Son-in-law Heaven Emperor Xiao Yi

Atop Mount Iron, there was a hush.

Everything happened so suddenly.

Everyone was watching as Xu Tao appeared before Hu Qingbi and the others, arrogantly proclaiming his intent to break Xiao Yi's hands, while everyone waited for Xiao Yi to do the deed himself.

But then...

Xiao Yi actually punched Xu Tao and sent him flying?

Thirty meters away.

Amidst the billowing dust.

Xu Tao finally stopped, with two bloody trails hanging from his nostrils, his nose bridge broken, tears streaming down his face in humiliation.

Panting heavily!

Gasping for air, Xu Tao wiped the blood from beneath his nose, first stunned, then his face twisted ferociously, "Bastard, you dare to ambush me? I'll skin you alive!"

Whoosh!

A vast surge of primal energy burst forth from within him.

As a cultivator at the Tenth Layer of the Divine Power Realm, Xu Tao's energy was increasingly refined, and with a single gesture, a green spear landed in his hand.

Humming!

The spear danced wildly in the air, whistling fiercely, its silvery light flaring like the venomous fangs of a savage snake.

"Xu Tao really broke through to the Divine Power Realm Tenth Layer?"

"What terrifying talent; he's only twenty-six, right? He might have a chance to challenge for the top ten of the Flying Tiger List before he's thirty!"

Those in the top ten of the Flying Tiger List are all in the Golden Core Realm.

Reaching the Golden Core Realm before thirty is indeed a sign of extraordinary talent.

Not far off.

Pride showed on Xu Shiheng's face as he looked toward Jin He, "Jin He, do you think Tao has a chance to enter the Golden Core Realm before thirty?"

"No problem!"

Jin He smiled faintly and said, "Grandfather values Xu Tao highly. As soon as this matter here is settled, I will take him back to our sect. Grandfather mentioned that in two months, there will be a huge opportunity. As long as he seizes this chance, not to mention before thirty... Xu and I might both be able to enter the Golden Core Realm within a year!"

"What opportunity?" Xu Shiheng asked, startled.

"Don't ask what you shouldn't!"

Jin He swept Xu Shiheng with a warning look, then focused on the direction of Xu Tao and Xiao Yi, looking relaxed, "Although Xiao Yi had the advantage of a surprise attack, being able to blow away Xu with the Seventh Layer of the Divine Passage Realm shows he's not weak. Had Xu not made his breakthrough, he might not have been a match for Xiao Yi. But now, his death is certain!"

Xu Shiheng didn't dare to ask further and quickly looked toward the direction of Xu Tao and Xiao Yi.

"Turning Rivers and Seas!"

With a low roar, Xu Tao's spear moved like a dragon turning over the seas, unleashing a fierce surge of force upon Xiao Yi.

Watching the silvery spear glow closing in.

Xiao Yi's eyes narrowed and he put his palms together before his chest, drawing the violently trembling spear glow to land between his hands.

Then with one hand above the other, it was as if the heavens and earth closed in together.

Clang!

During the shrill, hair-raising noise,

The wildly spinning spear glow was actually caught firmly between Xiao Yi's hands!

"Burst for me!"

Xu Tao's eyes were bloodshot as he charged forward, wielding the spear like an arching bridge. Xiao Yi was forced to retreat explosively.

After retreating more than ten meters,

Xiao Yi suddenly slammed his foot on the ground, halting his retreat, then shifted aside, releasing the spear tip from his grasp.

With the obstruction gone, the spear thrust forward, causing Xu Tao to involuntarily lurch a couple of steps.

Suddenly, a palm appeared in front of him, fingers spread wide like a sky-covering hand, and with a thud, it pressed on his face with a terrible force that seemed to root his fingers deeply into his face.

The violent force erupted in an instant from that palm.

Xiao Yi, gripping Xu Tao's face, violently lifted him and slammed him to the ground, with a loud thud as Xu Tao's head smashed into the earth.

