Son-in-law Heaven Emperor Xiao Yi-Chapter 1159 - 1145: It’s Your Turn Now!

"As you wish, eat it!"

A black fragment.

Xiao Yi’s words.

Every word felt like an invisible slap, ruthlessly landing on the faces of Elder Lan and the others.

In that moment.

Elder Lan, Wu Qian, Jin Malun, Chen Longxiang—each of their faces burned as though they’d been mercilessly slapped dozens of times.

Earlier, they had sworn confidently, believing in the unbreakable nature of the God-binding Lock.

They were certain Xiao Yi could never break it.

But now...

Reality had given them yet another harsh slap.

"Elder Lan, why are you still standing around? Waiting for something finer?"

Xiao Yi sneered coldly, picking up a piece of the shattered chain from the ground. He lightly pinched it with two fingers, twisting them in opposite directions. Before their eyes, powdered dust fell from his fingertips. The God-binding Lock, supposedly indestructible even for the Sacred Lords, crumbled in Xiao Yi’s hand like soft flour.

Hiss!

The crowd collectively gasped.

Their gazes at Xiao Yi were filled with reverence and dread: "This is the God-binding Lock forged from Meteoric Iron! It’s said no one below the rank of Sacred Lord could break it. How did Xiao Yi manage this?"

"Doesn’t it feel like his power has grown even more terrifying since ten days ago?"

"Impossible! It’s only been ten days..."

"What do you suppose Elder Lan will do now?"

People murmured among themselves.

Xiao Yi regarded Elder Lan with an expression devoid of warmth, his eyes brimming with cold mockery.

To him, traitors like Elder Lan, who bit the hand that fed them, were the most detestable.

Now, at the moment when Fang Ru and Fang Qingzhu were at their weakest, their most perilous hour, Elder Lan—once Fang Ru’s staunchest supporter—had chosen betrayal at this crucial turning point.

This betrayal was tantamount to pushing Fang Ru and Fang Qingzhu toward certain death.

And because of this.

Xiao Yi felt no trace of pity or compassion for Elder Lan.

Elder Lan’s face darkened like coal.

He had never imagined that Xiao Yi would truly be able to break the God-binding Lock.

Staring at the shattered pieces of the lock lying before him, Elder Lan’s complexion shifted between green and white, a study in sheer humiliation.

Little Lin, despite the searing pain in his shoulder, grinned through gritted teeth and shouted, "Old bastard, didn’t you say my boss couldn’t crack this damned lock? What now? Are you planning to wiggle out of this one?"

Jin Yi rubbed his shoulder, his face blank: "If you won’t drink a toast to goodwill, you’ll drink the penalty cup instead!"

Elder Lan snorted coldly with a twisted grin, his demeanor unflinching: "This elder drinks neither your goodwill nor penalty! What can you possibly do to me?"

"You..."

"Such shamelessness!"

Little Lin and the others were so furious their teeth itched.

Elder Lan smirked, looking smug: "And what can you do to me?"

He stood now flanking Wu Qian and Jin Malun.

The two stood to his left and right, arms crossed, gazing gleefully at Xiao Yi and his group, as if inviting them to act: Go ahead, make a move! Let’s see what you’ve got!

"Boss..."

Little Lin was enraged, turning to look at Xiao Yi.

Xiao Yi chuckled: "No problem. Since Elder Lan has lost his appetite, I’ll handle this myself!"

As soon as he finished speaking.

A sudden surge of energy burst forth from beneath Xiao Yi’s feet, two turbulent waves roaring outward. The air quivered as though space itself had begun to boil.

Chen Longxiang’s face changed drastically, and he hastily cried out: "Watch out!"

"What?"

Elder Lan and the rest froze, stunned.

Immediately after...

A streak of black light appeared before them; when the light coalesced into a figure, it was none other than Xiao Yi. Somehow, he had already closed the distance to Elder Lan. His right hand reached out, gripping Elder Lan’s head tightly.

He hoisted him into the air.

"Stop!"

"Release Elder Lan..."

Jin Malun and Wu Qian, standing on either side of Elder Lan, watched helplessly as Xiao Yi captured him.

It was akin to being slapped across the face several times.

The two attacked Xiao Yi simultaneously.

"Scram!"

Xiao Yi kicked out with his left and right leg.

No one saw how he moved; they only heard successive explosive sounds, accompanied by Jin Malun and Wu Qian’s haunting screams.

Bang!

Bang!

Their bodies flew in opposite directions, soaring through the air.

Wherever they went, they smashed into mountains, walls—anything unlucky enough to be in their path.

They flew for hundreds of meters before finally coming to a halt.

Left broken among the rubble, completely incapacitated.

Hiss!

The once-boisterous crowd atop the Sacred Mountain fell into an eerie silence.

Everyone stared, dumbstruck.

Xiao Yi held Elder Lan up with one hand, his expression serene, as the terror and despair in Elder Lan’s eyes deepened. Within the grasp of Xiao Yi’s hand, Elder Lan was unable to muster even a shred of his innate strength.

Gulp.

Elder Lan swallowed hard, his face twitching in fear as he stammered, "Lord... Lord Xiao, spare my life... It... it wasn’t my fault, I had no choice..."

Xiao Yi’s face was expressionless.

Elder Lan, seeing no reaction, turned his gaze pleadingly toward Fang Ru: "Holy Leader, Holy Leader, save me..."

Fang Ru sneered and said to Xiao Yi: "Such a backstabber is yours to deal with as you see fit."

"You..." freёnovelkiss-com

Elder Lan’s face turned ashen, his desperate gaze shifting to Chen Longxiang.

This was his final hope.

Chen Longxiang’s eyes narrowed slightly. Xiao Yi’s dominance and power had clearly exceeded his expectations.

Normally.

He wouldn’t hesitate to reject Elder Lan’s plea for help.

But now...

Chen Longxiang could no longer afford not to act. He had to support him.

Chen Longxiang waved his hand, signaling for Elder Lan to remain silent, his icy gaze fixed on Xiao Yi as he spoke, enunciating each word clearly: "Xiao Yi, I’ll give you one last chance: release Elder Lan and kneel before him, bowing your head in apology. Only then will I allow you to leave this place with an intact corpse..."

Seeing Chen Longxiang intervene, Elder Lan’s spirits lifted.

His confidence surged.

Grinning smugly, he sneered at Xiao Yi: "Little bastard, didn’t you hear the ancestor’s words? Let me go now, kneel before me, and apologize. Otherwise, not just you but Fang Qingzhu—and all your brothers—will follow you into the grave..."

"Isn’t living peacefully better than seeking death?"

Xiao Yi sighed softly.

Elder Lan instinctively responded: "You’re right, living peacefully is better! Why oppose the ancestor? Isn’t that just asking for death? You... what are you doing?"

Mid-sentence, his words abruptly stopped.

Fear etched across his face as he stared at Xiao Yi, realizing the hand resting on his head was starting to exert greater force.

"In your next life, remember to keep your eyes open. There are people you cannot afford to provoke..." Xiao Yi remarked calmly. Then, with a burst of strength, a muffled *bang* echoed out, as Elder Lan’s head exploded under the pressure. Along with his Primordial Spirit, it vanished entirely.

Scalding blood sprayed in all directions.

Xiao Yi remained untouched, his demeanor unshaken. He tilted his lips into a faint smile, turning to regard Chen Longxiang, whose face now locked in fury: "Your turn."
