Chapter 113 Countdown
"It's the Mohists!"
Upon hearing this name, Xiao Ding's expression turned somewhat solemn. He had originally thought it was an outside mercenary group that had dispatched reinforcements to integrate Shimo City, but he hadn't expected it to be the Mo family.
"The Mohist school? Is it a very large family?"
Xiao Yan was basically the kind of person who didn't care about anything in the Xiao family, and he had no interest in the gossip of the various forces.
Even if you ask him to name the major families in the Gama Empire, he only knows two: the Nalan family, to which his fiancée belongs, and the Mittel family, the largest merchant guild in the Gama Empire.
"It's quite large. The Mo family is one of the four major families in the northeast of the Jia Ma Empire. The family's elder, Mo Cheng, was a disciple of the Yunlan Sect, but later left the Yunlan Sect to manage the family."
However, over the years, he has never severed his ties with the Yunlan Sect and has paid huge tributes to them every year. Therefore, after leaving, he was not only not hunted down by the Yunlan Sect's law enforcement team, but also obtained a position as an outer sect steward of the Yunlan Sect.
Even though this position isn't official, it allows for certain activities to be carried out in the name of the Yunlan Sect under certain circumstances, and the Yunlan Sect has basically turned a blind eye to this over the years.
Xiao Ding introduced the Mo family to Xiao Yan. Generally speaking, the Mo family can only be considered second-rate in the entire Jia Ma Empire, but because of their connection with the Yunlan Sect, many powerful families dare not touch them casually.
"Ha, what a cowardly bully, but too bad for them, they've met their match this time."
Xiao Yan's expression was indifferent; he had already declared the fate of the Mo family in his heart.
Upon hearing Xiao Yan say this, Xiao Ding immediately advised, "Little Yan, don't be impulsive. The Mo family is a Douling power, and it has developed rapidly over the years with the backing of the Yunlan Sect."
Its eldest elder, Mo Cheng, was nicknamed "Executioner Mo." He once single-handedly slaughtered the entire Black Whirlwind Mountain bandit group, which had three Grand Masters and countless other Grand Masters.
This bandit group, which caused the empire so much trouble, could not be completely eliminated despite repeated encirclements and suppressions; instead, it suffered heavy losses.
The fact that Mo Cheng was able to wipe him out single-handedly is enough to demonstrate his formidable strength.
However, Xiao Yan didn't care about Xiao Ding's words: "Heh, if a Dou Ling can't even deal with a band of mountain bandits composed of several Da Dou Shi, then he might as well commit suicide on the spot."
Second brother, don't worry, even if the Yunlan Sect Master were to appear today, the Mo family would still have to pay for their blood debt!
Xiao Yan has now basically passed his growth period. With the ability to fight against Dou Huang, he is probably among the top five of the ten strongest people in the Jia Ma Empire. He has no fear of a mere Mo family.
Seeing Xiao Yan's confident demeanor, Xiao Ding suddenly laughed, seemingly understanding his younger brother somewhat: "Good, as expected of Xiao Yanzi. I might not believe anyone else, but your second brother absolutely believes you!"
"We'll talk about the Mo family later. Although we don't know why they captured Qinglin and then brought people to cause trouble for us, none of that matters. What matters is that the Mo family will disappear from here on out."
But before that, there are some things to do.
"Second brother, go and distribute these pills, and also clean up the mercenary group. I have something to do, I'll be right back."
After speaking, Xiao Yan's wings materialized on his back, and he instantly flew into the sky before disappearing.
"These... seem different from the wings from last time. Could they really be wings formed from battle aura?"
As Xiao Ding watched Xiao Yan disappear, a huge wave of emotions surged in his heart. Could it be that his younger brother had really become a Dou Wang?
Xiao Yan arrived on the road and casually inquired about the location of the Storm Mercenary Group.
Nowadays, the Storm Mercenary Group has been injected with a lot of external forces, and in reality, the original Storm Mercenary Group members no longer have the final say.
The Mohists did this simply to deceive others, create the appearance of internal strife, and then withdraw these people without anyone noticing.
Xiao Yan arrived at the gate of the Storm Mercenary Group and infused his Dou Qi into his voice: "I'll give you ten counts. Anyone still hiding inside this tortoise shell will never have another chance to come out."
Xiao Yan usually repays kindness tenfold, but now that the other party has trampled on his face and almost killed his second brother, it is already magnanimous of Xiao Yan to give them ten seconds.
"Nine!"
"eight!"
"seven!"
"Damn it, who dares to yell at the gates of my Storm Mercenary Group? They're asking for trouble, aren't they?"
When Xiao Yan counted down to seven, many members of the mercenary group finally came out, somewhat impatiently.
These people are not very strong, but because the Storm Mercenary Group has now added many powerful people and conquered many other mercenary groups, their recent behavior has become very arrogant.
"six!"
Xiao Yan ignored these small fry and continued counting down.
His appearance enraged the mercenaries: "Looks like he's looking for trouble, brothers, take him down!"
"five!"
Faced with the swarm of mercenaries, Xiao Yan stood still, the word he uttered containing a trace of fighting spirit directly blasting all the mercenaries away.
These mercenaries were all spitting out blood, as if spraying blood rain.
"Four!"
The fact that he could severely injure more than twenty mercenary fighters with a single blow finally alerted those inside, and people began to emerge from within.
"Who dares to cause trouble here!"
Three Battle Masters stepped forward. Their cultivation techniques were all at the Profound Rank, making them far superior to these lowly mercenaries. Clearly, they were not original members of the Storm Mercenary Group.
"three!"
Seeing that Xiao Yan was still counting down, the three Dou Shi felt that they were being ignored. One of the three-star Dou Shi jumped out and smiled contemptuously when he saw that Xiao Yan was just a young man under twenty years old.
"I thought it was someone important, but he's just a kid. Brothers, no need to lift a finger, watch me capture and kill him!"
"two!"
"Stop pretending! Die!"
[Low-level Xuan Rank - Golden Edge Slash]!
This person was a metal-attribute Dou Shi, wielding a large cleaver, and unleashed a golden blade of energy as he slashed towards Xiao Yan.
However, this seemingly invincible golden slash was shattered by Xiao Yan's flip of his hand, and the residual power of the shattered slash even struck the Dou Shi directly.
His body exploded instantly, turning into a cloud of blood mist.
"—!"
"Ah, the third brother was defeated so quickly! His opponent must be at the Great Battle Master level. Quickly, go and fetch the captain!"
However, just as the two turned around, preparing to enter the Storm Mercenary Group, they felt a terrifying attraction coming from ahead.
They looked up abruptly and realized that, without them noticing, the entire mercenary group's encampment had been enveloped by a massive fire tornado!
With a single strike, the entire Storm Mercenary Group was reduced to nothingness by the fiery tornado in an instant!
