Son-in-law Heaven Emperor Xiao Yi

"Killing you now is not too late!"

Zhang Sihai glared ferociously at Xiao Yi.

He was originally one of the esteemed four Saint Heirs of Baiyu, holding a position of unparalleled honor.

His heart harbored the ambition of pursuing Fang Qingzhu.

To become the son-in-law of Baiyu's Holy Master.

And perhaps, even inherit the title of Baiyu's Holy Land Ruler in the future.

It was precisely because of this...

That when Fang Qingzhu secretly traveled to the Southern State previously, Zhang Sihai immediately volunteered to leave Baiyu's Holy Land upon hearing the news, heading to the Southern State to personally bring Fang Qingzhu back. It was at that time he encountered Xiao Yi. Back then, Zhang Sihai had already been a powerhouse at the Longevity Secret Realm.

In his eyes, Xiao Yi at that time was merely an ant!

He could crush him with the flick of a finger!

But now...

He had long since fallen from the glorious pedestal of the Saint Heirs, degraded to being nothing more than a lackey of Chen Longxiang.

Earlier, just speaking a few more words to Fang Qingzhu had resulted in Chen Longxiang punishing him harshly.

On the other hand, Xiao Yi...

Not only had he consistently earned Fang Qingzhu's affection, but he had also now stepped into the Longevity Secret Realm, just like Zhang Sihai.

This feeling was akin to seeing a beggar, once struggling to even find food, suddenly transform into someone wealthier and more powerful than himself. The sharp contrast and reversal were so profound that Zhang Sihai couldn't accept it at all.

Xiao Yi glanced at Zhang Sihai.

Memories of the arrogant Zhang Sihai from the Southern State, who had once refused to even spare him a proper look, flashed vividly in his mind.

Now...

Xiao Yi's face took on a playful expression as he looked at Zhang Sihai: "Who would have thought that the Zhang Sihai who once claimed to know the heavens better than I do would one day become Chen Longxiang's dog!"

Hiss!

The expressions of the Inner Sect disciples all changed instantly.

Their faces showed nothing but shock and disbelief.

Even though what Xiao Yi said was indeed the truth!

In the past, the four Saint Heirs had all submitted to Chen Longxiang, becoming dogs at the feet of this rising star of Baiyu.

However...

Such words shouldn't be spoken to one's face!

Otherwise, it was a blatant slap in the face!

Huff!

Huff!

Zhang Sihai's breaths grew ragged, and even the three experts standing beside him wore icy expressions. These three were the remaining former Saint Heirs who once shared Zhang Sihai's rank. But now, their titles of glory as Saint Heirs had long since been stripped away.

In all of Baiyu, only Chen Longxiang could still carry the title of Saint Heir.

As for them...

They had become Saint Servants, mere servants to the Saint Heir!

"I want him dead!"

"I'll tear him to pieces!"

"Make the move!"

Zhang Sihai stared ferociously at Xiao Yi, his venomous gaze unwavering as he gritted his teeth and growled: "Do not interfere, leave him to me to handle alone!"

"Sihai, are you sure about this?" Liu Zhen asked worriedly.

Chen Er squinted: "Don't push yourself!"

"This man dares trespass our mountain; he must have something to fall back on. Be cautious before acting rashly," Zhang Ou warned.

They were all highly familiar with Zhang Sihai's capabilities.

Among the four Saint Heirs, Zhang Sihai was always at the bottom rank. If Xiao Yi had the audacity to challenge them, his strength must not be ordinary.

They feared that Zhang Sihai might not be a match for Xiao Yi.

Zhang Sihai sneered coldly, his face full of confidence: "Do not worry. I encountered this man years ago. Though I don't know what kind of fortuitous encounter he had to achieve a breakthrough into the Longevity Secret Realm in such a short time, it's absolutely impossible for him to surpass me!"

Seeing Zhang Sihai's determined expression, they stopped pressing further.

After all...

The deeper one progresses in cultivation, the harder it becomes to further ascend.

They too were masters of the Longevity Secret Realm, furthermore supported by Baiyu's Holy Land's boundless resources, allowing their cultivation progress to advance at terrifying speeds.

They naturally didn't believe that Xiao Yi's progress could be faster than theirs.

Since Zhang Sihai had faced Xiao Yi before and had a significant advantage in strength, his chances of prevailing now seemed highly certain.

Swish!

With a flash, Zhang Sihai instantly appeared ten meters in front of Xiao Yi. With a faint hum, an immense pressure surged out from Zhang Sihai's body, manifesting as an invisible tidal wave bearing down on Xiao Yi.

It seemed at any moment, it could crush Xiao Yi completely.

The intensity of the pressure was terrifying, enough to make hearts race.

But Xiao Yi stood unmoving in place, as if entirely frozen by Zhang Sihai's overwhelming aura.

The surrounding experts whispered among themselves: "Xiao Yi has been completely stunned by the aura?"

"Zhang Sihai truly lives up to his title as a former Saint Heir of Baiyu. This oppressive aura alone is enough to defeat ordinary Longevity Secret Realm masters..."

"Xiao Yi has been thoroughly overwhelmed. He's as good as dead!"

Within the Holy Land.

Liu Zhen breathed a sigh of relief: "Turns out he's all bark and no bite. He had me worried for nothing..."

"Pointless. With such meager strength, how dare he climb the mountain?"

"The Holy Maiden must be blind to have taken a liking to such a weakling..."

The group shook their heads in disbelief.

Zhang Sihai sneered, his arrogance soaring: "Xiao Yi, I already told you. We live in two completely different worlds. You'll never reach our level. Not in the past, not now, not ever!"

Buzz!

In his right hand, streams of black light surged between his five fingers.

The streams converged into five pitch-black spears.

The spears were impossibly sharp and incomparably deadly.

Fully formed from innate energy, even armor reinforced with spirit-grade strength could be pierced. This strike held no mercy, aimed straight for Xiao Yi's head. If successful, it would result in a severed neck and a decapitated corpse.
