C107 The destroyed fang family
Chen Xiao was startled, and was about to step forward to take their lives.
However, an extremely dangerous feeling had suddenly appeared in his heart.
This startled Chen Xiao, and made him retreat quickly towards the distance without even thinking.
Chen Xiao's speed was much faster than Fang Dingshan's. Seeing that Chen Xiao was running further and further away, a hint of despair flashed past Fang Dingshan's eyes.
Bang!
Rumble rumble rumble!
Terrifying explosions combined with violent true energy shockwaves swept out in all directions.
All the houses and buildings nearby were destroyed in an instant.
Even Chen Xiao had suffered the aftermath of the explosion. His face flushed red and he almost vomited a mouthful of blood, but he swallowed it back.
"This fellow is really ruthless!" After stabilizing himself, he turned around and looked in the direction where Fang Dingshan had been. Where could he see anyone?
He had already exploded into nothingness.
This fellow actually chose to self-destruct his Dantian when he saw that there was no hope of survival, and pulled Chen Xiao along to perish together with him.
Fortunately, Chen Xiao had noticed that something was wrong and avoided the attack in time. Otherwise, he would have been in danger today.
On the other side, the two Martial King s' faces were frozen as well. They had not expected that this Fang Dingshan would actually do such an intense action.
This was truly out of their expectations.
However, this also indirectly proved that what Chen Xiao said, was probably true!
He felt a sense of lingering fear.
When he looked at Chen Xiao again, there was already a trace of indescribable fear in his eyes. He didn't dare to stay too long where he was, and hurriedly turned to flee into the distance, disappearing from sight in the blink of an eye.
Seeing the two leaving, Chen Xiao did not stop them, and looked at the place where Fang Dingshan died, feeling that it was a pity. If not for the fact that this fella had self-destructed, then it would have provided Chen Xiao with a lot of cultivation, but now it was no longer possible.
Seeing that it was almost time, Chen Xiao did not dare to delay any further, and immediately turned and rushed towards the Fang family's residence.
...
This time, there was no one in the Fang family who could stop Chen Xiao. Even the guards of the City Lord's Mansion did not appear.
In the entire Fang family, most of the disciples that were at least Martial Masters had their cultivations destroyed by Chen Xiao.
During this entire process, what made Chen Xiao a little surprised was that he actually found the Fang Family's treasury, which was piled full of gold coins and heaven and earth treasures.
At the very least, he wouldn't have to worry about resources for cultivation for a short period of time.
As for the Fang family, when Chen Xiao left, he gave them a severe warning.
As for whether these people would listen, Chen Xiao did not know.
However, even if he didn't listen, so what?
The current Fang Family could not pose any threat to Chen Xiao.
When the sky lit up, Chen Xiao finally returned to his inn.
Not long after arriving at the inn, the Secret Art of Berserk's time was up to its limit, the surging cultivation had disappeared, Chen Xiao's entire being was in a state of extreme weakness, his cultivation was directly pushed back to the early stage of One Star Martial King, just a bit more and he was forced back to the martial general realm.
Fortunately he had killed those people, and Chen Xiao had purposely absorbed their cultivation to make up for it, so he did not experience a direct decrease in realm.
However, the side effects were extremely terrifying. Not only would his cultivation be slightly lower, he would also be in a weakened state and would be unable to recover for at least half a day.
Closing the door, Chen Xiao started to take out a bunch of healing, recovery and cultivation enhancing pills from his storage ring.
He had taken all these pills from the Fang family's people and did not feel any heartache when he used them.
After taking out the pills, the black fire drilled out from Chen Xiao's palm and directly swallowed all the pills. After which, it returned to his body and started to continuously replenish the cultivation in Chen Xiao's body.
...
When the first rays of the morning sun rose, the outside world was in chaos. There were bustling sounds everywhere, and one could occasionally hear some people screaming and berating.
Chen Xiao knew that the news of the Fang Family had definitely spread.
However, Chen Xiao didn't have the intention to go out right now!
After staying in the room for an entire afternoon, Chen Xiao finally walked out.
The current Chen Xiao had changed into a black long robe.
He opened the door and this time, he did not choose another place. Instead, he ran towards the main hall on the first floor of the inn and sat down in the center of the bustling crowd.
After ordering a serving of food and wine, a man sat alone and poured himself a cup of wine.
Although it was already the afternoon, the number of people passing by the inn was quite large. Many of them had nothing else to do, so they simply went to the inn in groups of three or five to drink and relieve their boredom.
Here, Chen Xiao also heard some of the information he wanted.
Amongst them, the most explosive and lively one was naturally the Fang family, one of the eight great aristocratic families. They had actually been brought to their doorstep by a mysterious expert in one night and almost had their entire clan annihilated.
Several Martial King Stage Warriors had all died. The cultivation of all the direct descendants of Martial Masters and above was abolished. Even the women were not spared!
As for the Fang family guards, they had fled the Fang family that very night.
Furthermore, most of them had been robbed in the Fang family residence before they left.
It could be said that this caused the Fang family, which had already been through a lot of trials and hardships, to become even worse. They no longer had any means to hold on and had to evacuate from Luocheng overnight.
And the facts proved that the Fang family's decision was correct!
After confirming that what had happened in the Fang family was true, many of the people from the small clans who had previously been provoked by the Fang family's domineering actions all ran over to find trouble with the Fang family.
As for the properties of the Fang family, they were bought by the direct disciples. Those that couldn't be sold out were directly taken away by others.
Other than the Fang family itself, many small families and cultivators had benefited from the Fang family's destruction.
As for the identity of the mysterious expert, and why he had killed so many people of the Fang family …
Many people guessed that it was because the Fang family was used to being tyrannical, and accidentally offended a Martial King Stage Ranker. In the end, they were chased down.
As for the cultivation level of the Martial King Stage, according to the observations made by the city guards and some others, it should at least be Four-Star Martial King, or even a five star Martial King.
Even the City Lord's Mansion had only sent out two military generals to investigate this matter. They had no intention of pursuing the identity of the supreme expert for the Fang Clan.
Besides this, there was another matter that caught Chen Xiao's attention. It was that, in the evening, there would be a triennial auction held in the middle of the biggest merchant guild of Luo City — the Merchant Union of the World. At that time, many heaven and earth treasures and divine weapons would all appear on the stage!
These things were extremely useful to Chen Xiao in raising his strength, so Chen Xiao naturally would not miss out on it.
