Chapter 436: I\'ll Take You Across the Path of Immortality
Seeing his eldest son in such a dire state, Yuan Zhantian\'s eyes flickered with a hint of gloom.
Yuan Fu was very sensible and helped Yuan Wu to his feet.
"It\'s so noisy outside, has something happened?" Yuan Wu asked.
"Something big has happened." Yuan Fu then recounted the series of events to his brother.
"..." Hearing this, Yuan Wu frowned deeply.
"Brother, are you thinking this was Yun Xiao? He went to the Jade Immortal Tower today, and his path overlapped with those who died." Yuan Fu whispered.
"This kid was nothing special in the Nine Hells; others haven\'t seen what he did there, but our second brother and I saw everything clearly!"
Yuan Wu looked up at Yuan Zhantian, "Dad, I suggest you go back to the Sky Source Ruins and warn everyone. If there are no clues, we must investigate the Nine Hells thoroughly, find everyone related to him, and specifically investigate whether he has the ability to control souls!"
"The Three Immortals forbid anyone from entering the Nine Hells," Yuan Zhantian said.
"What are we talking about rules for at a time like this? You just need to report back to the Sky Source Ruins. Whether or not they investigate is their business!" Yuan Wu said passionately.
He spoke so vehemently that the newly grown half of his tender tongue began to bleed, causing him pain that made him grimace. Thinking of Yun Xiao, his heart was filled with a surge of hatred, and his eyes turned blood red!
"Brother, you\'re just overestimating him because you hate him too much," Yuan Fu said weakly.
"Shut up," Yuan Wu glared at his brother with angry eyes.
"Stop arguing." Yuan Zhantian looked at Yuan Wu; seeing his son in such pain, as a father, his heart was also bleeding. So, he said, "I\'ll go back to the Sky Source Ruins right away."
KNOCK! KNOCK! Just as he finished speaking, someone knocked on the door.
The rules of the Three Immortals\' shadow agents were to act quietly and unobtrusively, so knocking without shouting or calling out was actually quite normal.
"Come in," Yuan Zhantian said casually.
CREAK! In the dead of night, the door to the dark room opened, and a white figure walked in, then turned around to close the door.
"Who is it?" Yuan Fu looked over impatiently.
"I heard someone calling my name." After closing the door, Yun Xiao turned around, a smile on his face as he looked at the father and his two sons.
"Damn!" Yuan Wu shivered, and though he had no limbs, he almost jumped out of bed.
"Hm?" Yuan Fu thought he had seen wrong and rubbed his eyes.
Yuan Zhantian\'s pupils contracted, his face creased with a mix of murderous intent and confusion in his eyes.
The three of them exchanged looks!
Yuan Zhantian signaled them not to act rashly.
In the dead silence, Yun Xiao stepped forward to face them. To the unknowing, they might seem like old friends.
"Yuan Wu, I heard you talking just now outside," Yun Xiao said, looking at him coldly.
"So what if I did?" Yuan Wu said, glancing at his father, a Martial Cultivator who could, at such close range, capture Yun Xiao in an instant.
"Yuan Zhantian, you\'re quite bold," Yun Xiao then glared at Yuan Zhantian and coldly said, "Didn\'t I warn you not to heal him? And yet you helped him grow his tongue back?"
Yuan Zhantian stared intently at Yun Xiao with his dark golden eyes, not answering Yun Xiao\'s question but instead asking in a deep voice, "You followed us here? Why?"
While speaking, Yuan Zhantian occasionally glanced outside, naturally suspecting Yun Xiao had many people with him, which was why he dared not make any rash moves.
"Tang Wenqian committed suicide, and you three descendants of the Three Immortals were the quickest to appear at the base of the Jade Immortal Tower, indicating you were stationed nearby," Yun Xiao said in a ghostly voice.
"So what?" Underneath his sleeve, Yuan Zhantian clenched his fists, his body angled to shield his two sons.
"The day I entered the Jade Immortal Tower, someone quickly killed a few children and pinned it on me. Since this is your territory, it must have been you, right?" Yun Xiao raised an eyebrow.
"Hehehehe..." Yuan Zhantian\'s fierce face let out a cold laugh, saying, "You\'ve prepared a little Projection Art? Planning to clear your name? Sorry, you\'ve come to the wrong place. Everyone in the Primordial Ruins saw it; you killed the children! You better take your people and leave."
Yun Xiao laughed too. When he asked the question, he already had his answer in mind and didn\'t need Yuan Zhantian to respond.
"You worry too much; there are none of my people outside," Yun Xiao said.
"Hehehehe." The three of them, father and sons, shrugged and laughed together.
Who was he kidding? No one around, and yet Yun Xiao dared to talk to an elder with such an attitude, up close to their face?
"Though no one\'s here, I did bring something for you." As he spoke, Yun Xiao pulled out a black Giant Bag of Holding from his chest, a bag that was clearly out of the ordinary.
The father and his sons didn\'t dare to move rashly, staring intently at Yun Xiao.
Unperturbed, Yun Xiao reached into the Bag of Holding, rummaging as if searching for something.
WHOOSH! He pulled out a bone emanating immense demonic energy.
"A Calamity Bone?" The eyes of the father and sons trembled, their breathing grew heavy.
"Sorry, got the wrong item; I have too many things." Yun Xiao said, continuing to frown as he searched in the Bag of Holding, pulling out a divine treasure of immense majesty.
"The Eastern Divinity Mirror!" The eyes of Yuan Zhantian and his sons reddened. How could this young man possess such treasures!
