Urban Invincible Overlord
Chapter 1463 - 1460: Wan Daorong Loses His Temper
In the face of the threat from Wang Yuanxiao and Bai Xumi, Yang Fei remained very calm inside.
He knew very well that before Wang Xingpeng was released, this couple would not really dare to deal him a deadly blow.
Moreover, with Wan Daorong, Shen Wanjing, and Li Shuya present, the deterrence of these three made Wang Yuanxiao and Bai Xumi somewhat apprehensive.
However, Yang Fei did not dare to stir up more trouble.
This couple was too protective of their child. Even if they didn’t dare to kill him, making him suffer a bit would be effortless for them.
At that, Yang Fei thought, and the artifact spirit of the Ten Directions Heavenly Furnace released Wang Xingpeng.
"Ah... ah..."
The terrified screams resounded in the sky above Piaomiao Stream.
"Peng’er!"
"Son!"
Wang Yuanxiao and Bai Xumi were shocked and rushed to surround Wang Xingpeng, examining their son’s injuries.
The others also turned their gaze to the screaming and wailing Wang Xingpeng, frowning instantly, and many showed expressions of astonishment.
Wang Xingpeng’s clothes were intact, and his body was even protected by the Exquisite Golden Tower. However, his face was deathly pale, and his Qi mechanism was feeble, as if he had been entangled by something sinister for a long time, losing all his masculine vigor, and his vital energy was extremely depleted.
Besides the physical injuries, he seemed to have encountered unprecedented terror, and his spirit and will had suffered great trauma. Although he was released now, his eyes were filled with terror, crying and shouting.
Wang Yuanxiao struck his son with a Soul Suppressing Talisman and admonished, "Peng’er, calm down, it’s all right now."
The voice of the Divinity Transformation Realm Master resounded like a giant bell, dispelling the fear in Wang Xingpeng’s heart. With the additional effect of the Soul Suppressing Talisman, Wang Xingpeng finally calmed down.
Seeing his parents looking at him with concern, Wang Xingpeng, like a wronged child, tearfully cried in his mother Bai Xumi’s arms: "Mother, it was too... too terrifying. I... I suffered greatly. The essence blood and life Qi mechanism in me were mostly devoured by this evil thing; my realm fell, and I fear I will never recover. Will... will I die soon?"
Yang Fei and Tong Yunshu were dumbfounded on the spot.
Lu Qingyue was also stupefied.
Other strong individuals present showed strange expressions one by one.
The powerful figures of the Shang Qing Sect glanced at each other. Most looked away, and a few gazed at Wang Xingpeng and Bai Xumi with more sympathy than the previous disappointment.
Yes.
Sympathy for Wang Yuanxiao and Bai Xumi, the couple.
This was the beloved son they pampered to the extreme from childhood.
One could only wonder how many resources were squandered by this couple to push him to the Core Formation Realm cultivation.
With such temperament, even if promoted to the Nascent Soul Stage, he would still be a useless show-off.
Ruined!
Completely ruined.
Bai Xumi held her son heartbroken, softly comforting him.
Wang Yuanxiao was equally heartbroken, yet feeling the eyes of those around, he couldn’t help but feel his old face redden.
This darling son was truly disappointing. Although he suffered great blows and setbacks, he was being so unstable at this moment, acting like a spoiled child, truly costing him face.
"Shut up, haven’t you lost enough face already?"
In embarrassment and anger, Wang Yuanxiao barked sternly at Wang Xingpeng.
Shocked by his father’s fierce voice, Wang Xingpeng regained some senses. Seeing so many senior experts observing him as if watching a show, he felt both ashamed and angry. Pointing at Yang Fei, he said to Bai Xumi, "Mother, it’s this little thief who harmed me like this. You must avenge me."
Bai Xumi, who cherished her only son so dearly, felt heartache seeing him like this. She immediately looked up at Yang Fei, releasing an undisguised, icy killing intent.
Yang Fei was taken aback.
Although he hadn’t interacted with women like Bai Xumi before, he had heard of them. 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚
Such women were insanely dangerous. Having treated her son this way, she definitely resented him to the core and might disregard everything to attack him.
"Wang Yuanxiao, Bai Xumi, your son is already safe. Shouldn’t I also take my little brother away?" Shen Wanjing’s timely voice came through.
At the same time, a formidable pressure swept over.
Wang Yuanxiao was fine, but Bai Xumi, never having truly crossed into the Divinity Transformation Realm, found Shen Wanjing’s momentum too overbearing, and her expression drastically changed from planning to strike at Yang Fei to vigilantly watching Shen Wanjing with full alertness.
Yang Fei cast a grateful glance at Shen Wanjing.
At this moment, Wan Daorong also called out, "Fei’er, come to me."
Yang Fei was overjoyed, but he did not dare act rashly. Instead, he cautiously asked Wang Yuanxiao, "Master Wang, can I leave?"
There was no choice, despite Shen Wanjing and Wan Daorong backing him up, he was too close to Wang Yuanxiao and Bai Xumi. If they disagreed with his departure and wanted to kill him, it would be as easy as flipping a hand.
"Humph, boy, you harmed my Peng’er like this and still wish to leave just like that?" Bai Xumi snorted angrily, ready to make a move.
Understanding his dao companion’s temper, Wang Yuanxiao felt a chill in his heart and quickly admonished her, "Don’t be rash."
He then looked up at Shen Wanjing and Wan Daorong, saying, "Master Shen, Senior Brother Wan, you saw with your own eyes--our child Xingpeng was harmed like this by this boy. According to the rules of the Shang Qing Sect, shouldn’t Yang Fei also receive severe punishment, instead of leaving without consequences?"
Wan Daorong retorted angrily, "Junior Brother Wang, don’t you truly know what kind of character your son has? Today’s affair was his own doing. My disciple did not kill him, granting him mercy in honor of our fellowship. Now releasing him shows my disciple’s magnanimous spirit, sparing you any quarrel. Yet you still cause trouble for him as if my people from Tian Nan Peak are easy to bully?"
Wang Yuanxiao retorted, "How could today’s affair be my Peng’er’s fault? We are still unclear about the ins and outs; how can you make a single decision, Senior Brother Wan?"
Expecting this response, Wan Daorong turned to Lu Qingyue and asked, "Did you see everything that happened before?"
Lu Qingyue immediately felt the gaze of dozens of strong individuals on her, especially the looks from Wang Yuanxiao and Bai Xumi, which were as sharp as knives and intimidating, making her tremble with fear.
Seeing this, Wan Daorong became furious.
A sudden burst of violent aura erupted from him, instantly blocking the piercing looks from Wang Yuanxiao and Bai Xumi.
"Wang Yuanxiao, Bai Xumi, you dare to threaten my Tian Nan Peak disciple right before my eyes. Must you force my hand? Even if the two of you join forces, I, Wan Daorong, have little assurance. But if I’m set on killing your treasured son, you can’t protect him forever." Wan Daorong, full of murderous intent, glared at Bai Xumi.
Wang Yuanxiao and Bai Xumi’s expressions changed drastically, both angry and surprised.
They never expected that the usually gentle Wan Daorong could utter such resolute words.
