Chapter 128: Kill Them All

　　“Haha!”

　　Yunxiao burst out laughing. He could not remember when was the last time he had seen such a poser, because all those who dared to posture in front of him had died. As he laughed, his voice grew cold and his eyes were slowly filled with a murderous look.

　　Ding Ling’er’s nostrils flared, and she said, “What’s the difference between this and killing him?”

　　Cheng Feiche shook his head and sighed. “This guy doesn’t seem to appreciate it. Miss Ling’er, you can’t blame me for that. Please get out of the way, both of you, lest you accidentally get hurt later.” No sooner had he spoken than the group of warriors behind him broke out and surrounded Yunxiao.

　　Yunxiao did not pay attention to these Martial Masters, who could not pose a threat to him, but instead fixed his eyes at the two Martial Kings and four Martial Lords standing beside Cheng Feiche.

　　Although Cheng Feiche was not the heir of his family, he was also a direct descendant. According to the customs of the aristocratic families in the Firecrow Empire, he could have two Martial Kings and four Martial Lords as his guards, and there was no limit to Great Martial Masters and Martial Masters.

　　Such an arrangement was unimaginable in other aristocratic families. For example, although Xingyang Jie was the heir of his family, he had only one Martial Lord protecting him. It showed how powerful the four major families were in the Firecrow Empire.

　　Ding Ling’er was trembling with rage. “Cheng Feiche, are you sure you won’t even do me a little favor?”

　　Cheng Feiche rubbed his nose lazily and said, “I did, but you refused to accept it. If we leave like this, the dignity of the Firecrow Empire’s aristocratic families will be hurt. The people of these small border states are becoming more and more unbridled now. I think it is time to discipline them.”

　　With a cold grin and a murderous air exuding from him, Yunxiao said, “Since you are worried that your dignity will be hurt, then I will trample on it right in front of everyone!” He threw his right arm over his shoulder, causing a cloud piercing arrow to shoot whistling up into the air and explode over the trade fair into eight smaller arrows of different colors that shot out in eight directions. For a moment, all the people in the city looked up in horror.

　　“A cloud piercing arrow?” Cheng Feiche showed a mocking look and said, “So, you are from Tianshui’s military? No wonder you are so unbridled. But, this is as far as you can go. Do you think you can defeat us by calling over tens of thousands of soldiers?”

　　“Haha!”

　　The warriors around him roared with laughter. They all had the same mocking look while staring at Yunxiao, as if he were an idiot. Even Ding Ling’er and Yu Rong frowned slightly.

　　“This guy is such a fool! He wants to use the army against us! Hah!”

　　“Those ordinary soldiers are so weak that I can kill tens of thousands of them alone, and I don’t even need to rest.”

　　“Hmph! The people of these small states are indeed becoming more and more unbridled and brainless!”

　　“Well, we can blow his head open later and see if it’s full of shit or something.”

　　“Haha!”

　　They were laughing so hard that their faces looked ferocious. Bullying was their favorite, because not only was it safe, but they could also get lucrative merits and benefits. So, each of them was extremely excited.

　　Suddenly, the two warriors behind Cheng Feiche frowned slightly. A little shocked, they exchanged a look, then sent out their divine sense. In the next instant, their faces fell.

　　Figures began to swarm over from all directions like bees returning to their hives. At first, they came in one or two, but later in groups. As if suddenly emerging from the water, layers upon layers of warriors and Martial Masters surrounded the street, all looking down coldly.

　　Meanwhile, plumes of dark purple murderous air emanated from their bodies, slowly drifting and gathering in the air, veiling the sky like a dark cloud. Soon, a terrible finger—scaled and armored—gradually appeared.

　　Cheng Feiche and the group of warriors, who were in the center, turned pale as their eyes grew wide in terror. Although these people were only warriors, they came in great numbers, and their combined murderous air was so strong that it filled the hearts of Cheng Feiche and the warriors around him with a terrible feeling of powerlessness.

　　Even the two Martial Kings were looking at each other in horror, and they felt their flesh creep when they looked at the dark purple finger in the sky. They had a feeling that if the finger were to fall, even both of them would be crushed under it. Although it did not make sense, it came from a warrior’s most instinctive intuition.

　　A young man, who was only a five-stars Martial Master, walked out of the crowd, then fell to one knee before Yunxiao and said, “Bai Chengfeng offers greetings, Young Master Yun! The members of Dubhe, a total of two thousand and three hundred and thirty warriors, are all here!”

　　Meanwhile, Jia Rong, Chen Zhen, and few others ran over from the distance while shouting, “Young Master Yun, Young Master Yun!”

　　Several figures could be seen behind them, who lightly stepped forward and appeared next to Yunxiao in the next instant. There were a total of five of them: two Martial Kings, two Martial Lords, and a peak-level Great Martial Master. They were none other than Xiao Qingwang, Luo Yunshang, Li Chunyang, Chen Dasheng, and Yian, who came as soon as they received Jia Rong’s message.

