Chapter 72: The Nauseating Aristocratic Family, the Ox Demon Breaks His Vow
Chapter 72: The Nauseating Aristocratic Family, the Ox Demon Breaks His Vow
The rain fell in a dreary drizzle, drenching the heavens and earth.
The sky was a hazy gray, as if night had come early, making people feel incredibly confined and oppressed.
A thunderbolt tore through the night sky, and the sudden flash of light dispelled some darkness, but the water mist enveloped the entire Thunderstrike City, making visibility extremely low.
Outside the Xu Family's Divine Cultivation Academy.
Tall walls stood erect, and the guards responsible for security found a place to shelter from the rain.
They held their weapons, leaning against the doorway, listening to the rain pounding furiously on the black tiles, followed by the sound of splinters flying in all directions.
Ever since the Yang Family's Divine Cultivation Academy was attacked and the divine children were taken away, the Xu and An Families had strengthened their security around the academy, increasing the number of patrolling warriors.
The rain was truly heavy.
The cold winter had not yet passed, and such a heavy thunderstorm was rare.
The already cold temperature, coupled with the freezing rain, instantly became bone-chilling.
"This damn weather, it's like the gods are angry."
A tall, robust warrior guard, leaning against the door, glanced at the gray sky and muttered under his breath.
As a blood-transfused warrior, he had abundant qi and blood, naturally unafraid of the cold, but being unafraid was one thing, feeling uncomfortable was another.
"Don't let your guard down. In this kind of weather, it's the best time for those with ill intentions to make their move..."
An old warrior guard, with a dry tobacco pipe in his mouth, spoke softly.
This old warrior was also a blood-transfused cultivator, having undergone six blood transfusions, while the other guards were bone-tempered.
This lineup of guards was enough to show the An Family's high regard for the Divine Cultivation Academy.
"Boss, you're being too cautious. The An Family is a prominent family in Thunderstrike City. Who would dare to make a move on the Divine Cultivation Academy?"
"The Yang Family didn't have the kind of defenses we have..."
Several bone-tempered warrior guards laughed and spoke one after another.
However, before they could finish their words, the dense rain curtain was suddenly torn apart...
Accompanied by a howling whirlwind, the sound of air currents shattering and exploding! One by one, large hammers swung and danced, smashing down with great force! The overwhelming divine aura left the guards in utter shock, but in that moment of astonishment, their minds were seized, and the hammers smashed their heads, exploding into a spray of red and white blood!
The old warrior with the dry tobacco pipe, his eyes wide with anger, grabbed his long sword and jumped to his feet!
"Divine nature! Heart Shocking Firmness! Yang Family?!"
"Yang Family! How dare you?!"
The old warrior roared.
However, in the next instant, a robust figure suddenly tore through the rain curtain, accompanied by a wailing scream, and swung a large hammer, smashing it down directly.
The unstoppable blow shattered the head of the blood-transfused old warrior.
"Make your move."
Amidst the thick blood and gore.
A tall figure, wearing a shocked female child mask, spoke indifferently.
Several figures emerged from the corpses, grabbing the blood-dripping hammers and crashing into the rain curtain, rushing towards the Divine Cultivation Academy.
...
...
The heavy rain roared, causing pearl-like curtains to hang from the eaves.
Mu Granny, leaning on a python-headed staff, sat in a rattan chair, surrounded by rising steam. The dense fragrance of tea wafted through her nostrils as she picked up a teacup and poured in the milk she had prepared.
Milk tea was a way of drinking taught to her by an acquaintance, and it had a unique flavor that she quite liked.
Thinking of her acquaintance, Mu Granny's gaze involuntarily fell on Li Nuanxi, who was quietly meditating and nurturing her divine nature in the room filled with the warm scent of burning charcoal.
"My granddaughter has grown up so much..."
Mu Granny sighed, and as the past drifted away with the wind, she, too, growing old.
"Li Nuanxi, focus on your meditation and nurture your divine nature!"
Suddenly, Mu Granny straightened her face, and the python-headed staff thudded heavily on the ground.
Xi Xi, who had been half-closing her eyes and secretly glancing at the milk tea in Mu Granny's cup, was startled and quickly closed her eyes, pretending to be very focused.
Mu Granny felt a bit helpless. Li Nuanxi had an incredibly vast divine nature and was an excellent cultivation talent, born with the potential of a high-grade divine child.
However, her temperament was too lively. At just three years old, she was more agile than many four or five-year-old children.
"How could such a gentle and refined person like Master Li have a daughter who is so... restless."
Yes, Mu Granny couldn't help but use the word restless to describe her.
