Chapter 16 Despair

"So it's the Cold Flame Sect's invitation token. Speaking of which, the Seventh Miss's reputation as the number one beauty of Mingyuan City has long been admired by me. Seeing her today, she truly lives up to the name." The wicked-looking youth's gaze fell on the purple-gold token, and he grinned, looking at the Seventh Miss again, a hint of wonder flashing across his face.

"I don't care who you are. Leave the Yu residence immediately, or you will be openly antagonizing the Cold Flame Sect." Seeing that the other party recognized the token in her hand, the Seventh Miss felt a bit more confident.

"Seventh Miss, so you've been favored by the Cold Flame Sect!" The black-clothed woman and the other three Yu family retainers had originally planned to stay out of it, but seeing this situation, they were all invigorated.

The Yu family members also felt a glimmer of hope in their hearts.

"Haha! The Cold Flame Sect, is it really that great?" The wicked-looking youth suddenly burst into laughter.

"You dare to despise the Cold Flame Sect!" The Seventh Miss's face darkened, and she shouted sternly.

"Despise? Don't even mention that you're not an official disciple of the Cold Flame Sect, just holding an invitation token. Even if you were, so what?" The wicked-looking youth sneered, flipping his hand to take out a black token, about the same size as the purple-gold token in Yu Qi's hand, with a silver skull pattern engraved on it.

"This is... the Inner Sect Disciple Token of the Sky Ghost Sect! You are people from the Sky Ghost Sect!" The Seventh Miss's face changed.

"The Sky Ghost Sect, on par with the Cold Flame Sect!"

The black-clothed woman and the other three gasped upon hearing this. After exchanging glances, they all fell silent.

"Even if you are a disciple of the Sky Ghost Sect, Feng Country is a territory of the Cold Flame Sect. You are rashly invading. Are you trying to provoke a war between the two sects!" The Seventh Miss seemed to have thought of something, and some color returned to her face.

"Hehe, Seventh Miss is indeed eloquent, but unfortunately, you're wrong about something." The wicked-looking youth said dismissively.

The Seventh Miss was slightly taken aback.

"To tell you the truth, the Cold Flame Sect was defeated in the last competition with our sect and has already handed over control of Feng Country. Now the entire Feng Country is under the control of our Sky Ghost Sect." The wicked-looking youth said with a cruel smile.

Upon hearing this, Yu Qi felt as if struck by lightning, and she was completely stunned.

The black-clothed woman and the other three Yu family retainers also showed expressions of shock and retreated backward, deliberately distancing themselves from the Yu family members.

The Yu family members' faces were even more unsightly at this moment, their hearts sinking rapidly.

Even if they didn't understand the affairs of the cultivation world, they could glean some understanding from the conversation between the Seventh Miss and the wicked-looking youth.

"Oh right, there's one more thing I forgot to mention, and I think the Seventh Miss will be very interested." A strange light appeared in the wicked-looking youth's eyes, and the corners of his mouth curled into a malicious smile.

"What is it?" Yu Qi's heart sank, vaguely guessing that what the wicked-looking youth was about to say was definitely not good, but she couldn't help but ask.

"Some members of the Feng Country royal family and some officials dared to disobey the orders of our Sky Ghost Sect. After these people were captured, they were convicted of treason and were beheaded in Fengjing yesterday as a public example. It seems that Yu Xiang, along with his two sons who were also civil officials, were among them." The wicked-looking youth stared into the Seventh Miss's eyes, saying each word clearly.

"Father! Eldest Brother, Third Brother!" The Seventh Miss's vision went black, her body swayed, and she fell to the ground. The token in her hand also fell to the ground with a "clatter".

The other members of the Yu family also looked desperate upon hearing this. The few dignified women could no longer hold back their wails and collapsed to the ground.

Just a moment ago, they were still members of the esteemed Prime Minister's residence, with high status and respected by the world. In the blink of an eye, they had suffered a great change, the Prime Minister had been killed, their family was destroyed, and they had become fish on a chopping board.

"Haha... Haha!"

Seeing the Seventh Miss's expression at this moment, the wicked-looking youth's cheeks flushed, and a morbid excitement appeared in his eyes. He laughed wildly, as if mad.

Forcing people into the abyss of despair and then admiring their collapsing and helpless expressions was his favorite thing to do.

After laughing wildly for a while, the redness on the wicked-looking youth's face gradually faded. He waved his hand and coldly ordered:

"Kill all these people. Leave the Seventh Miss."

