Chapter 128: Ambush

Blood spurted out, Xiao Yan showed no mercy whatsoever. Since they dared to lay hands on his people, Xiao Yan would absolutely not let Mo Cheng off.

If Xiao Yan had not returned in time, even his two elder brothers would likely have suffered.

The eight bone spears—Xiao Yan pulled them out of Mo Cheng's back one by one.

One must know that these bone spears were connected to Mo Cheng's ribs, already equivalent to his own bones. Now Xiao Yan was essentially ripping out his ribs!

"Ahhh!!"

Xiao Yan's cruelty thoroughly shocked everyone present; some with weaker constitutions even began vomiting uncontrollably.

Thud! Xiao Yan stomped hard on Mo Cheng's back, his eyes sharp and filled with killing intent, and asked in a low voice: "My patience is nearly worn out. Where is Qing Lin?"

Crack! The sound of bones shattering rang out. Xiao Yan slowly applied force; under his foot came a piercing scream, and the endless crack-crack of bones breaking sounded again.

"I don't know what you're talking about!" Mo Cheng's face was pressed against the ground, filled with rage and resentment.

At the very least, Mo Cheng was quite tough when it came to keeping his mouth shut.

Mo Family Head Mo Lan was greatly shocked in his heart—just what on earth did Mo Cheng bring back the day before yesterday! To actually attract such a monster! The strongest expert of the Mo Family, Mo Cheng, was only fit to be trampled underfoot!

Is this still the Great Dou Master he knew! Since when did a Great Dou Master have such power!

Mo Lan hurriedly stepped forward and said: "My lord! My lord, show mercy. I'll have someone brought over right away. Please calm your anger!"

"Mo Lan, stop right there! Who allowed you to release her?! Do you know that girl..." Mo Cheng's head twisted, and he suddenly raised it to roar angrily.

But before his roar had even fallen, Xiao Yan's eyes narrowed slightly; a drop of Ten Thousand Beast Spiritual Flame fell, and with a boom instantly burned Mo Cheng's thigh into charcoal. The scream and the smell of charred flesh spread everywhere.

Seeing Mo Cheng about to be burned to death by Xiao Yan, Ge Ye hurriedly ran over and said: "Brother Xiao Yan, show mercy! For the sake of Yun Lan Sect, please spare Mo Cheng's life."

Hearing Ge Ye's words, Mo Cheng bared his bloodstained teeth and, still relying on his backing, looked at Xiao Yan and said: "You dare to kill me in front of the leaders of so many factions in the Northeast Provinces? When the time comes, Yun Lan Sect will not let you off!"

For a moment, Xiao Yan fell silent. Seeing Xiao Yan silent, Mo Cheng immediately grew bolder, thinking Xiao Yan feared Yun Lan Sect's retaliation.

However, no one noticed that not long ago, Hai Bodong had suddenly vanished from the scene.

Just now, when Mo Lan secretly sent someone to the secret chamber, Hai Bodong had already followed that person to rescue her.

"Found her." Hearing Hai Bodong's transmitted message, Xiao Yan slowly revealed a faint smile.

Looking down at Mo Cheng beneath his feet, Xiao Yan said slowly: "First, I just said it—Yun Lan Sect has no right to threaten me in my heart, and I fear Yun Lan Sect's retaliation even less."

Xiao Yan naturally had full confidence. One must know that Xiao Yan now had a Seven-Grade Alchemist Soul Body in his hands! The value of this Soul Body alone was enough for Xiao Yan to exchange for many Soul Points, enough to hire a Dou Zong powerhouse from the Soul Hall.

What right did Yun Lan Sect, which didn't even have a Dou Zong, have to threaten Xiao Yan?

"Second, the moment you kidnapped Qing Lin and sent people to ambush my two elder brothers, your life was already written in King Yama's Book of Life and Death. No one can save you."

"Kill me? Keep dreaming!" Hearing Xiao Yan's declaration of certain death, Mo Cheng let out a ferocious roar.

