Chapter 64: The Family Head is Dead!

"Ugh, dead? So fast?"

Lu Xiuyuan was stunned for a moment, only then noticing the corpse at Yang Yu's feet in his peripheral vision.

It really was Ximen Kun.

This Yang Yu was ruthless enough; he probably had other ways to wipe out the Ximen Family even if the Baibao Pavilion hadn't participated, right?

Lu Xiuyuan felt no sympathy for Ximen Kun at all, his attitude remaining icy:

"Hmph! Ximen Kun's death is his own doing, but my beloved disciple's death is not just Ximen Kun's fault—the entire Ximen Family is guilty!"

"Pavilion Master Lu, what exactly do you want?!" Ximen Jinghe clenched his fists.

Lu Xiuyuan said, "I won't make things difficult for others. You are the Family Head; as long as you die to atone for your sins, the grievances between me and the Ximen Family will be settled!"

Ximen Jinghe said indignantly, "Lu Xiuyuan, you are going too far!"

"Then there is nothing left to talk about! Everyone come down, wash the Ximen Family in blood and avenge my beloved disciple!"

Lu Xiuyuan let out a muffled snort and shouted into the air.

From the Swift Wind Eagle circling high in the sky, a group of figures actually jumped down once more.

Exactly ten people!

And every one of them had a powerful aura, all at the fifth level of the King Realm or above.

"What?! Lu Xiuyuan, you sanctimonious dog!"

Ximen Jinghe was so angry his liver and gallbladder were almost splitting.

This Lu Xiuyuan was also a Half-Saint; one person alone was enough to make the Ximen Family despair.

He had actually brought ten King Rank experts as well.

He was truly determined to use the Ximen Family to be buried with Li Wei...

Unfortunately, shouting was useless.

The ten Martial Kings of the Baibao Pavilion dispersed instantly and joined the battle.

Lu Xiuyuan did not hesitate either; he drew a long sword and slashed out abruptly.

Swish!

A wave-like sword Qi crushed toward Ximen Jinghe with irresistible force.

Ximen Jinghe's pupils shrank, his profound energy surging throughout his body as he instantly blasted out more than ten palm prints, shattering Lu Xiuyuan's sword Qi.

Thanks to the effect of the Blood Burning Pill, he temporarily possessed the strength of a Half-Saint, which allowed him to neutralize Lu Xiuyuan's attack.

He could hold his own, but his uncle was in trouble.

Su Yuechan and Bai Sheng, taking advantage of Ximen Jinghe being pinned down by the Pavilion Master, immediately turned their focus and severely wounded the uncle.

Lu Xiuyuan was also quick-eyed and nimble; he followed up with another slash, cleanly cutting Ximen Jinghe's uncle in half at the waist.

"Ahhh!!"

Ximen Jinghe was nearly crazed, the blood-red color on his skin becoming even more glaring.

He no longer hoped to live; he only wanted to use all his strength to kill a few more people.

But now.

He had to face three enemies alone!

Even trading one-for-one was difficult.

"His drug effect won't last long. Stay steady, don't give him a chance."

Lu Xiuyuan, Su Yuechan, and Bai Sheng exchanged glances and reached a tacit understanding.

When people are near death, it is easy for them to erupt with power that defies logic.

Ximen Jinghe's strength on paper was also equivalent to a Half-Saint, and among the three, only the Pavilion Master was a Half-Saint; although they had a great advantage, it was impossible to kill Ximen Jinghe instantly.

Therefore, the three decided to wait until the drug's effect wore off before killing him without taking any damage.

"Ahhh! Die, die, die!"

Ximen Jinghe, like a mad dog, bombarded them with Martial Techniques.

Before long, his momentum began to wane.

On one hand, his own profound energy was being consumed rapidly.

On the other hand, the drug's effect was also weakening bit by bit...

His strength was sliding rapidly, far inferior to when he had just taken the pill.

"It's about time!"

Lu Xiuyuan, Bai Sheng, and Su Yuechan seized the opportunity and attacked simultaneously from three directions.

Slap!

Crack!

Snap!

