Chapter 3, Establishing Authority
Xiao Qiyue struck down again with a punch, causing the table to jump with a bang, already showing a slight crack.
In July, before the "Heavenly Gate" was opened, if you seek death, that is your own business, but it tarnishes the reputation of our Xiao family, which is truly nonsensical. Uncle Xiao Gang is a straightforward and forthright person, and he did not hold back his words simply because Xiao Qiyue is the son of the family head
No!
A gust of airflow surged, yet Xiao Qiyue remained completely unmoved
Xiao Qiyue's eyes were bloodshot, her face contorted as she suddenly let out a loud shout
"Do not be agitated, July. You may step back for now. We will make a decision regarding your involvement in apprehending the thief after further discussion." Xiao Tiancheng misunderstood, thinking that his son was anxious due to leading the team to catch the pervert.
Xiao Yang, enraged, leaped up like a carp, roaring like a tiger in the mountains and forests, with a fierce and savage roar. He casually grabbed a thick broom handle from the corner of the room and struck down with the force of splitting Mount Hua.
"Nonsense! You have no idea how terrifying that guy is, do you think this is just a game?" Xiao Tiancheng said sternly.
"You have only exerted three points of effort." Xiao Qiyue shook her head expressionlessly
To actually bang the table in front of someone, how disrespectful
When the turtle withdraws its head, that is impossible! Xiao Qiyue's eyes shone brightly, clearly expressing her resolute stance
This time, not only fists were used, but also feet were involved
"Alright, Xiao Yang, go to the steward and collect a first-grade Blood Nourishing Pill, along with thirty taels of silver," said Xiao Tiancheng, as a way to give his younger brother Xiao Yun some face
Hahaha
However, the area around the spring was trembling, and there was not much change in the flow of blood and energy.
This punch came with a strong wind noise, five parts strength. However, Xiao Qiyue remained as unmoving as a mountain.
"Third... Third Young Master, have you reached the Fifth Layer? But you look like you're only at the First Layer?"
"Young Master, please pay attention, I am giving it my all!" Everyone has their pride, and Liu Xue'er is no exception, her vital energy gushing forth like a fountain from the heavenly gate.
It seems that it is still lacking a bit of refinement, and I need to find something unconventional to engage in
Moreover, as a highly regarded maid of the Xiao family, the cultivation technique she practices was personally bestowed by Xiao Qiyue's mother, which is undoubtedly superior to that of an average third-tier martial artist.
Brother San, I give up, I give up!" As soon as Xiao Yang saw that I was making a name for myself, he quickly shouted.
This indicates that, compared to Xiao Yang, although they have significantly changed their views about themselves, they have not yet reached the point of complete agreement.
Immediately, the clan elders and uncles in the hall straightened their hair and all turned towards Xiao Qiyue, as if they were soldiers awaiting inspection
However, with Xiao Tiancheng as the head of the family, everyone gave him some face and pretended not to see.
However, there are also a few who, after a brief struggle, turned towards themselves, but their strands of energy did not overflow and run towards themselves
Xiao Qiyue understood that the changes in the spring eye represented changes in the realm, and the opening of the Second Heaven Gate was imminent; whether she could achieve a breakthrough in one fell swoop depended on this very moment
"You shameless! What kind of hero is it to launch a sneak attack?" Xiao Yang shouted as he struggled
Crane dances in the nine heavens
It is different now, I have recovered
I give in, I give in... After all, it is a favor done in passing, and the clan members in the hall began to nod in agreement.
Not wanting to be a laughingstock, show your true abilities? Third Uncle Xiao Yun's son, Xiao Yang, has always looked down on himself since childhood, believing himself to be a disgrace to the Xiao family, a useless person, and naturally, he has been sarcastic and mocking from the sidelines
Her own sarcasm is stored, and the explosive energy is six to seven times greater than hers
Boom
Suddenly, all the tribespeople were taken aback. What does this young man intend to do? You just cruelly tormented Xiao Yang, yet you cannot be so arrogant in front of us elders, can you
Boom ... ... Clap clap ... ...