"Dad, that Eastern Divinity Mirror even has its packaging intact, with the price tag..." Yuan Fu whispered to his father with a frown.
"Too many treasures, grabbed the wrong one again." Yun Xiao shook his head with a wry smile. He stuffed the Eastern Divinity Mirror back in, rummaged again, and then pulled out a handful of golden nuggets.
"Sunstone!" Yuan Wu exclaimed in shock.
"Dad, that\'s a material of the Yang grade..." Yuan Fu said with a trembling voice.
"How embarrassing, wrong again." Yun Xiao put it back again, continuing to search while casting a deep look at the father and sons.
Yuan Zhantian\'s eyes suddenly widened, and he exclaimed, "These are treasures from the Jade Immortal Tower\'s VIP area!"
"How could they be in his hands?" Yuan Wu\'s eyes went wide with disbelief.
"Dad, that\'s the Giant Bag of Holding from the Jade Immortal Tower..." Yuan Fu stepped back, his voice hoarse.
The three of them looked at Yun Xiao, their hearts trembling.
Yun Xiao, ignoring their inner turmoil, reached into the Bag of Holding again and pulled out a black box, then smiled at Yuan Zhantian, saying, "Finally found it."
Yun Xiao opened the black box and grabbed something inside.
What was it? The father and his two sons looked intently.
"A Sword Heart?!" They were instantly shocked! Despite the shock, Yuan Zhantian managed to remain calm.
The release of a Sword Heart required time, and even lineage. At such close range, why would he fear the Sword Heart?
"This youngster is the mastermind behind tonight\'s major case!" Yuan Zhantian was terrified upon this realization!
In that moment of shock, he suddenly punched towards Yun Xiao\'s face.
BOOM! Yun Xiao extended his left hand, with inscriptions forming a nine-headed dragon vortex on his palm, suddenly absorbing Yuan Zhantian\'s punch!
"Sorry, I\'m not the same person I was three days ago," Yun Xiao smiled. Three days ago, not to mention Yuan Zhantian, even Yuan Wu could have killed him with one punch!
And now, he was taking a punch from Yuan Zhantian, in the Five Decays Realm, head-on!
"Your palm doesn\'t have the Blood Bat Curse?"
In that moment of shock, Yuan Zhantian saw something even more unbelievable.
"Heh." This time, it was Yun Xiao\'s turn to sneer. As he sneered, his Heaven Burial Sword Soul had already devoured the Sword Heart, and a dark azure storm, along with 500,000 layers of Sword Aura, erupted explosively.
STAB! Yun Xiao caught Yuan Zhantian\'s punch, and with his right hand, he thrust his sword, as fast as a flash of light and as fierce as a dragon!
"Ugh…" Yuan Zhantian\'s arm was equipped with a steel gauntlet treasure, which he used in a bid to grab Yun Xiao\'s sword!
The sword pierced through his palm, the dark azure storm instantly tearing open his flesh, the Sword Soul piercing through his arm, and penetrating Yuan Zhantian\'s heart!
"No!" In that moment, Yuan Zhantian finally understood. This youngster really had no one behind him! He had come alone to kill!
The most terrifying realization was that all of these deeds were carried out by this man alone!
"Too bad, you realized too late," Yun Xiao said with a smile.
SIZZLE! SIZZLE! SIZZLE! Yuan Zhantian looked at him with eyes full of despair, then his entire being was devoured by the dark azure storm, turning into ash. Not even bones were left!
"Dad!" Yuan Wu and Yuan Fu were utterly devastated!
PUFF! Just as Yuan Fu was about to scream, a sword swept across his neck, silencing him abruptly.
THUD! The head and body that hit the floor were incinerated separately.
"Yun——!"
PUFF! Before Yuan Wu could finish his sentence, the tip of a three-foot-long sword pierced his mouth, piercing through his tongue again.
"MRMPHH! AKGHH!!" Yuan Wu, biting down on the Sword Soul, widened his eyes in sheer misery and fear, with dark azure smoke emerging from the edges of his mouth, looking at Yun Xiao in terror.
"I said no healing that tongue, so why did you speak out of turn again?" Yun Xiao looked at him with a smile.
"MMM HRREE TRUU IMMRTAHLS WILL MMMAKE YUU SUHFER A TERRBBLE DEHTH!!!" Half of Yuan Wu\'s face was devoured by the dark azure storm, unable to even scream, only his eyes showing his rage and despair.
"Are you trying to say that the Three True Immortals will make me suffer a terrible death?" Yun Xiao asked.
Yuan Wu, biting the Heaven Burial Sword Soul, nodded furiously.
"Alright then." After saying this, Yun Xiao\'s sword pierced through him.
Yuan Wu died!
However, in his final moments, Yun Xiao used a small talisman to capture his soul.
"I once said I wanted you to watch everything I do in the Primordial Ruins with wide eyes. Now, even though you\'re dead, it doesn\'t matter. Your remnant soul can still follow me and continue watching!
"This is just the intermission; the real climax is yet to come. You must watch closely, Yuan Wu."
Yuan Wu\'s remnant soul fell into deep despair, trembling continuously.
"All four of you, father and sons, are despicable, wasting my Sword Heart!" Yun Xiao sneered coldly, cleared the scene of the ashes, and left.
All was silent. Returning to the courtyard, Yun Xiao saw a few blood-stained pieces of white cloth in the corner. He paused for a moment, then went forward to carefully wrap them up.
He didn\'t put pieces of cloth into the Bag of Holding but kept them close to his chest, right against his heart! Touching his chest, he whispered, "Let\'s go, I\'ll take you across the path of immortality."
