(Btw, Enjoy the chapter)

--- Chapter 28 ---

On the douluo continent, the sun shines brightly illuminates the world.

At the highest peak of the Rising cloud sect, we can see a middle-aged man opening his eyes.

''All of the elders were dead, including Brother Lie,'' The middle-aged man calmly said, while staring at the morning sun.

But we can feel clearly that there a trace of coldness in his voice.

A woman in a white gown appearing on the peak, ''Sect leader,'' The voice of a woman was coming behind the middle-aged man.

''The elders!'' The woman added with a worried tone.

''I already know,'' The middle-aged man replied.

The woman in the white was stunned.

She wants to open her mouth to say something but, no sound was coming out of it.

The middle-aged man releasing pressure from his body, nine spirit ring was floating behind his back.

Yellow, Purplish-yellow, Purple, Black, Black, Black, Black, Black, Redish-Black.

He was a Titled douluo, and the woman in white can see an imaginary beast floating at the sky,

a winged-beast with a body, tail, and back legs like brown-lions, white manes like clouds, and the head and wings of an eagle.

''That was sect master, Martial spirit!'' The woman in white said in astonishment,

''Sandstrom Griffins!''

(It has control over wind and sand) The woman thought while staring at the winged-beast.

Releasing a heavy breath, The middle-aged man then taking back his pressure while his spirit rings, and the imaginary beast disappears into thin air.

''Send someone to check on the han clan!'' The middle-aged man said while glancing at the woman in white.

''Right away, sect master, I will tell the elder now.''

''Mm, Good,''

''And send, someone that at least at soul douluo realm!''

The woman nods her head, and then disappear from the peak.

''No one dares to mess with my sect!''

--------

At the star luo empire, The White Tiger clan stands majestically.

The sun shone brightly at the sky, but the clan still has a gloomy mood on it.

A silhouette of an elder hurriedly walking on the duke mansion, ''This bad,'' The elder murmured while walking toward the duke office.

''This was very bad,'' He murmured with a pale sheet face.

*Knock 2x,*

''Come In!'' The calm voice of a man was coming out from inside the room.

With anxiety in his heart, The elder then enters the room, and he can see a man in a white robe sitting on the chair while calmly reading a scroll.

The man has a handsome face with golden-colored long hair that was tied in a ponytail and a pair of blue eyes,

The man has a stern expression while looking at the elder,

''Why you look seems very anxious?'' The man said while staring at the elder.

''T-This,'' The elder gives the man in a white robe a letter.

''Hmm?'' Taking the letter from the elder hand,

The man can finally see the symbol of the letter, ''Ye clan,''

''Duke!''

''Sigh, I know... ''

Ye clan, a hidden clan, that suddenly appeared on this continent one hundred years ago,

In history, there are no records of this clan or even a trace of this clan,

but what most important this clan is they are is very powerful, and with their unique martial spirit, they could be at the same height as the white tiger clan.

(Or even higher) The Duke white tiger thought while remembering his first meeting with this clan.

--- Flashback ---

When he was still young, he was very adventurous even though only five years, with that five years of adventures times,

he still meets many new people, clans, enemies, and friends.

During his last year of adventure, he was almost dead because his enemy ambush but, a black-haired man with a black spear on his hands appear and help him.

The man has no extraordinary feature, except the fact that he has an ominous and wild aura around his body.

with a black spear in his hand, his aura has become refined but, the lingering beast like aura still got released from his body,

(That black spear was ominous!) that was his first thought while staring at the black spear, at that man's hands, the spear was exuding an aura of a wild beast.

''Hahaha! Are you okay there,'' The man said toward Dai Hao.

''Yeah, I was fine, thanks.'' Dai Hao replied while cupping his hand, averting his gaze toward his the one who ambushed him,

He can see that his enemy was an assassin.

''You was sent by Xi clan, Right,''

Hearing this, The Assassin was chuckling, opening his mouth, ''Heh, You were right!''

