Chapter 70: Your Father Was Killed By You!
“Who dares to injure my son!” Just as Fei Changxiu and the others were feeling bored, a loud shout came.
The City Lord of Qian City was seen leading a group of cultivators by sword control, with white hair and flowing robes, enraged, a golden light struck directly towards Wangyin Inn.
As the smoke and dust dispersed, a large hole was revealed through which Fei Changxiu could be seen standing with his sword.
Fei Changxiu looked up and sneered:
“Old City Lord, why is your hair white before you’re even a hundred years old? You know our Old Xiu is still youthful-looking at one hundred and fifty.”
Hao Yaolian, the City Lord of Qian City, changed his expression upon hearing this. He then observed the spiritual flow around Fei Changxiu, which was not ordinary. The oppressive aura around him instantly diminished significantly.
He asked cautiously, “May I ask who the Old Xiu you speak of is?”
Fei Changxiu smiled and said, “Naturally, it’s that Old Xiu from Xiu Tian Peak. Don’t you know him?”
That Old Xiu from Xiu Tian Peak, one hundred and fifty years old, could it be…
Hao Yaolian’s thoughts focused, and he immediately drew his sword, shouting, “How dare you impersonate Xiu Yan of Ao Tian Sect! Do you think I’m easily fooled!”
Ao Tian Sect is thousands of miles away, and their disciples have no reach here. How could they possibly be here?
Besides, they are under the jurisdiction of Lingxiao Sect. If disciples of Ao Tian Sect came here to cause trouble, wouldn’t that provoke a conflict between the two sects!
These people don’t even draft their lies.
Seeing his swift swordplay, Fei Changxiu couldn’t help but say:
“You, an elder, attacking a junior, is that considered martial ethics!”
Although he said this, Hao Yaolian’s sword Qi didn’t even touch the corner of his clothes.
After all, although Hao Yaolian was at the Golden Core mid-stage, he was only considered self-taught. Against a disciple from a major sect like Fei Changxiu, he was no match.
Not to mention that Fei Changxiu had already reached the late Golden Core stage.
Fei Changxiu turned to his junior disciples and said, “You all saw it. He attacked me first. He attacked the direct disciple of the Peak Master of Xiu Tian Peak first!”
Ming Chenxing: “…”
He Jiusi sighed, “Senior Brother, stop playing around and draw your sword.”
He Qingqing said, “Senior Brother Fei, you shouldn’t tease an old man.”
Ji Qi nodded in strong agreement, “We should respect the old and love the young.”
Seeing that Fei Changxiu had easily dodged his sword moves, Hao Yaolian’s heart somewhat acknowledged Fei Changxiu’s strength. Seeing everyone else watching like it was a show, he couldn’t help but get angry and shout, “What do you mean by this? Do you look down on me!”
Ji Qi said, “Your meaning is that we should all attack together?”
In an instant, Ji Qi and the others’ spiritual light flashed, and three long swords emitting different auras instantly hovered above Hao Yaolian’s head.
Late Golden Core, Golden Core mid-stage, Late Golden Core… And that young woman behind without a sword is also Late Golden Core?
So many young Late Golden Core cultivators!
Hao Yaolian’s killing intent instantly dissipated by more than half. He scanned everyone present, and his gaze finally settled on Fei Changxiu.
To be able to lead a group of Late Golden Core cultivators, his strength must be even more formidable.
Thinking back to what Fei Changxiu had said before—indeed, he seemed to recall that after their Sect Master had gone to Ao Tian Sect to challenge them, the Senior Brother of Xiu Tian Peak of Ao Tian Sect had indeed broken through to the Late Golden Core stage.
Therefore, what Fei Changxiu had said earlier was likely true.
In an instant, numerous thoughts flashed through Hao Yaolian’s mind. Finally, he looked up and gave Fei Changxiu a big smile: “Young friend Ao Tian, what I mean is, you must respect the old and love the young.”
A large part of the reason Hao Yaolian managed to climb to the position of City Lord of Qian City was his utter shamelessness.
Now, don’t talk to him about his son’s castration; he has plenty of sons, so losing one isn’t a big deal.
