Nine Dragons Saint Ancestor

"The left arm is broken too!"

Among the distant spectators, someone gently shook their head, silently noting that Fei Qingchen’s final struggle also ended abruptly under the slash of the wooden sword.

With both arms lost, Fei Qingchen could only be at Nangong Xiaofeng’s mercy. Amidst his terrified gaze, the latter’s fist had already slammed fiercely into his chest.

Crack!

Nangong Xiaofeng’s punch was delivered in anger, with Yun Xiao paving the way for him, so he didn’t hold back at all. This punch broke several of Fei Qingchen’s chest bones.

One of these chest bones pierced directly into Fei Qingchen’s heart. Even if a Holy Rank Peak Meridian Refining Master appeared in time, it would be impossible to save his life.

"I... aah..."

With his heart pierced, Fei Qingchen’s face was full of venom as he tried to say something, but the blood gushing from his throat choked his words.

Those broken chest bones not only pierced Fei Qingchen’s heart but also punctured his lungs. No one knew what he wanted to say in the end; those things would follow him to the ground.

Fei Qingchen’s helpless corpse plummeted downwards, as expected by Yun Xiao, the golden rays showed no reaction to the already dead man.

Bang!

The sound of Fei Qingchen’s body hitting the ground seemed to strike each observer’s heart, silencing them in fear of provoking the rough-clothed young man’s wrath.

Some even instinctively withdrew a distance, unsure if the terrifying and ruthless youth might kill them all to silence witnesses.

After all, Yun Xiao had just killed an Inspector from the Emperor Canglong Palace and a Chief from Yongxiu City Emperor Palace, which had indeed deeply offended the Emperor Canglong Palace.

To prevent the secret of killing the Emperor Canglong Palace cultivators from leaking, it wouldn’t be impossible for him to slaughter all the hundreds or thousands present.

Yet, these people didn’t understand Yun Xiao. Although he is decisive in killing, he never harms the innocent. If Li Xuefu and Mu Qingyi hadn’t initiated the attack, Yun Xiao might not have acted against them.

As for the ordinary cultivators watching, Yun Xiao is not a bloodthirsty person, and he knows this monumental act he’s undertaken won’t be concealed, even if everyone here were killed.

"Eh? Where is Yue Man Building?"

Just as Yun Xiao turned his head, a voice suddenly called out, belonging to Nangong Xiaofeng, who evidently prioritized the Dark Assassination genius more than Yun Xiao.

Although Nangong Xiaofeng was suppressed by Fei Qingchen before, he was aware there were two geniuses in Dark Assassination. Now, with Mu Qingyi’s remains gone and Yue Man Building mysteriously vanished, he was undoubtedly perplexed.

"Just a defeated foe who slipped through the cracks, let him go!"

Upon hearing Nangong Xiaofeng’s exclamation, Yun Xiao waved him off. Even though he had restrained the Ancestor Vein Power, he couldn’t be bothered by a Dark Assassination genius of the Heavenly Realm Middle Stage.

Moreover, Yun Xiao comprehended Dark Assassination’s stealth and disguise techniques, making it hard to tell when Yue Man Building left or what disguise he might be using, spending more time tracking him down would be futile.

"Xiaofeng, do you sense anything?"

No longer concerned with Yue Man Building, Yun Xiao pointed to the strange place below, his question causing Nangong Xiaofeng’s heart to stir.

"I can feel some aura below, it’s slightly connected to my bloodline, and..."

Nangong Xiaofeng sensed for a few more moments, then nodded, speaking as he ran his hand along his waist, a golden-glowing pearl manifesting in his palm.

Clearly, it was the Gong Jinzhu Yun Xiao had seen before, a treasure handed down in the Nangong Family, appearing even more radiant than when last observed.

"If my sensing hasn’t failed, there’s something underground summoning the Gong Jinzhu, perhaps it’s the Nangong Family’s Secret Treasure!"

At this moment, Nangong Xiaofeng was somewhat excited. Initially thinking that even finding the secret treasure’s location, due to leaked information, he might not be able to obtain the Nangong Family’s Secret Treasure inside. Now he had nothing to worry about.

Because Nangong Xiaofeng had met the demon Yun Xiao, whose earlier devastation of three Heavenly Realm Late Stage Experts, alongside the Heavenly Realm Middle Stage Fei Qingchen, suggested anyone coveting the Nangong Family’s Secret Treasure must reconsider.

However, when Nangong Xiaofeng spoke up about this, he still glanced around at the onlookers, knowing what these people had in mind. They definitely would not give up entirely on the Nangong Family’s Secret Treasure.

"Ignore them, they can’t enter the Nine Revolutions Golden Palace Array!"

