Chapter 75 The Three Elders’ Soul Lamps Go Out

After Xu Yan and Qiao Yanran got engaged, it would still be some time before the wedding day.

During this period, he still needed to Cultivate diligently, and even after getting married, he would not indulge in comfort but continue to Cultivate.

This was because Xu Yan deeply understood that the previous marriage proposal had offended the Lan Family, and his Family members were somewhat nervous, fearing the Lan Family's reckless retaliation.

Feeling guilty, Xu Yan could only constantly remind himself to Cultivate hard and strengthen the Xu Family so that similar incidents would not happen again.

Therefore, when Xu Luo informed them that they would be setting off again soon for the Demon Cloud Mountain Range, he was still the first to sign up.

After confirming the departure list, Xu Luo went to Xu Qingzhou's courtyard.

Normally, Little Grey was free-range in the Xu Family, either following Xu Luo or running around everywhere, and everyone in the Family knew it.

However, when going to see Xu Qingzhou, Xu Luo didn't dare to bring Little Grey, fearing it wouldn't leave once it arrived.

Xu Luo still vividly remembered the scene of Little Grey looking back three times with every step when he took it away last time.

Xu Luo bowed and said, "Sixth Uncle, I didn't come to see you this time, but to see Auntie."

"Oh?" Xu Qingzhou was a little surprised; this was the first time.

So Xu Qingzhou sent a message to Su Xinyan in the backyard, and she came over shortly.

"Auntie," Xu Luo respectfully called out. In his previous life, Su Xinyan was someone he looked up to for a long time.

Normally, only Xu Qingzhou and Su Xinyan were in this courtyard; occasionally, Xu Muge and Xu Luo would visit, but no one else.

Only the two of them knew that Su Xinyan had been staying with the Xu Family.

Su Xinyan was also quite familiar with Xu Luo, this outstanding member of the Xu Family.

Su Xinyan nodded, "Feel free to speak if you have something."

Xu Qingzhou's nephew was her nephew, and of course, Xu Muge, this nephew, could also be a Junior Brother.

Little did she know, in his previous life, Xu Luo had joined the Lingyue Sect and was also considered her Junior Brother.

Xu Luo did not stand on ceremony and got straight to the point.

"You should know about the marriage proposal to the Qiao family a few days ago. As far as I know, the Lan Family Clan Leader not only dotes on his son but also holds grudges and seeks revenge. The previous incident must have left them resentful and looking for an opportunity to retaliate."

"I'm about to lead the Bandit Suppression Squad to the Demon Cloud Mountain Range. I'm worried that the Lan Family might send people to ambush us, so I'd like to ask you to accompany us and hide in the shadows. When the time comes, we can turn their plan against them and eliminate the Lan Family's strong Cultivators."

[In my previous life, I cultivated in the Lingyue Sect for many years and had some impression of this Lan Family. Lan Jiang, in order to vent his anger for his son Lan Jiaxin, even dared to send people to assassinate Lingyue Sect Disciples, let alone the current Xu Family members.]

[Although I still have some trump cards, when facing multiple Purple Mansion Realm strong Cultivators, I can only guarantee my own safe escape. I cannot protect others, much less counter-kill.]

Xu Luo was at the early Xuan Dan Realm. The Lan Family was highly likely to send Purple Mansion Realm strong Cultivators. At this moment, no matter how monstrous he was, even using all his trump cards, he could only guarantee his escape from a Purple Mansion Realm strong Cultivator.

Moreover, there could be several Purple Mansion Realm Cultivators.

So, either don't go out, or find strong Cultivators to protect you.

Su Xinyan naturally wouldn't refuse such a small matter.

"Alright, you can proceed as normal. If they really follow behind, I will take action directly."

Xu Luo replied, "Thank you, Auntie."

"We are Family, no need to be polite," Su Xinyan replied.

Although she was not officially married to Xu Qingzhou yet, she already considered herself a member of the Xu Family. Naturally, she wouldn't decline such a small request.

With no worries about the future, Xu Luo led the Bandit Suppression Squad out of Lingyue City, controlling the flying boat and speeding towards the Demon Cloud Mountain Range.

The Lingyue Sect was originally in the eastern part of the Great Qi Dynasty, very close to the border. The Demon Cloud Mountain Range was on the border of the Great Qi Dynasty, so the distance was not far.

