Chapter 60 - Everyone Must Die!
The Yang patriarch dared not stop Long Chen from approaching the Bai brothers.
He had a feeling Long Chen would give him a surprise. Both Yang Qingxuan and Yang Yuntian were stunned when they almost fell over from Long Chen’s overwhelming aura.
Up till now, they were under the assumption that the only reason the Bai brothers had been forced to use Yang Xueqing as a hostage was due to the Yang patriarch fighting them off, but to think it was Long Chen!
It was clear he was at the Eighth Draconic Stage, but his bizarre transformation caused his strength to go beyond it. Yang Qingxuan and the rest thought that Long Chen had become a Beast Warrior, but they didn’t know how.
There were too many things happening, and Long Chen usually wasn’t at the Yang estate, so they never had a chance to ask him.
“I fear Chen’er will become much more powerful than we thought ...”
The three of them sighed. Yang Yuntian was especially surprised by Long Chen’s growth.
Long Chen's current state terrified both Bai Sheng and Bai Li, but they had never thought that he would be too fast to track. Bai Li had watched Long Chen disappear and felt the chill on his back at the exact same moment.
Long Chen’s bony spine stabbed into Bai Li, twisting and tearing his heart apart. Bai Li twitched from the intense pain. He lowered his head and saw the bone spine poking out of his chest, his pale face becoming paler.
“This ... Impossible ... I ...”
He couldn’t believe it, but the pain made him realize that he was about to die. A moment later, his vision turned dark and his consciousness slowly faded.
Bai Li wanted to turn his head when saw the Yang family staring at him in shock, but he had no time. He felt tired, very tired.
His eyes widened when he realized that the one who had killed him was none other than Long Chen, the one he had ignored previously!
But it was too late. He felt his mind fraying apart, and he soon died before he could express his regret and anger.
Long Chen threw Bai Li away, his body landing in front of the Yang patriarch.
Everyone finally reacted to what had happened. The Yang patriarch, Yang Qingxuan, and Yang Yuntian gulped when they saw the body. They were so excited that they couldn’t come up with any words.
Bai Sheng, on the other hand, was stunned when he saw Long Chen kill Bai Li. When he saw his brother’s corpse, he first felt anger and then fear.
He hurriedly ran towards Yang Xueqing—she was his only way out of there. But when he turned around, a pair of cold hands grabbed his neck. Bai Sheng knew that the moment he moved was the moment he died.
He was then lifted off his feet. He stared into Long Chen’s cold red eyes and recalled how Bai Li had died. Bai Sheng felt the fear of death for the first time in his long life.
His face paled. “Please spare me! I will take my family and move away from Baiyang Town! We will give you all of our treasures too!”
Long Chen smiled in disbelief.
The Yang patriarch had accepted the fact that Long Chen had killed Bai Li. They crowded over and felt satisfaction when they saw how disheveled Bai Sheng was. Many emotions ran down the Yang patriarch’s face when he saw his sworn brother losing to Long Chen.
“Chen’er, do you know what to do?”
The Yang patriarch glared coldly at Bai Sheng when he said that.
His intentions were clear. Bai Sheng could not live.
Bai Sheng shouted angrily at the Yang patriarch, “Yang Cangqiong! I was your sworn brother throughout our entire lives! How dare you betray me?! I’ve helped you numerous times, so let me go now!”
The Yang patriarch chuckled. “The night you fed me the poison from the Nightmare Flower was the very same night I stopped thinking of you as my sworn brother. Chen’er, do it now.”
Bai Sheng started crying when he felt the hand on his neck tightening. He knew there was no hope. None of them would spare him.
To think the two plots he had devised had failed to eradicate the Yang family! His plans were worthless in front of Long Chen. Staring at the prodigy, Bai Sheng felt unwilling to die! He hated himself for not killing Long Chen when the latter was still young!
Xiong’er, none of this would’ve happened if you were crueler. Long Qinglan was such a mysterious character back then. How could we ever think his son would be useless?
Bai Sheng lost all hope.