Seemingly noticing a strange expression in Nangong Xiaofeng’s eyes, Yun Xiao smiled slightly, then extended his hand, pointing at the crowd. As soon as he uttered a certain name, Nangong Xiaofeng’s body involuntarily trembled.

"Nine Revolutions Golden Palace Array? Isn’t that the legendary Clan Protection Array of my Nangong Family?"

It seemed that Nangong Xiaofeng had heard of this array’s name before. At this moment, he was shocked that this was the Nangong Family’s Clan Protection Array and also astonished by how this young man named Yun Xiao knew about it, his expression was extremely vivid.

Although Nangong Xiaofeng’s parents fled from the headquarters in desperation back then and lived incognito ever since, the major events of the Nangong Family were still passed down, including the Clan Protection Array known as the Nine Revolutions Golden Palace Array.

"You are correct, but the Nine Revolutions Golden Palace Array here is somewhat different from the one at your Nangong Family headquarters!"

Yun Xiao did not bother to explain how he knew, and said, "Even some Holy Rank Advanced Array Masters couldn’t possibly have the slightest chance to break it. Because they do not possess the Nangong Family’s bloodline, nor do they have the Gong Jinzhu you hold!"

These two consecutive statements explained why Yun Xiao said those cultivators couldn’t enter, and upon hearing this, Nangong Xiaofeng’s heart surged with excitement because he possessed both conditions mentioned by Yun Xiao.

"Do you think it’s that simple to enter?"

Just as Nangong Xiaofeng’s excitement was rising, the plain-clothed youth poured cold water on him, calming him instantly and realizing things were not as simple as they seemed.

"Although you meet the two conditions for entering the Nine Revolutions Golden Palace Array, I mentioned earlier that it’s somewhat different from your former Clan Protection Array. Even with the Nangong Family’s bloodline and Gong Jinzhu, entering rashly would mean certain death!"

Yun Xiao did not keep things secretive; he pointed to some corpses below, causing Nangong Xiaofeng’s face to darken, and his earlier excitement subsided.

"What should we do then?"

At this moment, Nangong Xiaofeng evidently trusted Yun Xiao immensely and asked directly, believing that since this newly acquainted brother spoke so logically, perhaps there might be a solution.

"No guarantees, let’s give it a try!"

This time, Yun Xiao’s response was somewhat disappointing for Nangong Xiaofeng, as he had never seen such a lack of confidence in Yun Xiao.

Yun Xiao indeed was not confident, since this Nine Revolutions Golden Palace Array was slightly different from the one he had seen at the Nangong Family headquarters.

That was an array continuously enhanced by generations of Nangong Clan Leaders. Even though he was a Holy Rank Array Master, there were many things he did not fully understand.

Moreover, it had been a hundred years since the death of the Long Xiao Battle God, and Yun Xiao did not know the dangers of this altered Nine Revolutions Golden Palace Array, so he could only study it before making a decision.

"This is private property of the Nangong Family. There’s no place for you, disperse now!"

After conversing with Nangong Xiaofeng, Yun Xiao finally turned his attention to the onlookers, and upon saying this, many people’s expressions changed.

"Yun Xiao, we know you’re strong, but the Nangong Family was destroyed by Emperor Canglong Palace nearly a hundred years ago. Is there anything private left? The Secret Treasure here, even if you take the largest share, you should leave some for us, right?"

A middle-aged man at the Heavenly Realm Middle Stage, obviously unwilling to give up, was the first to step forward. Perhaps because Yun Xiao hadn’t taken immediate action earlier, he regained some courage.

This person was smart enough not to speak for himself alone but included everyone present. His last words were a compliment to Yun Xiao and carried a subtle threat.

After all, the Nangong Family was personally annihilated by the Empress of Canglong Palace, with the final explanation from Dragon Emperor Palace claiming that the Nangong Family was an accomplice of the Long Xiao Battle God plotting to betray humanity.

How credible this explanation was was open to interpretation, but it was well-known that Dragon Emperor Palace had been hunting the remnants of the Four Great Families for years.

Any cultivator finding remnants of the Nangong Family could report it to the Emperor Palace of the major cities, and if confirmed, they would receive a generous reward from the Emperor Palace.

At this moment, that middle-aged man spoke eloquently, hinting that although Yun Xiao killed the Inspector and Chief of Dragon Emperor Palace, protecting the Nangong Family would provoke Dragon Emperor Palace to an undying pursuit.

As this person’s words spread, many reluctant to leave slowly nodded, and some even voiced their support. With hundreds united, they did not believe the young man could do anything about them.

"Leave now, or die!"
