Chapter 1177: Chapter 1177: Inside Sky Square City
Xiao Yi took the Communication Scroll and subsequently accepted some tasks, then left the Task Department.
Normally, these communications would appear in each Sub Hall.
Of course, the content of the communications, etc., will not be displayed.
The recipient must take the Token to trigger and then receive the communication.
Xiao Yi walked to the side, opened the scroll, and glanced at the communication.
"So that’s how it is." Xiao Yi suddenly smiled.
Putting away the scroll, Xiao Yi left the Wind Shattering Hall.
"Huh." Xiao Yi suddenly halted his steps, "This is Sky Square City, right."
Just now, he only intended to randomly land in a big city to take on some tasks.
Unexpectedly, he ended up in Sky Square City.
Of course, Sky Square City was near the deep mountains and wild forests.
He suddenly stopped because he remembered that there was a task from Black Cloud Academy here in Sky Square City.
Xiao Yi took out the Task Scroll, looked at it for a few moments, then nodded.
"At the Fang Family?" Xiao Yi muttered to himself and put away the scroll.
His figure swiftly flickered towards the Fang Family.
The Fang Family is one of the major clans in Sky Square City, with power only second to the City Lord’s Mansion.
Moments later, as Xiao Yi was heading towards the Fang Family, he suddenly stopped again.
Not far away, uproarious shouting and arguing captured his attention.
No, to be precise, at the center of the uproar, a woman caught his eye.
"Muu Ning?" Xiao Yi was taken aback.
Looking more closely, it was the entrance of the Muu Family Mansion.
The plaque on the mansion gate clearly bore the words ’Muu Family’.
"What a coincidence." Xiao Yi chuckled lightly.
The so-called coincidence wasn’t meeting Muu Ning.
But meeting the task objective.
At this moment, in front of the Muu Family Mansion gate, martial artists from two factions tightly surrounded the Muu Family.
"Muu Family Master, you better hand over your Second Elder." A middle-aged man said playfully.
"Your Second Elder hurt my son. If you don’t hand him over, don’t blame me when the harmony between our two families is broken."
In front of the middle-aged man was a soft couch, upon which lay a young man.
The young man looked extremely weak, seemingly severely injured.
"Fang Family Master." An elder stood imposingly in front of the Muu Family gate, "Our Muu Family Second Elder is in seclusion year-round. How could he have injured your Young Master Fang?"
Clearly, this elder was the Muu Family Patriarch.
"Still arguing?" The middle-aged man, without a doubt, was the Fang Family Head.
"My son pointed out that it was your Muu Family Second Elder. Can there be any mistake?"
"Indeed." At this moment, another middle-aged man stepped forward.
"I highly doubt that the Fang Family Head would create trouble for no reason. Please, Muu Family Master, hand over the Muu Family Second Elder."
"City Lord, you..." Muu Family Master’s eyes turned cold, but his face showed concern.
Today, the Sky Square City Lord, together with the Fang Family, surrounded his Muu Family.
If it wasn’t for the backing of the Sky Square City Lord, how would the Fang Family dare to behave so arrogantly?
His Muu Family is also one of the major powers in Sky Square City.
"Of course." The Sky Square City Lord suddenly smiled, "Both Fang and Muu Families are major forces in Sky Square City, it’s better to resolve grudges peacefully."
"If both families can form an alliance of marriage, it would be ideal."
"I believe that if it indeed happens, the Fang Family would let bygones be bygones."
"The City Lord speaks wisely." The Fang Family Head smiled proudly.
"What does the City Lord mean?" The Muu Family Master furrowed his brows.
"It’s quite simple." The Sky Square City Lord laughed, "Young Master Fang has admired your Muu Family’s Miss for a long time."
"Young Master Fang is a renowned talent in Sky Square City."
"And your Muu Family’s Miss, with her keen eyes now healed, is beautiful and charming."
"If they can become a perfect couple, they will certainly be a fine story in Sky Square City."
"Grandfather." Muu Ning turned pale, looking towards the Muu Family Master beside her.
"Hmph, ridiculous." The Muu Family Master grabbed Muu Ning’s hand, signaling her not to worry, and then sneered.
"Giving a dog a bad name, isn’t it?"
"This is merely because the Fang Family’s power has grown over the years, and you fear our Muu Family’s rise as well, hence the deceit."
"So what if that’s the case." The Fang Family Head sneered, "Sky Square City only needs the City Lord’s Mansion and our Fang Family. Why have an extra Muu Family?"
"Today, either you hand over the Second Elder to our Fang Family for punishment."
