Hong Tianxiao Died All Over the Ground
The alluring beauty above chased after the old man with her sword, while Xiao Yuan below came to Shen Yun's side and took the Storage Ring off his finger.
"Old man, you're quite good at hiding!"
Under Xiao Yuan's soul power monitoring, a strand of soul power was rapidly escaping from underground.
However, Xiao Yuan's soul power has now reached the level of Seventh Grade Alchemist, so it is obviously impossible for Shen Yun to hide this from Xiao Yuan.
The moment he finished speaking, Xiao Yuan aimed at the direction where Shen Yun's soul had escaped and made a grasping motion downwards.
An invisible spiritual force transformed into a giant hand, directly grabbing Shen Yun's soul back.
"Elder Shen is quite cunning, abandoning his physical body, but a wisp of his soul escaped. What a pity."
Xiao Yuan smiled as he looked at the illusory soul and said softly.
"Xiao Yuan, don't kill me. We can talk this over. You don't want to offend the Wind and Thunder Pavilion like this, do you?"
His soul was trapped, and then transformed into Shen Yun's illusory face. At this moment, there was a hint of real fear in his eyes. If Xiao Yuan destroyed this wisp of his soul, he would be truly finished.
"You think you're so tough? You want to drag me back to the Wind and Thunder Pavilion?"
Xiao Yuan sneered.
"You little bastard, the Wind and Thunder Pavilion will not let you get away with this. Just wait to die!"
Sensing Xiao Yuan's murderous intent, Shen Yun immediately cursed venomously.
"It's okay, next time we meet, you'll be the one dealing with them!"
Xiao Yuan's smile was somewhat eerie. A dazzling orange-red flame shot out from his palm, enveloping Shen Yun's soul. Then, Xiao Yuan took out a jade bottle and put it inside.
Meanwhile, Medusa was very annoyed.
First of all, she definitely didn't come out because she was jealous or to vent her emotions on that unlucky guy.
Secondly, why is it that Xiao Yuan can flirt with women wherever he goes?
Then, I have to come out and help him fight his enemies? Also, why is it that even with his strength sealed by the Serpent Sealing Technique, this despicable guy can still kill Dou Zong level experts so easily? Does that mean I'm no threat to him at all? Does he see me as a clown?
Finally, if she didn't ask him for help, would he really not help? How despicable! The more Medusa thought about it, the angrier she became, and her actions became increasingly ruthless, showing a kind of madness where she only attacked and never defended.
Crazy woman! In contrast, Hong Tianxiao was increasingly terrified.
This glamorous woman in front of him is simply insane! The key is that she's an insane woman whose strength is no less than his, and whose fighting power is even stronger!
If this keeps going, I'll die at the hands of this crazy woman sooner or later!
Hong Tianxiao wasn't stupid. If other family members died, so be it, but if he died too, not only would the Hong Clan have no chance to establish itself in Tianbei City, but there was also a risk of extermination!
Taking advantage of the distance created by the clash, he quickly said, "I can forgive and forget what happened today. I will immediately take the Hong Clan and leave Tianbei City. Please, my friend, stop!"
"You think we can just stop fighting like that? I don't make friends with humans!"
Medusa charged forward with a cold expression and murderous intent, launching another fierce attack.
"You forced me to do this!"
Hong Tianxiao's face darkened upon hearing this. This woman and the young man in white had a close relationship. If he could kill him, he would surely regret it for the rest of his life!
Hong Tianxiao's body trembled, and he began to prepare his trump card Dou Technique.
But then, Hong Tianxiao suddenly felt a chill down his spine and instinctively flinched.
Immediately afterwards, a thin line as dazzling as sunlight pierced straight through his right chest.
Hong Tianxiao turned his head and saw Xiao Yuan holding a blue longsword.
How could such a fierce Dou Technique be made so silently?
Looking at Hong Tianxiao, whose right chest had been cut open, Xiao Yuan snapped his fingers.
The next moment, orange-red flames appeared on Hong Tianxiao's chest without warning.
What is this thing?! Hong Tianxiao's face suddenly turned pale, and then white smoke rose from his head, and his body trembled violently.
At this moment, Medusa coldly charged forward with her sword, her seven-colored sword light flying everywhere, leaving Hong Tianxiao dead all over the place.
Seeing Medusa's ruthless methods, the Han Clan and the onlookers below felt a chill in their hearts.
What a terrifying woman!
"Uh, Your Majesty."
Xiao Yuan, weak in energy, flew over with an awkward smile, trying to calm the glamorous beauty down.
"Hmph! Even without your help, I can still kill that old bastard. Go find your senior sister!"
After saying this, a flash of seven-colored light appeared, and Medusa's figure disappeared.
"Well"
As the aura of Medusa gradually faded away, Xiao Yuan shook his head helplessly, then took out Qi Recovery Pill from his Storage Ring, swallowed it, and refined it.
