67 Breaking Down the Lan Family
Ming Yuexin's heart thumped as countless scenarios jumped in her heart. Her heartbeat sped up as she clenched her fist.
" This is…Were you cultivating the Scorching Sumr Sword Technique and Energy Flowing Art?"
Ming Yuexin beca stunned as she nodded. " Brother Long is wise. I indeed cultivated the Sumr branch technique of the Four Seasons Valley. However, Because I was too hasty to surpass junior sister Mu, I neglected the hazards."
" Sect Master warned that the Sumr branch techniques got so faults. However, I didn't listen to her. Then, I faced a cultivation deviation."
"my ridians ruptured as the Scorching Fla Qi rampaged throughout my body."
" The powerful Yang Qi scalded my skin and now, here am I." Ming Yuexin lowered her head. Long Ming was stunned as he finally realized why Xia Yuqing asked him to get the complete Scorching Sumr Sword and Energy Flowing Art from the ancestral tablet.
" The only solution was to abandon my cultivation and restart from scratch. However…" She gritted her teeth as her eyes flashed with unwillingness. " I can't. I can't waste all the years and resources the sect poured in . I can't waste my ti to get revenge."
Long Ming could feel the excessive amount of Yang Qi in her body, rampaging in her ridians. He held her hands as he looked at Ming Yuexin.
" Sister Ming, do you trust ?"
Long Ming's eyes were like two azure pools of water, filled with imasurable mysteries. Seeing Long Ming's handso face so near along with his earnest tone, Ming Yuexin felt her blood rushing up to her head.
' Wh-What is this feeling? Why my heart is beating so fast? Long Ming is so handso, but It's my first ti seeing him so close.'
' Why he isn't disgusted with ? Am I not looking like a demon?'
But looking at Long Ming's face which was filled with warmth and emotion, Ming Yuexin felt her heart was lting with joy.
[ Ding! Ming Yuexin's favorability increased! Host gets 5000 AP]
[ Ming Yuexin ( S grade): Favorability 70! ( Affectionate!)]
" En, Everything you did till now is calculated. I am sure you won't harm ." Ming Yuexin looked at her side as she blushed.
" Then, Channel the True qi as I say." Long Ming spoke. Ming Yuexin nodded as Long Ming imparted the complete Scorching Sumr Flowing Energy Art.
Suddenly, Ming Yuexin shivered when she felt Long Ming's palm on her back. The overwhelming amount of Yang Qi was being absorbed by Long Ming as the remaining qi circulated in her body without a problem.
" This… This flow of energy wasn't painful as before!" Ming Yuexin was stunned as she hurriedly followed Long Ming's thod.
Here, Long Ming absorbed the Yang Qi from her body and started to refine it with his own Scarlet Yang Qi.
Although both energies were different, their root is the sa. Long Ming could feel a warm current through her body as Yang qi was refining his bones and muscles.
' With this, my physical body can grow to another level.' Long Ming greedily devoured all the Yang Qi from Ming Zhu's body, stabilizing her condition.
However, at the sa ti, The Fragrant Blossoms of Endless Spring Art activated as it drew out a large amount of Fragrant Yin Qi from Ming Yuexin's body and poured it into his.
' Eh? But why the Fragrant Yin Qi is so dense? She is that affectionate toward ??' Long Ming muttered inwardly.

" Haah! Haah, We won!"
Pirates shouted in joy as they killed the remaining Lan family mbers on Coral Island.
" Hehe, Lan Family is going to suffer a lot. Also, using this chance, we are going to steal the other mining island from them." Chen Geyi gave a devious laugh as he saw the corpses on the island.
But then, everyone's expression changed when they saw a giant flying boat arrive on the island.
" This…Four Seasons Valley? What are they doing here?" Chen Geyi beca confused.
Mu Qinglian appeared as her black dress fluttered in the air. While looking at the scene. Mu Qinglian chuckled as she walked forward.
" The Lan Family's mbers were ambushed and killed by the pirates. To deliver justice, Four Season Valley shall take action and eradicate the pirates along with their patron, Three Feathers Group."
" What?"
At that mont, Chen Geyi realized that he got fucked by Long Ming.
" Motherfucker!"
All the pirates raised their weapons in vigilance as they looked at Mu Qinglian. Several disciples of Four Seasons Valley appeared as they stood behind her.
" Senior Sister, Shall we?"
" No need. I need to exercise a bit." Mu Qinglian spoke as she walked toward Chen Geyi.
" Hmph! A lass of Primordial Spirit Realm dares to threaten ?!" Chen Geyi's Harmonization Realm aura exploded as he raised his hand.
' Well, Now you will see what this lass can do.'
Mu Qinglian's eyes narrowed as she unsheathed her sword. The mont her sword appeared, the world turned silent.
" You! You are…!!!"
In the next mont, Chen Geyi's inhumane scream rang throughout the island.

As the night passed, there was no information about Coral Island nor about the scouting squad. But, Patriarch Lan didn't know about that as he woke up after sleep.