With one hand pressing down on Xu Tao's head, Xiao Yi charged forward.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Xu Tao's head plowed through the earth like a bulldozer, stirring up dust and stones, and amidst a cloud of flying dust, trails of fresh blood marked the ground.

Xiao Yi dragged him for over fifty meters before he abruptly released his grip and stood up.

Xu Tao's face was unrecognizable, lying on the ground.

Xiao Yi's right fist shone with golden light, as if a Wrathful Vajra judged the legions of demons. Gales of vital energy wrapped around his entire fist, creating bursts of wind and deafening sonic booms between his knuckles.

This punch was aimed straight for Xu Tao's head and descended with the force of thunderbolts.

If this punch were to connect,

it would surely result in a head exploding upon impact!

"No!"

Xu Shiheng's face drastically changed, and he roared like an arrow released from a bow as he rushed towards Xiao Yi.

Jin He was momentarily stunned, then he turned a shade of iron blue, clapping the armrest as he leaped up, quickly dashing towards Xiao Yi.

Both of these Tenth Layer Divine Power Realm powerhouses took action at the same time.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Indeed it was like Wind Thunder drums booming in battle.

"Fiery Palm!"

Xu Shiheng's hand blazed with roaring flames as his Innate Divine Ability burst forth in an instant, sweeping an intense orange fireball towards Xiao Yi.

Jin He formed a sword with one hand, pointed it at the void, and fired a highly compressed ball of vital energy.

These two attacks were no trifles.

If Xiao Yi were hit, he would undoubtedly be dead.

"Stop!"

"Don't think of harming our benefactor!"

Hu Qingbi and the multitude of strong Hu Family members acted at the same time. Their cultivation might not match those two, but they were numerous. If one couldn't stop them, a whole group would attack together.

"Get out of my way..."

"Move aside..."

Xu Shiheng and Jin He were entangled by the Hu Family members and could not break free for a moment.

They could only watch helplessly as Xiao Yi's punch descended. Jin He roared, "Stop... Xu Tao is a disciple of the Nine Profound Sect, if you dare to kill him, you will face the relentless pursuit of our Nine Profound Sect disciples, you..."

"Nine Profound Sect?"

Xiao Yi's movement slightly hesitated.

Jin He showed an ecstatic look, saying proudly, "That's right, our Nine Profound Sect..."

However...

He didn't finish his sentence.

Xiao Yi just sneered, "Never heard of it!"

Boom!

His punch heavily landed on Xu Tao's head, the vital energy creating a circular tornado, as if thousands of blades were swiftly slicing through, causing an explosive burst.

Only half a body remained of Xu Tao in the pit, lying in a pool of blood.

"No... Tao'er..." Xu Shiheng's eyes were filled with splitting fury.

Jin He was stunned. Who in the vast Tianqing Kingdom dared to disrespect the Nine Profound Sect? Yet Xiao Yi, knowing well that Xu Tao was a disciple of the Nine Profound Sect, still struck the deadly blow, which made Jin He fear him as well.

After dealing with Xu Tao, Xiao Yi saw Xu Shiheng kill two Hu Family warriors.

And even sent Hu Qingbi flying.

A cold light flashed in his eyes as he leaped forward, brandishing a third-grade longsword and slashing it out: "Reclaiming Soul, Seizing Life!"

Pffft!

The sword, swift as a fleeting shadow!

Thump!

The ferocious looking Xu Shiheng was beheaded, collapsing into a pool of blood.

Xiao Yi, standing with his sword, was enveloped by the roaring wind, his robe billowing, his gaze falling on Jin He.

Jin He shuddered, looking at Xiao Yi with a grave face, "Who exactly are you?"

Merely at the Seventh Layer of the Shentong Realm yet possessing such combat prowess, he was surely no ordinary figure!

Xiao Yi looked calmly at Jin He and said indifferently, "Tianqi Martial Arts Academy, Xiao Yi!"
