"I…"
"Go to hell!"
Being tired of his nonsense, Yun Che performed the thunder snake and aimed at Liu Xizhao's head. The latter's eyes narrowed. Suddenly, he recalled what the shadow had said to him, so he closed his eyes and shouted, "I agree! I agree!"
"Who is this?"
The next second, the shadow condensed into something gradually. Yun Che was about to kill Liu Xizhao, but now he raised his head. Liu Xizhao seemed to sense hope, reaching out his hand toward the shadow and shouted, "I'm willing to be your slave! Please, help! Help me!"
Under such circumstances, dignity was the last thing he would think of. As long as he could live, he would love to become a slave, a dog even.
"Who are you?"
Somehow, Yun Che had a very bad feeling, fixing his sharp eyes on the shadow, which had almost condensed in the shape of a man.
"So, you are the owner of the Parallel Space, in your Nascent Soul Stage, superfunction possessor, phase 7. Haha, still, you are too weak. This man belongs to me."
The shadow didn't seem to hear Yun Che's question, mocking him as if he meant nothing.
"Right!"
"Bang!"
Yun Cheng and the rest of the team wanted to help immediately, but the shadow turned around and seemed to take a look at them. Suddenly, explosions sounded. Even Yun Cheng who was already in phase 10 was forced to step back. Xing Feng and the others even staggered and almost fell to the ground. When they tried to gather their power and fight against the shadow, they were shocked to realize that their powers were forbidden to use even if they could sense them. All of them were astonished and firmly believed that the shadow was a big threat.
"You want his life? Maybe in your next life."
"Ahhhh!"
"What?"
Even if the shadow had said much to insult Yun Che, the latter was not discouraged. On the contrary, Yun Che watched and waved his broadsword. In front of the shadow, he forcibly cut off Liu Xizhao's head before the shadow could stop him. The latter disappeared once his hands touched the body of the sword. He shrank back with his head against the sword, probably considering why it could bring damage to him.
"It's your turn."
Seeing all these, Yun Che put the broadsword straight against the shadow, but the latter faded soon, "It's not time yet."
The shadow then disappeared before Yun Che could attack it one more time.
"F*ck!"
Yun Che cursed in annoyance. The rest came over, "Our superfunctions seemed to have been suppressed just now."
"He's not a superfunction possessor. I'm afraid he is the owner of Earth or a subordinate of his."
Yun Che analyzed gloomily. He had checked the air panel when the shadow first showed up and confirmed there were no exact light spots on it. Besides, the shadow not only knew his identity but also mentioned his cultivation skills and exact phase. He couldn't think of anyone else except the owner of Earth.
"Damn it!"
If it were true, it would be strange if they were not suppressed. Just like what Yun Che meant to the demon beasts, they couldn't even resist.
"Leave him alone. Our priority is to find Gao Wei. It's only reasonable that he took Heiyu and Chenchen."
Despite all the messy thoughts and assumptions, Yun Che turned around and was ready to leave. What mattered now was to find Heiyu and Chenchen instead of wondering if the one was the owner of Earth.
"Okay. What about them?"
Realizing how serious it was, Xing Feng and others didn't argue with him. Before leaving, Xing Feng pointed at Zhu Ping and the rest who were frightened to death and asked. Yun Che's eyes went cold, "Kill them all!"
Anyone related to Liu Xizhao should die! They deserved nothing better.
"Bang!"
Zhu Ping and those next to him squealed out of fear, but Yun Cheng smashed them with a light ball. Soon, the world became quiet again. Before leaving, Fei Ye went back to the room and took away the camera. What Yun Che had done here could not be exposed, so he couldn't leave the camera here.
Within two hours, the Lin family and the Liu family were butchered in their homes one after another. All the big families of Section A were shocked by how ruthless they were. Ever since Yun Che and his team showed up in the capital, they had kept humble except for the mess on the wedding day and the great achievements the members of Peak had made in Superfunction Association. The leaders of these large families could tell that all Yun Che had wanted was to defeat Liu Xizhao and had never had any intention to start a slaughter. But somehow, they were furious and did this all of a sudden. Everyone knew that something bad must have happened behind this. So, after careful thinking, the leaders of other families called Senior Xing one after another.
"Damn bastard! Stop your tears! Liu Xizhao asked for this!"
Hanging up the phone, Xiao Guoquan glared at Xiao Lan and her daughter Liu Yuan in a rage. When it first happened, he had wanted to save Liu Xizhao's life, considering they had become a family for decades. But what Senior Xing and Senior Mo had just told him made him pissed. He didn't consider himself a good man, but he felt it shameless that Liu Xizhao had tried to kill women and kids. Therefore, he couldn't bear asking for mercy from Senior Xing.
"Dad, what happened?"
Looking at Xiao Lan and Liu Yuan, Xiao Qian, the eldest son of Xiao Guoquan, came forward and asked. Even until now, they still felt it hard to accept what Liu Xizhao had done. But when he heard that Yun Che and Xing Feng had killed all their way to the Liu family, he still couldn't bear it.
"What else could it be? Everyone in the Liu family was killed. Liu Xizhao, his head was cut off by Yun Che directly."
"What?"
