847 14.123 Last Violet Star – (Past) How strong is he?
At the Xie Clan’s Main Mansion
During the prison break orchestrated by Zero and his squad, the majority of their inmates had fled.
The most crucial individual they needed to bring back had vanished, albeit other invaders and hostages were slain while trying to flee.
The Clan Leader, Xie Gui, was informed of this information, and when he heard it, he fell into a frenzy and immediately slaughtered his men. His fits of insanity had started occurring increasingly regularly. Within the Xie Clan, killing scenes like this one, where victims were poisoned to death, were already commonplace.
“I’ve instructed you to bring that youngster back no matter what! He still escaped? That implies you didn’t execute your job well enough,” exclaims Xie Gui in a rage.
All of the other members of the Xie Clan had bowed their heads. All of them were terrified, but some of them were also suppressing their rage. It was precisely them who elected this insane tyrant to rule their Clan. They are forced to undergo the humiliation of receiving such a reprimand in silence. Xie Gui would actually behave like a lunatic after he had entirely fallen victim to his inner demons. His temper had become worse, and he would sometimes murder out of petty annoyance or fury. Few people are willing to stay close to him because of this.
“Speak! Where is the youngster now?” demanded Xie Gui.
“In response to the Clan Leader’s inquiry, they had returned to the Lan Zhuayun Sect.”
“Bring that child back then and simply totally demolish that useless place! Lan Zhuayun Sect? Just that area... It still wasn’t destroyed! Do I even need to order anything that basic?”
.....
“B-But Clan Leader... We’ve lost two elders as a result of the array formation surrounding that Sect having been mended and strengthened to the point that we could not destroy it no matter what we do.”
“Is that so...? Doesn’t that just mean you are weak?” Sneered Xie Gui.
Upon hearing this news, Xie Gui frowns momentarily, but he doesn’t appear to be affected in any way by the deaths of the two elders. It appeared as though he had lost all interest in the welfare of his people.
“That’s all you wanted to say... Clan Leader, we’ve many too many enemies. If they all attack at once then we...”
BOOOM!!!
Loud explosions could be heard coming from outside the hall, stopping the Clansmen of Xie in their tracks before they could finish their sentences.
“What is happening!?”
“That direction is from the gates of the Clan. Are there intruders!?”
“Someone go out and check!”
Xie Gui sat on his Clan Leader’s throne and watched them with an uninterested expression while everyone else in the Xie Clan was in turmoil about this situation. All he can see is the figure of the man with the silver eyes staring down at him, this is his inner demon, and becomes detached from the clan that possessed his bloodline. Ever since then, he had entirely lost interest in his clan and this caused his eyes to seem to be disoriented as he could hardly distinguish between reality and his inner demons’ illusions.
Only he can hear the various voices that continue to echo in his ears. The voice that is most frequently heard has a young man’s mischievous, cheeky tone.
A guard who was keeping an eye on the clan rushed into the hall to report what was happening.
The blood of his own clansmen is all over him.
“R-Reporting!!! The Sect Alliance composed of Lan Zhuayun, Lu Weifeng, Jin Tiangui, and Bai Lengshui Sects had gathered and all attacked our Xie Clan together!”
The elders in the room were appalled and in a state of shock. They had finally experienced what they had most feared. They intended to take over the capital and the royal family, gradually crush the major sects one at a time, and then eventually reach out to the Upper Realms to become the most powerful clan in the Mortal Realm.
However, their Clan Leader publicly attacked the four major sects and even exterminated the Bai Lengshui Sect. They were able to quickly kill the Bai Lengshui Sect but were unable to do it with the other three sects since it is an exclusive clan with few ties to the common people in the North Territories. The other three Sects are different though.
The Lan Zhuayan Sect was known for being the most righteous. There are a lot of small clans or sects who would willingly fight for them as they were known as upright cultivators who fought for the good of everyone.
