Chapter 135 - Regret

Only Song Ling was dancing around excitedly to celebrate. In Azure Billow City, Liu Wuxie had declared that he would wipe out the Wan and Tian Clans, which he had accomplished. Subsequently, under Mu Yueying’s intervention, Liu Wuxie established a one-year agreement with the Xue Clan, prohibiting anyone from entering Azure Billow City. This agreement also provided Liu Wuxie with a respite.

When Liu Wuxie was done, he ruthlessly pressed his right foot down.

“ARGHHH!” A heart-wrenching scream erupted from Xue Baisheng’s mouth, and his voice resonated throughout the pawnshop. As for the onlookers, they were so frightened by this scene that they quickly fled the pawnshop. Knowing that the Xue Clan’s experts would soon arrive, they feared being implicated.

After shattering Xue Baisheng’s dantian, Liu Wuxie patted his hands as though he had just done something ordinary. He casually kicked Xue Baisheng to the side as though nothing had happened and walked out of the pawnshop.

Within a short span, the pawnshop was nearly deserted. The remaining spectators, unafraid of the Xue Clan, stayed to witness the unfolding drama.

“Young Master Liu, I apologize for dragging you into this incident!” Chen Leyao expressed, trailing behind Liu Wuxie. She was aware that if not for her, Liu Wuxie wouldn’t have been embroiled in this situation. She understood that Liu Wuxie’s assistance was his way of repaying her for her help during the assessment.

“This has nothing to do with you. My feud with the Xue Clan is complicated, and I wouldn’t have let Xue Baisheng go even without you.” Liu Wuxie expressed that there was no need for Chen Leyao to be so polite to him, and his main intention was to intimidate Xue Chunyu. Back then, Xue Chunyu wanted the destruction of the Xu Clan, and their feud had been formed since then.

Chen Leyao could sense the sincerity in Liu Wuxie’s words. From her observations of Xue Pinzhi, she deduced that the feud between Liu Wuxie and the Xue Clan was irreconcilable.

The pawnshop had private rooms for each transaction to protect customers\' privacy. After all, customers occasionally brought items that couldn’t be revealed to the public or exchanged into resources through ordinary means.

There was nothing Liu Wuxie had to hide about what he wanted to sell, but he preferred not to attract unwanted attention if possible. It wasn’t a secret that he took the interspatial pouches from the three scorpion brothers, and it wasn’t surprising if he took them out. But it was a different issue with the interspatial pouches from Wan Zhuoran’s group because no one knew about it yet.

When Liu Wuxie was in the private room, Song Ling and Chen Leyao waited outside. The eighteen interspatial pouches and two spiritual artifacts were sold for 25,000,000 gold coins, and Liu Wuxie exchanged 20,000,000 gold coins for 200 spirit stones, keeping the remaining gold coins for future use.

Spirit stones were the universal currency in the cultivating world, replacing gold coins. After all, gold coins were only used by ordinary people.

After completing the transaction, Liu Wuxie walked out of the private room. As for Xue Baisheng, he had already been carried back to the Xue Clan.

“Young Master Liu, we should hurry back to the academy. Even if the Xue Clan is powerful, they won’t dare to kill someone publicly in the academy.” Chen Leyao urged Liu Wuxie to return to the academy when he exited the private room. She was anxious as the Xue Clan’s private troop would soon arrive.

“Let’s not rush. I still have purchases to make!” Liu Wuxie declared, leading Song Ling in a different direction instead of heading back to the academy.

This naturally made Chen Leyao more anxious, but she couldn’t leave alone since Liu Wuxie wasn’t returning. After all, everything had started because of her, and she naturally couldn’t just walk away.

“You’re familiar with the Imperial City. Bring me to the Treasure Pill Pavilion!” Liu Wuxie said. Using Chen Leyao as a guide seemed the most suitable option since he was too lazy to ask around. Since he had sold everything he didn’t need, he naturally wanted to buy herbs to refine into pills to reach the Spirit Cleansing Realm as soon as possible.

With a bitter smile, Chen Leyao had no choice but to lead Liu Wuxie through the city streets towards the renowned Treasure Pill Pavilion. The pavilion was a well-known establishment in the Imperial City, supplying seventy percent of its pills. It was so influential that many alchemy teachers from the Imperial Academy held the position of guest elder there.

Xue Chunyu was engrossed in his paperwork when a guard’s abrupt entrance disrupted him, causing his displeasure.

“Milord!” The guard, drenched in cold sweat and trembling, knelt outside the study room. He had rushed over to deliver the news without delay, knowing the risk of interrupting Xue Chunyu. In the past, anyone who dared to interrupt Xue Chunyu would have to face the risk of being beheaded. But since someone came to report, something big must’ve happened.

“What is it?” Xue Chunyu asked, his face darkening as he suppressed his anger and rose from his chair.

