Free Web NovelChapter 129: Chapter 129: The Wang Family’s Old Ancestor Takes Action
"Looks like the Wang Family offended someone powerful. To think they could hire so many Black Market Killers—even Ghost Face has been mobilized. It’s truly incredible. Who in the entire Imperial Capital has that kind of power?"
"The Wang Family has really hit a streak of bad luck."
The fighting within the Wang Family estate naturally didn’t escape the notice of the masters in the Imperial Capital. However, none of them had any intention of intervening. They all hid in the shadows, content to watch. The Black Market Killers of the Imperial Capital were not a group that just anyone could afford to provoke.
"Heh, do you all know who hired this group of people?"
Just then, an old man spoke from the shadows, immediately drawing the attention of many. An Elder from the Su Family asked, "Oh? Brother Xiao, might you know the cause of this incident? Could you tell us about it?"
The Xiao Family Elder stroked his beard and chuckled. "Actually, I only just learned of this myself. According to my informant in the Black Market, the Wang Family’s calamity this time is because of a kill order issued by that Young National Hero, Qin Ya."
Hearing this, the crowd was astonished. "Qin Ya?! He has that kind of power, to make almost every master in the Black Market come out in full force? And what grudge does he have with the Wang Family to go to such lengths?"
"Heh, don’t forget, this Qin Ya is a Seventh-Grade Alchemist. From what I know, he’s offering a huge amount of Elixirs as a reward. Killing a Profound Origin Realm Martial Artist gets you a bottle of Third-Grade Elixir. A Spiritual Element Realm Martial Artist gets you a bottle of Fourth-Grade Elixir. An Earth Element Realm Martial Artist gets you a bottle of Fifth-Grade Elixir, and a Celestial Essence Realm Martial Artist gets you a bottle of Sixth-Grade Elixir... Moreover, you can choose any type of Elixir."
When the crowd heard this, shocked expressions appeared on all their faces. Even for them, who had long been in high positions and seen countless Exotic Treasures, the offer was tempting. The Lu Family Elder sighed and said, "So this is the rallying power of a Seventh-Grade Alchemist."
"No wonder it’s said that a single powerful Alchemist is enough to support an entire family. It’s really true," someone lamented.

The battle at the Wang Family estate raged like a wildfire. The fight between Ghost Face and Wang Mingxiu, in particular, was earth-shattering. Everywhere they passed, houses were reduced to rubble. However, both were controlling the scope of their battle. Otherwise, if two Extraordinary Strong People were to fight with their full power, the destruction would be absolutely devastating.
Wang Family, in the backyard.
A young man covered in blood was fighting a man in black. Just as the youth was about to be defeated, a Palm Seal appeared and forced the man in black to retreat. The newcomer was dressed in a red shirt, her beautiful face filled with a murderous Evil Qi.
"Hmph, a bunch of rats dare to invade my Wang Family."
The newcomer was none other than the lady of the Wang Family, Wang Yuanhong. Her body radiated an Evil Qi colder than that of most assassins. Seeing her, the man in black knew he was no match and immediately retreated. Wang Yuanhong saw this and sneered, "Trying to run? No chance!"
Just as she was about to give chase, she suddenly sensed a crisis approaching.
’Not good!’
Relying on her Martial Artist’s instincts, she dodged to the side. A splash of crimson flew through the air. A bloody hole had appeared on Wang Yuanhong’s shoulder. She stared in disbelief at the young man she had just saved and said coldly, "What are you doing?!"
The young man gave a cold smile. "Killing you, of course."
After speaking, his body moved like a Ghostly Charm as he stabbed with his sword. The biting Sword Light made Wang Yuanhong’s heart freeze. As she dodged, she spun and struck out with her palm, only to see the man pop like an illusory bubble. When he reappeared, his longsword was thrusting toward her chest, its tip glinting with Sword Aura. Wang Yuanhong was secretly alarmed. ’What a strange Body Technique.’
"There’s no such Body Technique in my Wang Family. Who are you?"
Wang Yuanhong narrowly dodged the incoming sword and spoke in an icy tone.
"Heh, remember that the one who killed you is... Thousand Faces!"
