Chapter 1121

The strength of the Heike family and the Xu family has always been comparable. However, Xu Zhishen is dead, and the Hundred Peaks Map that they feared the most has also been lost. Now, in terms of the comparison of strength, the Xu family should be slightly weaker than the Heike family.

If that Yang Kai could kill a few more Saint King Realms of the Xu family, perhaps the Hake family could wipe them out in one fell swoop and completely annex the Xu family’s power！

Thinking of this, many people’s hearts burned with excitement. They secretly felt that the Patriarch was really the Patriarch. His vision was indeed a little farther-reaching. They only thought of using the Hundred Peaks Diagram to exchange benefits with the Xu family. How could they see this great opportunity to take away the firewood from under the cauldron？

Ian didn’t care what they thought and said lightly, “Do you only see the immediate benefits？”

“The Patriarch means…” Everyone looked at Ian suspiciously.

Ian sighed： “Why is our Hake family only a peripheral force of the Shadow Moon Palace？ Because we are not strong enough, because we don’t have powerful experts. If we had a Void Return Realm, I believe the Shadow Moon Palace would also reconsider the status of our family！”

Many of the elders and worshippers frowned, not knowing what Ian was up to. Only Chang Qi’s expression changed, and he thoughtfully considered.

“Do you think that if we recruit this Yang Kai into the family, with his qualifications, would he be able to promote to the Void Return Realm?”

“Ah？ The Patriarch still wants to recruit him？ But that kid is too arrogant！” Warren exclaimed and shook his head. “For such a troublemaker, I don’t think it’s easy to recruit.”

“Yeah, Patriarch. Besides, he is only at the First-Order Saint King Realm now. It will probably take decades for him to advance to the Void Returning Realm. Who knows what the situation will be like decades later？” Ba Qingyan also spoke up. He had lost face to Yang Kai several times. Although he knew he was no match for Yang Kai, he couldn’t swallow that bad breath. How could he still think about recruiting him？

Ian shook his head and said in a deep voice, “According to Qingyan’s statement, this Yang Kai will surely die this time. But he will definitely take a few people from the Xu Family down with him. We just need to make a move at a critical moment and save that Yang Kai. If that kid is sensible, he will surely work for me and submit to our family. If he submits, won’t the Hundred Mountains Map belong to our Heike Family？”

Everyone’s eyes lit up in unison.

Chang Qi, who had never spoken before, thought for a while and said, “Patriarch, what if he doesn’t submit？”

Ian sneered and said, “He will. Between life and death, I think he will make a wise choice.”

“But Patriarch, if we do this, won’t we offend the Xu Family？” Ba Qingyan asked worriedly.

“The Xu Family？” A hint of disdain flashed in Ian’s eyes. “So what if we offend the Xu Family？ After today, there will be no more Xu Family.”

Upon hearing this, the elders and worshippers instantly understood what Ian was thinking and couldn’t help but take a deep breath.

The clan leader does not only want to offer kindness and recruit him when Yang Kai is in crisis but also wants to take this opportunity to wipe out the elites of the Xu family! The clan leader not only takes a fancy to Yang Kai, but also to the Hundred Peaks Diagram, and even more to those people of the Xu family.

For a while, many people were sweating profusely, but also extremely excited.

“As long as that kid is willing to submit, I can exhaust the family’s wealth to buy pills for him. With his talent, as long as there are enough pills, I think it won’t take ten years for him to be promoted to the Void Returning Realm! Ian said like this. In the front of him, a beautiful picture seemed to unfold, and he was high-spirited as if he had become dozens of years younger all of a sudden. “Once he reaches the Void Returning Realm, the status of our Hacker family will rise, and we can enter the inner layer of the Shadow Moon palate. Will we still be afraid of no then?

Everyone was dumbfounded.

They naturally knew that if they used pills to pile up cultivation without regard for the consequences, it was indeed possible to let a Saint King Realm cultivator be promoted to the Void Returning Realm within ten years. But again, this person would also be ruined. The cultivation level improved by pills was miscellaneous and impure, and a genius would become a mediocre.

But what did this have to do with them? Yang Kai was just an outsider, picked up by Wu Yi from the starry sky. Even if he was a genius, he was not a member of the Hacker family. If he was ruined, it would be ruined. As long as he could bring benefits to the family, those were all worth it.

“The Clan Chief has a far-reaching plan, and we admire it！” Ba Qingyan bowed and saluted. He truly admired the plan of his own Clan Chief. This was simply killing three birds with one stone. If it succeeded, not only would the family’s reputation be preserved, but the Xu family could also be annexed, and that Yang Kai could be recruited. Ten years later, the family’s future would be smooth sailing, and there would be no need to struggle at the bottom anymore.”

The various elders and worshippers also quickly expressed that the Clan Chief was brilliant. Only Chang Qi and Hao An, whom Yang Kai had met, looked at each other and sighed softly.

On the other side, under the leadership of Xu Zhikun, the powerful members of the Xu family had already arrived dozens of zhang outside the cave. As soon as they stepped into the area covered by Yang Yan’s formation, those people frowned.

For no reason, they had a sense of unease rising in their hearts. They turned their heads to look around, but there was nothing inappropriate.

“Clan Chief, that’s the person who killed the Third Elder！” A Saint King Realm expert came to Xu Zhikun’s side and pointed at Yang Kai from a distance.

Xu Zhikun’s eyes narrowed, and a clearly distinguishable killing intent spilled out. His spiritual thoughts swept over there, and he frowned and said, Didn’t you say he was only at the Third Layer of the Saint Realm? Why is he a Saint King Layer 1?

