Who Dares Not Come, I'll Kill Their Entire Family

The entire stage was drenched in blood, a scene of utter brutality.

The ground was littered with broken weapons.

All seven previous combatants were severely injured, lying on the ground and groaning in pain. Some had broken wrists, others had shoulders torn apart, and some had chunks of flesh missing from their chests.

Jiang Dao had unleashed the full essence of the Eagle Claw Art.

Besides him, no one else on the stage could stand.

This was even after he had intentionally held back. If he had struck vital points with his Eagle Claw Art, they would have been dead for sure.

"You... You're out of control!"

The Left Guardian, Guo Linyu, roared, his eyes bloodshot.

Fei Bin, the Wind-Thunder Palm, was his own nephew.

And Jiang Dao had just brutally killed him right before his eyes?

"Left Guardian, the Sect Leader already said earlier that swords and sabers have no eyes. Does the Left Guardian believe I did something wrong?"

Jiang Dao frowned.

"I called for a stop, why didn't you cease your attack?" Guo Linyu shouted furiously.

"But he hadn't surrendered yet. Moreover, he intended to kill me, so what's wrong with me killing him?" Jiang Dao stated.

"You... you..."

Guo Linyu gritted his teeth, his gaze icy.

"Enough, both of you, stop talking."

Suddenly, the Sect Leader, Fang Tianba, spoke with a heavy tone. He looked at Jiang Dao and said, "Jiang Dao, you have indeed won this martial arts competition. According to the rules, you can choose either the Flying Eagle Hall Master or the Black Tiger Hall Master. Which one do you wish to select?"

"Sect Leader, this person is a newcomer. His background hasn't been thoroughly investigated, and he hasn't achieved anything yet. He acted so viciously. If we let him become a Hall Master, I fear many below will not be convinced," Guo Linyu said coldly.

"We agreed to decide the position through combat. Does the Left Guardian wish for me to go back on my word?" Fang Tianba looked at Guo Linyu.

Guo Linyu's expression flickered slightly, and he quickly said, "I wouldn't dare!"

"Jiang Dao, which Hall Master do you choose?" Fang Tianba asked again.

"Your subordinate chooses Flying Eagle Hall!" Jiang Dao cupped his hands.

"Very well. Starting tomorrow, Flying Eagle Hall will be yours. As for the affairs of Flying Eagle Hall, someone will brief you tomorrow morning!" Fang Tianba declared, then stood up and left.

"Thank you, Sect Leader!" Jiang Dao immediately cupped his hands.

Guo Linyu glared hatefully at Jiang Dao, his heart filled with gloom, and he gritted his teeth.

Not only had Jiang Dao killed his painstakingly cultivated informant, 'Bearded Bandit' Guo Biao!

Now he had also killed his own nephew!

He had originally intended to support his nephew and let him take charge of Flying Eagle Hall, thereby expanding his influence and developing in secret. But now, all his plans were ruined.

"Damn you, even if you become the Flying Eagle Hall Master, I will make sure you die without a burial place."

Guo Linyu crushed the armrest of his chair and also stood up to leave.

Not far away, Yang Xu's face lit up with joy, and he quickly walked towards Jiang Dao.

"Dao'er, are you alright? Are you injured?"

"I'm fine."

Jiang Dao shook his head and walked off the stage. He looked deeply at Guo Linyu's retreating back and asked, "Who was that Fei Bin to Guo Linyu? Why was he so upset?"

Yang Xu's expression changed slightly. He quickly pulled Jiang Dao away and whispered, "It's said he was Guo Linyu's own nephew. Guo Linyu signed him up this time with the intention of grooming him and expanding his influence..."

"His own nephew."

Jiang Dao's eyes narrowed. "So, it's highly likely Guo Linyu will seek revenge on me?"

"Yes, but don't worry. He wouldn't dare cause trouble within the sect," Yang Xu said.

Jiang Dao's heart surged, and a killing intent arose.

If they dared to seek revenge on him, he would have to eliminate them first!

He didn't want to joke around with his family. If the other party decided to target his family, he wouldn't have time to regret it, so he could only nip the danger in the bud.

"Third Uncle, what's Guo Linyu's strength?" Jiang Dao asked casually.

"What do you want to do? The Left Guardian's power is profound, known as the Blazing Flame Sect's second strongest expert, unfathomable, second only to the Sect Leader. You... you're not thinking of making a move on the Left Guardian, are you?" Yang Xu was startled and quickly said.

"How could that be?" Jiang Dao smiled and said, "Let's go back!"

Killing intent brewed in his heart.

Guo Linyu's strength was second only to the Sect Leader. This meant that if he wanted to assassinate the other party, he couldn't do it easily for now. But if he could learn a few more martial arts in the Blazing Flame Sect and integrate them, he would definitely be able to crush the other party with ease.

The two mounted their swift horses and returned the way they came.

Night fell.

Lights flickered.

In a deep and secluded mansion.

Guo Linyu smashed four or five teacups fiercely, his face ashen and killing intent filling his heart. Seven or eight burly confidants stood before him, each showing anger.

