Chapter 167 Descend Into The Abyss: The Su Family's Fiery Demise (3)
?
Su Yang's blood-curdling scream suddenly came to an abrupt halt, and his face contorted into a mask of pure horror.
His eyes widened, and his body was stiff with shock.
Nei Li was bewildered and turned to look at Su Wei, her voice shaking as she muttered, "W-What?"
Su Wei's eyes bulged out of their sockets, and his stomach began to swell uncontrollably.
He clutched at his abdomen as waves of pain shot through his body.
The room was filled with a thick, oppressive silence, broken only by Su Wei's guttural screams of agony.
In no time, Su Wei's screams grew louder and more frenzied as his stomach continued to expand, as if he was about to give birth.
His body was shaking violently, and his skin had turned a sickly shade of green.
He started vomiting, the contents of his stomach spilling out onto the floor.
The acrid smell of bile mixed with the metallic tang of blood filled the air.
Nei Li couldn't hold back the bile that rose in her throat, and she too began to vomit.
Su Yang was frozen in place, unsure of what to do. He felt a sense of dread wash over him, as if he was witnessing something unspeakable and sinister.
He couldn't help but glance down at his manhood, realizing that he had just slept with Su Wei. How could he have known that this would happen?
"What in the world is happening?" Su Yang wondered, fear gripping his heart.
The room was now filled with an ominous energy, and it seemed as if the very air was pulsing with dark energy.
------
Su Family Territory...
Xia Tian and Bi Huang stood atop a nearby hill, gazing down at the Su Family Territory.
The night sky was illuminated by the flickering lights of the torches that lined the perimeter of the estate.
The Su Family's main manor loomed in the center, a sprawling palace that seemed to stretch on forever.
Xia Tian's eyes glowed with a fierce light, as he smiled faintly and turned to Bi Huang with a nod of approval.
She understood the signal and immediately sprang into action.
Her vermillion flames burst out of her at full speed, enveloping the entire Su Family in a fiery haze.
The flames spread quickly, igniting everything in their path. The sound of crackling wood and the scent of burning flesh filled the air.
The cultivators of the Su Family began to rush out of their houses, some screaming in terror, others confused and unsure of what was happening.
Abruptly, a blood-curdling scream shattered the tumult.
The sound emanated from the main manor where Su Lan, the head of the Su Family, burst out with his face twisted in anger and disbelief.
"Who dares to attack my family?!" he roared, his voice ricocheting across the fierce inferno.
Behind him, a beautiful woman appeared, her forehead drenched with sweat. "Husband, what's happening? Who's attacking us?" she asked with anxiety.
Su Lan, the father of Su Yang and Su Yanling, scowled at his wife's question, scanning the area for any signs of the assailants, but there was nothing. "Extinguish the fire! Now!" he barked.
The guards hastened to douse the flames, aided by the cultivators and elders, while Su Lan scoured the scene for the source of the attack.
Everyone had fled out of their quarters, but Su Yang, Su Yanling, and Real Mei Ling remained trapped inside, their fate unknown in the midst of the blazing chaos.
The great elders of the clan, Su Mei, Su Hua, Su Xia, and Su Li, wasted no time in taking command as soon as they heard about the sudden fire.
Their faces were etched with worry and determination as they scrambled to organize the members of their clan.
Su Xia, Su Mei, and Su Li were daughters of Su Rong, and they stood tall and strong, ready to face any challenge that came their way.
Su Hua and Su Lan, Su Rong's sons, were equally determined and focused on the task at hand.
As the group of elders discussed their plan of action, Su Rong emerged from her dwelling.
Her expression was grave and serious as she surveyed the scene before her.
She knew that they had to act fast if they were going to control the raging inferno.
"What happened?" she asked Su Mei, her voice firm and commanding.
Su Mei shook her head, her face filled with concern. "The fire started all of a sudden, and neither qi nor water is working!" she exclaimed.
Su Rong's eyes narrowed in suspicion as she tried to make sense of the situation.
She knew that they had to act quickly if they were going to save their clan.
"Wait for me!" she declared, her voice ringing out clear and strong.
With a swift movement, she shot up into the sky, her figure disappearing into the distance at an astounding speed.
