Son-in-law Heaven Emperor Xiao Yi

The next morning at dawn.

The corpses of Yan Yu and the other two were discovered.

In an instant.

Strong figures from the Royal Martial Arts Academy, the royal family, the Nine Profound Sect, Wan Fo Mountain, and Sword Mountain Manor all gathered here, led by none other than Ye Feng.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Eighth Layer of the Golden Elixir Realm, second on the Heavenly Qing Dragon and Tiger List and Teng Long List.

This person's strength was indeed overwhelming, even surpassing Jiang Tai.

In the younger generation of the Tianqing Kingdom, he was second only to Great Prince Jiang Shanhe. Not only did the Royal Martial Arts Academy look up to him, but the royal family's strong men were also under his control.

Monk Dao Yuan from the Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple joined his hands together, his face full of compassion for the world, but the words he spoke sent shivers down the spine, "Ling Xiao, Xiao Yi is extremely vicious and ruthless. Two days ago, he was no match for Yan Yu and the others, but now he has killed both Yan Yu brothers and Prince Jiang Yi. If we allow him to continue growing..."

Ye Feng examined the scene for a while and said in a deep voice, "Judging from the traces of the battle at the scene, Xiao Yi's strength is already no weaker than an ordinary practitioner at the Third Layer of the Golden Elixir Realm!"

Dizi Sword cradled his longsword, flicked his bangs lightly, and said in a deep voice, "When this person appeared at our Sword Mountain Manor's Sword Tomb, his cultivation was barely into the Shentong Realm. But in just a month or two, he has grown to his current level..."

"He must be eliminated!"

Everyone exchanged glances.

Ye Feng touched his hooked nose, his eyes a slit from which cold light emanated, and commanded in a deep voice, "Gather everyone. Search for Xiao Yi in groups of five. As soon as he is found, mark his location with a Thousand-Mile Tracking Talisman. We must get rid of him!"

"Yes!"

Everyone responded emphatically.

Within the crowd.

Ye Feng glanced at the three heads that died with their eyes open. With a wave of his hand, he crushed them into minced meat, his gaze icy to the extreme: "Xiao Yi? Hmph, no matter your background, if you cannot be of use to the Great Prince, then you have only one path left – death!"

......

In the marshlands.

Xiao Yi moved across the swamp as smoothly as drifting clouds and flowing water, his feet on flattened wooden boards, when suddenly, a piercing whooshing sound surrounded him.

"Amitabha, Xiao, please stop!" a loud Buddhist chant came through.

Dao Yuan appeared in front of him with four Golden Core Realm practitioners, and had even broken through to the Golden Elixir Realm himself.

Five Golden Core figures, one of them a topless monk at the Four Layer of the Golden Elixir Realm.

Xiao Yi narrowed his eyes as he stared at Dao Yuan, "So it's you. How did you find me?"

Dao Yuan pressed his palms together, reciting Buddhist scriptures with a smile, "Donor Xiao, you have a karmic connection with Buddha, naturally we would meet..."

"Monk Dao Yuan, why waste words with him? Just kill him directly!" the burly bald-headed monk said gruffly.

Dao Yuan bowed to him and said, "Brother Dao Kuang is right. Let us kill him now and send him to the Western Paradise to meet Buddha."

Boom!

All five Golden Core Realm experts made their move at once.

"What the hell is going on? No matter where I run these past few days, these guys always catch up..."

Xiao Yi, holding a Grade Four Yuan weapon and covering his arms with the Divine Skills of the weapon, fended off the combined assault from the five experts, but inwardly he was extremely annoyed.

For two days...

No matter where he ran, he was quickly found by the others.

"Xiao Yi, just surrender yourself!"

"Stop resisting in vain!"

Dao Yuan joined his hands together, his appearance dignified, "Donor Xiao, surrender without a fight and let this monk transform you with the Buddhist Law."

"Transform your grandpa…" Xiao Yi's eyes blazed red, staring daggers at Dao Yuan, and with a sweep of his sword, "Gentle Breeze and Fallen Leaves!"

Swish!

As the Sword Qi swept across, the black mud of the swamp roiled into a massive torrent, like a wall of black mud crushing everything in its path.

"Buddha's Palm!"

Dao Yuan struck out with his palm, energy condensing above it, like a small mountain crashing downwards.

Golden Core Realm experts could already harness some of the forces of heaven and earth, capable of moving mountains and diverting rivers with their actions.

The mud wall shattered under the crushing Buddha's Palm.

Countless specks of black mud shot out in all directions.

