Chapter 0009: The Bloodbath of Thousand Hands
Thousand-Hand Blood Butcher Yun... Yun Meng! Upon seeing Yun Meng, Zhang Yong's pupils suddenly constricted, flashing a hint of fear.
Thank you for your hard work, Uncle Meng!" Yun Qingyan nodded but did not take the banknote; instead, he spoke, "Uncle Meng, please come back to assist me!"
Moreover, there was a strong smell of blood emanating from him, giving the impression of a killing god emerging from a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Yun Meng is his elder, yet also his subordinate. From the perspective of someone in a higher position, Yun Meng's heartfelt words are enough to move Yun Qingyan deeply
Young Master Yan, this is the one hundred thousand taels of silver that Zhang Delie has compensated!" Yunmeng took out a stack of banknotes from his body, each with a denomination of five thousand taels.
With a thunderous sound, a violent aura surged from the middle-aged man Yun Meng, and in the next moment, he had already launched an attack against the three guards
"Go and instruct Young Master Yan!" A devoted expression unconsciously appeared on Yunmeng's face.
The small Zhang's martial arts school actually dares to offend Young Master Yan? This is simply seeking death! At that moment, the middle-aged man Yun Meng descended from the air in front of Yun Qingyan, just as Zhang Yong's three bodyguards were launching a joint attack.
It is at least
Therefore, in Yun Qingyan's heart, there is an extraordinary respect for Yun Meng
The next morning, shortly after Yun Qingyan had finished breakfast, Yun Meng had already come to find him
Yun Meng nodded with satisfaction. Although he had always regarded himself as a subordinate in front of Yun Qingyan, in his heart, he had always viewed Yun Qingyan as a child of his own family
In the present day, within the Yun family, there are few individuals whom Yun Qingyan can fully trust; apart from his uncle and cousin, there is also the Yun Meng before him
All died from shattered hearts
Uncle Meng, Yan'er will catch up with you later to reminisce. For now, there is an annoying fly that needs to be dealt with!" Yun Qingyan said as he walked towards Zhang Yong.
Young Master Yan, you ... ... " Yun Meng looked at Yun Qingyan in shock; these words had never been spoken even by Yun Qingyan's father back in the day
However, the materials required for the Spirit Gathering Array are quite expensive; even for a small Spirit Gathering Array, the materials needed exceed 50,000 taels of silver
... ...
What Yun Meng did not know was that his agitation was not only due to Yun Qingyan's promise but also because he was subconsciously influenced by the aura of authority that Yun Qingyan inadvertently exuded.
Yun Qingyan nodded in satisfaction
They have no choice but to agree! A cold glint suddenly flashed in Yun Qingyan's eyes. Over the years, Yun Meng has always been a sharp sword in the hands of the Yun family, handling many unspeakable matters in secret.
Three years ago, you could not provoke me; three years later, you are even less able to provoke me! Yun Qingyan said with narrowed eyes, and suddenly, he was about to strike to end Zhang Yong's life
Thank you, Uncle Meng! Yun Qingyan nodded and said, he was in need of money at the moment, and with one hundred thousand taels of silver, he would be able to purchase the materials to set up the Gathering Spirit Array
Uncle Meng, rest assured, I will definitely find them!" said Yun Qingyan, who already knew in his heart that the three of them were at the Heavenly Sword Sect. The reason he could not go looking for them now was that his strength was too weak. However, with the speed at which he was recovering his cultivation, it would not be long before he could set out to find them.
However, although Yun Meng has killed countless people, he has only done so for the Yun family. Not a single life he has taken was due to his own selfish desires.
The notorious name of the Thousand-Hand Blood Butcher is well-known, and the prominent scar on his face makes him appear extremely fierce and menacing. As a result, even members of the Yun family tend to keep their distance from him.
"Young Master Yan, I apologize for my tardiness, please forgive me!" A voice filled with vigor resounded, and the next moment, a middle-aged man exuding a strong scent of blood flew out from within the tavern
Young Master Yan, are you alright? I have heard for a long time that you have returned. Although I wanted to visit you, unfortunately... it is somewhat inconvenient!" Yun Meng turned around to look at Yun Qingyan, revealing a bitter smile.
It is precisely for this reason that Yunmeng was assigned to the Dongsheng Restaurant as the manager
"Uncle Meng, there is no need for you to take it to heart. You are the elder, and it is only right for Yan'er to come and see you." Yun Qingyan spoke to Yun Meng without the slightest hint of awkwardness, even displaying the demeanor of a junior.
Zhang Deli, is the master of the Zhang Family Martial Arts School
"You should go to the market now and procure these items..." Yun Qingyan listed nineteen types of materials required for arranging the Spirit Gathering Array in one breath
After Yunmeng detained Zhang Yong, he sent someone to the Zhang family martial arts school to inform Zhang Deli that he should bring money to release the person early tomorrow morning
It is not that one does not dare, but rather that one cannot
The Spirit Sea has been destroyed, not only resulting in the complete loss of one's cultivation, but also rendering any future cultivation impossible
"No problem, it's just a trivial matter!" Yun Qingyan sensed the strong smell of blood and immediately knew who it was. Yun Meng, a seventh-tier star realm practitioner, nicknamed the Thousand-Handed Blood Butcher, was the manager sent by the Yun family to the Dongsheng Tavern
Young Master Yan, Zhang Deli only has one offspring, Zhang Yong, so he will definitely save Zhang Yong no matter what" Yun Meng then turned to Yun Qingyan and said
The scar on Yunmeng's face was left from blocking a blade for Yun Qingyan's father in the past
Yun Meng is renowned as the executioner of the Yun family, with countless lives lost at his hands. Not only do outsiders regard Yun Meng with immense trepidation, but even many members of the Yun family themselves are filled with fear and apprehension towards him
Uncle Meng, please tell me honestly, do you have any grievances against the family in your heart? Yun Qingyan said this while quietly looking at Yun Meng.
