C1047 Secretly Plotting Against Xiao Yun Was a Tragedy!
The dignified Martial Saint of the Xiao Family, one of the top experts in the Floating Cloud Empire, had his arm chopped off by a junior. Putting aside the fact that he didn't even have the courage to fight a Ninth Grade Martial King Stage junior, he had chosen to flee!
If such news were to spread, how would the outside world view the Xiao Family?!
Under such circumstances, no matter how many Martial Saint Expert resided in the Xiao Family, the fear of the other major powers in Floating Cloud Empire would be greatly reduced!
"So this is the Martial Saint of the Xiao Family?" The old ancestor of the Ye Family, Ye Hanqiu, looked at Xiao Yun's back and sneered. "If Xiao Family is the same as this, then we don't have to be afraid of them. "
As a sixth grade Martial Saint, Ye Hanqiu's cultivation base was considered to be at the top in the Floating Cloud Empire. Within the Floating Cloud Empire, there were only a handful of experts who were stronger than him. Therefore, even if the Xiao Family held a banquet to intimidate the other major powers in the Floating Cloud Empire, the Ye Family would still attend it calmly. Because of Ye Hanqiu's existence, the Ye Family had the confidence to face the Xiao Family head on!
The reason why the Ye Family chose to stop attacking and suppress the Xiao Family was because they didn't want to completely fall out with the Xiao Family at this time. They just wanted the Xiao Family to focus all their energy on the Ye Family.
After all, although the Ye Family had the confidence and confidence to face the Xiao Family head on, if the Ye Family and the Xiao Family really fought face to face, the Ye Family wouldn't be able to remain unharmed. The internal strife of the Ye Family had weakened the Ye Family by a lot. If they continued to fight the Xiao Family head on, it would be a huge blow to the Ye Family.
Therefore, although the Ye Family was closer to the Luo Family under the influence of Ye Ming and Ye Hao, when the third Martial Saint was born in the Xiao Family, most of the elders of the Ye Family chose to stop suppressing the Xiao Family for the sake of safety. Even if the patriarch of the Ye Family, Ye Hong, and a few other elders who were leaning towards the Luo Family tried their best to stop them, it wouldn't change anything.
As for Ye Hanqiu, he was also one of the supporters of the Conservatives. In fact, if it wasn't for Ye Hanqiu's support, the elders of the Ye Family wouldn't be able to force Ye Hong to give up secretly suppressing the Xiao Family.
Now, seeing that Desolate Yu, a Martial Saint, was entangled by Wang Wuxin, a Ninth Grade Martial Emperor, he still couldn't win. Furthermore, Xiao Yun's arm was severed by Zhang Qingshi, who was only a Ninth Grade Martial Emperor. Now, he didn't dare to fight Luo Chen and fled in a panic. This undoubtedly shook Ye Hanqiu's mind.
"It seems like this old man was overly cautious back then. . . "
Ye Hanqiu sighed and said to Ye Hao, "I won't interfere in the matters after this. You guys can do whatever you want. As long as this matter doesn't get too out of hand, I won't interfere. "
Ye Hao's eyes lit up when he heard this. With the words of this old ancestor, those elders of Ye Family who opposed to continuing to suppress the Xiao Family would no longer have the ability to organize them.
Thinking of this, Ye Hao couldn't help but glance at Luo Chen. He knew very well why Ye Hanqiu's attitude had changed this time. One reason was that Xiao Yun and Desolate Yu of the Xiao Family were too weak. More importantly, the strength that Luo Chen had displayed!
With his Ninth Grade Martial King cultivation base, he had defeated a Martial Saint from the Ghost Clan and a Martial Saint from the Bone Clan, and had even killed a Martial Saint from the Bone Clan!
Even though Luo Chen's Slaughter Sword Tao Will was extremely effective against Expert of Bone Clan, and Sword Cultivator was able to easily strike the vital point of the Martial Saint from the Bone Clan, this was still enough for Martial Saint Expert to pay attention to the strength that Luo Chen had displayed.
After provoking a great enemy like Luo Chen, the Xiao Family was afraid that they wouldn't be able to fend for themselves. So, how could they have the energy to deal with the other powers that were secretly suppressing the Xiao Family?
Even if the Ye Family attacked the Xiao Family at this moment, the Xiao Family could only grit their teeth and swallow their anger!
Luo Chen noticed Ye Hao's gaze, but he didn't say anything. Although he had killed the Martial Saint of Bone Clan and scared Xiao Yun away, he didn't forget that there was another Martial Saint of the Ghost Clan watching from the side.
Although the Martial Saint from the Ghost Clan who attacked him together with the Martial Saint from the Bone Clan had disappeared the moment he killed the Martial Saint from the Bone Clan, as if he knew that he was no match for him and had chosen to run away, Luo Chen could clearly sense a vague killing intent locking onto him. As long as he relaxed even the slightest bit, the master of the killing intent would attack him!
As for who the owner of the killing intent was, Luo Chen didn't even need to think about it!
The Sword Embryo in his hand trembled slightly. A bright light flashed across Luo Chen's eyes. In the next moment, Luo Chen's body swayed. He took a few steps back and almost fell to the ground.
"Junior Martial Brother Luo!" Zhang Qingshi's expression changed slightly when she saw this scene. She quickly came to Luo Chen's side and supported him to prevent him from falling.
Luo Chen didn't say anything, but his face was pale. It looked like he had consumed too much of his energy to kill the Martial Saint of Bone Clan, even if he had pills to replenish his energy. At this moment, he couldn't help but feel exhausted.
The surrounding onlookers didn't suspect him. They only thought that Luo Chen had used up too much of his energy. After all, Luo Chen was only a Ninth Grade Martial King. No matter how talented Luo Chen was, it was impossible for him to kill a Martial Saint with his Ninth Grade Martial King cultivation base without being affected by it.
There were even some who looked into the depths of the Xiao Family mansion and laughed in a low voice. "I wonder what expression Xiao Yun will have when he sees this. "
Hearing what the man said, the surrounding onlookers also laughed. Xiao Yun was actually scared away by Luo Chen, who was bluffing. This had undoubtedly turned Xiao Yun into a laughing stock!
"Damn it! This kid!" In the depths of the Xiao Family's mansion, Xiao Yun saw the same scene. His face turned green and white, especially when he saw Xiao Family's eyes. It made Xiao Yun's face burn with pain.
He never thought that Luo Chen was just bluffing!
Luo Chen, who was already at the end of his rope, had actually scared him away!
Xiao Yun could already imagine how bad his reputation in Floating Cloud Empire would become after today. Even if Xiao Family could successfully shock all the major powers in Floating Cloud Empire, he, Xiao Yun, would still become the laughing stock of countless people!
Furthermore, with such a huge variable, it was impossible for the Xiao Family to intimidate all the major powers. The best outcome now was for the Xiao Family to capture Fallen Dust and the others, and protect the Xiao Family's last bit of face!
In the shadows, the Martial Saint of the Ghost Clan who attacked Luo Chen previously looked at the pale face of Luo Chen. Doubt flashed across his eyes.
"This kid's situation is a little strange. . . " The Martial Saint from the Ghost Clan looked at Luo Chen who was not far away. He hesitated for a while, but in the end, he still didn't attack.
He wasn't confident that he could kill Luo Chen with a single strike. More importantly, he wasn't sure if Luo Chen was pretending to be exhausted to lure him out!
