Time flew by like an arrow.
It had been seven years since Yuan Xiangzu left Luocui City. In these seven years, the entire Luocui City had changed a lot.
The biggest change was that the Yuan family had already fallen to the point that they were removed from the three great cultivation families of Luocui City. The Yuan family's major businesses were taken over by the Kuang family and the Xu family.
In contrast, the originally low-key Zuo family had risen very quickly in recent years. The head of the Zuo family, Zuo Hengqing, left Luocui City after the death of his daughter, Zuo Wanyin.
Without Zuo Hengqing and Zuo Wanyin, the head of the family was Zuo Fangyi. Zuo Fangyi was an ambitious person. In just a few years, he pushed the low-key Zuo family to the front. He began to intervene in all kinds of businesses. Not only that, he also raised many cultivators and even an Immortal Realm expert.
Although the Zuo family's strength couldn't compare to the peak stage Immortal Realm experts of the Kuang family and the Xu family, the Zuo family still had a foundation in the real cultivation city, Da Que Cultivation City. Therefore, before completely infringing on the interests of the Kuang family and the Xu family, the Kuang family and the Xu family didn't do anything to Zuo Fangyi.
Luocui City's Changxu Merchant House was considered the most luxurious merchant house in the entire Luocui City. This merchant house was built by the Xu family's Xu Beihe.
The entire merchant house was divided into five floors. The bottom floor was the Xu family's guild. The Xu family's guild allowed anyone to submit missions here and use the Xu family's contribution points. The second and third floors were all kinds of treasures, pills and the like for sale. The fourth floor was the biggest auction. As for the fifth floor, it was the cultivation place of the Xu family's young master, Xu Beihe.
At this moment, outside the Changxu Merchant House stood a man with long hair and a beard that hadn't been trimmed for a long time. He carried a long blade on his back and stared at the tall merchant house in front of him in a daze.
He was Yuan Xiangzu. He was very clear about who this merchant house originally belonged to. This merchant house was his home. Xu Beihe destroyed his home and then built this merchant house.
It was also because his home was destroyed that he couldn't save the life of his sworn brother, Tian Ya. Before he became sworn brothers with Tian Ya, he only wanted Tian Ya to have an identity to be with Zuo Wanyin. He also felt guilty for not being able to save Tian Ya. Later on, when he sensed that his rapid improvement in cultivation might be due to Tian Ya, he completely regarded Tian Ya as his big brother.
Today, he came back to take revenge, to take revenge for Big Brother Tian Ya, as well as the destruction of his Ancestor Xiang's home.
Seven years. In seven years, he advanced from Channel Opening Stage Level 5 to Yuan Dan Stage Level 1, opening 102 spirit channels. All of this was given to him by Big Brother Tian Ya. Before he entered the starry sky to find a new opportunity, he had to take revenge and then pay his respects to his sworn brother's grave.
"Everyone in the Changxu Merchant House, listen up. If you are not a member of the Xu Clan, please leave the Changxu Merchant House within ten breaths. Otherwise, you will be responsible for your own life." Yuan Xiangzu took a deep breath and raised his voice as he spoke.
Almost as soon as Yuan Xiangzu finished speaking, a dozen figures shot out from the Changxu Merchant House and pounced towards Yuan Xiangzu.
"Wait …" A voice rang out, and the dozen or so figures that rushed out abruptly stopped in front of Yuan Xiangzu.
Following which, a man in brocade robes walked over. He sized Yuan Xiangzu up, then laughed and said, "Oh, I was wondering who was so arrogant. So it's Young Master Zu. Young Master Zu, are you back for revenge? Do you think that I, Xu Beihe, am occupying your territory? "
Yuan Xiangzu looked at Xu Beihe, who was already in Spirit Building Stage Level 7. If it was a few years ago, he wouldn't even have the qualifications to stand in front of this person. But now, this person had become an ant in his eyes. Life's fate was truly unpredictable.
After ridiculing him, Xu Beihe's face turned cold and he said in an icy voice, "Chop off his limbs and hang them outside the Long Beard Merchant House. At the same time, warn the Yuan Clan that they have one day to get out of Luo Cui City."
It was impossible for the Yuan Clan to get out of Luo Cui City. The Xu Clan had long regarded the Yuan Clan as dead people. As long as the Yuan Clan left Luo Cui City, the Xu Clan would exterminate the Yuan Clan.
"Yes." The dozen cultivators that Xu Beihe ordered to stop charged towards Yuan Xiangzu once again.
Yuan Xiangzu was very clear that Xu Beihe wanted to show off by sending these people to deal with him. This was not for him to see, but for the onlookers to see. Otherwise, in Xu Beihe's eyes, just one person was enough to teach Yuan Xiangzu a lesson.
Yuan Xiangzu opened his hand and the long saber on his back flew out. Following which, a white saber arc sliced through the air. Blood splattered everywhere. The dozen cultivators that charged towards Yuan Xiangzu didn't even have the chance to touch him before they were sliced into two.
Xu Beihe's face changed. Among these fighters, the strongest one was already in Spirit Building Stage Level 9. He was slightly higher than him, but he couldn't even touch Yuan Xiangzu's clothes. This Yuan Xiangzu's strength …
"Young Zu, this is a misunderstanding. It's my fault …" Xu Beihe's face was pale as he carefully retreated. His voice was filled with fear and unease. Yuan Xiangzu wasn't simply in the Transcending Mortality Stage. He might even be in the Yuan Dan Stage. Back then, it was said that Yuan Xiangzu was the number one genius of the Yuan Clan. Could it be true? Yuan Xiangzu had always been hiding his strength.