''I just heard that you were just punching the young master of Xi clan but,''

''I don't expect that Xi clan will take this very seriously, and they even hire me to kill you!''

Seven spirit rings floating behind the assassin, white, yellow, yellow, purple, purple, purple, and lastly black.

''A spirit sage,'' Dai Hao said coldly while grim expression invading his face.

Even if the ring configuration was not optimal, the assassin was still a spirit sage, and he still has an advantage.

Which, an avatar of martial spirit, after gaining the seventh ring, A spirit master martial spirit will have an avatar that increasing their power to another height.

(I was still at 67 ranks, three-level lower than this assassin, but because he has avatar(True body) of his martial spirit,) Dai Hao thought, even if his white tiger has a berserk skill, it's still not enough to kill this assassin,

(My strength was still lower than this guy, but,) He added in his mind while glancing at the man with a black spear.

The man with the black spear just quiet at these conversations,

But a glint of amusement was clearly showing on his eyes.

''Aaah, Senior, So you were a spirit sage!'' Said The Man with a black spear with an apparent false shock expression on his face.

He then starts stuttering while trying to back off,

The assassin looks at the man with a black spear, lifting his chest with full pride on his heart, Laughing loudly, ''Hahaha, You were right, I was a spirit sage,'' The assassin said in a mocking tone.

*Twitch!*

(This Guy!) Dai Hao thought,

From the gestures of the man with a black spear,

Which right now covering his mouth, and his body is trembling violently,

''This man... '' He murmured,

''Was holding back his laughter,''

A wry smile appeared on Dai Hao face, and he was right,

the man was holding back his laughter.

The assassin chuckling turned into full-blown laughter because he was very proud of his cultivation realm.

''Hahaha, So what If I was a spirit sage! Are you afraid now,'' The assassin said boastfully, and he even forgetting his mission to kill Dai Hao at the moment,

(How unprofessional this assassin was!) The man with a black spear thought while trying hard to hold his laughter.

''I-I was...''

''Not Afraid of you, Stupid!'' The man with a black spear replied while laughter escaping his mouth.

''H-Hahahaha!''

''So what if you were a spirit sage!'' He added, ''You are still very weak on my eyes.''

''...'' The assassin.

''...'' Dai Hao.

''What?'' The man with a black spear tilting his head in confusion.

''B-Bastard, Die!'' The assassin said while a black dagger-like shadow appears in his hand.

Seven spirit rings flashing behind the assassin back, Shadow like a panther rushing toward the man, ''Take this attack, bastard!''

''Violent Shadow Strike!''

''Weak!'' The man with a black spear said, Sidestepping his leg, he was rotating his body while calmly thrusting his spear!

*Clank!*

''What!'' Cried the assassin, his hand was very numb!

''Hmmph, Weak!''

''You cannot even take one thrust of my spear!'' The man said with a disappointed tone!

''I, Ye Qiu, was very disappointed!'' The man said while shaking his head.

''Y-You, Blergh-,'' The assassin madly pointing his finger toward Ye Qiu, and when hearing that this bastard was disappointed with his power, he was spurting blood from his mouth.

''That attack, no just a normal spear-thrust!'' Dai Hao murmured, In just a minuscule of a second,

he was able to see black electricity that travels from this man spear toward the assassin body!

(Even with my beast eyes, It's still hard to see that black electricity!) Dai Hao thought, His eyes already transformed into glowing blue tiger-like eyes.

His pupil was contracted just by seeing that black electricity, ''And his physical strength was enormous.''

''Haha, Hahaha,'' The assassin who right now was kneeling on the ground, Laughing with full of ridicule tone.

(Hmmph, You're not my target, bastard!) The assassin thought while his seventh rings got lit up, his dagger was beaming with black light,

His body then melting into the air and then appears in front of Dai Hao.

