Son-in-law Heaven Emperor Xiao Yi

Chapter 421: Strong Counterattack



Ten Thousand Beasts Sect.

Located within the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range.

The entire mountain range was demarcated as the territory of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect, raising millions of beasts.

Apart from cultivating powerful beasts, the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect also bred creatures like the Python Blood Horse, the Flying Sky Jackal Wolf, the Dual-winged Demon Tiger, etc., for military use, as well as various birds and beasts suitable for riding. These beasts were then sold to the military of the Great Qian Dynasty, or to private commerce and so on.

Of course.

Beyond these, the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect also possessed many powerful guardian beasts.

Just like the Ink Jiao that Yang Ling mentioned.

Ten years to become a snake, a hundred years a python, a thousand years a jiao, ten thousand years to transform into a dragon.

The Ink Jiao of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect had existed for over five thousand years and its cultivation had reached the sixth-order peak, possessing combat strength comparable to a human at the peak of the Dharma Manifestation Realm.

However...

Lately, this Ink Jiao of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect had been hanging by a thread.

Even the beast cultivation experts of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect were at a loss.

This provided Yang Ling with an opportunity.

Xiao Yi accompanied Yang Ling to the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect, where two sixth-order low-level beasts were stationed at the gate.

Yang Ling had already made contact with the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect, and he entered the Ten Thousand Life Mountain Range without any obstacles.

"Yang Ling, your Highness, my apologies for not meeting you from afar. Please forgive me!"

The one approaching was Shen Yan, the Vice Sect Leader of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect, with a mild smile on his face. He glanced at Xiao Yi with a hint of confusion, "And this is?"

"Vice Sect Leader Shen!"

Yang Ling saluted Shen Yan and then introduced, "This is Xiao, the head of the Xiaoshanhe Institute!"

"Oh! So it is Head Xiao, I have long admired your reputation!"

Shen Yan promptly looked towards Xiao Yi, sizing him up from head to toe. Although at this moment Xiao Yi was merely at the Tao Tribulation Realm and he was a true Dharma Manifestation Realm Peak, Shen Yan did not show the slightest hint of contempt, saying with a gentle smile, "With Head Xiao's esteemed presence, our Ten Thousand Beasts Sect is honored!"

"Vice Sect Leader Shen is too kind. Let's go see the Ink Jiao," said Xiao Yi with a wave of his hand.

Shen Yan's face showed a trace of difficulty.

Yang Ling frowned and asked, "Vice Sect Leader Shen, is there something troubling you?"

Shen Yan hesitated, about to speak, when a cold voice came from behind them: "There's nothing troubling. It's just that we no longer need your services here. Vice Sect Leader Shen is probably struggling with how to send you back!"

"Hmm?"

Hearing that voice, Yang Ling's expression abruptly changed.

He turned his head with difficulty.

He saw a figure striding towards them, someone who bore a slight resemblance to him but appeared much more mature and domineering in both words and demeanor.

This person was the Crown Prince of the Great Qian Dynasty, Yang Kun.

He had trained in the Tianjian Sect since he was young and was even a direct disciple of the Sect Leader of Tianjian Sect.

At the same time...

He was also the formidable rival competing with Yang Ling for the position of Crown Prince.

Standing before Yang Ling, Yang Kun sneered coldly, his eyes narrowed, "What's the matter? Have you forgotten how to greet your royal brother before you even became the Crown Prince?"

"Your servant pays respects to the Great Crown Prince!"

Yang Ling took a deep breath and responded to Yang Kun, turning his attention to Xiao Yi, "This is..."

"Did I allow you to introduce him?"

Yang Kun scoffed, cutting off Yang Ling's words. He looked over at Xiao Yi with a side-eye, curling the corner of his mouth into a faintly cold and mocking smile, "So you're the worthless younger brother of Xiao Tianjiao, Xiao Yi? I've heard your management of the Xiaoshanhe Institute isn't bad, which makes you quite suitable to be a dog of our imperial family. From now on, follow me! As long as you serve me well, I will put in a good word for you with Xiao Tianjiao. On account of my face, perhaps he won't make things difficult for you..."