Curling his body, his other unchanged left arm suddenly trembled violently; a fierce hidden force blasted his sleeve to pieces, and the arm exposed to the air had veins bulging like little snakes, constantly pulsing.

That palm also suddenly and eerily broadened considerably; the originally normal fingernails shot up half an inch, and their color turned an eerie pitch-black.

A moment later, the entire arm actually turned a fiery red; at a glance it looked like a flaming arm.

"Mountain-Shattering Arm? The Grand Elder actually transplanted the forelimb of the family's treasured Five Rank Demon Beast, the Blazing Mountain-Shattering Rhino, into his own body?" Staring at Mo Cheng whose arm had become extremely broad, the core high-level members of the Mo Family could not help crying out in shock.

This was Mo Cheng's trump card—he had been enduring all along, waiting for the moment Xiao Yan relaxed to deliver a fatal strike!

"Hahaha, die!" The flaming arm attacked Xiao Yan's face at a twisted angle.

But the next second, the Mountain-Shattering Arm, which had been attacking ferociously, suddenly dropped weakly; Mo Cheng, whose face had been ferocious, also lost focus in his eyes, and died an unnatural death with eyes wide open.

Xiao Yan slowly raised his foot, not even glancing at Mo Cheng.

Absolute Soul Force was Xiao Yan's true hidden trump card!

Xiao Yan was not only born with an extraordinary Spiritual Soul, but now possessing Mortal Realm Late Stage Soul Force, his Soul Technique was absolutely a killing move that took lives invisibly.

Even the Medusa Queen at Dou Huang Peak could hardly withstand Xiao Yan's Soul Shock. If Xiao Yan had not needed to question him about Qing Lin's whereabouts just now and had shown mercy, a single Soul Shock would have been enough to scatter his Spiritual Soul.

"Even if you truly have an immortal body, your Spiritual Soul isn't one, is it." Xiao Yan muttered softly.

Staring at Mo Cheng on the bright carpet, who had died with everlasting regret, the Hall was deathly silent. No one understood exactly how Mo Cheng had died.

Only Nalan Yanran saw something.

"That was Soul Force?"

Even Ge Ye did not know. Although Nalan Yanran was not an Alchemist, she was innately very sensitive to Soul Power.

The moment Xiao Yan used his Soul Technique, Nalan Yanran sensed that Xiao Yan had used Soul Force!

But because Soul Techniques had been lost, Nalan Yanran did not know what it was.

Although Xiao Yan's face bore a warm, brilliant, sunny smile, wherever his gaze swept, everyone's face changed drastically and they shrank their necks back. Their darting eyes were filled with terror, wandering aimlessly, not daring to meet Xiao Yan's gaze in the slightest.

Only Nalan Yanran dared to look him straight in the eye.

Watching Xiao Yan, who alone had turned the entire Mo Family upside down, Nalan Yanran's Jade Hand clenched tightly, her pretty face slightly pale as she stared at the youth walking slowly toward her.

Three more months! She had already been defeated three years ago—would she still be so utterly unable to withstand a single blow three years later?

Probably no one had imagined that the Mo Family's Grand Elder, who just an hour ago had been displaying grand ambitions, would now die an unnatural death in front of the Young Sect Master of Yun Lan Sect. The two scenes, worlds apart, were truly hard for people to believe.

Just as Xiao Yan was preparing to welcome Qing Lin, suddenly, a strange feeling welled up in his heart.

Xiao Yan abruptly turned his head to look outside the Hall.

Boom!!! Suddenly, a tremendous tremor came from not far from the Hall. A colossal ice wall appeared out of nowhere, but very quickly, the ice wall was actually smashed to pieces!!!

Hai Bodong had actually been attacked!!!

The sudden turn of events made everyone in the Hall, including Nalan Yanran and Xiao Yan, freeze for a moment.

Someone actually attacked a Dou Huang??!!

Xiao Yan's face darkened. EagleWings instantly unfurled, and he shot explosively toward Hai Bodong's direction.
