Chapter 253 - Clansmen"Cough cough, you dare to make enemies with our three great sects, do you know the consequences!?"
Cao Mao lay paralyzed on the ground, pain written all over his face. Blood dripped from his mouth as he stared at Xiang Yun in shock and fury."Hehe, tell me, what are the consequences?" With the Blue Profound Sword in hand, Xiang Yun coldly laughed as he looked at Cao Mao.
"Humph, there are several Yellow Cloud Elders and even half-step Mystic Cloud experts in the three great sects. Don"t think that just because you"re a martial pract.i.tioner of the Yellow Cloud Realm you can do whatever you want. If the experts of the three great sects were to make a move, they would definitely teach you how to escape."
"That powerful?" Xiang Yun pretended to be shocked.
Seeing the fear on Xiang Yun"s face, Cao Mao"s heart was at ease. He turned around and threatened."Hmph, that"s only natural. If you give up today and leave some cloud crystals behind to apologize, then this matter will be put to rest. If you are unwilling, then when the elders of our sect capture you will lose your life!"
"This …" Xiang Yun revealed a hesitant expression, as if he was at a loss as to whether he should follow Cao Mao"s instructions. In the end, he seemed to have made up his mind and walked up to Cao Mao.
"Hehe, a wise man knows what to do. Don"t regret your actions."
Cao Mao warned him coldly. At the same time, he was laughing coldly in his heart. By the time Senior Brother Duan caught up, it would be too late for you to kowtow and admit your mistake!
At this moment, Xiang Yun seemed to have already made a decision. He looked at Cao Mao, an apologetic expression on his face."In that case, I"ll apologize to you, brother Cao."
Cao Mao"s face immediately lit up with pride. Indeed, he was a coward, frightened to the point of not daring to make a move with just a few words. He even wanted to apologize to himself, then coughed dryly and extended a hand to support himself on the ground as he slowly stood up, looking towards Xiang Yun in front of him.
"Hehe, then apologize properly. My brothers and I will see if you are sincere or not."
The apologetic smile on Xiang Yun"s face grew even more sincere. "My apologies, naturally, are sincere!"
Just as he finished speaking, Xiang Yun stomped his foot on the ground and raised his knee, slamming it down like a savage dragon. Cao Mao, who had just gotten up, had a lower abdomen area at his dantian!
"Bam!"With a loud bang, Cao Mao"s ma.s.sive body was suddenly sent flying high into the air like a rubber ball!
The moment his body flew up into the air, the crowd clearly heard a "puff" sound, like the sound of air being deflated by a balloon.
With his dantian shattered, the cloud energy leaked out!The moment Cao Mao landed on the ground, everyone"s gazes turned from playful to dazed. The change was so sudden that they didn"t even have time to react. Cao Mao"s dantian and cultivation base had already been destroyed!
Cao Mao slumped to the ground. His face contorted in pain as his eyes glazed over. He clutched his stomach as he stared stupidly at Xiang Yun!
"Why!"
At this moment, Xiang Yun"s expression was frighteningly cold. He glared at Cao Mao, his lips curving into a smile. "This is my apology!"
Apologizing to the cripple"s cultivation base was indeed sincere, but it was sincere. He didn"t want to settle the matter peacefully!
Xiang Yun once again raised his head and swept his gaze over the crowd, his tone icy.
"Whoever wants to leave today, leave behind five cloud crystals or leave behind other treasures, or else you"ll all die!"To return the favor, Xiang Yun naturally did not covet these people"s spoils, but he was definitely not willing to let these sc.u.m off lightly.
All of a sudden, the disciples of the three major sects looked at each other in dismay and fear! If he dared to cripple Cao Mao, what else could he not do?
Even Du Erniang"s face changed. She knew that she had met a fiend who wasn"t afraid of anything. However, since she was asked to obediently take out the cloud crystal, she naturally wouldn"t do so.
Holding onto a sliver of hope, Du Erniang stealthily lowered her collar, revealing an awkward expression as she blinked at Xiang Yun.
