could cover the heavens and the earth; the other created a large claw, giving off a chilling light, and the sharp aura that it gave off seemed even more terrifying than a deadly blade.
The 2 people attacked from Xiao Yun’s left and right, which seemed impossible to evade, especially so for an Innate realm youth.
The Qiu family’s people coldly watched on with sinister gazes.
“A youth from an ordinary family wants to kill my Qiu family’s people?” Qiu Chun coldly laughed, as if he had already seen Xiao Yun’s corpse. No matter what someone from the Qiu family did, they were not people who a normal person could offend. In the Moonwind Kingdom, even the Imperial Clan had to treat the Qiu family with respect!
The combined might of the 2 people caused Xiao Yun’s body to tremble, his qi and blood tossing and turning.
If he faced these people before, it would have been difficult for Xiao Yun to defend against them. After all, his Spirit-Destroying Spear could only deal against a single person. However, since his adventures in the Skyfire Inheritor Palace, not only had his strength increased, but also the Heaven-Devouring Sparrow’s. Why would he need to fear these people?
“Scram!” Xiao Yun’s gaze became cold and he moved his hands, a violet fire flashing within them as he sent them towards the True Essence realm cultivator who had used the Origin Opening Palms. After this, an incredibly scorching heatwave blasted out onto his body.
Bang!
A violet light flashed as Xiao Yun’s palms met the True Essence realm cultivator’s palm.
“This boy dares to receive it head-on?” The Qiu family’s people were shocked. Wasn’t this simply seeking death?
“Wait.” Suddenly, that True Essence realm cultivator’s pupils contracted. As the palms collided, the boundless Essence Qi slammed into each other, causing ripples throughout the air. The Qiu family’s people stared, waiting for the youth to be knocked flying. At the same time, the other True Essence realm cultivator’s claw was rushing towards Xiao Yun’s heart.
With these 2 people attacking, the youth was bound to be killed instantly.
However…
After the palms collided, the True Essence realm cultivator felt his True Essence being incinerated, and soon, he felt as if his palm was pressing against a palm of flames, striking fear into his heart.
“What a scorching aura!” The True Essence realm hurriedly retreated, his palm almost incinerated into nothing.
Xiao Yun also retreated.
“The True Essence realm is indeed quite powerful. Even though my Violet Flame Martial Spirit has become stronger, without using powerful Martial Skills, I’ll be unable to gain the upper hand,” Xiao Yun thought to himself. He had done this to test his battle strength after both of his Martial Spirits had become stronger.
“He actually blocked it?” The Qiu family’s people were all unimaginably shocked, but then soon, they started to coldly laugh. So what if Xiao Yun blocked this attack? There was still another True Essence realm cultivator’s claw about to pierce through Xiao Yun’s heart.
“Yiya!”
As everyone watched this attack, the snow-white little beast jumped up and waved its little paws.
A white claw-like light tore through the air incredibly quickly. Before that True Essence realm cultivator could even see that light, he felt a pain in his wrist. His hand that he had been attacking with was actually torn off and fell on the ground, dying the ground red.
“Arghh!” The man screamed, staring ahead of him.
“Grrr!” The snow-white little beast was baring its fangs, giving off an air of bloodl.u.s.t.
“What’s going on?” The Qiu family’s people cried out, feeling incredibly confused. 2 True Essence realm cultivators couldn’t deal with this youth? What’s more, one of them had their hand severed; just what was happening? Everyone looked at each other in disbelief.
The Qiu family’s people deeply breathed in and looked at the youth. This sudden turn of events made it so that they could no longer look down on this youth.
Qiu Chun also stared in surprise because all of that had happened to quickly, like the striking of a lightning bolt. When everyone thought about what had just happened, they felt as if it had all been a dream.
Xiao Yun calmed down his surging qi and blood, then coldly gazed at Qiu Chun as he said, “I, Xiao Yun, don’t enjoy killing. However, if anyone acts against me, I’ll repay them 10 times over. I’ll give you all a chance to leave. Otherwise, don’t blame me for showing no mercy.”
“You want us to leave? You’re simply dreaming!” Qiu Chun said coldly, “Watch me take your dog life.”
Qiu Chun stepped out, releasing his middle stage True Essence realm cultivation. The entire VIP Lounge was filled with his powerful aura, and those who were near felt as if their blood vessels were going to explode. When he felt this aura, Xiao Yun’s gaze became incredibly cold.
“Since it’s like this, not one of you will leave today.” As Xiao Yun said this, a powerful wave of spirit energy swept out from between his eyebrows, dispelling Qiu Chun’s aura by more than half.
Qiu Chun’s gaze became cold as he swept out with his hands, roaring, “Mountain Suppressing Seal!”
A magic seal containing boundless might appeared, which caused the air to tremble. It seemed as if it could suppress entire mountains.
Buzz!
Under this magic seal, Xiao Yun felt his spirit energy tremble, unable to advance. Against absolute power, even his spirit energy felt as if it was going to collapse.
“Let’s see if you’ll die this time.” The Qiu family’s 2 other True Essence realm cultivators watched on coldly, preparing to attack.
Now that a middle stage True Essence realm cultivator had attacked, how could this youth defend against it? There was only a single step from the early stage of the True Essence realm to the middle stage of the True Essence realm, but the difference between them was incredibly vast!
