Yun Shan's Dominance, a Battle Between Dou Venerables

"Let's wait and see how things develop. I trust the teacher!"

Faced with this situation, Xiao Zhan could only offer these words of comfort to his clansmen.

Having said that, sensing the unease of the woman beside him, Xiao Zhan directly took his wife's small hand.

Don't worry, I've got everything covered!

A resolute look appeared in Xiao Zhan's eyes.

If anything unexpected happens, he will risk his life to protect his wife and people!

"Um."

Yang Xiyue nodded gently at this moment.

So what if he's Dou Venerable?

With her husband by her side, she fears nothing!

At this moment, no one cares about the couple showing affection.

Almost as soon as Venerable Qing Hai turned his gaze to the Xiao Household family, most of the other forces around couldn't help but quietly move away from Xiao Household.

After all, not only the Xiao Household family members, but also others around them naturally noticed the ill-intentioned look in Venerable Qing Hai.

They didn't want to be foolishly dragged into a situation where they were being targeted by a Dou Zun expert!

Although they were also puzzled, how could the Xiao Household Dou Wang Family clan, have offended a Dou Zun expert?

But now they don't care anymore. Even if Xiao Zhan is the disciple of Yun Shan, the newly promoted Dou Venerable, they can't risk offending another Dou Venerable by being too close to the Xiao Household.

Fortunately, most of those who chose to distance themselves from the Xiao Household came from other empires.

As for the Jia Ma Empire, none of the forces possessing Dou Wang or higher-level experts backed down.

Leaving aside their trust in Yun Shan, the newly promoted Dou Venerable, in fact, almost all the forces above Dou Wang in the Jia Ma Empire have good relations with the Xiao Household.

The Imperial Family and the Xiao Household are related by marriage. The Mittel Family has Hai Bodong as an angel investor. Fa Ma from the Alchemist Guild also knows that the Xiao Household has a capable person behind them. The Nalan Family and the Xiao Household are also related by marriage. Even among the Mu Household, Mu Chen maintains a friendship with Xiao Lin!

As for the other Dou Wang Families that have emerged in the Jia Ma Empire over the years, although they are not very close to the Xiao Household, they are not estranged either.

As for the Misty Cloud Sect, ever since the First Elder Ling Yun betrayed the sect, they no longer have any designs on the Xiao Household.

They weren't blind to the attitudes of their own sect leader, current sect leader, and Young Sect Master towards the Xiao Household, were they?

They must be out of their mind to distance themselves from the Xiao Household!

Therefore, even though the Xiao Household is currently being targeted by the Venerable Qing Hai, they are not entirely isolated and helpless.

Seeing this, the Xiao Household family felt quite gratified.

The other empires' forces dared not approach the Xiao Household, and they didn't care much about them.

After all, the Xiao Household didn't have much interaction with the other empires.

"Hehehe, interesting!"

Upon seeing this, a bloodthirsty glint flashed in Venerable Qing Hai's eyes.

"Call out"

Just then, Yun Shan suddenly flashed and blocked Venerable Qing Hai's gaze from the Xiao Household family.

"Hmph, Qing Hai, don't be so presumptuous! This is my Misty Cloud Sect, and it's not up to a Soul Hall Members like you to run wild! I said, if I've never seen Wu Ying, I haven't seen it!"

What, you think you can take a hard line against my Misty Cloud Sect?

Yun Shan quite domineeringly blocked Venerable Qing Hai's way out.

Putting everything else aside, he had just broken through to the Dou Zun Realm, and was at the height of his power, when Venerable Qing Hai suddenly came to the Misty Cloud Sect to humiliate him and even had designs on the family of his disciple. Could Yun Shan tolerate this?

If they truly comply with Venerable Qing Hai's wishes, then the Misty Cloud Sect will lose all face from now on.

At that point, forget about making the Jia Ma Empire the new dominant power in the Northwest Continent; who would even give a damn about Yun Shan?

To allow someone to so blatantly target the family of one of his disciples within his own sect, and to be powerless to do anything about it, would surely cause Misty Cloud Sect and himself to lose all face.

"Hehehe, Yun Shan, I have no designs on your Misty Cloud Sect! In fact, I just want your second disciple to come with me."

As long as you don't stop it, the matter of the Wu Ying will be wiped clean, and my Soul Hall will never cause trouble for your Misty Cloud Sect again!

Listen carefully, this is the last chance I'm giving you and the Misty Cloud Sect!

Otherwise..."

Clearly, no matter how much Yun Shan denies it, Venerable Qing Hai is convinced that Yun Shan was behind the mysterious disappearance of the Wu Ying.

But he didn't care.

Compared to the Xiao Household family, this is nothing but a trivial matter.

Conversely, Yun Shan, who is Dou Venerable, is a minor troublemaker even though he has only recently broken through.

Moreover, Yun Shan is Sword Cultivator!

Although Venerable Qing Hai was confident in defeating Yun Shan, it was clear that he would have to pay a considerable price.

Although Venerable Qing Hai also coveted Yun Shan's soul, he was not entirely certain of success.

If it comes at the cost of serious personal injury, it's hard to say whether it's worth it.

Therefore, if possible, he hopes to avoid conflict with Yun Shan, this Sword Cultivator and Dou Venerable.

But if Yun Shan remains obstinate and insists on protecting the Xiao Household and his disciples, then don't blame him for being impolite!

To put it bluntly, Venerable Qing Hai simply wanted to take away the Xiao Household's Leadership members with minimal cost.

However, will Yun Shan, who is no longer possessed by demons in this life, grant the wishes of Venerable Qing Hai?

"Clang"

A flash of silver light—that was the best answer Yun Shan could give!

Looking further ahead, in mid-air, Yun Shan had one hand behind his back and the other holding a sword that gleamed with a cold light!

"Hmph, threatening me? Qing Hai, you overestimate yourself!"

With a cold snort, Yun Shan began to subtly gather his Dou Qi.

"It seems you've chosen the path of no return! It's a pity you just advanced to Dou Venerable, and today you're about to perish here! How tragic! You've ruined the Misty Cloud Sect's hope for a resurgence."

Seeing that Yun Shan had already drawn his sword, Venerable Qing Hai knew that further words would be of no use.

This battle was destined to be unavoidable!

"Buzz~"

A faint, ethereal light emanated from the Venerable Qing Hai.

Yun Shan frowned as he sensed the repulsive aura emanating from Venerable Qing Hai.

"Swish"

The next second, Yun Shan had already swung his sword.

A Sword Qi slashed through the sky and appeared in front of Venerable Qing Hai in the blink of an eye.

"Bang"

The body of the Venerable Qing Hai was instantly blasted apart, turning into a cloud of black mist.

"A trivial skill!"

At the same time, the cold voice of Venerable Qing Hai also came from within the black mist.

Soon after, the black mist reappeared and condensed into the body of the Venerable Qing Hai.

Yun Shan's slash failed to cause any damage to Venerable Qing Hai.

However, Yun Shan's expression did not change at all upon seeing this.

After all, that attack just now was merely a test.

However, even though this attack was just a test by Yun Shan, the Sword Qi still swept away all the clouds in the sky after passing through the black mist that Venerable Qing Hai had transformed into!