Apart from Lu Chi, whose child in the Divine Cultivation Academy hadn't been beaten up by Xi Xi?
Even four or five-year-old boys had no chance against three-year-old Xi Xi.
This little girl was incredibly good at fighting and extremely smart, the type who used her brain when fighting.
An innate fighting body...
The tyrant of the Divine Cultivation Academy!
Next to Xi Xi, Lu Chi also had his eyes closed. Suddenly, Lu Chi opened his eyes wide, and his Natacha braid swung vigorously as he turned his head to look outside the room, where the charcoal stove provided a cozy warmth.
There was a scent of blood...
And... a divine aura fluctuation!
Lu Chi frowned.
"Mu Granny! Lu Chi has opened his eyes! You scold him!"
A Xu Family child exclaimed in surprise.
Lu Chi rolled his eyes; these little brats were so immature. He, Lu Chi, was a genius inner disciple of the Qianyuan Divine Sect.
If not for protecting his junior sister who hadn't officially joined the sect yet, he wouldn't bother staying here.
"Lu Chi, close your eyes, or Granny Mu will beat you up!"
"Immature," Lu Chi scoffed.
However, as soon as he finished speaking, he regretted it.
"Lu Chi! You called me immature! I'll tell my father when I get back!"
Sure enough, Lu Chi saw Xixi beside him, hands on her hips, eyes wide, and smiling triumphantly.
Seeing the chaos about to unfold, Granny Mu grabbed her python-headed staff and stomped her feet repeatedly.
Just as she was about to open her mouth to scold them and restore order, her wrinkled face showed a subtle change.
"Children, stand up and hide inside the house!"
"Lu Chi, lead the way!"
Granny Mu's expression turned solemn, and her divine aura spread out, suppressing the restless classroom.
The sudden change in Granny's attitude scared the children, and they dared not hesitate as they followed Lu Chi into the depths of the house.
"Granny, is there a monster coming to catch us?"
Before leaving, Xixi turned her head to look at Granny Mu.
"Don't worry, Granny is here..."
Granny Mu smiled warmly.
Xixi also smiled brightly and said, "Then Granny, take care of yourself!"
After that, Xixi, led by Lu Chi, hid in the depths of the house.
Granny Mu was stunned, and in the next moment, her aged face bloomed with a smile, and warmth filled her heart.
The old woman stood up, turned her wicker chair in a different direction, facing the continuous downpour outside. The rain hit the ground, stirring up a gust of wind that blew in from outside.
Watching the white mist rising in the rain, she saw a robust figure outlined by the swirling water vapor.
The raging divine auras intertwined, filling the air with a disturbing and unsettling presence.
The old woman sighed.
"Heart-Shaking Firmness, the Yang Family..."
When the Yang Family's divine auras were unleashed so recklessly in the Xu Family's Divine Cult School, yet there was no sign of the Xu Family's divine aura practitioners like Xu Che, Xu Beihu, and the Xu Family's Elder Patriarch.
Granny Mu already understood.
"Noble families are indeed noble families, always chasing after their own interests and sacrificing everything..."
"These... they're all just children, how can they be so ruthless?"
Granny Mu spoke softly, thinking of Xixi's bright and adorable smile.
Her eyes softened at the thought of Xixi.
The old woman's python-headed staff suddenly twisted, and in the next moment, a sharp clanging sound accompanied the drawing out of a sharp sword from the staff.
In an instant, within the rain, infinite sword auras raged and intertwined, forming a sword energy python that charged towards the Yang Family's divine aura practitioners who held white chess pieces.
"Children, Granny is here..."
...
...
In the Strange Temple.
Li Che, with the Three-Eyed Wrathful Celestial Divine Child Temple statue in his hands, suddenly opened his eyes.
His body flashed, and he jumped down from the altar.
Behind the Cute Bull Mask, his eyes were ice-cold.
Within his chest...
The Chess Sage's Dao Fruit violently pulsed.
It was as if a casually placed chess piece was about to be taken.
Hidden within Xixi's body, the divine aura chess piece immediately responded to the crisis.
"Who dares to touch my daughter?!"
A murderous aura instantly spread from Li Che's body, causing the numerous red candles in the Strange Temple to start swaying.
With his eyes closed, he sensed the violently trembling divine aura chess piece anchor point.
Without hesitation, Li Che clenched his empty palm.
In the next moment, his palm grasped the white chess piece left within Xixi's body.
In this life, Li Che's goal was simple: a loving wife and children.
No matter who...
If they dare to harm his daughter...
He will kill them! The Ox Demon... was about to break his vow of non-violence.
