Hu Ying'er's revenge, undoubtedly stirred a grand wave throughout the entire Southeast Territory of the Tenglong Continent. Moreover, as ti passed, everyone knew that the mysterious vengeful girl was targeting none other than the Southeast Territory's dominant force, the Xiao Family.
Because Hu Ying'er's revenge was completely without any concealnt, indeed it could be said to be brazen to the extre. At first, everyone thought this girl was overestimating her capabilities by challenging a giant.
After all, the Xiao Family is one of the thirteen top forces. Even if it ranks at the bottom among the first-class forces, it is still a colossal presence in the Southeast Outer Domain of the Tenglong Continent.
For countless years, hardly anyone dared to challenge the Xiao Family, unless they were the most top-tier forces that dared not regard the Xiao Family with any respect.
Yet this girl, erging from nowhere, dared to eliminate a branch of the Xiao Family, which was simply reckless and suicidal. It was feared that she wouldn't last long and would soon be torn apart under the Xiao Family's pursuit.
But as ti went on, the developnt of events surprised everyone, leaving their eyes wide open in disbelief.
Because the Hu Family girl nad Hu Ying'er had indeed wiped out several Xiao Family city branch offices in the Southern Domain and Southeast Territory of the Tenglong Continent, almost exterminating all the Xiao Family's outer branches.
Each ti Hu Ying'er destroyed a Xiao Family branch, she left a row of blood-stained words on the main hall's walls: 'Killer: Hu Family's Hu Ying'er.'
Such arrogant behavior not only infuriated the Xiao Family but also made everyone aware of who was behind this. Moreover, so inquisitive individuals found out about the events in Ancient Moon City and finally pieced together the story.
Originally, for the Xiao Family as the dominant family of the Southeast Outer Domain, it wasn't a big deal for their top talent Xiao Qihang to fancy a young lady from a small family. Even if they wiped out the family to seize her, nobody dared to utter a word.
Yet this ti, Xiao Qihang had indeed stirred up trouble, as a survivor from a small family unexpectedly grew into a powerful expert on the Continent, making all the Xiao Family branches completely vulnerable and swept away.
After the news spread, many cultivators, although not daring to speak openly, felt secretly pleased, as the Xiao Family had long been tyrannical and unprincipled in this Southeast Territory, thus naturally did not have a good reputation.
Seeing the Xiao Family humbled was naturally delightful, yet many cultivators still did not hold high hopes for the girl nad Hu Ying'er. After all, the strongest within those branches probably hadn't reached the Earth Bending Realm; the true experts were still at the Xiao Family headquarters.
While outsiders watched the spectacle, the ssage undoubtedly reached the Xiao Family headquarters. Of course, they wouldn't consider Xiao Qihang, the clan leader's grandson, to be at fault; it was rely the remnants of the Hu Family that were faulty.
The Xiao Family seniors were enraged, so within recent months, they continuously dispatched experts of the Earth Bending Realm attempting to hunt down Hu Ying'er, only to be stunned by the outco once again.
Those Earth Bending Realm experts of the Xiao Family not only failed to capture the vengeful girl, but almost all ended up never returning. This even included a Xiao Family elder who had reached the Late Stage of the Earth Bending Realm.
An elder of Late Stage Earth Bending Realm, even for a first-class force like the Xiao Family, is not easily cultivated.
Until the corpse of this elder was sent back to the Xiao Family headquarters, and seeing the blood-stained blood paper on him with the eight large characters 'Killer: Hu Family's Hu Ying'er,' even the Xiao Family Patriarch beca silent.
Once this news spread, the entire Southern Domain of the Tenglong Continent was shocked, wondering who on earth is Hu Family's Hu Ying'er, could her talent be even more formidable than those top forces' peerless geniuses?
It's a joke, even a Late Stage Earth Bending Realm elder of the Xiao Family was counter-killed by her, indicating her ridian Qi Cultivation had at least reached the Late Stage of Earth Bending Realm. If true, individuals like Gu Changsheng and Long Xiwawa were indeed no match for her.
Apart from outsiders' conjectures, the death of the Late Stage Earth Bending Realm Xiao Family elder finally made the Xiao Family realize so trouble.
Of course, it was rely trouble because, with Heaven Rank experts guarding the Xiao Family, that's the real pillar allowing them to stand on the Tenglong Continent for countless years without collapsing.
'Summon all clan mbers back to headquarters, let her co!'
Eventually, it was announced by the current Xiao Family Patriarch, Xiao Zhenting, causing all clan mbers to withdraw fully, knowing well that Hu Ying'er, intent on avenging, probably wouldn't rely destroy so outer branches and stop.
The culpable person in this matter was Xiao Qihang, but he was the beloved grandson of Patriarch Xiao Zhenting and possibly the successor to the next clan leader; how could the Xiao Family easily hand him over?
