Family Cultivation: My entire family are Villains

Chapter 228: 139?Qinglong Association (7)_3

It's no wonder they say demons gather the grudges of living beings; they are all extremely cunning. Hou Yuxiao hardly expressed much, yet Xiaolin immediately saw through his plan and even verbally exposed his identity, starting to threaten him.

Upon hearing the title 'Master of the Hou Family,' Bai Yunfan, Nie Xinchuan, and Li Sanyun abruptly raised their heads to look at the mask on Hou Yuxiao's face, their complexions changing drastically as they all simultaneously drew in a sharp breath of cold air.

"This... how is this possible..."

"The young one from the Hou Family... no, it's the Master of the Hou Family; Fang Jinghong is..."

"Impossible, impossible... How could it be possible? It can't be."

The three of them found it hard to believe, their voices trembling as they stammered, unable to utter a complete sentence while pointing at Hou Yuxiao.

At this moment, however, Hou Yuxiao himself had no time to pay them any mind; he simply gave Hou Yujie a look, and Hou Yujie understood, keeping a close watch on the three men.

While Hou Yujie naturally couldn't stop the three of them, he only needed to delay them for a moment for Hou Yuxiao to be confident they wouldn't escape.

His identity had already been revealed; these three could certainly not be allowed to leave.

Looking at Xiaolin, and thinking of the Maiden Hong behind him, a shadow flashed in Hou Yuxiao's pupils. Indeed, up until now, he had not thought of any effective methods to deal with her and could only hope for the six experts outside.

But placing hope on others was always an incredibly dangerous affair; if the six experts won, it would be fine, but if the Blood Demon won...

No, the Blood Demon couldn't possibly win!

Hou Yuxiao cast aside the surprise and doubt in his mind, took the Canglong Staff in hand, and walked forward two more steps, looking at Xiaolin with a low chuckle, "Brother Xiaolin speaks truth; precisely because Maiden Hong has been generous to me, I am all the more eager to know her true intentions in luring people here and ordering you to hunt her. I hope Brother Xiaolin will tell me the truth!"

By this time, the distance between him and Xiaolin was less than ten meters; he could already clearly see the golden light emanating from the Canglong Staff in Xiaolin's pupils.

At this distance...

"You dream if you think I will betray my master!"

Xiaolin's defiance caught Hou Yuxiao off guard. With a fierce shout, it rose to its feet, its limbs surging with power. The azure manes on its body stood up like steel needles under the influence of demonic power, and its enormous claws, infused with a terrifying force, raked towards his face.

"Knowing you cannot escape, you attempt a desperate struggle; how laughable!"

With a cold laugh, a fierce gleam passing through his pupils, Hou Yuxiao channeled his True Qi through the twelve major meridians into the Canglong Staff, leapt into the air, and came chopping down from above.

In front of the Cangling Divine Mountain, even a being as vast as that would pale in comparison, let alone Xiaolin with its mere hundred-meter-long demon body.

Thud...

One strike brought down, and with a cry of agony from Xiaolin, its demonic body was instantly crushed to the ground, its huge tiger head shattered by Hou Yuxiao's blow as its consciousness dissipated into nothingness.

Having failed to extract Maiden Hong's intentions from Xiaolin, a hint of darkness flickered in Hou Yuxiao's eyes. He stared at the corpse on the ground for a long time, his expression gradually easing.

"I suppose I've given my certificate of pledge; with this corpse here, the crime of colluding with demons should not fall on my head."

Of course, there was more to it than just that!

Turning his head again, Hou Yuxiao looked towards the three men behind him.

Bai Yunfan, Li Sanyun, and Nie Xinchuan all trembled, no more hesitation, directly kneeling on the ground and bowing respectfully to Hou Yuxiao.

"Nie Xinchuan is willing to lead the Hongdao Gang under the banner of... Leader Fang Long."

"Bai Yunfan is willing to bring the Bai Clan to support Leader Fang Long."

"The Medicine Dust Sect will, from now on, hold Leader Fang Long in the highest regard!"

Hearing the three men's words, a satisfied smile finally appeared in Hou Yuxiao's eyes.

"Since this is the case, take out your Copper Seals and hand them to me!"

Upon hearing that they must hand over their Copper Seals, the three men hesitated for a long time, but looking at the huge corpse of the tiger demon before them, they eventually gritted their teeth and took out their Copper Seals to hand over to Hou Yuxiao.

With the three Copper Seals clenched in his hand, Hou Yuxiao finally revealed a genuine smile.

"Gentlemen, please rise!"