The "Wind Extremes, Sunset Meteor Kill" that Xiao Yuan just unleashed was a burst of Dou Qi from his five Qi Mansion, compressed and released in one go. Because he didn't absorb any of the energy from heaven and earth, it didn't cause any energy fluctuations. In addition, Xiao Yuan's mastery of Space Power allowed him to strike out silently.
But Hong Tianxiao was alert and reacted quickly enough that he wasn't killed by Xiao Yuan's sword.
Having exhausted all his Dou Qi, Xiao Yuan would have fallen long ago if it were before, but now that he has mastered the Space Power, he can stabilize his body in the air even without using Douqi Transformation Wings, even at the Dou Wang level.
Whoosh! Han Yue over and, seeing Xiao Yuan's pale face, kindly reached out to support him.
Feeling the soft touch on his arm, Xiao Yuan's heart fluttered slightly. Although he didn't love Han Yue, he still had a good impression of her.
It's not impossible to get on the train first and buy a ticket later.
"I didn't expect you to have become this powerful. Was that lady you were with earlier also one of your lovers?"
Han Yue's topic was quite a leap, which surprised Xiao Yuan.
"Her? Sigh, it's a bit complicated. I can't call her a confidante yet, and I don't know what to call her. Anyway, she'll be by my side for the time being."
Xiao Yuan thought for a moment and then explained.
"My son-in-law's combat prowess is truly astonishing. He was able to severely injure Dou Zong expert with a single move. Yue Er's judgment is indeed excellent!"
Han Chi flew over with his men and couldn't help but sigh.
"Thank you for your recognition, Uncle Han. I'll have to trouble you to take people to take inventory of the Hong Clan family. I need to find a place to heal my injuries, so I'll take my leave now."
Xiao Yuan nodded, then clasped his hands in a fist salute and said.
"No problem, let Yue Er take you home. Bring whatever materials you need! Also, please ask Elder Zhu Qian to examine Xiao Yuan's injuries."
Han Chi was naturally quite satisfied with Xiao Yuan as his son-in-law, and he immediately waved his hand and threw a Storage Ring to Han Yue.
Inside were some of his personal treasured Medicinal Herbs and the family head's token, which could open the family's warehouse and retrieve the resources inside.
"Father, then we'll head back now."
Han Yue's cheeks flushed as she accepted the Storage Ring. Initially, her decision to marry Xiao Yuan had been partly driven by a sense of pride and rivalry. But now that Xiao Yuan was truly accepted by Han Chi, she realized how bold she had been, blurting out what she had kept hidden in her heart today, especially in front of all the family elders. Thankfully, Xiao Yuan had agreed; otherwise, she would have been incredibly embarrassed. "Go."
Han Chi smiled and nodded, watching the two leave.
"I never expected that Yue Er would find such an outstanding young man so quietly. It seems that if given some more time, he will be able to become a Dou Zun level expert. At that time, my Han Clan will also become a first-class force in Central State!"
Han Tian, Han Yue's second uncle, who was standing next to him, said with a sigh.
"Do you think he'll be able to deal with the other experts from the Wind and Thunder Pavilion after he recovers from his injuries?"
Han Chi's smile faded, and after a moment of silence, he asked.
"If it were the other three elders who are on par with Shen Yun, it wouldn't be difficult. If the Great Elder, Xiao Yuan, and that female Dou Zong who has a close relationship with Xiao Yuan all made a move, they should have some advantages. However, Fei Tian, the Pavilion Master of the Wind and Thunder North Pavilion, is a Peak Dou Zong expert. Even if Xiao Yuan recovers from his injuries, he will probably have a hard time withstanding the combined attack of the four of them."
Upon hearing this, Han Tian also suppressed his smile and said with a slightly serious expression.
"Yes, but in any case, let's deal with the Hong Clan's matter first. Second brother, go home first and gather the core members of the family. Send them out of the city secretly to prevent the worst from happening. If that happens, I will have Xiao Yuan take Yue Er and Xue Er away. You also need to protect those children and leave the Northern Region, and wait for the right opportunity."
Han Chi sighed, then said with a hint of determination.
Xiao Yuan killed an elder of the Wind and Thunder North Pavilion, so the Wind and Thunder Pavilion will certainly not let him off easily. If they wait until things get really bad before making any plans, it will be too late.
Therefore, you must have a backup plan! "Are you planning to sacrifice yourself?"
Upon hearing this, Han Tian's expression changed.
"It may not necessarily come to that, but it's never a bad thing to make more preparations."
Han Chi shook his head and said with a smile.
"Okay, I'll go back and make preparations."
Han Tian sighed upon hearing this, looking down at the Hong Clan, whose strongest Hong Clan was now only at the Dou Ling level. He thought that the Hong family, who had offended Xiao Yuan, had met such an end. What would become of the Han Clan, who had offended the Wind and Thunder Pavilion? He could only hope that Xiao Yuan was strong enough to withstand the Wind and Thunder North Pavilion.
