Chapter 318: Zhao Family: A Strange Family

The sky gradually darkened.

In the dark night, the stars dotted the sky with light.

Although it was already close to midnight, the outside was still brightly lit. Although it was much colder compared to the daytime, one could still occasionally see a few pedestrians passing by.

On the road, the vendors had already gradually closed their stalls. Only after midnight did the number of people on the road finally decrease.

At the same time, Ye Xiao also opened the door to his room and directly walked out of the inn. After looking around, he headed directly to the center of the city, which was near the northeast.

The Zhao Family of Red Moon City was one of the eight great families of Red Moon City, so the area they occupied was naturally bustling with activity.

When Ye Xiao arrived at the Zhao Family residence, he discovered that it was still brightly lit.

Fortunately, their cultivation levels were not high, and were unable to detect the concealed Ye Xiao.

With his cultivation, as long as Ye Xiao didn't want anyone to discover him, no one could sense his existence.

To the bystanders, the Zhao Family which was heavily guarded was simply a fortress. It was impossible for people to sneak in.

However, for Ye Xiao, accomplishing something like invading the Zaho Family was very simple.

After circling around the Zhao Family's residence, Ye Xiao jumped over a wall with no people and stepped onto the roof. He then quickly jumped into the shade of a tree in the manor.

Not long after Ye Xiao entered, a group of four Chaos Spirit Saint Realm guards passed where Ye Xiao had previously entered, but they did not find any trace of Ye Xiao at all.

Silently staying in the grass, Ye Xiao waited for all the guards to leave before he sneaked into the inner courtyard of the Zhao Family quickly.

He did not intend to start the massacre with guards.

However, it doesn't mean he intends to let the guards go.

No!

In the name of the Zhao Family, the guards had also committed unforgivable crimes.

Ye Xiao just didn't know why Red Moon Empress had not taken action against anyone from the Zhao Family.

Along the way, Ye Xiao met with three groups of patrolling guards. Before long, he finally approached the residence of a core member of the Zhao Family.

Even though it was already late in the night, the people inside had not fallen asleep. This could be seen from the flicker of light and low noises coming from inside the room.

After observing for a while, Ye Xiao was sure that there was only one person cultivating some sort of combat skill inside.

Ye Xiao flashed in front of the door and pushed it open. His figure flashed and appeared in front of the person who was cultivating in the room.

That person only had a Great Saint Realm cultivation base, even lower than patrolling guards, and with Ye Xiao deliberately concealing his presence, he was unable to sense when Ye Xiao barged inside his room. When he discovered Ye Xiao, Ye Xiao was already in front of him, not giving him any chance to retaliate at all, as he grabbed onto his neck.

"Don't speak, otherwise I will kill you immediately. From now on, I'll ask you a question and you can answer it, otherwise, die!" A violent killing intent surged from Ye Xiao's body as he coldly looked at the man in front of him.

After saying all that, seeing the man nod his head with all his might, Ye Xiao's right hand loosened a little, allowing the man to breathe. If he dared to play any tricks, with just a slight force, he could end that man's life.

"You, who exactly are you? Why did it appear here?"

The suffocating feeling disappeared, and the man immediately asked this question, but seeing the cold glint in Ye Xiao's eyes, he immediately shut his mouth, afraid that Ye Xiao would kill him if he was unhappy.

"Tell me, how many powerful people are there in the Zhao Family? What are their cultivation levels?" Ye Xiao stared at the man's frightened face and asked indifferently.

That man also understood that he had fallen into a perilous situation. If he did anything that unpleased Ye Xiao, then he would be killed immediately.

"There are at least fifty Chaos Overlord Realm warriors, dozens of Nine Vast Origin Sea Realm warriors, and three Origin Fusion Sovereign Realm warriors. Amongst them, our Family Head's cultivation is the highest. He has already cultivated to the peak of Origin Fustion Sovereign Realm."

"Peak of Origin Fusion Sovereign Realm?" Ye Xiao frowned slightly and nodded his head. Killing these people is nothing for Ye Xiao, however, he still wondered why no one ever took action against the Zhao Family.

Letting aside the Red Moon Empress and the Royal Family, the Zhao Family must have made several powerful enemies.

The Zhao Family could be said to be a powerful force, but there is no lack of such forces in the Red Moon Empire. Why did no one go against them?

Seeing Ye Xiao like that, that man thought that Ye Xiao was afraid, and immediately said: "That's right, Family Head is a very powerful warrior at the peak of Origin Fusion Sovereign Realm. He will become a Mystic Sovereign very soon. I advise you to quickly leave, I can treat today's matter as if it never happened!"

"Nooo..."

Ye Xiao looked at the man as if he was looking at a clown. Shaking his head, his right hand instantly exerted force, causing the other party to be unable to continue speaking.

That man's face was deathly pale. Fortunately, Ye Xiao didn't have any plans to kill him at the moment, so after teaching him a lesson, he let go of his hand.

This time, that man did not dare to speak any more nonsense and looked at Ye Xiao with fear.

After a long while, Ye Xiao opened his mouth and asked again: "Where are the Chaos Overlord Saint Realm and above warriors usually residing in the Zhao Family? What other areas are the direct bloodline family members of the Zhao Family in?" noVe-lB-In

"You want to ask this..." That man's eyes suddenly widened, but after seeing Ye Xiao's murderous gaze, he could only anxiously explain the location where each one of them was located.

"Got it, you can go now!" Ye Xiao said indifferently.

Before a smile could rise on that man's face, Ye Xiao grabbed his neck and crushed it.

That man's eyes widened as he looked at Ye Xiao with a face filled with disbelief. He never expected that Ye Xiao would directly kill him without hesitation.

After getting rid of the other party, Ye Xiao looked at his corpse and blandly said: "I can sense the aura of a Heavenly Demon from you. You must have either made a contract with a Heavenly Demon or come in contact with one. Whatever option might be true, it is a fact that you have a connection with Heavenly Demons. How can I not kill you?"

Ye Xiao took a deep breath and muttered, "Looks like this Zhao Family is not simple. If Heavenly Demons are included, then they could become a reason why the Red Moon Empress has yet to take any action against the Zhao Family!"

After all, if Red Moon Empress is aware of the existence of Heavenly Demons and the Zhao Family's connection with them, then she should be very wary of them. She could not carelessly go against them.

Ye Xiao opened the door and went out. It was time to hunt others.

However, before that, for the first time, Ye Xiao enveloped the entire Zhao Family with his Divine Sense.

"WORMS!"

In that instant, Ye Xiao was shocked to discover that all the upper echelons of the Zhao Family were Worms. In fact, the entire core members of the Zhao Family were Worms.

As for a few people who were humans, they have the aura of a Heavenly Demon hidden inside their bodies.

"What is going on?"

Ye Xiao frowned deeply. He had never seen this kind of situation before.

In his eyes, if the Zhao Family is the family of Worms, then there should not be humans.

However, the Zhao Family was mixed with humans and Worms.

"Something must be extremely wrong!"

Ye Xiao muttered and decided to get rid of all of them as soon as possible. There is no point in playing the game of cat and mouse.

Since this matter involves the Worms and Heavenly Demons, exterminating them quickly will be the right thing to do.

Just as Ye Xiao was about to burn the entire Zhao Family with his Universe Essence Flame, he heard a conversation between a few core family members of the Zhao Family.

His Divine Sense had already covered the entire Zhao Family, so hearing their conversation was not a surprise.

Ye Xiao's attention was attracted to their conversation because one of them called the other person 'Zhao Yan'.

Clearly, one of these people was an enemy Ye Xiao wanted to kill really badly.
