Xiao Qing stayed up in the mountains for quite a long ti.
During this ti, he was afraid the Xiao Family would find him, so he didn’t dare co down.
He and his brother Xiao Yuan stayed in a cave, training every day.
The cultivation technique he obtained was truly powerful; the speed of training was especially fast, and the spells recorded on it were much stronger than those Xiao Qing had learned before. One could say that learning this cultivation technique allowed challenges beyond one’s level.
Xiao Qing’s cultivation soared like a rocket.
He soon broke through to the Foundation Establishnt stage, and then continued training all the way to the Foundation Establishnt Stage Tenth Level. Xiao Qing feared that training too quickly would lead to an unstable foundation, so he didn’t dare continue.
It’s said that Xiao Yuan could also train, but Xiao Qing wasn’t sure at what level his cultivation was.
Anyway, Xiao Qing felt Xiao Yuan’s cultivation wasn’t as profound as his own. Moreover, Xiao Yuan didn’t appear strong; on the contrary, he seed weaker the more he trained.
Xiao Qing advised Xiao Yuan to stop training, but Xiao Yuan didn’t listen to him, and there wasn’t much he could do. To protect his brother, he had to crazily practice various spells. At the sa ti, he sohow acquired alchemy skills and would occasionally refine so elixirs.
Until Xiao Qing felt his strength was sufficient, he brought Xiao Yuan down the mountain.
The first thing the brothers did when they ca down the mountain was to go to the Xiao Family to find Xiao He.
Back then, when their parents passed away, Xiao He greedily took over their inheritance and drove the brothers out of the Xiao Family.
This ti, Xiao Qing ca seeking vengeance against Xiao He.
Xiao Qing didn’t hold back; he wasn’t one to be secretive.
He brought Xiao Yuan to the Xiao Family’s gate and kicked it open with a single blow.
"Xiao He, get out here!"
The house servants of the Xiao Family and several of the branches heard the commotion and ca running out.
When they saw it was Xiao Qing and Xiao Yuan, those branches sneered, saying, "Who did I think it was? Turns out it’s you two. What? Couldn’t hide at the mountain any longer, decided to co out?"
Xiao Qing, with a stern face, stepped forward and punched each one, scattering those branches like flies.
The guards of the Xiao Family approached, and Xiao Qing waved his hand, unleashing Gold Elent spells, sending countless steel needles shooting at those guards.
"Animals."
With an angry shout, Xiao He rushed out with his n.
He waved his hand to raise an earth shield, trying to block Xiao Qing’s steel needles.
Xiao He was confident he could take down Xiao Qing.
After all, how old was Xiao Qing anyway? Plus, his Spirit Root had been destroyed previously, rendering him unable to cultivate. How deep could his cultivation be after just a few days of retraining?
And yet, Xiao He, who was at Foundation Establishnt Stage Eighth Level, couldn’t withstand Xiao Qing’s techniques; the earth shield he raised instantly vanished, while Xiao Qing’s steel needles struck those guards, leaving a scene full of wailing in the Xiao Family courtyard.
"You..."
Xiao He was both furious and terrified, his face turning purplish-red.
Xiao Qing coldly smiled, "You seized the position of family head, robbed my family’s inheritance, drove my brother and out; all these I can let pass. But what about my mother’s dowry? By tradition, the dowry of the housekeeper should not belong to the family—it truly belongs to us brothers. Now... Xiao He, listen to , return my mother’s dowry imdiately."
He clasped his hands together and, when he separated them, Xiao He saw countless sharp knives flashing in Xiao Qing’s palm.
Those sharp knives were clearly waiting to claim his life.
Normally, if Xiao Qing had gotten stronger, he would demand his mother’s dowry back, and Xiao He would have to return it.
But things are different now; those things are gone.
Xiao He’s acceptance of Xiao Rong’s inheritance was stolen overnight by God knows what despicable thing, leaving him with nothing to give back to Xiao Qing.
Of course, he wouldn’t tell Xiao Qing this.
How could he say?
Your mother’s dowry was stolen?
Would Xiao Qing likely believe it?
It wouldn’t just fail to satisfy Xiao Qing but would instead make the Xiao Family a laughingstock.
"What dowry? It doesn’t exist."
Xiao He replied to Xiao Qing with particular forcefulness.
Xiao Qing’s eyes flashed red with anger, a fury swirling in his heart. He shouted loudly, and those sharp knives in his hands glead brightly, thrusting toward Xiao He.
Xiao He dodged left and right, but he still got hit with one knife.
Enraged and embarrassed, he used Fire Magic to try and burn Xiao Qing.
"What now, planning to burn soone to death?"
A cheerful voice ca, and a gush of clear water doused the fire Xiao He had conjured.
Xiao He looked towards the voice and saw an indescribably beautiful woman standing beside Xiao Qing.
This woman was soone he knew, the Second Miss of the Zhu Family.
"Miss Zhu Er cos ddling in other people’s business?"
Xiao He was even more infuriated.
Anning nodded, "Indeed, I have to intervene in this matter. After all, Brother Xiao has been engaged to my sister for many years. Whatever the connection, he is my forr brother-in-law. With the fire of kinship present, how could I turn a blind eye?"
"I see, you shalessly attach yourself to Xiao Qing."
Xiao He spoke without restraint in his fury.
Before he could finish, Xiao Yuan’s expression changed slightly. He took a few steps forward and was about to speak when he coughed a few tis, "Bastard, brother, hit him."
Naturally, Xiao Qing wouldn’t tolerate Xiao He slandering Anning.
He stepped forward and promptly slapped Xiao He’s face several tis.
Anning was even more ruthless; while Xiao Qing slapped, Anning walked over and kicked Xiao He several tis.
The two juniors hitting and kicking him nearly drove Xiao He to a death of rage.
Xiao Qing used an immobilization spell to freeze Xiao He in place, then stabbed him with hundreds of steel needles, turning Xiao He into a hedgehog.
"Hand over my mother’s dowry right now, or else..."
Xiao He, his eyes red with fury, said, "It doesn’t exist; I already said it doesn’t exist."
Xiao Qing was prepared to strike Xiao He’s top of the head when he heard a loud shout, "Stop."
Just as the word "stop" entered everyone’s ears, a handso and unmatched man in flowing white clothes appeared by Xiao He’s side.
He wore a breezy white gown, his hair fixed with a jade crown, carrying twin swords on his back. Standing by Xiao He, he appeared even more graceful and unmatched in the world.
With anger in his eyes, he looked at Xiao Qing, "What is it you do?"
Xiao Qing coldly smiled, "What am I doing? I’m rely demanding the return of my mother’s dowry."
Xiao Qing examined the man, took quite a long ti, and then said, "Are you Lang Qingyu?"
The man nodded, "Indeed."
Lang Qingyu was a very renowned cultivator on Dongling Continent.
He was a Loose Cultivator; no one knows when he appeared on Dongling Continent or what his origins were.
When he first appeared, he already had Foundation Establishnt Stage cultivation, and afterwards, he challenged others beyond his level in countless contests with various talented individuals. Now his cultivation was profound, and many guessed he had long since beco a Golden Core Master.
"You intend to ddle in the Xiao Family’s affairs?"
Xiao Yuan also stepped forward at this mont, discreetly observing Lang Qingyu.
Although Lang Qingyu seed to be speaking to the Xiao brothers, his eyes were fixed on Anning.
"I am friends with Brother Xiao; I cannot stand by idly while he is humiliated by juniors."