(I can't activate my martial spirit on times!) Dai Hao thought, White fur with black stripe growing on his body, a stagnant expression appears on his face.

With a smile on his face, ''You shouldn't lower your guard around me because from the start, you were my target!'' Said the assassin, The assassin then slashing his dagger toward Dai Hao.

''DIE-,''

''Don't let your guard down?''

''Couldn't agree more!'' Ye Qiu said while his silhouette appears behind the assassin.

Six spirit rings floating behind his back, Purple, Purple, Purplish-Black, Black, Black, and lastly Black.

Ye Qiu, Spirit rings then got lit up, His Black Spear dancing around his arm, Staring at the assassin, he then shouts!

''Flowing Thunder Dragon Roar Strike!''

Black electricity traveling around his black spear, Eastern dragon formed by his spear movement,

Stumbling across the skies, The dragon then opens its mouth and strike the assassin!

*ROOAAR!*

''T-This power!''

''A-Aaaarrrrggggghhh!''

*BOOM!*

Ten-Meters of Path of the crater remained formed by the Ye Qiu spear attack, and at the end of the path, we can see the assassin body full of blood lying on the ground!

''I don't wanna die!'' cried the assassin.

''Well, Want to finish it?'' Ye Qiu said to Dai Hao.

Releasing a breath of relief, Dai Hao then cupping his again while saying, ''Many Thanks!''

Dai Hao then walks toward the assassin with a cold expression,

''No! I don't wanna die,''

''I-,''

"Don't go begging for your life,'' Dai Hao said coldly,

*Slash!*

''It just leaves a bad taste in my mouth." He added.

Turning back his body, He can see Ye Qiu smiling at him!

''Let's be a brother!'' Ye Qiu said with a smile on his face.

''Well... ''

-------

(Brother Qiu, Huh) Dai Hao thought absentmindedly.

They go adventuring for one year, but that one year was enough to deepen their brotherhood!

''When I have Daughter, She will be married to your son!'' Ye Qiu said while his silhouette disappears at the end of the horizon!

''Sigh, What a bizarre man!''

(But, Still, A Martial tool spirit that has a soul of the beast in it,) Dai Hao thought,

Every member of Ye clan has a beast soul inside their martial tool, and with that soul of the beast, combined with their secret martial art technique!

They have enough power to overcome enemies that have a higher level of cultivation realm!

Meanwhile, The elder was feeling very weird!

(Why Duke is smiling!) The elder thought.

''Duke!''

''Duke!''

''D-Duke!''

''Ah, Yes, You still here?'' Dai Hao said with a confused tone!

''Cough, Do you have any other news!'' He added while solemnly staring at the elder!

''It's about, Zhu Lingxue!'' The elder said.

(Hmm, Zhu Lingxue?) Dai Hao thought while remembering an unnatural blond woman that was very annoying!

''If I was correct! Zhu Lingxue was the cousin of my wife, right?'' He said while rubbing his chin, ''So what news that makes you very anxious?''

''About that!''

''The Han clan was disappeared!''

''What do you mean by Disappeared?''

''One of star luo guard was hearing a dragon roar from the han clan!''

''And the information from citizen said that the han clan was attacked by an anonymous person last night!''

''At first, the clan was looking normal!''

''But after we dispatch our people that place!''

''What we found was a mirror-like barrier that making outside the barrier normal!''

''While the inside was entirely pure of absolute incredulity!''

''The building already became a pile of ash!''

''We didn't find any bodies at the scenes but, there were traces of battle within the clan!''

''Likely all the clan was slaughtered and then got burned into ash!''

''The attacker was proficient using Lightning-fire element attacks and sealing techniques!''

''Hmm, the identities of the attacker?'' Dai Hao said, interrupting the explanation from the elder!

Solemnly shaking his head, the elder then says, ''We only know that the attacker has two people!''

''One is a boy around seven or nine by the voice and the build of his body,''

''While, another attacker was a woman with a slender yet voluptuous body!''