Otherwise, the Han Clan would be in big trouble! Han Yue hadn't yet realized how much trouble her ideal husband had caused the Han Clan. At this moment, she and Xiao Yuan were riding the wind, which gave her a feeling of being a perfect couple, so she was in a pretty good mood.
"Thank you so much for today. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid I would have really married Hong Chen. If that were the case, all he would have gotten was a cold corpse."
After a moment of silence, Han Yue spoke.
"Actually, the Hong Clan's desires are not just about you marrying Hong Chen, but more importantly, to use this opportunity to erode the power of your Han Clan, right?"
Xiao Yuan nodded, and said thoughtfully.
"Ugh, what's most infuriating is that guy even wanted my sister to marry him. It's a pity I'm not strong enough, otherwise I really wanted to kill him with my own hands!"
Upon hearing this, Han Yue's expression turned much colder, and she spoke in a low voice with murderous intent.
"Speaking of which, when did you start liking me, senior?"
Xiao Yuan didn't want to continue talking about such an unpleasant topic with Han Yue, so he changed the subject and asked with curiosity.
"Of course it is... uh... why are you suddenly asking this?"
Han Yue was about to answer subconsciously, but after realizing what she had said, her pretty face immediately turned red.
"Tell me, I'm very curious!"
Xiao Yuan pressed for more information.
Have you ever heard of love at first sight?
Han Yue bit her lip and said softly.
"You mean? The first time you met me?"
Xiao Yuan was somewhat surprised.
"You have a face more beautiful than a woman's, and you're incredibly capable. Why wouldn't I like you? You don't really think I'd shake hands with a man I've only met once just because I admire him, do you?"
Han Yue decided to go all out and spoke frankly.
"Okay, I'm just a little surprised."
Xiao Yuan nodded upon hearing this, and then reached out and hugged Han Yue.
"Hey, what are you doing?"
Han Yue's pretty face flushed red, and her voice trembled slightly with panic.
"You said you'd marry me, aren't you going to give me a hug? To be honest, your silver hair and aloof demeanor are quite attractive."
Xiao Yuan smiled.
"Then why were you so polite to me at the academy, as if you were trying to draw a line between us?"
Han Yue muttered upon hearing this.
"I was busy cultivating at that time. Although my senior was indeed very beautiful, I never thought that she also had some feelings for me."
Xiao Yuan inhaled the delicate fragrance emanating from the silver-haired beauty in his arms and explained with a smile.
"Alright, Yu'er was right after all. Ever since you were able to cultivate, you've devoted most of your attention to cultivation!"
Han Yue nodded helplessly upon hearing this, then suddenly paused in surprise.
"Wait a minute, I remember Yu'er telling me that you only started cultivating when you were fifteen? That means you've been cultivating Dou Qi for less than five years now?"
Han Yue recalled what Xiao Yu had told her about Xiao Yuan's past, and her heart trembled. She asked in disbelief.
"Uh, more or less, but it's different. My cultivation method is different from that of ordinary people."
Xiao Yuan nodded.
"My God, I've never seen such a genius as you in the entire Central Continent. You've only been cultivating for less than five years, yet you've already managed to kill Dou Zong expert!"
Han Yue couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.
"Hehe, my younger brother Xiao Yan is in a similar situation to me. His combat strength is now comparable to some Dou Zong. I don't think that's anything strange, is it?"
Xiao Yuan asked with a smile.
"Oh, and Xiao Yan too, you two brothers are really stronger than the last."
Han Yue nodded upon hearing this, clearly recalling how Xiao Yan, the dark horse, had defeated Liu Qing and Lin Xiuya to become the champion of the Strong Ranking Tournament.
"By the way, how far is it from here to the Pill Domain? I was originally going there, and Xiao Yan and some of my friends were there too, but I was sent to the Northern Region by Space Storm."
Xiao Yuan asked again.
"The Pill Domain is located in the Central Region of the Central Continent. To get there, you'll need to use several Space Wormhole."
Han Yue thought for a moment and then said.
"Well, no rush. I'll stay at the Han Clan for a while. I don't think Wind and Thunder Pavilion will give up so easily. I need to stay so the Han Clan can be safe."
After thinking it over, Xiao Yuan decided to stay in the Han Clan and wait for the Wind and Thunder Pavilion to come and die.
"However, if I really marry you, the Han Clan will be dragged to the opposite side of the Wind and Thunder Pavilion by me. In that case, it will be me dragging you down, not me helping you."
Xiao Yuan shook his head helplessly.
"It's okay, I believe in you."
Upon hearing this, Han Yue wasn't too worried about the Wind and Thunder Pavilion. Instead, she looked at Xiao Yuan and said with a determined expression.