Xiao Tiancheng finally erupted in anger, slamming the table, glaring, and pointing at his son as he reprimanded him
Xiao Qiyue tilted her head to the side, like a divine dragon sweeping its tail, delivering a horizontal strike. With a crisp sound, Xiao Yang was sent flying like a dog eating excrement.
This just opened the heavenly gate, and the source spring has a width of one zhang, yet Liu Xue'er, although she is at the third level of cultivation, has only managed to expand the source spring to half a chi at most
It seems that this guy has truly changed
Bang
Everyone in the hall was secretly taken aback; this young man was quite ruthless, almost as if he were not the same person compared to the previous 'little sheep'.
You rascal, so you were breaking through, you startled me. Uncle Xiao Gang burst into laughter
"Elder brother, July is quite good, the Double Heaven Gate has opened." Xiao Yun clasped his hands in congratulations
Hehe, are you at ease now?" Xiao Qiyue smiled, confirming her own speculation
Ah
The faces of the clan elders turned ashen; is it appropriate for you, the son of the family head, to be so arrogant? Do you not uphold the values of respecting the elderly and cherishing the young, as well as civility and manners?
"Alright, if you can withstand three of my punches, I will take you there immediately!" Liu Xue'er nodded decisively and threw a punch. Although she had delicate hands and a slender waist, Liu Xue'er was undoubtedly a practitioner of the third level of the Heavenly Gate.
"I give up, July, you should stop!" Xiao Yun shouted as well.
"I submit... I submit to the third brother..." Xiao Yang struggled to open his mouth, spitting out fresh blood
Upon hearing this, Liu Xue'er outside the door couldn't help but curl her lips, her face openly displaying an expression that said, 'You are in for misfortune.' However, this expression was not understood by the people present in the hall
From now on, he must not be viewed with outdated perspectives; otherwise, it will be unclear how one could end up in such a predicament.
A heavy punch struck the conference table, causing it to tremble momentarily without breaking.
"Do you submit?" Xiao Qiyue said with an air of dominance as she stepped on his chest with her foot
At this moment, Xiao Tiancheng was presiding over a family meeting. Upon seeing Xiao Qiyue approach, he couldn't help but frown and said, "Why are you here causing trouble instead of sleeping well?"
Xiao Tiancheng couldn't help but frown; my son does not have a 'weapon' in his hand
Xiao Qiyue, with blood-red eyes, completely disregarded everyone at the scene, delivering another powerful punch while shouting wildly and arrogantly.
"No! It should be the Triple Heaven Gate instead." Uncle Xiao Bocang, with his sharp gaze, stroked his beard and shook his head
"If you want to hang out with me, you need to show some skills. Otherwise, I, San Ge, cannot afford to lose face." This was too arrogant; Xiao Qiyue's response suddenly reminded several individuals in the hall of Li Hao, who had been scared half to death just a few hours earlier.
Because a portion of the gas emerged from their filaments and rushed towards themselves
Boom
Are you convinced!
Get the hell out of here
Xiao Qiyue's figure resembled that of a crane, as she leapt into the air, balancing on one foot atop the broomstick. The broom was pressed downwards, and in that instant, her other foot kicked forward
Liu Xue'er retreated seven or eight steps, her face filled with shock as she looked at Xiao Qiyue, who remained motionless and leisurely gazed at her.
Xiao Qiyue let out a mad laugh, and her vital energy surged forth like a tidal wave. In just a few breaths, she had already broken through the second heavenly gate.
In front of the astonished members of the Xiao family, Xiao Qiyue took no time to speak and directly stepped forward with two strides, delivering a powerful kick that knocked Xiao Yang down
"Are you not convinced? If you are not convinced, then your face is unnecessary." Xiao Qiyue did not care about anything else and, upon landing, stomped hard on her cousin's face, severely distorting and deforming half of it.
The profound mysteries re-emerge, the sound of the Buddha resonates once more. Xiao Qiyue discovers that her field of vision is wildly expanding outward with herself as the axis, 31 zhang... 32 zhang... 35 zhang
Even if we settle the account with two storefronts, I, as your son, ultimately remain a laughingstock
Deng deng deng ... ...