"Little brother, can"t you spare us for the sake of our three sects?"
"If little brother can stop, then I will definitely sincerely pay my respects in the future. If little brother thinks highly of me, then how about I let you deal with me tonight?"
Du Erniang"s expression was moving, her tone gentle and charming, full of seduction.
As she spoke, she drew closer and was already in front of Xiang Yun. Not more than a few feet away, Second Mother Du moved her head and walked without stopping. In the end, she crashed into Xiang Yun"s embrace, exposing her chest full of tender white skin!
However, just as she took a step forward, that huge and heavy black greatsword appeared like a ghost, pressing down on her shoulders and pressing down on her neck!"It seems like you still haven"t learned your lesson!" Xiang Yun"s expression was ice-cold as he coldly replied.
As for Du Erniang, her expression froze and her body stiffened. In her palm, there was a red and a green ball of qi. Before she could release it, a fierce gust of wind shot straight towards Du Erniang"s dantian!
"You!"
Seeing Xiang Yun suddenly explode without the slightest bit of hesitation, a chill filled Du Erniang"s heart as she instantly shot backwards.
However, how could her speed compare to Xiang Yun"s? She immediately felt that fist wind was like lightning, carrying with it an extremely thick b.l.o.o.d.y infernal energy that a.s.saulted her, causing all the hairs on her body to stand on end!
Xiang Yun"s fist was about to land on Du Erniang"s dantian. He wanted to make her follow in Cao Mao"s footsteps and lose her cultivation.
Du Erniang gritted her teeth and threw the ball of red and green gas into her hands. Suddenly, a strange whistling sound came from her mouth.
Xiang Yun"s fist filled with energy, instantly dispersing the two b.a.l.l.s of colored energy. However, just as his fist was about to hit Du Erniang"s dantian …Suddenly, from the gap between Du Erniang"s b.r.e.a.s.t.s, a multicolored little snake shot out like lightning towards Xiang Yun"s neck with its mouth wide open!
Such a sudden attack was really hard to guard against. With the help of this skill, Du Chenniang had even successfully killed an early stage Yellow Cloud Realm expert in a sneak attack, robbing him of all his treasures.
Seeing that the distance between him and Xiang Yun was less than a foot, and that he was not prepared, Du Erniang could already foresee the outcome of Xiang Yun dying from being bitten by a venomous snake!
However, when she saw Xiang Yun"s figure suddenly become illusory, the serpent"s mouth biting into the afterimage, Du Erniang"s expression once again became extremely ugly!
Xiang Yun"s speed was simply too fast. In that moment, he had suddenly used the Myriad Transformations Divine Art, dodging instantly. This was a sudden sneak attack by a venomous snake!
Du Erniang knew that the situation was bad and immediately tried to retract the venomous snake. However, a tiger"s roar rang out in the air, and Xiang Yun had already attacked like lightning. Tiger Claw Jue Hu had grabbed onto that thumb-sized snake!"Ah!"
Seeing the little snake being s.n.a.t.c.hed away by Xiang Yun, Du Erniang immediately cried out in alarm as she anxiously shouted, "Don"t hurt my snake treasure!"
This little snake was Du Erniang, a spirit beast refined with the sect"s secret technique. It was connected to its master and was Du Erniang"s life saving treasure. It used a large amount of spiritual medicine and the blood of living people.
Thus, when she saw Xiang Yun grab hold of it, Du Erniang panicked and lost all sense of propriety.However, Xiang Yun seemed to have not heard Du Erniang"s cries. He looked at the struggling seven-colored little snake in his hand, his eyes flashing coldly. Astral qi burst forth from his fingertips as he pinched the snake"s seven inches!
"Crack!"
With a crisp sound, the body of the struggling little snake instantly stiffened and became limp.
"You!" Du Erniang"s eyes widened as she saw this scene. She screamed at Xiang Yun like a madman!"Smelly brat, our three great sects will not let you get away with this. We will skin you alive and pull out tendons, cut your eyes and tongue, and grind your bones into pieces!"