Yuan Xiangzu still didn't move. The long saber in the air slashed out four more shadows. In the next instant, Xu Beihe's arms and legs were chopped off.
Yuan Xiangzu stepped forward and landed right on Xu Beihe's chest. His internal organs and blood spurted out from Xu Beihe's body. It was an unbearable sight.
However, Yuan Xiangzu didn't look at Xu Beihe at his feet. He raised his long saber again, turning it into a ten feet long saber light that slashed down from the top of Changxu Merchant House.
Boom!
A cloud of dust swept out. The entire Changxu Merchant House was sliced into two by this saber. Many cultivators that didn't come out directly died.
There were even more cultivators that wanted to watch the show. However, when they saw such a terrifying scene, they didn't dare to stay any longer. They frantically scattered in all directions. Everyone knew that the Xu Clan was done for. The Xu Clan should have had a Yuan Dan Stage cultivator, but how many years ago was that? Maybe that Yuan Dan Stage cultivator had already died of old age. Even if he didn't die of old age, that Yuan Dan Stage cultivator of the Xu Clan wouldn't be able to walk out of Yuan Xiangzu's saber.
Yuan Xiangzu didn't look at the destroyed Changxu Merchant House. Instead, he looked at the Xu Clan. He didn't go to the Xu Clan first. Instead, he went to the Changxu Merchant House first because this was his home. Xu Beihe destroyed this place and delayed him from saving his sworn brother.
… …
Luo Cui City's Yuan Clan.
The Yuan Clan, which originally occupied thousands of acres of land in Luo Cui City, now only had a courtyard of about ten acres.
When the Yuan Clan was at its peak, there were tens of thousands of clan members. Now, there were only a few hundred people. These few hundred people were all gathered in this courtyard of more than ten acres.
As for the other places, they were either occupied by the Kuang Clan or the Xu Clan. Recently, even the Zuo Clan started to occupy the Yuan Clan's place. It could be said that the Yuan Clan was not only removed from Luo Cui City's three great clans, but even their place was about to be taken away.
The Yuan Clan's Clan Head, Yuan Xiao, was sitting on the Clan Head's seat with an old face. Almost all the Yuan Clan's Spirit Building Stage and above cultivators were here. In total, there were only 15 people. The strongest cultivator of the Yuan Chen Clan was only in Transcending Mortality Stage Level 1.
Yuan Xiao looked at the sparse number of clan members and sighed, "Luo Cui City is the root of my Yuan Clan. But we have to leave this place."
No one spoke. Everyone knew what was going on. In just a few years, the Yuan Clan's properties were almost all taken away. Not only that, but the Yuan Family's disciples with even the slightest bit of aptitude would also mysteriously die outside or disappear without a trace.
"It's not that easy to leave. Your Yuan Clan's Yuan Youling injured my Xu Clan's Xu Fei." An abrupt voice sounded. Following this voice, a man walked into the Yuan Clan's meeting hall with a person in his hand. At the same time, he threw the person in his hand to the ground.
Everyone in the hall knew who this person was. It was the Xu Clan's external deacon, Xu Pao.
The person thrown to the ground by Xu Pao was Yuan Youling. However, at this moment, Yuan Youling's body was covered in wounds and he was on the verge of death.
Everyone in the Yuan Clan clenched their fists. However, they did not dare to make a move. Because if they did, the Yuan Clan would disappear completely. The Xu Clan would kill everyone in the Yuan Clan.
Yuan Xiao took in a deep breath. The Xu Clan was a bully to the extreme. They tore open the defensive array and barged into the Yuan Clan's meeting hall. Moreover, every time they came, they would use the same excuse, saying that the Yuan Clan's people injured the Xu Clan's people.
Yuan Youling was only in Channel Opening Stage Level 3 and had advanced in the past one or two years. How could a Channel Opening Stage Level 3 cultivator injure the Xu Clan's people? Moreover, the Yuan Clan's people dared to cause trouble in the Xu Clan?
Trying hard to calm his anger, Yuan Xiao stood up and said with a face of guilt, "This matter is my Yuan Clan's fault. Deacon Xu, please calm down."
After saying that, Yuan Xiao turned to Yuan Youling and scolded, "You can't stay at home. Why did you go out to cause trouble? See if I don't kill you? From today onwards, you … "
"Clan Head, I have something to report …" Yuan Youling struggled to say a few words. However, blood immediately overflowed from his mouth, making it impossible for him to continue.
"Okay, in that case, I'll give you a chance to explain." Yuan Xiao took out a pill and popped it into Yuan Youling's mouth.
With this pill, Yuan Youling's breathing soon calmed down. Before he could recover, he hurriedly got up and said anxiously, "Big Brother Xiangzu is back …"
Yuan Xiangzu is back? Everyone was shocked. When Yuan Xiangzu went missing a few years ago, no one cared about him. How many people from the Yuan Clan had gone missing over the years? Moreover, although Yuan Xiangzu's aptitude was good, it had almost cost the entire Yuan Clan.
"Big Brother Xiangzu destroyed the Changxu Merchant House and killed many of the Xu Clan's people. He even killed Xu Beihe. He should be heading to the Xu Clan's lair now … "Yuan Youling said everything in one breath.
He had hurried back to report the news. That was why he met Xu Pao on the way. Xu Pao had injured him and falsely accused him of injuring the Xu Clan's people.
"What?" Yuan Xiao clenched his fists in excitement.
