Chapter 202: Chapter 201: Complete Obliteration

After annihilating the elders, Yi Tianyun walked toward Patriarch Wang step by step, his gaze icy and devoid of any emotion.

"You... who the hell are you? When did our Wang Family ever offend you...?" Patriarch Wang struggled to his feet, his eyes filled with fury and indignation. The Wang Family, which he had built with his own hands, was gone just like that. ’How could he accept this?’

Although they were part of the Star Pavilion, they were just one part. If they were wiped out, it would be the end for them, and they would be completely cast out.

The surroundings were already a sea of flames. No matter how many people came, they died. This was the work of a butcher! The Wang Family was finished, wiped out by this one man and one Divine Beast with incredible ease. The Black Dragon’s flames, in particular, were enough to suppress everything here.

Yi Tianyun walked over step by step, squinting at him. "When did you offend me? Just two words: Lin Li. Understand now?"

"Lin Li offended you..." Patriarch Wang froze, then cursed in a rage, "That... that Lin Li isn’t even one of our Wang Family! You’ve got the wrong people, haven’t you? He’s from the Divine Rune Mansion, he has nothing to do with us! We’re the Star Pavilion! Do you know what the Star Pavilion is?!"

He cursed endlessly. ’If Lin Li really is the one who brought this upon us, then I’ll hate him to the grave for making such an enemy and causing the Wang Family to be wiped out.’

"No, Lin Li is just one of them... There’s also a pair of brothers, Wang Qing and King’s Water. Get it now?" Yi Tianyun said coldly.

"Elder Wang Qing..." Patriarch Wang’s pupils shrank. He asked in a trembling voice, "You... you’re that brat’s protector?!"

"No. It’s me." Yi Tianyun took off the Hundred-Change Mask, revealing his young face.

"It’s you!" 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖

Patriarch Wang’s eyes widened. He looked up to the sky and spat out a mouthful of blood, completely overwhelmed by this revelation. No matter how he racked his brain, he never would have imagined that Yi Tianyun himself would come to kill them! Not only was his talent with Divine Runes astonishing, but he also possessed such terrifying power.

"That’s right, it’s me. Surprised?" Yi Tianyun said with a cold smile as he approached. "Sending people to capture me, even taking one of my own to threaten me... you’ve got some nerve, don’t you? Now, I’ll slaughter your entire Wang Family and show you who you shouldn’t have provoked!"

"You... don’t do anything rash! I-I’m a Patriarch of the Star Pavilion! If you kill me, the Star Pavilion will not let you get away with this!"

The Star Pavilion was his last straw, his only hope of scaring the other party off. He didn’t realize that this would only enrage Yi Tianyun further. Pulling rank meant nothing to Yi Tianyun. No matter the faction, as long as they provoked him, he would annihilate them all!

"And like this, who do you think will recognize me?" Yi Tianyun put the Hundred-Change Mask back on, instantly transforming into someone else.

"You... you..."

Patriarch Wang was rendered speechless. It was true, there was no way to recognize him now; the transformation looked too real. The combination of rage and shock caused him to spit up more blood before he fainted, losing consciousness completely. He was already seriously injured, and this final revelation was enough to make him pass out.

WHOOSH!

Yi Tianyun tossed out the Immortal Fire, which enveloped Patriarch Wang and began to burn fiercely. Soon, he was as dead as could be, without a single trace of life left. The nearby Elder Wang Shaohua was also eliminated by him.

"Ding! Successfully killed Patriarch Wang. Obtained 270,000 Experience, 3,600 Madness Value, 1,000 Divine Rune Mastery, and 100 Sin Value! Obtained Wave Cloud Palm, Celestial Wind Fist. Obtained items: Divine Rune Paper (High-Grade), Ten Thousand Experience Pills."

"Ding! Successfully killed a Wang Family Elder. Obtained Experience..."

He had killed them with ease, gaining a ton of experience, all of it boosted by the 8x Madness Mode. He couldn’t pass up this opportunity; as long as there was experience to be gained, he wouldn’t hesitate to activate Madness Mode.

’I’d better hurry,’ he thought. ’It’ll be trouble if reinforcements arrive.’

It wasn’t that Yi Tianyun feared the incoming reinforcements, but he couldn’t be bothered to deal with people who had no grudge against him. He immediately began to loot the area, collecting all of their Storage Rings and everything in the Treasure House up ahead.

He was desperately short on resources right now and needed to find a lot more. This was the only way to strengthen his sect; otherwise, reaching the level of a third-grade sect would remain a distant dream. ’This main quest isn’t simple at all!’

He quickly finished looting. Upon exiting, he turned and activated his Phoenix Wings, flying off without needing the Black Dragon. He soon vanished into the horizon, leaving the Wang Family estate engulfed in a sea of fire. From this day forward, the Wang Family was effectively destroyed. Although it could be rebuilt, its Vitality was critically wounded. It would take decades, if not centuries, to recover to its former strength.

Not long after he left, reinforcements arrived. Many Spirit Pill Stage experts rushed over, but they were all dumbfounded by the sight of the blazing inferno.

"What happened? It’s only been a short while, and it’s already like this? Couldn’t Patriarch Wang and the others even hold them off?"

These elder-level experts had all rushed over, only to be shocked by the sight of Patriarch Wang and the others, who had been burned to a crisp.

"This fire is so powerful, it doesn’t seem to be an ordinary flame... Could the one who killed Patriarch Wang be an Alchemist or an Artifact Refiner?" They all frowned, feeling that this matter was not simple. They just didn’t know what kind of power Patriarch Wang had provoked.

"I don’t know. We can only go back and report what we’ve found. It looks like the Wang Family is finished. I wonder what kind of power he provoked. To dare to make a move like this, even knowing we’re from the Star Pavilion... the other party must be anything but simple."

"Could it be an Imperial Influence?"

"An Imperial Influence? That’s possible... but how could Patriarch Wang have provoked an Imperial Influence? Isn’t that just asking for death?"

They all shook their heads, unsure of the situation, and could only choose to return for now. The Wang Family had been completely annihilated, and all they could do was report back.

Soon, news that the Wang Family had been wiped out spread rapidly, shocking many factions. This was a direct slap in the face to the Star Pavilion, so how could they not be furious? They quickly issued a wanted notice and, based on information gathered from various sources, immediately identified a suspect.

Wanted: The culprit is approximately 26 or 27 years old. Cultivation level is unknown. Possesses a Black Dragon Divine Beast! Anyone who can provide information will receive a third-grade Elixir Pill! Anyone who captures him and brings him back alive will receive one high-grade Soul Artifact, one fifth-grade Elixir Pill, and one million gold taels! He must be captured alive; do not kill him under any circumstances.

There was even a portrait on the wanted notice. When Yi Tianyun had attacked, a few Wang Family disciples had seen his face and managed to escape. So, his appearance was known. Little did they know, this piece of information was completely useless.
