Chapter 244

Volume One, Chapter 244: The Hunting Moment!

Xiao Yang rode on his Fire Lin Beast, embarking on his hunting moment.

“Boom!”

He descended from the sky on the Fire Lin Beast, landing directly in a small valley.

Flashes of fire erupted from the Fire Lin Beast, igniting the entire valley.

A figure charged out from the flames.

“Xiao Yang, don’t push it too far!”

The person shouted angrily at Xiao Yang.

“Ha ha, push it too far?”

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yang couldn’t help but laugh.

They could come to kill him, but he wasn’t allowed to fight back?

Was he supposed to just obediently stick out his neck for them to take a swing?

What a joke.

This person was from the Ye family of Beast Control Manor, likely connected to Ye Feiyang.

Beast Control Manor seemed united at first glance, but Xiao Yang knew the internal strife within the Ye family was fierce.

Xiao Yang had humiliated Ye Feiyang before.

So, Ye Feiyang invited someone to kill him.

Unfortunately, they were all mistaken, ridiculously so.

They would never dream that even after Xiao Yang self-destructed his dantian publicly at the Great Competition, he had not only retained his cultivation but gained even greater power.

“Elder Ye Feiqing of Beast Control Manor?”

Xiao Yang looked coldly at the black-clad old man in front of him.

“Xiao Yang, you’ve concealed yourself well; you’ve fooled the entire world. Everyone thinks you’ve lost your cultivation, but who would have thought you haven’t just regained your powers but formed such an impressive martial body.”

Ye Feiqing glared coldly at Xiao Yang.

“So, you only just realized? Isn’t it a bit late?”

Xiao Yang chuckled.

“Impossible! I will expose your true identity to everyone!”

Ye Feiqing roared in anger.

“You won’t get the chance.”

Saying this, Xiao Yang leaped off the back of the Fire Lin Beast.

“Kill!”

Without hesitation, Ye Feiqing charged at Xiao Yang.

Beast shadows surged from his body, pouncing fiercely toward Xiao Yang.

A violent force erupted from Ye Feiqing.

“Ten Thousand Beast Mysterious Skill?”

Xiao Yang laughed.

In the next moment, he punched forward.

“Rumble…”

Xiao Yang’s punch shook the void in front of him.

Then, all the beast shadows that charged at Xiao Yang were instantly scattered.

“What…”

Ye Feiqing realized he had drastically underestimated Xiao Yang.

Xiao Yang’s power was too strong.

“Earth Dragon Turns!”

Ye Feiqing stomped the ground fiercely.

“Boom!”

With a loud bang, a gigantic Earth Dragon burst out from under Xiao Yang’s feet, launching him into the air, and then instantly coiling around him.

This wasn’t a real Earth Dragon, but a supernatural ability that Ye Feiqing had cast.

Summoning earth energy to create an Earth Dragon, aimed to crush his opponent.

The Earth Dragon, formed from earth energy, coiled tightly around Xiao Yang, squeezing hard.

Xiao Yang allowed the Earth Dragon to wrap around him.

Though its power wasn’t small, it couldn’t harm Xiao Yang in the slightest.

“Bang!”

With a jolt, the Earth Dragon wrapped around him exploded, shattered by the overwhelming force erupting from Xiao Yang.

“Is this all you’ve got?”

Xiao Yang descended lightly to the ground, coldly looking at Ye Feiqing.

Ye Feiqing turned to flee.

Xiao Yang moved his foot, quickly catching up to Ye Feiqing.

Just as Xiao Yang was about to take down Ye Feiqing, the latter suddenly turned, a glint of cold light flashing like lightning as it slashed at Xiao Yang’s neck.

“…”

Xiao Yang was startled.

“Hmph, kid, you’re still too green.”

Ye Feiqing thought this sudden strike would be enough to finish Xiao Yang.

However, Ye Feiqing’s smile froze in an instant.

His slash didn’t even break the skin on Xiao Yang’s neck.

It felt as though he had sliced into cotton, finding no resistance at all.

Ye Feiqing tried to retract his blade.

But a hand had already grasped his wrist.

“Oh no…”

Ye Feiqing’s surprise was profound.

The next moment.

“Crack!”

Xiao Yang directly snapped Ye Feiqing’s right hand.

Ye Feiqing shrieked, staggering back.

“You’re too weak.”

Xiao Yang shook his head helplessly, lamenting finding an opponent worthy of a good fight was not easy!

“You…”

Holding his severed hand, Ye Feiqing’s face turned pale.

He was sweating in pain.

He released the fierce beasts from his storage pouch.

Beast shadows surged out from the pouch, but as soon as these beasts appeared, they immediately cowered on the ground, trembling in fear.

“A holy beast… your Fire Lin Beast is actually a holy beast…”

Ye Feiqing stared in shock at the Fire Lin Beast that looked akin to a divine creature.

“How is this possible? How could you subdue a holy beast?”

Ye Feiqing looked at the Fire Lin Beast in disbelief.

“You can make your way to the afterlife now.”

Xiao Yang stepped forward, instantly appearing before Ye Feiqing.

“No…”

Ye Feiqing was filled with dread.

Without a doubt.

Just one punch.

Then, Ye Feiqing was dead.

What of the Elder of Beast Control Manor?

If you wanted to kill him, you had to die!

