Chapter 56 - Return

Near the Floating Valley city, the entire area was shrouded in the shadow of the Floating Valley, and the surrounding area was teeming with activity as many people witnessed a once-in-a-millennium event.

On the stage, the elders of various sects had their gaze fixed on the floating valley.

"What do you think?" The Elder of the Heavenly Sword sect turned to face the middle-aged man standing beside him.

The middle-aged man's eyes were fixed on the valley, as he shook his head, "Don't know. I don't think anybody could go to the inner circle."

The Heavenly Sword Sect Elder nodded. "Even though that young boy is extremely powerful. I doubt he'll be able to solve the mystery of this valley. Your Beast Taming Sect, on the other hand, would be the true victor. The valley is swarming with Demonic Beasts."

"I told you," the Beast Taming Valley elder smirked.

But suddenly, someone scoffed, "Hmph,"

Everyone turned to look at the old man, who was staring at the floating valley.

The Elder of the Profound Blossom Valley smiled. "How could anyone compare their disciples to that young boy? I wish he could pick some special girls to be his cultivation partners."

The Eternal Palace Elder's expression changed, but before he could respond, a bright flash caught his attention.

His eyes squinted as he turned his gaze to the bright light. "What happened?"

But then the entire mountain range was illuminated with bright lights, and the entire floating valley rumbled.

Fear gripped everyone as they stared at the Floating Valley.

Suddenly, the bright light filled the whole mountains, and the next moment, the floating valley disappeared.

Despite the fact that the mountains were extremely crowded. There was a total silence.

The Elders of the sect were perplexed, their gaze fixed on the clear sky.

"What happened? There is still time." The Elder of the Heavenly Sword Sect mumbled as his gaze shifted to the disciples, who had puzzled expressions on their faces.

"Did someone discover the secret?" An elder from the Beast Taming Sect turned to face the Elder of Eternal Palace. Who had a glum expression on his face?

"NOOOOOOOOOO" Suddenly, a woman's shout broke the atmosphere.

Everyone turned to face a middle-aged woman, tears streaming down her cheeks as she hugged a young man.

A middle-aged man stood beside her, his gaze fixed on the young man, who had a stupid expression on his face and drool dripping from the corner of his mouth.

His body shook, his fists clenched, and his gaze shifted to a young man in the distance.

That young man wore a luxurious black robe, his silvery-white hair drooped down to his waist, and his face was hidden behind a black half mask. His blue eyes were fixed on the family of three, and he smiled.

As everyone's attention was drawn to the foolish young man, the mountain fell silent.

"Isn't he the young master of the Lin family?" Someone recognized the young man. This voice broke the silence.

"What happened to him?" Another voice was heard.

Suddenly, the entire atmosphere was filled with murmurs, and everyone's gaze was fixed on Young Master Lin.

"What happened?" A resounding shout echoed throughout the mountain as the Elder of the Divine Flame Sect vanished from his spot and appeared in front of the middle-aged man. With his gaze fixed on the young man, he crouched down and placed his hand on Young Master Lin's head.

As their gazes shifted to the elder of the Divine Flame Sect, hope rose in the hearts of both Middle-aged man and woman.

For a moment, white light glowed in his hand before dimming.

As his body quivered slightly, he let out a sigh. He got to his feet and shook his head.

"He is totally wasted."

As soon as the middle-aged woman heard his words, she burst into tears as he tightly hugged the young man.

The middle-aged man's gaze returned to that distant figure, who was still smiling.

"It's you. You did this to him." As his aura surged, the middle-aged man yelled. He pointed his quivering finger at the Young Man in Black, his face flushed red.

"So What?" Andy smirked.

The Elder of the Divine Flame Sect turned around to see Andy from a distance. His eyes bulged, and he vanished and reappeared at the Stage.

His booming voice rang out across the mountains.

"I expel Lin Shou from the Divine Flame Mountains; his actions are completely irrelevant to us."

As soon as his words echoed the mountains, there was complete silence for a moment, before the crowd erupted in a roar.

The Divine Flame Sect's unexpected announcement flabbergasted everyone, including the elder of the other sects.

Meanwhile, Andy's smile grew wider as he strolled toward the middle-aged man.

In the mountains, there was complete silence once more as everyone's attention was drawn to Andy.

The crowd made the way for him, as he stood before the Middle-aged man after a while.

As he put down his hand, fingers folded into a fist, the middle-aged man struggled to control his rage. His bloodshot eyes were fixed on Andy, who stood before him with a smile on his face.

"Did you like it? Do you like it that your other son has turned into a fool?"

Andy smirked, his gaze briefly shifting to Young Master Lin before returning to the Middle-aged man in front of him.

The smile disappeared from his face. "As I said before if you do not want to live in this world, come to me. As a patriarch, I expected you to be wise. You would teach your children not to mess with the wrong people. But who would have guessed that you bribed so many people to kill me? What a joke."

"Tch Tch. I'm not sure how, but many people in the world are extremely foolish. You should learn from the Elder of the Divine Flame Sect. See, he is so intelligent that when he discovered that your son had caused trouble with me. He immediately expelled him."

On the other side, the face of Elder of Divine Flame Sect flushed red when he heard Andy's words.

"Y... You. I will kill you." The patriarch of the Lin Family trembled as Terrible Aura surged out of his body, a short sword appearing in his hand as he slashed towards Andy.

"You Dare," As the Elder of Eternal Palace vanished from his place, a loud shout echoed across the mountains.

Meanwhile, Andy kept a calm expression although his entire body was engulfed in a terrible aura.

A red tint appeared in his eyes, and time seemed to stop around him.

He pulled out a dagger and slashed the neck of the man in front of him before taking a step back.

Time returned to normal. The Elder of Eternal Place appeared beside Andy, but before he could do anything. Blood spurted out from the neck of the Patriarch as his head fell down to the ground.

Everyone in the mountains was in a state of shock. Nobody knows what happened. Just a second before, the patriarch of Lin's family was about to kill Andy, but he was beheaded the next moment.

As his head lay on the ground, his eyes were filled with disbelief.

Andy carefully cleaned the dagger with a white cloth before storing it. His gaze shifted to Young Master Lin as words escaped from his mouth.

"I want every member of the Lin family to vanish from the face of the earth.. Every Extra head will have an extra reward."
