"A mere beast! How dare you show disrespect to this old man? I shall kill you and this ignorant brat together!"
"Shadow Wind Art!"
Xu Feng directly unleashed his ultimate move, clearly enraged.
But the little black dog remained unhurried, even using its little paw to scratch an itch. Just as Xu Feng was about to strike, it opened its small mouth—
"Boom!"
The spiritual energy ball it had previously swallowed was spat out, completely intact!
Its power was even more than ten times that of when Xu Feng released it!
"Bang!"
A tremendous sound echoed. Xu Feng had no chance to retaliate before being crushed by the spiritual energy ball spat out by the little black dog.
A peak Yellow-grade expert, perished!
Yan Jiaojiao had already returned underground. It seemed her worry for the little black dog earlier was completely unnecessary.
She knew that something summoned by her, a dignified thousand-year-old ancestor, couldn't possibly be just a mere pet that knew how to act cute!
"Now, it's your turn."
Yan Jiaojiao's gaze was cold and sharp as she looked at Yan Ruoliu and Yan Rou'er.
Today, she would reclaim the benevolent bone for the original host.
Yan Ruoliu snapped out of her shock.
She pointed a trembling finger at Yan Jiaojiao: "You... you actually killed Elder Xu Feng, whom father spent a fortune to invite back!"
"So what if I killed him? Not only him, but you will also die today."
Yan Jiaojiao smiled cruelly and strode towards Yan Rou'er with her sword.
The little black dog had already descended from the air and was lazily lounging on the chair where Yan Jiaojiao had been sitting.
Indeed, this little thing had rather appealing tastes. It was good that these annoying humans were all killed, putting an end to everything.
Yan Rou'er was so terrified that she went limp on the ground, crawling desperately towards Yan Ruoliu.
"Sister Ruoliu, save me! I don't want to die! Yan Jiaojiao, I have no grievances with you. It was all Yan Ruoliu's instigation. Kill Yan Ruoliu and let me go!"
"Bitch! What nonsense are you spouting!" Yan Ruoliu was furious and kicked Yan Rou'er.
"It was you! You told me to trick Yan Jiaojiao! You were jealous of Yan Jiaojiao!"
To save her life, Yan Rou'er cried hysterically, pushing all the blame onto Yan Ruoliu.
Unfortunately, Yan Jiaojiao had no mercy.
She raised her sword and plunged it into Yan Rou'er's lower abdomen, extracting a round inner core and crushing it into powder.
"I am a fair person. How you treated me, I will return to you tenfold."
Yan Rou'er screamed in pain and fainted.
Then, Yan Jiaojiao turned her attention to Yan Ruoliu.
Yan Ruoliu felt a chill run down her spine under Yan Jiaojiao's gaze.
For some reason, she felt that this supposed weakling had changed completely.
Being stared at by her was as terrifying as being eyed by some ancient beast.
Yan Ruoliu subconsciously swallowed. Her pride wouldn't allow her to bow to Yan Jiaojiao.
She summoned her artifact, intending to attack Yan Jiaojiao.
The little black dog saw this and casually waved its paw.
Instantly, Yan Ruoliu found herself unable to even command her spiritual energy!
Soon, she even lost control of her body.
Overwhelming fear engulfed Yan Ruoliu. Her face contorted in terror, and she could only stand frozen, watching as Yan Jiaojiao, like a god of death, approached her step by step with her long sword.
The pressure caused fine beads of cold sweat to break out on Yan Ruoliu's forehead.
Finally, she couldn't hold on any longer and knelt on the ground with a "plop," begging for forgiveness.
"Yan Jiaojiao... Sister Jiaojiao, please spare me. We are sisters!"
Yan Jiaojiao looked at her with disdain.
If Yan Ruoliu had remained defiant, she might have felt a sliver of respect for her. But now...
Disgusting.
"If I spare you, who spared Yan Jiaojiao?"
Yan Jiaojiao's voice was soft. She raised her sword and plunged it into Yan Ruoliu's body.
"Ah!"
Yan Ruoliu's shrill scream echoed, but it did not deter the movement of Yan Jiaojiao's sword tip.
Recalling the pain the original host had endured, Yan Jiaojiao slowly, bit by bit, separated Yan Ruoliu's flesh and blood from her benevolent bone.
She would make Yan Ruoliu pay back the original host's suffering a millionfold!
Finally, a benevolent bone glowing with golden light was extracted. Yan Ruoliu was completely drenched in blood and sweat, her former arrogant demeanor gone.
After gouging out the benevolent bone, Yan Jiaojiao still wasn't finished with her.
She raised her sword again and extracted Yan Ruoliu's inner core.
"Bitch! Bitch! When Father and my eldest sister return, I will ensure you have a terrible end! I will have you eaten alive by ten thousand insects and die in agony!"
Yan Ruoliu finally couldn't hold back and started cursing.
Yan Jiaojiao was not angered. After extracting and crushing the inner core, she sneered, "Oh? Then I shall wait and see."
With that, she kicked the now crippled Yan Ruoliu aside like a dead dog.
"I'm tired and need to rest. Do not disturb me."
Casually instructing the stunned Yan family servants, Yan Jiaojiao followed her memories back to the original host's room.
Of course, before leaving, she didn't forget to grab the little black dog by the scruff of its neck and take it with her.
The little black dog was furious and gnashed its teeth at Yan Jiaojiao!
This damned woman! How dare she grab this venerable one by the scruff of his neck! Just wait until I eat her!
However, Yan Jiaojiao paid no attention to its struggles; she was exhausted and needed to rest.
The other Yan family servants looked at Xu Feng's corpse and their two crippled young ladies, exchanging bewildered glances.
Such a major incident had occurred in the Yan family; what were they to do?
A slightly older servant immediately made a decision:
"Several of you, properly bury Elder Xu Feng's remains and escort the two young ladies back. Find the best physicians to treat them."
"You all, clean up the courtyard."
"You, go and send word to the master that a crisis has occurred at home and ask him to return!"
"Remember, everything that happened today must be kept strictly confidential. Not a single word can be uttered outside!"
If Yan Jiaojiao had returned as a cripple, it would have been one thing, but she had a demonic beast by her side capable of killing a peak Yellow-grade expert!
Who among them dared to offend her?
This matter could only be decided after Yan Zhengfeng returned!
Yan Jiaojiao was naturally unaware of the Yan family servants' thoughts. She was already carrying the little black dog back to the original host's room.
Although the original host's room was not opulent, it was meticulously organized and very cozy, with several spiritual plants by the window.
Yan Jiaojiao put down the snarling little black dog in her arms and casually said:
"I used a life-bound summon. You are destined to be bound to me for this life and follow me. If you are to accompany me, you must have a name. How about I call you Little Black? What do you think?"
