Nine Dragons Saint Ancestor

Chapter 768: 768, Those who know better should hurry up and get lost!

”Yang Qiwu, you guys are really like persistent ghosts!”

A voice that seemed to squeeze through clenched teeth was heard; it turned out that Hong Liu had finally recognized the person who was slowly emerging from the dense forest. Hearing this name, Yun Xiao’s suspicions in his heart became more certain.

Rustle, rustle, rustle...

A series of sounds followed, and then over a dozen figures appeared in front of the camp. Their aura was much more formidable than the dozen or so people from the Hu Family.

Especially the leader, according to Yun Xiao’s sensing, had probably reached the Peak of Qi Seeking Realm, even stronger than the Great Elder of the Hu Family, Hu Yuqing.

”Ha ha, you remnants of the Hu Family, did you really think you could escape the grasp of my Yang Family?”

The leader took a step forward and laughed heartily towards the sky, causing the faces of the Hu Family members to turn extremely ugly. They had chosen secluded paths during their journey, but unexpectedly, they were still caught up by the Yang Family.

”Yang Qiwu, your Yang Family is so ruthless in its actions, you will surely be punished by the heavens!”

Sensing the powerful aura of the other party, Hu Yuqing also did not show any signs of weakness, even in the face of the Great Elder of the Yang Family, a strong cultivator at the Peak of Qi Seeking Realm, and he cursed loudly at this moment.

”Hu Yuqing, you must understand the law of the jungle on the Continent, that the strong prey on the weak. Your Hu Family has swaggered around enough in Ancient Moon City, it’s time to move aside!”

In response to the accusations from the Great Elder of the Hu Family, Yang Qiwu merely sneered. After his taunting words, nobody could refute; although his words were domineering, they were a reality in the Nine Dragons Continent.

For example, Yun Xiao had observed throughout his journey, whether in the Hidden Dragon Continent or this Tenglong Continent, the constant strife between major families and sects was unending. Today you destroy me, tomorrow someone else destroys you, power shifts unpredictably, truly hard to foresee.

”That Miss Hu of the escaped Hu Family members must be inside this tent, right? My family’s young master specifically ordered that she must be captured alive without the slightest harm!”

Yang Qiwu turned his head, glanced at a particular tent, and when he saw the graceful figure sitting cross-legged inside the tent door, his eyes lit up. His words also brought a smile to the faces of the Yang Family members nearby, but he seemed to have completely overlooked the dark-skinned young man standing in front of the tent.

From these words, it was not difficult to hear that the so-called young master of the Yang Family harbored lascivious thoughts towards Hu Ying’er, and even amidst the annihilation of the Hu Family, he still harbored these ongoing indecent desires.

”With just that young lad Yang Wanliu, he dreams of touching our Miss, simply laughable!”

Hong Liu, who had always held great respect for Hu Ying’er, was now utterly infuriated. Upon his loud shout, he preemptively attacked Yang Qiwu, the leading elder of the Yang Family.

”Just an ant!”

Seeing this individual, who was only in the Early Stage of the Qi Seeking Realm, daring to make a move against him, Yang Qiwu let out a cold snort and then casually waved his hand as if swatting a fly.

Bang!

Hong Liu’s huge body was instantly sent flying, unfortunately landing right on the pile of fire that had burned almost completely, and when he barely managed to crawl up, he was covered in ashes and utterly disheveled.

Fortunately, Hong Liu was tough-skinned and practiced an Earth Attribute Cultivation Technique. His physical strength was also extraordinary. Despite appearing extremely disheveled, he didn’t suffer any severe internal injuries.

However, just one move let Hong Liu recognize the gap between him and Yang Qiwu, so his expression became extremely ugly. It seemed that this time being caught up by the Yang Family, the last surviving lineage of the Hu Family might genuinely be decimated.

”Hong Liu, I’ll hold off that old guy Yang Qiwu, you find an opportunity to take Ying’er away!”

At this moment, the Great Elder of the Hu Family, Hu Yuqing, had no better options. He could only try to hold back Yang Qiwu, their strongest opponent. Perhaps this could allow Hong Liu to seize a chance to escape this desperate situation with his only niece.

For some reason, at this critical moment, Hu Yuqing’s gaze suddenly turned in a certain direction. There, standing blankly was a dark-faced young man, raising a slight hope in him.

Although he had only spent one night with that young man named Xingchen, because of the previous Double Flower Pure Lotus Body, Hu Yuqing inexplicably felt more confident in him.

”Ah, it seems I was overthinking!”

However, when Hu Yuqing sensed the barely discernible Culturalivation at the Early Stage of the Spirit Vein Realm from the young man, he sighed. You must know, even a common guard of the Hu Family would probably have the Cultivation of the Spirit Vein Realm Early Stage. How could such strength turn the tide?

”Yang Qiwu, dare you fight with me for three hundred rounds?”

