Son-in-law Heaven Emperor Xiao Yi

"What the hell is going on?"

Xiao Yi's face darkened as he yanked open the carriage curtain.

A strong stench of blood assailed his nostrils.

Xiao Yi's expression changed drastically at the sight within the carriage, where Xue Bufan and Yan Mingli lay breathing faintly. Both men's right arms were amputated at the shoulder, their clothes soaked red with blood, and their pale faces looked even more horrifying under the sunlight.

Xiao Yi's pupils shrank suddenly, his gaze fixed furiously on Ye Heng, "Weren't you supposed to be discussing a partnership with the Nangong Family? How did you end up like this?"

"This, this..."

Ye Heng's face showed hesitation.

Xiao Yi bellowed, "What exactly happened?"

Ye Heng clenched his fists tightly, his face contorted in ferocity and anger as he gritted his teeth and said, "Master, all of this was done by the Nangong Family. We went to discuss cooperation with them, and they made us wait in the reception hall for three full hours. During the negotiations that followed, they refused to give any ground..."

As Ye Heng continued to recount the events, Xiao Yi came to understand what had transpired.

The Nangong Family had no intention of cooperating with them at all.

They had simply been looking to trouble and target them at every turn.

The arrogance of the Nangong Family completely infuriated Xue Bufan and Yan Mingli, leading them to decide to visit the Treasure Pavilion. Find adventures on My Virtual Library Empire

"Members of the Nangong Family said that unless you, Master, personally go to ask them, our Xiaoshanhe Institute wouldn't even be able to buy a blade of grass... Elder Xue couldn't stand their arrogance and got into a verbal conflict with them, which led us to be besieged by the Nangong Family's experts..."

Ye Heng, pointing at Xue Bufan and Yan Mingli's amputated arms, his eyes bloodshot, said, "Elder Yan's and Elder Xue's arms were chopped off by the third young master of the Nangong Family, Nangong Jian. He, he even said they weren't worthy to die by his hands, so he only took their arms..."

Boom!

The ground beneath Xiao Yi's feet shattered violently, a fierce wind whipping up, causing the two horses drawing the carriage to nearly kneel down.

"Very good, a fine Nangong Family indeed, claiming 'unworthy to die by your hands'..."

Xiao Yi looked at the unconscious Xue Bufan and Yan Mingli, a cold light flashing in his eyes as he said in a deep voice, "Take them back. I'll return shortly!"

Ye Heng hurriedly said, "Master, are you heading to the Nangong Family? Or should we wait until we return to Imperial Dragon Mountain to gather more people and go with you..."

Xiao Yi waved his hand, "No need. The Nangong Family is nothing to worry about, I alone am enough!"@@novelbin@@

Whoosh!

A cold wind rose, shooting directly towards the heavens.

Xiao Yi strode through the air, flying towards the direction of the Nangong Family...

......

The Nangong Family.

As one of the four major aristocratic families of the Great Qian Dynasty, the Nangong Family's influence was indisputably powerful.

The vast Nangong Family estate was the epitome of luxury.

Though it was less than one-fifth the size of the imperial palace, in terms of lavishness, it was certainly far beyond the palace.

The current patriarch of the Nangong Family, Nangong Lie, had three sons and one daughter. The most outstanding eldest son had entered Tianjian Sect under a senior elder, while the second and third sons were disciples of Three Seas Mountain and Wendao Villa respectively.

The third son, Nangong Jian, was flanked by a beautiful maidservant on each side. His face bore a satisfied smile as he watched the graceful dance in front of him, shaking his head and commanding, "You dance well, but you're wearing too many clothes. Strip for your young master and continue dancing..."

Four dancers, with flirtatious expressions, obediently did as they were told.

The gorgeous maidservant in his arms delicately fed Nangong Jian a fruit, her eyes full of seduction as she said, "Third young master, you are truly impressive. Those two old men from Xiaoshanhe Institute were just like ants before you..."

"Hahaha, never mind just two old dogs, even if Xiao Yi from Xiaoshanhe Institute were here, he would be no different from an ant in front of this young master!"

Nangong Jian reveled in the ministrations of a beautiful woman, his face was thick with disdain, "Just a small institute like Xiaoshanhe Institute, do they really think they can stand equal to our Nangong Family by leaning on the royal family? This time, unless Xiao Yi himself kneels before me, his institute won't get a single blade of grass..."

At this moment.

Suddenly, a servant hurriedly ran in from outside, an anxious look on his face, "Thir— Third Young Master, a young man has arrived at the gate, specifically asking for you to come out!"

"What are you good for? Do I have to meet every Tom, Dick, or Harry who comes? Have someone break his arms and legs and throw him into the mass graves to feed the dogs!" Nangong Jian glared hard at the servant, waving his hand impatiently.

The servant's face was the picture of misery, "Third Young Master, you should go yourself... That person is very strong; he has already beaten down dozens of our guards!"

"Hmm?"

Nangong Jian stood up abruptly, a violent rage on his face, "What audacity! I want to see who is so blind as to cause trouble in my Nangong Family's territory?"

Nangong Jian charged out like a raging fire, heading directly to the main gate.

The residence of the Nangong Family was built on the bustling Vermilion Bird Avenue, with people coming and going and the commotion here had already attracted the attention of countless onlookers. In front of that magnificent gate, dozens of the Nangong Family guards were piled haphazardly.

Xiao Yi stood with his hands behind his back, stepping on these dozens of the Nangong Family guards.

In front of him, over a hundred guards at the Nangong Family's gate looked at him warily.

The Nangong Family was replete with strong individuals.

Among these hundred-odd guards, there were fully ten warriors from the Tao Tribulation Realm, including a Fifth Layer master of Tao Tribulation Realm. This person was the Deputy Commander of the Nangong Family guards, Nangong Tu, who was now kneeling before Xiao Yi.

The long knife shattered, lying beside him.

Nangong Tu was drenched in cold sweat, not daring to move in the slightest.

"Who has such guts to cause trouble in my Nangong Family?" Nangong Jian's voice was remarkably loud, his expression fierce as he walked out from inside the Nangong Family compound.

His eyes, sharp as knife blades, fixed onto Xiao Yi.

Xiao Yi glanced at him, "You're Nangong Jian?"

"That's me!"

Nangong Jian looked at Nangong Tu, who knelt before Xiao Yi. Although Nangong Tu was not as strong as he was, he was also a Fifth Layer master of Tao Tribulation Realm who had been defeated by Xiao Yi? Nangong Jian frowned, gazing at Xiao Yi, "Who are you? Daring to make trouble in my Nangong Family, are you not afraid of death?"

Xiao Yi's face was expressionless, he spat indifferently, "Isn't it you who wanted me to come to you personally?"

"Hmm?"

Nangong Jian paused, then realized, "You're Xiao Yi?"

Xiao Yi nodded his head.

Nangong Jian's face immediately turned ashen, he raged, "It seems those two old dogs didn't convey my words to you. I wanted you to come begging on your knees. And now you dare to strike my Nangong Family men, it seems you are tired of living!"

"Which hand did you use?" Xiao Yi asked.

"Hmm?"

Nangong Jian paused.

Xiao Yi stated coolly, "I'm asking, which hand did you use to break Xue Bufan and their arms?"

"..."

Nangong Jian, with a look of disbelief, scoffed, "Do I need to do it myself to break the arms of those two old dogs?"

"Since you won't say..."

Xiao Yi shook his head, casually stepping off the bodies of the several dozen guards, "then just leave both arms behind!"
