Chapter 491: Blood Debt Must Be Paid in Blood!_1

The night was deep and silent.

Yin Tian still remained on the platform of Xuanyuan Hall, sitting in quiet meditation.

Behind him, more than three hundred corpses were piled up together, forming a majestically grand scene.

Above the ruins, occasional sparks emerged, flickering into life before being extinguished by the wind.

Yin Tian had not chosen to leave this place.

He was waiting.

Waiting for tomorrow.

He had already called Sir Niu, preparing a lavish gift for him to deliver his congratulations to the Xuanyuan Family.

At the same time, he was also waiting for someone else’s arrival.

He believed that Xuanyuan Hall was so important to the Xuanyuan Family that they could not possibly be unaware of the abnormalities here.

Time passed, and from a distance came the sound of footsteps.

"Dad really has gone too far, assigning Xuanyuan Hall to such a remote location when we have ample space at home, easily enough to support three hundred more people."

Accompanied by twenty-some bodyguards, a person grumbled as they drew closer.

That person was Xuanyuan Jianxue!

His face bore a displeased expression. "Every time I come here I have to climb mountains and traverse ridges. When I become the Family Head of the Xuanyuan Family, I’ll move Xuanyuan Hall to our estate..."

He was speaking when he arrived nearby.

Then, he noticed a shadowy figure that resembled a small hill.

"What is this thing?"

Xuanyuan Jianxue grumbled as he walked forward, "And there’s a stench of blood. What on earth have these people been doing!"

He took out his flashlight and shone it ahead.

And then, he saw a corpse appear right in front of him.

The face on the body was twisted, its blood long since coagulated, and in the darkness of the night, it looked truly terrifying and horrifying!

"Ah!!"

Xuanyuan Jianxue screamed in horror, falling on his behind.

"Master, Master!"

"Are you alright!"

The bodyguards rushed forward, their flashlights chaotically swinging until they finally got a clear view of the scene.

"This..."

The more than twenty bodyguards were also dumbfounded.

"How... how could this be..."

Xuanyuan Jianxue, trembling, spoke, "Who... who did this!"

"It was me."

A ghostly voice carried over.

Xuanyuan Jianxue and others all turned to look, seeing a person approaching from afar.

"Yin Tian! It’s you!!"

Xuanyuan Jianxue shrieked, never having imagined he would encounter Yin Tian here. "All these people... did you kill them?!"

"Yes, I did."

Yin Tian’s face bore a cold smile. "Your Xuanyuan Family is quite capable, to have fostered a force of dead soldiers on such a mountain."

"This... this has nothing to do with me... please..."

Xuanyuan Jianxue pleaded.

But in the next second, Yin Tian had already charged forward.

In the darkness, he seemed to become a specter, silently reaping life after life.

In less than a minute, all the bodyguards brought by Xuanyuan Jianxue were dead by Yin Tian’s hand!

Thud!

Xuanyuan Jianxue, who had just stood up, fell to the ground once more.

Yin Tian stood in front of Xuanyuan Jianxue, looking down with a cold stare at this Young Master of the Xuanyuan Family.

"Have you ever heard a saying?"

"What... what saying..."

"Blood debt must be paid in blood!"

Yin Tian’s voice burrowed into Xuanyuan Jianxue’s ears, chilling him to the core.

The next second, everything went black before Xuanyuan Jianxue’s eyes, and he fainted...

The next day dawned early.

The Xuanyuan estate was decked out in lanterns and streamers, transformed into a sea of red.

Many guests had arrived early with gifts to partake in the day’s celebrations.

Xuanyuan Wangting, dressed in a tailored changshan, stood at the entrance, smilingly greeting the arriving guests, but his eyes betrayed an irrepressible gravity.

The previous day, he had lost contact with Xuanyuan Hall, and then his son had not returned home all night.

His eyelids twitched incessantly, as if foretelling some impending disaster.

However, as the head of the mightiest family in the Imperial Capital and the Overlord of the Inner City, he absolutely could not let it show.

Still, his heart was somewhat uneasy, sensing that today’s events might not unfold smoothly.

"It can’t be..."

Xuanyuan Wangting shook his head slightly. "Everything has been prepared, how could there be an accident? I must be overthinking..."

Time ticked by.

Even the vast Xuanyuan estate was filled with visitors.

Nearly every family in the Inner City had postponed their business to rush here, fearing the Xuanyuan Family’s grudge.

More than an hour later, the auspicious moment had arrived.

Xuanyuan Wangting ordered the gates to the Xuanyuan estate closed and returned to the venue with a smiling face.

The ceremony was about to begin.

Xuanyuan Yingying and Jiang Qing, dressed in traditional wedding attire, gazed at one another.

The host, beaming, was just about to speak with a voice he had tuned for half the day to be both excited and sonorous when a loud bang sounded from the gate.

Everyone turned around to look.

In the next second, the gate was blown away by a massive force.

Simultaneously, a figure carrying something enormous stepped boldly inside...