Hu Yuqing shook his head, and in the next moment, he locked his aura onto Yang Qiwu. The loud shout from his mouth also demonstrated his determination, even though his Meridian Qi Cultivation was one small realm lower than Yang Qiwu’s.

”Since you, old fool, are seeking death, this Elder has no choice but to oblige!”

Yang Qiwu could tell at a glance that he and Hu Yuqing were old rivals, having previously contended equally in Ancient Moon City on behalf of their families. Both were at the Late Stage of Qi Seeking Realm, and had countless overt and covert battles, yet neither could gain the upper hand.

However, later, the Yang Family Head somehow acquired some extraordinary items, which not only broke his own strength through to the Early Stage of the Seeking Origin Realm but also greatly elevated the strength of other elders in the Yang Family, such as Yang Qiwu, who broke through to the Peak of Qi Seeking Realm.

Because of this, the Yang Family rose rapidly and strongly annihilated the Hu Family, even the Hu Family’s Tomb Master died in that battle, leaving only the Great Elder Hu Yuqing who escaped with a few others.

But with the principle of completely eliminating future trouble, coupled with the fact that the Young Master of the Yang Family couldn’t forget Hu Ying’er, Yang Qiwu still pursued the remaining members of the Hu Family to the depths of Yulei Mountain.

Reaching the Peak of Qi Seeking Realm, how could Yang Qiwu possibly fear a Hu Family Great Elder who was still stuck in his old ways? Thus, as soon as they clashed, he gained an absolute advantage, which significantly boosted his confidence.

”You go capture Hu Ying’er, and remember what the Young Master said. Do not harm her in the slightest, or else you’ll face family punishment!”

While handling Hu Yuqing’s attacks effortlessly, Yang Qiwu didn’t forget the orders given by the Young Master of the Yang Family before departing. After he shouted his command, several Yang Family guards moved towards the tent where Hu Ying’er was located.

Although Yang Qiwu was a Great Elder of the Yang Family, unlike Hu Yuqing in the Hu Family, he was only from a branch family. The Young Master Yang Wanliu was destined to become the next Family Head. For the sake of future relations, he wanted to make good use of this event.

”Whoever dares take one more step, dies!”

At this moment, the remaining Hu Family guards, led by Hong Liu, saw him standing in front of the tent with a burly stature, appearing imposing, which inadvertently made Yun Xiao next to him look even more frail.

”Hong Liu, at a time like this, why show off?”

Right after Hong Liu’s powerful words, a jeering laugh came from the Yang Family camp, followed by the rush of wind and a torrent of powerful energy that immediately changed Hong Liu’s expression.

Bang!

A loud noise sounded, and Hong Liu involuntarily took a step back. When he raised his head, he saw that the person opposite was not too unfamiliar, also an old rival from the Yang Family.

”Yang Pu!”

These two words were almost squeezed out from between Hong Liu’s teeth, as he clearly understood the origins of his opponent, especially his Meridian Qi Cultivation that had reached the genuine Middle Stage of Qi Seeking Realm.

According to what Hong Liu knew, Yang Pu was not a direct descendant of the Yang Family but was picked up by the Yang Family Head from a junk heap one year, and to repay this kindness, Yang Pu stayed with the Yang Family, took on the surname ”Pu,” meaning everlasting servant of the Yang Family, and vowed never to betray.

As Guard Captains of their respective families, Hong Liu and Yang Pu were old rivals, but he was always on the same level until one day he discovered that Yang Pu had actually advanced ahead of him to the Middle Stage of Qi Seeking Realm.

Facing Yang Pu again, Hong Liu undoubtedly felt immense pressure. However, to protect the young lady in the tent behind him from dishonor, he refused to step back.

”Such a stubborn guy!”

Although Yang Pu was a notch stronger in strength than Hong Liu, in this favorable situation, he would not fight desperately. Therefore, with one risking everything and the other being cautious, Yang Pu struggled to break through and capture Hu Ying’er quickly.

As Yang Pu was held back by Hong Liu, the other Yang Family guards did not slacken at all, but as they rushed towards the tent, most were blocked by the remaining Hu Family guards.

However, the Yang Family guards were more numerous than the Hu Family, and additionally having just dealt a sneak attack on the outskirts and killed several Hu Family guards, the Yang Family was unmatched by the Hu Family in both quantity and quality at this moment.

Fortunately, the Hu Family guards fought desperately, making it difficult for their opponents to break through. Unfortunately, this act of desperation could only stall their own opponents, leaving them powerless against the extra Yang Family guards.

”Kid, you don’t seem to be from the Hu Family. If you know what’s good for you, make way, unless you want to move your head!”

One fairly decent looking Yang Family guard took a few steps forward, seeing a dark-skinned youth standing dumbfounded in front of the tent of the Hu Family’s young lady, and harshly issued a threatening statement.

Since Yun Xiao’s clothing was quite different from that of the Hu Family and his face was also unfamiliar, the Hu Family guard recognized at first glance that this young man was not from the Hu Family, so to avoid further complications, he opted not to kill more people but merely issued a warning.
