Family Cultivation: My entire family are Villains

A figure looking to be about seventy years of age, with a somewhat aged silhouette, was sitting cross-legged on a soft couch at the front of the great hall. It was the Tiger List master, Jinyu Hou Helian Wuji, with whom Zhaoyang had had a chance encounter.

There wasn't much of an aura emanating from Helian Wuji's body. Embracing Elixir is the third realm for a gang qi warrior, having already cultivated the Core Essence Qi. The so-called "Core Essence" refers to a martial artist "Embracing the Origin and Preserving the Unity," able to gather all the Qi Force within the body, forming a unique Core Essence Qi.

Martial artists' use of force stresses control and release. If the first two realms of gang qi are about release, then an Embracing Elixir martial artist has reached the level of gathering.

Of course, gathering is also for the sake of a better release. Understanding "Embrace the Origin and Preserve the Unity" to form Core Essence Vigor can fully release out of the body and initially take shape.

Just as Hou Yuxiao had personally witnessed, Tian Linong's sword emitted Sword Qi for more than ten meters. A warrior of this level, with every move, was already approaching the transformative prowess of a grandmaster in the Manifesting Law realm, whether it was gang qi or Gangsha, none were comparable.

From his vantage point above, Hou Yuxiao gazed down upon Helian Wuji, gently taking down his own Ape Demon Staff from his back and clutching the Green Frost Sword at his waist with his left hand, his Core Essence Qi ready to be unleashed.

Although Helian Wuji's breath seemed exceedingly tranquil, a sudden whiff of floating strangeness still alerted Hou Yuxiao.

In the moment when the breath's floating anomaly occurred, Hou Yuxiao acted...

His Core Essence Vigor flowed out from his body, his pupils suddenly focused, and the Ape Demon Staff he was clutching in his right hand was thrust forward like a spear, hurled directly at Helian Wuji in the great hall with a whistling sound, piercing through the walls of the great hall and plunging downward.

Simultaneously, Hou Yuxiao leaped up, transferring the Green Frost Sword from his left to his right hand, and the Vigorous Qi wrapping around his body forcefully broke through the walls in front of the great hall. Dozens of blood-colored Sword Qi, like the wings of a majestic eagle, swooped down on Helian Wuji's head from above.

The stealth attack of the Ape Demon Staff followed by the ensuing Blood Shadow Sword Technique.

Helian Wuji's fate seemed already sealed...

Even though he saw Helian Wuji rise to defend himself, a hint of joy appeared on Hou Yuxiao's face, a flicker of certainty crossing his mind.

The stealth attack with the Ape Demon Staff was just an appetizer; after all, it was just an exquisite weapon, and to think of assassinating Helian Wuji with a stealth attack was somewhat unrealistic.

The key was the Transformative Realm Blood Shadow Sword Technique, which was his true killing move...

More than ten meters of blood-colored Sword Qi tore through the sky towards Helian Wuji's neck. Hou Yuxiao, following closely behind and less than ten meters away from Helian Wuji, could clearly see each other's faces.

What Helian Wuji saw was the familiar Third Dragon Head Azurite Demon mask, his eyes reflecting immense fury, and his face quickly filled with murderous intent.

And at this moment, Hou Yuxiao's heart had completely settled down.

To be precise, when he couldn't see a trace of panic or confusion on Helian Wuji's face from the sneak attack, he knew that he had still underestimated his opponent.

"Bastard, such a clumsy trick of luring the tiger away from the mountain. You think you can fool me!"

Helian Wuji leaped to one side, deftly dodging the Ape Demon Staff and then let out a thunderous roar to the skies. As he spoke, an invisible shockwave spread out instantly, negating most of the Blood Shadow Sword Technique, and only managed to tear the front of his robe, revealing a layer of golden chainmail underneath.

"To draw you here, I deliberately sent Elder Fu away. I would never have thought you, this vile rat, would truly dare to come.

Just you alone trying to assassinate me, courting death!"

Hearing that second sentence lightened Hou Yuxiao's heart, which had just settled. Sensing that there were not many people approaching from outside, he looked up at Helian Wuji with an expressionless face, yet a trace of joy rose in his heart.

This old man is quite confident!

And the moment Helian Wuji uttered the words "courting death," he had already moved.

A blast of Core Essence gathered at his throat and roared out towards Hou Yuxiao, instantly knocking him back more than ten meters with its overwhelming force.

At the same time, his voice instantaneously reached the ears of everyone in Yunye county.

"The Qinglong Association is brutal and merciless. The Third Dragon Head, Fang Jinghong, has committed repeated acts of crime, and today, I, as the Sect Leader, shall rid the martial world of this scourge!"

Fang Jinghong, seen again at the Divine Sound Sect...

What does he intend to do this time?

To kill Helian Wuji; has he gone mad?

Various thoughts flashed through the minds of everyone in Yunye county, their faces displaying shock, and many martial artists, keen on witnessing the excitement, hurriedly rushed towards the Divine Sound Sect...