"Either hand over Muu Ning."
Sky Square City Lord waved his hand, and the surrounding martial artists instantly unleashed their aura.
"You all." Muu Family Patriarch’s face changed.
Beside him, Muu Ning showed a fearful expression.
On the soft couch, the Fang Family Young Master showed a look of joy, staring intently at Muu Ning, his eyes full of anticipation.
"Either hand over the person, or your Muu Family will cease to exist, make a choice." Fang Family Master sneered.
"You all..." In front of the Muu Family gate, a group of Muu Family Martial Artists showed anger on their faces.
Just then, a figure slowly walked up.
The indifferent figure stood before the Fang Family Martial Artists.
"Heh." The newcomer smiled faintly, "Fang Family Master, I happened to be passing by. I want to take someone; I wonder if you could make it convenient?"
"Who are you?" Sky Square City Lord looked at the newcomer with doubt.
Fang Family Master’s eyes turned cold, "Where does this brat come from? Is this a place where you can speak?"
The newcomer, naturally, was Xiao Yi.
"Does that mean Fang Family Master is unwilling to hand over the person?" Xiao Yi sneered.
"You’re courting death." Fang Family Master didn’t even look directly at Xiao Yi.
"Wait." Sky Square City Lord waved his hand, frowned, "The young master has a commanding presence; I wonder what sort of martial artist might it be?"
"What person do you want from the Fang Family?"
Xiao Yi smiled and said, "Fang Family’s Sixth Elder, Fang Xin."
"Take our Fang Family Elder?" Fang Family Master sneered, "Kid, you..."
Xiao Yi’s eyes turned cold and interrupted, "Fang Xin, former Sub Hall Master of Wind Shattering Hall, you have been wanted, come with me."
"Nonsense." Fang Family Master snorted, "Our Fang Family’s Sixth Elder wanted? Ridiculous."
While saying this, a flash of surprise crossed Fang Family Master’s face.
"May I ask who you are?" Sky Square City Lord asked in a solemn tone.
Xiao Yi took out a token and said coldly, "Academic Disciple from Black Cloud Academy, Xiao Yi."
"Black Cloud Academy? That bunch of street rats?" Fang Family Master laughed dismissively.
"I have no interest in wasting words with you." Xiao Yi shook his head, "Fang Family, hand over the person within ten breaths, or don’t blame me for being rude."
"What a joke, asking our Fang Family to hand over someone..." Fang Family Master wanted to say something strongly.
Sky Square City Lord waved his hand, "So it’s the Heavenly Talent from Black Cloud Academy, fine, since Fang Xin is wanted, then hand over the person."
"Hand over the person first." Sky Square City Lord glanced at Fang Family Master, his eyes full of fear.
Fang Family Master paused and nodded, "Fine, your Black Cloud Academy always acts overbearing, but if our Fang Family finds out there is no such warrant, don’t blame our Fang Family for being rude."
"Fang Xin, go with him first." Fang Family Master glanced at a Fang Family Martial Artist behind him.
Suddenly, a cry of pain rang out.
"Hmm?" Fang Family Master was shocked and looked towards the soft couch, where the Fang Family Young Master suddenly fell.
The place where he fell was right at Xiao Yi’s feet.
"What are you doing?" Fang Family Master coldly looked at Xiao Yi.
"Nothing, he was blocking my way." Xiao Yi sneered, "And the soft couch was blocking my feet, so I kicked it."
"What, do you have a problem with that?"
"You... you’ve gone too far." Fang Family Master shouted angrily, "I fear your Black Cloud Academy, but it doesn’t mean a mere Ninth Layer Saint Realm brat like you can act wildly before me."
"Someone, seize him for me."
Swish... Swish... Swish...
Around, Fang Family Martial Artists instantly unleashed their aura, all being of Saint King Realm.
"Be careful." Muu Ning exclaimed, her beautiful eyes had been tightly fixed on Xiao Yi’s back for an unknown time.
"What? Planning to outnumber me?" Xiao Yi chuckled.
"Yes, against you, any problem with that?" Fang Family Master showed a killing intent.
Just then, a blue-colored streak of light swiftly approached from afar.
"Junior Brother Xiao Yi."
Before the person arrived, a joyful shout was already heard.
Within a breath, the blue streak had descended.
The newcomer was Qing Lin.
Qing Lin noticed the unfriendly gazes around as soon as he landed.
"Oh? A fight? Did you start it, Xiao Yi?" Qing Lin chuckled.
"No, they provoked me." Xiao Yi shook his head.
