Chapter 178: The Annihilation of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family

The art of war says that if you leave one side of an encirclement open, the enemy will not fight to the death because they have a glimmer of hope for survival.

But Jerry would not do that; since he had already made his move, he would cut the weeds and dig up the roots.

Fighting to the death, are they? Jerry is not afraid of that at all! Only after you have finished fighting for your lives will you realize what despair is!

Yu Yuanzhen wanted to run, but Jerry would not give him the chance, appearing directly in front of his escape path with a hand cannon already activated at his side.

"Want to run, do you? Get back there!" Jerry said, and the hand cannon fired immediately.

Yu Yuanzhen saw a person appear in front of him, who then launched an attack directly at him; because the distance was too close, a counterattack was impossible.

So, Yu Yuanzhen's plan was to block it directly and then run again.

But alas, he underestimated Jerry's hand cannon; this was not one of the mass-produced hand cannons found outside.

It was a custom-made one for Jerry.

The hand cannon used to attack Yu Yuanzhen was wind-attribute; its power might not have been great, but the secondary effect of the air cannon was excellent: knockback!

So, when Yu Yuanzhen took the air cannon, he was knocked directly back, returning to the attack range of the Ten Thousand Year Soul Beast.

Yu Yuanzhen was also completely stunned; he had been about to escape, only to be blasted back by a single shot.

Since he couldn't run, he would fight!

"Everyone gather together, defend back-to-back!" Yu Yuanzhen immediately ordered.

"Patriarch, our attacks are useless. There is a group of Healing-type Plant Soul Beasts outside that keep healing them. If we drag this out any longer, none of us will be able to leave!" the Fourth Elder said.

"That's right, Patriarch, let's break through in one direction first and plan for the rest later, otherwise everyone who came today will likely perish here," the Third Elder said.

"You think I don't want to? I just tried to open a path, but there was someone guarding the outside who used a strange Spirit Guidance Device to blast me back with a single shot," Yu Yuanzhen shouted, though his tone no longer held its previous arrogance.

How arrogant he was when he arrived, and how wretched he was now!

"It seems the people from the Spirit Hall want to keep us all here; let's fight them to the death!"

"Fight? How do we fight? With what? Everything attacking us right now is a Plant Soul Beast; we haven't even touched a single person, who are you going to fight!"

"Stop arguing now; we must break through, even if only one person can make it out, we must send word to the Empire!"

Jerry heard their conversation. Just you? You want to get out? You want to send word?

Jerry casually took out three plants; if Tang San were here, he would surely exclaim: "Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass," "Blazing Apricot Delicate," and "Snowy Swan Kiss."

Yes, these were those three Immortal Herbs, but these three had been cultivated by Jerry.

They were already eighty thousand years old; if no one had disturbed him, he could have cultivated them into hundred-thousand-year Immortal Herbs in a little more time.

Jerry could control any plant himself; not only Plant Soul Beasts, but even plants that had not yet become Soul Beasts.

"Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass," a flower of extreme cold; within ten meters of this grass, the cold air is biting, and if one stays for too long, the cold poison will invade the heart, leaving it incurable.

"Blazing Apricot Delicate," an Immortal Herb with top-grade fire poison; its effect is exactly the opposite of the "Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass."

"Snowy Swan Kiss," this plant is interesting; in Jerry's view, it is a poison amplifier!

Jerry then threw the three Immortal Herbs into the battlefield.

Perhaps because they were Immortal Herbs, they all possessed a Concealment skill.

If one were not familiar with them, one would only think they were beautiful flowers.

Thus, the three Immortal Herbs were tossed into the battlefield by Jerry without a sound; the members of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family were busy fighting other plants and did not notice that three flowers had been added to the battlefield at all.

Jerry controlled the "Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass" and the "Blazing Apricot Delicate" to release their toxins. After the two toxins mixed together, the toxicity multiplied several times over, and with the "Snowy Swan Kiss" amplifying it again, this toxicity—who knows if even a god could withstand it!

Very quickly, the air carrying the toxins permeated the entire battlefield!

Pfft—a Spirit Master from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family who had been perfectly fine suddenly spat out a mouthful of fresh blood and collapsed to the ground, unable to rise.

Pfft, pfft, pfft...

One Spirit Master after another vomited blood and fell to the ground.

