Breathing His Last (2)

"Senior Xiu Zhuo, the lord's surname is Yin, he should shoulder the responsibility of the Family." Of course Xinghe knew what Xiu Zhuo was calculating in his heart. Once Yin Jinye inherited the position as the master of Yin Family, Xiu Zhuo and other ghost cultivators could no longer stay by Yin Jinye's side and the sect they had built up would also be gone, or they may even set up a new sect against Yin Jinye. That was what Xiu Zhuo and Yin Yan didn't want to see.

"Fuck his responsibility!" Xiu Zhuo said with disdain, "Since the lord has turned to ghost cultivation, he was only half a Yin member. Believe it or not, once those old men find someone more suitable, they would immediately abandon our lord, or ever kill him for the insult he has brought to the family."

Xinghe, "…"

He is telling the truth.

Yan Qiushuang hurriedly interrupted them, "It's not the time for quarreling here. We should figure out how to save Yi'er now."

Xiu Zhuo said to Yin Jinye, "My lord, if it is really those elders behind this, we should just break in to save him, meanwhile, also to give those elders a blow and let them know that you are no longer that pushover they could bully as they want. Even if it's not them behind this, we should at least let Nine Void Sect know the young master has his back!"

Yan Qiushuang said approvingly, "Yes, let's do this! I'm gonna disfigure that bitch Shao Yinrong!"

Yin Jinye narrowed his eyes, "We'd do as what you said. Before sunset, call up all our people in Beiba Prefecture."

Xinghe wanted to persuade them but finally dropped that idea.

Xiu Zhuo curled his lips, "Yes."

He suddenly felt that it was not bad that the lord had married Rong Yi. The more Yin Family hated Rong Yi, they more they liked him. This way, the lord would be further and further away from Yin Family.

Yin Sensen, who was being held by Wen Chuan in the hall, was rolling his eyes fast. He looked at his father and others outside first, and then looked up to Jiang Mu flying in the air, waving his little short hands excitedly.

"Little master Hui, why do you look so happy?" Wen Chuan asked smilingly while holding him.

Yin Tao said, "My little brother should have gotten something fun. Little brother, you have to share it with me."

Yin Sensen nodded while babbling at Jiang Mu.

Jiang Mu then giggled.

Wen Chuan, "…"

He was really curious how Jiang Mu interpreted Yin Sensen's words.

After nightfall, the atmosphere of Nine Void Sect was as quiet as usual. Except for the patrolling disciples, others were all meditating in their rooms or courtyards. Inside and outside the mountain was total quiet, no one knew a storm was coming their way.

By about eight pm, it was time the patroling team changed their shifts.

When the rotating disciples came to the gate, they saw colored lights flying towards them in the distance.

"What is that blob of thing?" Asked the rotating disciple pointing to the colored light in front.

The other disciples looked in the direction where he was pointing at, "it looks like a seven-colored lamp."

The experienced gatekeeper shouted, "Whatever it is, everyone must be on his guard. If there is any problem, shut the gate immediately and inform the chief and the elders."

"Yes." Other disciples responded.

As the multicolored light drew nearer, they heard a buzzing sound and their minds began to pick up.

"There's an anomaly, everyone, get in and shut…"

Before that disciple finished his words, suddenly a large group of ghost cultivators wearing black fell from above their heads, and took all them down at a thunderbolt speed.

Thousands of ghost cultivators rushed through the gate of the Nine Void Sect.

The Wind Inducing evil beasts and Bone Mantis evil beast which were taken as seven-colored lanterns, flew over the corpses, first sucked them dry, then whittled them to bones and finally turned them into a mass of blood.

At the moment of their entry, the whole Nine Void Sect and the patrolling elders had found their sneak attack through their spiritual sense.

The elder's face changed and he rang the bell hurriedly.

Duang~Duang~Duang~

The bell in the night seemed especially loud and remote, everyone in the whole Nine Void Sect heard it, and the elder used ventriloquism that everyone could hear to shout, "Ghost cultivators and beast cultivators are breaking in! Everybody defend!"

As all the cultivators heard the bell and the order, they immediately picked up their magic weapons and flew to direction of the gate, even the chief and the elders rushed to the square. Before they got to know why those ghost cultivators were here, they already started to have a heated fight.

The quiet and remote Nine Void Sect now was filled with all kinds of killing and blasting sound, totally becoming a battlefield.

Those ghost cultivators Yin Jinye had summoned were mostly above the Spirit Devouring phase, totally heartless and cruel. Though those evil beasts' cultivation was lower than those ghost cultivators, they pooled their efforts together. Five evil beasts together fought a decent cultivator of the same level with them, even fiercer than those ghost cultivators, only a few moves and they already killed one.

The other disciples were too scared to go near them.

Just as they were having a heated fight, three small figures flew in through the gate, excited to see the scene of chaos without fear. They were Rong Yi's three sons, Jiang Mu, Yin Tao and Yin Sensen.