As for the Lu Clan, due to the fact that the majority of the members of the Lu Weifeng Sect were once commoners, they enjoyed a strong relationship with the whole city.
The merchant clan was known as the Jin Tiangui Sect. It is extremely difficult to eliminate them because they collaborated with renegade cultivators and had links to several mercenaries. Moreover, eliminating them meant the downfall of the economy in this realm.
An Elder of the clan asked, “Who was leading the intruders?”
“There are four young men. The eldest lord of the Lu Clan, Lu Wang. The Heir of the Jin Tiangui Sect, Jin Shiyan. The Second Young Master of Yun, Yun Jieye, and his Dao Companion, one of the few remnants of the Bai Lengshui Sect. The Ice Demon, Bai Wuan!”
As the last name was pronounced, everyone in the corridor turned to face their clan head. This Bai Wuan had grown to be one of their Lord’s obsessions ever since he had developed an inner demon condition. The Ice Demon of the Bai Lengshui Sect, Bai Wuan, is said to have been born with dazzling silver eyes that seem to be a physical incarnation of the moon and snow. Their Leader’s inner demons were brought on by a man who also had silver eyes, thus Bai Wuan received his hatred rather than an unidentified individual.
Xie Gui’s interest had flared and mumbled, “Bai. Wuan?”
Hahaha~
The insane leader of the Xie Clan said, “Finally! You are here!” as he ran out of the hall to confront the prey he had been waiting to see for so long. Only their Clan Leader could lead the others outdoors to engage in war with the Sect Alliance.
—
Everyone had assembled in front of the Xie Clan’s entry gates once all war preparations were complete.
“Destroy the gates,” Lu Yi motioned to the people standing behind him.
Before their own eyes, several of the Lu Yi-led troops carried out his orders and immediately smashed the massive, ornate gate. Lu Yi was accompanied by Jin Shiyan and Zero. They decide to use the terrain to attack. While they waited for the Great Ancestor of the Xie Clan to emerge, Bai Wuan and Yun Xiajie flew all by themselves.
Lu Yi gave the order to kill everyone when the door was demolished. The suddenness of their onslaught caught everyone in the Xie Clan off guard. There aren’t enough guards on duty, and the majority of them were just hanging around and not doing their actual tasks. The guards who were the strongest were merely at the foundation stage of peak establishment. Lu Yi and the others had no trouble killing their way inside.
None of the others, even Lu Yi, showed pity. They spared no one, killing every Xie they encountered along the route. similar to how these individuals had attacked their Sects at the time and harassed them.
“Kill everyone! Spare no one!” command Lu Yi.
“Yes, Sir!”
Zero spoke, “I will move on my own here to contact my people. There is a group of Demonic Cultivators that join the Xie Clan. Better make sure to burn all the corpses to ashes.”
“Leave it to me,” said Jin Shiyan as he took another group to clean up the corpses.
Zero vanished immediately after issuing a few more cautionary statements. On his own, he teleported someplace.
They all decide to burn all the corpses to ashes listening to Zero’s warning. Half of the Xie Clan’s domain was obliterated in a couple of minutes. They were under siege from all sides, and the majority of the disciples and cultivators who had accompanied them had lost a friend, a relative, or a lover. As a result, they were unable to contain their rage at this time and decided to get revenge on all of them.
They suddenly sensed an unidentified aura moving at them at a high rate of speed. Everyone knew Xie Gui as soon as he made his arrival. He had a golden crown on his head and was dressed in a crimson and black brocade robe. He used his sword to soar while looking down on the onlookers who had gathered in front of his house. He watched as they destroyed his kin without showing any emotion and was indifferent.
He scans his surroundings as though seeking someone or something. He lost his fury and started hearing voices in his brain when he couldn’t find the person he wanted to visit.
“He is not here~”
“You’ve been played... Hahaha~”
“You didn’t have anything that could bring that person out. Why would he come and meet you?”
