Master Qingluo's heart was filled with intense anger.
But the killing intent in Xu Nian's eyes caused his spirit to tremble.
Those terrifying eyes of Xu Nian,
were the first to make him feel so close to death in his long life.
If he had known that provoking Xu Xin would bring such a god of slaughter,
he wouldn't have provoked her even if you beat him to death.
"Buzz!"
An incredibly strong force of gravity ca from beneath his feet,
and Master Qingluo suddenly felt his body unable to move at all.
"What's happening? Why has my body suddenly beco so heavy?" Master Qingluo exclaid in surprise.
At this mont, he felt a terrifying great force pulling him down fiercely,
his entire body had beco at least nearly two hundred tis heavier.
"Pfft!"
Another Sword Radiance flashed by.
Instantly, a slice of flesh was cut from Master Qingluo's body,
thin as a cicada's wing, yet the pain was not any less intense.
"Pfft!"
Another sword strike.
Yet another slice of flesh was shaved off.
"Ah... just kill !" Master Qingluo let out a painful roar.
He had already understood the intention of the youth in front of him.
He intended to slice off the flesh from his entire body bit by bit while he was still alive.
He truly couldn't imagine that such vicious thods would co from a youth.
"I will slice off your flesh piece by piece until you reveal the whereabouts of my mother," Xu Nian said with a voice cold as ice,
his eyes as cold as the Nine Nether Ice Spring.
He knew that Master Qingluo's earlier claim of having killed his mother was deliberately intended to enrage him.
If his mother had truly been killed,
there should be her corpse.
Moreover, with the mother-son bond, he could feel that his mother was still alive.
He did not believe that Master Qingluo could hold out.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!"
Three more swords,
and three more chunks of flesh were cut from Master Qingluo's body,
The intense pain had twisted Master Qingluo's features into a grimace.
At this mont, his entire body was covered in blood.
Even though he was a Saint, he could not withstand having his flesh sliced off piece by piece while alive.
"I'll talk, I... I know where your mother is, stop your hand," Master Qingluo hastily spoke.
If he did not talk, Xu Nian might keep on slicing,
until all that was left of him would be a skeletal corpse.
"Damn it, why haven't people from the Xu Family co yet," Master Qingluo cursed inwardly.
He had been babbling all this while just to stall for ti,
waiting for the Xu Family Saint to co.
But it had been so long, and no Xu Family Saint had arrived,
If it dragged on, perhaps he would be scraped to death by Xu Nian before a Xu Family Saint even arrived.
"Speak!"
Xu Nian shouted harshly.
His voice was filled with anger,
knowing that Master Qingluo was deliberately stalling for ti.
Nevertheless, he did not care.
Even if people from the Xu Family ca, he would not let Master Qingluo go today.
"Your mother is at..." Master Qingluo began to speak,
but before he could finish, three whooshing sounds ca from the distance.
Then three figures appeared before Xu Nian and the others.
The one leading was an elderly man.
The other two were middle-aged n in appearance.
The elder had a long beard, and his deanor exuded a celestial and Taoist aura.
His eyes were bright and full of life as he scrutinized Xu Nian.
As for the two middle-aged n behind him, they wore serious expressions.
While they assessed Xu Nian, he was also sizing them up.
The cultivation of these three individuals was exceedingly high.
Both middle-aged n were of the Seven-star Saint Level.
As for the elder, without a doubt, he was of the Saint Peak Level.
Most crucially, he was a Body Saint.
A Peak Body Saint, a virtually invincible existence among those at the Saint Level.
"Release Master Qingluo at once," one of the middle-aged n barked sharply.
Xu Nian's brow furrowed, and a surge of irritation rose in his eyes.
Before he could speak, however, the elder motioned with a hand to silence him.
The two middle-aged n were visibly displeased, but they dared not defy the elder's command.
"Are you Xu Nian?" the elder asked Xu Nian with a smile, his face showing a touch of kindness.
"Yes," Xu Nian answered coldly.
He no longer harbored any fondness for the Xu Family.
If he did not need to ascertain his mother's whereabouts, he would not be wasting words with them here—he would've already slain this damn Master Qingluo with a single stroke of his sword.
"How bold, this is our family's Great Elder. Show so respect," the previously speaking middle-aged man imdiately scolded in dissatisfaction.
"Xu Ming, didn't I tell you to be quiet? Are you not even heeding my words?" the elder sternly admonished.
The middle-aged man nad Xu Ming imdiately closed his mouth and bowed his head.
However, the look he gave Xu Nian was extrely hostile.
Xu Nian simply watched the scene with a cold gaze.
He felt the elder before him seed sowhat familiar.
Yet he was certain he had never seen this elder before.
Therefore, the only possibility Xu Nian could think of was that the elderly man bore a resemblance to his mother.
"The young man sure has a fiery temper. Do you intend to kill our Xu Family's esteed guest right in front of ?" the elder said to Xu Nian, still smiling.
"Hmph, he abducted my mother and almost caused my sister's death. Do you think I'll spare him?" Xu Nian responded with a cold laugh.
If he did not suspect that the elderly man might be related to his mother,
he would not be wasting so much ti talking nonsense with the elder.
"Oh?"
Upon hearing this, the elder turned and glanced at Xu Xin lying unconscious on one side,
frowning deeply.
"Great Elder, don't listen to his nonsense. This youth is spouting pure rubbish; he's just here to cause trouble in the Xu Family. Kill him now," Master Qingluo hastily defended himself.
"Hmph, I've already warned you not to set your sights on Xu Xin. To think you'd be so brazen as to commit such a beastly act against a disciple of the Xu Family. You no longer deserve to be our distinguished guest," the elder retorted coldly, his gaze piercing.
A strong sense of unwillingness appeared on Master Qingluo's face.
Xu Nian, however, was taken aback.
He did not expect the elder to speak up for him.
However, he was still uncertain whether the elder was putting on an act or genuinely upholding justice.
"Xu Tianxu, you old fool. Your daughter has done so many shaful things, and yet you still protect her. Even if I'm no longer fit to be the Xu Family's honored guest, it's not your place to pronounce judgnt. I demand to see the Family Head!" Master Qingluo said defiantly.
"Hmph, you're not in any position to address Xu Tianxu!" the elder huffed coldly.
Then he promptly struck with a palm.
"Bang!"
Master Qingluo instantaneously turned into a mist of blood.
The surrounding crowd was all stunned.
The elder had actually killed Master Qingluo.
Not only were Xu Nian and the rest astonished, but so were the two middle-aged n standing behind the elder.
Clearly, the elder's actions were sowhat unconventional.
Xu Nian was also surprised, but not by the elder killing Master Qingluo.
It was the elder's identity that astonished him.
"Your guess is correct, I am indeed your mother's father, your grandfather Xu Tianxu," the elder revealed.
