Chapter 120: Chapter 120: Seven Days Later, Swords Cut Down the Yu Family

Translator: 549690339

No one dared to speak.

Xue An had already used his supreme cultivation to tell everyone that opposing him meant only one thing—a path to death!

However, at this moment, Xue An did not move from his spot; instead, he stood still, with a very strange expression on his face.

While everyone was in a state of shock and disbelief, they saw the small mountain, seemingly unable to bear the burden any longer, emit a series of creaking noises before it collapsed thunderously.

Xue An stood in mid-air, his face full of intense murderous intent.

“Seven days from now, I will move against Lingnan and behead the Yu Family with my sword!”

This statement made everyone first freeze, then all looked at Xue An with faces full of shock.

Was he joking?

Or did he think that by killing Yu Yang, he could do something to the Yu Family?

One must know that the Yu Family had that Sword Immortal ancestor!

Everyone was full of doubts and couldn’t fathom why Xue An would do such a thing!

But only Xue An knew what had just happened.

He had slain Yu Yang with a single stroke of his sword, and Yu Yang’s incomplete soul had drifted out.

Xue An hadn’t cared at the time, casually grasping the soul in his hand, intending to extract some memories to take a look.

However, to his surprise, when he delved into Yu Yang’s memories, he suddenly saw an indistinct silhouette deep within Yu Yang’s memories.

Although it was blurry, Xue An still recognized at a glance who it was!

An Yan!

That was An Yan’s silhouette from behind!

But how could she appear in Yu Yang’s memories?

Xue An immediately began a frantic search through Yu Yang’s memories, but to no avail—the remaining memories held no clues whatsoever.

But no matter what, this had given Xue An an extremely important clue.

That was An Yan’s disappearance was very likely related to the Yu Family!

Thinking of this, Xue An couldn’t help but feel a surge of killing intent.

That was why he declared that he would behead the Yu Family in seven days.

At this moment, Qin Yu and the others looked at each other, their faces filled with horror; they also did not understand why Xue An was suddenly so furious.

Gradually, the crowd dispersed, and Xue An walked down with an icy expression on his face.

Qin Yu wanted to say something but hesitated.

Because Xue An’s current expression was too terrifying.

Even Qin Yu and the others had never seen Xue An so angry.

But after Xue An took a deep breath, the murderous aura gradually dissipated, and he regained his composure.

“Mr… Mr. Xue…” Qin Yu said timidly.

Although she knew Xue An was usually good-tempered, his face full of murderous intent just now was truly frightening, and she still felt somewhat terrified.

Xue An smiled slightly, “What’s the matter?”

“You… Are you alright?” she asked.

“I’m fine!” he said.

“Then why do you want to wipe out the Yu Family?” Qin Yu asked bravely.

This was not just about an ordinary bout; this was a declaration of war against a martial arts family!

Qin Yu could even imagine the turmoil that would ensue once the news spread.

Xue An said indifferently, “Nothing particular, I just find them displeasing to the eye!”

Qin Yu suddenly felt that this sentence was somewhat familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere before.

At that moment, Old Xie’s family hurried over.

Xue Lan and Song Yi also joined An Yan’s side.

Xie Jingjing felt as if she had a thousand words in her heart, but when she saw An Yan, she couldn’t say anything.

Especially when An Yan turned to her with a smile and said, “Jingjing is here too!”

Xie Jingjing felt a sourness in her nose and an urge to cry.

At this time, Song Yi asked with a serious expression, “Mr. Xue, although I don’t know why you suddenly declared war on the Yu Family, what you’re doing is… rather rash!”

This was also the sentiment of many others.

But An Yan simply smiled lightly, “This… I have my own sense of measure!”

Song Yi wanted to say something, but when he saw the calm and resolute expression on An Yan’s face, he shut his mouth.

Meanwhile, Old Xie patted his chest and said, “Xiao Anzi, I’ve never respected anyone before, but you’re the first! Not only did you defeat that arrogant youngster, but you also dared to attack their lair head-on. Just for that, Uncle Xie admires you, man! I’ll go with you when the time comes. You should know that Uncle Xie’s cleaver isn’t just for show!”

As he spoke, Old Xie even flaunted his cleaver with a boastful look on his face.

But before Old Xie could finish his antics, Auntie Pang slapped him on the head.

“Enough, with those little tricks of yours, you’re also boasting in front of Xiao Anzi? You can’t even beat me!”

Old Xie’s face turned red from the slap, and he awkwardly said, “I mean, Jingjing’s mom, in front of so many people, couldn’t you save me some face?”

“Pah, do you even have face left?” Auntie Pang scolded.

An Yan couldn’t help but burst into silent laughter.

Indeed, this Uncle Xie, afraid of his wife, would never change this aspect in his life!

At that moment, Qin Yu approached and said, “Mr. Xue, Grandpa and I have already prepared the banquet. Let’s all join it! It’s to celebrate your success!”

An Yan nodded, “Alright then!”

As everyone headed back to Beijiang to prepare for the evening’s banquet,

the news of An Yan slaying Yu Yang at the Qingfeng River bank and declaring he would challenge Lingnan in seven days exploded through the Martial Arts World like a bomb.

The martial arts forum was going completely insane at this moment.

Countless posts kept refreshing.

“My god, the Yu Family actually lost! They were defeated by someone previously unheard of!”

“Yeah, this is the first time in forty years the Yu Family has handed down a Sword Challenge Token, and yet they failed!”

“I told you Mr. Xue wouldn’t lose. You all mocked me back then, now see how formidable he is!”

“But has he gone mad? To actually declare war on the Yu Family!”

“Yes! I also think Mr. Xue has gone mad, or he’s too arrogant. This isn’t a simple duel, he’s opposing a top Martial Arts Family like the Yu Family!”

“Tsk tsk! The Martial Arts World has been stagnant like still water for decades, too calm, but the emergence of An Yan has made everything so much more exciting.”

“However, I still think the chances of his success are extremely slim, because my second uncle’s neighbor’s aunt’s son-in-law mentioned that the Lingnan Sword Immortal seems to be about to come out of seclusion!”

“Is what upstairs said true?”

“Same question!”

Countless inquiries instantly overwhelmed the poster.

It wasn’t until half a day later that the person replied.

“I just made a phone call to confirm. This relative of mine, albeit indirectly related, has been a servant in the Yu Family for many years, and he said that the Yu Family has been busily renovating the courtyard recently, as if they are preparing for some joyous occasion!”

“Hiss! Now it’s really going to be lively! Forty years ago, the Sword Immortal took the world by surprise with a single strike. I never expected that upon his release, he would encounter such a rising talent!”

“Still, I think that An Yan is courting death! No matter how powerful he is, can he be more powerful than the Lingnan Sword Immortal? Besides, since he killed Yu Yang, the Sword Challenge walker, the Yu Family will not let him off!”
