After connecting to the Formation God Tower of Crystal City, all of them soon obtained information about Ye Xiao. Gu Yeman, the president of the Crystal City branch of Formation God Tower explained everything in detail.
It turned out that what Ye Xiao said was true. He indeed became a Level 3 Formation Master in just three months. It was shocking.
Knowing the truth, Gu Tianhao no longer hesitated and immediately accepted Ye Xiao’s challenge.
Old Hu was sent to bring Ye Xiao to the President’s Room where Gu Tianhao promised Ye Xiao that even if not a Level 5 Formation Master, as long as he could become a Level Formation Master, he will permit Ye Xiao to use the Great Teleportation Formation anytime he wants.
As for the person responsible for teaching, Gu Tianhao decided to teach Ye Xiao personally.
The matter was settled just like that.
Now, Ye Xiao only had three months of time to become a Level 5 Formation Master.
…..
While Ye Xiao started learning the formations under Gu Tianhao’s guidance, in the Cloudy Star Region, there was a city called Fresh Breeze City which was located at the border of a wilderness.
Around the Fresh Breeze City, there were also tens of small and large towns and villages. Although in the eyes of the overlord forces of the Cloudy Star Region, the Fresh Breeze City was as small as a grain of rice, and could be ignored, there was one thing worth visiting this city. That was the floating mountain in the clouds.
Fresh Breeze City covered dozens of miles of area. There were four influential families in this city. There were various taverns, teahouses, and shops under the control of the Four Great Families, and they were all in charge of managing the entire Fresh Breeze City.
Wu Family was one of the Four Major Cities.
Currently, inside Wu Family’s house…
“Hit him! Hit him ruthlessly! F*ck, he actually dared to glare at me! He must be tired of living!” A wave of curses suddenly sounded out from a corner of the Wu Family’s courtyard.
In the corner of a house, three to four youths could be seen beating and kicking another youth while cursing from time to time.
Besides the crowd, there was a twenty to twenty-three years old youth. He had a face full of disdain as he commanded the other youths to punch and kick the youth on the ground.
The beaten youth held his head and curled up on the ground. He didn’t move at all and didn’t resist. He tried his best to protect the most important part of his body, as if he was on the verge of death.
“You are just a servant of my Wu Family. How dare a lowly trash like you glare at me, Wu Hao? You deserve only one outcome; death. Hit him, hit him hard until he can’t get up today.”
At this time, Wu Ming, another young man, hurriedly stood up, pointed at the young man on the ground, swallowed his saliva, and said, “Hao? Brother Hao, Ning Xuan, he, he seems to have been beaten to death by us. ”
“What? Dead?”
Wu Hao was startled. He pushed Wu Ming away and quickly walked toward the young man. After he confirmed that the young man was not breathing, his face also became pale as he muttered: “He really died.”
Beating a person to death was not a small matter. For Wu Family, who followed the law and viewed the rules as the first, this was even more so a big matter.
Wu Family has a few family rules. One of them was that people of the Wu Family are not allowed to fight amongst themselves and take revenge on others. Otherwise, they will be severely punished, and even those who are important members will be kicked out of the family. .𝘤𝘰𝑚
It was already wrong for Wu Hao and the rest to look for trouble to beat them up, but killing someone was even worse than breaking the rules, how could they not be afraid?
To be honest, Wu Hao only wanted to teach Ning Xuan, this trash who appeared in their family out of nowhere and started working as a servant, a lesson. But he didn’t actually want to beat Ning Xuan to death. Who knew that Ning Xuan would be so careless that he accidentally beat Ning Xuan to death?
Seeing Wu Hao not saying a word, Wu Ming anxiously said: “Brother Hao, what do we do? If Family Head finds out about this, we would be dead.”
“What are you panicking for?” Although Wu Hao was also nervous, he was more focused than Wu Ming. He fiercely glared at Wu Ming, and after pondering for a moment, he said: “How about this, you two throw him into the abyss at the back of the mountain.”
“Ah? This… Is that okay?” Wu Ming was stunned for a moment before he replied with a grin.
“Since everyone is dead, what’s wrong with it? Don’t tell me you want my father to know about this?” After pausing for a moment, Wu Hao continued, “Throw him into the demon valley. No one is allowed to spread this matter. Everyone had to guard this matter closely. Otherwise, they will be punished by the family.
Hearing Wu Hao’s words, Wu Ming secretly clenched his teeth, and nodded his head, following that he commanded the others to carry Ning Xuan’s “corpse” to the back of the mountain.
The rear mountains belonged to the Wu Family’s forbidden grounds. Normally, the disciples of the Wu Family would not come here, but the Abyss was a forbidden area.
Following Wu Hao’s instructions, Wu Ming and the others secretly carried Ning Xuan into the forbidden grounds and then threw him into the demon valley.
After that, they turned around and left.
On the other hand, there was a lake in the deep valley. Layers of cold air floated above the lake. In the sky above the cold air, there was a dense white fog that blocked the view of the sky.
Aside from the lake, everything around was dark, completely dark. At the edge of the lake, Ning Xuan, who was motionlessly lying, suddenly took a deep breath and started coughing.
After gasping for breath a few times, he finally calmed his throbbing heart. His eyes were completely red. He raised his head and looked above with hatred.
“Wu Han, I’ll definitely kill you. Do you think I would have become a servant of the Wu Family if not for Holy Crystal? As long as I can obtain the Holy Crystal, all suffering is worth it. But the humiliation you gave me can not be forgiven. There is also that Ling Xiaolong of Illusory Spirit Gate. If I want to match him in terms of talent, I have to obtain the Holy Crystal. Only then can I go and challenge him.”
His eyes flashed with scarlet light.
It turned out that Ning Xuan was not dead, he was just holding his breath. He did not even move when he was thrown into the Demon Valley.
To make those people above believe that he is dead, he did not even control his falling and let his body directly land on the ground. This caused him to suffer some injuries.
Fortunately, the ground where he landed was near the lake. It was not solid and had the property of a swamp. This is what saved him from suffering heavy injuries.
“Where is this place by the way?” Ning Xuan squinted his eyes and looked at the darkness in front of him as he muttered to himself.
Because of the darkness, he did not dare to go around. Instead, he looked at the crystal clear water of the lake.
In this darkness, only this lake was shining brightly.
“There must be a reason why this lake is shining!” Ning Xuan muttered and then jumped into the lake.
Not long after, he came out of the lake and started laughing loudly. In his hand, a newborn baby-sized green crystal could be seen.
“I did not expect the Wu Family to hide the Holy Crystal at the depth of this lake which exists in the demon valley where no one dares to come. It is no wonder no one has been able to find the Holy Crystal for the last ten thousand years even after invading the Wu Family. I’m really lucky! Hahahaha!”
“Wu Han, I really want to see your expression when you realize you’ve become the reason for the disappearance of the Holy Crystal!”
Suddenly, his face stiffened as if he thought of something. He waved his hand and a spiritual energy gathered to form a face in the air.
“Ling Xiaolong!”
Ning Xuan gritted his teeth and muttered in hatred as he looked at the face.
There is only one Ling Xiaolong in the Illusory Spirit Gate, and that is Ye Xiao.
As for the reason why this person called Ning Xuan was targeting Ye Xiao, it is a mystery.