The clan elders sitting at the table all turned green with anger, you are truly too arrogant, showing no respect at all, do you really consider us as if we are invisible
The strands of hair on the heads of several other uncles and clan elders were originally facing in the opposite direction, but now some of them have straightened up, likely indicating that they no longer view themselves through colored glasses
This situation is quite amusing, a group of old fellows is feeling quite frustrated inside
In an instant, Xiao Qiyue felt a tremor throughout her entire body
July, this matter is not to be taken lightly. We have already agreed to give them the two shops at the east end of the street. Uncle Xiao Bocang shook his head in frustration.
Xiao Qiyue understood that the family intended to spend a large sum of money on the children of the Li and Zhao families, which indeed would be quite a loss of face
Xiao Qiyue discovered that the strands of energy emerging from Xiao Yang's head were green, and they were resolutely directed towards her
Xiao Tiancheng's face turned a shade of iron blue, his lips trembled as he raised his hand in a swing.
However, he also wanted to see what remarkable performance his useless son would display today, so he remained still
Boom boom boom
Thus, everyone looked at Xiao Tiancheng with serious expressions, implying that you understand the meaning, your son should manage it himself
Hi
"Stop it, July, we are all convinced." Second brother Xiao Gang also nodded and said
"Are you not convinced? Get ready, let's have a proper fight." Xiao Qiyue stepped back to the empty space in the hall and pointed at Xiao Yang, saying, "Come on! Use all the strength you have."
Could it be that after being knocked unconscious, one has undergone a gender transformation
A glance covers a hundred meters
"Are you trying to scratch an itch?" Xiao Qiyue raised an eyebrow, her expression one of disdain, clearly intending to provoke her.
Hi! Xiao Yang was furious, mustering all his strength, his muscles tensed, he kicked off the ground, and his body lunged forward like a fierce tiger descending the mountain, pouncing towards Xiao Qiyue
Thus, dealing with the first realm and the third realm is a breeze
"Go to hell!" Xiao Tiancheng's face turned black with anger, and he was about to strike with a palm.
Xiao Qiyue exhaled a breath of turbid air, withdrew her fist, stood upright, and gave a deep bow to the clan elders and uncles in the hall, saying, "Thank you for helping me break through"
"Third Brother, from now on I will follow you." Xiao Yang is certainly an understanding person. Previously, he looked down on Xiao Qiyue because the original master was indeed too incompetent, which cannot be said to reflect Xiao Yang's bad character. Now, the attitude is completely opposite.
That guy just jumped up and gave Xiao Qiyue several hard slaps, leaving him dizzy and bruised, to the point where he couldn't even find his way back north
Father, I want to lead the team to capture the psychopath
Moreover, a trace of azure energy unexpectedly emerged from the strands of qi and rushed towards him, ultimately being directly absorbed by the 'Great Freedom Causal Eye'
Step back
Bang
Instantly, I felt a surge of energy, as if I had suddenly consumed a large bowl of restorative medicine, bringing an overwhelming sense of comfort
Father, I had fallen into a deep sleep earlier, while my elder brother was lying in bed, and my second brother was not present. The Li family and the Zhao family indeed cannot find any good reason to intimidate us.
At the same time, the spring under the giant dragon-shaped mountain head, entwined by nine dragons, within the Heavenly Gate was also expanding, reaching a size of "1 zhang 1 chi"
However, my cousin Xiao Yun's son, Xiao Yang, who had just received a favor, quickly called out, "Elder brother, he might have been momentarily confused."
"Do you submit or not, do you submit or not, do you submit or not..." Xiao Qiyue's face twisted in anger, showing no regard for my dignity. After delivering dozens of punches and kicks, the cracks on the table grew larger, and it was sinking in everywhere.
Xiao Yang let out a sharp scream as his chin was struck, two bloody teeth flew out, and he was kicked backward, crashing hard to the ground, causing a bump to swell on the back of his head
