"I see."
Second Master Hong Family nodded and immediately went out to head towards the location of the Director of the Administration Bureau, who was also the S-rank superhuman Fire King.
"Now, we can only wait for news."
Hong Cheng'en sighed. He wished he could tear Hong Chao to pieces, but he couldn't do it now.
We must resolve this problem before we can deal with Hong Chao.
Silence fell over the meeting room; the atmosphere was extremely oppressive.
No one dared to speak, and no one dared to speak carelessly.
"There's no need to be so pessimistic. Our Hong Family has weathered over a hundred years of ups and downs; what kind of storms haven't we seen?"
Hong Cheng'en broke the silence, and just as he was about to continue speaking, he suddenly couldn't help but cough.
The cough was very severe and came on very suddenly.
Not only that, Hong Cheng'en discovered that his palms were sticky, and he had coughed up a pool of blood.
Uncle!
"Father!"
Seeing this, everyone was shocked, while Hong Cheng'en waved his hand dismissively.
"It's nothing, just a flare-up of my pharyngitis."
He's old, and because he's been busy swindling and cheating people, he's neglected his cultivation, so he's only a D-rank now.
Besides being driven by profit, another selfish motive behind this robbery of the potion was to extend one's own lifespan and improve one's health.
However, when he looked up and saw the people below, Hong Cheng'en suddenly realized that something seemed amiss.
Fear filled the faces of the sons and daughters-in-law, the grandsons and granddaughters-in-law.
"You guys... gulp..."
Hong Cheng'en opened his mouth subconsciously, and then felt a fishy, foul smell rush into his nostrils.
Warm blood gushed from his nostrils, and even his eyes were veiled in red.
Damn it!
Hong Cheng'en roared and tried to stand up.
But as soon as he exerted force in his legs, his body suddenly went limp and collapsed.
His leg was broken; it just broke for no apparent reason.
Uncle!
"Father!"
When the younger generation saw that Hong Cheng'en Bleeding from all seven orifices and that the bones in his legs had suddenly broken, they immediately got up to try to support him.
Unfortunately, it wasn't just Hong Cheng'en who had problems; several people barely sat up for two seconds before following in Hong Cheng'en's footsteps.
What exactly happened?
Upon seeing the situation, one of the slower-thinking individuals tried to stand up, but a sharp crack came from his waist, and he fell to the ground.
"Someone is plotting against us!"
Hong Cheng'en, being knowledgeable and experienced, immediately understood what was going on.
"Call the second brother immediately. As long as the Fire King is willing to take action, the Hong Family is willing to pay any price!"
Hong Cheng'en roared, then felt a sharp pain coming from his stomach.
Wow!
Unable to control himself, he opened his mouth and vomited a large amount of viscous substance onto the ground.
It was filthy and smelled foul, with some lumps visible to the naked eye.
Hong Cheng'en struggled to stand up, but all the bones in his limbs were broken, and even his consciousness began to blur.
I curse you to have your limbs broken!
I curse you, may your intestines burst and your belly rot!
call!
Stormy waves, raging winds and torrential rain.
The power of heaven and earth was vast and boundless, sweeping in with overwhelming force.
boom!
An invisible barrier kept the giant waves at bay, unable to budge the small boat in the slightest.
Three consecutive waves of curses killed all the Hong Family members below B-rank.
What Xu Long needs to do next is to kill everyone who has the blood of the Hong Family.
The Haitang was his taboo; when Hong Chao uttered those words, it was destined that the entire Hong Family would perish.
Whether you're A-rank or B-rank, whether you're an adult or a child, no one can escape.
Don't say the child is innocent; he enjoyed the privileged life of the Hong Family, so he should naturally bear the consequences.
Enjoying preferential treatment without taking responsibility, thinking he's some kind of rural boxing champion!
I curse your entire family to die out!
boom!
The golden talisman instantly turned to ashes, and in the next instant, it seemed as if the heavens and earth were enraged.
Amidst raging waves and torrential rain, a bolt of lightning appeared out of nowhere and struck Xu Long hard.
Although a golden talisman of A-rank and Xu Long's own pure Yang blood were used, the Curse Talisman was too low-level to annihilate the entire Hong Family.
For an ordinary family, a D-rank talisman would be sufficient, but the Hong Family is a cultivator family that controls a great deal of resources. The fact that they can send out ten A-rank experts at once speaks volumes about their overall strength.
Therefore, Xu Long used Curse Speech Technique to enhance the effect and ensure the curse's success.
In return, they suffer the backlash from the forces of heaven and earth.
The lightning bolt was extremely fierce, striking its target instantly.
A terrifying electric current surged into his body, causing Xu Long to tremble as if he had Parkinson's disease.
Fortunately, although I was slightly injured, it was still within my tolerance level.
Xu Long did not use Curse Speech Technique directly, but rather used it to assist the Curse Talisman, thus greatly reducing the power of the backlash.
Furthermore, the Hong Family members were far less powerful than Xu Long, mainly because there were too many of them and they were too scattered, making it difficult to kill them all.
In this way, although the backlash may seem frightening, it's not that bad.
"My husband!"
Seeing Xu Long struck by lightning, Haitang instinctively wanted to rush over, but was stopped by Xu Hu.
"It's alright, you won't die. You'll only cause trouble if you go over there."
Xu Hu looked up at the sky, his brows furrowed so deeply they could crush a fly.
The power permeating the world was too obscure; even he, an S-rank expert, could only sense a very faint trace of it.
"Huh? There's another one?"
Xu Long got up from the ground, his face looking rather pale.
The Curse Talisman, enhanced by multiple buffs, was incredibly powerful, more than capable of annihilating A-rank enemy, but unexpectedly, there was still one survivor.
"Hehe, it's alright. Since you're not dead, let's try again!"
Xu Long grinned maliciously and lit the golden talisman again.
Inside the villa of Fire King, S-rank superhuman from the China Cultivator Administration Bureau, a group of five people sat upright.
One of them was an acquaintance of Xu Long, namely Wang Situ, who had been tricked by his apprentice during the day.
The other four are all people who could make the earth tremble with a stomp of their feet.
Fire King, Director of the Administration Bureau, S-rank Fire-type Ability User.
The Celestial Master Yuanling of Dragon Tiger Mountain is an S-rank expert with profound Daoist knowledge, representing the Daoist Sect.
Master Miaofa of Mount Wutai, S-rank expert, possesses boundless Buddhist teachings and represents the Buddhist Sect.
The Mount Mang Corpse King, S-rank master with skin of copper and bones of iron, represents the evil faction.
The reason why the four S-rank powerhouses of State of China gathered here this time is naturally because of Xu Long.
"Senior Fire King, how do you plan to resolve this matter?"
Wang Situ sat with his legs crossed, his face full of anger.
Just as Xu Long had predicted, this old man's identity was indeed extraordinary.
He is the grand-disciple of the Celestial Master Yuanling of Dragon Tiger Mountain and a direct descendant of the Daoist Sect lineage.
He reported the news about the Gene Strengthening Agent to his master, who was also the Celestial Master Yuanling of Dragon Tiger Mountain, who approved the transaction.
However, to his utter surprise, he was outmaneuvered, and even his own apprentice betrayed him.
He lost both his wife and his army, which infuriated him.
" Hong Cheng'en is one of your men, and you saved Hong Chao. Now you want to get rid of it? Not so easy!"
Wang Situ spoke without any politeness, as if the person in front of him was not S-rank expert, but an ordinary A-rank expert.