“Fool~ your useless clansmen are lying to you ~”
As a result of his inner demons, Xie Gui’s eyes gradually become bloodshot. In an effort to block out the ringing in his ears, he shook his head. His mental state was most impacted by their voices, and he eventually snapped.
“WHERE. IS. HE!?” Xie Gui screams.
Lu Yi and the others frowned as they all regarded him. They were under strain from his aura, which they could sense. The coercion of Xie Gui impacted everyone who was a little weaker than Golden Core Stage, but Lu Yi and Jin Shiyan worked together to repel the man’s aura.
They all knew he was looking for Bai Wuan after hearing what the old monster of Xie Gui had stated. But they also observed Xie Gui’s crimson eyes and the clear indications of Qi Deviation.
“Senior Brother Wang... His aura is strong but... why do I sense he is a bit lacking...?” Jin Shiyan said.
“His power has even dropped, at least to the early Nascent Soul Stage, and... His aura keeps growing weaker, therefore the reports of him collapsing and being plagued by inner demons weren’t made up,” stated Lu Yi.
Jin Shiyan asked, “Should we attack him with Brother Wuan and Yun Jieye?”
“No need. Our main focus was never his. In the first place. The Xie Clan’s elders are all coming up. Prepare for battle,” said Lu Yi.
Xie Gui keeps scanning the skies in anticipation of the person who embodies his inner demons emerging. But nobody came to greet him even after he yelled. He lost all control and lifted his blade, glaring at everyone under him.
“Since you are not coming out then... These people that you’ve brought here must all perish beneath my sword!” screamed a fully insane Xie Gui.
WHOOSHED!
KLANG!
As a Nascent Soul Cultivator, he circulated all of his qi while using his sword as a medium to channel sword intent. Xie Gui’s target is none other than the Sect Alliance group under his foot. However, even before his sword blow reached its intended target, the voice of Guqin reverberated over the whole valley, nullifying it. He was met by Yun Xiajie, who was holding a pure black jade guqin in his left and a sword in his right hand.
Yun Xiajie spoke, “Your opponent would be me.”
“The Second Child of Yun Huye! Stop interfering, where is your Dao Companion?!”
However, someone suddenly materialized from behind Xie Gui and kicked him away from the others before he could even hear a response.
“I am here~” The owner of the voice is a young man in a white Taoist robe with long silver hair streaming behind him and a set of silver eyes. He was grinning slyly from the corner of his mouth.
Directly teleporting behind Xie Gui and hurling him away from the main mansion where everyone is fighting was Bai Wuan.????e?????????????el. ??om
“You fucking little brat!!!”
As he cursed Bai Wuan, Xie Gui was kicked away by the person he was looking for. The entire valley was filled with the echo of his voice. Yun Xiajie nodded at his sweetheart and then pursued the man in character. Although the image they saw startled everyone, Bai Wuan’s smiling persuaded them differently.
Bai Wuan, “Brother Wang, we’ll leave things here for you and Shilu to handle.”
“Sure. Have fun,” said Lu Yi.
“Oh, before I forget,” said Bai Wuan as he scanned the surroundings and noticed a few elders at Peak Golden Core from the Xie Clan. They were all staring at him while simultaneously being terrified. “You old things ought to go, too.”
AHHH. AAAHHH...
An ice rain descended upon the Xie Clan elders with a wave of his hand taking their lives instantly.
Before leaving the area to chase after his husband, he hunts down those opponents that Lu Yi and Jin Shiyan were unable to vanquish.
The others looked at one another after Bai Wuan had departed and could see the horror on their features. They even found it hard to comprehend that Bai Wuan had just casually killed a few Elders of the Xie Clan in front of them. Even minutes were needed to overcome them. He merely needs to wave his hand to attack them once and finish them off.
Jin Shiyan muttered, “How powerful is Brother Wuan exactly?
“You can consider him and his Dao Companion the strongest in this realm... Continue the talk later. Focus on the battle!” said Lu Yi.
