Family Cultivation: My entire family are Villains

The sword light carried layers upon layers of blood shadows, severed the eaves of the grand hall, and cut straight towards the top of the Golden Bell. As it punched four holes in the surface, it also emitted four resounding booms.

Boom... Boom... Boom... Boom

Helian Wuji glanced back at the relentlessly pursuing Hou Yuxiao, a fierce light flashing in his pupils and a face full of killing intent, nowhere resembling the previous appearance of discussing a deal with him.

He stood up, Core Essence Qi gathered in his palm, suddenly flinging the top cover of the Golden Bell away, then with a kick turned the Golden Bell on its side, hands cradling it and aiming the larger end directly at the oncoming Hou Yuxiao, while his mouth was positioned at the smaller end that he had just sent flying.

"Bastard, die!"

Hum...

The Golden Bell, which Divine Sound Sect spent millions of taels of silver to forge, wasn't just for decoration and aesthetic, but together with Jinyu Hou Helian Wuji and this large Golden Bell, was the Sect's greatest reliance.

"Even a Half-Step Master wouldn't dare to forcefully invade my Divine Sound Sect; you who skulk in the shadows think to show violence here, wait for your next life!"

"Fool, the moment I saw this Golden Bell, I already guessed it, and it turns out it's really, really... nothing new at all."

The smug expression that had just appeared on Helian Wuji's face was instantly pushed back by Hou Yuxiao's words. His face went stiff for a moment, and at this time, in his line of sight, Hou Yuxiao drew a black iron staff from behind him.

That black staff was the same one Hou Yuxiao had used to ambush him earlier; he saw at a glance that it was pulled up from the ground and placed behind his back while chasing after him.

What is Fang Jinghong doing with a black staff? Isn't he known for his swordsmanship?

As this question flashed through Helian Wuji's mind, an overwhelming momentum rose up in front of him, causing his heart to tighten.

Hou Yuxiao sheathed his longsword back into its scabbard at his waist, raised the long staff with both hands, and an immense stick force surged from within him, his body seemingly expanding in size instantly, turning him into a towering mountain peak, and together with the Ape Demon Staff, they came crashing down like an avalanche.

In Youzhou, there are mountains by the name of Cangling, the heights of which are unknown, stretching for hundreds of miles...

Although Hou Yuxiao had not laid eyes on the hundreds of miles high Cangling in either of his lifetimes, that didn't prevent him from cultivating the Cangling Stick Technique using Minor Rejuvenation Pills. If the Blood Shadow Sword Technique was cultivated entirely by borrowing external forces to reach the Transformative Realm, then the Cangling Stick Technique was different.

Hou Yuxiao's pupils constricted slightly as a mysterious essence of stick technique burst forth from within him, the stick force that had transformed into towering mountains became dozens, even hundreds of times more powerful.

As Helian Wuji looked up slightly, what he saw was a rising mountain of greenwood hundreds of meters tall, and the shadow of a high mountain covered all that he relied upon, the staff that Hou Yuxiao smashed towards him was not just some meter-long black staff, but a colossal mountain range.

His eyes filled with shock, Dan Gang Vigor in his throat desperately vibrated through the Golden Bell to drive Hou Yuxiao back, but... it was still just wishful thinking!

The long staff smashed down, and the Golden Bell let out a thunderous roar.

The powerful force carried by the staff's momentum split the ground, creating a colossal ravine a hundred meters long and five to six meters deep.

The strong winds carried by the staff's force utterly destroyed the already half-collapsed grand hall, leaving behind nothing but a bare foundation.

As the staff's force surged like tidal waves, the moment the Golden Bell shattered, Helian Wuji's eyes were already filled with horror. He gave up on resistance and retreated furiously to the rear, but it was too late; he could not escape.

The Core Essence Qi wrapped around the long staff, striking him squarely in the back as if a mountain had toppled onto him. His body plummeted to the ground like a cannonball, his internal organs instantly shattered, and the powerful Qi forced blood to seep from all his orifices.

If it weren't for his peak Dan Embracing Phase cultivation protecting him, that single blow would have turned him to dust, leaving nothing behind.

Ugh...

A spurt of vile blood ejected, and the dying Helian Wuji, his white beard now stained red, lifted his head to look at the approaching Hou Yuxiao. The horror in his pupils had not dissipated when it was joined by a thick layer of dread.

"True Meaning of Martial Technique... True Meaning of Martial Technique... How is it possible, not having become a Grandmaster, how could you comprehend the True Meaning of Martial Technique..."

The once leader of Divine Sound Sect, ranked 485th on the Tiger List, Jinyu Hou Helian Wuji, was now in a miserable state, his seven orifices bleeding as he watched Hou Yuxiao close in, screaming in disbelief.

In the martial world, it's almost universally acknowledged that only by breaking through the divine barrier in the upper abdomen to reach the Great Grandmaster realm can one comprehend the True Meaning of Martial Technique. Both he and Hou Yuxiao had only Dan Embracing Phase cultivation, yet Hou understood the True Meaning of the stick technique...

Helian Wuji's screams did not surprise Hou Yuxiao at all. The face hidden behind the mask curved into a slight smile as he reached Helian Wuji, facing that expression still full of disbelief. Hou Yuxiao drew out the Green Frost Sword from his waist, slowly leaning forward.

"There are many things you wouldn't believe!"

As he spoke, Hou Yuxiao leaned forward slightly and gently removed the mask from his face, revealing his true features that he had just changed.

A young and handsome face appeared before Helian Wuji, who was initially startled and then seemed to realize something. Ignoring his severe injuries, he abruptly looked up at Hou Yuxiao with horror and shock filling his pupils.

"How can it be, you are the one from six months ago, in Zhaoyang, that Hou..."

Hiss

Before he could finish speaking, a sword light directly swept across his neck.

The Sect Leader of Divine Sound Sect, a master of the Tiger List, Helian Wuji, was beheaded.
