Aoba Dun, Die! (Fourth Update!)

A mere Aoba Family was not worth him taking action personally.

The most terrifying thing about alchemists was their network. With one raised arm, a high-grade alchemist could draw in a pile of powerful experts.

Although he was only a Fourth Grade Alchemist now, his ability in this regard was already beginning to show.

Xiao Zhan and the three elders were delighted at his words. This matter had to be handled beautifully!

Meanwhile, Jialie Bi and Aoba Dun were in a dilapidated house near the Xiao Family.

"Strange. What's going on? Why still isn't there any news of that Han Li appearing at the Xiao Family?"

Aoba Dun's brows were tightly furrowed as he cursed inwardly at the incompetence of the people keeping watch.

Jialie Bi also found it somewhat strange. Logically speaking, such a situation should not have occurred.

Just then, someone knocked on the room's door.

"Come in."

Jialie Bi said.

Seeing the person who entered, Jialie Bi narrowed his eyes.

This person was someone Jialie Bi had arranged nearby to liaise with the Xiao Family, responsible for passing along news from the Xiao Family.

But according to the plan, he should not have appeared at this time.

The newcomer seemed to know Jialie Bi's doubts, and his eyes moved imperceptibly.

He cupped his hands toward the two of them and said.

"Clan Leader, Lord Aoba Dun, I just saw Han Li enter the Xiao Family through the side gate.

That Han Li seemed to have gone to the marketplace first, and because of the route, he entered through the side gate."

Jialie Bi understood instantly, and a trace of cold sweat flashed across his forehead without anyone knowing.

That Han Li must have discovered the people lying in ambush, then used some unknown method to bypass all lines of sight and enter the Xiao Family.

In order for the plan to proceed normally, the Xiao Family had used this excuse to pass the news over in a veiled way.

At this moment, Jialie Bi felt somewhat relieved. Fortunately, he had chosen to submit.

Otherwise, today, his Jialie Family would certainly have been wiped out as well. The methods of a Fourth Grade Alchemist were simply not something they could fathom.

"So that's how it is."

Aoba Dun was still in the dark. He nodded, letting out a breath of relief inwardly. If something went wrong with this ambush this time.

And that Han Li escaped because of it, then they could simply wait for death.

Jialie Bi glanced at Aoba Dun without changing expression. Seeing that he had not noticed anything amiss, he breathed a sigh of relief.

He cursed inwardly, idiot.

Jialie Bi composed himself and said to the person before him.

"Ahem, well done. Go back and continue keeping watch."

As he spoke, he gave him a look.

That person understood and nodded.

"Yes."

Afterward, he left the place.

Half an hour later, Su Yun left the Xiao Family and appeared at the Xiao Family's main gate.

He slowly walked down the road, as if he knew nothing.

The person keeping watch was delighted. "Quick, notify the clan leader!"

Jialie Bi and Aoba Dun immediately received the news.

The two exchanged a glance. "Go!"

Before long, Su Yun had reached a secluded place.

Just then, the people hidden in the darkness slowly walked out from the gloomy corners.

The ones leading them were Jialie Bi and Aoba Dun.

Aoba Dun gave a sinister smile.

"Master Han Li, long time no see."

Su Yun sneered inwardly, but on the surface, he remained calm.

"Oh, you two. With such a grand lineup, what are you planning to do?"

"What are we planning to do? What, even now, Master Han still wants to play dumb?"

Aoba Dun let out a jie-jie-jie laugh.

Villains died from talking too much.

Su Yun gave a soft chuckle and was too lazy to waste words with him.

"In that case, what else is there to say?"

Seeing that Su Yun was still being stubborn even with death at hand, Aoba Dun could not help becoming somewhat angry.

"Hmph, all of you, attack! Send Master Han to hell!"

Aoba Dun could not help feeling a surge of delight. A Fourth Grade Alchemist he could not have dreamed of reaching in the past was about to die by his hands today.

Jie-jie-jie!

Before Aoba Dun had laughed for long, Jialie Bi, who was behind him, struck out with a palm.

"Wind Form Palm!"

Jialie Bi slammed his palm into Aoba Dun's back. Aoba Dun was completely unguarded and was knocked to the ground in one blow.

Aoba Dun lay on the ground as a mouthful of fresh blood sprayed from his mouth. All his internal organs had shifted out of place, and he was gravely injured.

"You, you... Jialie Bi, you betrayed me!"

At this moment, screams also rang out from all around. Aoba Dun hurriedly looked up, and at that sight, Aoba Dun was so furious his soul nearly flew apart.

It turned out that the Jialie Family members all around had just ambushed the Aoba Family's people.

Jialie Bi sneered. The moment he attacked Aoba Dun just now was the signal.

At the same time he made his move, the family's people would simultaneously attack the Aoba Family's people.

Another burst of footsteps came from all around. The Xiao Family had brought people here!

The surroundings were in chaos. The Xiao Family and the Jialie Family joined forces to slaughter the Aoba Family's people.

Originally, the Aoba Family was already at a disadvantage in numbers. Now, they had been ambushed by the Jialie Family's people and were carrying injuries, so the scene showed a one-sided trend.

"Wind Form Palm!"

Jialie Bi struck out with another palm, slamming it onto Aoba Dun's forehead.

"You..."

Aoba Dun's eyes bulged as wide as copper bells. He pointed at Jialie Bi and died unwillingly.

Jialie Bi let out a breath of relief. Now there was no witness to confront him.

Although he had come to submit this time, this matter had, in the end, been planned by his own hand.

If it were exposed, it would be hard to guarantee that Han Li would not destroy his Jialie Family as well.

Su Yun watched from the side and did not think too much of it. He simply stayed where he was and waited for the dust to settle.

Before long, the vast majority of the Aoba Family's people were killed on the spot. Another portion escaped, and the Xiao Family and Jialie Family sent a group of men out to hunt them down.

Xiao Zhan walked up to Su Yun.

"Master Han, this is not the place to talk. Why don't we move to my Xiao Family residence?"

Su Yun nodded and left the scene with Xiao Zhan. Jialie Bi also hurriedly followed.

As for the other three elders of the Xiao Family, they did not follow. They had all gone to hunt down the remaining people.

The Xiao Family's Great Elder wanted to request a Qi Gathering Powder, so naturally, he worked hard and charged at the front line.

These three old men of the Xiao Family basically stuck together, and the other two elders had also been pulled over by the Great Elder.

Arriving at the Xiao Family hall, after they took their seats, Xiao Zhan clapped his hands. A girl who looked fifteen or sixteen walked over and brewed tea for Su Yun.

Xiao Zhan said with a beaming smile, "This is the Great Elder's granddaughter. Her name is Xiao Yu."

"Greetings, Master Han."

Hm?

Su Yun was somewhat surprised. Xiao Yu?

Although Su Yun was somewhat curious inside, his expression did not change, and he nodded.

"Mm, so you are the Great Elder's granddaughter."

Those legs... mm, they were quite long.

Xiao Yu was somewhat nervous at this moment. This was her first time being so close to such a big shot.

Although she had seen Su Yun before, it had only been from far away when Su Yun came.

Su Yun took the teacup from Xiao Yu's hand, waved his hand, and had Xiao Yu withdraw to the side.

"This time, many thanks to the Xiao Family and the Jialie Family. Otherwise, I, Han, would probably have been in grave danger."

Xiao Zhan and Jialie Bi hurriedly waved their hands.

Su Yun said this, but they did not dare take it seriously. With Su Yun's methods of avoiding hidden sentries, even without them, he could have escaped unscathed.
