Nine Dragons Saint Ancestor-Chapter 13: Thirteen This is all your fault!

Only Yun Xiao himself knew exactly what was going on, with his past life experience as the Long Xiao Battle God being exceedingly savvy. From the previous battle, he had completely figured out Shang Huiyu's strength, and there would be no need to expend as much effort as before in another fight.

One could say that even though Yun Xiao's Meridian Qi Cultivation had just started, his insight was unparalleled in the Hidden Dragon Continent. Plus, since Shang Huiyu's strength hadn't reached a level that made him back down, meeting such an end was only to be expected.

"Ah!"

Finally, a scream filled with pain rang out. As the eldest grandson of the main branch of the Shang Family and the top talent among the younger generation, Shang Huiyu had never suffered such a loss, not just in the Shang Family but also throughout Moon Bow City, so he couldn't help but cry out in pain then and there.

Everyone could clearly see that Shang Huiyu's forearm still had the bronze color of the Vajra Arm, but starting from the wrist, it was severely swollen, obviously with the wrist bone being crushed by Yun Xiao.

"Grandfather, kill him for me, kill Yun Xiao!"

The pain, combined with endless humiliation, made Shang Huiyu lose his reason at this moment. As his sharp voice came out, Shang Li's face suddenly changed.

"You little bastard, to strike with such cruelty, don't blame me for enforcing the clan rules now!"

Seeing Shang Huiyu's broken right wrist and the sweat dripping from his forehead because of pain, Shang Ying, who always doted on his beloved grandson, couldn't hold back and jumped out.

The shout from Shang Ying's mouth was actually quite clever. With outsiders present, he wanted Yin Huan to know that he was not bullying the younger with his seniority, but rather, it was because Yun Xiao struck too viciously that he had to discipline him with the clan rules.

In fact, Shang Huiyu, with his Channel Introduction Realm Middle Stage cultivation, had already shown signs of bullying the weaker Yun Xiao, who was at the later stages of Meridian Qi strength. Nevertheless, these Shang Family members still pretended to be sanctimonious, placing "righteousness" above all else, which was simply nauseating.

However, Yun Xiao had no chance to speak at this moment. Shang Ying was a genuine Meridian Gathering Realm Peak powerhouse, with strength far beyond Shang Huiyu, who was at the Channel Introduction Realm Middle Stage. Even Yun Xiao felt extremely oppressed facing such a person.

Shang Ying was incredibly fast, and as soon as his words fell, his figure had already reached not far in front of Yun Xiao. But just as he locked all his Meridian Qi onto Yun Xiao, a graceful figure suddenly stood in front of him.

"Uncle, please show mercy!"

This figure was none other than Yun Xiao's mother, Shang Li. With her motherly instincts kicked in, she knew Yun Xiao couldn't possibly be a match for her uncle, Shang Ying, and with his cold ruthlessness, she feared a single move might cripple Yun Xiao if not kill him.

"Get out of the way!"

If Shang Ying had any familial affection for Shang Li before, it had all dissipated today after seeing Yun Xiao's disrespectful behavior and the eerie way he injured his precious grandson.

After the low shout, seeing Shang Li showing no signs of stepping back, Shang Ying was irritated beyond measure. As he launched a palm strike that landed directly on Shang Li's crossed arms, she staggered several steps backward, nearly colliding with Yun Xiao behind her, before finally steadying herself.

Shang Li's cultivation was just at the beginning of the Meridian Gathering Realm, which was not weak in the Shang Family, but compared to Shang Ying, the second strongest in the family, she was far from enough.

Moreover, Shang Ying, taking advantage of the situation, saw Shang Li injured and retreating but still not moving aside. He snorted coldly and swung his right palm from right to left, fiercely slapping Shang Li's face.

"Slap!"

A crisp slap echoed through the hall, followed by everyone seeing Shang Li's left cheek visibly swell up at an observable speed, and she was sent staggering two steps to the right, her breath in complete disarray.

"Mother!"

It was not until Shang Li stumbled two steps that Yun Xiao realized his mother had suffered such humiliation. He immediately stepped forward to support her, his eyes turning back to glare at Shang Ying as if spitting fire.

Even though the soul inside Yun Xiao was no longer the original Yun Xiao, he had seen the protective heart of his mother and sister in the past few days. Therefore, in this moment, this man known as Shang Ying had been added to his kill list.

Shang Ying didn't care at all about Yun Xiao's resentful gaze. After pushing Shang Li aside, he coldly uttered, "Shang Li, this was just a lesson for you. If you don't learn to be respectful, don't blame your uncle for being ruthless!"

"What a noble 'uncle,' what ruthless mercy!"

The angrier Yun Xiao was, the more he knew he couldn't act rashly. After a cold laugh, he suddenly turned and said, "Mother, there's no need for us to stay in such a Shang Family. Let's just leave!"

The once Long Xiao Battle God, who had been undefeated in the Nine-layered Dragon Cloud, was only because he did not understand restraint. Eventually, his power threatened his master, and even his wife betrayed him, leading to the fall of his physical body.