“Ah？” The person who had just spoken exclaimed, “But that day…”

“Trash!” You can’t even tell what cultivation level others are. What use are you? Although Xu Zhikun scolded like this, he felt a lot more at ease in his heart.

He received a report from the strong in the clan that a young man with the Third-Order Saint Realm killed Xu Zhishen and robbed the Hundred Mountains Map. He couldn’t believe it anyway. But now he found that this kid was clearly a First-Order Saint Realm, and his heart was greatly settled.

Because they wanted to take advantage of the conflict between Yang Kai and the Xu family to act, so the fact that Yang Kai’s promotion and breakthrough, and even the matter of injuring Ba Qingyan with one blow, the Heike family didn’t say anything, just wanted the people of the Xu family to suffer more losses. Naturally, Xu Zhikun thought that the information he got was wrong.

Although there is a possibility that the young man has been promoted in these few days, this possibility is too low.

A Third-Order Saint Realm killing a Third-Order Saint Realm, Xu Zhikun couldn’t accept it, but if Yang Kai was a First-Order Saint Realm, it would make sense. After all, there must be a bottom line for leapfrogging battles.

He instinctively felt that those warriors who escaped back to his family must have been frightened and didn’t notice the matter of Yang Kai hiding his cultivation level.

“You are the bastard Yang Kai who injured my nephew Tianze and killed my third brother Zhishen？” Xu Zhikun shouted sternly. “Who gave you the courage to kill the elder of my Xu family？”

With a furious roar from Xu Zhikun, the dozens of martial artists behind Wu Yi all changed their complexions. They took out their secret treasures and looked vigilant as if facing a great enemy. Even Wu Yi and Yu Feng had their Saint Yuan surging, ready to make a move at any time.

Yang Kai took a step forward and sneered, “So you’re the head of the Xu Family？”

“That’s right, it’s this old man！”

“I didn’t go looking for you, but you actually came here on your own. Well, since you’re here, then don’t leave.”

The martial artist who had just spoken to Xu Zhikun trembled when he heard this and immediately took a few steps back.

He still clearly remembered that when Xu Zhishen came here last time, this youth had also said the same thing. As a result, Xu Zhishen died. This sentence was like a life-threatening talisman, making him have an instinctive fear. If it weren’t for the fact that the head of the family and the elders and offerings were all here, he would probably have run away immediately.

Sensing his abnormality, Xu Zhikun gave him a cold look and gritted his teeth and shouted, “Little brat, don’t be so arrogant. Hand over my Xu Family’s Hundred Peaks Diagram and cripple your own dantian. This old man can spare your life. Otherwise, don’t blame this old man for bullying the weak!

Xu Zhikun wished he could tear Yang Kai into pieces. How could he let Yang Kai die so easily? He was also preparing to torture this youth well to comfort the spirit of his useless son in heaven.

“Cut the crap. If you want to fight, then fight. I don’t have that much time to entangle with you！” Yang Kai snorted coldly.

“Good good good！” Seeing Yang Kai’s such strength, Xu Zhikun laughed out of extreme anger and shouted sharply, “Then as you wish！”

As soon as the voice fell, he was like a roc spreading its wings and pounced towards Yang Kai with an astonishing momentum. More than a dozen Xu family elders and enshrined experts at the Third-Order Saint King Realm closely followed behind Xu Zhikun. Obviously, they were ready to kill Yang Kai with a thunderbolt.

No matter what cultivation level Yang Kai was, since he could kill Xu Zhishen, it showed that his combat power was not ordinary. How could Xu Zhikun look down on him? He had long made up his mind to swarm up and not give Yang any chance to resist.

The people of the Hacker family who were watching from a distance were almost scared out of their wits when they saw the Xu family swarm up.

“So shameless？” Warren shouted. Just now Xu Zhikun said he didn’t want to bully the weak with the strong. In the blink of an eye, not only did he bully the weak with the strong, but also bullied the few with the many. The face of the Xu family is really thick.

“In this way, how could that kid still be alive? Patriarch, what should we do?” Huang Juan’s beautiful eyebrows were tightly furrowed, and she obviously didn’t look good on Yang Kai.

Ian’s expression changed. To be honest, he never expected the Xu family’s anger to be so intense. They all rushed over at once. Now, even if he leads people over, it might be too late. With a soft sigh, as if comforting himself, he said, “If that Yang Kai really can’t escape, then he’s not worth recruiting. However… let’s go and take a look. Maybe he won’t die for a while.”

As soon as these words were spoken, the people of the Hecker family were all stunned and showed expressions of disbelief.

Because they found that when the dozen or so Saint King Third Layer cultivators of the Xu family rushed over, Yang Kai actually didn’t move at all and even had a cold smile on his face.

The next moment, in front of that cave, a radius of a thousand zhang was suddenly filled with fog, and nothing could be seen anymore. The figures of the dozen or so people from the Xu family and Yang Kai disappeared at the same time.

A dozen or so spiritual senses of the Hecker family almost probed over there at the same time, but they simply couldn’t penetrate those fogs and couldn’t detect any situation inside！

“Formation？” Ian exclaimed in horror, his body trembling. The other elders and offerings also felt a bit of scalp-numbing and their eyes lost their focus.

The formation is not terrifying. What’s terrifying is a formation that even the spiritual sense can’t see through. The person who assigns this formation must be extremely wise in the attainment of formations.

There is actually a formation master here？