“Y-Young master’s dantian has been destroyed! He was carried back!” The guard stuck his head on the ground with his clothes drenched in cold sweat. As he spoke, a wave of murderous intent erupted from the study room, so powerful that it shattered the roof. This was a testament to Xue Chunyu’s high-level Marrow Cleansing Realm cultivation.

The guard exploded under the terrifying aura before he could finish his report. Xue Chunyu had killed him, but this did nothing to quell the rage in his heart.

In his youth, Xue Chunyu was severely injured in a battle, which impacted his ability to have children. Fortunately, he already had a son, Xue Baisheng, who became his only heir. As a result, Xue Baisheng was doted on from a young age.

No matter what trouble Xue Baisheng got into throughout the years, he would do his best to appease it. He would get anything his son wanted, as he could only have one son for the rest of his life. Since Xue Baisheng was young, Xue Chunyu had assigned guards to accompany him.

Even Xue Yu, the grandson of Xue Dingtian, didn’t receive such treatment, where he would be followed by guards everywhere. Recently, Xue Chunyu had been longing for a grandson. He was still in his prime and could watch his grandson grow up.

However, Xue Baisheng disappointed him by losing his yang energy at a young age with a servant. Over the years, Xue Chunyu introduced many beauties to his son, but all his hopes were dashed. Now, with his son’s dantian destroyed, the prospect of having a grandchild seemed even more remote.

It was no wonder why Xue Chunyu was so furious. He didn’t kill that guard on purpose but accidentally because of his Marrow Cleansing Realm aura. Falling back to his chair, he clenched on the armrests tightly.

The armrests were crushed with splinters stabbing into his palm. However, Xue Chunyu felt no pain, with veins popping on his face. His face contorted into a sinister expression as his eyes turned beastly red, and he grasped for his breath to suppress his inner fury.

“My son’s dantian is ruined! My son is crippled!” Xue Chunyu was like a madman, his facial expression alternating between laughing and crying. It took him five minutes to recover from this state, and he quickly left his study room, heading straight to the Xue Clan’s main hall without even tidying up his appearance.

A few hundred people were gathered in the Xue Clan’s main hall, with three people lying on the ground before them. They were Xue Baisheng and his two guards. They didn’t suffer any heavy injuries, but their dantians were destroyed. This meant they had lost their cultivation as they lay weakly on the ground.

“Who did this? Who dared cripple the son of a vice-minister?” The Xue Clan’s descendants discussed as they pointed fingers. Despite his mediocre talent, Xue Baisheng still had a high status in the clan because of his father.

“I heard that a student from the Imperial Academy did it.” Everyone was waiting for Xue Chunyu to handle this matter. After all, his son was injured, and it wasn’t appropriate for the Xue Clan’s higher-ups to interfere in this matter.

When Xue Chunyu approached, the surrounding temperature fell before he even got close. He was still hopeful that the guard had made a mistake while reporting. However, his hopes were shattered as soon as he stepped into the main hall.

Xue Baisheng’s dantian was destroyed, and even his meridians were shattered. This meant that Xue Baisheng wouldn’t even be qualified to become garbage as he would spend the rest of his life in bed, needing someone to attend to him for everything.

Since Liu Wuxie had made a move, he naturally didn’t show mercy to Xue Baisheng.

Xue Baisheng struggled to turn his head as he heard the approaching footsteps, and tears welled up in his eyes at the sight of his father.

“Father, you must avenge me!” Xue Baisheng\'s cry was heartbreaking as he tried to sit up. But his meridians were shattered, leaving him completely paralyzed.

“Tell me, who did this to you?! I’ll avenge you!” Xue Chunyu squatted down and gently stroked Xue Baisheng’s head with tears rolling down his cheeks.

“Third uncle, someone named Liu Wuxie did this!” A Xue Clan’s descendant stepped forward. They had already investigated what happened in the pawnshop.

“Liu Wuxie from Azure Billow City?” Xue Chunyu’s voice trembled as he stood up, the name stirring up past grievances. Back in Azure Billow City, Liu Wuxie had been a thorn in his side. Despite the investigation team’s initial findings, Liu Wuxie had somehow managed to alter the results.

The Xue Clan had already received word from the City Lord Mansion. They were left with no choice but to step in and assist Liu Wuxie, much to their chagrin.

“Yes, that’s right. He hails from Azure Billow City and has threatened to annihilate our Xue Clan. I’ve already dispatched someone to monitor him,” the speaker confirmed, having assigned someone to keep tabs on Liu Wuxie while awaiting Xue Chunyu’s next course of action.

“I should have exterminated that pest when I had the chance!” Xue Chunyu expressed deep regret. He could have easily eliminated Liu Wuxie with a single blow. However, the intervention of Bi Gongyu and Qi Enshi had forced the investigation team to withdraw from Azure Billow City.
