Angering the Huangfu Family

Deafening laughter spread across the front of the Huangfu family estate, unbridled and full of mockery.

No one believed what Mo Tianxiao said.

The highest cultivation level among the three was merely at the Profound Comprehension Realm. How could such existences, such mere ants, possibly have the qualifications to meet the Palace Master of the Yaochi Heavenly Palace, the universally acknowledged number one person in the entire Eastern Region?

Mo Tianxiao looked at the ugly faces of the Huangfu family members, a fierce smirk curling at the corner of his mouth.

Anyway, his identity had already been announced. As for whether the Huangfu family believed it or not, that was none of his business.

"Little friend Li Yu, you indeed possess extraordinary courage. To be able to fabricate such a monstrous lie without even blinking an eye, this old man truly admires you."

Huangfu Cheng wore a faint smile on his face, his tone filled with ridicule.

He wasn't lying; this was the most arrogant and daring young man he had ever seen.

Although he hadn't figured out the other party's exact origins, it no longer mattered. No matter what background the other party had, it was of no consequence.

Because there was no faction in this world more formidable than the Huangfu family.

Even a top-tier faction like the Yaochi Heavenly Palace was at most on equal footing with the Huangfu family, not at a level where they could rule over them.

"I can give you a chance. Make a Heavenly Dao oath to serve my Huangfu family for all eternity and become Yunteng's right-hand man, and I will spare your life. I can even provide you with resources and heavily cultivate you. As for these two young ladies, I can leave them untouched. How about it?"

As soon as Huangfu Cheng said this, everyone's expressions changed. The ugliest faces belonged to Huangfu Yunteng's lackeys and the members of the Zi family.

"The Huangfu family actually isn't going to kill Brother Li Yu, and they even want to heavily cultivate him to be Huangfu Yunteng's right-hand man?!"

"Isn't this plot twist a bit too outrageous? Doesn't that mean Huangfu Yunteng got beaten up for nothing, and even wasted a Saint-grade pill!"

"Is it possible that Brother Li Yu's future value far exceeds this Saint-grade pill?"

The surrounding cultivators were utterly shocked by Huangfu Cheng's words. They had originally thought the three were dead for sure, but now came an earth-shattering reversal. The Huangfu family actually wanted to recruit this rogue cultivator who had brutally beaten Huangfu Yunteng?

However, thinking carefully, it made sense.

As a top-tier aristocratic family, the Huangfu family's foresight was absolutely incomparable to ordinary factions. Being able to defeat Huangfu Yunteng at the same cultivation realm already proved that this rogue cultivator was far from simple.

If they could take him under their wing, it would be pure profit without a single loss.

Not only that, as long as they brought him into the Huangfu family, everything he had, including his Saint-grade weapons, cultivation techniques, and even his very person, would belong to the Huangfu family.

They would take every advantage and end up with a good reputation to boot.

This method could be described as killing multiple birds with one stone.

And all the Huangfu family would have lost was a single Saint-grade pill.

However, Huangfu Yunteng was exceptionally furious, his eyes bloodshot. "Uncle! I don't want any right-hand man! I want him dead!"

During that one minute just now, his True Dragon Physique had completely vanished, causing a deep-seated fear of Mo Tianxiao to take root in his heart. It was a fear of the unknown.

It felt as if the other party could take away everything he had at any moment. How could he possibly allow such a person to remain by his side?

Huangfu Cheng ignored Huangfu Yunteng's shouting. He was also just acting on orders; there were quite a few old monsters above him calling the shots.

Quietly watching Mo Tianxiao and the other two, Huangfu Cheng continued, "Have you thought it through? With the help of my Huangfu family, your future achievements will be limitless, and all you need to offer in return is your loyalty to the Huangfu family."

Trading loyalty for a bright future was, in his opinion, a very worthwhile deal.

"Hahahaha..."

A soft chuckle escaped Mo Tianxiao's lips, his contemptuous gaze landing squarely on Huangfu Cheng. "That's a good one, you actually made me laugh."

