"Qi Seeking Realm Late Stage, not bad!"
Upon opening his eyes, Yun Xiao exhaled a breath of foul air, which even seed to contain a faint hint of silver lightning, but it quickly disappeared into the air around him.
"Let's check the Thunder Attribute Ancestor Vein!"
After feeling his own ridian Qi Energy, Yun Xiao's attention instantly shifted to his Thunderbolt Ancestral Vein. At the thought, countless currents of ridian Qi concentrated beneath the skin of his back and shoulders.
Huff… Huff…
As this ridian Qi Energy gathered in the Thunder Attribute Ancestor Vein, Yun Xiao felt an unbearable itching on his back, as if sothing was trying to burrow out from inside his body.
"Is it Thunder Wings?"
Despite the intense itching, a look of extre joy appeared on Yun Xiao's face because he knew the sensation was the Thunder Wings about to reveal themselves.
If soone were standing behind Yun Xiao at this mont, they would notice thin lines of electricity erging from the back of his clothing, forming two discrete and sowhat ethereal wings.
Puff!
Just as Yun Xiao attempted to gather more internal ridian Qi to fully manifest the Thunder Wings, the nascent Thunder Wings on both sides suddenly dissipated with a puff.
"It seems I still lack enough Thunder Power!"
Sensing the dissipation of the Thunder Wings behind him, Yun Xiao couldn't help but sigh. He clearly understood that it wasn't a lack of ridian Qi that prevented the Thunder Wings from stabilizing, but rather an insufficiency in the Thunder Attribute itself.
With Yun Xiao's Qi Seeking Realm Late Stage ridian Qi Cultivation, it was obviously impossible for him to fly. All along, it would take the Thunder Power inside the Thunder Attribute Ancestor Vein to bolster him; his ridian Qi served rely as an assisting force for activation.
"If I want more Thunder Power, in the short term, perhaps there is only one way!"
After wallowing montarily in frustration, Yun Xiao did not dwell on it. A figure he had previously dealt with flashed in his mind, and he chuckled lightly: "Family Head Yang, Princely Heir, you never expected that I, Yun Xiao, would co to settle the score with you so soon, did you?"
A few days ago, when Yun Xiao made a harrowing escape from the platform in Ancient Moon City, he had boldly proclaid his intent to seek revenge on the Yang Family for the humiliation he suffered. However, given the events of the past few days, everyone assud that his threats were re bravado.
In the recent days, the Yang Family's powerful guards continued to search throughout Ancient Moon City. Despite this, the youth known as Yun Xiao had not shown even a trace of himself.
Therefore, everyone believed that Yun Xiao had fled Ancient Moon City and perhaps even the surrounding area. However, it goes without saying that even though Yun Xiao had shocked everyone, with only a Middle Stage Qi Seeking Realm Cultivation, he was still no match for the Yang Family Head Yang Dingshan.
As such, it would be utterly reckless for Yun Xiao to actively seek trouble with the Yang Family, as it could lead him into a hopeless situation. The Yang Family headquarters was no ordinary arena, and it was probably rigged with traps like a Heaven and Earth Net.
Yet, what no one realized was that the youth nad Yun Xiao was no ordinary person, and the impossible, in their eyes, might shortly beco reality.
......
Ancient Moon East City!
This was where the headquarters of the Yang Family was located. They had been operating here for a long ti; even after exterminating the Hu Family to beco the dominant force in Ancient Moon City, they had still not moved their headquarters to the center, perhaps for their own special reasons.
Inside a grand hall of the Yang Family headquarters, a number of figures were either seated or standing, and if Yun Xiao were here, he might recognize the person seated at the head of the room as Yang Family Head Yang Dingshan.
The ones seated below, naturally, were the Yang Family Elders led by Yang Qiwu. However, including Yang Dingshan, the facial expressions of everyone looked sour, clearly troubled by so matter.
"Have we still not found that bastard nad Yun Xiao?"
After a long silence, as the atmosphere in the hall nearly froze over, Yang Dingshan at the head finally spoke up, his voice laced with suppressed rage.
"Family Head, based on our estimates, that bastard has probably already fled Ancient Moon City with his tail between his legs. Our Yang Family's influence in adjacent cities may not be..."
At this mont, perhaps only the Great Elder Yang Qiwu had a certain degree of authority to speak, but even so, he was quite cautious, aware that the Family Head was on edge, and one wrong word might provoke a torrent of rebuke.
"A bunch of useless trash!"
As expected, despite Yang Qiwu speaking logically, the infuriated Yang Dingshan still lashed out with rebuke, leaving the Elders too intimidated to respond. After all, who would dare to talk back to the Family Head, especially one who was an Origin Seeking Realm Early Stage powerhouse?