When Xu Luo and the others left the Xu Family, the three Purple Mansion Realm strong Cultivators arranged by Lan Jiang from the Lan Family had already received the news and were quietly following behind them, maintaining a certain distance.

To be safe, they planned to act only after reaching the Demon Cloud Mountain Range, as instructed by Lan Jiang.

Along the way, the three chatted.

"I don't know what the Clan Leader is thinking. Although these few young men are the outstanding talents of the younger generation of the Xu Family, there is only one at the early Xuan Dan Realm, and the rest are at the Naling Realm. He actually sent three of us Purple Mansion Cultivators to act together."

"Although the Clan Leader is being a bit overly cautious, it's always right to be careful. I heard that Xu Luo, the leader, was in the Royal Capital before and instantly killed a Xuan Dan Realm Cultivator with one move while only at the Naling Realm, showing how exaggerated his monstrous talent is."

"Who cares about Heavenly Prodigies? There have been many Heavenly Prodigies throughout history. If the Xu Family doesn't have enough strength to protect him as he grows up, he is nothing."

"That's right. Only Heavenly Prodigies who can grow up are called Heavenly Prodigies."

Just then, a clear and cold voice drifted past their ears.

"I didn't expect you would actually come."

The three immediately became extremely alert!

Because the voice was very close, yet they hadn't detected it at all, which was an extremely dangerous situation.

"Who is it!"

They even took out their weapons directly, watching the surroundings vigilantly, with their magic power surging inside, ready for battle at any time.

Suddenly, a figure appeared behind them, dressed in a cyan robe, with long hair draped over her shoulders, and an exceptionally beautiful appearance.

Su Xinyan had no malicious intentions and did not want to waste time with them. The moment she appeared, she waved her right hand.

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"

She used her finger as a sword, emitting three streaks of sword light, filled with terrifying killing intent.

In an instant, Sword Intent permeated and filled this entire space.

"Puff!"

"Puff!"

The three widened their eyes and couldn't utter a single word before being cut open by the sword light.

It was too fast; not even blood flowed out.

Su Xinyan waved her hand again, retrieved their Storage Rings, and turned to return to Lingyue City.

Her demeanor was calm and collected, as if what she had just done was merely an insignificant small matter.

After returning to the Xu Family, she gave the three Storage Rings to Xu Qingzhou.

"I need to go into seclusion for a while."

"Alright."

Su Xinyan returned directly to the Lingyue Sect. This time, she was going into seclusion to break through to the middle Nascent Soul Realm, so it was better to be in the Lingyue Sect where the spiritual energy was abundant.

The moment the three Purple Mansion Realm Cultivators of the Lan Family died, their soul lamps left in the Lan Family were extinguished.

Seeing this scene, the Lan Family members were terrified, even doubting if they were seeing things. They rubbed their eyes and looked carefully, confirming that they were indeed extinguished.

His heart trembled, and he stumbled to report to the Clan Leader Lan Jiang.

When Lan Jiang heard the news, he suddenly stood up, and a powerful Aura emanated from him, like a towering peak pressing down on the Family member guarding the soul lamps.

"What did you say?!"

This Family member's cultivation was limited, and he was directly pressed to the ground by Lan Jiang's powerful Aura, suffering immensely.

"The three… Elder's soul lamps, they're extinguished…"

Lan Jiang's figure disappeared instantly and reappeared at the place where the soul lamps were kept. Upon seeing them, he felt dizzy and almost couldn't stand steady.

He had arranged for three Elders to ambush Xu Luo and the others, and they died shortly after setting off.

How could this happen!!!

How could the Xu Family, a fourth-rate force, have a strong Cultivator exceeding the Purple Mansion Realm appear??

Did the Xu Family invite a Lingyue Sect Elder to protect them?

It must be!

Other than this possibility, Lan Jiang couldn't think of any other explanation.

Lan Jiang was both angry and remorseful. He originally wanted to retaliate against the Xu Family, but unexpectedly, his Lan Family suffered heavy losses because of it, truly a case of trying to steal a chicken only to lose the bait.

Those were three Purple Mansion Realm strong Cultivators! Each one was crucial to the Lan Family.

Without them, the Lan Family's foundation would be greatly reduced, and it would take at least a hundred years to recover.

Lan Jiang's eyes were splitting with rage, and he gritted his teeth.

"Xu Family! I want you to pay for this with blood!!!"