　　Together with Hong Bing, who had been on the scene all the time, the number of Martial Kings on both sides was equal now. Yunxiao’s side was three Martial Lords short, but Xiao Qingwang alone was enough to beat the other side, because he was a peak eight-stars Martial King. And there were also a large number of State Guardians pouring over, who were either Martial Masters or Great Martial Masters. Soon, there were thousands of them.

　　In the blink of an eye, Cheng Feiche and his guards, some thirty of them, were completely surrounded from all sides. There was not a single sound that could be heard in the street. It was eerily quiet as everyone held their breath, especially Cheng Feiche and his men. Beads of sweat rolled off their foreheads, but they did not dare to even move, as if a careless mistake would immediately bring them a great storm, crushing them all to pieces.

　　Yunxiao’s eyes swept across those warriors, then he lifted a hand as he pointed at one of them and said coldly, “Did you say you wanted to blow open my head?”

　　“I…No, I didn’t! It was not me, I didn’t say that!” The warrior was so frightened that he pissed in his pants. While trembling, he stepped backward and cried, “Young Master, save me, Young Master! Please! Save me!”

　　“It’s been years since someone dared to say such arrogant things in front of me!”

　　Yunxiao made a grabbing gesture, pulling the warrior over with an invisible force. The man ran desperately in Cheng Feiche’s direction, swinging his arms as fast as he could, but he still flew backward helplessly.

　　With a cold look on his face, Yunxiao jerked up his leg and struck the warrior on the back with his knee, breaking his bones and forcing a mouthful of blood out of his mouth. Then, he slowly lowered his leg, and the warrior fell to the ground with fear and pain in both eyes. “Save me, Young Master! Save me!” he kept mumbling.

　　Bam!

　　All of a sudden, Yunxiao stamped on his head, causing the warrior’s skull to explode like a watermelon. Blood, bone fragments, and brains spilled everywhere, shocking everyone. The horrible sight brought nausea to many, and Ding Ling’er simply turned to the side and began to vomit.

　　No one dared to say a word. Cheng Feiche’s face was livid, and his forehead was covered in cold sweats. He could not figure out why a young master of a small state was served by so many mighty men. Meanwhile, Xingyang Jie’s face was as pale as a sheet. Looking at the headless body under Yunxiao’s foot, he shivered violently, as if he were trapped in an ice cellar.

　　Yunxiao lifted his right hand high, and with a monstrous killing intent in his eyes, he said, “I’ve told you just now, since you are worried that your dignity will be hurt, I will trample it right in front of everyone.” Then, he said in a slow but strong voice, “Kill them all and leave no survivors!”

　　Everyone on Cheng Feiche’s side was shocked. They could not believe what they had just heard. Although they were surrounded, they still wore the same proud and arrogant faces, and some even looked slightly angry. After all, they came from a noble aristocratic family of the empire. Even the emperor of a state would have to show them some respect.

　　In the beginning, Cheng Feiche thought that Yunxiao would surely humiliate him and make them leave dejectedly, and he had even planned how he would take revenge when he got back. But, he did not expect that Yunxiao would order them all to be killed without saying another word or even looking at him!

　　‘This…This is absurd! Doesn’t he know who I am? Is he not afraid of bringing trouble to his family? Is he really a fool?’

　　Even as he was utterly stunned, a large number of warriors rushed over, and the dark purple murderous air fell like a blanket, spreading out across the street. The two Martial Kings were about to strike, but Xiao Qingwang’s gaze immediately locked them in place. Both of them were just one-stars Martial Kings. They might be able to fight Li Chunyang, but they could hardly breathe under Xiao Qingwang’s pressure of an eight-stars Martial King.

　　‘He’s crazy! He’s really crazy!’ Cheng Feiche only had this thought in his head as he screamed frantically, “I’m a direct descendant of the Cheng Family! How dare you attack me! I want to see your City Lord! Ask your City Lord to come here right now!”

　　His voice was loud, but it rang hollow amid the crazy slaughter. Everyone’s face was cold, and they looked at him as if he were just a clown.

　　Ding Ling’er and Yu Rong had finally recovered from their shock. Looking at the men around Cheng Feiche fall to the ground one after another, their foreheads began to sweat profusely. She hurriedly grabbed Yunxiao’s arm and cried out in terror, “Stop! Stop it right now! Do you know what you are doing? He is a direct descendant of the Cheng Family, one of the four major families of the Firecrow Empire! If you kill him, you will bring yourself and Tianshui a great disaster!”

　　Yunxiao sneered indifferently. “Cheng Family? If they dare to provoke me, I don’t mind wiping them out of the Firecrow Empire.”
