Soul Emperor Martial God

"You're being presumptuous," Wan Qiushui immediately erupted in rage.

As a Sect Elder, an Elder of the Sword Sect, who didn't greet him with the utmost respect and courtesy?

When had he ever been talked back to by a junior?

"Northern Mountain Sword Master," a strong warrior from Blood Mist Valley also said coldly, "leave immediately."

"Even if you are the Strongest Sword Master, you cannot disturb such a joyous event."

"Joyous event? I don't see one," Xiao Yi sneered.

The elder from Blood Mist Valley said coldly, "This has nothing to do with you."

"However it may be, it's a matter between Blood Mist Valley and Liu Family. Since when is it your place to meddle?"

Xiao Yi sneered, "I am the Commander of the Flame Martial Guards."

"If Yanran is unwilling to marry, you're forcibly abducting a common girl."

"Do I need to lock you up in the Flame Martial Guard Prison?"

Forcibly abducting a common girl?

Once these words were spoken, the surrounding martial artists all cast sidelong glances.

This kind of charge could be used to manage ordinary people or forces.

To manage Blood Mist Valley?

However, in reality, Xiao Yi's words weren't incorrect.

If Blood Mist Valley truly forcibly abducted a common girl, the Flame Martial Guards indeed had the authority to lock people up.

The question was, who would offend Blood Mist Valley over such a trivial matter?

Furthermore, if people from Blood Mist Valley were to be locked in the Flame Martial Guard Prison for such a minor offense,

then the mighty Blood Mist Valley would become the laughingstock of the entire Royal Capital.

Who would dare to do such a thing?

Who would dare offend Blood Mist Valley to death?

Others might not dare, but Xiao Yi would.

"You…" The two elders from Blood Mist Valley's faces turned cold and dark.

At the same time, Wan Qiushui, who had been bristling with rage and ready to take action, immediately shrank back.

He had remembered that the young man before him was not an ordinary Sect junior.

Nor was he someone whose strength could be simply judged by age.

The young man before him was the True Commander of the Flame Martial Guards.

A few days earlier, he had even defeated Feng and Yun from Black Demon Hall.

He admitted to himself that he, a mere Heavenly Origin Third Layer, was no match at all.

At that moment, Liu Family Head said coldly, "Northern Mountain Sword Master."

"Yanran is a child of our Liu Family."

"I can vouch that Blood Mist Valley did not forcibly abduct a common girl."

"This marriage has been approved by both of our forces."

"It's our decision for Yanran to marry, what does it have to do with you?"

"We are Yanran's elders, and we ask you to leave immediately."

"Otherwise, do not blame us for being rude."

Xiao Yi sneered, "To be exact, what does it have to do with you?"

"Yanran is my best friend, and I will get involved in her affairs."

"As for what status you hold, what does it have to do with me?"

Xiao Yi insisted that Liu Yanran was his best friend.

After all, this was the Royal Capital, where one could not initiate combat recklessly.

At least both parties wouldn't make a move without sufficient reason.

Liu Family Head's face darkened, "The marriage matters of the juniors in our family are decided by the elders of our family."

"If the Northern Mountain Sword Master continues to be so aggressive and rude, we will only have to..."

Before Liu Family Head could finish speaking,

Liu Yanran, who was by Xiao Yi's side, interrupted, "You don't get a say."

Xiao Yi glanced at her with satisfaction and smiled.

Liu Yanran's attitude was what mattered most.

Liu Family Head said coldly, "In the Liu Family, I am the Family Head, if I don't get a say, then who does?"

"All the elders in the family agree as well, if they don't get a say, then who does?"

Liu Yanran responded, "Grandfather has the final say."

Liu Yanran's mention of 'Grandfather' naturally referred to the former Liu Family Patriarch.

Xiao Yi had previously looked into matters concerning Liu Yanran.

In her childhood, Liu Yanran's father was the number one talent of the Liu Family, the future Family Patriarch.

Therefore, as a child, she was doted on by everyone.

However, not long after, her father experienced a great battle while on an external expedition.

