Chapter 1713: The Noble Genius: Sun Yuan Ji Arrives
Ling Xiao is someone with a strong sense of opinion, especially for someone as successful as he is, there are too many women willing to throw themselves at him.
If he were to love anyone he saw and accepted everyone, he might have ended up with three thousand concubines by now.
That kind of thing, Ling Xiao had never even thought about.
Someone who indulges in women cannot possibly ascend the great path of martial arts.
He admits that Liu Lian is a very good girl, just like Ji Luoyu, Fengming Lian, and Ji Mingkong.
However, dislike is dislike, and he wouldn't force himself to love a woman.
Lord Liu said awkwardly, "Do you think Lian Er is not good enough for you?"
"It's not about being good enough or not, Liu Lian is excellent, but I will only ever have one woman."
Ling Xiao's attitude was very firm.
"I, Liu Lian, have decided that you are the one for me in this lifetime. No matter how you see me, I am willing to follow you, even if it means keeping my chastity for life."
At this moment, Liu Lian suddenly spoke.
For a girl to say such words, it truly means she is resolved to risk everything.
"Shameless bastard, traitorous couple, you killed my brothers, how could I let you off today!"
Just as Ling Xiao was considering how to respond to Liu Lian, suddenly a thunderous sound erupted in the sky.
Upon hearing this, both Lord Liu and Liu Lian's faces froze with terror.
"Quick, Young Master Ling, take Lian Er and leave. Whether as a friend or a woman, just go, or it'll be too late!"
Lord Liu hastily shouted.
Although his daughter Liu Lian had already regained her Yin-Yang Realm Eighth Layer cultivation, he still didn't think she was a match for Sun Yuan Ji.
As for Ling Xiao, although talented, he was still too young to be considered a match for Sun Yuan Ji.
"Leave? Still think you can escape? Secure all key routes and surround the Willis Clan."
The voice in the sky erupted once more.
Then, hundreds of figures swiftly descended upon the Willis Clan, driving back the onlookers and then surrounding the Willis manor.
"It's the Sun family's elite martial artists, all with Yin-Yang Realm cultivation. This time the Willis Clan is in trouble."
"And that young man, he can't escape either."
The crowd watched this scene in horror.
There aren't many families who would dare to cause such a commotion in the Tianhai Imperial City, and the Sun family is one of them.
"It's over, completely over, sigh!"
Lord Liu's face turned ashen.
If his daughter could escape, even if the Willis Clan was annihilated, there would still be some hope left.
But now, escape was impossible.
One Sun Yuan Ji was already terrifying enough.
Who would have thought this guy would bring along hundreds of the Sun family's elite martial artists? Clearly, they intended to destroy the Willis Clan.
"Brother Sun, that's the one, his name is Ling Xiao, a candidate martial artist from the Dragon and Phoenix Continent."
The speaker turned out to be that Imperial Martial Artist who had previously been defeated by Ling Xiao.
This guy indeed went to report back.
Perfect timing!
Ling Xiao's lips curled into a cold smile.
Yes, he did it on purpose.
If he stormed into the Sun family directly, it might be dangerous. It was better to let this guy go to the Sun family for reinforcements; those who come won't be the entire group.
This way, he could further weaken the Sun family's forces.
This wasn't for the Willis Clan, but for himself.
Now that they were enemies, the weaker the Sun family, the better it was for him.
Sun Yuan Ji was dressed in a shining silver robe, clearly lined with silver foil, making his face indistinguishable under the sunlight.
"It's said that Sun Yuan Ji is very flamboyant; seeing it today, it's indeed true."
"Yes, wearing such an eye-catching outfit, isn't he afraid of being robbed?"
"What does he have to be afraid of? In Tianhai City, how many dare provoke him? Those weaker fear him; those stronger fear his family.
Moreover, that outfit also has special uses beyond flamboyance."
The crowd squinted their eyes, looking at the sky.
Sun Yuan Ji stood there like a silver-armored war god, both commanding and elegant, truly living up to being one of the top twenty genius martial artists of the Tianhai Empire.
Though still not as formidable as his brother Sun Little Monster, he was still very strong, commanding great respect from many.
"Young Master Sun, since you're here, why not come down for a talk? Maybe there's a misunderstanding between us."
Lord Liu took a deep breath.
Now that the situation had escalated to this point, he could only try to minimize the losses.
If sacrificing his own life, along with gifting the Willis Clan's supreme treasure to Sun Yuan Ji, could save his daughter's life, it would be enough.
"Heh, misunderstanding? Lord Liu, do you dare say my two brothers, Sun Wu Ji and Sun Wu Shuang, weren't killed by the Willis Clan?"
Sun Yuan Ji smiled coldly, stepping across the void, hovering above Lord Liu, forcing him to look up to talk.
Ling Xiao looked at Sun Yuan Ji, the Tai Chi Eye rotating, determining that his cultivation level was indeed early Yin-Yang Realm Eighth Layer.
Among the many martial artists from the Tianhai Empire attending the White Tiger Summit, the Yin-Yang Realm Eighth Layer is considered the backbone.
But even within the same Eighth Layer cultivation, there are vast differences, from the early stages to the pinnacle, each with their own distinctions.
This Sun Yuan Ji, among this backbone, wasn't exceptionally strong but certainly excelled over many.
Ling Xiao found him quite intriguing.
Currently, Ling Xiao's cultivation allowed him to defeat those at the Yin-Yang Realm Eighth Layer, though it wouldn't be easy.
Yet, it was this difficulty that pushed his potential further, helping his strength grow even more.
If he couldn't even handle Sun Yuan Ji, then he certainly wouldn't dare face someone of Sun Little Monster's caliber.
This once, it will be a trial for him.
"Young Master Yuan Ji, the deaths of Young Master Wu Ji and Young Master Wu Shuang were accidental, I'm willing to make amends with my life, and furthermore, we can offer you the Ice-Fire Grass from the Willis Clan at no cost.
You know well, the Ice-Fire Grass greatly benefits those with fire attribute and ice attribute inner strength.
And with your cultivation of the 'Yin-Yang Cycle Technique,' the Ice-Fire Grass will surely bring you to a higher level."
Lord Liu knew that this matter could not be easily resolved, but he was still willing to make an effort to handle it as perfectly as possible.
"Heh, do you think I've brought so many people just for show? I want your life! I want the Ice-Fire Grass too! And your daughter, since my brother died, she can begrudgingly become my bed-maid."
Sun Yuan Ji laughed coldly.
The Sun family members were all so arrogant and domineering, and while that might show a strong family, it's not always a good thing.
If poorly educated, the descendants would inevitably become more tyrannical and arrogant.
They will inevitably hit a wall someday.
"Is there no room for negotiation?"
Lord Liu frowned, not wanting to resort to violence unless he absolutely had to.
