Wide, two-toned fire wings burned brilliantly as Xiao Yan's foot came down hard on Chai Family Second's chest.
Bang!
The instant the Heavenly Flames energy erupted, it was like an explosion, and scorching waves of fire spread dozens of meters.
The next moment.
Bang bang bang!
Chai Family Second, his face full of disbelief, bounced and slid across the ground, leaving behind a long trail of blood.
His chest caved in and burst apart.
It was utterly shocking!
Whoosh!
As the blazing fire wings burned, Xiao Yan coldly took out medicinal liquid and applied it to Xiao Mei.
"Chai Family Second was a Dou Ling, yet Xiao Yan actually killed him?"
Xiao Ting had just been about to say something when the intense pain made him cough up blood.
"Third Uncle, take Xiao Mei and Xiao Ning back to the Xiao Family first. I'll handle the rest."
Xiao Yan's unquestionable tone left Xiao Ting unable to raise even the slightest objection.
He caught the medicine Xiao Yan tossed him. After swallowing it, he hurriedly took Xiao Mei back.
"Xiao Yan, I'm entrusting Yu'er to you!"
Xiao Yan nodded coldly. Glancing at the dozen or so figures who had followed them, he beat his wings and turned into a phantom once more.
The Jia Lie Family.
Inside the brightly lit hall, the atmosphere was oppressive and stifling.
Jia Liebi, once so imposing, now stood below like a servant, tense and uneasy.
At the head of the hall, Bai Yi, dressed in luxurious robes, lounged lazily against the back of his chair.
Xiao Yu, bound with specially made ropes, lay on the floor and glared viciously at him.
"Master Bai, we never expected you to bring three Dou Lings with you. It is truly an honor for the Jia Lie Family!" Jia Liebi clasped his hands, his manner humble.
Bai Yi remained expressionless as he slipped a hand into the clothes of the maid beside him, groping around without restraint.
Under Bai Yi's violation, the pretty maid's face turned deathly pale, and moisture gathered in her eyes.
"My useless junior brother actually fell in a pathetic little place like this? How laughable."
Bai Yi spoke indifferently. "Since the old patriarch of the Jia Lie Family shares a deep friendship with my master, the Jia Lie Family's affairs are Bai's affairs. By the time the sun rises, there will no longer be a Xiao Family in Wutan City."
Jia Liebi was overjoyed and hurriedly clasped his hands.
"Many thanks, Master Bai!"
But immediately afterward, he said uneasily, "The Xiao Family also has a Second Grade Alchemist. I'm afraid..."
Whoosh!
Azure Beast Flame surged upward, and faintly, a swimming fish could be seen drifting within it.
"Third Rank Beast Fire!"
Jia Liebi's scalp went numb, and his reverence for Bai Yi deepened. "To possess Third Rank Beast Fire, Your Excellency's Pill Refinement Technique must be far superior to that Second Grade Alchemist's!"
Jia Liebi's eyes shifted as he gave a lecherous smile. "Master Bai, your trip to Wutan City has truly not been in vain! There is a young girl named Xun Er in the Wutan City Xiao Family. She has the beauty of a goddess. I'll have someone capture her and deliver her to Master Bai!"
"Prettier than her?" Bai Yi glanced at Xiao Yu in surprise.
"Ten times prettier!"
Seeing Jia Liebi pat his chest in guarantee, Bai Yi grinned with interest. "If such a peerless beauty truly exists in this world, then tonight, I'll become a groom twice!"
"Tonight?" Jia Liebi froze.
"Heh heh."
Chai Family Eldest gave a disdainful laugh. "A mere Xiao Family, lucky enough to have a novice alchemist, can at most afford Da Dou Shi-level guards.
Why wait until tomorrow to wipe out their entire family?
My Third Brother has already gone!"
After a brief moment of dazed disbelief, Jia Liebi's face turned ecstatic.
"Oh, right. The Xiao Family also has a boy named Xiao Yan. He's very strange—only fifteen years old, yet capable of killing a Da Dou Shi. You must eliminate him completely!"
"Oh?"
Bai Yi raised a brow in surprise, then shook his head with a smile. "Perhaps the Da Dou Shis of your Wutan City are simply too worthless. A fifteen-year-old capable of killing a Da Dou Shi is unheard of. Not even Yun Yun, the sect master of the Misty Cloud Sect, could accomplish such a thing."