Dao Yuan's body revolved with Buddha's light; stepping into the Golden Elixir Realm elevated his combat power. "Brother Dao Kuang, hurry and help me!"

"Mahavairocana Palm!"

A figure of a Great Mahavairocana Buddha seemed to appear behind Dao Yuan as he struck down with his palm, delivering a world-ending blow.

Dao Kuang wielded a magic wand, the ringing of the golden rings on it resonating loudly, "One strike to bring down the dragon!"

Hum!

Golden brilliance gathered around the wand, coiling like an angry dragon as it struck down towards Xiao Yi's head.

The attacks of the other three followed closely behind.

Under the joint efforts of five Golden Elixir Realm experts, Xiao Yi was overwhelmed, and even though he had just broken through to the peak of the Shentong Realm, he still found it difficult to contend with all five masters at the same time.

"Hahaha, Monk Dao Yuan, all five of you couldn't take down Xiao Yi, isn't that a bit too embarrassing?"

"Shall we lend you a hand?"

As Xiao Yi fought fiercely against the five Golden Cores, the sound of several figures tearing through the air could be heard from not far away.

It was Ling Feng, the Heavenly Son Sword, and others who had also tracked him down.

Over these past few days...

Their hunt for Xiao Yi had never ceased, and in the previous few skirmishes, Xiao Yi managed to escape, even at the expense of several of their experts.

This made the various forces take Xiao Yi even more seriously.

Dao Kuang snorted coldly, "My Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple has its Buddhist Law to subdue him. The rest of you stand by and prevent his escape; that will suffice!"

Ling Feng laughed heartily, "You'd better hurry up, Ye Feng is already on his way. If he arrives and you haven't killed Xiao Yi, that head will be his!"

The faces of Dao Kuang and the others shifted slightly.

Ye Feng, Eighth Layer of the Golden Elixir Realm, second on the Teng Long List.

Once he makes a move,

Indeed, there will be nothing left for them to do!

Dao Yuan said in a deep voice, "Brother monks, give it your all!"

Out of the ten experts the Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple sent this time, only five remained. The five Golden Cores spared nothing, employing their Buddhist and Taoist cultivation techniques together.

Facing the overwhelming onslaught, Xiao Yi's expression was grave, "I must fight quickly and decisively. If Ye Feng arrives, it will be difficult for me to leave!"

With this thought,

His gaze towards Dao Yuan and the others now carried a chilling streak of blood-red rainbow.

In the previous encounters, Xiao Yi had always refrained from using the Fire Qilin Sword and the Blood Explosion Skill, given the latter's severe side effects.

But now...

Xiao Yi, finding himself cornered, no longer held back.

Whoosh!

A fiery red light blazed across the sky, and the Fire Qilin Sword landed in his right hand. A red glow suffused his body, appearing like a flame king.

Boom!

The aura on Xiao Yi's body surged violently.

He directly burnt thirty percent of his blood, increasing his strength thirtyfold!

Hiss!

The expressions of Dao Kuang, Ling Feng, and the others, who had been composed just a moment ago, changed drastically. A thirtyfold increase in strength was akin to Xiao Yi possessing, for a short time, the cultivation level equivalent of the Third Layer of the Golden Elixir Realm.

With his first stage Sword Intent and the Fifth Grade Yuan Bing Fire Qilin Sword,

His combat strength was enough to contend with the Sixth Layer of the Golden Elixir Realm!

"Sweeping a Thousand Armies!"

With one sweeping strike of his sword,

The Buddhist seals and martial techniques pushed forward by Dao Yuan and the others were instantly crushed into dust, the gold seals filling the sky, but the terrifying sword light never slowed for an instant.

"Not good!"

"Run!"

The faces of Dao Yuan and the others changed rapidly as they turned to flee.

But with Xiao Yi having burnt thirty percent of his blood, how could he let them go?

"Chasing Stars and Moon!"

"The Python Entwines the Tree!"

One sword move after another filled the air, each strike claiming a life.

In the blink of an eye, only Dao Yuan was left.

"No... don't kill me..."

His face filled with terror, he saw Xiao Yi advancing with sword in hand. Despair was written all over his face as he looked towards Ling Feng and the others not far away, "Ling Feng, save me..."

Ling Feng, too, had snapped out of his shock and roared, "Xiao Yi, stop!"

However...

Before he could finish his sentence,

Xiao Yi struck with his sword, splitting Dao Yuan in two.

Ling Feng's face twisted in fury, "You bastard, I told you to stop, how dare you kill!?"

Xiao Yi glanced sideways at Ling Feng, surrounded by a blood-colored aura, like a war god incarnate, and said coldly, "Who are you to obstruct me?"