Lu Xiuyuan's long sword was like a rainbow, directly severing Ximen Jinghe's arm starting from the shoulder.

Su Yuechan attacked from the rear, using a move of the Embrace Moon Bliss Palm to shatter a row of Ximen Jinghe's ribs.

Bai Sheng was not to be outdone; his figure descended from the sky, profound energy condensed heavily beneath his feet, falling like a mountain and smashing Ximen Jinghe until he was dazed and covered in blood...

Having suffered such heavy injuries, Ximen Jinghe's aura withered instantly.

Under the influence of the Blood Burning Pill, his sense of pain was minimal.

But his body was already riddled with holes and could no longer exert any strength.

He discovered in despair that the little remaining profound energy in his Qi Sea was also rapidly dissipating...

"Thump!"

Ximen Jinghe fell to the ground uncontrollably, supporting his body with one hand, and said in despair and unwillingness:

"As long as one person from my Ximen Family survives, they will never let you off!"

"Heh."

Su Yuechan gave a disdainful smile, her palm suddenly pressing onto Ximen Jinghe's head, as if she were about to crush it.

"Wait a moment!"

Suddenly, Yang Yu shouted and walked over quickly.

Su Yuechan was puzzled: "What is it? You don't seem like the type to leave behind a source of trouble."

Yang Yu gave a dry cough and said, "Let me handle it."

"You want to kill him yourself? Is there such a deep grudge?" Su Yuechan was somewhat amused.

Yang Yu said, "Uh, it's mainly because my hands are itching."

In truth, he had discovered a trait on Ximen Jinghe.

Ever since Baibao Pavilion joined the battle, the other members of the Ximen Family had been completely beaten to a pulp; Yang Yu was in no danger at all, and was even a bit bored.

So he had used the Scan skill casually.

There was actually an unexpected harvest!

When he first met Ximen Jinghe, this person had no traits on him.

But now, he did.

Whether the same person has traits or not is not fixed.

"He has completely lost the ability to resist, right?" Yang Yu asked after getting closer.

Su Yuechan nodded and said, "He was besieged by three experts, and his Essence Blood is about to burn out; if he could still resist, he wouldn't be human."

Only then did Yang Yu stand next to Ximen Jinghe and, with a *whoosh*, pull out the Taixu Divine Sword.

"This... is it really a Divine Sword?"

Ximen Jinghe felt a wave of palpitations.

Even at this moment, he still felt a strong desire to survive and said in a trembling voice:

"Yang Yu, the Ximen Family and you originally had no deep hatred... My son is already dead, if you let..."

However, Yang Yu ignored him completely and swept his sword across.

*Crack! *

Ximen Jinghe was decapitated, his head rolling away with a rumble.

"Letting you die under a Divine Sword can be considered doing you a favor," Yang Yu sighed.

Under normal circumstances, he certainly wouldn't be able to kill an expert of this level.

This time, he had taken a shortcut and could directly go to claim the kill.

【Ding! Congratulations to the host for killing the target and successfully extracting the traits—Burning Essence Blood, Timed Strength Surge! Reward: 2000 points!】

Yang Yu was overjoyed.

Sure enough, as long as he was the one to make the kill, he could extract the traits; the process didn't matter.

The content of the traits also left Yang Yu quite satisfied.

In reality, it was just the effect of the Blood Burning Pill.

However, the negative cost and the positive effect had been separated, forming two traits.

This meant that Yang Yu could keep "Timed Strength Surge" for his own people and leave "Burning Essence Blood" for his enemies.

Both were lethal weapons in actual combat.

He could get the satisfaction twice!

"By the way, System, I gave him the Green Hat Turtle trait earlier; is there any way to get it back?"

【Traits already applied to others cannot be retrieved. When the target dies, the trait automatically disappears.】

"Forget it then."

Yang Yu didn't dwell on it too much.

A trait like Green Hat Turtle had average practical value and was mainly used to disgust people; if it was gone, it was gone.

After a brief exchange with the system, Yang Yu kicked Ximen Jinghe's head away and shouted loudly:

"The Family Head of the Ximen Family is dead!"