Xiao Guoquan stood up all of a sudden. Xiao Qian couldn't stop his mouth from opening while Xiao Lan and her daughter even forgot to cry. After a long while, Xiao Guoquan explained in a low voice, "He did this to himself. According to Wanxin and Shiyan, he had tried repeatedly to kill Yun Che and his team. He even ordered directly that he wanted Yun Yao and her son dead. Yun Che had endured him for long. Today, taking the advantage that Yun Che and other superfunction possessors were all out for voting, someone went to his home and almost killed all women and kids in the family. Also, they kidnapped a little boy. Lan, Yuan, don't you try to revenge him or blame others for showing no mercy. He led his way to death."
Xiao Guoquan was kind of outrageous at ordinary times, but he also knew when to become reasonable. Putting himself in Yun Che's shoes, he believed he might make it a worse condition.
"It's all because of me!"
Liu Yuan felt worse and cried out loud when she heard this. Despite all this, Liu Xizhao was still her father even if she could never understand why he had done that.
"Because of you? Humph, don't flatter yourself. He was just trying to get himself a good son-in-law so that he could have a better heir."
Xiao Guoquan snorted and strode away. Xiao Qian walked him to the door and then returned, "Xiao Lan, Yuan, Dad is right. You'd better not think about revenge. Now that Liu Xizhao had done this to himself, we can't afford to bring our family in trouble as well. Because if that really happens, we wouldn't be able to keep you two safe."
There were hundreds of people in the Xiao family as well. But the last thing they would do was to risk all they had now for a daughter. On the contrary, if Xiao Lan and Liu Yuan dared do anything to get the family involved, the latter would abandon them immediately.
"I understand, brother. I don't love him as much I did as well. It's just, he was my husband after all. Could you please do me a favor and let us bury him? Consider it the last thing I could do for him."
Wiping her tears away, Xiao Lan pledged. Since the day she followed her father's instruction and divorced Liu Xizhao, she has had no feeling for him ever since. She only sobbed for him for old time's sake.
"Uncle, please! We just want to bury him."
Liu Yuan took the chance and grasped Xiao Qian's hand. She was too well protected like a princess for so long and had no idea how to even start revenge. Actually, she was still blaming herself for this.
"Hum, alright, I'll ask Dad if this is okay. As you know, Yun Che is not worth fearing. But the Xing family, the Tan family, and the Mo family behind him, we can't afford to offend them all."
Xiao Qian sighed heavily. The capital was not a free land for the Xiao family after all.
"Thank you, brother!"
"Thank you, uncle!"
The two nodded with tears. They knew that Xiao Qian had been nice to them all the time. None of the others would even let them stay, not to mention taking the trouble to help bury the body.
Yun Che and the rest of the team left the Liu family and went directly to the courtyard Gao Wei had lived in. Unfortunately, the place was empty and they had all gone. Recalling that Lin Hongzhi had asked his family to gather in the East Gate, they rushed there immediately. But all they got was that Guan Yue and his men had captured Lin Hongzhi, but there was no sign of Gao Wei.
"Hypnotize him."
Lin Hongzhi was already frightened, and Yun Che didn't bother to waste time on him. Just as Xing Feng was about to hypnotize him, his phone rang.
"What? Okay, we get it."
Xing Feng's face changed as soon as he heard the news on the phone. After hanging up, he said in a low voice, "Gao Wei had met Liu Xizhao yesterday, saying he had an emergency to deal with in the Northeast Base and asked the latter for two helicopters. It had flown away two hours ago. Grandpa asked around and learned this after he knew we were looking for Gao Wei."
"Cheng, Xingchen, I'll have to leave this mess to you. Feng, Fei Ye, let's chase after them."
No matter it had been two hours or two days, as long as they knew where they were heading, they would go afterwards. Even if they had to go to the Northeast Base, they had to save Heiyu and Chenchen back.
"Che, I want to go with you."
Yun Cheng frowned and felt worried. If they really made it to go to the Northeast Base, he wished he could help, just in case.
"You should stay, Cheng. Don't forget our sister and other members are still home. Since we have slaughtered the Lin family and the Liu family, those in the capital would surely come for a symbolic explanation or something like that. Stay and help Mingxuan. Also, try if you can make an antidote for the depressor. The three of us will be fine. Don't you worry about us."
Yun Che clasped Yun Cheng's shoulder heavily. It was not a rash decision. He had thought it through and believed it was the best solution right now.
"OK, then promise me to come back as long as you save them and don't entangle with Gao Wei. We got enough time to deal with him later. No rush."
Looking him in the eye for a while, Yun Cheng finally compromised and said so. He was afraid that Yun Che might lose his nerve and try to destroy the Northeast Base with Xing Feng and Fei Ye.
"Well, I'm not crazy, brother. All right, we should get going now. Take good care of our family."
Patting him on the shoulder, Yun Che nodded at Xing Feng and Fei Ye. The three of them sat on the backs of the Eagle King and the Eagle Queen and disappeared soon.
"Take him with us! I want him to be tortured like hell!"
Seeing them leaving, Yun Cheng turned around, glared at Lin Hongzhi who was pretending to be dead right now, and enjoined.
"Ouch!"
"Ahhhh!"
As Ye Xingchen snapped his finger, a mutant Tibetan Mastiff bit Lin Hongzhi's waist, the sharp fangs penetrating deeply into his body. Lin Hongzhi screamed in pain, but no one at the scene sympathized with him. The mutant Tibetan mastiff took him like that and followed up with Yun Cheng and the others who had already left. The members of Chaoyang also evacuated from the East Gate in the end.