Facing the threat of Du Erniang, Xiang Yun only sneered, "It"s only just three unranked bandit"s nests. For you guys to flaunt yourselves like this, you really don"t know the meaning of the word!"
"Hahahaha, brat! How arrogant!"
At this time, from the southeast direction of the Snow Dragon Peak, a burst of unbridled laughter came from afar.
Cao Mao, who was originally dispirited on the ground, had both hands covering his stomach, but when he heard this sound, his eyes immediately revealed incomparable excitement!The disciples of the three great sects all had expressions of great joy on their faces. They turned around to look and saw the path up the mountain in the distance.
A yellow-robed figure suddenly leaped a hundred feet into the air. After his body landed on the ground, he flew towards everyone like a yellow long arc. In just a few blinks of an eye, he appeared in front of everyone!
"Senior Brother Duan, you"ve finally come!"
When Cao Mao"s group of seven or eight people saw this person, they all revealed expressions of respect and excitement. They all called him Senior Brother Duan!
This Senior Brother Duan"s figure was not considered tall, and he appeared to be in his early thirties. He wore a long yellow robe, and on his back was a sheathless golden long blade. His sharp gaze and restrained aura made him seem like a person with high cultivation.The Snow Dragon Sect was one of the four major sects in the Silver Moon Mountain Range. Even though it had been looted by the other three sects, there were still many hidden treasures.
The Longsong Sect, the Rainbow Sect, and the Poison Dragon Sect, these three powerful sects, planned to keep the remaining treasures for themselves.Thus, they sent their sect"s disciples to search together. Of course, the so-called "search" also included highway robberies and murder to steal their goods.
They did not dare to do it so brazenly. Every time they sent a disciple, they would send a Yellow Cloud Realm expert to guard the area. This was in case something unexpected happened and someone tried to steal the treasure.
This person was also a third generation disciple of the Rainbow Sect. However, his talent far surpa.s.sed Cao Mao"s. One year ago, he had successfully broken through to the Yellow Cloud Realm, coupled with a set of exquisite blade techniques.
Duan Xi was the undisputed number one disciple among the three generation disciples of the Rainbow Sect. He was also the hottest person among them all. He was the candidate for the new Elder of the Rainbow Sect.
The moment Duan Xi arrived in front of everyone, he first glanced coldly at Xiang Yun, then turned his head to look at Cao Mao, who was curled up on the ground.Looking at the dispirited Cao Mao on the ground, Duan Xi"s brow furrowed. He walked up to Cao Mao, squatted down, and placed his hand on Cao Mao"s pulse.
In the blink of an eye, Duan Xi"s face changed!"Your Dantian has been crippled!"
Not only were Cao Mao and Duan Xi fellow disciples of the same sect, but they were also direct disciples of the Grand Elder of the Rainbow Sect, Yu Taihong. They were on good terms with each other.Cao Mao"s face was filled with grief the moment he saw his senior brother ask questions. He glared hatefully at Xiang Yun. "Senior brother, it was him. He was the one who crippled my dantian. You must avenge me!"
At this moment, Du Erniang was also gnashing her teeth as she reminded, "Senior Brother Duan, this person"s cultivation isn"t low. I"m afraid he"s also a Yellow Cloud Realm expert. You should be more careful."
"Heh heh."Duan Xun laughed coldly as he stood up, no longer paying any attention to the rest of them as he walked step by step towards Xiang Yun. When he was ten steps away from Xiang Yun, he slowly came to a stop!
"Brat, you were the one who spoke so arrogantly just now. You didn"t even put us three big sects in your eyes, and now you dare to destroy my junior brother"s dantian?" Duan Xi"s expression was cold and his aura was overbearing.
Towards this, Xiang Yun only pursed his lips as he laughed, "Is your intelligence lacking, or is there a problem with your brain? Do you still need to ask such an obvious question again?"