Naturally, Bai Yi did not believe Jia Liebi's words. He only assumed Jia Liebi had fabricated the lie to make him eliminate the roots completely.
"Do you know how strong the three people who came with me are?"
Bai Yi lifted his chin proudly. "Chai Family Third, Three Star Dou Ling."
Jia Liebi's heart shook.
"Chai Family Second, Four Star Dou Ling."
Jia Liebi's pupils contracted sharply.
"Chai Family Eldest, Six Star Dou Ling."
Jia Liebi's mouth went dry. It felt as if flames were scorching his throat, leaving it so parched that he could barely swallow.
"And I."
Bai Yi played with the azure Beast Flame and smiled faintly. "At merely thirty-one years old, I am an Eight Star Dou Ling."
Whoosh! The hall erupted into commotion as everyone looked at Bai Yi with fear and shock.
An Eight Star Dou Ling!
In just a few years, Bai Yi would be able to challenge the Dou Wang realm and become a powerhouse who ruled an entire region!
"So that so-called newly promoted Second Grade Alchemist and that Xiao Family are nothing but shit in my eyes."
Bai Yi twirled the Beast Flame and said elegantly, "As for that Xiao Yan, he is even less than nothing. If he stood before me, he would only be fit to speak on his knees."
"Master Bai's Pill Refinement Technique is unparalleled, and your strength is astonishing. Ants like us can only look up to you!" Jia Liebi flattered him wildly.
"I'm tired."
Bai Yi rubbed his temples. "Strip this girl named Xiao Yu naked and send her to my bed. Remember, once Chai Family Third returns, have him send that girl named Xun Er over as well."
"How dare you!"
Xiao Yu shouted in grief and fury. "I'm a student of Jia Nan Academy! If you dare touch me, I'll make you regret it!"
Upon hearing the words Jia Nan Academy, Bai Yi frowned slightly, then smiled even more brightly.
"Bai has lived for over thirty years and tasted countless beauties, but I have never sampled a student of Jia Nan Academy!"
"You..." Xiao Yu's delicate body trembled, mist filling her eyes.
"Why aren't you moving?"
Jia Liebi barked, and the Jia Lie Family's maids hurried toward Xiao Yu.
"You people!" Xiao Yu's eyes reddened as she tried to draw her longsword and slit her own throat.
Yet for the moment, she could not manage it.
"This woman is already so beautiful. Just how exquisite must that Xun Er be? I'm looking forward to it!"
Bai Yi took out several pills with a sinister smile, and tears seeped from the corners of Xiao Yu's aggrieved eyes.
For some reason, Xiao Yan's carefree, unruly face appeared in her mind.
Watching Xiao Yu cry, Jia Liebi laughed triumphantly in his heart. Xiao Zhan, even Dou Ling powerhouses are aiding me. The destruction of the Xiao Family is something you brought upon yourself!
Suddenly.
Boom!
The tightly shut doors suddenly shattered, and a corpse with eyes still wide open slid inside.
"Who is it?!"
Bai Yi was about to roar in anger, but the instant he saw the corpse's face, his expression changed drastically.
Chai Family Second!
"Second Brother!"
Chai Family Eldest felt his mind explode as surging fury flooded his face.
"Who was it?" Bai Yi narrowed his eyes coldly.
The next instant.
The expressions of both Bai Yi and Chai Family Eldest changed from anger to utter horror.
Crash!
The hall's roof was torn apart by sweeping flames. Amid falling wood splinters, a figure hovered in midair with his arms folded across his chest, his expression cold.
His wide wings of flame were magnificent and dazzling.
Behind him.
Boom!
Amid violent Dou Qi, Mittel Tengshan, his brows and beard both white, floated beside Xiao Yan with a faint smile.
Immediately after.
Farther away.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
The Dou Qi of more than a dozen Dou Lings surged. Accompanied by the sound of tearing wind, they smashed fiercely onto the ground, kicking up towering columns of dirt.
"This... this..."
Jia Liebi's face turned deathly pale, and he nearly dropped to his knees.
The Jia Lie Family.
What kind of monsters had they provoked?!
