Son-in-law Heaven Emperor Xiao Yi

"The Four Young Masters of Nantian?"

Xiao Yi was taken aback as he looked at the Elixir of Immortality in front of him and spoke indifferently, "Tell them, I'm not free!"

"..."

The Shadow Demon looked helpless and said with a wry smile, "Principal, would you please go out and take a look? Outside, outside..."

He found it difficult to articulate.

Xiao Yi frowned and asked, "What's happening outside?"

The Shadow Demon opened his mouth but didn't know how to break the news; he feared that once he told Xiao Yi what was happening outside, Xiao Yi would be so angry that he might spit blood. He could only muster his courage and say, "You'd better see for yourself! The principal's wife is already out there, but she doesn't know how to handle it either, she asked for you to go over..."

Bang!

Xiao Yi pushed open the door of the secret chamber, his face dark as soot.

The creation of the Spirit of Longevity was crucial, and it was on the verge of success.

He did not wish to leave just like that at this moment.

But...

Since the Shadow Demon had said that it was Fang Qingzhu who had sent for him, and even she couldn't resolve the situation, he had no choice but to step in. Looking at the Shadow Demon, he instructed, "Guard the door well, don't allow anyone to enter!"

"Yes!"

The Shadow Demon patted his chest and nodded confidently. He had reached the First Nirvana Realm and proclaimed, "I'll guard it with my life; I'll absolutely not let anyone near the secret chamber!"

"..."

Xiao Yi waved his hand and headed toward the gate.

Still some distance from the gate, Xiao Yi heard a series of ear-piercing curses, "Xiao Yi, you ungrateful rebel, what sins did I, Xiao Zhengde, commit in my last life to have sired such a disgraceful offspring?"

"The Nantian Dynasty has been good to the Xiao Family, even serving as our clothing and food; how dare you lead a rebellion? You, who should have been a wasted seed on the wall, my biggest regret in life is that I didn't do just that... And I regret even more that I didn't listen to that cheap woman's words and kill you right away..."

"Hey, you little bastard, you even killed your brother, your own brother! How could you bear to lay your hands on him?"

"A tiger does not eat its cubs, and brothers do not fight each other. Tian'er was generous and pure-hearted, doing good deeds daily, and everyone who knew him had only praise for him. But as his brother, you were jealous of your brother's achievements and reputation, continuously fabricated lies to slander and tarnish him, and even brutally murdered him... I wish I could eat your flesh and drink your blood, you unfilial son..."

The cursing was unbearable to the ear.

Xiao Yi finally understood why the Shadow Demon had behaved that way; Xiao Zhengde's cursing was indeed too unpleasant!

Xiao Yi's face was black as coal.

He had never expected Xiao Zhengde to show up here.

Let alone...

That he could do something so shameless?

Whoosh!

Xiao Yi exhaled a heavy breath of foul air and leapt out, arriving in front of the gate.

At this moment...

People had already crowded around the gate, and they all watched Xiao Zhengde lying on the ground wailing and cursing, pounding the earth with his fists, each wearing an expression of speechlessness.

Fang Qingzhu's face was the color of iron.

Yet she was unable to do anything.

Regardless of what Xiao Zhengde was like, he was her father-in-law in name, Xiao Yi's father.

She didn't know how Xiao Yi would deal with Xiao Zhengde, but after all, it was not appropriate for her to intervene; she could only listen to Xiao Zhengde's despicable cursing as she involuntarily clenched her slender hands, "Brother Xiao Yi is definitely not like that..."

Xiao Xue looked at Fang Qingzhu, grinned to reveal two small tiger teeth, and asked, "Miss, shall I eat him up?"

"Don't be impulsive!"

Fang Qingzhu hurriedly stopped her, "After all, he is Brother Xiao Yi's father; let's wait for Brother Xiao Yi to come back and decide!"

At that moment...

Xiao Zhengde also noticed Fang Qingzhu and, with a turn of his eyes, suddenly pounced toward her, bellowing, "You must have bewitched that rebellious son. He never had any issues in the Xiao Family for over a decade. But ever since he went to Nanhuang and married you, he's changed completely. It must be your witchcraft at work. Let me tear off the mask of your deception and see what kind of demon you truly are..."