But he laughed maniacally when he looked at Yang Xueqing, Yang Qingxuan, and Yang Yuntian. “Kill me if you want, but I don’t have the keys to the Deep Blue Chains that I tied Yang Xueqing with! There’s no way you can slice them open without an advanced tier spiritual sword!”
Bai Sheng thought he could still prevent them from killing him. Being tied up for the rest of her life would be a fate worse than death for Yang Xueqing.
But the Yang family scoffed at his threat. “Looks like you still don’t know that the Lingwu family gave us an advanced tier spiritual sword as a reward!”
Bai Sheng despaired even more. He was even more certain now that he would die today!
But then he remembered something and chuckled. “Kill me! Kill me, then! But the rest of the Yang family will perish! You guys will be the last remaining members of the Yang family! Hahaha! Yang Cangqiong, the Bai family still has descendants, but the Yang family will end here! I haven’t lost to you!”
Everyone was shocked to hear what he had said. Even though the Yang patriarch had ordered Yang Qingxuan to escort the Yang family to safety, it seemed the Bai family had been monitoring their movements. Looking at how Bai Zhanlong and Bai Zhanfeng were absent, Long Chen frowned. Both Yang Qingxuan and Yang Yuntian were so shocked that they fell to the ground.
Staring at their heartbroken faces, Bai Sheng laughed. “With Zhanlong’s speed, he should’ve already met the weaker members of the Yang family. They are all dead now! The Yang family still lost in the end!”
Yang Qingxuan glared at Bai Sheng before looking at the Yang patriarch. “Father ... Wu’er and the rest ...”
Long Chen had never thought Bai Sheng would do this. He immediately crushed Bai Sheng’s neck, ending the life of the horrible old man.
One of the strongest cultivators in Baiyang Town was killed just like that, at the hands of a sixteen-year-old. No one could’ve ever foreseen this.
Long Chen was also surprised that he had become the strongest cultivator in Baiyang Town in just a little over a month. It was all thanks to the Dragon Jade Pendant and the Inherited Blood Essence!
“Grandfather, I leave the Ascension Fruits and my mother to you. Lingqing and the rest might be in trouble. I’m much faster than everyone here, so I will go and save them!”
The Yang patriarch nodded gravely.
They now trusted Long Chen more than the Yang patriarch. He had become their main pillar of strength.
If someone were to tell them this would happen a couple of months ago, the Yang family would’ve thought they were crazy.
***
Tears welled in Yang Lingqing’s eyes.
The youths, elderly, and women of the Yang family were all huddled together. Only Yang Lingqing, Yang Lingyue, and Yang Wu were strong enough to put up a fight.
Facing them were the eldest son, Bai Zhanlong; the fourth son, Bai Zhanfeng; Bai Shichen; and Bai Shiji. The latter two had completely recovered.
The four of them chuckled when they looked at Yang Lingqing and the rest. Bai Shiji said, “Lingqing, Lingyue, have you two made your decisions? Your family is completely eradicated, so the only way you can live is by following my brother and I!”
Yang Wu was already injured and lying on the ground.
Yang Lingyue was holding him in her arms. Yang Wu’s face was pale and blood kept dripping from the corner of his lips. His injury was worse than before!
Yang Lingyue was crying, but she still glared at Bai Shiji spitefully. “The four of you attacked my brother at the same time! You have no honor! None of you have honor! All you can do is bully the weak and the women!”
Bai Shiji ignored her scornful remarks. “Looks like you are too stupid. The world only cares about winning or losing. No one gives a damn about the process. Your grandfather and that brat should already be dead in the hands of my grandfather and the expert from the Blood Saints. All we need to do now is kill the rest of you and celebrate back home! Who cares if you agree or not, we can just take you away by force while we kill everyone!”
Yang Lingqing knew about the expert from the Blood Saints as well as Yang Xueqing being held hostage. Her heart shattered when she learned that the entire Yang family would be eradicated along with Long Chen and the rest.
If it weren’t for the orders Yang Qingxuan had given them before he left, Yang Lingqing and the rest would’ve broken down.
Just then, Bai Shichen and Bai Shiji approached the rest of the Yang family, causing the children and women to scream in fear. Yang Lingqing bit her lips and said to Yang Wu, “Brother, give me the Illusory Glass Sword.”