Xiao Yi's eyes narrowed involuntarily as he scrutinized Yang Kun, saying coldly, "Keep babbling, and I'll shut that filthy mouth of yours forever!"

Yang Kun: "..." Stay updated through My Virtual Library Empire

Yang Ling: "..."

Everyone: "..."

Yang Kun pointed at himself, disbelievingly looking at Xiao Yi, "Are you... speaking to me?"

He was, after all, the Great Crown Prince!

He was also the direct disciple of the Tianjian Sect Leader and the senior brother of Xiao Tianjiao!

Even someone as strong as Shen Yan would respectfully call him Great Crown Prince Your Highness in his presence.

He found it unimaginable that Xiao Yi, a mere Tao Tribulation Realm cultivator, would dare to speak to him like this.

Yang Kun glared furiously, staring intently at Xiao Yi, "You're looking for death!"

"You can try and see who dies first!" Xiao Yi replied, neither servile nor overbearing.

If one does not offend me, I will not offend them; but if I am offended, I shall offend in return!

This was his principle of conduct.

Since Yang Kun had been sarcastically mocking and squeezing him out from the moment he arrived, why should Xiao Yi give hm any face?

"Cut off his tongue for me..." Yang Kun turned his gaze towards a strong practitioner of the Dharma Manifestation Realm's fifth level standing behind him.

"Yes!"

The Tianjian Sect disciple approached with a malicious smile, and with a clang, a silver hook shot out from his sleeve, sneering sinisterly, "Kid, do you spit out your tongue by yourself, or shall I hook it out and cut it off for you?"

"Cut your bullshit!"

Xiao Yi uttered in an expressionless tone.

"Seeking death!"

The young man's eyes were fierce as he swung his hand, and the iron hook with the flashing cold light headed straight for Xiao Yi's mouth.

"Be careful!"

Yang Ling's expression changed.

Yang Kun laughed contemptuously, "Wu Lin's 'Iron Drawing Silver Hook' has long been practiced to the transformation stage, capable of hooking anything. Xiao Yi's tongue won't be saved."

However...

Just as the silver hook was about to slash open Xiao Yi's mouth and hook onto his tongue, the hook abruptly stopped mid-air.

"Uh..."

Everyone was taken aback.

Xiao Yi was seen holding the hook in one hand, his gaze ice-cold, as if frost was condensing, he shouted lightly, "Since you like hooking other people's tongues so much, hook out your own first."

Swish!

Xiao Yi, still holding the iron hook, swiftly moved behind Wu Lin.

With his left hand, he reached out, grasping Wu Lin's throat.

At the same time, he flicked the iron hook...

Spurt!

Amidst the spurt of blood, the hook caught Wu Lin's tongue and with a violent tug pulled it out.

An entire tongue, along with the root, was ripped out.

It fell to the ground with a plop.

Wu Lin, with both hands covering his bloody mouth, lay on the ground, screaming in agony, but without a tongue, he could not make any sound.

Hiss!

Yang Kun: "..."

Yang Ling: "..."

Everyone: "..."

No one had anticipated Xiao Yi's move to be so decisive, nor had they expected his retaliation to be so forceful.

You wanted to cut off my tongue.

I will pull yours out by the root.

Yang Kun's face turned shades of green and white, grinding his teeth, he word by word said, "You're seeking death!"

"Your Highness, please, calm your anger..."

Shen Yan hurriedly stepped forward to mediate.

This place was the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect.

If Xiao Yi and Yang Kun were to conflict here, no matter who got injured from both sides, the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect would be caught up in no small trouble.

"Vice Sect Leader Shen, this is none of your business, better step aside..." Yang Kun said with a ferocious face.

Xiao Yi remained expressionless.

This made Yang Kun feel deeply insulted, his face darkening as he clenched his teeth furiously, "I must kill him!"

Shen Yan's face was bitter, about to speak, but then he saw a figure rushing over in a fluster, his face full of unease and agitation, "Vice Sect Leader Shen, something terrible has happened, Mo Jiao can't hold on much longer!"
