Chapter 72

The people of the Wen family immediately burst into a shocked murmur.

"Xia Xueyi!" Wen Fangda's face changed, his eyes glaring at Xia Xueyi as he fiercely said, but immediately, he felt it was not good and quickly forced a smile:

"Brother Xia, it's been a long time. Welcome back to Wenzhou City. Old grudges should be resolved, not held onto. Why bring up past minor disputes?"

"Big Brother! Family Head!" The other four elders and the Wen family members all exclaimed in shock.

"Shut up!" Wen Fangda turned and shouted angrily, while at the same time giving the Wen family members a meaningful look.

The Wen family members were startled, remembering that Xia Xueyi was no longer the Xia Xueyi they could manipulate. Now, it was clear he had joined the Sun Moon Holy Sect and held a high position, someone they could not afford to offend.

This made them feel extremely frustrated, but thinking of the Sun Moon Holy Sect, they had to suppress their frustration.

Although they dared not show their anger, their eyes were filled with hatred. Xia Xueyi hated the Wen family, and the Wen family members also hated Xia Xueyi.

A few years ago, Wen Fanglu, the sixth son of the Wen family, had raped and murdered Xia Xueyi's sister and then led the Wen family to exterminate the entire Xia family. Xia Xueyi took advantage of their unpreparedness to kill Wen Fanglu and was then pursued by the five elders of the Wen family.

Xia Xueyi fled all the way to Yunnan, barely escaping the pursuit, a narrow escape from death. The enmity between the two sides had long been irreconcilable. If it weren't for the Sun Moon Holy Sect, they would have already taken action.

"Ha ha ha ha ha!!!" After looking at Wen Fangda for a few seconds, Xia Xueyi suddenly burst into laughter, laughing heartily as if Wen Fangda's words were extremely amusing.

The Wen family members were enraged, feeling that this was a blatant disregard for the Wen family, but they dared not speak out.

After a while, Xia Xueyi's face turned red, his eyes filled with bloodshot, and he finally stopped, staring intently at Wen Fangda with a mocking and hateful voice:

"Wen Fangda, do you think we need to exchange such polite words? Do you think your bandit family has the right to talk about resolving old grudges?"

"You!" Wen Fangda was furious, but the situation was not in his favor, so he had to suppress his anger and looked at He Qi: "I wonder what Hall Master He means?"

"Humph!" He Qi glanced at Wen Fangda with disdain, showing no intention of responding, which immediately enraged the Wen family.

"Hall Master He, this is not Yunnan!" Wen Fangda finally couldn't hold back and shouted loudly.

"Ha ha! A small family like the Wen family, truly doesn't know when to die." He Qi's eyes flashed with a cold light, and he let out a contemptuous laugh.

"Xueyi, can you personally deal with these five guys?"

"Sure!" Xia Xueyi nodded slightly, tightly gripping the Golden Snake Sword, as if it would be unsheathed at any moment.

"Hall Master He, this is the territory of the Zunxin Sect. Chief Yuan will be here soon. Do you want to openly confront the Zunxin Sect?" Wen Fangda took a step back, looking warily at He Qi and the others, while also invoking his backing.

A strange look flashed in He Qi's eyes, "Attack!"

"Swish swish swish swish!!!"

As soon as He Qi spoke, Xia Xueyi immediately unsheathed the Golden Snake Sword, which transformed into a golden snake and lunged at Wen Fangda.

Wen Fangda waved his sleeves, and two short cudgels instantly appeared in his hands, meeting the sword.

"Boom!"

The sword and cudgels collided, producing a loud noise.

"Attack!" Wen Fangda's face twisted in a fierce expression as he took two steps back and shouted loudly. In a life-or-death situation, he could no longer afford to offend the Sun Moon Holy Sect.

"Zzz!......"

"Kill! Kill them!"

"The Sun Moon Holy Sect won't let us live, so we'll kill them first."

"Brothers, don't hold back. Exterminate the entire Wen family."

......

The two sides immediately engaged in a fierce battle. The Sun Moon Holy Sect's Poison Battle Hall had over three hundred disciples, while the Wen family had over four hundred, and more were on the way. However, despite the numerical advantage, the Poison Battle Hall disciples showed no fear, dismounting and charging into the larger group of Wen family members with disdainful smirks.

"Clang clang clang......!!!"

"Thud!!!"

"Ah!!!"

......

As soon as the two sides clashed, dozens of people fell, all from the Wen family. After all, the Wen family was just a second-rate force, and how could they compare to the Sun Moon Holy Sect's Poison Battle Hall disciples, especially these three hundred elite members?

The five elders of the Wen family watched as their disciples fell, feeling horrified. They wanted to help but were in no position to do so. Xia Xueyi's Golden Snake Sword transformed into a giant golden snake, each move vicious and deadly, relentlessly suppressing the five elders.

Among the five elders, only Wen Fangda was at the Seventh Level of the Innate Realm, while the other four were at the Sixth Level, making them the weakest in a second-rate force. Facing the peak Seventh Level Innate Realm Xia Xueyi, even the five of them together were clearly no match, let alone having to guard against the ever-present threat of He Qi.