" Mm? What is this commotion?" Lan Xiao asked his servant.
" What? An elder from Four Seasons Valley ca here?" Lan Xiao's expression turned serious as he hurriedly got up.
Adjusting the attire, he walked to the eting hall.
" Greetings, Patriarch Lan. I am ng Zhi, from Four Seasons Valley." ng Zhi spoke in a light voice.
" Welco, Elder ng, to our humble Lan Family. What is the reason you ca here?"
ng Zhi was startled. " Hmm? Do you really not know the reason? About what happened in Coral Island last night?"
" Huh?"
Patriarch Lan felt an ominous feeling in his heart as he looked at his servant. " Was there any news from Coral Island last night?"
" Reporting to Patriarch, There was none." The servant bowed as he spoke.
" I see, No wonder you didn't know." ng Zhi sighed as she produced a photographic jade and activated it.
" Bastards! You dare to ambush us?!"
" Keke, Why not? After today, Lan Family will turn into a paper tiger!"
Lan Xiao's expression changed drastically when he saw the projection of the photographic jade.
" Isn't that people from Three Feather group and Sea Skull Pirates?!"
" They attacked our people?!"
Lan Xiao stood up and looked at ng Zhi. " When did this happen? Why this photographic jade is with you?"
" Aha! I think Patriarch Lan is thinking of going to Coral Island, yes?" ng Zhi sighed. " Unfortunately, There is nothing remaining in that place. All of the Lan Family troop was annihilated."
" What?!"
" Impossible!"
" You must be lying!"
ng Zhi's tone was calm as she spoke. " Last night, Thee Feathers group and Sea Skull Pirates joined hands and ambushed the Lan Family's troops in Coral Island. One of our disciples saw the pirates attacking our sacred place, so he sent a distress signal."
" Thankfully, I and so of the disciples happened to pass by. So, We decided to co here. But when we arrived, all of them were dead." ng Zhi sighed as she waved her hands. A head rolled on the floor.
" But don't worry, we have avenged them by killing Chen Geyi and the Sea Skull Pirates."
Lan Xiao felt his hands and legs turning cold when he saw that. That head was unmistakably Chen Geyi's. So, That ans what ng Zhi said was probably the truth.
" Well, Also, From now, We shall be taking care of all the mining islands under Lan Family for while." ng Zhi spoke.
Lan Xiao's body trembled when he heard that. " What do you an by for a while? Isn't this for seven days?"
ng Zhi was startled. " Is that so? Patriarch Lan, Can you show the contract, please?"
Lan Xiao snorted as he asked soone to bring the contract. " Here, This is the contract your disciple asked to sign. It is clearly stated that you will be only taking the mines for seven days."
ng Zhi read the contract and her grin widened. " Well, Patriarch Lan, Will you read the bottom text again carefully?"
Lan Xiao's expression turned strange when he read the contract again.
" And therefore, Four Seasons Valley shall be taking the mining islands for seven days. And after seven days, the sect will retreat from the islands and it will beco ownerless."
But then, realization dawned as Lan Xiao almost coughed a mouthful of blood.
" Well? It states that after seven days, the Island will beco ownerless. But I doubt if Lan Family still have the power to keep those island under their control. I an, you guys already lost more than ⅔ of your forces."
" And since these are ownerless islands, first co first serve, right?"
" Damn it! How dare you trick us! You think our Lan Family will let it go?!"
" And? So, What?" ng Zhi's eyes narrowed, but her smile remained the sa. " Well, I guess we will return to the island. But then, I don't think Huo Family will let go of this chance."
" And when the conflict will happen, what do you think will happen if Huo Family got so extra support?"
" You!!"
" Enough, Patriarch Lan! Since we have co to this stage, Let's stop pretending." ng Zhi snorted. " Thousands of years ago, your ancestors betrayed the grace of Four Seasons Valley. Not to ntion you, Who made the ore supply difficult and even killed so of our disciples stationed here. You think we didn't know?"
" I rember you gave our sect master two choices then, right?" ng Zhi walked forward as she handed a black scroll to him. " Now we give you two choices."
" Either, sign this contract. Or, We will leave and completely help Huo Family to overthrow you. And believe , if you are thinking of asking any other sect to help you, you know it will be the sa as calling wolves into your house."
" This is… Bloodline Pact?"
" Indeed. After signing, if you break the contract, not only you but the entire bloodline of Lan Family's main branch will suffer from this curse." ng Zhi smiled.
When Patriarch Lan read the contract, his expression turned ugly. " ng Zhi, Don't you go too far!"
" Too far? I guess you are still thinking that you have three Harmonization Realm cultivators so you can still save Lan Family?" ng Zhi giggled lightly. " But, do you think three people can keep protecting all of the family all the ti? I wonder."
Lan Xiao trembled as his eyes spat our flas of anger. But calculating the loss, the Lan Family indeed lost ⅔ of the force. A single mistake and their enemies will pounce on them. And they will not hesitate to wipe out their entire bloodline.
" Fine…"