By the time the family's warriors rescued her father...

Her father was already at death's door, and the family had paid a great price just to save his life.

But his talents were completely destroyed, and he could no longer cultivate.

The family had expended such great effort to save him.

Only to save a person who could no longer cultivate, a useless person.

Naturally, dissatisfaction arose within the family.

Afterward, the position of Young Master was directly stripped away.

Overnight, the young Liu Yanran experienced earth-shaking changes.

She was no longer the beloved Heavenly Talent of everyone.

Instead, she became the target of the family's resentment and bullying.

It was probably for this reason that the grown-up Liu Yanran left the Liu Family for the Sky-splitting Sword Sect in Northern Mountain County.

As for this middle-aged man before her, he was actually her uncle.

The marriage arrangement with Blood Mist Valley was also signed by him and other powerful members of the family with Blood Mist Valley, without even consulting Yanran's father.

To get back on track.

The Liu Family Patriarch coldly stared at Liu Yanran, "Yanran, you know full well that the old Family Head is in seclusion and cannot leave in the short term."

"Stop making unreasonable trouble."

Liu Yanran retorted angrily, "It's precisely because Grandfather is in seclusion that you're rushing to marry me off to Blood Mist Valley."

The only ones in the Liu Family who cared for Liu Yanran were her father and her grandfather.

At this moment, a young man suddenly stood up.

"Liu Yanran, your good-for-nothing father has wasted a tremendous amount of family resources."

"And now he's half-dead."

"Do you also want to become such a good-for-nothing and cause trouble for the family?"

"Young Valley Master Xue Wushang of Blood Mist Valley is one of the Six Talents of the Royal Capital."

"His favor towards you is your honor, yet you are still unwilling?"

"I think you're just trying to raise your own price."

The young man speaking was none other than the son of the current Liu Family Patriarch, Liu Chengfeng.

By relation, he was also Yanran's cousin.

"You... you have no right to speak of my father like that," Liu Yanran said furiously.

"What, is it wrong for me to tell the truth?" Liu Chengfeng sneered dismissively.

"You..." Liu Yanran was shaking all over.

Her face was a complex mixture of sadness, anger, and above all, helplessness.

"Don't worry, I will rip his mouth off for you later," Xiao Yi consoled her, patting Liu Yanran's head.

"Hmph," Liu Chengfeng snorted with a laugh, "Rip off my mouth?"

"Let's see who captures whom first."

"Men, seize these evildoers who wish to abduct a member of the Liu Family, and capture these two immediately!"

"Yes, Young Master." A few Liu Family Martial Artists lunged into action instantly.

"Seeking death," Xiao Yi said as a burst of Sword Qi erupted from his hand.

The Liu Family Martial Artists were instantaneously struck with severe injuries and sent flying.

The Liu Family Patriarch let out a cold laugh, "Good, very good."

"In full view of everyone, you dare to harm a member of the Liu Family, the audacity is extreme."

"Seize him!"

Simultaneously, a woman from Blood Mist Valley suddenly looked towards the Second Elder.

"Master, that's him, Xiao Yi, the man who slaughtered our Murong Family," she said.

The woman was none other than Murong Jiao'er.

"What?" The Second Elder from Blood Mist Valley said with a cold expression, "So it was this evildoer?"

"Destroying a family, and now causing a ruckus at another family's household in public."

"Hmph, such an evildoer, malicious and tyrannical."

"Even if you are the Northern Mountain Sword Master, the Commander of Flame Martial Guards, I will not let you off."

"People like him must be punished by everyone."

With that, the Second Elder made his move.

Blood Mist Valley Martial Artists and Liu Family Martial Artists attacked at once.

"Xiao Yi," Liu Yanran exclaimed in surprise.

"Don't be afraid," Xiao Yi said softly, "Just stay behind me."

"I've said before, if anyone dares to bully you, Lin Jin and I will tie these people up to vent your anger."

As his words fell.

The Frost Sword appeared in Xiao Yi's hand out of thin air.

A chill filled the air and the overwhelming sword momentum descended.

...

The second update.
