Family Cultivation: My entire family are Villains

A vast sea of blood stretching for miles, driving the unstoppable rainbow light of sword qi like a shooting star racing forward. Almost the instant the sword qi appeared, it had already arrived in front of Shen Gufan, accompanying it were the surging waves of the sea of blood and... Hou Yuxiao himself.

That rainbow light of sword qi, was exactly what he unleashed in mid-air while wielding the Blood Shadow Sword. It was so fast, and with the sea of blood as its backdrop, it created an optical illusion, making people think it was a beam of sword qi. In reality, it was a sword technique, a technique that could manipulate the sea of blood in the void.

The rainbow light pulled along the sea of blood, transforming into countless streams of sword qi that burst forth from the sea. Among the entire crowd, only Wan Renjue's group of four could clearly see that each stream of sword qi was released by Hou Yuxiao, his incredible speed creating the illusion that the sea of blood itself was unleashing the sword qi.

These streams of sword qi danced and galloped through the air, seemingly chaotic but in fact strategically planned. They first sealed all of Shen Gufan's escape paths, then blocked his flanks, and finally converged in mid-air to form a massive blood-colored sword qi that ruthlessly fell upon his head.

The blood-colored sword qi hovered above Shen Gufan's head, charging back for more than five miles, the sea of blood seemingly continuously pouring Divine Origin into the sword qi. The blade's edge tore through the sky, splitting the heavens and earth in two. Wherever it passed, nothing could grow. The bystanders who were close, had they not fled to distant parts early on, would likely have been engulfed by the sword qi and reduced to nothingness.

Hiss...

The onlookers were merely struck with horror, while Shen Gufan, who was directly facing this sword, had his world already turned upside down. He had sensed that something was amiss way before Hou Yuxiao's momentum started to rise.

Hou Yuxiao was definitely not at the Yuan Dan First Realm as rumored outside. Just the power exhibited by this single sword strike, as well as the momentum coming from his body, were undeniably not inferior to his own. Observing the sword drawing strength from Divine Origin and manipulating the sea of blood in the void, extending the sword qi for more than five miles, this surpassed the scale of ordinary martial arts by far, unquestionably a Divine Skill above the Earth Level...

With the sword light bearing down from above, Shen Gufan was shocked to the core, holding nothing back as the Divine Origin from the shadows of the inner core behind him surged into his body at once. The Cold Light Sword stood proudly in his hand, with surging Sword Intent enveloping his entire body as he lifted his head and fixed his gaze upward.

The Cold Light Sword in his hands seemed to come to life as it bravely flew up to meet the blood-colored sword qi from above, without a hint of fear. And along with it soared thousands of sword qi, emanating from within him with a chilling sharpness.

A tidal wave of white light rose behind him, where the immense force of Divine Origin flowed through it. For a moment, it matched Hou Yuxiao's sea of blood, neither yielding to the other. The thousands of chilling sword qi collided with Hou Yuxiao's rainbow sword qi, not showing any sign of weakness.

Hiss...

When the Cold Light Sword clashed with the Blood Shadow Sword in mid-air, the sound produced was not that of normal metal striking metal, but a dense reaction, as if gases were intertwining and fusing. Corresponding to this was the battle of red and white sword qi in the air, each trying to dominate the other.

The dense sword qi dispersed in all directions, with Shengxin Residence as the center, and within a two-mile radius, the air was filled with frighteningly sharp sword qi. Not to mention the people on the Gang Qi Realm, even the Grandmasters were frightened away and had to keep their distance to dare watching the battle unfold.

The only ones who managed to stay within the two-mile range were Hou Clan's group of four, plus the heads of more than thirty second-rate powers, and Wan Renjue's group of four, who had the highest cultivation. However, the closer these people were, the thicker the horror in their eyes became.

"Hou Yuxiao's cultivation is only a step away from Great Perfection, stronger than Shen Gufan. At his age, how is that possible!"

"Not just his cultivation, looking at the momentum of his swordsmanship, it's definitely a Divine Skill of the Earth Level. I've heard rumors of his extraordinary martial arts talent, but to cultivate an Earth Level martial art to the Transformative Realm is just too inconceivable, right?"

"Shen Gufan, is he going to be defeated?"

The first two voices were Ying Ning'er and Duan Hong, while the last question came from Yuan Tiecheng. Hearing their words, Wan Renjue's face showed some displeasure. After a moment of thought, he shook his head, his voice somewhat deep, "Not necessarily. Shen Clan's secret White Mang Sword Technique is also an Earth Level martial art. Shen Gufan has not only cultivated it to the Transformative Realm but has also comprehended the true meaning of the Sword Path. His cultivation is only slightly less than Hou Yuxiao's; his strength might not necessarily be weaker than his..."

In the sky, the two opponents seemed to confirm Wan Renjue's guess. Hou Yuxiao's body suddenly sank downward like a chain reaction, the red and white sword qi, which had been evenly matched, was now overtaken by Shen Gufan's white sword qi.

Hou Yuxiao looked at the sword wound on his shoulder, his face dark and brooding, as if he could not accept defeat. He looked up steadfastly at Shen Gufan standing above him, his eyes sharp, seemingly poised to fight to the death.

Seeing his determination, Shen Gufan immediately felt a drop of cold sweat on his forehead. He first brought back the Cold Light Sword, then bowed to Hou Yuxiao, his tone becoming exceedingly humble, "Master of Hou Family, please hear a word from Mr. Shen."

Shen Gufan's sudden change in attitude made most of the onlookers gape, but a few of the smarter ones seemed to understand the intent behind Shen Gufan's move, showing a knowing expression.

Wan Renjue, however, suddenly became calm, as if he had anticipated Shen Gufan's abrupt change all along. He just watched quietly, without giving anything away, observing the two men in the air.
