Chapter 208: Brotherhood

“Yu Huayan, what do you mean?”

Xiao Nanshan’s spirit shook as he looked at Yu Huayan.

“Xiao Nanshan, your disciple Yun Yi from the Yanwu family killed my disciple from the Yellow Crane Gate. Today we meet, so I naturally want to seek justice,” Yu Huayan said.

“Haha, do you have no shame? The great Sect Master of the Yellow Crane Gate is actively seeking trouble with an innate realm disciple. It’s truly laughable. Your disciple was killed because he wasn’t strong enough. The struggles between the four major factions have always been like this. Us old masters never get involved,” Xiao Nanshan laughed loudly, mockingly.

Upon hearing this, Yu Huayan’s face became somewhat gloomy because Xiao Nanshan was right. The various factions often fought among themselves, and the disciples faced the fiercest battles, leading to many injuries and deaths. Usually, the higher-ups like them would not get involved; they let the disciples handle it themselves.

Today, in this situation, with Yu Huayan’s identity, seeking trouble with an innate realm disciple indeed made it difficult to save face.

But through Yu Tianyi’s description, this Yun Yi was truly an extraordinary talent. At a young age, he could create perfect pills and could defeat the strongest fighter of the Yellow Crane Gate in a higher realm. He also had connections with Peace Villa. Such a genius made Yu Huayan worry; if he was not dealt with quickly, he would surely become a threat in the future.

That’s why Yu Huayan was looking for trouble, ignoring his own pride.

“Hum! Xiao Nanshan, this Yun Yi is deliberately causing trouble for my Yellow Crane Gate in Peace Villa. He looks down on all major powers. A rebellious person like him should better be handed over by the Yanwu family and dealt with early to avoid future problems,” Gu Tianyuan from Yellow Crane Gate in Xianzhou State also spoke up.

“That’s right, someone so young with such behavior will surely become a great demon in the future. It’s better to get rid of such a person early,” the patriarch of the Wang family, Wang Bufan, also spoke.

The leaders of other major powers also looked toward the Yanwu family, directly targeting Yun Yi.

This scene was unexpected for Xiao Nanshan and all the people of the Yanwu family. After all, Yun Yi was only in the innate realm; it shouldn’t warrant these high-ranking figures stepping in to eliminate him. The only explanation was that Yun Yi was just too outstanding, so outstanding that even his innate realm strength made the major powers feel a sense of crisis.

“A big scene is unfolding, but I really didn’t expect the leaders of various powers to immediately point their weapons at Yun Yi. No matter how you look at it, given their status, it’s simply inappropriate.”

“You don’t understand, the major forces are always fighting. Disciples usually handle their own matters, but you must know that neither Xuanzhou State nor Xianzhou State has ever seen a talent like Yun Yi before. Yun Yi’s presence has already made them feel a hint of danger. If they could get rid of such an extraordinary talent, they could feel safe again.”

“Yes, Yun Yi is too amazing. With the Fire Dual Spirit Body, he is very strong and can defeat enemies much stronger than himself. His Alchemical Technique is astonishing. It’s no surprise that the major forces are paying attention to someone like him.”

…

Many people began to sigh and even feel sorry for Yun Yi. Now that several major forces had united to eliminate him, this situation was truly bad for Yun Yi.

“Bad people.”

Xia Xiaoyao said angrily, tightly holding onto Yun Yi’s sleeve, afraid that those bad people would take her brother away.

“Don’t be nervous.”

Yun Yi patted Xia Xiaoyao’s head, showing no signs of tension or fear on his face, as if none of this concerned him.

“Dad, what should we do now? Yun Yi is an extraordinary talent that only appears once in a thousand years. The Yanwu family must seize this opportunity.”

Xiao Ruoshui frowned and looked at Xiao Nanshan.

At this moment, Xiao Nanshan and the Grand Elder also looked extremely grim. The Hundred Spirit Realm was about to open, and they had come to escort their disciples, but they unexpectedly encountered such trouble.

As for Yun Yi, even though it was their first meeting, Xiao Ruoshui had already told them everything about Yun Yi’s performance. Moreover, the reactions of the various great powers further confirmed Yun Yi’s extraordinary abilities. Just as Xiao Ruoshui said, a talent like Yun Yi was rare in a thousand years. Since the Yanwu family had found him, they must seize the opportunity.

“A bunch of old fools, do you have no shame? If you want to harm a disciple of the Yanwu family, you should first ask Xiao Nanshan if he agrees,” Xiao Nanshan shouted loudly, his attitude very firm. The thousands of Yanwu family disciples behind him were watching. As the proud clan leader, if he couldn’t even protect his own disciples, it would surely disappoint many of them.

“Xiao Nanshan, by yourself, I’m afraid you won’t be able to protect that kid today,” Gu Tianyuan sneered. Since he no longer cared about face, he was determined to achieve his goal.

“What about me?”

Just as Gu Tianyuan finished speaking, an incredibly powerful voice came from within Peace Villa. Everyone saw a remarkably strong figure come rushing in like a streak of light, and in the blink of an eye, he was among the various great powers.

The one who came wore a red robe; it was Qiao Shaoshan.

“Adoptive father.”

Leng Ji hurriedly walked forward and saw Qiao Shaoshan emerging from seclusion. She finally breathed a sigh of relief, as it was clear that Qiao Shaoshan’s injuries had fully healed, and his strength had greatly improved, reaching the peak of the first grade of the One Line Sky Realm, just a step away from the second grade of the One Line Sky Realm.

“Brother Qiao, after two years, you are still as remarkable as ever,” the head of the Zhuge family, Zhuge Yunhai, cupped his fists to greet Qiao Shaoshan.

The other sect leaders and family heads also greeted him. They could provoke anyone, but they did not wish to anger this Mystic Hand Pill Lord.

A Yuan Level Medicine Pill Master has a strong influence.

Moreover, Qiao Shaoshan’s own strength was not weaker than theirs; at this moment, his aura was strong, seemingly even more powerful than theirs.

“Humph!”

Qiao Shaoshan let out a cold snort, ignoring the sect leaders and clan leaders, and boldly walked up to the Yanwu family, looking at Yun Yi, “Brother Yun, come out.”

Yun Yi took a step forward and approached Qiao Shaoshan.

Qiao Shaoshan grabbed Yun Yi’s hand, pulling him in a circle in the middle of the crowd, then spoke loudly, “Since all the major forces are present today, this is a special moment for Xuanzhou State and Xianzhou State. Taking this opportunity, I, Qiao Shaoshan, have important news to announce: from today on, I, Qiao Shaoshan, and Brother Yun Yi will become sworn brothers, sharing good fortune and facing difficulties together. Anyone who tries to harm my brother will have to deal with me, Qiao Shaoshan.”

Boom…

As soon as Qiao Shaoshan spoke these words, it stirred up a wave of excitement, and the scene instantly became chaotic. The expressions of everyone, including the nine major forces, changed.
