Chapter 194: Well, What A Death Wish!

Xiao Yang watched as his parents and younger sister became prisoners of the Giant Sword Sect halfway up the mountain, remaining unmoved.

Under his protection, they’d gradually become arrogant and oblivious to the greater world.

In his previous life, whenever something went wrong, they would turn to him.

He had once been reluctant to involve himself with the Xiao family anymore.

Yet, here he was, soft-hearted to solve their problems time and again.

Without Xiao Yang, the Xiao family of Yuanlong City would probably have been wiped out countless times in the past.

What chilled Xiao Yang’s heart was how they only sought him out for help when they were in trouble, but ignored him completely otherwise.

Qin Fei was their adopted son, yet he was never consulted when problems arose.

Talk about favoritism!

They treated their adopted son like a treasure while treating their biological son like weeds.

In his previous life, he had been foolish enough to compromise repeatedly for the Xiao family.

But resurrected for a second chance, he no longer felt the need to pamper them.

However, as they became captives of the Giant Sword Sect, they were quick to bring him out as a shield.

“Haha, you say Xiao Yang is your son?” scoffed Zhao Hai, the leader of the Giant Sword Sect.

“Who doesn’t know Xiao Yang is the son of me, Xiao Zhenshan?” Xiao Zhenshan said proudly.

“Pfft, never heard of him,” Zhao Hai replied with a sneer.

The Northern Region was vast, and the Giant Sword Sect was far from Yuanlong City and the Qingyang Sword Sect.

They had heard of Xiao Yang’s reputation, but who was Xiao Zhenshan?

If it weren’t for the Centennial Tournament, they might never have encountered the Giant Sword Sect.

At that moment, the Sacred Martial Forbidden Domain brimmed with countless sects from the Northern Region.

“Leader, I’ve heard that many people have been impersonating the Sect Holy Son of the Qingyang Sword Sect, Xiao Yang, swindling others. These must be those frauds,” a middle-aged sword practitioner next to Zhao Hai mocked Xiao Zhenshan.

“Ah, that explains it!” Zhao Hai’s disdain for Xiao Zhenshan deepened.

“You scoundrels deserve to die!”

Zhao Hai’s killing intent surged.

“You dare call me a fraud?” Xiao Zhenshan nearly spat blood in anger.

“My big brother is Xiao Yang! If you dare harm us, prepare to be exterminated!” Xiao Yue, his younger sister, shouted furiously.

“Is that so? I’ll kill you first and then see if that Xiao Yang will avenge you and destroy my Giant Sword Sect.”

Zhao Hai raised his massive sword.

“Father, wait!” At that moment, a young man carrying a huge sword approached from behind.

The Giant Sword Sect was fashionable, everyone rocking a giant sword.

“Sheng’er?” Zhao Hai stared at his son Zhao Sheng in surprise.

“This girl is quite lovely. How about I keep her for myself?” Zhao Sheng brazenly eyed Xiao Yue.

“You lecherous fool, what are you looking at?” Xiao Yue glared at Zhao Sheng in disgust.

“Hehe, spicy girl, I like it hot,” Zhao Sheng replied lewdly.

“Haha…”

The other members of the Giant Sword Sect burst into laughter.

“You…”

Xiao Yue was furious.

“Kill the rest, but keep this girl. How dare she compete with my Giant Sword Sect for spiritual herbs? She’s asking for death!”

Zhao Hai regarded Xiao Zhenshan and the others with contempt.

“What?” Xiao Zhenshan’s face turned pale in an instant.

“You bastards, my brother won’t let you off!” Xiao Yue cried, on the verge of tears.

“You swindlers, even now, you still think you can fool us?” Zhao Sheng mocked.

“My brother really is Xiao Yang!” Xiao Yue declared in despair.

How could these people not believe her brother was Xiao Yang?

If they fell into these people’s hands, her fate would be dire.

Just as the members of the Giant Sword Sect were about to act, a figure descended from the mountain.

That person was Xiao Yang.

“Brother, hurry, save us!” Xiao Yue spotted Xiao Yang, her expression shifting from surprise to joy.

A chance at rescue!

“Unfilial son, someone wants to kill your father, and you don’t rush to save him?” Xiao Zhenshan still wore his usual expression.

Xiao Yang remembered that since he could recall, his father Xiao Zhenshan had never given him a pleasant countenance.

Growing up, Xiao Zhenshan had always barked at him and never cared about him at all.