"Don't worry, Left Guardian. Even if that Jiang Dao becomes the Hall Master, we won't make it easy for him. The Flying Eagle Hall manages such a large area. What's the use of him having strength? Many things can't be solved with just strength," one of the burly men sneered.

"That's right. If he wants to become the Hall Master smoothly, we brothers will create trouble for him. Let him know that managing a hall isn't about brute force. We can annoy him to death with trivial matters every day!" another burly man sneered.

"Benefactor, I bet that Jiang Dao will be sent back where he came from within half a month!" the third burly man said.

Guo Linyu took a deep breath, his face icy cold. "Brothers, you are all my confidants, whom I personally cultivated into the Flying Eagle Hall. The tragic death of Bin'er this time and the seizure of the Flying Eagle Hall Master position were my mistakes. But rest assured, if you work hard for me, I won't treat you poorly in the future!"

"You're too kind, Left Guardian!"

"Benefactor's kindness to us is as heavy as a mountain. We must repay it!" The seven or eight burly men all cupped their fists and shouted.

"Good. Starting tomorrow, it's up to all of you." Fei Bin said grimly.

In another direction.

A deep and secluded mansion.

Sect Leader Fang Tianba sat quietly on a rosewood chair, his eyes narrowed. Several people gathered around him, all of whom had appeared during the day.

"Everyone, what do you think of this Jiang Dao?" Fang Tianba asked, playing with two large iron balls in his hand.

"To have such strength at such a young age is truly incredible. Sect Leader, forgive my bluntness, but if Jiang Dao continues to cultivate at this speed, he might pose a threat to you in a few years!" one person said gravely.

Fang Tianba's eyes flashed, a cold glint passing through them.

"Right Guardian, what are your thoughts?" he asked calmly.

Beside him, the Right Guardian was a short and stout middle-aged man wearing a watermelon cap and official attire. He smiled slightly and said, "We can only say that Jiang Dao's appearance is both good and bad for the Sect Leader. All along, the Blazing Flame Sect has been complex in its factions, with internal strife. The Deputy Sect Leader remains neutral and detached, indifferent to worldly affairs. The Left Guardian's influence is growing, and he is ambitious, even cultivating countless experts in secret, gradually showing signs of replacing the Sect Leader. Now, with Jiang Dao's appearance, if he can be utilized well, he can be used to restrain the Left Guardian, slowly wearing down his strength. Then, after both of them are weakened, the Sect Leader can strike with thunderous force and eliminate them both effortlessly."

"Well said, 'effortlessly'!" Sect Leader Fang Tianba continuously rotated the two large iron balls in his hands, his eyes deep. "Now, I only hope that this Jiang Dao doesn't grow too fast. I don't want to kill a wolf only to invite a tiger!"

Crack!

The two large iron balls in his hands cracked as he casually squeezed them. The people in the room were stunned and horrified by the Sect Leader's display.

Is this... still a flesh and blood body?

The next morning.

Jiang Dao mounted his swift horse and, led by Yang Xu, headed towards the Flying Eagle Hall's headquarters.

"Dao'er, we're almost at Flying Eagle Hall. By the way, there are quite a few experts in Flying Eagle Hall who originally belonged to the Left Guardian. They were heavily trained by him before. If they find out you've offended the Left Guardian, they'll likely cause trouble for you behind your back. Just ignore them when that happens," Yang Xu said.

"Experts who originally belonged to the Left Guardian?" Jiang Dao frowned and replied, "I will!"

A flash of killing intent crossed his mind. If these people behaved themselves and stayed in line, he naturally wouldn't bother them. But if they dared to make any move, they shouldn't blame him for being ruthless.

The horses galloped, passing through the streets. Half an hour later, they finally arrived at the Flying Eagle Hall's entrance. However, upon entering, Jiang Dao's expression turned cold as he surveyed the surroundings. The vast hall was sparsely populated, with hardly anyone in sight. The few figures occasionally seen were all drunkenly lying in corners, motionless and without any regard for their appearance. Besides that, sounds of gambling could be heard from the depths of the courtyard.

"Big, it has to be big this time!" "Small, small, small, I'm betting on small!" "Place your bets, it's open, 4, 5, 6, big!"

Hearing the sounds, Yang Xu's expression changed slightly. Were these people gambling? Refusing to come out and welcome the new hall master?

"Where are your hall members? Hurry up and have them come out to welcome the new hall master!" Yang Xu quickly looked at a figure lying on his side and shouted.

That figure was burly, with a full beard, holding a wine bottle, reeking of alcohol, and looking disdainful as he picked his ear. "What new hall master? What are you talking about? Do you have the Guild Leader's letter of appointment? Let me see it!"

Pfft!

As soon as the words left his mouth, his head flew into the air, and blood splattered, drenching the people next to him. Those nearby, splashed by the blood, shivered. Their drunkenness vanished, replaced by cold sweat. They instantly sobered up, filled with terror.

Jiang Dao sheathed his long saber, his voice cold. "Gather everyone within half an incense stick's time. Anyone who dares not to come, I'll kill their entire family!"
