Chapter 328: Throw Them Out

On this day, just as the Disciples of the Langya Pavilion were changing shifts, they saw a pitch-black rift suddenly appear in mid-air, and immediately after, a figure in red fell from the high sky, holding something in their arms.

"That is..." The Disciple looked at the figure in the sky in confusion, stunned for a moment, then suddenly alarmed; their form shifted, appearing in the air to catch the figure in red and bring them down.

"Quick! Report to the Pavilion Master, something major has happened!" Looking at the figure covered in wounds before them, the Disciple's tone was filled with trembling.

The other person also knew the severity of the situation and, without hesitation, quickly went to report.

………

The air inside the room fell into a freeze.

Finally, Yi Huang, who was sitting by the bed, stood up. Xiao Han hurried forward, about to speak, but was stopped by a look from her.

"How is it?" Once outside the room, Xiao Han could no longer hold back and asked.

"Nothing serious." Yi Huang's tone was slightly more relaxed.

"Although the wounds look quite severe, most are superficial, and combined with excessive exhaustion, there will be no major issues; after taking a Medicinal Pill, there will be no problem."

"And the child?"

"The child was protected very well, no major issues, just fell into a deep sleep," Yi Huang said in a gentle tone.

"Mm." Xiao Han finally set his heart at ease. Judging from the current scene, it was a foregone conclusion that the others had met with trouble; if he could not keep Xin'er and the child safe, his guilt would be immense.

Next...

"Three days from now, summon all the Elders for a meeting!" Xiao Han's voice, devoid of the slightest warmth, rang out.

"Before then, investigate the cause and effect of the matter clearly!"

"I want to see exactly what kind of madness the Soul Clan is suffering from, to dare to touch even the people of my Langya Pavilion!"

"If they hope I will consider the big picture and be afraid to act, then the Soul Clan is overthinking it!"

There was no need to wait for Xin'er to wake up; the identity of the other party was analyzed through the aura remaining on her wounds.

With an evil soul aura mixed with a hint of blood, only the Soul Clan in the entire continent had this ability.

"Mm."

Yi Huang did not object, her beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, and the killing intent on her body rose slightly. She merely took the initiative to restrain her own aggression, but if necessary, this hidden ferocity would become sharp claws to tear the enemy apart.

Immediately, Yi Huang's expression changed slightly, "Does this matter need to be told to Lao Ye?"

"Tell him!" Xiao Han paused, then nodded helplessly, "How could such a big matter be hidden?"

"But he must be summoned back first; we will talk once he returns to the Pavilion!"

He was terrified that if Ye Jianxin found out beforehand, he would likely fight the people of the Soul Clan to the death on the spot.

"Good!" Yi Huang left in a hurry.

Following the issuance of the order, the entire Langya Pavilion began to operate rapidly once again. In less than a day, with the powerful intelligence capabilities of the Langya Pavilion, the sequence of events from that day was presented on Xiao Han's desk.

Many Elders who were away were also urgently recalled by the Langya Pavilion. The massive momentum caused the entire Central Plains to fall into a momentary state of turmoil, with people secretly guessing which death-defying person could make the Langya Pavilion go to such great lengths.

……

Three days later, inside the Langya Pavilion conference hall.

Xiao Han sat at the head of the table, with Yi Huang and Ye Jianxin on his left and right. The latter had already learned the cause and effect of being summoned back; there was no change on his face, but everyone knew how terrifying the volcano hidden beneath the calm water was, ready to erupt.

Encountering such a major event, even the Langya Pavilion's hands-off Elders were called over. This lineup was significantly stronger than when Xiao Han had ordered the destruction of two super factions.

Xiao Han tapped his finger lightly on the table, signaling to the crowd:

"I trust you all already know the reason for convening this meeting."

"Two questions..." Xiao Han said.

"One, the Soul Clan actually moved against Langya Pavilion Elder Ye Shenghan, so how exactly should we 'repay' them."

"Two, we..."

Before Xiao Han could finish, he was suddenly interrupted by a voice:

"Reporting to the Pavilion Master, Soul Hall Vice Hall Master Hun Ying... requests an audience!"

