My husband Can Cultivate

Chapter 681: Chapter 681: The Rage of the Barbarian King

"Hahaha!" Gu Mingwu burst into laughter. "Do you think experts are potatoes, found everywhere? Ye Feng has already surprised me. You’re not going to tell me there are several more experts like him, are you?"

"What if I told you yes?" Chen Guo said sagely.

"You old fool, still spouting nonsense to mislead everyone," Chen Guoyuan said, turning to Gu Mingwu. "Elder Gu, don’t listen to him. In all of Dragon City, Ye Feng is probably the strongest. That King of Jingnan isn’t weak, but he’s no match for the Heavenly Slaughter Sword."

Hearing this, Gu Mingwu completely relaxed. He had been worried that the King of Jingnan possessed combat power on par with Ye Feng’s, but according to Chen Guoyuan, that didn’t seem to be the case.

"Elder Gu, why don’t you teach these guys a lesson? They’re so stubborn, they deserve to be disciplined. As long as you don’t kill them, it’s fine, right?" Chen Guoyuan suggested.

"A fine idea. I especially despise these hard-headed types. Men! Break the legs of everyone from the Chen Family! I want to see just how tough they are, and who dares to come and save them," Gu Mingwu said, his face dark.

"Family Head, let’s fight these sons of bitches! Even if we die fighting, it’s better than being buried alive!" someone roared in fury.

BOOM!

Chen Guo stood up. His legs, which had been broken, were somehow mended, though it was still a great effort for him to stand. Chen Baixiang, at his side, quickly steadied him. Chen Baixiang’s father also stood forward.

Chen Guo said coldly, "Gu Mingwu, since you are so aggressive, the Chen Family has no choice but to fight you to the death. We would rather die here, staining this Spirit Hall with our blood, than be buried alongside that scoundrel Jin Xing."

"That’s right! The Chen Family has no cowards! It is an honor to die for the Star Shining Society!"

The Martial Artists of the Chen Family stood up one by one. The cowards had already surrendered, so those who remained were all tough men and women of unyielding spirit.

"The Star Shining Society will avenge us! We’ll wait for those bastards in the afterlife! I’ve had enough of this! We’ll take down as many as we can!"

"Exactly! We have to drag those two traitors, Chen Guoyuan and Chen Xingye, down with us!"

BOOM!

Gu Mingwu shot to his feet, releasing a terrifying aura. It crushed the members of the Chen Family, leaving them unable to breathe, let alone fight or even move a limb.

"Break their legs. Keep them alive. After the memorial service, bury them!" Gu Mingwu commanded coldly, his expression sinister.

"Alas, the Chen Family will fall under my watch... Grandfather, I’m so useless. If only I had been stronger, this wouldn’t have happened," Chen Baixiang sighed, her heart filled with bitter unwillingness. She had just found her purpose, just begun to change for someone’s sake, only to now be on the verge of death.

A group of Martial Artists from the Tianhai Association advanced on the Chen Family, their faces twisted into savage smiles. The Chen Family members couldn’t even resist, completely suppressed by Gu Mingwu’s aura.

BOOM!

Suddenly, a towering, mighty figure appeared before the Chen Family. He stood a massive three meters tall. With a single punch, he sent a dozen Tianhai Association Martial Artists flying, leaving some dead and others gravely wounded.

For the despairing members of the Chen Family, it was as if they had suddenly been brought back to life.

A figure leading a little girl walked slowly into the Spirit Hall, a cold, indifferent expression on his face.

"Sister Baixiang!" Little Yueyue cried, throwing herself at Chen Baixiang. She burst into tears, her heart aching at the sight of the wounds on Baixiang’s face. For a woman, a facial wound was a devastating blow.

"Sorry I’m late," a guilt-ridden voice said.

To Yang Qi, anyone willing to pledge loyalty to the Star Shining Society was family. Seeing his family suffer, he could only blame himself for not arriving sooner.

Hearing this familiar voice, both Chen Guo and Chen Baixiang were overcome with ecstatic joy, trembling from head to toe. Chen Baixiang let go completely, sobbing uncontrollably. Before, no matter how much it hurt, she had refused to cry. But these were tears of sheer relief. Tears welled up in Chen Guo’s weary eyes.

The crowd parted, creating a path. A tall, well-built figure walked out. His features were handsome, but his face held a hint of killing intent as he walked over to Chen Guo and Chen Baixiang.

For a moment, Gu Mingwu and his men were stunned. How could a young man of about twenty-five command such trust and reliance from the Chen Family?

"The Star Shining Society is here! They’ve come to save us!" Chen Guo shouted, his voice trembling with emotion.

"The Star Shining Society!"

The Chen Family members had been wondering who would risk becoming an enemy of the Tianhai Association to save them. Ah, so it was the Star Shining Society.

Thinking back, they felt a pang of shame. For a moment there, they had truly believed the people from the Star Shining Society had fled. Now, they were deeply embarrassed. Everyone’s expression shifted from despair to joyous surprise. The atmosphere seemed to brighten, and even their pain was forgotten.

Yang Qi slowly knelt to examine Chen Guo’s legs. "They were truly vicious. They really didn’t want you to recover."

"Mr. Yang, can they not be healed?" Chen Baixiang asked anxiously.

"Don’t worry. As long as I’m here, it’ll be fine," Yang Qi smiled, then began treating the injured Chen Family members one by one.

Suddenly, his gaze fell upon the Spirit Hall. "This thing is an eyesore."

With a single punch, he demolished it. Yang Qi dragged the altar table over and swept the offerings aside.

"Here, use this as a temporary treatment bed. One by one, I’ll set your bones," he said.

"You bastard! You piece of scum, who the hell do you think you are, causing trouble here? Don’t you know this is the Spirit Hall for Jin Xing, the Young Master of the Tianhai Association?" an Elder from the Tianhai Association roared. This man was also tall, just a bit shorter than the Undying Barbarian King, but still over two meters.

"Noisy!" the Undying Barbarian King roared. He took a sudden step forward and seized the Tianhai Association Elder.

"Yueyue, close your eyes," Yang Qi said calmly.

The next moment, blood sprayed through the air. The Elder from the Tianhai Association died a gruesome death.

That was a Third Rank Overlord, a being even stronger than the Heavenly Slaughter Sword. Yet, under the Undying Barbarian King’s assault, he hadn’t stood a chance. The reason for this was simple. After obtaining the Undying Divine Skill, the Undying Barbarian King had already "died" several times. Each death drastically boosted his combat power, elevating him to the peak of a Fourth Rank Overlord—a Realm even higher than Ye Feng’s. The Undying Divine Skill was just that formidable. As long as a single breath remained, he could be revived. Coupled with his own powerful regenerative abilities, he grew stronger as long as he didn’t perish. Making an enemy of such a person was truly courting death.
