Nine Dragons Saint Ancestor

Yun Xiao and the Emperor Canglong Palace hold an irreconcilable feud, so it’s natural that he harbors no goodwill towards its subordinate Emperor Palaces. Upon hearing Zhuo Bufeng’s words, even if they let him leave, he definitely wouldn’t.

More than a month ago, Yun Xiao had already killed many cultivators from the Emperor Palace. Even the Emperor Palace Inspector Lou Liheng fell by his hand, so why bother about these extra few?

If the opponent’s strength reached the Holy Rank Third Realm, Yun Xiao would likely turn away without another word, but these few mere pawns don’t concern him at all.

At least with Yun Xiao’s current strength, below the Holy Rank Third Realm, even at Half-step Holy Rank, he wouldn’t worry much. If he revealed all his cards, he could be considered invincible below the Holy Rank.

Especially that leading fellow, merely a cultivator of the Floating Life Realm Late Stage, dared to speak to him like this. Yun Xiao is determined to teach him some reverence for the strong.

”Zhuo Bufeng, this matter concerns no others. If you want my life, Xu Qingshan, then come down and take it!”

As soon as Zhuo Bufeng finished speaking, and Yun Xiao intended to respond, the young man below spoke first. Xu Qingshan, by nature kind, naturally didn’t want to see an innocent person lose their life because he fled here.

In reality, Xu Qingshan hadn’t sensed Yun Xiao’s Meridian Qi Cultivation, though the opponent could fly, evidently reached the Floating Life Realm level, but his age appeared too young.

Here, in the extremely remote Western Regions, even the most powerful family should merely have entered the early Floating Life Realm. How could they be a match for Zhuo Bufeng?

Moreover, Zhuo Bufeng brought several elders from the Jade Sword Sect, one of whom reached Lingyun Realm Early Stage. This force truly caused Xu Qingshan not to want to drag the rough-clothed youngster into this.

”Xu Qingshan, you’re quite loyal, but now even if this kid wants to leave, he can’t!”

However, when Xu Qingshan assumed Zhuo Bufeng wouldn’t complicate matters, the latter sneered coldly, then turned his gaze towards Yun Xiao, saying sharply, ”Kid, I’ve given you a chance earlier; it’s time to pay for your stupidity now!”

It seemed both Zhuo Bufeng and Xu Qingshan believed the rough-clothed, young boy was at most at the Floating Life Realm Early Stage, and once reaching the Heaven Rank, became arrogant.

Zhuo Bufeng was inherently ruthless, coupled with a Lingyun Realm Early Stage elder from the Jade Sword Sect at his side—how could he possibly be concerned about a young man in his early twenties? At this moment, he felt quite pleased with himself.

”Kid, I have a question for you. If you answer well, perhaps I’ll let you keep your whole corpse!”

Suddenly, Zhuo Qingfeng recalled something and directly asked, but his tone contained a heavy threat, ending with, ”If your answer doesn’t satisfy me, I’ll make you wish you were dead!”

”What question?”

Seeing the opponent jumping around like a clown, Yun Xiao didn’t rush to act but instead teasingly countered, making Zhuo Qingfeng believe the rough-clothed kid had backed down.

”This place is quite close to Yongxiu City. Have you seen anyone from the Yongxiu City Emperor Palace while in the Yannan Mountain Range?”

Zhuo Bufeng asked precisely about this. His Jade Sword Sect had connected with the Ye City Emperor Palace, naturally wanting to expand relations. If he could find the chief of the Yongxiu City Emperor Palace, it would definitely be beneficial.

Of course, the most important thing was that Zhuo Bufeng had heard in Yongxiu City that the Emperor Palace Director Fei Qingchen didn’t come alone; he was accompanied by a Canglong Emperor Palace Inspector, Lou Liheng.

In Lou Liheng’s position, the Emperor Palace directors of Yongxiu City pale in comparison. Even if the strengths are similar, their status and rank are vastly different.

Zhuo Bufeng asked this to advance further; should he gain favor with the inspector, possibly both the Jade Sword Sect and himself wouldn’t just rely on the Ye City Emperor Palace but rather the entire Canglong Emperor Palace.

This Jade Sword Sect genius thought quite far ahead, hence he asked directly, though he didn’t expect to get the answer he wanted.

After all, the rough-clothed youngster’s age was far too young; with such youth and cultivation level, how could he possibly have any connection with such Heavenly Realm experts like Fei Qingchen and Lou Liheng?

”Truth be told, I’ve indeed seen those people you’re talking about!”

Upon hearing Zhuo Bufeng’s question, a peculiar glint flashed through Yun Xiao’s eyes, then he replied leisurely. This unexpected answer left not only Zhuo Bufeng stunned but also Xu Qingshan below with rising doubts.

Because this answer differed from what they imagined, Zhuo Bufeng, initially harboring little hope, was suddenly overjoyed.

”Where did you see them? Tell me, and I’ll give you a swift end!”

