Chapter 408
byThis move of Xiang Tianxiao had been honed for a long time. He himself comprehended it through the Xiang family’s secret techniques. It incorporated the power of lightning and was invincible, Youdaoplaceholder0 and advocate by many powerful people in the Xiang family.
This was his killing move. He had always only used it when facing the most powerful enemies. Its power was peerless, and often one strike could determine the outcome of the battle.
As soon as they saw him use such a move, the martial artists of the Xiang family knew that the Second Young Master was truly angry. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been so murderous as soon as he made a move.
Let’s see how you block it! Several Divine Movement Realm martial artists of the Xiang family secretly felt pleasure in their hearts and couldn’t stop sneering on their faces. They were thinking that after the Second Young Master defeated Yang Kai, they would immediately leave this place and wouldn’t need to stay and help him participate in the fight for the throne anymore.
It’s better not to get involved in this muddy water.
As for those supplies, they were compensation from the Nan family to Yang Kai. It didn’t matter if they were left behind.
Qiu Yimeng was also secretly shocked and had a worried look on her face. She didn’t expect that the combat power of this Second Young Master Xiang was actually so powerful, and he used a killing move as soon as he came up. Such a move, martial artists below the Divine Movement Realm simply couldn’t resist head-on. Even she, at the first level of the Divine Movement Realm, had to first avoid its sharpness and then look for an opportunity.
She didn’t know if Yang Kai could block it. Although she had witnessed Yang Kai’s strength before, after such a long time without fighting, Qiu Yimeng wasn’t too sure how much Yang Kai had grown.
But when she recalled that day by the Lan River, when Yang Kai alone had killed a powerful cultivator at the Third-Order of Divine Movement Realm, Qiu Yimeng instantly calmed down.
Even if Xiang Tianxiao was powerful, he couldn’t be stronger than that Third-Order Divine Movement Realm cultivator, could he?
With a loud crash, the ball of lightning on the tip of Xiang Tianxiao’s knife suddenly split into pieces and weaved into a tightly-knit lightning net that enveloped the area within a radius of more than ten zhang.
Thousands of electric auras swam about like spiritual snakes. Each electric aura contained Xiang Tianxiao’s saber qi, which was extremely sharp and blocked out the sky and covered the earth, surrounding Yang Kai in all directions.
Huo Xingchen widened his eyes. The unrestrained expression that he had always had finally converged ed somewhat and his face was filled with shock.
Yang Kai still stood in the same place, like an iceberg that would never melt, motionless. His expression was as cold as a knife, indifferently watching the countless electric auras entangle and come.
Xiang Tianxiao’s expression was meticulous, but the corner of his mouth inadvertently revealed a faint smile.
He had won! Once enveloped by this move, no one below the Divine Movement Realm could break free and would only be knocked to the ground by his saber qi and the power of the lightning. He had full confidence in this.
A bright light like day flashed up, dazzling people’s eyes. At this moment, Yang Kai’s figure suddenly blurred and then disappeared without a trace.
The next moment, the vast electric awns shatteredBoom in the stormy True Yuan Qi waves.
A big handprint rapidly enlarged in Xiang Tianxiao’s field of vision, seemingly covering the entire sky, making him have an illusion of being unable to avoid it, and it was imprinted on his chest without the slightest hesitation.
With a muffled grunt, Second Young Master Xiang was like a broken kite, flying far away. In mid-air, his face turned pale and he spat out a mouthful of blood.
Second Young Master!” Those Divine Movement Jing martial artists who were watching the good show suddenly changed their expressions when they saw that the situation was not right, and they all stepped forward and reached out to catch Xiang Tianxiao who fell from mid-air.”
When the dust settled, Yang Kai didn’t seem to have moved at all. He still stood there with a calm expression on his face, looking as indifferent and calm as ever.
Huo Xingchen’s teeth were a little sore. He suddenly discovered that that night when Yang Kai dealt with him, he seemed to have held back.
However, those martial artists of the Xiang family had a look of horror on their faces, and their eyeballs were almost popping out of their sockets, full of disbelief.
Some blood oozed from the corner of Xiang Tianxiao’s mouth, and his figure swayed. He broke free from the support of his own. with a frown brow and a look of unwillingness in his eyes.
Staring blankly at Yang Kai, after a long while, the unwillingness in Xiang Tianxiao’s eyes slowly faded away, and he became a bit dejected and lost.
He simply doesn’t expect that in the True Yuan Realm, someone could defeat him so easily! He is a peerless genius of the Xiang family, with better qualifications than Xiang Chu. The Xiang family also cultivated him vigorously. At a young age, he has a cultivation level close to the Given time, his future is limitless.
It has always been him who wins in battles, but never has he lost as completely as today.
His own move didn’t even stir the hem of the opponent’s clothes. This was a great blow to him.
“Second Young Master…” The strong man of the fourth level of the Divine Travel Realm of the Xiang family was afraid that Xiang Tianxiao couldn’t bear the blow and would become disheartened. He didn’t care about anything else and quickly opened his mouth to comfort: “Victory or defeat is a common thing in war. Don’t take it to heart.”
Xiang Tianxiao nodded slightly, the dejection and loss in his eyes vanished in an instant. When he looked at Yang Kai again, a cavity of fighting spirit blazed, and his eyes burned like fire.
Yang Kai was secretly surprised to see this. This Xiang Tianxiao… had a rather good psychological quality. If given enough time to temper, his future achievements might even be better than some of the young masters of the eight great families.
Qiu Yimeng was giggling beside, looking very happy, while Huo Xingchen was shaking his head and sighing, tutting continuously: “Damn it, so powerful? How did he cultivate?”