The person who came to report swallowed silently as they spoke. Were these people from the Soul Clan tired of living?

Just facing the gazes of the high-level officials that could almost swallow a person alive, they dared to come against the wind; they were truly warriors!

"Hun Ying? Soul Hall?" Xiao Han leaned back on the armrest and sneered:

"It seems the people of the Soul Clan are truly very courageous!"

"Let him in."

"Yes!"

The reporter had not been gone for ten minutes before returning with Hun Ying. They cast a look filled with killing intent at the latter and then quietly retreated, leaving the Vice Hall Master to endure the killing intent of the entire hall alone.

"Puff!" Just as Hun Ying stood silently facing everyone, a muffled sound rang out. Ye Jianxin was seen expressionlessly tossing away the armrest that had turned to dust in his palm.

Hun Ying was also suffering bitterly in his heart. What the hell is this! The order was given by the clan, and the executors were the experts of the clan, yet they had to send him, the second-in-command of an outer force, to deliver the message.

Although he was a Three-Star Dou Sheng, he had not yet become arrogant enough to think he could escape alive in front of a room full of experts. If he were the least bit careless, he would end up with no place to be buried.

"Vice Hall Master Hun Ying, what brings you here today!" Xiao Han asked with a half-smile.

"Could it be that Hun Miesheng wants to issue a war challenge to my Langya Pavilion?"

The further he went, the colder his tone became.

Although Hun Ying was panicked to the extreme inside, he showed no fear on the surface; after all, he represented the face of the Soul Clan, so how could he show a cowardly posture.

He immediately said: "Pavilion Master Su, this Hall has come here hoping that our two houses can restore friendly relations."

"Restore friendly relations?" Xiao Han repeated, and everyone secretly laughed in their hearts.

"When have our two houses ever been friendly?" Xiao Han asked "puzzled," his tone extremely sincere.

Hun Ying stiffened, his mouth twitching. Can't you tell this is just polite diplomatic talk? Is tearing me down fun?

He suppressed the urge to retort, otherwise, he really wouldn't be able to walk out today.

Hun Ying smiled: "Young Master Ye of your esteemed Pavilion is currently a guest in our clan..."

"Boom!" Ye Jianxin could no longer endure the fury in his heart and was about to erupt on the spot.

"Lao Ye, calm down!" Xiao Han used the pressure of a Nine-Star Dou Sheng to restrain the figure about to rise, secretly transmitting his voice.

"Hoo... hoo... hoo..." After repeating this several times, Ye Jianxin barely suppressed his desire to finish off the other party.

Hun Ying seemed not to notice and said, "My clan hopes to conclude a five-year peace treaty with Langya Pavilion, to trade what we have for what we lack, and to have more exchanges."

"This is some sincerity from my clan," Hun Ying said, taking out a ball of light; before anyone could react, it flashed before their eyes and appeared in Xiao Han's hand.

Xiao Han pointed a finger, and the image within the ball of light appeared before everyone's eyes.

The content was brief, showing only Ye Shenghan sitting cross-legged in a plaza, bound by chains and covered in wounds; although she appeared to have suffered greatly, her eyes remained bright and piercing, her expression cold, revealing no emotion.

"Damn it!" Someone cursed under their breath, while more people remained silent, silently clenching their fists until the veins on their hands bulged.

Sharp gazes shot toward Hun Ying in the center; with a single command, they could instantly kill the latter, or capture him to deal with him properly.

"Very good!" Without the expected burst of rage, Xiao Han just smiled and said,

"We have received the Soul Clan's sincerity."

"Now, let me show you the sincerity of Langya Pavilion."

For some reason, Hun Ying had an ominous premonition.

The thought had just arisen when, the next instant...

"Ugh!" Hun Ying only felt his left side grow light; looking over, he discovered in horror that his left arm had vanished, the pervasive cold air numbing his nerves and instantly freezing his blood so that not a single drop flowed out.

Immediately after, intense pain followed.

"Throw him out!" This was the last sentence Hun Ying heard before losing consciousness.