I am also not very clear of the specific situation. I only know that Rong Yi's partner is the young master of Yin Family. And one of their kids may quite possible inherit the position as the future young master. But those elders of Yin Family all think that Rong Yi is not qualified to be their hostess. Actually they already have the best candidate. The only reason they keep Rong Yi's head is that he has given birth to two kids for the family. What they want is to let Rong Yi leave young master Yin himself."

The chief, "…"

After taking a sip of the tea, Shao Yinrong continued, "You stay out of this. Leave it all to me."

The chief stayed silent this time.

Having waited by the gate for about an hour, the chief didn't come out but someone from Shao Family.

Rong Yi narrowed his eyes. As expected, the chief failed to convince his wife to let him go.

Shao Xingjiang gave Rong Yi a malicious smile, "Capture this guy who has escaped from the dungeon and give him twenty heavy spiritual spanks!"

Spiritual stick was no ordinary stick. Spanking on cultivators below Golden Elixir phase, it would only make them feel like hell.

"Yes." The disciples of Shao Family moved forward, caught Rong Yi and locked him up on Jufeng Mountain.

Now many disciples were practicing fighting on Jufeng Mountain. On seeing those disciples from Shao Family detaining Rong Yi, they all stopped and looked over to them.

"Aren't they disciples under Guard Shao?" someone whispered, "How dare they detain master uncle Rong here?"

"Since Her Ladyship is out from closed-up cultivation, now Guard Shao has someone as his backer. It is no longer a wise choice to aim at Shao Family now."

"Should we inform out master shifu to save him? Then uncle master Rong would owe us one and it'd be easier for us to ask him to refine enchanted runes for us."

On hearing what they were whispering about, Shao Xingjiang sneered, "Her Ladyship has issued the order saying anyone one who buys enchanted runes from Rong Yi would be expelled out of the Sect."

Apparently those disciples wouldn't buy his words.

Shao Xingjiang then continued, "Tomorrow Her Ladyship will announce the news and then you would know whether I am telling the truth. Her Ladyship also said Rong Yi broke into the forbidden area trying to steal the eye of our Sect, so no matter who comes plead for him, she wouldn't show any mercy. So it's no use even if you inform your master shifu now. Rong Yi will receive his punishment for sure."

Those disciples all exclaimed, "What? He wants to steal the eye of our Sect? That's capital felony. Even the elders couldn't save him."

On hearing their conversation, Rong Yi frowned. So even Bai Yunchen, Bu Qi or Immortal Yujnyi couldn't save him or speak for him. But someone still spread the news, and gradually more and more disciples came to watch.

The disciples from Shao Family pressed Rong Yi on a stool.

Shao Xingjiang squatted down and said to Rong Yi bitterly, "Rong Yi, never expected this, huh? After you announced that you would not sell a single enchanted rune to us, you should know someday you would fall into our hands. What we have suffered those days, we will give it back all on you!"

Rong Yi raised his brows, "Last time you still called me uncle. And now you just cut me off?"

"Uncle?" Shao Xingjiang laughed grimly, "Since last time, we have no connection with Rong Family anymore. My grandma also cut loose from your family. Now there's only hatred between your family and my family. If you want to be the digger, we will be the burier."

"That's good. Then you don't have to call me uncle to disgust me."

Some murderous look flashed under Shao Xingjiang's eyes. He then got up and said to other disciples, "Beat him! As hard as you could! Even if you destroy his dantian! As long as he is alive!"

He then smiled at Rong Yi ruthlessly, "Without dantian you'd lose your spiritual root. See how you enchanted runes in the future!"

Rong Yi gave him a look, "Aren't you afraid of being hunted down by those who are lining up for my enchanted runes?"

"Do you think they are fools? Why would they hunt me down for some goddamn enchanted runes and offend whole Nine Void Sect? Without the enchanted runes, they'd just return to their normal life like before. They just would no longer take a shortcut to improve their cultivation. As time passes, people would forget about it." Shao Xingjiang no longer talked nonsense with him, he pointed at Rong Yin and yelled, "Beat him! Beat him hard!"

"Yes." Then the disciples of Shao Family immediately spanked on Rong Yi's butt with the spiritual stick, venting all what they had suffered recently on Rong Yi.

Rong Yi screamed.

On hearing that, Shao Xingjiang and others only felt delighted, lips upward. And then they kept spanking him.

Every spank and Rong Yi would scream out loud.

Some disciple pointed at Rong Yi's buttock and said, "It's bleeding, look. Only five spanks and he is bleeding already. They're so cruel."

The disciple who was about to keep spanking Rong Yi then stopped and gave Shao Xingjiang a look.

Shao Xingjiang said, "What's the big fuss? If he is not bleeding, why spank him? You just remember there'd be no problem as long as he is breathing."

Seeing that Rong Yi's hands hung down to the ground, the disciples from Shao Family shouted, "Se…senior brother…Rong Yi doesn't move now. It…it seems he is dead."

Shao Xingjiang, "!!!"