Fang Qingzhu's expression changed slightly.

She quickly grabbed hold of Xiao Xue beside her, fearing that in her anger, Xiao Xue would obliterate Xiao Zhengde.

But at that moment,

A warm hand grasped her delicate wrist, and a gentle voice sounded beside her ear, "Don't worry, leave it to me to handle!"

Bang!

A dark shadow flashed by.

Xiao Yi kicked Xiao Zhengde without any courtesy, landing a powerful blow to his chest. Xiao Zhengde's forward charge abruptly halted. His face contorted in agony, he let out a wail, and like an arrow released from its bow, his body whistled through the air, flying backward a full hundred meters before crashing to the ground with a thud.

Hiss!

A collective gasp of shock rose from the crowd.

Everyone's eyes turned to Xiao Yi.

Xiao Yi's face was dark as coal, his eyes like lightning, staring coldly at Xiao Zhengde, who was staggering to his feet from the ground, "Let me hear one more insult toward Qingzhu coming from your mouth, and your fate will be like this stone!"

Swoosh!

He pointed a finger.

The stone the size of a human head at Xiao Zhengde's feet exploded with a bang, turning into a shower of dust.

Xiao Zhengde trembled all over, collapsing to the ground in fright.

His bowels and bladder emptied simultaneously.

In his terror, Xiao Zhengde quickly looked towards Zhao Xing and the others, shouting, "Young Master Zhao, this, this, this is Xiao Yi, that little beast. Please, take him down and avenge my Tian'er..."

After learning of Xiao Tianjiao's death,

Xiao Zhengde hadn't dared to set foot outside until Zhao Xing found him, telling him to accompany him to the Daqian Dynasty to seek revenge against Xiao Yi.

In his eyes...

Zhao Xing and the others were top fighters from the Heavenly Dragon Ranking, willing to avenge Xiao Tianjiao; they surely wouldn't harm him. Immediately hitting it off with them, he followed them to the Daqian Dynasty, even taking the initiative to curse Xiao Yi angrily. Now that Xiao Yi had appeared, he naturally hoped that Zhao Xing and the others would take action to kill him.

Then take him back to the Nantian Dynasty to continue enjoying his life of wealth and honor.

However...

The corners of Zhao Xing's mouth curved up slightly, but he merely looked on with a mocking expression, unmoved.

They hadn't brought Xiao Zhengde along solely to provoke Xiao Yi.

More importantly, Xiao Tianjiao had possessed quite a few treasures. Now that Xiao Tianjiao was dead, many of those treasures were in Xiao Zhengde's hands.

Their goal was to eliminate Xiao Yi.

And, by the way, extort those treasures from Xiao Zhengde.

Now that Xiao Zhengde hadn't coughed up those treasures, how could Zhao Xing possibly make a move?

Zhao Xing feigned regret with a sigh, speaking solemnly, "Family Head Xiao, after all, this is a family matter between you and Xiao Yi, and it's inappropriate for us to interfere!"

Xiao Zhengde froze for a moment, then immediately understood Zhao Xing's implication.

Hesitating for a moment,

Xiao Zhengde took a deep breath and said firmly, "I beg you four to take action, help me kill this unfilial son, and avenge my Tian'er! As thanks, I am willing to offer four seventh-grade peak beast cores and four pieces of seventh-grade prime weaponry..."

Buzz!

These words instantly lit up the eyes of Zhao Xing and his companions.

Xiao Tianjiao was indeed wealthy!

The treasures he left for Xiao Zhengde were substantial.

These treasures held an enormous temptation for the four men born in humble circumstances.

Zhao Xing laughed heartily and nodded, "Family Head Xiao is too courteous. Xiao Tianjiao was a good friend of ours; avenging him is both an honor and a duty." As his voice dropped, Zhao Xing and his men turned to look at Xiao Yi and coldly said, "Xiao Yi, we're just taking the money to solve problems for others. When you meet King Yama, don't blame us!"