The other elders watched her go, their hearts filled with hope and determination.
They knew that with Su Rong leading the way, they would be able to overcome any obstacle that lay in their path, Su Rong injury was already healed, now she should be unstoppable except facing against the Sword fairy.
On the ground, more and more people started to gather.
They were the sons and daughters of the great elders, all eager to lend a hand in any way they could.
Su Yang's family was also outside, including his four wives and numerous dual cultivation partners.
Liang Meijia, who was also Su Yang's mother, was surrounded by a group of people.
Her daughter-in-laws and grandkids were all standing around her, their faces etched with worry and concern.
Liang Meijia had only two children, Su Yanling and Su Yang.
Su Yanling was unmarried, while Su Yang had multiple wives.
Four of his main wives were surrounding their mother-in-law, offering comfort and support.
The first wife, Chen Xiaoxuan, had blonde hair that shimmered in the moonlight.
The second wife, Wang Yaqi, had raven hair that flowed down her back in waves.
The third wife, Yang Xinyue, had brunette hair that framed her face in soft curls.
The fourth and last wife, Xu Ruiqi, had blue hair that sparkled in the light of the stars.
In addition to the wives, there were also seven dual cultivation partners present: Wu Yan, Zhou Wenjing, Huang Xiaohan, Lin Xiaomin, Shen Yujie, Gao Xiaoxi, and Sun Jiaxin.
They all stood ready to assist in any way they could, their expressions resolute and determined.
Su Yang had four children in total: Su Wei, Su Yilin, Su Xiaomeng, and Su Yuting
His eldest child was a son, Su Wei, born before Su Yang's ancient yang body was activated, Su Wei's mother was Wang Yaqi.
Su Yilin and Su Xiaomeng were the twin daughters of Su Yang and Chen Xiaoxuan, and they were a sight to behold.
Su Yilin had striking blonde hair that shone like gold in the moonlight, while Su Xiaomeng's hair was pure white, like a snowflake.
They were both beautiful and intelligent, with a love for learning and exploring the world around them.
Su Yang was proud of his daughters and loved watching them grow and learn.
Lastly, there was Su Yuting, born to Su Yang and his beloved wife Xu Ruiqi.
Su Yuting had gorgeous blue hair that shimmered in the night, making her stand out from her siblings.
She was a sweet and caring child, always looking out for her siblings and making sure that they were happy.
Su Yang adored his youngest daughter and loved spending time with her.
[A/N: Why No age mentioned? - No Age, No Case!]
In the sky...
Su Yong stood gracefully in the air, her figure illuminated by the soft moonlight.
Her eyes narrowed as she stared down at two specific spots - Su Yang's room and the room where Su Yanling was trapped.
The flames in both places were not spreading, and it was a strange sight.
Curious, Su Rong extended her hand and took a bit of fire into her palm.
Her expression turned surprised as she examined the flame. "What type of demonic technique is this?" she muttered, studying the fire that was not burning her hand.
She continued to observe the flame, noting that it seemed to have no burning properties at all. Even the houses made of wood were not turning to ash, which was very unusual.
But what really shocked Su Rong was the flame's ability to drain her energy. If she continued to be exposed to it, her reserves might get exhausted.
Panic set in as Su Rong looked around for an exit, but the whole place was sealed. "Damn!" she cursed under her breath, feeling trapped.
Suddenly, her eyes shook heavily as she remembered a special type of flame that could burn qi within others - the Vermillion Phoenix.
She sucked in a cold breath, unable to believe her mind. "No, it can't be!" she thought. "How could someone in our family bring such calamity here?"
Although she suspected that it was the flames of the Vermillion Phoenix itself, she had to dismiss that thought and think of alternatives.
The situation was dire, and she needed to act fast.
Perched atop the hill, Xia Tian's eyes were fixed on Bi Huang.
As he gazed at her, he couldn't help but notice the queenly aura and grace that emanated from her.
But instead of being awed by her presence, Xia Tian's mind was consumed by intrusive thoughts that he couldn't seem to shake off.
"I want to destroy your elegance and make you beg to me," he said, his voice devoid of any emotion, as if he was seriously contemplating carrying out his dark desires.
