His question aimed to ascertain if Yu Yuanzhen had any involvement in the matter.
Without any hesitation this time, Yu Xiaofeng said, "My father is still in seclusion and unaware of this matter. This decision was mine alone, so it has nothing to do with my second uncle and the rest. If you have any issues, you can direct them all at me."
"You can let Tianheng go now, can't you?"
His voice was resolute and decisive.
Qin Xiao did not detect any trace of bewilderment in his eyes.
"Qin Xiao, are you satisfied with this answer? Let me go quickly. Hurting you was also my father's idea, I'm actually a victim as well," Yu Tianheng said, turning to Qin Xiao in haste.
"Very good, an excellent answer. I am quite satisfied," Qin Xiao nodded in approval.
Yu Tianheng's face lit up with surprise, "So you're going to let me go?"
However.
Qin Xiao did not respond to Yu Tianheng's words, as one of his palms had already descended upon the top of Yu Tianheng's head.
"What... what are you doing...."
Fear filled Yu Tianheng's heart, his voice growing shrill from excessive anxiety.
"Stop it!"
"Spare Tianheng!"
Yu Xiaofeng's pupils sharply constricted, his face a picture of startled panic.
But it was already too late.
A twist of Qin Xiao's wrist was followed by a crisp snap that drowned out all other sounds and reverberated throughout the area.
Silence.
A silence as profound as death.
Then, before countless onlookers, Yu Tianheng collapsed lifelessly to the ground, motionless.
"He's dead!"
"Young Master Tianheng is dead!"
"Has he gone mad? Daring to kill Young Master Tianheng at the entrance of the Blue Electric Overlord Dragon Clan!"
"..."
After a brief silence, a surge of exclamations erupted.
They couldn't believe that someone would go on a killing spree right at the entrance to their clan.
And the victim was one of the Blue Electric Overlord Dragon Clan's own.
"What are you waiting for? Attack and take down this boy, dead or alive!"
As the middle-aged steward's voice fell, he was the first to spring into action.
He completed the Martial Soul Possession in an instant, and his seven Soul Rings began to shimmer incessantly.
His fingers extended like eagle's claws, lunging for Qin Xiao's throat. The fierce momentum of his strike could have torn metal in two in an instant.
It must be said that, as someone trusted by Yu Xiaofeng, the steward's strength truly commanded respect.
But then again, that was only against ordinary folks — what did it mean to Qin Xiao?
Qin Xiao didn't even bother using a soul skill. With just a simple, straightforward punched, he lashed out.
"Hmph, still so arrogant in the face of my attack?"
"Then I shall teach you a lesson," the middle-aged steward remarked upon seeing this.
Instantly, his third Soul Ring lit up.
Immediately, purple lightning crackled around his hand.
With the reinforcement of a soul skill, his attack became even more ferocious!
Boom!
The next moment, his claw met Qin Xiao's iron fist, producing an intense sound.
Under the gaze of all present, the standoff lasted but a brief instant.
Crack.
With the sound of snapping, the middle-aged steward's hand was broken by Qin Xiao's punch.
Crack.
This time, a series of crackling sounds followed as Qin Xiao's fist smashed into the middle-aged steward's chest, caving in a broad area of it, with who knows how many ribs shattered.
Then, like a sandbag that had burst open, he fell to the ground in front of Qin Xiao, even cracking the cobblestone pavement with web-like fractures.
Those from the Blue Electric Overlord Dragon Clan who had rushed at Qin Xiao were left aghast, standing as if petrified.
It was too shocking.
A seasoned Soul Sage from the Blue Electric Overlord Dragon Clan, one-punched by this youth?
So, what really was the extent of his cultivation level?
It was incredibly frightening, a chill creeping up from the soles of the onlookers' feet to the crowns of their heads.
"Back off, all of you!"
"Let me handle this!"
However, just then, an angry shout rang out.
Turning to look, they saw Yu Xiaofeng pushing through the crowd.
He had completed his Martial Soul Possession, half-man, half-dragon, resembling a humanoid Tyrannosaurus.
Surrounded by blue arcs of electricity as if bathing in thunder, his body orbited by eight slowly undulating Soul Rings, his aura was even more terrifyingly potent.
Without a doubt, he was a Soul Douluo Level powerhouse.
