Chapter 27: I am the Cause

Mayoress Yuan Lianyao was who the Huang Clan wanted to eliminate!

She was also the only cultivator who reached the Profound Realm that the Huang Clan knew.

Yuan Lianyao was the person of the highest realm, the primary influencer of the Zhao and Yu Clan, and the true cause of Huang Bin’s death.

She naturally needed to be dead first!

Yu Yuan, however, was only in the first realm, so what could he even do to change the overall situation after it had been set?

“They still don’t even care about me after all.”

Looking at the hard gold rocks that were flying everywhere, Yu Yuan smiled and said, “Uncle, don’t be nervous. For now, we will be relatively safe. The Yuan Clan and Zhao Clan are what they want to get rid of first. We… are still unworthy of their interest yet.”

Huang Fan, the leader of the Huang Clan, had reached the middle stage of the Dark Burst Realm.

His younger brother Huang Tianyi was in the beginning stage of the same realm.

Huang Chen, the leader of the next generation in the clan, also reached the beginning stage of the Dark Bust Realm at an impressively young age!

The Huang Clan had three cultivators in the Dark Burst Realm!

With an absolute advantage in power, they, of course, wouldn’t take Yu Clan seriously.

Yu Wei pulled him away from the high platform where Yuan Lianyao was located. After noticing that the Huang Clan people truly didn’t bother their existence, he accepted Yu Yuan’s statement earlier.

Looking toward where other Yu Clan members were, he found that Huang Tianyi was already surrounded by Zhao Dongsheng and Yuan Fu.

The Huang Clan didn’t have any more power to take care of the Yu Clan anymore.

“In the past ten years, the Huang Clan is able to develop in an unimaginable way.” Yu Wei’s expressions darkened. “It is also in these ten years that Huang Tianyi and Huang Chen stepped into the Dark Burst Realm. Huang Fan also entered the middle stage. All of these happened after they attacked us and injured your grandpa’s legs.”

Yu Yuan paused there for a moment, and said, “I heard that the Huang Clan used someone else to break grandpa’s legs?”

Yu Wei nodded, “Before that, your grandfather’s cultivation was at the beginning stage of the Dark Burst, just like Huang Fan. At that time, our clan was even better than the Huang Clan. In the same realm, your grandpa should be even more powerful than Huang Fan. If it wasn’t because of the outsiders, how could he end up like that?”

“I see.” Yu Yuan’s eyes were cold. “It must be the Divine Blood Sect. It was they who bewitched the Huang Clan into such a state.”

“The Divine Blood Sect?” Yu Wei was shocked, “Was it the one from the Northern part of the Land of Extinction?”

Yu Yuan nodded.

Yu Wei suddenly turned pale.

Swoosh! Swoosh!

Nine bright red lotus flowers flew out from the soles of Yuan Lianyao’s feet and floated in the air.

When the drops of crimson blood burst from hard gold rocks, the lotus flowers shield them from reaching Yuan Lianyao.

Bang!

The blood droplets vaporized into a thin mist upon impact.

The scarlet blood mist, like a curtain, gently floated down.

Even under the bright day, the valley was filled with a dark crimson-colored mist…

A terrifying and bloody force descended from the sky and enveloped everyone in the valley.

“The Sacrifice Formation!”

Yu Yuan’s expression gradually became heavier. “That’s not right… That old man from the Red Devil Sect should have destroyed several areas of the formation already. It’s still daytime, so the formation shouldn’t be able to form.”

“Lady Mayoress!”

Huang Chen grinned and laughed. “Not expecting this, are you? Don’t just think that you reached the Profound Realm and can do whatever you want!”

When he said that, Yu Yuan naturally turned his attention to him.

He noticed that the crimson mist was becoming denser and denser around Yuan Lianyao.

It was as if she was covered in blood!

Even more surprising, the nine bright red lotuses seemed to be slightly out of her control.

Yuan Lianyao’s coquettish and gorgeous face showed staggering pain.