In his previous life, they only scolded and blamed him, never considering his feelings, nor standing up for him when other kids bullied him.

That was his parents and sister.

In his previous life, they only ever sucked his life force.

They only thought of him when they stirred up trouble or encountered something they couldn’t handle.

All their goodness went to Qin Fei, the adopted son.

“Xiao Yang?” Zhao Hai and the others gazed in shock at the approaching Xiao Yang.

Xiao Yang expressionlessly walked past them, showing no signs of stopping.

“Big brother, are you really going to just watch as Father, Mother, and I get killed? We are siblings! They are your real parents, your blood relatives!” Xiao Yue was panicking.

Xiao Yang halted at her words.

Ah, now it was about blood relations.

Where were they when Qin Fei framed him?

Had they ever said a word in his defense?

“Unfilial son, you’ll give me a heart attack!” Xiao Zhenshan puffed angrily.

“I said, from now on, the Xiao family has nothing to do with me,” Xiao Yang stated indifferently.

“Yang’er, you can’t stand by and do nothing. I carried you for ten months!” Chen Ruolan said in a flurry.

“You may have given birth to me, but did you ever raise me for a day?” Xiao Yang replied coldly.

He had been weak and sickly as a child, and his parents never liked him; it was his grandfather who raised him.

“No matter what, we are your parents. Your blood runs in our veins,” Chen Ruolan said loudly.

“So?” Xiao Yang retorted. “You still have a precious adopted son. You treat him so well; why not call him to save you?”

His voice was cold and distant.

“You…”

Xiao Zhenshan was furious; Xiao Yang was actually defying him.

“Old man, you’re actually putting on a show in front of the leader? You really think this snot-nosed brat is the infamous Sect Holy Son of the Qingyang Sword Sect? Even now, you want to fool us?”

“Truly a professional conman!” the Giant Sword Sect members laughed and jeered.

“Cut him down!” Zhao Hai ordered his deputy leader Zheng Zhi.

“This guy actually thinks he’s Xiao Yang!” Zhao Sheng mocked.

Deputy leader Zheng Zhi brandished his large sword and approached Xiao Yang, then swung it down without hesitation.

“I’ll teach you not to impersonate Xiao Yang…”

Zheng Zhi’s sword came crashing down with a chilling sword Qi emanating from it, the blade flashing ominously.

“Clueless idiots…”

The members of the Giant Sword Sect couldn’t help but scorn this scene.

To them, this young man was just out of luck.

“You’re the clueless ones!” Xiao Yue smirked.

With Xiao Yang here, her courage surged.

The Xiao and Chen clan members were equally thrilled.

The next moment, a jaw-dropping scene unfolded before everyone’s eyes.

Xiao Yang casually extended two fingers to block the descending giant sword.

“How is this possible…”

Zheng Zhi was left dumbfounded.

His sword strike felt like it hit some divine metal; Xiao Yang’s fingers didn’t even get a scratch.

Instead, a chip appeared on his massive sword blade.

A flesh-and-blood body had stopped Zheng Zhi’s giant sword.

Silence engulfed the crowd.

All that could be heard was the sound of the mountain wind and the rustling of leaves around them.

“Unprovoked murder and you think you’re powerful?” Xiao Yang said nonchalantly.

He scanned the crowd with an icy glare, and no one dared make eye contact.

Even Zhao Hai was shaken to the core.

Could this young man really be Xiao Yang?

Otherwise, how could he possibly block Zheng Zhi’s sword with just two fingers?

“Roar!”

Zheng Zhi screamed angrily, pushing down hard on his sword.

But no matter how hard he pressed, the massive sword wouldn’t budge an inch.

With a casual wave, Xiao Yang unleashed a wave of Sword Intent.

The sword in Zheng Zhi’s hand rebounded upward, cleaving his head in half as he fell down.

“…”

Everyone was stunned by the scene.

Zheng Zhi, the deputy leader of the Giant Sword Sect and a True Dragon realm master, just died like that?

If they hadn’t witnessed it with their own eyes, who would believe it?

All the members of the Giant Sword Sect drew their swords and surrounded Xiao Yang.

“No matter who you are, anyone who dares kill my Giant Sword Sect members shall die!” the sect leader barked, wielding his sword at Xiao Yang.

“Ah, what a death wish!” Xiao Yang shook his head helplessly and then raised his Sword Finger.