And don’t tell him about the crowd of cultivators behind him; they all witnessed him smiling so pitifully and fawningly at a child.
He just wanted to save his own life.
Upon hearing this, Fei Changxiu immediately drew his sword, and the wind element spiritual power surged forth.
He smiled and said, “Then I’ll be the one to fight you. How about it?”
Looking at the wind element spiritual flow surging around Fei Changxiu, symbolizing his Late Golden Core strength, the City Lord of Qian City placated with a smile, “We must respect the old and love the young, no fighting.”
Saying this, he turned his back to the cultivators behind him and signaled them to quickly send a message to Lingxiao Sect.
After doing all this, he immediately said to Fei Changxiu, “Young friend Ao Tian, I have no other intentions. I just want to know how my unfilial son offended you young friends. He’s truly worthless!”
“I came here precisely to apologize for that unfilial son!”
As the saying goes, one doesn’t hit a smiling person. Fei Changxiu and the others snorted and said, “You’ll have to ask the innkeeper.”
That innkeeper had long been bound by Fei Changxiu with a spirit-binding rope. He was now kneeling on the ground, his mouth stuffed with a rolled-up ledger.
Upon hearing Fei Changxiu suddenly mention him, he immediately let out a muffled sound.
Hao Yaolian rubbed his fingers together and asked, “Young friends, may I take the ledger out of his mouth? I don’t mean to imply that the young friend stuffed it poorly.”
“This innkeeper, seeing my unfilial son offend you all, didn’t stop him and even fanned the flames. He truly deserves punishment! Deserves punishment! Even if you young friends didn’t act personally, I wouldn’t let the innkeeper off easily! Punishing evil and promoting good is the duty of every cultivator. The fact that you young friends could stuff such a thick and hard ledger into the innkeeper’s mouth just proves your profound attainment…”
This person was truly noisy. Fei Changxiu raised his hand, allowing him to release his mouth.
Just then, Ming Zhaoshuang and Shen Liqian came down with over a dozen young women who had been held captive in Wangyin Inn, as well as Hao Weishuo’s thirty concubines. The entire lobby of Wangyin Inn was suddenly packed with people.
Sunlight streamed down, warm and gentle.
Finally seeing the light of day, many of the young women couldn’t help but shed tears.
Hao Yaolian’s heart skipped a beat when he saw Ming Zhaoshuang bringing so many people down. He wondered if all his transactions with Wangyin Inn had been exposed, and he couldn’t help but glare at the innkeeper.
Without even pausing to ask what his “unfilial son” had done wrong, Hao Yaolian immediately bowed towards Ming Zhaoshuang and Shen Liqian, smiling and asking:
“These two immortal fairies are truly as beautiful as Gu She, resembling the Xiang Fei. At such a young age, they already possess such overwhelming beauty that one’s heart fills with affection at first sight.”
The commotion upstairs a moment ago had been so great that it was impossible to hide from Ming Zhaoshuang and Shen Liqian.
Ming Zhaoshuang recalled Hao Weishuo’s expression and found Hao Yaolian’s smile exceptionally disgusting. She said coldly, “Indeed, your unfilial son fell in love with us the moment he met us.”
“He even said he would reserve a spot for me as his thirty-third concubine.”
Ming Zhaoshuang kicked Hao Yaolian far away, her expression cold, truly possessing the demeanor of an Iceberg Beauty.
Hao Yaolian’s chest ached severely from the kick, but he endured the pain and said, “How is that possible? Are the immortal fairies mistaken? No matter how outrageous my unfilial son is, he has only taken thirty concubines. And they are all among the people the immortal fairies brought down. Are the immortal fairies going to take all those concubines away? That’s no problem, I’ll later…”
Suddenly, he stopped speaking, looked up at Shen Liqian, his eyes trembling…
Shen Liqian had just said casually, “Because he saved the thirty-first spot for me.”
He Qingqing also added at the opportune moment, “Guess who the thirty-second spot was saved for?”
Hao Yaolian’s legs went weak, and he almost knelt before these little ancestors.
Unfilial son! Unfilial son!
You’ve gotten your father killed!