After dispatching Ye Feiqing, Xiao Yang had the Fire Lin Beast devour the fierce beasts he had just summoned.

Riding the Fire Lin Beast, he headed straight for where the others were hiding.

No one could hide on Qingyun Mountain.

Because this was Xiao Yang’s territory.

Wherever he passed, everyone was dispatched with a single punch.

No one could withstand his punch.

“Too weak…”

Xiao Yang sighed.

The hunt continued.

On the silent Qingyun Mountain, piercing screams occasionally echoed through the air.

Outside Qingyun Mountain, everyone was anxiously waiting, eager to know what on earth was happening inside.

Finally, at the base of a cliff on Qingyun Mountain.

Xiao Yang was blocked by three figures at the foot of the cliff.

He dismissed the Fire Lin Beast.

“Why not hide anymore?”

Xiao Yang gazed at the trio.

Mo Hongyue, Wang Ao, and an old man in black.

The sect leader of the Refining Sect, Wang Ao, had also arrived.

This guy was even more despicable than Jiang Qitian.

Xiao Yang had wiped out the people from the Refining Sect, and Wang Ao should have already been on the mountain.

Yet Wang Ao had simply watched, holding back, as the Refining Sect’s members were taken down.

Indeed a great villain of the age.

Xiao Yang recognized Mo Hongyue.

But who was this old man in black?

“Who are you?”

Xiao Yang asked the old man in black.

“Guiyuan Martial Sect, Taishang Elder, Gui Zixiu!”

The old man in black said coldly.

“Very good!”

Xiao Yang nodded.

“Will you three fight me together, or one at a time?”

Xiao Yang asked nonchalantly.

“Xiao Yang, didn’t expect you not only to regain your cultivation but also to attain such a powerful martial body. Hand over the refining body method, or I’ll shatter your corpse and feed it to the dogs.”

Wang Ao glared at Xiao Yang coldly.

Xiao Yang’s self-detonation of his dantian was witnessed by all.

Wang Ao thought Xiao Yang had become this powerful by practicing refining body techniques, making his martial body impervious to blades and water.

This was the legendary technique of turning one’s flesh into a holy body.

If they obtained such techniques, the Refining Sect’s power would surely increase dramatically.

“Hmph, Sect Leader Wang, you don’t think you can hog this all for yourself.”

Gui Zixiu said coldly.

“We’ll see who can take this guy down; the loot is for whoever wins.”

Wang Ao glanced at Gui Zixiu.

“Very well, let’s see who has the skills!”

Gui Zixiu nodded in agreement.

Mo Hongyue had remained quiet, staring coldly at Xiao Yang.

Her intuition told her that Xiao Yang was extremely dangerous at this moment.

“There’s a Demon Sect member here; shouldn’t you handle this Demon Sect person first?”

Xiao Yang pointed at Mo Hongyue.

“A Demon Sect scoundrel?”

Gui Zixiu and Wang Ao turned to look at Mo Hongyue.

“Hmm?”

Mo Hongyue was taken aback.

She hadn’t expected Xiao Yang to pull this trick.

“Actually, we could team up to take her down first, then resolve our own issues. What do you think?”

Xiao Yang suggested to Gui Zixiu and Wang Ao.

“Now that we’re here, let’s not hide it anymore; come out!”

Xiao Yang suddenly called out to the woods nearby.

“Hmph!”

A cold laugh echoed from the woods.

Then, a shadow emerged from the trees.

The individual wore a tight black outfit and a hood, only exposing two cold eyes.

A faint yet palpable killing intent radiated from this person.

“This…”

Wang Ao, Gui Zixiu, and Mo Hongyue were all taken aback; they hadn’t sensed the presence of this black-clad figure.

Yet, Xiao Yang had sensed him.

This indicated that Xiao Yang’s cultivation was above theirs!

How could that be?

“You guys from the Smoke Rain Tower really never quit!”

Xiao Yang said, speechless.

As the premier assassin organization in the North, the Smoke Rain Tower had a stellar reputation.

Once they accepted an assassination mission, they would surely see it through.

However, what surprised Xiao Yang was that this assassin from Smoke Rain Tower was no ordinary figure.

“Now it’s three against one; let’s first deal with this Demon Sect remnant, and then we can fight it out!”

Xiao Yang proposed.

Mo Hongyue was feeling utterly annoyed.

“Don’t be fooled by this Xiao Yang guy; we can only leave here if we kill him!”

Mo Hongyue shouted.

The entire Qingyun Mountain was under a sealing array.

Only by killing Xiao Yang could they escape.

“Agreed, first kill Xiao Yang, other issues can wait.”

Wang Ao, the sect leader of the Refining Sect nodded.

“So what are we waiting for? Kill!”

Gui Zixiu, the Taishang Elder of the Guiyuan Martial Sect shouted.

However, no one moved.

Xiao Yang’s strength was apparent!

Who would dare to strike him first?

“A bunch of cowards!”

Wang Ao, sect leader of the Refining Sect, sneered. The next moment, a set of battle armor erupted from his body.

Metal wings spread behind him, adorned with countless blade feathers.

“Hmm?”

Xiao Yang was somewhat surprised; Wang Kunpeng had the same kind of wings.

Now, the Refining Sect leader was using this trick as well.

As Wang Ao’s metal wings flared, countless blade feathers shot out, raining down toward Xiao Yang like a storm.