"So this is the extent of your Huangfu family's capability. No wonder you treat a piece of trash like Huangfu Yunteng as a treasure. It turns out your Huangfu family is running out of capable people."

His voice was chilling to the bone, piercing fiercely into the ears of everyone present like steel needles.

"It's fine, I'm a generous person. I'm willing to offer one hundred spirit stones to buy out your Huangfu family. From now on, your Huangfu family members can act as my dogs, and I'll reward you with some bones to chew on.

I guarantee that as long as I live for a day, there will be a day's worth of bones for your Huangfu family to gnaw. How about it? This is a pretty good bargain, right?"

These familiar words were strung together and spoken, reaching the ears of everyone, including those big shots hiding in the shadows. One by one, they couldn't help but widen their eyes in absolute disbelief!

As soon as this was said, it was like a bomb dropping into a calm lake, instantly setting off monstrous waves. The sheer audacity of his words blew everyone away!

How could someone be so arrogant!

How could someone court death to this extent!

The surroundings instantly fell into absolute silence, so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.

Looking at this extremely arrogant man, no one even dared to breathe heavily.

They were convinced, truly convinced.

The combined courage of everyone present probably wasn't even worth a single hair on this man's head.

With one sentence, he had cursed the entire Huangfu family as dogs, and with one sentence, he had insulted this family with tens of thousands of years of heritage to the absolute limit.

They had never seen such a brave man. The Huangfu family had stood in the Immortal City for tens of thousands of years, possessing terrifying foundations and strength on par with the Yaochi Heavenly Palace.

No one had ever dared to humiliate such an ancient faction like this, at least not that they had ever seen.

Even the Yaochi Heavenly Palace wouldn't be this arrogant.

"Hahahahaha!!!"

Huangfu Yunteng suddenly burst into extremely sinister and maniacal laughter, his face twisting like an evil spirit as he screamed hoarsely, "Li Yu!! You are courting death! No one can save you!!"

The moment the other party uttered those words, his fate had been sealed.

No one could insult the Huangfu family like this, not even if the other party was truly an elder of the Yaochi Heavenly Palace!!

Huangfu Cheng's gaze had darkened to the extreme, and his heavy killing intent forced all the surrounding cultivators to retreat dozens of miles.

"Good, good, good."

Three words of good, low and hoarse.

Huangfu Cheng stared dead at Mo Tianxiao and the other two, the fury igniting in his eyes enough to burn everyone present to ashes.

The mighty Saintly Might radiating from his body seemed to turn him into Satan from hell, causing cultivators within a radius of hundreds of miles to feel an extreme chill.

Zi Ling'er and Lin Nannan trembled in fear under Huangfu Cheng's gaze. The two of them hugged Mo Tianxiao tightly and squeezed their eyes shut.

"Since you are unwilling, then the three of you can be dogs for the rest of your lives. I will preserve your souls and chain them up, forever chaining them to the front gates of the Huangfu family estate, making you guard the doors for the Huangfu family for all eternity.

This... will be your honor!"

A bone-piercing chill enveloped the three of them. The extreme killing intent made them unable to move their bodies, and the terrifying Saintly Might pressed down on them until their bones creaked.

"To dare insult the Huangfu family, go to hell!!"

Huangfu Cheng suddenly raised his hand, and the majestic Saintly Might erupted with a bang. That was a power that did not belong to the mortal realm, transcending spiritual energy, it was the power of Saint Essence, thousands, if not tens of thousands of times stronger.

A terrifying giant hand condensed from the power of Saint Essence descended from the thick clouds, blocking out the sky and covering the sunlight, just like the descent of the apocalypse.

The surrounding cultivators wore expressions of absolute terror, fleeing desperately for their lives, deathly afraid of being caught in the shockwave of this colossal palm strike and perishing!

Lin Wuya fell to both knees, his eyes wide and glaring with fury, as he roared in a hoarse voice: "Nannan!!"

At this moment, Mo Tianxiao had already tightly gripped a jade stone in his hand. Withstanding the oppressive might of the Saint Realm and facing the giant palm that was about to crash down, he roared anxiously: "Aunt Lin! If you don't make your move now, I quit!"