''Two of them was using a white robe and animal mask, dragon and fox!''

Nodding his head, Dai Hao then frowning deeply, while looking at the sky, ''Sigh, At first,''

''Our clan is attacked by a mysterious lightning strike!'' Dai Hao said with deep confusion!

''Now, our subsidiary clan also got attacked,''

(Almost all the elder were injured, and the duchess was also almost died by the lightning,)

(If she was not duchess of the white tiger,) The elder thought, If the titled douluo that has healing ability did not arrive on time,

the duchess would surely die that day.

Even now, the duchess is still recovering by using clan ten-thousand years of medicines.

''Sigh, have you found the news about Huo Yun'er's death!'' Dai Hao said,

The elder shook his head helplessly, ''I have no information at all other than that she has an infectious disease which makes him stay in the forest cottage behind the mansion,''

''I have also checked the cottage in the forest, and only found some kitchen tools and a bed!''

(Note: Yuhao had taken all the items in the cottage into his inventory!)

''Sigh, if you don't have any news, then you can go now!'' Dai Hao said while turning his back, looking at the blue skies!

The elder nodding his head and walked out the door, leaving him alone in his room!

After the elders left~~,

''God Damn it!'' Dai Hao said while punching the wall in front of him.

*BANG!*

''What a man are you, Dai Hao, what a man!'' He said bitterly toward himself!

''You promised her!''

''But what she got was living in a shabby cottage!''

A tear of grief was flowing from his blue eyes!

It's not hard to find that something was weird in her living condition!

She was his childhood friend, his lover, his wife yet- but, what she got, was living on the shabby cottage!

''infectious disease? Don't make me laugh!''

If Huo Yun'er, whose entire life had only contracted in the clan with an infectious disease, then someone must have brought the disease from outside!

Or someone is trying to detach her from the clan, which must be his first wife!

But he can't just Interrogate her straight off the bat now because she now recovers from the lightning attack, and she also has an ancestry bond, which makes it very difficult for him to conclude this problem!

(Note: He doesn't even know that he has a child(Yuhao) with Huo Yun'er)

all the elder and servant on the mansion was closing their mouth,

He has been trying to gather the information, and he even tried to talk to his concubine that has good relations with Huo Yun'er!

But, He was shocked that the concubine was dying because of an unknown poison, and she at least needs one or three years to recuperate!

''Sigh, What I have to do now, Yun'er!'' He faintly said.

Realeasing a heavy breath.

''Sigh, This is brother Ye letter!'' Looking at the letter that is still not opened by him, ''Let's check it first!'' Dai Hao murmured while taking a paper cutter on his desk to open the letter.

*Crack!*

''Brother Ye, You even protect envelopes with a layer of spirit beast skins!'' Dai Hao murmured with a wry smile!

The paper cutter got fractured by the slight pressure he added to cut the spirit beast skins, transforming his claw to cut the letters, he was finally able to cut the envelopes!

''Just how cautious you are!!!'' a paper, a gold-colored paper appears in his hand, and It made him very angry.

''It's blank! The paper was completely blank!''

Dai Hao can even imagine laughing Ye Qiu on the background!

''Only Ye clan member that can see this letter, so... ''

''Hmm, If was not wrong, I still have Ye clan badge from Brother Qiu!''

Searching something from his spatial ring, he then took a gold plated badge that has a symbol of various kinds of weapons and beasts.

''Mm, With this!'' Grabbing the badge, he then can see golden light that traveling from the badge toward the golden colored paper.

The words began to appear in the letter, and after a few seconds, he finally can see a well-written letter.

''Sorry, Brother Hao, if you've opened this message,

it means you've been through some trials, right, pfft ... ''

''Some trials, my ass!'' Said Dai Hao with a hint of annoyance.

The clouds began to cover the sunlight, and with a shocked expression on his face!

He then continues to read the letters,

''T-This...''
