Chapter 51: Chickens Flying, Dogs Jumping
Yo, I thought who was coming, it turns out to be the lowly Li Yilan who escaped from the dog kennel.
If I'm not mistaken, you came to retrieve your parents' remains, right?
A gate guard leader of the Xiao Family, upon seeing the visitor was Li Yilan, casually sneered: "Didn't the young master tell you to come again at the Grand Baihua Assembly? Why did you come early?"
Could it be that you miss the dog food in the dog kennel?
You really are a nasty little brat; after a few days apart, you've become even more lovely and spirited.
I have a humble request; before you eat the dog food, could you let this young master have a bit of fun?
Hahaha!
That gate guard leader laughed uncontrollably.
But the next second.
Hum!
A sword aura flashed past.
Pfft!
That leader's head flew off directly.
Due to the speed, after the head landed, it even had time to glance at the torso that was still spurting blood without a head, but there was no smile left.
The sudden relocation of the head also left the remaining gate guards stunned like wooden chickens.
What, you dare to kill someone at the Xiao Family gate?
This is the Xiao Family; aren't you afraid of death?
Under the crowd's series of terrified and incredulous gazes, Li Yilan sliced off their heads with a single sword.
Instantly, blood spurted wildly, the scene extremely bloody.
What?
She actually dared to provoke and kill at the Xiao Family main gate!
This scene instantly attracted countless Xiao Family disciples to watch; they all exclaimed in shock, and no one had ever dared to openly kill at the Xiao Family gate.
Li Yilan glanced back at the South Gate and coldly said: "The Xiao Family South Gate shall cease to exist from this moment."
Buzz!
She swung several sword auras, with a fierce sword intent, like countless threads threading a needle, piercing the South Gate building.
Boom!
The magnificent South Gate instantly shattered and collapsed.
Li Yilan said calmly: "Disciples have cleared the path for the master and all elders; please enter."
Immediately.
She then controlled her sword and slaughtered the Xiao Family onlookers.
Originally.
The Xiao Family once surrounded and slaughtered the Li Clan disciples, sparing none, even the old, weak, women, and children; now she naturally will not show mercy.
Everyone in the Xiao Family must die.
She said.
It's useless no matter who comes.
Li Yilan at the Nascent Soul realm was unstoppable; wherever she went, Xiao Family disciples' cries of misery and pleas for mercy filled the air.
But it was useless.
This world is just like that: the weak are prey to the strong; if I am weak, you kill my kin; if I am strong, I kill your kin.
Everything is decided by fists; there's nothing to cry about.
Because crying is also useless.
Seeing this, the Xiao Family crowd was terrified and panicked.
Enemy attack!
Report!
Quickly report to the family head!
Such sounds echoed through the four gates of the Xiao Family.
Because Lin Yang's order to them was "leave not a blade of grass".
So.
After breaking through the gate, the elders of the four directions almost went on a killing spree.
Wherever they went, even dogs had to suffer two blows.
Facing all this, Lin Yang remained calm.
In his view, there is no such thing as profit above all; right and wrong come first, profit later.
If you're wrong, I'll kill you; if you're right, we can discuss profit.
That's just how simple and brutal it is.
———————————
In the Xiao Family Hall, Xiao Family Head Xiao Potian was receiving a middle-aged man with a round, prosperous face and a slightly protruding belly, resembling Maitreya Buddha.
Hahaha, Qingmu Sect Leader, I'm not boasting—do you see my arm?
Xiao Potian raised his arm and coldly said: "Half a month ago, Lu Wuqing of the Qingyun Sect sliced off my arm with a single sword, yet now my arm has grown back intact."
You must be able to see some clues, Qingmu Sect Leader, and notice the extraordinary backer behind my Xiao Family.
The Qingmu Sect Leader chuckled: "Limb regeneration—such a technique is indeed extraordinarily profound."
The Azure Wood Sect Master before me is the sect master of the Hundred Flowers Valley's Azure Wood Sect and, together with the Li Yilan family, belongs to the descendants of the Hundred Flowers Immortal Maiden.
"That's natural." Xiao Potian continued to boast: "Now that our two sides have united in alliance, sharing hatred for the enemy, when we obtain the Purple Spirit Flower to help my son revive his Blood Pupils, thereafter the Hundred Flowers Valley will be whatever you, Qingmu Sect Leader, say goes, even the whole Qingzhou, no, the whole Xuanhuang Continent, will be what we say goes, hahaha!"
"Come, let us alliance brothers drink a cup, swearing not to be born on the same year, month, and day, but to die on the same year, month, and day; thereafter we will help each other, if Qingmu Sect has trouble, my Xiao family will lead the charge, if my Xiao family has trouble, Qingmu Sect must also lead the charge."
"Is that okay!"
Upon hearing that, the Qingmu Sect Leader's right eyelid twitched, and he had a lingering feeling of unease.
However.
Having arrived at the Xiao family, he had already made up his mind; he would not rest until he learned the purpose of this trip.
He smiled smoothly and said: "Good, we won't seek to be born on the same year, month, and day, but to die on the same year, month, and day; thereafter, your Xiao family's affairs, Qingmu Sect will lead the charge, and Qingmu Sect's affairs, your Xiao family must also lead the charge."
"Come, drink!"
The two, filled with heroic spirit and righteousness as lofty as the clouds, clinked cups and then drained them in one gulp.
But just then.
Just as the two finished their oath, a gate guard rushed in panic and said: "Clan chief, it's terrible, something big has happened— a group of elders has stormed the North Gate, and the gate walls have been split in half."
"What?" Xiao Potian looked utterly incredulous.
The Xiao family, which dominates the region, actually has someone daring to chop a wall of their North Gate— it's practically digging on the head of the Tai Sui, utterly bullying.
Are they tired of living?
Meanwhile, the Qingmu Elder beside him had not yet swallowed the oath wine.
He glanced at Xiao Potian, then at the wine cup.
No way, no way.
He had just sworn brotherhood with Xiao Potian, uttering grand vows, when the Xiao family ran into trouble.
Is it his bad luck, or did Xiao Potian deliberately set a trap for him?
Can he now spit out the wine and still regret it?
And at this moment.
Another gate guard rushed in panic to report: "Clan chief, it's terrible, something big has happened— the West Gate was smashed flat by a huge iron hammer, a group of old men came slaughtering all the way, and many people died."
Before Xiao Potian could react.
"Clan chief, it's terrible, something big has happened— the East Gate formation was broken by a group of old men; they burst out from inside and slaughtered in all directions, many died, even the family's dogs were killed, several of them." Another guard reported.
"What?? How could this happen?" Xiao Potian's heart was struck with immense shock, like a bolt from the blue.
Meanwhile, the Qingmu Elder beside him hurriedly spat the wine back into the cup, his heart filled with extreme regret.
Having just sworn not to seek to be born on the same year, month, and day, but to die on the same year, month, and day— could it really come true so soon?
"Just who has the gall to dare storm straight into my Xiao family?"
Xiao Potian looked at the several people.
The North Gate guard shook his head.
The West Gate guard shook his head.
The East Gate guard shook his head.
Xiao Potian exploded in rage: "A bunch of useless trash, what are you good for?"
He unleashed a surge of power, instantly killing the three.
"Who? Who exactly is it?"
And at this moment.
"Report, clan chief."
"The South Gate is under emergency; Li Yilan leads a group, coming all the way slaughtering, and we simply cannot resist."
