Chapter 196 - 194: This Palm Print, Left by Tai Yi!

Chapter 196: Chapter 194: This Palm Print, Left by Tai Yi!

Scrape!

He pulled out the long spear.

Bending forward, leaning back.

Liang Hui’s body was like a drawn bow, all his strength gathered in the arm holding the spear.

At the same time, golden qi-blood soared, illuminating half of the vault of heaven.

Kill!

The long spear left his hand like a meteor streaking across the sky, stabbing towards the blue-robed middle-aged man standing above in the sky.

This spear was too fast! Too fierce! Too absolute!

In an instant, it covered the distance between them, shattered the True Qi around his body and pressed against the chest of the Lan Family patriarch.

Inner Strength!

Qi-Blood!

Muscles!

Move for me!

The blue-robed middle-aged man screamed with all his might, trying to mobilize the True Qi within his body.

But at this moment, it was too slow.

Rip!

The heavens were stained with blood as the long spear pierced the enemy’s chest, carrying a golden afterglow towards the City Lord’s Mansion.

Withdrawing his extended arm, Liang Hui stood erect, looking ahead.

"Hatred and enmity, from this moment on, ended," he said.

Boom!

With a massive roar, thunder and fire rose from the center of the city.

They broke through the clouds, obscured the sun and erased all traces of the Lan Family.

Ignoring the shocked and frightened gazes around him,

he turned to the side, his gaze gentle as he looked at the young girl in yellow.

"It’s over now, take me to the Huang Family," he said.

"Alright, Brother Tai Yi, mother will be shocked when she sees you," responded Huang Ying without hesitation.

Her steps were steady as she led the way, unaffected by the recent slaughter.

Suddenly, the girl paused in her steps.

"The long spear is still in the center of the city, Brother Tai Yi, let’s go retrieve it," she said.

In her view, a weapon that could nail down a Qi Meridian Warrior with a single blow was certainly of immense value.

Liang Hui shook his head; that spear strike had been an overload for the Thunderflame Spear itself, which should now have fractured.

Moreover, this long spear, crafted at the Marrow Refining Level, could no longer keep up with his progress and needed replacement.

"The Thunderflame Spear, its materials all sourced from this place, should rightfully crumble within Leiji City," he said.

"Is that so?"

"If Brother Tai Yi doesn’t want it, I’ll keep it for myself," Huang Ying said, a sly glint in her eyes as she waved gently at the clanspeople watching nearby, signaling them to come forward.

"Young mistress, Predecessor Tai Yi," said a Great Han dressed in a yellow robe, as he immediately jogged over with a respectful expression.

"Huang Ba, go and retrieve the long spear from the center of the city," she ordered.

"As you command," he responded.

With that, the Great Han dressed in yellow robes sped off.

"Now, let’s keep moving," Huang Ying said cheerfully.

The young man’s face held a hint of helplessness as he followed at a slower pace.

The two quickly vanished at the end of the street.

And the slaughter that had occurred in Leiji City was also known to the remaining two great families.

The high-ranking members of the Du and Zhu families looked incredulously at the intelligence they had obtained.

In the Du Family’s council hall,

all the high-ranking members discussed animatedly.

"In just two years, how could Tai Yi have grown to this extent? It’s impossible."

"The City Lord was a Qi Meridian Warrior, yet he was nailed dead by a single spear."

"Du Shi, you once fought him in the secret realm; what’s your take?"

In an instant, the room fell silent as everyone’s gaze turned to a young man sitting in the corner.

He was one of the only three survivors from the five great family scions in the secret realm two years ago, and the one who had fought Tai Yi head-on and lived.

Back then, most of the Du Family had mocked Du Shi’s embarrassing ordeal in the secret realm.

But at this moment, the only things in everyone’s eyes were wonder and trepidation.

Even many believed that the young man had likely concealed his true strength.