Zhuo Bufeng appeared quite eager, and as his urgent voice fell, the rough-clothed young man extended a hand pointing to a spot below.

”The people from Yongxiu City Emperor Palace, including the Emperor Palace Inspector Lou Liheng, are all dead!”

Yun Xiao’s eyes held a faint smile as his finger pointed towards the location of the Nine Revolutions Golden Palace Array, where there lay several uncorrupted corpses.

Since Lou Liheng and Fei Qingchen had both been killed by Yun Xiao’s Dragon Taming Sword earlier, they had fallen to the ground after death. The nature of the Nine Revolutions Golden Palace Array naturally wouldn’t affect their bodies.

”Their corpses... are right there!”

Seeing Zhuo Bufeng and the others turn their gaze, Yun Xiao spoke again, his voice containing a hint of peculiarity, even with a flicker of golden light.

”What... what is that?”

Following Yun Xiao’s direction, Zhuo Bufeng immediately saw several corpses in a strange place below, his eyes involuntarily emitting a golden light, his body trembling violently.

However, because it was too far away, and not all the corpses were facing up, Zhuo Bufeng couldn’t see clearly, but he did not entirely disbelieve Yun Xiao’s words.

An Emperor Palace Inspector holds such a high status that if Zhuo Bufeng truly found their corpses, it might just be a great achievement, giving him more reasons to deal with Canglong Emperor Palace Headquarters.

”Sixth Elder, you go and take a look!”

Perhaps out of caution or disdain for such trivial matters as retrieving corpses, at this moment, Zhuo Bufeng did not personally go down to inspect the corpses but sent the Sixth Elder of the Jade Sword Sect instead.

The people in their group had all seen portraits of Fei Qingchen and Lou Liheng at the Yongxiu City Emperor Palace, so it didn’t matter who went to check. If they were indeed Lou Liheng, Fei Qingchen, and others, they naturally had to bring the corpses back to the Emperor Palace.

”What a pity!”

Seeing the Sixth Elder of the Jade Sword Sect descending, Yun Xiao couldn’t help but show a hint of disappointment on his face, thinking that guy named Zhuo Bufeng really had good luck.

However, Yun Xiao watched coldly without paying too much attention, even if he couldn’t kill these guys with the Nine Revolutions Golden Palace Array. With his strength, none of the Jade Sword Sect’s people present could leave today; after all, these guys wanted to kill him.

Whoosh!

The Sixth Elder of the Jade Sword Sect, who had reached the Floating Life Realm Peak, was quite fast, heading towards the Nine Revolutions Golden Palace Array below. Before seeing the power of this large array, no one would consider that place dangerous.

At that moment, Yun Xiao suddenly noticed a figure flash beside him. It turned out to be the young man who had been fleeing earlier, ascending into the sky and blocking his way.

”Brother, those guys are incredibly vicious. I’ll block them for you, you better escape to save your life!”

It was Xu Qingshan who had ascended. He didn’t want to see this innocent young man die because of him, so he said these words, but with his strength, he could at most block Zhuo Bufeng.

If it were a one-on-one fight, Xu Qingshan believed he wouldn’t lose to Zhuo Qingfeng, but after many days of fleeing, his Meridian Qi was almost drained, and with so many opponents, he could only do what he could and leave the rest to fate.

”No need to rush!”

Seeing this young man’s actions, Yun Xiao couldn’t help but like him more, and at this time, how could he leave? He wanted to watch a thrilling play.

”Sigh, you...”

Seeing the young man being so reckless, Xu Qingshan was a bit frustrated, thinking, could this guy be a fool? Couldn’t he see the disparity in strength between the two sides?

”Look there!”

Yun Xiao stayed calmly because he was highly skilled and brave, and his gaze never left the Sixth Elder of the Jade Sword Sect. Seeing him getting closer to the Nangong Family’s secret place below, Yun Xiao pointed directly at his back.

”Hmm?”

These words left Xu Qingshan puzzled, not knowing what Yun Xiao meant, but he instinctively turned his gaze to the Sixth Elder of the Jade Sword Sect’s location and immediately saw an incredible scene.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

As expected by Yun Xiao, although the Array Heart Strange Spirit of the Nine Revolutions Golden Palace Array had been dealt with by him, its protection over the Nangong Family’s secret place still existed, never disappointing.

Just as the Sixth Elder of the Jade Sword Sect touched one of the corpses and tried to flip it over, a sudden sound of breaking wind erupted, and countless golden lights shot out from the ground.

The most special aspect of the Nine Revolutions Golden Palace Array was that it had no effect on the dead at all, but once a living person entered this area, it would fully explode, as it did now.

Additionally, the Jade Sword Sect’s Sixth Elder was caught off guard, unable to defend or dodge. In just a moment, he was pierced with thousands of holes by the countless golden lights, making it impossible for him to remain alive.

”This...”

Seeing this scene, whether it was the likes of Zhuo Bufeng from the Jade Sword Sect or Xu Qingshan standing in front of Yun Xiao, they all widened their eyes, seemingly unable to believe what had just happened.