"Continue searching for . Qiwu, prepare so generous gifts and take them to the leading families of the surrounding cities on my behalf. That bastard dared to cripple my only son; I won't let him get away with it!"
Yun Xiao, having cald his anger slightly, also knew that if Yun Xiao escaped from Ancient Moon City, it might not be so easy to catch him. Therefore, he could only take the next best step and try a desperate thod.
Yang Family might dominate Ancient Moon City, but once outside of it, a Yang Family that only has a cultivator at the Origin Seeking Realm Early Stage is nothing at all. Far stronger families abound compared to Yang Family.
"Family Head, perhaps we can seek help from the Spirit Fighting Branch in Yuyang City."
Yang Qiwu responded respectfully first, then imdiately voiced his own idea. As a Great Elder of the Yang Family, he certainly knew who the family's biggest backer was. It was also because of this backer that they were able to annihilate the Hu Family easily and beco the ruler of Ancient Moon City.
"Aren't you ashad enough?"
Just as Yang Qiwu's words fell, Yang Dingshan's sinister gaze turned to him, and the words he spoke made the forr shudder, realizing the Family Head's aning in an instant.
To be honest, this was indeed a very embarrassing event for Yang Family. And if a re mid-stage Qi Seeking expert was needed to request help from the Spirit Fighting Branch in Yuyang City, wouldn't that make Yang Family look utterly incompetent?
Therefore, Yang Dingshan wouldn't seek help from his backer unless it was a last resort. What he didn't know was that the person in power behind him has a deep connection with the one who crippled his son's Dantian.
Imdiately, everyone discussed so details, and one by one the Elders left, dispersing in different directions, leaving only Yang Dingshan, the Tomb Master of the Yang Family, sitting solemnly in the great hall, with a gloomy face, lost in thought.
The Yang Family's headquarters was huge, with each of the Great Elders having their own independent courtyard. One of the Elders nad Yang Zhengfang had only walked a few dozen yards towards his own courtyard when he suddenly felt a darkness flash before his eyes and then a chill at his throat, leaving him montarily bewildered.
Right then, Yang Zhengfang's figure suddenly froze, causing the other Yang Family Elders walking in different directions to pause in surprise. As they turned their heads, they were t with an unthinkable scene.
Bang!
The previously paralyzed Yang Zhengfang's face now showed an expression of extre horror, and then his head was sent soaring into the sky by the blood gushing from his neck, a ghastly sight.
At this mont, Yang Zhengfang's head rocketed to a height of several yards, and the blood from his neck spurted like a fountain, shocking the other Yang Family Elders.
One should know that this Elder nad Yang Zhengfang, although not the most top-ranking among the Yang Family Elders, was also a power who had reached the Late Stage of the Qi Seeking Realm, a standard for becoming a Yang Family Elder.
Yet such a late-stage Qi Seeking practitioner had his head severed in an instant. What level of strength must the enemy possess? Perhaps only the Family Head, at Origin Seeking Realm Early Stage, could accomplish such a feat with such ease?
"What has happened?"
While the Yang Family Elders were still in shock, a breeze stirred beside them, followed by a low voice — it was Yang Dingshan, the Yang Family Head.
Thump!
However, after asking, Yang Dingshan no longer needed an answer, as Yang Zhengfang's head that had been sent flying finally fell to the ground, followed by his headless body collapsing due to lost strength. The blood from his neck continued to spray, staining the ground red.
"Haha, Family Head Yang and the Elders, do you still rember what Star said that day?"
Just as Yang Dingshan and the many Elders were stunned, a hearty voice suddenly sounded from sowhere, and then they saw a dark light speeding towards that place.
"Star?!"
The self-announcent of the newcor made Yang Dingshan and the others instantly understand and also recall the proud and bold words Star had left that day. They had never expected them to co true so soon.
Just now, everyone in Yang Family was analyzing that it was impossible for Star to stay in Ancient Moon City, let alone dare to co to the Yang Family's headquarters. They didn't expect to be so swiftly proven wrong.
"You little bastard, since you've co don't even think about leaving!"
Yang Dingshan had the quickest reaction. From the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a familiar figure and imdiately moved, reaching the spot where the figure was. He raised his hand for a palm strike, slashing down without hesitation, with an astonishing montum.
"Hmm?"
But when Yang Dingshan's palm struck down, there was no feeling of hitting flesh and blood, and he knew once again he had been tricked by Star; it was clearly another realistic afterimage.
Although Yang Dingshan, who had been deceived once before, was already on his guard, the death of Yang Fangzheng, combined with the agitation from the provocative words he just heard, and the cover of night, led him to be calculated against once more.
"Not good!"
As Yang Dingshan dispersed the false image with a palm strike, his gaze suddenly shifted to a certain direction. There, exactly where his beloved and only son's quarters were, he seed to see through the heavy night a familiar figure appearing in that courtyard.