This is the aura of a true superior being cultivated by Yun Qingyan after becoming the Immortal Emperor, which even the immortals of the Immortal Realm cannot help but be unconsciously influenced by, leading them to numbingly submit to Yun Qingyan, let alone the mortal, Yun Meng
Yun Qingyan paused for a moment and then said, "If there is any remaining silver, use it all to purchase mandala flowers and golden thread silver flowers. Yes, buy as much as you can!"
Under normal circumstances, the position of the clan leader can only be held by direct descendants of the clan leader. Similarly, the positions of the four elders can only be held by the direct descendants of the four elders
In a single encounter, three guards of the fifth tier of the Star Realm have already fallen to the ground, lifeless, each bearing a visible palm imprint on their chest.
The one hundred thousand taels of silver reported by Yunmeng is precisely the limit that the Zhang family's martial arts school can afford
As for the old steward Yun Yuanlin, he is currently trustworthy enough for Yun Qingyan to place complete confidence in him
Alright, then it shall be as Uncle Meng says! However, while the death penalty may be avoided, the punishment for living cannot be escaped..." Before Yun Qingyan's voice had completely faded, he suddenly struck Zhang Yong's abdomen with a powerful palm.
What burst open in his lower abdomen was not internal organs, but the sea of spiritual energy that martial artists use to contain their spiritual power
With a puffing sound
"A minor character like Zhang Yong, whether he lives or dies, will not hinder Young Master Yan. It would be better to make use of him, allowing the Zhang family martial arts school to pay for Zhang Yong's life." Yun Meng looked at Yun Qingyan and asked in an inquiring tone: "What does Young Master Yan think of this proposal?"
At this point, Yun Meng abruptly changed the subject, saying, "But I have never regretted it, because every family needs someone to silently contribute behind the scenes"
Yun Qingyan, what do you want to do! Zhang Yong looked at Yun Qingyan, feeling a sense of unease in his heart. When Yun Qingyan was only three or four meters away from him, a chill ran down his back; he sensed a murderous intent emanating from Yun Qingyan.
Oh? Yun Qingyan looked at Yun Meng with confusion. The Yun Meng he knew was not someone who was soft-hearted. Otherwise, just now, he would not have killed Zhang Yong's three bodyguards with a single strike.
"Young Master Yan, hold on a moment before you act!" Yun Meng suddenly said, his figure flashing as he appeared beside Yun Qingyan and Zhang Yong.
... ...
However, very soon, Xie Xiaoyan's calculations fell through
Yun Qingtian's cousin, Yun Xuan, not only lost his cultivation due to the destruction of Linghai but also lost the ability to practice.
Yun Qingyan's words clearly indicate an intention to break this rule, a rule that has existed since the establishment of the Yun family.
Alas, it is a pity that your parents, as well as Cai'er, all went missing a year ago... Yunmeng suddenly sighed
To say that there is none would be a lie! Yun Meng spoke without a second thought, her eyes filled with desolation. I have always been loyal and dedicated to my family, achieving countless merits both big and small, but how has the family treated me over the years? Young Master Yan, I will not hide it from you; I not only have grievances but even harbor resentment...
Young Master Yan, I also wish to stay and assist you, but I fear that the four elders will not agree... Yun Meng let out a bitter smile, a trace of barely perceptible disappointment flashing in his eyes
When she smiles, it is particularly fierce
Zhang Yong felt as if his internal organs had burst open, and suddenly, a mouthful of congealed blood spewed from his mouth
Uncle Meng, I will not say any more superfluous sentimental words. I, Yun Qingyan, assure you that from this moment on, the family will no longer let you down!" Yun Qingyan said to Yun Meng with a serious expression.
The four elders have held their high positions for too long, each on the verge of losing their sense of reality; it is time for a cleanup. Yun Qingyan said softly, a sharp cold light flashing in his eyes
"Yun Qingyan, you... how ruthless you are, to actually ruin my spiritual sea!" Zhang Yong looked at Yun Qingyan with a mix of fear and resentment.
His notorious reputation stems from the numerous killings he has committed. Each person he has killed has been either an overt enemy or a potential adversary of the Yun family
In fact, it is not only families but also nations; while a group of people enjoys a glamorous life, there is another group silently making sacrifices, risking their lives to protect their homes and defend their country
Ironically, the descendants of the Yun family, while enjoying the protection of Yun Meng, still maintain a respectful distance from him
As the name suggests, the Gathering Spirit Array is a formation that can concentrate the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. It can gather all the spiritual energy within a certain radius into one place
Yun Qingyan then bid farewell to Yun Meng and returned to the Yun family.
"You haven't been killed? It is already a mercy from Young Master Yan! Moreover, if the Zhang family martial arts school cannot produce 100,000 taels of silver as compensation for Young Master Yan before tomorrow, you won't even have your life!" Yun Meng snorted coldly, his face full of ferocity.
"Uncle Meng, there is something I need you to take care of immediately," said Yun Qingyan
The position of the patriarch is hereditary, and the positions of the four elders are also hereditary
When Yun Qingyan first returned, he planned to set up a small gathering spirit array in the courtyard where he resided
On his face, there is a striking scar that winds down from the left side of his forehead, passing through his left eye, and extending to his jaw.
Young Master Yan... on the menacing face of Yun Meng, tears overflowed uncontrollably. In his eyes, Yun Qingyan was enough to represent the Yun family; with Yun Qingyan's words, he would not hesitate to die for the family.