“Qiu Yimeng, make arrangements for them. Also, let the people of your Qiuyu Hall carry those four boxes to my room.” Yang Kai indifferently informed, not looking at Xiang Tianxiao anymore and turning to walk towards the mansion.
Before leaving, he seemingly casually glanced in a certain direction.
In that place, the expressions of the two powerhouses with a strength as high as the Eighth Layer of the Divine Wanderer Realm couldn’t help but turn solemn.
One of them was stunned for a moment and said suspiciously, “Did that Young Master Kai discover us?”
The other person was also looking surprised and shook his head. “Impossible. We’re hidden so secretly and haven’t shown any hostility. We’re just observing secretly. How could he have discovered us?”
“Then why did he look in our direction?”
“Strange…” That expert was puzzled. “Let’s not worry about him for now. The Patriarch just told us to see how this Young Master Kai performs tonight. If he loses tonight, then we’ll snatch the Young Master back. Alas, why couldn’t the Young Master choose someone else? Why did did he choose this unpromising Young Master as an ally?
“However, speaking of which, this Young Master Kai’s own combat strength is truly ridiculously powerful. I think that generally, those who have just entered the Divine Wanderer Realm wouldn’t be his opponents.”
Outside the mansion, Qiu Yimeng walked towards the group of people from the Xiang Family with a smile.
That powerhouse of the Fourth Layer of the Divine Wanderer Realm quickly walked over respectfully. “Xiang Fei of the Xiang Family greets Miss Qiu.”
At the same time, a look of suspicion crossed his face. The Qiu family had already formed an alliance with the sixth son of the Yang family, Yang Shen. Naturally, they had heard of this matter. But why was the eldest daughter of the Qiu family at Yang Kai’s residence at this moment? And judging from Yang Kai’s attitude towards her, it was as if he was commanding a servant. On the contrary, this world-renowned eldest daughter of the Qiu family had no complaints at all. She was calm and willing to be driven around.
Unable to figure it out, Xiang Fei was filled withfeel uncertain.
Xiang Tianxiao also slightly clasped his fists as a form of greeting.
Qiu Yimeng smiled lightly and said, “There’s no need to be polite. From now on, we will be working together.”
Xiang Fei nodded: “Since Young Master Kai was able to defeat our second young master, then our Xiang family will also keep our word. As long as Young Master Kai is not defeated in the battle for the succession, we will do our best to assist him.”
Qiu Yimeng nodded in satisfaction.
“But why are you here, Miss Qiu?” Xiang Fei asked thefeel uncertainin his heart.
“I’m his ally, hehe.” Qiu Yimeng smiled sweetly and didn’t explain too much.
Xiang Tianxiao and Xiang Fei were slightly moved. They suddenly discovered that this Young Master Kai, who was not favored by everyone, had actually quietly obtained the support of two young masters and ladies from the eight great families as allies. Among these eight young masters, he was the only one.
“Let’s go in first. I’ll make arrangements for you.” Qiu Yimeng greeted them and shook her head with a bitter smile: “I didn’t expect to come here and end up with the job of a housekeeper.”
Leading a group of people from the Xiang family and walking inside, Huo Xingchen walked up shaking a folding fan and affectionately put his arm around Xiang Tianxiao’s shoulder: “Fellow sufferers! I’ll treat you to a drink!”
Xiang Tianxiao said in a muffled voice: “Okay!”
“After drinking, I’ll take you to the Chunfeng Deyi Building to have some fun!”
“Then there’s no need!”
……
Several soft tapping sounds came, and Yang Kai raised his eyes: “Come in!”
The door was pushed open, and Qiu Yimeng, with a dignified appearance and wrapped in a fragrant breeze, stepped in. Entering the room, she wasn’t polite either. She poured herself a cup of tea to moisten her throat on her own. Behind her followed some people from the Qiuyu Hall, carrying four big boxes. They put the boxes in the room and then bowed and retreated.
Qiu Yimeng didn’t leave but instead sat down and looked at Yang Kai with a smile: “When did you make the Xiang and Nan families suffer such a big loss?”
“About three months after I separated from you and Luo Xiaoman last time.”
“Tell me about it. What happened at that time? I asked that Second Young Master Xiang, and he didn’t know much either. He only knew that his elder brother and cousin both hated and feared you. And it is said that Nan Sheng of the Nan family was also forced by you to cut off two of his fingers. You are really ruthless. That’s a young master of a first-class family and the future heir of the Nan family!”
“They asked for it.” Yang Kai sneered and frowned, briefly told the situation at that time.
Qiu Yimeng listened with shining eyes and felt a mysterious secret pleasure for no reason. Youdaoplaceholder1 when the Xiang and Nan families were humiliated and suffered losses but had no power to resist, her mood was even more pleasant.
“In that case, it’s normal for their two families to admit defeat. Attempting to kill a direct descendant of the Yang family is no small matter. Especially after the death of the fourth son of your Yang family, if someone with a heart links these two things together, then the Xiang and Nan families will be finished.”
“Tell me about the situation of the Xiang family, especially the relationship between Xiang Tianxiao and Xiang Chu.” Yang Kai stood up, walked to the four boxes, and asked casually while checking the supplies inside.
“As cunning as a fox!” Qiu Yimeng pouted.
Yang Kai chuckled lightly: “Xiang Chu obviously didn’t tell his younger brother all the circumstances at that time. Otherwise, Xiang Tianxiao wouldn’t have challenged me rashly today. The relationship between the two brothers is clearly not harmonious if the elder brother hides something from the younger brother. If I couldn’t see this, wouldn’t I be blind?”