Du Shi felt the gazes from around him and was likewise uneasy, carefully recalling every scene that had occurred in the secret realm.

His hand unconsciously rested on his chest, where that person had left a palm print, although he had erased it.

His hand pressed down, while the Qi-Blood within his body began to settle.

Hu~

Du Shi exhaled a breath of turbid air.

Crrrack!

He tore open his robe, his expression calm as he spoke.

"This palm print was left by Tai Yi. I did not die!"

"He once said, henceforth, all grievances would be dissolved."

With just two sentences, all the high-ranking members of the Du Family were extremely grave.

The entire Feng Family was unable to withstand even one punch from Tai Yi, and the Lan Family was annihilated with a single spear thrust; the significance of the palm print on Du Shi’s chest was self-evident.

Even though Tai Yi was merely at the Bone Refining stage at that time, Du Shi was definitely not simple.

This became a consensus among the Du Family.

Everyone wanted to take a closer look at the palm print on his chest, but Du Shi covered it up very quickly.

"Henceforth, Du Shi, you will be the heir of our family." A hoary yet sincere voice came from the higher-ups.

At that moment, Du Shi’s expression was still composed, and the unease in his heart also gradually subsided.

He realized that he might have encountered the greatest opportunity of his life.

The Zhu Family felt the same.

High-ranking members took turns to ask Choo Miao Wei about the events that occurred in the secret realm.

...

Meanwhile.

Huang Family Manor.

In a secluded and elegant courtyard, three figures were sitting cross-legged on meditation cushions, with a teapot and cups placed before them.

The beautiful lady in purple robes sat opposite Liang Hui.

Her black hair was coiled up at the back of her head with a jade hairpin, revealing her snow-white, slightly plump face, with thick lips and a mild, gentle gaze.

"Years have passed since our last meeting. I never expected that you’d have grown so strong when we met again."

Liang Hui did not immediately reply, instead he reached out to pour himself a cup of tea, and took a sip.

"Madam Huang, I’m grateful for your protection back then, and the Qi Meridian Notes benefitted me greatly."

"There is no need for that. It was just a trade after all, you completed the task, and naturally, I gave you the rewards,"

her voice carried a naturally enchanting charm.

"It’s different," the young man finished the tea in his cup in one gulp.

The bold move against the Feng and Hu Families when leaving the secret realm, as well as the advice when departing from the black market, these were not part of the deal.

Good or bad, gratitude or grudge, he could tell them apart.

He placed the tea cup on the table, and with a flick of his hand, a Jade Slip appeared on the table.

The young man pressed on the Jade Slip, pushing it towards Madam Huang.

"This Sword Scripture, which I obtained by chance, have a look."

"No need for that," the beautiful lady frowned lightly, wanting to refuse.

"I am a person who repays even the smallest favor,"

Liang Hui said sincerely as he rubbed the teacup.

Seeing this, Huang Ying, who was sitting to the side, took the teapot and poured tea for her mother and Tai Yi, remained silent and watched quietly.

Madam Huang looked at the young man opposite to her, her fair hand reached out to press on the Jade Slip.

Her consciousness was also immersed in it.

In an instant, the enchanting face changed color, and she exclaimed in surprise.

"Primordial Spirit Sword Scripture!"

It wasn’t that she lacked composure, but a Taoist Scripture or Sword Scripture of the Primordial Spirit Level was far too precious.

Huang Ying’s eyes also showed shock.

Liang Hui shook his head, picked up his teacup, and said softly, "It’s incomplete, missing a great part, but it’s quite suitable for the path of your cultivation, you could use it as a reference."

"Even so, it is extraordinarily precious," Madam Huang murmured.

With reluctance in her eyes, she eventually pushed it back.

Liang Hui did not pay attention to her reaction, downed the tea in his cup, and placed it on the long table.

He tilted his head, speaking to Huang Ying, "I need to speak with your mother; you should leave first."

Huang Ying nodded and left the courtyard.
