Killing Wang Yin
Not bothering to say or word or even defend himself, Wang Yin instantly dove into the shadows and ran away as fast as his slender body could take him.
"You've already come out this far, Wang Yin. You might as well stay with us forever." Li Rou spoke emotionlessly as she unleashed her Domain.
Xue Feng followed suit and released his Domain, sealing away any possible escape route Wang Yin could take.
"Xiantian Great Realm! Xue Feng, how the hell did you break through?!" Wang Yin yelled out as he popped out from the shadows.
Since his escape route had been sealed, Wang Yin knew he could only fight his way through. But after seeing his opponent's cultivation, he was floored.
'They have Peak Yellow Grade Martial Veins! How the hell did they break through their limit?!' Wang Yin's mind reeled as he tried to explain his bizarre circumstance.
"Does it matter to tell a dead man?" Xue Feng spoke coldly as he sent dozens of meter-long icicles at Wang Yin.
'Fast!' Wang Yin thought as he dove into the dirt in an attempt to dodge them. But as he landed, an arrow covered in smoldering hot flames flew at him.
"Dammit!" Wang Yin grunted. And deciding to throw caution to the wind, he pulled out a sword and clashed with the arrow.
However, as Li Rou was now much stronger than him, her arrow won, with the clash sending Wang Yin and his sword flying in two separate directions.
Going to strike the iron while it was hot, Li Rou flung out four more arrows before Wang Yin could recover. And thanks to her precise accuracy, they all hit their targets—each of the assassin's limbs. Skewering Wang Yin to the tree that he landed next to.
"You bastards! How dare you attack me! Are you not afraid of a war between our Dukedoms?!" Wang Yin yelled out as he realized that his life was now in imminent danger.
"Wang Yin, surely you don't think that we have to dignify those words with a response, right? You came all the way from your Dukedom, killed a squad leader under me, stalked my son's carriage with malicious intentions, and only now do you regret it? If you were afraid of a war, you wouldn't have come to Snowy Wind City wanting to assassinate Bai'er." Xue Feng replied as he shook his head.
Though Xue Feng didn't like to converse with his enemies, Wang Yin was a strong powerhouse from their generation, and out of respect, he planned to exchange a sentence before killing him. Even if there were a chance of Wang Yin receiving back up or being rescued, Xue Feng would be able to sense it long before they could arrive, so he was confident that he could Wang Yin before they did.
Wang Yin, also finding his words a little shameless, blushed a little, but before he could feel embarrassed, the searing pain coming from the arrows sobered him up.
'I can't die here! No, not yet. Lord Fifth promised me that he could take me to the Central Continent and even break through to the Xiantian Great Realm!' Wang Yin thought as he tried to find some way to continue the conversation.
"Wait, Xue Feng, we can talk about this. You also hate my older brother too. I can help you take him down. I know a lot of the Wang Clan's dark dealings." Wang Yin begged as he negotiated for his life.
"Husband, there is no need to converse with such a man. Demonic scum like him should be killed on sight." Li Rou spoke in a tone filled with disdain as she notched another arrow.
'This bitch! I'm not speaking to you but to your Husband. How dare you interrupt!' Wang Yin angrily thought, but as his life was in her hands, he spoke differently.
"Duchess Li, no need to be drastic. You can brand a slave seal on my soul. I promise to be the number 1 horse under you two if you so desire." Wang Yin begged even more desperately after seeing Li Rou's eyes.
However, before he could continue, Li Rou launched the arrow at his head, killing him instantly.
"Whatever information you have, Bai'er already knows." Li Rou coldly spoke as she put her bow back in her spatial ring.
"Rou'er burn the corpse. Make sure not to leave any trace behind." Xue Feng spoke as he flew into the sky.
He would watch their surroundings to stop anybody from coming over, while Li Rou would clean the scene to make sure that Wang Yichen would never know what happened.
Li Rou, on the ground, made quick work of Wang Yin's corpse while also looting it for all it was worth.
"Wang Shu, come over here now!" Li Rou yelled out.
pαпdα Йᴏνê1,сòМ Already waiting for his call, Wang Shu quickly sprinted over.
"Yes, Mistress!"
"Take the carriage back home. Don't waste any time either, be just as fast as you left." Li Rou ordered. And after seeing that the twins accepted it, she flew off. Having both her and Xue Feng be away from the Estate was never a good idea, and she wanted to be back as soon as possible.
Meeting up with Xue Feng in the air, Li Rou flew back to the Estate casually, as if she hadn't just killed a Peak Stage Domain Lord Realm cultivator a moment before.
However, unlike Li Rou's calm exterior, the Wang Clan Estate was erupting in chaos.
In the Baishen Plane, most forces would have a Soul Lamp bound to every one of their most important members. The Wang Clan and Wang Yin are no exception.
So at the moment of Wang Yin's death, his Soul Lamp immediately lost its light, indicating that he had died. And as there was at least 1 Wang Clan member watching the Soul Lamps at every second of the day, the second Wang Yin's Soul Lamp extinguished, he noticed.
And not daring to delay the grave news, the Wang Clan member charged to the Core Region of the Estate to break the news to the higher-ups.
"Halt! Wang Ye, you know you can't go into the Core Region. So why are you here?" However, before he could go in, he was stopped by a guard.
Wang Ye taking a moment to catch his breath, took deep breaths before he replied.
"Hurry, let me in. An Elder's Soul Lamp extinguished! I have to tell the other Elders." Wang Ye shouted.
While he knew that the information was sensitive, Wang Yin's death couldn't be hidden for long. So Wang Ye was okay with giving away some of the details to the guards.
The two guards looked at each other deeply before letting in Wang Ye. Whether he was lying or not wasn't their business, but if he was telling the truth and they didn't let him in, they would die a miserable death. While Wang Ye was lying, that would be fate instead.
After being granted access, Wang Ye rushed as fast as his Qi Sea cultivation could take him toward the Main Hall. Reaching the Main Hall, Wang Ye was about to ring the clan meeting bell, but just before he did, he saw Wang Yichen from afar.
"Patriarch! Something terrible happened!" Wang Ye yelled as he ran over to Wang Yichen.
Wang Yichen, hearing someone call out to him, looked over in Wang Ye's direction. However, since he didn't recognize the kid, he didn't say anything and waited for Wang Ye to close the distance.
"Patriarch, something terrible happened!" Wang Ye shouted as he got close.
"I heard you earlier, child. You don't need to repeat yourself. Speak of the terrible news." Wang Yichen spoke irritably.
From this one interaction with Wang Ye, Wang Yichen already disliked him. Not only could he not keep his composure, but he also couldn't speak directly.
"Patriarch, it's the Third Elder. His Soul Lamp went out a few minutes ago." Wang Ye quickly explained as he could see Wang Yichen losing patience from his expression.
"Wang Yin? Are you sure? You know how Soul Lamps can sometimes flicker as if they were going to extinguish but still be lit?" Wang Yichen suddenly became serious as he spoke.
"I am 100% sure, Patriarch. How dare I not make sure? It didn't flicker at all. It went directly out without any suspense." Wang Ye reiterated.
"Shit!" Wang Yichen cursed as he ran over to the Main Hall.
Running over to the bell, Wang Yichen rang it with all of his might.
'This is going to be ugly.' Wang Yichen groaned as he rang the bell. He could already tell that this clan meeting wasn't going to be a pretty one.
As Wang Yichen mentally prepared for the upcoming chaotic meeting, all of the higher-ups exited their courtyards and rushed over at the sound of the bell. While they weren't sure of what the meeting was being called for, since anyone who dared to ring the bell without proper reason would be killed, they knew that it was serious.
