Son-in-law Heaven Emperor Xiao Yi

"You lost!"

Xiao Yi grasped Xue Mantian's throat with one hand, lifting him to face himself, his expression void of emotion as he spoke.

The purple-gold lightning spear above Xue Mantian's shoulder had vanished, but blood continued to gush profusely from the gaping wound.

His pale face was filled with intense shock and disbelief.

Staring fixedly at Xiao Yi.

In his eyes, there was also a hint of sudden realization and confusion.

Once upon a time...

Back in the Tianqing Kingdom, Xiao Yi was as insignificant as an ant in his presence, not even capable of resisting. But now, in just a little over a year, Xiao Yi had risen to heights he could only look up to.

Pu!

Xue Mantian's mouth uncontrollably spewed out a mouthful of fresh blood, his eyes crimson as he stared at Xiao Yi, "I, I never imagined that in just a short year, you could become so strong. However, if you dare to kill me, Xue Yilou will never let you off!"

Xue Yilou, the most formidable assassination organization of the Great Qian Dynasty.

Behind it stood a weighty figure of the Great Qian Dynasty.

Within the vast ranks of Xue Yilou, even Xue Mantian, who was just the ninth floor's master, had already reached the fourth level of the Dharma Manifestation Realm.

This meant that there were at least eight others stronger than him.

It was unquestionably a force that could not be ignored.

However...

Xiao Yi, with an expressionless face, said indifferently, "Xue Yilou? If they don't provoke me, then fine, but if they dare... I'll kill them one by one, a pair for every pair that comes..."

Overbearing, confident.

In this moment, Xiao Yi exuded a disdainful coldness that overlooked everything under the heavens.

"Xue Mantian, let me send you on your final journey!"

Xiao Yi's hand suddenly exerted force.

Ka-chak!

Xue Mantian's head tilted to the side, life extinguished completely.

At the same time.

Shadow Demon and the others had also dealt with Zhang Ling and Shu He, as well as the hundreds of strong individuals from various powers.

Bodies drifted in the sea water, fresh red blood saturating the surrounding area.

Moving with the waves.

Stirring up waves of crimson foam.

Not far away...

Some beasts eyed them greedily, just waiting for Xiao Yi and his group to leave so they could launch a fierce attack to contest the corpses floating in the water.

Xiao Yi stepped onto the deck.

All the powerhouses on the ship shivered, looking at him with awe on their faces.

Xiao Yi looked at the ship's master and said indifferently, "Gather up all these bodies!"

"Yes!"

The ship's master, not daring to disobey, immediately sent men to begin collecting the corpses.

An hour later.

All the bodies had been retrieved, the ship's master looked at Xiao Yi uneasily, "Sir, some of the bodies were too fragmented, we could only find some pieces, the rest have been collected!"

Xiao Yi raised an eyebrow, noticing that many of the bodies on the deck were missing arms and legs.

Zhang Ling touched his nose, his expression awkward, "Xiao, I'm really sorry, I just couldn't hold it any longer!"

Zhang Ling had achieved a hundred victories in the Slave Battlefield ten years ago, and after that, he was imprisoned by Sha Kun and spent the last decade in a dark and sunless dungeon.

Now that he was free, he had finally encountered a fight where he could go all out without any restraint.

Naturally, he had to vent thoroughly.

Xiao Yi rolled his eyes and waved his hand, "It's fine, just remember to be more measured next time!"

Too much bloodshed is not good!

Zhang Ling nodded, "Don't worry, in the future, I'll try to leave them intact!"

*Thump*

The ship's master's legs went weak, nearly kneeling on the ground.

What the hell!

What kind of people are these?

Being more measured means leaving a whole corpse?

The ship's master's head was practically buried in his chest; he dared not lift his eyes to look at these fearsome and threatening figures!

Xiao Yi glanced at him and ordered, "Tie all these corpses to that small boat; we ourselves will pilot the small boat back!"

"Ah?"

The captain was taken aback.

He had thought that Xiao Yi would ask them to take the small boat and the bodies back, and he was worried about being implicated. To his surprise, Xiao Yi volunteered this request, leaving the captain utterly grateful; he knelt on the ground and said, "Thank you, sir, for your mercy!"