Yu Yuanzhen saw everyone else collapse and suddenly realized there was poison; just as he opened his mouth to tell everyone to hold their breath, he spat out a mouthful of blood the moment he opened his mouth!

All the Spirit Masters fell to the ground, and the other Plant Soul Beasts attacked directly.

The Patriarch of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family did not make a sound until his death.

How should one put it! A great life, a silent death!

This group was worthy of being the high-level members of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family; they dropped 11 soul bones, but Jerry didn't care for such things!

With the combined toxins of the three Immortal Herbs, who knew if these soul bones were poisonous too.

Forget it, crush them, bury them in the ground, and use them as fertilizer!

Jerry then put away the three Immortal Herbs; after the other plants finished cleaning up the battlefield, it returned to calm, and the entire battlefield looked just as it had before, as if no battle had ever taken place!

Within the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family, Bibi Dong had planted moles many years ago, and Jerry's master, Chrysanthemum Douluo, knew of this.

Since the high-level members of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family had now been basically wiped out by him, there was no need for the rest to remain.

Jerry returned to the Spirit Hall and, after reporting the situation to his master and the Great Elder, the operation against the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family could be carried out.

That same night, a Barrier rose over the residence of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family.

The next day, the Heaven Dou Empire was shocked; the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family, one of the Upper Three Sects, had been wiped out, and their residence had been completely emptied.

Yet all of this had been done silently, without a single stir.

Even the spies that Xue Beng had arranged outside to guard against the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family did not know what had happened to the family that night. Overnight, they were all wiped out, without a sound.

Furthermore, not a single disciple of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family who was away escaped.

The only ones who escaped were Liu Erlong and Yu Xiaogang, who had long since left the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family.

Liu Erlong was cultivating at Lanba Academy at the time; when she heard the news the next day that the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family had been wiped out, she fainted on the spot.

Yu Xiaogang, however, showed no signs of anything unusual; even upon hearing that the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family had been wiped out, not a hint of sadness could be seen on his face, and he continued his Cultivation as always—perhaps Yu Xiaogang was just better at hiding it!

Heaven Dou Empire Palace

"Emperor Xue Beng! Besides the Spirit Hall, is there anyone else who could wipe out the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family without a sound?" the Great Elder of the Clear Sky Sect said.

"But the spies reported that the Spirit Hall had no large-scale operations last night; all the Elders of the Spirit Hall were in Wuhun City yesterday! Several Elders worked overtime until late at night before returning home," Xue Beng said.

"Your Majesty, have you forgotten that there are still a few people in the Spirit Hall whom we cannot track? The Great Elder of the Spirit Hall, the Second Elder, Chrysanthemum Douluo, and Ghost Douluo!" said the Haotian Sect Grand Elder.

"Do you think the Great Elder and Second Elder of the Spirit Hall need to show themselves to deal with the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family? However, Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo might! But even with the two of them, they couldn't wipe out an entire family overnight without making a sound!" said Prince Xuexing.

"Have you all forgotten one person, Jerry!" Tang San said at this moment.

"That's right, this person Jerry absolutely has the strength to wipe out the entire Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family. But our spies have all inquired about Jerry's personality; as long as you don't provoke him, he generally won't intentionally target anyone!" said Xue Beng.

"If this Jerry is truly the Jerry I know, it is indeed impossible. The Jerry I know is just a slightly mischievous little brat; his Cultivation is mediocre, though he is quite articulate about other things."

"Moreover, I have also returned to the village to inquire! Jerry's grandfather left a few years ago, and no one knows where he went. Jerry has never returned to Holy Soul Village either! But since you all said before that Jerry knows me, then it must be him. Hearing your descriptions, I don't even know what he has experienced over these years to have become so powerful!" Tang San said after thinking it over.

"It must be that Jerry; otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence, having the same name and also happening to know you!" said the Haotian Sect Grand Elder.

"But his Innate Spirit Power was only half a level; the personnel from the Spirit Hall who performed the awakening back then didn't even want him. Even if Wuhun City has a Cultivation Tower, it's impossible for Jerry to have grown to be comparable to a Title Douluo in just a few years!" In fact, Tang San had already confirmed in his heart that Jerry was that little brat from back then, he just didn't want to admit it!

There was no helping it; many people have this mentality. Someone who was originally inferior to them, someone they had never looked upon with any regard, reappears years later and has become a high and mighty existence that they need to look up to. The psychological disparity made Tang San unwilling to accept this reality!
