Son-in-law Heaven Emperor Xiao Yi-Chapter 450: Whoever harms my brother, must be killed!

```

In the void.

The winged snake flew with its wings spread, the mountains and rivers below incessantly reversing with astonishing speed.

Xiao Yi opened his eyes and uttered gravely, "Yang Ling, in your view, what kind of strong character would the Tianjian Sect send over?"

After the journey to the Northern Ice Plains, Yang Kun had gained a deeper understanding of Xiao Yi's strength and would naturally not dare to take him lightly.

Inviting a master from the Tianjian Sect to assist was the most prudent method!

Yang Ling pondered for a moment and said, "Yang Kun seems arrogant and flamboyant but is in fact extremely cautious. I fear this time, the Tianjian Sect might send an elder-level powerhouse. It might even be that person..."

Elders were in the Dharma Manifestation Realm, while patriarchs were in the Nirvana Realm.

As for the person he was referring to, it was naturally the Great Qian Dynasty's number one genius—Xiao Tianjiao!

Xiao Yi narrowed his eyes. With his current cultivation at the Peak of the Tao Tribulation Realm, even if he had mastered the fifth realm of Sword Intent, which was 'All Swords Return to One,' he could at best only compete against those in the Second Nirvana of the Nirvana Realm.

If he wanted to be completely sure of success, he had only one option left—to advance further.

Xiao Yi took a deep breath and muttered to himself, "In that case, I must step into the Dharma Manifestation Realm as soon as possible!"

"With your current cultivation, you are only a step away from the Dharma Manifestation Realm, lacking only the meditation to condense your Dharma. Have you chosen your target yet?" Yang Ling asked.

The strength of the object of Dharma Likeness Meditation not only decides the strength of one's power after breaking through to the Dharma Manifestation Realm but also determines how far one can go in the future. Many strong characters at the peak of the Tao Tribulation Realm, even if they had the realm to break through to the Dharma Manifestation Realm, would delay for a long time in search of a suitable object for Dharma Likeness Meditation.

Xiao Yi had tried the Dragon and Tiger Seal but it didn't suit him.

He had also tried meditating on the mountains and rivers of the world, the stars, and the sea—still, none were suitable.

As for the Iron Winged Serpent Dragon...

It was ruined by Yang Kun before he could even attempt it.

"President Xiao, within my Ten Thousand Beasts Sect, there are indeed many formidable demon beasts. Considering your relationship with my master, perhaps he would agree to let you meditate on our sect's sacred beast. Though it's not as good as the Iron Winged Serpent Dragon, it is a truly genuine seventh-order demon beast..." Shen Mo said in a deep voice.

Xiao Yi nodded, "If there is really a need, I will visit the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect!"

The journey was uneventful.

The speed of the winged snake's flight was extremely fast, and by nightfall of that day, Xiao Yi and his companions had returned to the imperial capital.

However, upon their arrival at the imperial capital, they were faced with the immediate approach of a familiar figure.

The person was none other than Qi, the old eunuch at Emperor Qian's side.

"Eunuch Qi, what brings you here?"

Yang Ling, having just dismounted from the winged snake, asked with a puzzled face.

"I pay my respects to Your Highness! This servant is here by His Majesty's command to seek President Xiao..."

Eunuch Qi bowed to Yang Ling, his expression complex as he looked at Xiao Yi and spoke solemnly, "President Xiao, His Majesty invites you!"

Xiao Yi narrowed his eyes slightly, already having some guesses in his mind, and spoke indifferently, "Lead the way!"

"Please!"

Eunuch Qi then promptly led Xiao Yi away.

......

Inside the magnificent palace.

Under Eunuch Qi's guidance, Xiao Yi met Emperor Qian who was reviewing memorials. He saluted, "Xiao Yi pays his respects to Your Majesty!"

"Hmm!"

Emperor Qian set down the memorial in his hand, walked around from behind the desk, approached Xiao Yi, and said gravely, "I have learned of what happened in the Northern Ice Plains. You have made significant contributions to the Great Qian Dynasty, and I will reward you handsomely!"

Emperor Qian patted Xiao Yi's shoulder, a look of gratification on his face.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

```

Xiao Yi nodded, but his expression lacked any joy; instead, it was somewhat heavy.

