Sword Pavilion.
Xia Wudao lay on the bed.
Even in his unconscious state, his entire body was still twitching, and he let out continuous groans of pain from his mouth.
Madam Liu sat by his side, looking at the tragic state of her eldest son. Her eyes were red from crying, and she kept cursing Xia Wuji under her breath.
Xia Xuan, who had gone to the ancestral temple to calm down for a long time, stood by the side at this moment, his expression somber, not uttering a word.
"Father, Xia Wuji is back!"
Xia Wuhui rushed into the room with an excited expression and said to Xia Xuan.
Xia Xuan still did not speak.
Madam Liu hurriedly stood up and grabbed Xia Xuan's arm, saying, "Xia Xuan, look at what Wudao has become!"
"He is your own son! How can you bear to watch him suffer such torment?"
"All of this is thanks to that scoundrel Xia Wuji. What are you still hesitating for?"
"Following Wuhui's plan, obtaining Xia Wuji's method to repair his Dantian and save Wudao is the most important thing!"
"When Wudao's Dantian is repaired, he will definitely become stronger like Xia Wuji and directly get admitted into Azure Star Academy, while Wuhui will join Azure Star Academy with the Azure Star Token."
"In the end, you will be the one enjoying the blessings. Your precious son and daughter will both be disciples of Azure Star Academy. Who will dare to look down on the Sword Pavilion then? Who will dare to look down on you?"
"As for that Xia Wuji? He's an ungrateful bastard. He won't remember the kindness of raising him all these years. You can't expect him to repay you at all!"
Xia Wuhui quickly added fuel to the fire, saying, "Father, for Wudao Ge, for me, for Mother, and for yourself, as well as for the Sword Pavilion, you cannot back down at this moment!"
Xia Xuan took a deep breath and finally made his final decision, saying, "Have someone bring Xia Wuji to the secret chamber!"
Madam Liu and Xia Wuhui were instantly filled with excitement!
Xia Wuji entered the secret chamber of the Sword Pavilion with a detached expression and saw Xia Xuan with his back to him.
"What did my mother say before she died?" Xia Wuji asked coldly.
He didn't want to waste a single moment.
Xia Xuan slowly turned around, looked at Xia Wuji, and said, "You really won't even call me 'Father'?"
Xia Wuji let out a cold laugh. "Are you worthy?"
A look of anger suddenly appeared on Xia Xuan's face.
"Scoundrel!"
With a loud shout.
He suddenly flung his hand.
Crack!
A jade bottle smashed onto the ground.
The jade bottle shattered.
In an instant, a dark red mist spread throughout the secret chamber.
"Bone-Corroding Incense?" Xia Wuji's eyes flashed with a cold glint.
It seemed they truly hadn't repented and had tricked him into coming back to make a move on him!
But since Xia Wuji dared to return, he was not afraid of any of their schemes!
In an instant, the Sky Burning Art was activated. The flames in his Dantian rapidly traversed his meridians and flesh, burning away all the poisonous mist that entered his body!
"Father, I'll handle it from here." At this moment, the secret door of the chamber opened, and Xia Wuhui walked out with a smug expression.
Madam Liu also came with her.
"Xia Wuji!"
"You've finally fallen into my hands. You harmed my son so tragically, I will absolutely not let you off lightly!"
Madam Liu's expression was distorted, like a hideous ghost crawling out of hell, wishing she could skin Xia Wuji alive, dig out his heart and lungs, and tear his body into ten thousand pieces!
But at this very moment.
"Boom!"
A deafening sound.
The entire Sword Pavilion was shaking.
"Where is Xia Xuan? Get out here!"
A furious roar echoed into the secret chamber.
Xia Xuan's face changed drastically. "Damn it, it's that Xu Yao. Three years ago, I fell into his trap and suffered a great loss. But this is the Sword Pavilion today. He still dares to come. I'll go settle this with him!"
Then, he glanced at Xia Wuji with a look of disappointment, and then looked at Madam Liu and Xia Wuhui, saying, "No matter how unfilial this child is, he is still my son."
"Cripple his cultivation, so he has no possibility of causing trouble in the future."
"Get the Azure Star Token back."
"Dig up the secret method to repair the Dantian."
"Leave him with his life. From now on, let him kneel at the ancestral temple entrance day and night to repent."
After speaking, he immediately left the secret chamber to deal with Xu Yao, who had come looking for trouble.
After Xia Xuan left.
Xia Wuhui laughed heartily, "Xia Wuji, Xia Wuji, weren't you very arrogant when you were tormenting my brother today? But what can you do now?"
"How do you like the taste of the Bone Corroding Incense I specially prepared for you?"
