"Lin Family Head, no need to stand on ceremony."
"Lin Bai is a disciple of my Azure Cloud Sect, and also my personal disciple, so we are all family."
"Oh, right, that Wang Family or whatever it was. When I killed Wang Tian, I said the Wang Family had no need to exist."
"I let them hop around for two extra days. It is time to make good on that promise."
Feng Qingyang's words directly stunned everyone in the Lin Family.
The mighty Wang Family, one of the top powers—this young man before them had casually decided its day of death with a single sentence?
Just what kind of force was the Azure Cloud Sect? Could it be an overlord-level power?
"Sect Master Feng, the Wang Family has joined forces with the Bai Family. They have four True Person Realm experts in total. It would be safer to consider this carefully."
Their Lin Family only had two True Person Realm experts. The Wang Family and Bai Family each had two as well. The Three Great Clans jointly controlled Tianwu City, checking and balancing one another. No one knew what promise the Wang Family had made to the Bai Family for the two clans to actually join forces.
"Yes, yes, Sect Master Feng. The Wang Family is extremely cunning. We have suffered at their hands before."
"Father, there is no need to worry. The Azure Cloud Sect has experts as numerous as clouds. How could a petty Wang Family dare flaunt its skills before an expert?"
Having seen the wider world, Lin Bai was much calmer.
"My disciple is right. A petty Wang Family can be destroyed with a flick of the finger."
Seeing how confident this mysterious sect master was, Lin Zhan, the Lin Family Head, immediately rose to his feet.
"In that case, in my capacity as Lin Family Head, I declare that everyone in the Lin Family is willing to heed Sect Master Feng's commands."
"We are willing to heed Sect Master Feng's commands!"
Lin Zhan gave the order first, and the elders echoed him.
"There is no need for any of you to act."
"Ye Bai, make a trip to the Wang Family."
Feng Qingyang casually snapped his fingers, then gave the order upward.
"Yes, Sect Master!"
A middle-aged man's voice came from above, without leaking the slightest trace of aura.
Lin Zhan looked at Feng Qingyang, who was calmly drinking tea below, in shock. His eyes were now filled with reverence!
Just what kind of mighty being is Bai'er's master?
Lin Zhan himself was at the middle stage of the True Person Realm, yet he had not sensed anyone hiding in the shadows at all. That meant the other person's cultivation was far above his own!
Could it be... the Shattering Void Realm!
For such a powerful cultivator to still obey the other's commands showed just how terrifying he was!
A moment later.
The Wang Family.
The Wang Family's main hall was likewise filled with people.
"Wang Family Head, we agreed that once the Lin Family is destroyed, all of the Lin Family's resources will belong to our Bai Family."
"That is right, Bai Family Head. As long as we can destroy the Lin Family, everything will belong to you."
"That damned Lin Family dared kill Tian'er. I wish I could eat your flesh and sleep upon your skins!"
Wang Tian was his only son, and Wang Tian's talent was outstanding even among his peers. He had once personally boasted to the world:
"My son Wang Tian has Great Emperor Potential!"
"Bai Family Head, our last attack dealt the Lin Family a devastating blow. As long as our two families strike with all our strength this time, the Lin Family will certainly perish."
Inside the Wang Family's main hall, the Wang Family Head and Bai Family Head were discussing the specifics of destroying the Lin Family, unaware that their own deaths were at hand.
"All members of the Wang Family, get out and meet your deaths!"
A resounding voice rang out above the Wang Family.
"Who is it? Who dares be so arrogant!"
"What fool who does not value his life dares cause trouble at our Wang Family!"
The Wang Family disciples immediately flew into a rage. It had always been them bullying others—who dared bully them?
Whenever there was something they could not settle in the city, a simple word from them was enough to resolve it.
"My father is Wang Erhe!"
The Wang Family Head and the elders in the main hall were also enraged. They filed out one after another to see who had come to the Wang Family seeking death.
The moment they emerged, they saw Ye Bai in the air.
"Who is this nobody? You are courting death!"
The already pent-up Lin Family Head saw that a lone man dared come to the Wang Family and cause trouble, and immediately flew into a rage.
Seeing that they not only refused to surrender but even dared fight back, Ye Bai acted at once.
The terrifying cultivation of the peak Shattering Void Realm churned the winds and clouds until the heavens changed color.
Some of the Wang Family members with lower cultivation were instantly crushed to death by that overwhelming aura.
The Wang Family Head and elders were no better off, pressed down by the aura until they could not move.
"Wang Family Head, when did you offend such a powerful expert? If you want to die, do not drag my Bai Family down with you!"
The Bai Family members cried out in terror!
"Your Excellency, I do not recall ever offending you. Why are you attacking my Wang Family?"
The pale-faced Wang Family Head stammered.
"You offended someone you cannot afford to offend," Ye Bai said coldly. Letting them die understanding was not a bad thing.
Upon hearing this, the Bai Family members immediately said, "Wait, Senior! It was this damned Wang Family that offended you. We are from the Bai Family. Could you spare us? I am willing to offer all of our family property to you, Senior."
"Oh? The Bai Family?"
"Excellent, killing two birds with one stone! It saves me another trip."
As his words fell.
A terrifying giant hand descended from the sky, accompanied by a vast pressure that crushed everything below!
Boom!
The Wang Family was directly flattened to the ground.
Very quickly!
News of the Wang Family's destruction spread across the entire city in no time.
"Did you hear? The Wang Family, one of the top clans, was destroyed!"
"I just found out. They say the Wang Family offended a mysterious expert, and even the Bai Family was implicated. The Bai Family Head and elders were all wiped out. The Bai Family now exists in name only!"
Every teahouse and tavern in Tianwu City was discussing the matter.
When they recalled how the Wang Family and Bai Family had joined forces to attack the Lin Family, they all began to wonder whether the mysterious expert had been invited by the Lin Family.
Not long after, at the Lin Family.
Inside the Lin Family's main hall, Feng Qingyang was invited to the seat of honor.
They received news of the Wang Family's destruction immediately. All of them were shocked by the Azure Cloud Sect's terrifying might. A snap of the fingers had wiped out the Wang Family—it truly could be destroyed with a flick of the finger!
"Sect Master Feng, these are all the resources of the Wang Family and Bai Family. Please accept them."
Lin Zhan handed over a Space Ring as he spoke.
Now that the Wang Family and Bai Family had been destroyed, their Lin Family stood alone at the top of Tianwu City.
Feng Qingyang accepted it. No sect ever complained about having too many resources.
"Oh, right, Sect Master Feng, we have another request."
"Our Lin Family is willing to become an affiliated force of the Azure Cloud Sect. We hope Sect Master will permit it."
Lin Zhan and all the Lin Family elders cupped their hands toward Feng Qingyang.
Feng Qingyang agreed. Unlike those other clans, the Lin Family did not scheme against one another. They were united from top to bottom, and as a top power, they would not lower the Azure Cloud Sect's standing. Once Lin Bai grew stronger in the future, perhaps the Lin Family would become an imperial clan.
"Congratulations, Host, for completing the hidden mission: acquiring an affiliated force. Sect Points increased by one thousand."
"Huh? An unexpected surprise!"
"System, do I gain Sect Points for recruiting any force?"
"Of course. The system will assess the rank of the affiliated force and distribute the corresponding Sect Points. However, to prevent the Host from exploiting bugs, forces compelled to join will not count."
The system's single sentence shattered Feng Qingyang's thoughts.
"What a joke. Would I, a dignified sect master, coerce others?"
"I specialize in tempting people with benefits, all right!"
"Family Head, the Nian Family has sent people!"
