Family Cultivation: My entire family are Villains

"Thank you, Ancestor!"

Hou Yuxiao respectfully saluted Wei Xuheng, then turned around to look at Jin and Guang Nuyuan. Seeing the hatred still overflowing from their eyes toward him, he slightly shook his head.

These two had completely lost control of their emotions...

At this time, when the rulers of the Four Holy Lands were harboring thoughts of destroying Leiyin Temple, the two dared to blatantly attack him, it was simply courting death.

The Seven-Star Precious Sword evolved from Wei Xuheng's purple aura had instantly taken the lives of seven mighty beings at the breaking realm. While Jin and Guang hadn't died, their energy was severely depleted. Notably, their eyes remained fixed on Hou Yuxiao without moving away.

The one doing the killing was clearly Wei Xuheng, so what's the point of staring at me?

Hou Yuxiao, of course, knew the reason.

This time, Shi Tian was forced out, well ahead of schedule, drawing out the rulers of the Four Holy Lands. Indeed, it was inseparable from Hexi.

"Shi Tian, are you going to keep hiding in your turtle shell?"

The one speaking this time was not Wei Xuheng, but Jing Yuanxiu.

Even though Jing Yuanxiu's voice was old, it carried a sharpness that was as piercing as his long, sword-like body, inducing a feeling of unease in those who heard it.

As his words fell, he reached out, overstepping authority to directly pull Jin and Guang before him, then turned to look at Shi Tian, the threat in his eyes extremely evident.

Jing Yuanxiu's meaning was obvious: if Shi Tian continued to hide, the lives of these two World-Honored Ones would be forfeited.

As the Zen Sound Array continued, Shi Tian, hearing Jing Yuanxiu's words, turned his head to look at Jin and Guang, a trace of sorrow appearing on his face. Looking at Jing Yuanxiu, he wore a slightly dejected expression and said:

"You want me, why involve them?"

"We want more than just you. The downfall of Leiyin Temple is already inevitable today. Not to mention three hours, even if we gave you three days, you wouldn't be able to change anything. Come out now, and I can spare your two disciples. Otherwise, let them descend to the Yellow Springs first, to pave the way for you, their master!"

This was the first time Hou Yuxiao learned that Jin and Guang were disciples of Shi Tian. He was about to turn around to see Shi Tian's reaction, but before he could, Jing Yuanxiu had already taken action.

Jing Yuanxiu merely turned his head slightly, eyes fixating on Jin and Guang, from whose pupils two strands of piercing Sword Qi suddenly shot out. That Sword Qi, though as thin as needles, seemed harmless. Yet, the moment it left the pupils, it simply vanished.

Vanished?

The next second, Jin and Guang, who were held captive, suddenly had their heads violently jerked back as if struck by some heavy force.

Two pinhole-sized red dots suddenly appeared on their foreheads, from which bright red blood slowly trickled. Their previously powerful auras deflated like punctured balloons, quickly withering away. At the same time, their vitality abruptly ceased.

...

With just a gaze, two Sub-Saints of Martial Dao were gone!

A chill ran through Hou Yuxiao's heart. It wasn't from fear, but because Jing Yuanxiu's move reminded him of someone.

Gu Chenfeng

If he remembered correctly, Gu Chenfeng's Sword Heart Sacred Pupil was almost identical to Jing Yuanxiu's move. Jing Yuanxiu was the master of the Wanjian Holy Sect, and Gu Chenfeng had died at his hands back then.

So, it seemed, Jing Yuanxiu had a grudge against him.

...

Seeing his two disciples' deaths, Shi Tian's already hunched body slumped further. Even though, with the Zen Sound Array, his aura still felt unbreakable, the overall decline was starkly apparent.

"Shi Tian is determined not to come out. You three, break the array!"

Jing Yuanxiu's words left Hou Yuxiao momentarily stunned.

A sixth-level array, can it be broken?

He quickly turned his head, puzzled, to look at Hou Yuduan beside him, only to find him equally confused and perplexed.

"A sixth-level array is already equivalent to the strength of a Martial Dao Saint. According to the Xuantian Secret Record, any array ranked sixth cannot be broken by anyone under the heavens, no matter how many Martial Dao Saints are present!"

Hearing Hou Yuduan's transmission, Hou Yuxiao's expression became slightly grave. After a moment's thought, he immediately had an answer in his heart and asked via voice transmission: "Who authored the Xuantian Secret Record?"

"The former National Teacher of the Great Yu Dynasty, the world's first Mystic Realm Master, Mo Yunzi."

"First in the world, still now?"

Hou Yuduan was stunned, then his expression changed.

"Mo Yunzi may have been formidable, but he was someone from thousands of years ago. The current world's first Mystic Realm Master is not him!"

"Big brother, are you implying the National Teacher of Great Jin, Zhuge Yuan?"

...

In mid-air, Xun Mu, Meng Qu, and Wei Xuheng nodded simultaneously upon hearing Jing Yuanxiu's words. The four of them simultaneously opened their palms, and four Spirit Swords—white, blue, yellow, and red—suddenly appeared in their grasps.

The moment those four Spirit Swords appeared, the millions of restrictive golden threads across the sky over Jianye Prefecture City paused momentarily. An all-consuming power emanated from the Spirit Swords, instantly capturing everyone's attention.

"The Four Spirits Law-Breaking Sword of Zhuge Yuan, so this is how it is. I should have known earlier, Leiyin Temple's defeat this time was not in vain..."

Seeing the four Spirit Swords, Shi Tian's voice seeped with intense unwillingness and despair, while his aura instantly withered to the extreme.

Jing Yuanxiu and the others didn't utter any superfluous words. They simultaneously threw the Spirit Swords in their hands toward the sky over Jianye Prefecture City, with the white, blue, yellow, and red Spirit Swords leaving trails of diverse sword auras in the air. They then raced towards the millions of restrictive golden threads of the Zen Sound Array.