"Boom!!"

After a few more exchanges with the five elders, the five elders all showed signs of strain. Wen Fangda glanced at He Qi, seeing that he had no intention of joining the fight, his face hardened, and he shouted, "Five Elements Formation!"

"Good!"

The other four responded enthusiastically, and the five of them began to move in a peculiar pattern, a circular gas pattern appearing beneath their feet. The golden snake in Xia Xueyi's hand immediately shrank.

Xia Xueyi quickly suppressed his hatred and faced the situation calmly.

Not far away, He Qi nodded in approval. Xia Xueyi had not been overwhelmed by his emotions and could remain calm in the face of the enemy, which was good. This would allow him to achieve greater things.

Subsequently, He Qi did not pay attention to the battle between Xia Xueyi and the five elders or the fight between the Poison Battle Hall disciples and the Wen family disciples. Instead, he slowly closed his eyes and rested.

Today, he might also have a fierce battle, but his opponent had not yet arrived. Moreover, the Wen family could not be eliminated too quickly, as they would be needed later.

The Wen family members also knew how formidable He Qi was. Seeing that he did not join the fight, they were relieved and would not dare to attack him. Thus, the area around He Qi remained empty.

"Clang! Ah...!"

A Poison Battle Hall disciple fiercely slashed a Wen family disciple, who let out a pained cry and fell to the ground. This scene was repeated frequently.

By now, half an incense stick had passed, and the battle was still ongoing. Xia Xueyi and the five elders of the Wen family were evenly matched, fighting fiercely.

The battle between the Poison Battle Hall disciples and the Wen family disciples was one-sided. With the reinforcements, the Wen family had about five to six hundred disciples, but now only about two to three hundred remained.

The entrance to the Wen family compound was littered with bodies and blood, a gruesome sight. The entire Wen family was on the verge of despair.

"Clatter clatter clatter clatter!!!"

"Ride ride ride ride!!!"

......

At this moment, the sound of hooves rang out, heading straight for the Wen family compound.

He Qi opened his eyes and thought, "They're here."

"Stop!"

A loud shout echoed across the battlefield, and both the Poison Battle Hall disciples and the Wen family disciples were momentarily stunned, subconsciously stopping their fight. However, they were all a bit puzzled by the voice, which sounded neither male nor female.

For a moment, only the battle between Xia Xueyi and the five elders of the Wen family continued.

The Poison Battle Hall disciples looked at He Qi, seeing that he had not given any orders, and retreated behind him. The remaining Wen family disciples breathed a sigh of relief and retreated to the entrance in panic.

Seeing their reinforcements arrive, the five elders of the Wen family also wanted to stop, but Xia Xueyi refused, each move vicious and deadly, forcing the five elders to fight for their lives.

At this moment, the horsemen stopped in front of the crowd. There were about fifty to sixty of them, all fierce and exuding a bandit-like aura.

"Hall Master He, I have long heard of your great name. I wonder why you have caused such a commotion in Wenzhou City today?"

The leader, holding a long spear, with an androgynous appearance and voice, said to He Qi with a polite smile, but his eyes were filled with cruelty.

"Ha ha ha ha!" He Qi laughed loudly, equally politely: "Chief Yuan, I have heard of your great name as well. Today, I and my brothers are here to settle some personal grudges. Please wait a moment, and we will finish this, then we can talk in detail, okay?"

Neither of them had met before, but they recognized each other at first sight, thanks to prior intelligence.

"Ha ha ha! I wonder how the Wen family has offended Hall Master He? Why not give me some face and let the Wen family apologize?"

Yuan Zhirou asked with a polite smile. If it were anyone else, he would have attacked already, but the Sun Moon Holy Sect was growing stronger, and its leader, Dongfang Bubai, even intimidated his own sect leader, Chizunxin. Unless necessary, he did not want to offend them.

He Qi shook his head and recounted the enmity between Xia Xueyi and the Wen family, clearly stating that the Wen family must be exterminated.

Yuan Zhirou frowned in displeasure. The Wen family was under his protection, and now He Qi insisted on exterminating them, where would his face be?

He said, "Hall Master He, you..."

"Hold on, Chief Yuan. This matter has already been approved by our sect leader. If anyone dares to stop us, they will be opposing the Sun Moon Holy Sect. Please do not interfere," He Qi suddenly interrupted Yuan Zhirou, speaking firmly.

Yuan Zhirou was enraged. He Qi dared to threaten him, making his violent and cruel nature almost act on the spot. However, he held back, knowing that this would mean opposing the Sun Moon Holy Sect, and the Zunxin Sect would inevitably become their enemy.

He Qi had Dongfang Bubai's orders and could bear the consequences of declaring war on the Zunxin Sect, but Yuan Zhirou did not have Chizunxin's approval and could not represent the Zunxin Sect in declaring war on the Sun Moon Holy Sect. Therefore, he could only endure.

"Ah!"
