Chapter 161: Punishment
"You..." The eighth young master screamed in anger.
When he came to the Bai family, he didn’t expect things to turn out this way.
However, there was nothing he could do.
The opponent was stronger than himself. If he insisted on fighting, he would die like the rest.
With a look at his dead guards, the eighth young master gritted his teeth and looked at Yu Nianzhen, "what chance?"
Yu Nianzhen didn’t speak.
Instead, he walked toward the person, and the eighth young master tried to take a step back.
Unfortunately, the pressure from the approaching swordsman was too great, and the eighth young master couldn’t move a muscle.
"Didn’t you say you will let me live? He asked in fear.
"Take it."
Yu Nianzhen stretched out his hand, and the eighth young master saw a bottle on the other’s palm.
He looked at the bottle, hesitated for a moment, but eventually took it.
After hesitating for another moment, he opened the bottle and looked inside.
A moment later, his face turned pale, and the bottle fell from his hand.
However, Yu Nianzhen was fast enough, and he caught it before it hit the ground.
"This is the only one. If you break it, your chance will be gone." He said in a cold voice.
When the eighth young master Wang heard that, his face paled even further.
His head felt a little dizzy, and he fell to his knees in terror.
"Fellow Daoist..., spare me. Spare me this time. I will never do such a thing again."
In desperation, the eighth young master forgot his fear and lunged to catch the swordsman’s legs.
However, Yu Nianzhen was always on alert.
He didn’t like to be touched, and he immediately jumped back to escape the other’s reaching arms.
Because of this, the eighth young master lost his balance and fell face down.
"Haven’t I already spared you?" Yu Nianzhen sneered.
When he heard this, the eighth young master knew there was no chance.
He already lowered himself to beg the other side, but his opponent wasn’t willing.
However, if he followed the other’s condition, he would become a waste in his life.
"Why are you hesitating? This qi leeching worm is what I took from the Bai elder, and he is still alive. If you swallow it, you will also stay alive."
The eyes of the eighth young master Wang clouded with resentment when he heard that.
All three who he previously fed with qi leeching worms were qi transformation realm cultivators.
Even if their realm dropped, they could still be origin-forging realm cultivators.
What about him?
The lower the cultivation realm, the easier it was for the level to drop due to the qi leeching worm.
He was only at the third level of the origin forging realm, and if he swallowed the worm, his realm would drop faster than the Bai patriarch and elders.
Without intervention, his realm would drop to the meridian awakening realm, and his cultivation would never recover.
’If I knew this would happen, I would have brought the antidote.’ He thought regretfully.
Originally, the eighth young master planned to bring the antidote.
However, his father somehow learned about his plans and let him change some things.
In the new plan, the city lord would provide the antidote and let the Bai family be indebted to their Wang family. Also, if the realm of the three elders dropped to the origin forging realm, the Bai family would no longer be a threat to the Wang family.
Because of this plan, the antidote was with the city lord and not with the eighth young master.
’What should I do? Should I swallow the worm and then rush to the city lord’s residence?’ He wondered.
At this thought, he suddenly remembered something, and his eyes turned angry.
’Didn’t I leave someone to watch the gate? Why did he let these two bastards in?’
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became.
"You have three breaths to make your decision." A cold voice said, and the eighth young master Wang panicked.
’Is the lookout dead? If he is not dead, maybe he went home to call for help?’
When he considered things, the eighth young master Wang became a little hopeful.
Knowing his people, it was unlikely that the lookout allowed the two bastards to freely enter the Bai household.
If that’s the case, the person was likely attacked by the two bastards.
However, the eighth young master didn’t believe the lookout was dead.
Although the two bastards were inner sect disciples, they weren’t allowed to kill indiscriminately.
After thinking about it, the eighth young master suspected that the two came in due to the previous commotion.
Without knowing the situation, they probably didn’t kill but just knocked out the lookout.
’How long have they been here?’
The eighth young master quickly calculated the time, and hope began to fill his eyes.
If his assumptions were right, the lookout should have already woken up and gone back to the residence to get help.
In that case...
"Time’s up." A cold voice interrupted his thoughts, and he quickly came to.
"I will take it." He hurriedly said and reached for the bottle.
’Wait for me to make you kneel when my father arrives.’ He thought.
’My father will soon be here, and I will take an antidote before my cultivation is damaged. After that, I will deal with you."
After thinking that, he swallowed the qi-leeching worm and opened his mouth as proof to the other.
Yu Nianzhen didn’t need such proof, but he still nodded in approval.
However, his plan didn’t end there.
Before the eighth young master could close his mouth, and get up from the ground, he felt a sharp pain in his groin area.
In confusion, he looked down, and his eyes widened in horror.
"You..., you..., what have you done?" He screamed.
"Don’t worry, I have done a good job, and there won’t be much bleeding."
The eighth young master didn’t know what to say when he heard that. All he could do was stare at the hole in his clothes and the junk at his feet.
"Castration..." Jiang Yue muttered.
"He turned him into a eunuch..." One of the Bai relatives said in a low voice.
No one had seen the sword move that did the deed, and they all looked at Yu Nianzhen in horror.
"It’s what he deserves." A voice filled with schadenfreude resounded in the hall.
Everyone turned to look and saw Bai Ying looking at the eighth young master in disdain.
She was only thirteen and had just done an origin test
Although her aptitude was not high, she still had a chance to cultivate and enter the Sea Cloud sect.
Unfortunately, the assessment would not be for some time, and the eighth young master had taken advantage to hit her idea.
She didn’t want this, but she was forced to resign herself to the cruel fate to preserve her Bai family.
However, that didn’t mean she was truly reconciled.
Her heart was filled with hatred for the beast, and when she saw him being taught a lesson, she couldn’t help but be happy.
The heavy resentment in her heart dissipated, and she felt like she could breathe again.
"Eighth young master Wang, should you collect that and quickly find a healer?" Bai patriarch reminded.
He didn’t really want to do this, but the beast was the city lord’s son.
Although it was already bad that the beast was injured in his Bai residence, it would be worse if he died there.
Since their grievances had already been avenged, he didn’t want the person to linger around.
"Take your stuff and go." Someone shouted.
Jiang Yue, who was standing beside Bai Ying belatedly covered her eyes so that she couldn’t see the things on the floor.
"What are you doing?" She argued and tried to remove his hands.
However, Jiang Yue still had the mentality of a modern person.
He didn’t want a thirteen-year-old girl to continue looking at the chopped bits of an adult man.
At the same time, he couldn’t help but look at the sword in Yu Nianzhen’s hand.
’That sword can no longer be used.’ He thought.
Before his thoughts could continue, a mad laugh was heard from the front of the hall.
Jiang Yue looked and saw the eighth young master looking at his bits incredulously.
He was in his twenties with several wives and concubines.
Some of his women already had children, and he didn’t lack an heir.
However, the eighth young master Wang couldn’t stand this humiliation.
He liked to visit the flower garden and had many favourites who he visited whenever he had time.
When he thought that he could no longer visit the famous flowers and indulge in milk and honey, his eyes reddened.
He felt a little dizzy, and monstrous anger filled his heart.
At that moment, all he wanted was to kill the person who killed him, and a thought came to his mind.
Before he could think better of it, his eyes reddened, and he rushed toward Yu Nianzhen.
"Azhen, be careful." Jiang Yue screamed.
"Follow me to die." The eighth young master shouted.
A moment later, a loud bang was heard, and body parts flew all over the hall.