Furthermore, the Xiao Family had long been tyrannical in this Southeast Territory of the Tenglong Continent; a lone Hu Ying'er, even with the ability to kill Late Stage experts, could not truly threaten them.
The Xiao Family Patriarch's decision spread like wildfire throughout the Southeast Territory of the Tenglong Continent, even attracting experts from places like Sky Thunder Valley and Impermanence Island.
Thus, when Hu Ying'er ca alone to the Xiao Family headquarters, countless cultivators were watching this drama, although they inwardly saw little hope for the Hu Family girl, given the sheer strength of the Xiao Family overall.
'Are you Hu Ying'er?'
The Xiao Family Patriarch did not speak, instead, a cold voice ca from the Great Elder, Xiao Changlin. He could clearly sense the peak Earth Bending Realm aura from the girl, feeling a shock while a sneer surfaced unconsciously.
Honestly, Xiao Changlin had never heard of anyone reaching peak Earth Concealing at the re age of sixteen or seventeen; however, he, confident in his early-stage Heavenly Rank Floating Life Realm strength, naturally did not regard any Earth-rank cultivators.
Given the other's formidable cultivation talent, Xiao Changlin was resolved never to repeat past mistakes, allowing this girl to escape easily. If that happened, the Xiao Family might truly face catastrophic destruction soday.
"Hand over Xiao Qihang, along with the murderers who once visited my Hu family, perhaps I might consider sparing the other mbers of your Xiao clan!"
Hu Ying'er was no longer the fragile girl she used to be, perhaps influenced by another side of her personality. At this mont, a gleam flashed in her eyes as she spoke, evoking anger yet amusent among many Xiao family mbers.
This was the Xiao family headquarters, with two Heavenly Rank experts present. How dare a re peak Earth Bending Realm girl be so arrogant?
Even those watching from afar felt Hu Ying'er was overestimating herself. So secretly mocked her for being foolish enough to provoke the Xiao family headquarters, practically courting disaster.
"Kill her!"
Seeing her attitude, Xiao Family Patriarch Xiao Zhenting finally spoke for the first ti. Hearing his words, Great Elder Xiao Changlin stepped forward to take action himself.
Knowing the opponent was a peak Earth Bending Realm expert, Xiao Changlin realized the other Xiao family elders might not have confidence in handling her. To avoid complications, it was safer for him, a Heavenly Rank expert, to deal with it personally.
However, Xiao Changlin did not see the hint of mockery and disdain flashing in the girl's eyes as he stepped forward.
"Die!"
Xiao Changlin would not exchange pleasantries with this killer of countless Xiao family mbers. Stepping forward, he directly unleashed his formidable ridian Qi, the power of an early-stage Floating Life Realm expert erupting, causing many cultivators watching from afar to change expressions.
"That girl is in danger!"
A late-stage Earth Bending Realm expert from Sky Thunder Valley spoke darkly, knowing the fundantal difference between Heavenly Rank and Earth Rank Third Realms. Even a half-step Heavenly Rank was not truly a match for an early-stage Floating Life expert.
Nearly everyone thought this way, except for a few keen individuals who wondered why Hu Ying'er seed so foolish, knowingly rushing into danger against a Heavenly Rank expert. Wasn't this a trap?
With these varied thoughts, Xiao Changlin's figure was already inches away from Hu Ying'er, his fingers like blades aiming sharply at the girl's throat, attacking with extre ruthlessness.
In his view, even without using ridian Qi to crush her, this peak Earth Bending Realm girl couldn't possibly withstand a single round against him, ending the battle with this move.
"Hmm?"
However, at this mont, everyone clearly saw the girl's right hand move slightly, suddenly raising to catch Xiao Changlin's index and middle fingers within her grasp, seemingly with a slight movent.
Crack!
A light sound echoed, and to everyone's wide-eyed disbelief, Xiao Changlin's right-hand index and middle fingers broke, bending strangely backward, obviously snapped by Hu Ying'er's fingers.
"Impossible!"
This scene led everyone to internally scream these four words, as it didn't exist within their imagination.
How could a peak Earth Bending Realm girl so easily snap the fingers of an early-stage Heavenly Rank Floating Life expert?
"No, she's no longer at peak Earth Bending Realm!"
Only so ridian Refining Masters with powerful Soul sensing realized her true cultivation after an instant of shock, involuntarily gasping.
"Early-stage Floating Life! She's been hiding her strength all along!"
With the reminder from the Soul expert, everyone reacted, and upon sensing the aura emanating from Hu Ying'er, their faces changed dramatically, unwilling to believe their eyes.
"Changlin, watch out!"
Amidst the stunned audience, including the Xiao family mbers, Xiao Family Patriarch Xiao Zhenting suddenly shouted. However, his warning ca a bit too late.
Swish!
Hu Ying'er suddenly extended her other hand, mirroring Xiao Changlin's previous action, striking toward the Xiao family Great Elder's throat danger.
But this ti, Xiao Changlin would not have the sa luck as Hu Ying'er did.