With that, Hua Wuchang’s longsword drew arcs of Sword Light, flowing like water as he hacked toward Wang Yuanhong, each strike aimed at a vital point.
"If you want to kill me, then you’d better be prepared to die."
Wang Yuanhong shouted coldly, her beautiful face filled with a crazed look. The power of her Earth Element Perfect Realm cultivation erupted from her, and a layer of Blazing Flame True Essence coated her palms.
"Kill!"
.........
Slaughter was unfolding in every corner of the Wang Family estate.
"Haha, Wang Gang, you seem to have gotten stronger since you lost your arm!" the Blade Demon, who wielded a great saber, laughed maniacally. Every time he swung his saber, he unleashed a powerful Blade Qi. The ground and walls were covered in slash marks.
Facing him, the one-armed Elder’s expression was grim. Although he had only one arm, the domineering Fire Serpents swirling around him forbade any underestimation. "Blade Demon, today I’ll make sure you don’t leave this place alive!"
"Then let’s see you try!"
The Blade Demon raised his saber to the sky. True Essence surged, and a tyrannical power gathered on the blade’s edge. That power radiated a frenzied, demonic Realm.
"Hmph, your Mad Demon Saber Technique has gotten stronger." freёweɓnovel.com
The one-armed Elder gave a cold laugh, then let out a deep shout. The domineering Fire Serpents around him suddenly roared, and their flames erupted, threatening to burn the very heavens and earth. From a distance, it looked like a Fire Dragon roaring.
The domineering Fire Serpent, like a great pillar, suddenly rammed toward the Blade Demon.
"Haha, come on!"
An utterly crazed expression appeared on the Blade Demon’s face. The Blade Aura on his saber condensed to its absolute limit. With one slash, a brilliant, dazzling blade light shot forth like a mad beast escaping its cage, devouring everything around it.
The Blade Aura and the Fire Serpent collided with a deafening BOOM. The immense shockwave spread out in a hundred-zhang radius. Everywhere it passed, houses were destroyed. Any Martial Artists caught in the blast, whether they were killers or Wang Family disciples, were instantly killed if their cultivation had not reached the Earth Element Realm.
"That lunatic Blade Demon is at it again."
A large man with a longspear slung over his shoulder cursed under his breath. He then swung his spear, creating an invisible barrier to block the powerful shockwave.
"Black Market Dog Thieves, die!" At that moment, a long saber slashed toward him. The large man curled his lip, spun, and thrust his longspear to block the saber.
"Dripping Water... Spear Technique!"
The longspear thrust out, aiming straight for the space between the Wang Family Elder’s eyebrows. The sharp, cold glint of its tip was terrifying. Seeing this, the Wang Family Elder said coldly, "Blazing Flame Storm!"
The long saber slashed out, unleashing an endless flurry of Blade Qi. ƒreewebɳovel.com
.........
High above the Wang Family estate, Wang Mingxiu stood on the void, looking down at the brutal battle below. His eyes were bloodshot, and his gaze transformed into a monstrous hatred for the enemy before him. "Ghost Face, you bastard, get out of my way and die!"
He blasted out a palm strike, and the world roiled. Endless flames burned across the entire sky. For a moment, the pitch-black Imperial Capital was as bright as day!
"Night Parade... of a Hundred Demons!"
Ghost Face sneered. Black energy erupted from his body, forming countless ghostly figures that threw themselves at the flames, one after another. With each ghost that perished, the flames weakened slightly.
’A Celestial Essence Master is worth a Sixth-Grade Elixir, so wouldn’t an Extraordinary Martial Artist be worth a Seventh-Grade Elixir? As long as I kill you, I can ask Qin Ya to refine a Resentful Ghost Pill for me. By then, my Night Parade of Hundred Demons will finally reach Great Success.’
Although Wang Mingxiu couldn’t see Ghost Face’s expression, he could hear from his tone that he was extremely excited right now.
"Night Parade of Hundred Demons? You won’t get the chance!"
Just then, a monstrous giant hand made of flames descended from the sky, pressing down on Ghost Face. At the same time, an incomparably powerful aura swept across the entire Wang Family estate.
Feeling this aura, a hint of joy appeared on Wang Mingxiu’s face.
’The Ancestor has made his move.’
