Chapter 1783: Slap
The one who had spoken was none other than Xiang Shaoyun. Xiang Shaoyun had rushed back as fast as he could. He did not expect to see his grandfather-in-law beheaded by Yu Third Ancestor. Fortunately, Tuoba Taishan's soul remained. Otherwise, he would have killed them all instead of talking to them.
The Di Sovereign, Yu Second Ancestor, and Yu Third Ancestor were flabbergasted when they heard the voice. Evidently, they had not expected someone to approach them without them realizing it.
When they saw Xiang Shaoyun, their faces turned solemn. Evidently, they had all heard of Xiang Shaoyun's accomplishments in the war against the aliens. They would not look down on the current Xiang Shaoyun.
"Xiang Shaoyun, it's good that you're here. You have kidnapped Yu Caidie, but we are willing to forgive you provided you submit to the Yu Clan and become our live-in son-in-law. Otherwise, he will be the first I kill!" demanded Yu Third Ancestor arrogantly as he held Tuoba Taishan's soul in his hand.
He was confident that Xiang Shaoyun would agree because of the hostage in his hand, but he had barely finished his demand when the soul vanished.
By the time he reacted, Xiang Shaoyun had released Tuoba Taishan's soul and said, "Grandpa, it has been hard on you."
Tuoba Taishan hurriedly gathered the scattered blood around him to reform his body. With a helpless smile, he said, "Fortunately, you came back in time. Otherwise, this would've been the end of this old man."
Xiang Yangzhan broke free from the Di Sovereign and Yu Second Ancestor. He retreated toward Xiang Shaoyun and said, "Yun'er, don't spare these bastards! They actually took the opportunity of the chaos and tried to eliminate our Ziling Sect!"
"Don't worry, Father. None of them can escape," said Xiang Shaoyun.
"Hehe. How audacious. You really think you can disregard us after training outside the dominion for a few years?" said the Di Sovereign with a sneer.
"Yes, that is so," remarked Xiang Shaoyun indifferently.
"Kid, after stealing a woman of our clan, you continue to stand against us! Let me teach you a proper lesson!" said Yu Second Ancestor. He was a brash man. After cursing at Xiang Shaoyun, he charged forth and sent a Flaming Cloud Palm at Xiang Shaoyun's face. Evidently, he intended to humiliate Xiang Shaoyun.
However, before his palm could reach Xiang Shaoyun, an even faster palm slapped him across his old face.
Pa!
The sound was crisp and loud, and Yu Second Ancestor could be seen rolling away. Several of his teeth had even been flung out of his mouth. That was quite a strong slap. The others couldn't even see how Xiang Shaoyun had attacked, but they felt a chill creep up their spines.
"Caidie, I'll let you deal with those from your clan," said Xiang Shaoyun after releasing Yu Caidie from his astral cosmos sea.
Yu Caidie had reached peak ninth-stage God Realm. She looked absolutely gorgeous. With her enchanting appearance and fiery red outfit, she looked like a flame goddess.
"Second ancestor, third ancestor, apologize to the overlord, and I can make the decision on his behalf to spare the two of you," said Yu Caidie.
Both Yu Second Ancestor and Yu Third Ancestor did not know how Yu Caidie had appeared. They were naturally unwilling to listen to her. Instead, they started calling her thankless wretch, shameless prostitute, and so on.
Yu Caidie moved. A heavy slap struck the other side of Yu Second Ancestor's face. Yu Second Ancestor's face turned red. It was unknown if the red was from the slap or from his anger. He pointed at Yu Caidie with trembling fingers and said, "Y-you unfilial child! You're unworthy of being Yu—"
Before he could finish, he was slapped yet again. Once again, he failed to dodge the slap.
"In both my lives, old geezers like you have put me under intense control. In this life, you will listen to me and Overlord. Otherwise, I'll slap you every time I see you!" demanded Yu Caidie overbearingly.
Both she and Xiang Shaoyun were lovers of two lives, but in both lives, the Yu Clan had been an obstacle in their relationship. In this life, she had finally obtained a top-tier strength and become strong enough to slap these old geezers as she wished. Thus, she now had enough confidence to make demands of them.
"Audacious! Big brother, I beg you to make a move and teach this unfilial girl a lesson!" said Yu Second Ancestor with his hand on his face, looking like he was about to cry.
Both he and Yu Caidie were at the ninth stage, but he was only at mid ninth stage. He was quite far away from Yu Caidie, who was at the peak of the ninth stage. Furthermore, after tempering herself for two lives, Yu Caidie had enough strength to easily defeat him.
At those words, a tiny old man appeared out of empty air. With a heavy sigh, he said, "I had never expected the Yu Clan to produce such an incredible God. This is the fortune of our Yu Clan."
The old man looked completely ordinary, with no energy undulation. In truth, he was a Two Revolutions expert. He was the Yu Clan's grand ancestor and the clan's final backer.
With the grand ancestor's appearance, three other people arrived as well. All of them were in the Nine Revolutions Realm. The strongest of the three was at Three Revolutions, Tan Xinji, the grand protector of the Divine Fist Sect. The other person was a Two Revolutions expert, Sword Ancestor Nangong Shangbing of Nangong Clan. Finally, the third person was an old eunuch from the Di Clan, a One Revolution expert, Eunuch Cai.
It wasn't that the dominion did not have any Nine Revolutions Realm experts, but these super experts were all busy taking care of themselves. Most of them were in seclusion and were rarely seen. When humanity was facing foreign enemies, they finally showed themselves, not to fight outsiders but fellow humans.
It was no wonder that the life forms of high-tier planets would constantly set their eyes on the dominion to conquer. If all the experts of the dominion could unite and work together, humanity would have a much easier time against both the devils and the aliens.
"Xiang Shaoyun, let me see how you're going to stay arrogant now!" said the Di Sovereign with a sinister look on his face.
"Looks like you're confident you can beat me for real," said Xiang Shaoyun nonchalantly.
Yu Caidie hurriedly said, "Overlord, do not be angry." She then looked at the grand ancestor and said, "Grand ancestor, please stop now. If the Yu Clan serves the overlord well, he won't mistreat us. If you disagree, not even I can spare you from damnation."
"Hahaha, you really think this kid is undefeatable? With Grand Ancestor here, he is nothing! You should save your breath and persuade him to kneel down," said Yu Third Ancestor as he howled with laughter.
But right after he finished laughing, a palm slapped him across his face, creating a rather comical scene of a wave rippling across his face. The person capable of slapping someone before a super expert was none other than Xiang Shaoyun. Even the four newly arrived super experts were solemn upon seeing that slap.
"You're all for me, right? Fine. Allow me to witness just how strong you all are," said Xiang Shaoyun with a cold glint in his eyes.
