Chapter 133: Chapter 133: Tremors in all Directions (3 updates)
Translator: 549690339
Xue An had just used the Soul Searching Technique, directly searching through Yu Lang’s memories.
Unexpectedly, Xue An didn’t find any traces of An Yan in Yu Lang’s recollections.
The only link that could be made was that two years ago, Yu Yang had followed Yu Ming to attend an Immortal Sects Conference.
Beyond that, this Yu Yang had never left Lingnan.
Yu Lang was stunned, then said, “This Immortal Sects Conference, as the name implies, is a gathering of various Hidden Sects, usually held every two years. It’s where the young elites from major Sects and noble families compete, and the rankings on the Jade List are contested.”
The Jade List, Hidden Sects…
These names stirred something in Xue An’s heart.
“When is the next Immortal Sects Conference to be held?”
“In just over two months! And this year’s Immortal Sects Conference will be held in Lingnan!”
Xue An’s gaze flickered slightly as he nodded, “I see!”
With matters concluded, everyone dispersed.
As these people left, their expressions were complex.
Even though they might have various conflicts and dissatisfactions with the Yu Family, after all, Yu Yuanyi had protected Lingnan for many years with a single sword.
The fall of the Sword Immortal today still evoked endless emotions.
In contrast, it was Xue An who, with an extremely domineering posture, suppressed everyone and dominated Lingnan.
Everyone understood that the skies of Lingnan had changed!
Many people also stole glances at Xue An before they left, wondering if they could curry favor with him now.
However, one person was now trembling all over, not even daring to lift his head.
Indeed, it was Yang Xudong.
His heart was filled with regret and fear.
If he had known how formidable Xue An was, he wouldn’t have dared to provoke him even if it killed him.
Now he could only silently pray in his heart, hoping that Xue An had already forgotten about him.
Xue An certainly remembered him, but simply couldn’t be bothered with such an insect-like existence.
He picked up his two daughters and turned to leave.
It wasn’t until he had left that all the members of the Yu Family finally let out a sigh of relief.
Yu Lang, with a grief-stricken face, picked up the broken wooden sword, the only thing Yu Yuanyi had left behind.
Everyone was silent.
A heavy atmosphere weighed on everyone’s hearts.
Yu Ran let out a deep sigh, her heart filled with indescribable feelings.
This man had first attracted her with his mystery, but in the end, he conquered her family with his powerful strength.
At that moment, Yu Ming, with a fierce expression, said, “I must avenge the ancestor in the future…”
Slap!
A slap left Yu Ming stunned.
“Father, why did you hit me?”
Yu Lang, with an ashen face, looked at him, “I slapped you to wake you up. The opportunity that the ancestor fought to his death to win for us, cannot be wasted by you.”
Yu Ming was still somewhat rebellious.
But Yu Lang let out a long sigh and said, “If it weren’t for the ancestor trapping that man with his words at the end, do you think he would have spared our Yu Family?”
Yu Ming was silent.
“And even if he did spare us, who knows how many are coveting our Yu Family in the shadows, only refraining from acting because the ancestor was here. Now that the ancestor is gone, they will bare their fangs. Do you think, with just the two of us, we can support this vast Yu Family?”
Yu Ming’s face turned pale.
Yu Lang lowered his eyes, his voice filled with sorrow, “I hate him more than anyone, but I’m also clear that if the Yu Family wants to continue to exist, we can only submit to him!”
Yu Lang was indeed fit to be the Family Head. Although he was initially emotional, he quickly perceived the situation.
Then Yu Lang lifted his head to look at his daughter, Yu Ran.
Yu Ran felt nervous under her father’s gaze.
“Ran’er, how do you know Mr. Xue?”
Yu Ran roughly recounted the experience.
Having listened, Yu Lang remained silent for a while, then said, “I understand. From now on, you don’t need to worry about the family. Stay close to Mr. Xue more often!”
Yu Ran was taken aback.
Father… what does this mean?
Yu Ming clenched his teeth, looking down in silence.
“Will he… stay in Lingnan for a long time?” Yu Ran asked timidly.
“Not for the time being, at least, he will wait until after the Immortal Gate conference concludes before leaving,” Yu Lang said softly.
The one you’re looking for, will he appear at the Immortal Gate conference? Yu Lang wondered to himself.
After a busy day, Tan Xiaoyu took out her phone and opened the martial arts forum.
This had become her daily routine.
And now, she had also gained a small reputation on the martial arts forum.
Many people knew that she was not only a girl but also the heir to the Beijiang Martial Gym.
These two identities had earned her quite a few fans.
But in the past two days, Tan Xiaoyu had been somewhat restless,
because Xue An had left Beijiang four or five days ago.
And today was the seventh day.
His words about slaying the Yu Family with his sword, would it really happen?
Tan Xiaoyu was filled with worry.
After all, this time was different from the past solo fights; this time, it was one man against a whole martial arts family.
And when she opened the forum, Tan Xiaoyu was stunned.
Because the top post was one that stood out.
“Sword Immortal Yu Yuanyi dies by a broken sword, Mr. Xue reigns over Lingnan, just how high is his cultivation level?”
This startling title was also bolded in black, exceptionally eye-catching.
Tan Xiaoyu took a deep breath and clicked on it with trembling hands.
The post was published by a forum member living in Lingnan, and this person’s literary skills were pretty good, writing about Xue An attending the birthday banquet, then overpowering the Yu Family Head Yu Lang, defeating Yu Ming with a single sword stroke, and killing Yu Yuanyi with his fists in an exciting and spectacular narrative.
Tan Xiaoyu read with an overwhelming emotional surge and, after finishing, she saw that the following comments were uniformly filled with shock.
“Second floor not grabbing the sofa today, because Mr. Xue is awesome.”
“Oh my, the original poster should consider writing novels, it’s such a waste of talent not to! Mr. Xue is indeed awesome!”
“I’ve said it before, Mr. Xue isn’t someone ordinary, you guys just wouldn’t believe it!”
“Third floor is just spouting nonsense, your posting history clearly shows you were not optimistic about this action.”
“Does anyone know Mr. Xue’s contact information? I want him as a mentor, waiting online!”
“Same here, I’m willing to pay a million in tuition fees!”
“Wow, a tycoon spotted above!”
“Tycoon my ass, a million just to have Mr. Xue as a mentor? He’s someone who can annihilate Half-step Longevity beings, a million probably wouldn’t even get you a glance from him.”
This post soared to the top of the hot search list within just over an hour.
At this moment, Tan Xiaoyu was also excitedly leaving a comment.
“Thumbs up for Mr. Xue!”
It wasn’t long before someone responded to her.
“Holy crap, look what I’ve caught?”
“Little sister Xiaoyu, you’ve finally shown up, I’ve missed you!”
“Shameless guy above!”
“Xiaoyu, I heard that you’re also from Beijiang, do you know Mr. Xue?”
“Right! I remember little sister Xiaoyu once said she knew Mr. Xue!”
“My goodness! Hurry and latch onto those coattails!”
“Pervert, but I want to latch on too!”
Tan Xiaoyu, who found the whole thing both amusing and mortifying, thought for a moment and replied.
“Of course, I know Mr. Xue!”
As she wrote this, Tan Xiaoyu suddenly felt, oh so proud!
