NOVEL NEXT Chapter 144: Chapter 144
Yun Shan stood indifferently in the sky. The moment he arrived, the momentum belonging to a Dou Ancestor spread in all directions.
Everyone present stopped and looked up at the figure standing in the sky. One by one, they knelt on the ground to pay respect to Yun Shan.
A Dou Ancestor must be respected, was engraved in their minds. Not to mention, the mountain-like momentum pressing on their bodies was no joke; if they delayed any longer, it might crush them.
Still, two people did not follow the crowd. Coincidently, they both were from the Xiao Clan and today's protagonist.
Xiao Yan had Hai Bo Dong, the ice emperor shielding him from Yun Shan's momentum. On the other side, Xiao Ning still sat in his seat like nothing happened. He glanced at everything indifferently.
...
Yun Shan stood with his hands behind his back; he glanced at his disciple and said, "Yun'er, trust teacher, it is in the best interest of the sect to kill them today."
"Why? Do you ask?" Yun Shen pointed at Yun Leng and told her about what had happened in the past. There was another reason, but he hid it.
He had made a secret deal with mysterious people to obtain the resources to break through Dou Venerate in exchange for the lives of the Xiao Clan.
The mysterious people were none other than the Hall of Souls, who were backed by one of the overlords of the Dou Qi continent, the Hun Clan. It was all done to get the Tou Shi ancient jade in the Xiao clan's possession.
The Xiao Clan was no bigger than an ant in front of the Hall of Souls, not to mention the Hun Clan, but because of the presence of the other six ancient clans, they couldn't act openly. Still, it didn't stop them from creating an elaborate plan to accomplish their goal.
How extravagant, the Hall of Souls raised a Dou Ancestor to deal with a small Xiao Clan.
...
Yun Yun and others were startled after they learned about Yun Leng's actions and turned their heads and looked at Xiao Ning's indifferent face wondering how he survived. All sorts of questions popped into their heads.
Being able to cultivate to the peak of Dou Emperor, Yun Yun was not a soft-hearted person, and now was not the time to address right and wrong. Her alluring face turned cold, and she came to her teacher with Nalan Yanran in her arms.
Even though she had a soft corner for Xiao Yan in her heart, Yun Yun knew she had no other choice. Yun Yun took another look at Xiao Yan's face as if she wanted to engrave it in her heart.
"Kill them." Yun Yun's soft voice sounded; within moments, she decided Xiao Yan and Xiao Ning's fate.
...
Xiao Yan was also present when the tragedy happened, and only now does he understand the cause and effect. It was a trap laid out by Misty Cloud Sect for Xiao Ning.
Inside the ring, Yao Chen also sighed. "Boy, hurry up and leave; I have a feeling something terrible is about to happen," Yao Lao's voice rang in Xiao Yan's mind.
"Old Hai, let's run," Xiao Yan said in a low voice, only audible to Hai Bo Dong.
Hai Bo Dong's eyes twitched after hearing what Xiao Yan called him.
The next instant, everyone felt an enormous qi gathering together, and slowly it formed a barrier enclosing the entire sect within it. Hundreds of disciples and many elders sat, converging their dou qi to support this formation.
'Covering Sun Cloud Formation!'
After looking at the formation, Hai Bo Dong's face turned ugly. He had seen the horror of this formation in the past.
...
Yun Yun appeared in front of Hai Bo Dong and Xiao Yan; Yun Leng rushed to finish what he started. Yun Shan stood and watched; he believed the two were enough, and he didn't need to act.
As for Hai Bo Dong? He thought that the latter would make the right choice.
Nalan Jie took his granddaughter and stepped aside. His actions showed his position.
...
"Ridiculous! It's time to end this farce!" Xiao Ning, who had been silent the whole time, spoke coldly.
An endless killing intent erupted from his thin body. At the same time, he inspired his bloodline momentum. A coercion belonging to a dragon and phoenix spread out in all directions.
Xiao Ning's momentum shook everyone's soul it was as if a prehistoric beast was staring at them. Everyone stopped in their tracks, and no one dared to move.
Yun Leng, who was the nearest, was frightened on the spot. He couldn't understand how could Xiao Ning change so drastically in such a short period.
Others also noticed that Xiao Ning's cultivation was the peak of Dou Spirit and not Dou Grandmaster, as he had shown before.
"What's with this coercion?" Yun Shan muttered with a cold face. He was also affected. 'Who is this Xiao Ning? It's impossible! How could a small Xiao Clan have such a character?' He roared in his mind.
Yun Yun also stopped her actions and thoughtfully looked at Xiao Ning.
Only Xiao Yan stared at Xiao Ning with blank eyes, and after feeling the familiar aura, his body shook. It interrupted his healing, and Xiao Yan coughed out blood.
Hai Bo Dong, whose mind was on the formation, couldn't keep up with this rate of change. He looked at Xiao Yan and said, "We might have a chance to escape." He gestured towards Xiao Ning.
Xiao Yan squeezed out an ugly smile and said, "Not necessarily."
Hai Bo Dong gave him a look, which meant, explain what you mean by that.
...
"Yun Leng, you laid a trap for me in the past, and now I have come pay back the favor," Xiao Ning spoke calmly, but the endless killing intent surging from his thin body made him look like a shura sitting on the mountain of corpses.
"You took away what I held dear to my heart."
"Today, I am here to finish what you started. From today onwards, the Misty Cloud Sect will cease to exist." Xiao Ning looked at Yun Shan and spoke coldly. His voice was like an Emperor's decree.
"How dare you? ..." Before Yun Shan could finish his words, five figures covered in black appeared beside Xiao Ning.
'Four Dou Emperors?' Yun Shan was shocked and couldn't speak for a while.
Yun Shan's eyes shrunk, and his mind went blank after seeing the fifth person. He couldn't see through the latter's cultivation.
"Kill everyone! Today, not a single person will leave alive." Xiao Ning's words decided their fate.