“Even as a Profound Realm cultivator, you can’t do anything under the Sacrifice Formation!” The thin Huang Fan, sitting on the high platform where Huang Bin’s body was, waved his hands in midair.

Click! Crack!

With his movements, the ground was torn apart by golden rays of light, bringing more pieces of golden rock out from the earth.

After coming out of the ground, the rocks burst out even more blood drops. With a sound breaking noise, they all went for Yuan Lianyao.

The Huang Clan used tremendous manpower to mine out the hard gold rocks and filled them with blood droplets.

All that effort was preparation for today.

“Using the blood mist to activate the Sacrifice Formation… indeed a clever move.” Yu Yuan signed as he explained this to his uncle. “Our Mayoress’ Dark Door is probably out of control, and she is trying to use her eight special meridians to support her body right now.”

Yu Wei was shocked, “Does that mean… she will never be able to recover from this?”

Yuan Lianyao was the symbol of power in the Dark Moon City and the key figure to defeat the Huang Clan.

If she fell first, the morale of others would drop instantly.

The cultivators of the other three clans would feel that if she couldn’t even defeat the Huang Clan, they would not be able to either.

More importantly, the outsider who was helping the Huang Clan still hadn’t shown up yet.

“Brother Yu.”

Zhao Yafu, along with Zhao Xi, left the others and came to Yu Yuan and Yu Wei.

“Yu Yuan! Under the orders of Senior Fu, I am here to protect you.” The guards’ captain, Li Feng, simultaneously stepped out with Zhao Xi and Zhao Yafu toward Yu Yaun.

Zhao Xi scratched his head. He still didn’t understand why his father Zhao Zhenghao told him to come to Yu Yuan with Zhao Yafu.

Zhao Xi, at the late stage of the Yellow Room Realm, with Yu Wei and Li Feng, who were both at the middle stage of the Yellow Room Realm, gathered around Yu Yuan.

“Senior Fu told me to…” Li Feng felt very unwilling, but he still said, “follow your orders for now. Damn, that means all the city’s guards have to follow your orders!”

As he spoke, the words became softer and softer, almost inaudible at the end.

But everyone still heard it clearly.

Moreover, after he said that, almost to prove that he was right. Yuan Fu ordered the rest of the guards to go to Yu Yuan as well.

The guards of Dark Moon City and the Yuan Clan were two independent groups.

However, both had to follow the Yuan Lianyao’s orders.

“What is this…”

Zhao Xi was also stunned. How did Yu Yuan gain the trust of all three clans in just a matter of days?

So much that the Mayoress even trusted him to command all the city’s guards for her.

Gasp!

At this moment, the Mayoress hunched over in pain.

The nine crumbling lotus flowers suddenly brightened up again.

With a burst of light, the nine lotus started to burn.

From far away, they looked like nine large lanterns!

Instantly Yuan Lianyao also seemed to recover, the pain was no longer there.

Instead, her mouth formed a sly and vicious smile.

Sitting across from her, Huang Fan shuddered as he saw the expression. “How come you did not lose control?!”

“How is this possible?” Huang Chen was petrified. “How did she overcome the blood mist and the Sacrifice Formation?”

“Go!”

With a twist of her waist, two of the lotus smashed toward Huang Fan and Huang Chen like two fireballs.

Crash! Boom!

Huang Fan and Huang Chen got hit back more than ten yards, and blood came out of the corner of their mouths.

With just a single hit, both of them were critically wounded.

“How dare you to talk to me like that” With a thankful look, Yuan Lianyao giggled and glared at Yu Yuan from a distance. “Don’t just think that you can force me down with the Divine Blood Sect helping you.”

“Yu Yuan, did you say that if Mayoress already lost her control?”

Zhao Xi, Zhao Yafu, and Li Feng all looked at him strangely.

They all noticed the way Yuan Lianyao looked at him.

It clearly showed that her success had a lot to do with Yu Yuan.

“Well, a coincidence happened I guess,” Yu Yuan looked calm. He pointed to himself and said, “and I am the cause of it.”