Given the intelligence in the hands of Emperor Qian,

he must be aware of the news about Little Lin being taken away by Yang Kun. Yet, Emperor Qian had not uttered a word about it, indicating he might also intend to protect Yang Kun. However, Xiao Yi did not expose this thought and simply watched Emperor Qian quietly.

The two of them locked eyes,

nobody spoke.

The atmosphere inside the room was oppressively tense to the point of being suffocating.

Hu!

A breath of stale air was exhaled from Emperor Qian's mouth, he had intended to wait for Xiao Yi to speak first, but, to his surprise, even His Majesty Emperor Qian found himself at a disadvantage in this silent standoff.

Emperor Qian let out a wry smile and said, "Xiao Yi, you should know what I intend to say!"

Xiao Yi nodded, his eyes revealing a resolute determination, and he said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty should also know my answer!"

Emperor Qian was taken aback as he had wanted to persuade Xiao Yi not to quarrel with Yang Kun over a beast.

But Xiao Yi's unwavering attitude forced Emperor Qian to swallow back his words, his expression shifting uncertainly as he said in a grave voice, "Xiao Yi, I can compensate you... Didn't your previous trip to Divine Beast Mountain get disrupted by Kun'er? I will personally persuade the Iron-Winged Chi Dragon to grant you ample meditation time..."

The Iron-Winged Chi Dragon was the Great Qian Dynasty's national beast, with combat power comparable to a challenger of the Nine Nirvana Realm.

It was an exceedingly powerful subject for Dharma Likeness Meditation.

It could be said...

That in the vast Great Qian Dynasty, no other beast was stronger than it!

In Emperor Qian's opinion, he had already made such a significant concession that Xiao Yi had no reason to refuse.

However...

Xiao Yi looked deeply at Emperor Qian, a glint of icy resolve flickering in his eyes as he spoke deliberately, "Even if you were to hand over the entire Great Qian Dynasty to me, it would not compare to even one scale or claw of Little Lin!"

Hiss!

Emperor Qian's face changed drastically.

Qi, who was standing beside him, also showed a look of shock as he quickly made eye contact with Xiao Yi.

This was tantamount to offending the emperor's dignity, an act of treason!

Xiao Yi seemed oblivious, paying no mind to Emperor Qian's darkening mood and calmly said, "Your Majesty, please relay a message to Yang Kun for me. If he dares to harm Little Lin in the slightest, I will grind his bones to dust and scatter his ashes to the wind!"

Grind!

Bones!

Scatter!

Ashes!

The last four words were like battle drums, thundering like lightning.

Every word reverberated, every word a sentence of death!

"Xiao Yi, you need to think this through carefully. The power of the subject of your Dharma Likeness Meditation not only affects the strength of your Dharma Manifestation Realm prowess but also relates to the future, whether you can achieve a realm beyond the Dharma Manifestation," said Emperor Qian with a murderous flash in his eyes. This was a challenge to the imperial authority, and his face turned exceedingly ugly as he continued with a somber tone, "Other than myself, you will not find a more powerful subject for meditation in the entire Great Qian Dynasty. Without my help, you can forget about catching up to Xiao Tianjiao; you will be stepped on by him for the rest of your life. Are you sure you want to destroy your bright future for the sake of that tiny beast?"

Qi bowed his head meekly, keeping his head low, as he urgently transmitted his thoughts in secret, "Xiao Yi, don't act impulsively. Xiao Tianjiao's meditation subject is not the slightest bit weaker than the Iron-Winged Chi Dragon and the Dragon and Tiger Seal. If you miss this chance, how can you ever hope to catch up with Xiao Tianjiao?"

Emperor Qian said coldly, "Xiao Yi, you better think it over."

Hu!

Xiao Yi paused his footsteps, his clenched fists quietly unclenching as he took a long breath of stale air, and with a sharp, resolute gaze fixed on the two, he said in a deep voice, "Little Lin is my brother; anyone who dares to touch my brother, no matter what their status might be, I—Will—Kill—Them!"