The surrounding men in black all agreed in unison, grinning as they walked towards the Yu family members.

The black-clothed woman and the other three retainers had already lowered their heads and retreated to the side, seemingly planning to find an opportunity to escape. Seeing this, the wicked-looking youth smiled smugly and did not stop them.

"Hehe, Young Master Qi has a good eye. Although this woman hasn't started cultivating yet, she was directly issued an invitation token by the Cold Flame Sect, preparing to accept her into the sect. Her aptitude should be good, making her very suitable as your furnace." A man in black approached the wicked-looking youth, flattering him obsequiously.

Upon hearing this, the wicked-looking youth burst into laughter again.

The Seventh Miss's body trembled, and her eyes regained clarity. A look of determination flashed across her face. She reached to her waist with her left hand and produced a gleaming dagger, stabbing it fiercely towards her heart.

The wicked-looking youth's smile froze. He obviously hadn't expected the other party to be so unyielding. He wanted to stop her, but it was already too late.

Whoosh!

A piercing sound rang out, and a sharp wind shot over, hitting the dagger in the Seventh Miss's hand.

With a "clang", the dagger was knocked away and fell to the ground.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh! Several more sharp winds sounded, striking the men in black who were about to slaughter the Yu family.

A series of screams rang out. The sharp wind was incredibly powerful. Several men in black were hit by the sharp wind and flew out, spitting blood directly.

The others stopped in shock.

"Who is it!"

The wicked-looking youth shouted sharply, turning abruptly to look at an intersection not far away.

The surrounding people also looked over.

A series of footsteps sounded, and several figures walked out slowly from there. It was Han Li, Baishi Zhenren, and the others.

The wicked-looking youth narrowed his eyes, looking at the group. His gaze paused briefly on Han Li before quickly shifting to Baishi Zhenren.

"Baishi Zhenren!"

"Zhenren, save us!"

The Yu family members had originally given up hope and were waiting to die. But seeing the appearance of the Jindan stage cultivator, Baishi Laodao, at this moment, they felt as if they had grasped a life-saving straw, and their desire to survive was reignited.

"Miss!"

Xiao Wu ignored the surrounding men in black and rushed to Yu Qi's side, helping her up.

"Xiao Wu."

The Seventh Miss looked at the old Daoist not far away with a complex expression.

Although Baishi Zhenren was a Jindan stage master, the red-robed Shangren from before was also at the Jindan stage, but he had been easily killed by the wicked-looking youth in front of them with a single move. Baishi Zhenren was probably no match for the enemy in front of them either.

Her eyes suddenly flashed, landing on Han Li.

Han Li's appearance hadn't changed at all from before, but his eyes were no longer filled with any confusion. Instead, his whole body exuded a faint sense of composure.

"You're Baishi Zhenren? Hmph! Let me give you a word of advice. If you value your life, don't meddle in other people's business!" The wicked-looking youth stared at Baishi Zhenren, the black light on his body suddenly flared, and a huge pressure spread out fiercely.

The sharp wind from before was incredibly powerful, yet it was intangible and seemed to appear out of nowhere.

Although the wicked-looking youth was well-informed, he couldn't guess how the sharp wind was produced. He felt a trace of apprehension towards Baishi Daoren. He released his spiritual pressure, wanting to make him give up in the face of difficulty.

Baishi Zhenren's body trembled, and a trace of fear flashed in his eyes.

The pressure exuded by the wicked-looking youth had already reached the middle stage of Jindan. He was only at the early stage of Jindan and was far from his opponent. He couldn't help but glance at Han Li.

He had seen very clearly that the previous sharp winds were just a few casual finger winds released by this "Senior Han" from a distance.

Han Li had a noncommittal expression on his face, and he didn't speak.

The old Daoist felt a chill in his heart and immediately made a decision. He spoke righteously and sternly, "Hmph! Since I am a Yu family retainer, how can I stand idly by! You people are audacious, daring to commit such a massacre! It's simply intolerable!"

The wicked-looking youth's face was filled with rage. He roared, "Good, since you want to live longer, then go to hell together!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he raised his hand, and a white bone saber flew out, slashing towards Baishi Zhenren.

At the same time, the hand seals in his hand changed, and a large expanse of white light suddenly erupted from the bone saber, revealing illusory figures of snow-white skulls inside, with endless wails of ghosts and wolves, making it extremely powerful.