Bi Huang's expression changed in an instant, a sudden chill running down her spine.
She knew she couldn't say anything, so she nodded in acknowledgement.
Xia Tian was the kind of man who always acted on his intrusive thoughts, and if he had said he wanted to destroy her pride, he would do it without a second thought.
Tears welled up in Bi Huang's eyes as she tried to appear like a tamed servant.
But despite her best efforts, her face was still full of charm and pride, which seemed to only further enrage Xia Tian.
He let out a bored sigh and cracked his muscles, preparing for the next action. 'Tsk, she's no fun!' he thought, his eyes still fixed on Bi Huang.
If the woman didn't resist or fight, how was he supposed to enjoy himself?
Bi Huang was at a loss.
She didn't know how it had offended Xia Tian, but she knew that she was in trouble.
However, unlike others, she wasn't going to run or resist.
She knew that the consequences of doing so would be even more dire.
As the tension between them continued to mount, Bi Huang didn't realize that she had inadvertently saved herself by agreeing with Xia Tian's twisted commands.
Xia Tian's attention shifted abruptly from Bi Huang to Su Yang's room, where a panicking Su Yang caught his eye.
His eyes glinted as he focused on her, and he asked in a serious tone, "Hey, Bird Woman! Do you know what the last stage of anger is?"
'Bird Woman?'
Bi Huang's face twitched in disbelief at the surreal name Xia Tian gave her, a majestic phoenix.
She stared at him in amazement, momentarily speechless by his ability.
After a brief pause, she composed herself and answered, "Isn't it when the cultivator loses their senses and destroys everything in anger?"
Xia Tian smiled faintly, but his eyes betrayed a hint of mischief. "That isn't the last stage," he replied cryptically, his words causing Bi Huang's eyes to flicker with curiosity.
She resisted questioning him, knowing that she would witness the answer soon enough.
Suddenly, her eyes shone with a newfound determination as she narrowed her gaze on Su Rong's figure.
Remembering Xia Tian's last instructions, she vanished from her place, leaving behind only flames.
Su Rong's eyes widened in shock as a flame started to form in front of her, resembling the figure of a person.
Her heart pounded anxiously as she thought of the worst possible scenario.
Once the gracious figure of Bi Huang revealed itself, Su Rong's expression turned instantly ugly.
"D-Divine Phoenix! Your Majesty!" she exclaimed in awe, immediately falling to her knees. "Please forgive us mortals if we have offended you in any way!"
Even in the presence of such a magnificent being, Su Rong felt suffocated and intimidated as she stared into Bi Huang's eyes.
Bi Huang couldn't help but smile wryly at the sight of the trembling mortal.
"My master has called you. Come with me," she commanded, her figure gliding in a certain direction.
Su Rong's eyes shook heavily, and her mind raced with disbelief.
'M-Master?' she sucked a cold breath, at the thought of who can be the master of this majestic divine phoenix?
Who was qualified?
Su Rong felt that her ears were lying, but she didn't dare to delay.
...
Bi Huang let out a frustrated sigh, wondering why Xia Tian had specifically chosen her to carry out his plan of destroying the Su Family.
She knew that he had his own motives, but involving her had only made matters worse, plunging the world into further chaos and confusion.
As they stood in the Celestial Phoenix Nebula, a territory controlled by Ice Phoenix, Bi Huang couldn't help but feel out of place.
Her territory, the Heavenly Phoenix Cluster, was ruled by fire phoenixes, and the vermillion flames were special to her.
The events of today were sure to make headlines in the ruler of the Celestial Phoenix Nebula, and there was a high chance that it would be taken as a sign of war, increasing tensions between both races.
But Bi Huang knew that there was little she could do to prevent it.
Xia Tian's madness was well-known, and anyone who had witnessed it knew better than to try and stop him.
He was like a wildfire, impossible to control once he had been ignited.
If Bi Huang were to ask Xia Tian to get her clan out of this chaos, she knew that he would only create an even bigger chaos with a imaginary mischievous grin on his face. "You wanted your clan out of this chaos? I did that already. Now it's not just in a small chaotic situation; it's in even bigger chaos! Hahaha!"
His imaginary words echoed into her mind, making Bi Huang shiver without cold.