Upon rebirth through Yun Xiao's body, the once Long Xiao Battle God had unintendedly grasped this principle. With his current late-stage Meridian Qi cultivation, he was already unable to cope with just Shang Ying, not to mention the Family Head of the Shang Family seated at the top, who was at the Meridian Rushing Realm.

Yun Xiao knew that if he tried to forcefully resist, his fate would hardly differ from his previous life. A true man can bend and stretch. He believed that, given time and the knowledge he possessed, seeking justice from the Shang Family for today's indignities wouldn't take too long.

"Hmph, thinking of leaving so easily? Not a chance!"

Hearing Yun Xiao's words, Shang Ying let out a cold laugh. Yun Xiao had broken his precious grandson's wrist, so even if he didn't take the boy's life today, he would at least make him pay with an arm. Only then would his burning resentment be extinguished.

"Shang Ying, do you really want to force my mother and me to a dead end?"

Yun Xiao lifted his head, and for some reason, upon hearing these words tinged with icy calm, a chill suddenly rose in Shang Ying's heart. This level of composure didn't seem fitting for a mere fourteen-year-old boy.

But recalling the status of Yun Xiao and his mother, Shang Ying found his moment of odd feeling ridiculously funny. What right did such a base-born wretch have to negotiate terms with him?

"Yun Xiao, I can give you a chance. If you sever your own arm and kneel to apologize to Shang Huiyu with three loud kowtows, perhaps I might let you leave the Shang Family unscathed!" Shang Ying sneered, and everyone who heard these terms knew his intentions clear as ice.

Shang Ying's heart was venomous indeed. By saying "give you a chance," he was inflicting the ultimate humiliation. If Yun Xiao did amputate his arm and prostrated himself, his whole life would surely be destroyed thereafter.

"Shang Ying, you... your Shang Family is forcing my hand. Don't come to regret this!"

Naturally, Yun Xiao would never agree to such conditions. As these words left his mouth, everyone from the Shang Family seemed to hear a huge joke.

The strongest among the mother and her children, Shang Li, was merely at the early stage of the Meridian Gathering Realm, while Yun Xiao and his sister Yun Wei hadn't even broken through the Meridian Introduction Realm. Could they really stir any trouble?

"Yun Xiao, if you don't have the guts to do it yourself, then let me do the honors!" Shang Ying burst into a furious laugh, thinking that Yun Xiao was just bluffing at the last moment. He figured once he broke the boy's arm, Yun Xiao would likely weep and beg for mercy.

Yun Xiao didn't respond to Shang Ying's words, even his actions going unnoticed as he turned his head to look at a young figure seated at the top and said, "Yin Huan, if you can contain this old man Shang Ying for me, maybe I can help you out a great deal!"

"Hmm?"

Yun Xiao's unexpected statement took everyone by surprise, not least Yin Huan himself, who was puzzled and had no idea what the boy meant.

But the next moment, everyone had a new thought. Could it be that Yun Xiao, pushed to this dead end, was finally willing to call off the engagement with the Lingyun Sect?

Even if he did agree to Lingyun Sect's terms to break off the engagement, that wouldn't warrant Yin Huan's help. After this matter was settled and Yin Huan left, wouldn't it still be up to the Shang Family to decide Yun Xiao's fate?

As this occurred to Yin Huan, he no longer had so many scruples. If Yun Xiao was really using the breaking of the engagement as a bargaining chip, it wouldn't hurt to agree to help him for the time being – once he got the Jade Pendant, Yun Xiao's wishes would no longer matter.

"Yun Xiao, hand over the Jade Pendant and maybe I'll consider it!"

At that moment, Yin Huan didn't bring up the Gathering Energy Pill or the low level Spiritual Rank Cultivation Technique Meridian Techniques, presumably knowing that Yun Xiao, desperate to cling to this last lifeline, likely wouldn't care about anything else.

"You've misunderstood, that's not what I'm talking about!"

To Yin Huan's surprise, Yun Xiao shook his head after his remark and let go of his mother's arm, slowly walking over to the prodigy of Jade Pot Sect.

"Oh? Not that matter?" Yin Huan asked with interest, watching Yun Xiao, implying that aside from that, he might not take other matters seriously.

Yun Xiao neither confirmed nor denied, simply walking up to Yin Huan's side. Then, a whisper as fine as a mosquito's buzz reached the ears of the Jade Pot Sect prodigy.

"Three Yin Meridians, Three Yin Absolute Poison, at the hours of Zi and Wu, as if plunging into an icy abyss!"

This softly spoken, secretive transmission made Yin Huan tremble as if struck by thunder on a clear day, his face incredulous as he stared at the plainly dressed boy as if trying to see right into the depths of Yun Xiao's soul.

Though they didn't quite care initially, the Shang Family's members all changed expressions at the sight of Yin Huan's ghost-seeing look. They didn't know what Yun Xiao had just said, but they understood that it was anything but trivial.

After all, what could a mere late-stage Meridian Qi youngster possibly know that could shock a Meridian Rushing Realm super-genius like this?

At that moment, every member of the Shang Family was filled with intense curiosity, not excluding the closely situated Family Head Shang Yan.