"This matter has nothing to do with you; there is no need for such actions!"

Xiao Yi waved his hand dismissively.

Then, the group took the bodies of Xue Mantian and the others to the small boat, hanging them around the small ship before sailing towards Linhai City.

That vast ship, however, followed far behind.

Half a day later.

Linhai City appeared in their sight.

Shu He steered the boat mightily towards Linhai City.

Linhai is the only port of the Great Qian Dynasty that leads into Beast Emperor City. Countless ships come and go every day; among them are gigantic ships thousands of meters in length.

Their thousand-meter-long small ship was unremarkable in the port of Linhai City.

But now...

As soon as Xiao Yi's ship appeared, it caused a sensation.

This sensation spread through the entire Linhai City harbor like a plague: "Look over there, why is that ship tied with so many bodies?"

"Wait, I recognize that person; he is a strong warrior from Three Seas Mountain!"

"That is the Taoist robe of Wendao Villa..."

"Is that person tied at the bow wearing clothes from Xue Yilou? Isn't that Xue Mantian, the ninth master of Xue Yilou? My heavens, how could he also be dead?"

The entire dock was boiling over with excitement.

Astonishment and terror were written all over the faces of countless powerhouses as they looked at each other.

Fearing they were caught in an illusion.

Clang clang clang!

Amidst the sound of clashing metal, a troop of over a thousand people surged into the dock - it was Linhai City's enforcement military.

Leading them was none other than the city lord of Linhai City, the second-ranked General Li Bin.

Li Bin was clad in silver battle armor and riding a Sea Dragon Horse, his eyes filled with gravity. He had only received news of a ship full of corpses entering Linhai City and had immediately come with the enforcement soldiers.

Not until he saw with his own eyes this little ship teeming with severed heads did Li feel a chill engulfing his body.

The situation has blown up!

That was Li Bin's first reaction.

He recognized not only Xue Mantian but also Ge Ruoyi.

The hundreds of corpses on this ship included powerhouses from Three Seas Mountain, Wendao Villa, the Nangong Family, the Beitang Family, and Xue Yilou!

Which one of them was easy to provoke?

Rumble!

The small ship docked at the shore.

A group of figures walked out from the cabin, with Xiao Yi at the forefront, followed closely by the Shadow Demon, Fu Yuan, Zhang Ling, and Shu He. Then came Along and the other ninety-eight Tao Tribulation Realm powerhouses.

Hiss!

The appearance of these hundred-plus people, four Dharma Manifestation Realm, and over a hundred Tao Tribulation Realm, seemed to calm the turbulent waters of the harbor.

Everyone held their breath, not daring to make a sound.

Sweat poured down Li Bin's forehead; he too was at the Tao Tribulation Realm Peak, but among this group, there were more than a dozen whose aura was no less than his.

Especially the Shadow Demon and the other three, each of them was unfathomable to him.

Gulp!

Li Bin desperately swallowed, his previous assertive aura completely doused. He stepped forward and said, "City Lord Li Bin of Linhai bids welcome to all the distinguished guests!"

"City Lord Li!"

Xiao Yi nodded and said, "I am Xiao Yi!"

"Xiao Yi?"

Li Bin was taken aback, his pupils suddenly narrowing, "You, you are Xiao, the head of Xiaoshanhe Institute?"

Xiao Yi hummed affirmatively, then pointing to the corpses of Xue Mantian and others, he spoke indifferently, "These people attacked me and have all been executed. You need not trouble yourself, City Lord Li!"

"This..."

Li Bin hesitated. Xiao Yi's reputation was indeed not weak, but it still didn't compare to the intimidating power of Xue Yilou, the Nangong Family, and the Beitang Family. In a grave voice, Li Bin said, "Director Xiao, this is a matter of great importance. You say they attacked you, do you have any evidence?"

Xiao Yi narrowed his eyes as he scanned Li Bin.

The Shadow Demon and the others behind him also turned their gaze towards Li Bin.

Thud!

Li Bin trembled all over, feeling as if he had fallen into an ice cellar, with darkness, despair, and bone-chilling cold enshrouding him.

He only heard Xiao Yi's icy voice ringing in his ears, "My word is the evidence!"
