Nightmare Apostle

Chapter 1352: Chapter 867: Annihilation of a Family_2

Although after learning of the death of the former president Qiu Huai De, the Provincial Federation sent an elder to supervise the overall situation at the Rongcheng Union, it was still Fu Qingzhu who had the final say. He had already used his means to win over a few other vice presidents.

If he builds his own power base and his overt qualifications deepen over the next few years, he will be able to ascend in the next election.

Yang Xiao trusted Fu Qingzhu’s methods, but still kindly advised him not to be impatient, and to leave some room for maneuvering for future encounters.

During these days, Yang Xiao had rare leisure. While he practiced the sword skills taught by the Esoteric Elder, he also had Tong Han find some sword technique experts to spar with him.

Yang Xiao’s comprehension was naturally good, and within a few days, his sword technique had become proficient and skillful.

The Ring-Headed Saber’s destructive power was not as strong as the Ghost Bamboo Stick, but it had the advantage of not consuming too much spiritual power, and was a very handy weapon.

On the eve of their parting, Dean Sheng specifically advised Yang Xiao that there were three magic artifacts yet to be developed: the Ghost Bamboo Stick, the Ghost Lantern, and the Human Bone Staff.

However, Yang Xiao felt that the Ring-Headed Saber had not yet fully realized its true strength, as the capabilities currently displayed were far from supporting the majesty of a Sword Lord.

His own spiritual power level was still too low. Thinking back to the battle with the Magic Sect’s Vajra, after taking drugs, when his spiritual power was fully unleashed, the strength that the Ghost Bamboo Stick erupted was terrifying.

Hundreds of the Dharma Sect’s apostles perished at his hands, including two Ghost-level apostles whose strength was not inferior to that of Brother Sui. The Vajra of the Demon Sect, known for its unbeatable defense, was also injured by him.

At that time, he could feel that although he was at his limit, that Vajra was also at the end of its strength, both fighting with their last breath.

At that time, his spiritual power level should have been almost at the peak of Ghost Level, maybe even a bit stronger. Even so, he almost annihilated the elite of the Dharma Sect.

Yang Xiao couldn’t help but wonder what kind of doomsday scene it would be if the Little Holy Spirit White Buddha were to wield this magic artifact instead.

He had to quickly improve his spiritual power level, otherwise possessing a body full of treasures would merely make him a joke in front of true masters.

After the laughter, they’d slaughter him and snatch away all his treasures.

A few days later, at dusk, Yang Xiao received a video from Xi Menxiu. Upon opening it, the background was the internal auditorium of the Patrol Defense Office, where a lively award ceremony was taking place.

Seeing the two main characters on stage, Yang Xiao grinned. Standing shoulder to shoulder in formal attire were Marquis Zhengdong and An Nan Marquis, with the tattoo on An Nan Marquis’s neck specially covered.

Two banners hung behind them, one reading "Justice Support," the other "Nemesis of Evil Cultivators."

Yang Xiao found these banners familiar; he seemed to have used them himself before.

As the trembling camera angle lifted, Yang Xiao saw a larger banner hanging above, inscribed with "Commendation Conference for the Complete Annihilation of Withered Bone Pavilion Evil Cultivators."

This commendation ceremony was well-organized. Both official directors of the Rongcheng Patrol Division were present. Nalan Shuo stood to the left of Marquis Zhengdong, and Huang Guozhao stood to the right of An Nan Marquis, presenting awards to both.

It was evident that Marquis Zhengdong was not truly happy; his stiff smile seemed like he was about to cry at any moment, and An Nan Marquis was even worse, she was already crying.

Additionally, there were various slogans at the site, such as prohibitions against photography and reminders of confidentiality, with staff wearing red armbands maintaining order.

The shaky camera gave the impression that someone had secretly recorded it while others were unobservant, and the video was very short, just over ten seconds.

Just after Yang Xiao finished watching the video, Xi Menxiu sent an emoji, a smiley face with a wide grin and big white teeth, which looked rather mischievous.

Seeing this emoji, Yang Xiao couldn’t help but laugh with pleasure. He was confident that this internal confidential video would inadvertently be leaked, and within a week at the latest, it would be on the tables of those Withered Bone Pavilion guys. frёeωebɳovel.com

And the good times for Marquis Zhengdong and An Nan Marquis would come to an end. To stay alive, they would have no choice but to collaborate with the Patrol Defense Office, acting as their informants and lackeys.

The Withered Bone Pavilion might still be somewhat wary of the Patrol Defense Office, but against the disorganized band of Marquis Zhengdong and An Nan Marquis, they would strike with force.

Otherwise, how could they continue to survive in the world of martial arts?

"This is great. If the Withered Bone Pavilion people come for revenge, I could ask my senior uncle to take action and deal with them. It would be even better if the visitors were the Great Protector or the Five Guardians!" Yang Xiao’s mind schemed with a sound of abacus calculations.

A few days later, the investigation report on the attack on the Rongcheng Federation Headquarters had been released. Under Fu Qingzhu’s intervention, the blame was indeed placed on the Evil Cultivators.

Qiu Huai De was also killed by the Evil Cultivators. Fu Qingzhu appeared tearful on camera, choking with emotion, and eventually, at his request, the Union allocated some funds as funeral expenses for Qiu Huai De and his family.

Indeed, Qiu Huai De was dead. His family had also suffered an attack by unknown Evil Cultivators a few days ago. Over twenty family members, including three young wives, were tragically killed.

With a wound on his face and his arm wrapped in bandages, Fu Qingzhu vowed revenge in front of the camera, angrily cursing these Evil Cultivators as heartless and inhumane, and swore to bring justice to former president Qiu Huai De and his family!