"Let alone you, even a true Primal Energy Realm expert would not be able to withstand the toxicity of this Bone Corroding Incense if they hadn't taken the antidote in advance. All their bones would be corroded, and they would ultimately become a maggot that can only crawl on the ground, trampled by anyone!"
"This is your retribution!"
Xia Wuji's expression was indifferent, and he said, "Shouldn't the ones who deserve retribution be you?"
"You dog, how dare you still talk tough? I'll tear your mouth apart first!"
Madam Liu, thinking of her son Xia Wudao's condition, could no longer tolerate it. She let out a sharp roar, her face filled with malice, and she quickly rushed in front of Xia Wuji.
"Slap!"
Xia Wuji suddenly slapped out!
He brutally struck Madam Liu's face!
Madam Liu's head tilted, and her teeth, mixed with blood, spurted out violently!
She was stunned.
"Slap!"
Xia Wuji backhanded another slap, fiercely striking Madam Liu's other cheek.
This time, Madam Liu was directly beaten to the ground!
"You wicked woman, I've tolerated you for a long time!" Xia Wuji roared angrily. With a whoosh, sword light flashed, and the Jinghong Sword was drawn. He thrust the sword down fiercely, piercing Madam Liu's chest.
Madam Liu covered her chest with both hands, blood gushing out.
"Are you satisfied with this retribution?" Xia Wuji said coldly.
At this moment, Xia Wuji couldn't help but recall the scenes of Madam Liu repeatedly scolding, humiliating, and framing him over the years.
He didn't want Madam Liu to die so quickly.
Madam Liu could no longer utter a single word. Her body, lying on the ground, convulsed violently, her life force rapidly draining away.
"You..."
"How is this possible? You didn't prepare in advance... there's absolutely no problem with my Bone Corroding Incense..."
Xia Wuhui retreated repeatedly, shrinking into the corner of the secret chamber, filled with terror.
She knew how potent this poison was; even a Primal Energy Realm martial artist couldn't withstand it.
Yet, Xia Wuji was acting as if nothing had happened.
"With your meager skills, you dare to try and poison me? What do you think you are!"
Xia Wuji, holding his sword, walked towards Xia Wuhui.
With every step he took, the shadow of death looming over Xia Wuhui deepened several times!
When Xia Wuji arrived in front of Xia Wuhui.
Thump!
Xia Wuhui's legs went weak, and she instantly knelt on the ground.
"Big brother..."
"I was wrong!"
"I truly know I was wrong..."
"Don't kill me... Don't kill me, I'm your Wuhui sister... When I was young, you loved holding me the most, and you always gave me delicious food... Every time I made a mistake, you protected me and took the punishment for me..."
"You are the big brother who doted on me the most..."
"This is truly... quite ironic!" Xia Wuji's voice became even colder.
"If you hadn't mentioned it, I would have almost forgotten."
"When I was young, you called me a bastard without a mother when I held you, and you felt disgusted even if I touched you."
"I prepared candy that you liked, but you threw it on the ground and trampled on it. You even ran to your mother and said I wanted to poison you."
"Every time you made a mistake, it was indeed me who took the punishment, because every single time, you blamed me!"
"Since you said I am the brother who doted on you the most, then your good big brother will send you on your way!"
Xia Wuji coldly shouted, and his sword edge flashed!
A single stroke to the throat!
Xia Wuhui died instantly!
Madam Liu watched her precious daughter die by Xia Wuji's sword, unable to do anything. She could only stare, her chest still bleeding profusely, slowly feeling... death.
Xia Wuji cleaved open the tightly shut door of the secret chamber with his sword.
He stepped outside.
He saw Xia Xuan's body being thrown backward, smashing through a section of the building.
Xia Xuan struggled to get up from the rubble, covered in blood.
He looked at his arrogant enemy, Xu Yao, opposite him. He looked at the blood-red sword glowing with a bloody light in Xu Yao's hand, his heart filled with grief and rage!
That was the Crimson Blood Sword of the Xia family from the Sword Pavilion!
He then saw Xia Wuji emerge from the secret chamber unharmed. Although he didn't know why Xia Wuji was fine, he couldn't think about that at this moment.
"You unfilial wretch!"
"You scoundrel!"
"You stole the Crimson Blood Sword and handed it over to Xu Yao..."
Xia Xuan roared.
At this moment, he feared Xu Yao, but he transformed this fear and humiliation into fury, unleashing it upon Xia Wuji!
However, Xia Wuji didn't need to say anything.
Xu Yao, holding the ancestral treasure sword of the Sword Pavilion, sneered, "Xia Xuan, have you misunderstood something? This sword was given to me by your still-charming and dewy wife, Madam Liu!"
"And she begged me to accept it!"
"Hahaha!"
As soon as these words were spoken.
Xia Xuan's body felt as if struck by lightning!
