In a Pinch!
Yang Clan was closest to Vacant Sky City. Yang Tian vaguely remembered the fight there. He and the black bird headed straight to Myriad Auction Company’s branch there.
Perched on Yang Tian’s shoulder, the bird remarked, “Humanity has changed so much over time.”
Yang Tian scratched his head with a smile. “It seems Wang Clan now runs Vacant Sky City.”
The surname Wang came from the primordial era, not Central State’s Wang Clan. They had many factions. It was complex.
When they were close to the company, Yang Tian felt something was odd. There wasn’t a soul in sight unlike before. He furrowed his eyebrows, wondering where the guards were. When he went inside, people would point and whisper. He soon heard someone yell, “Don’t go thinking our Meng Clan will let you Wangs push us around!”
Over a dozen adepts launched themselves toward Yang Tian. He discharged light to fight back. When he saw a face he recognised, he asked, “Meng Hao, what happened?”
Meng Hao froze. Once he processed Yang Tian’s voice, he exclaimed, “Aren’t you dead?”
“It sounds as though you want to be dead!” Yang Tian was confused. He glared back.
Meng Hao touched Yang Tian. “You’re alive…”
Disturbed with the touching, Yang Tian pushed Meng Hao away. “Get lost… What happened? Why’d you all jump me as soon as I stepped inside?”
“I thought it was someone from Wang Clan,” answered Meng Hao, teeth clenched. “They’ve come here three times already!”
“You don’t need to be afraid of them given your clan’s power, do you?”
“You’re not aware?” Meng Hao dragged Yang Tian to a room and exclaimed, “After Dao Deity Mountain closed, a peculiar and strong bunch of people appeared out of nowhere and began harassing our branches at big cities.”
“Peculiar people…?” Yang Tian showed hostility. “Is your sister all right?”
Meng Tian griped, “You know how worried she’s been for you the entire year you’ve been missing?”
“I was gone for a year?!” Yang Tian thought only a few months had passed.
Meng Hao’s mouth twitched. “Do you not know anything…?”
“Yun’er is missing…” Yang Tian shuddered, not knowing so much transpired while he cultivated in seclusion. He couldn’t forgive himself. He was sure Yun’er was suffering.
Meng Hao griped, “Hmph, and here my sister as worrying for you every day.”
Yang Tian forced himself to calm down. “Where is my brother and the rest?”
“At Thundercloud Sect…” Meng Hao pursed his lips. “Pay Thundercloud Sect a visit. They took the biggest blow. The devil race is involved with this.”
Yang Tian crushed a corner of the table with his vice-like grip. It was obvious they persistently chased down Yun’er for her divine body. Meng Hao suddenly added, “A female Rakshasa emerged from Thundercloud Sect recently. According to our intelligence, she’s Xing Yun’er, who went missing for a year.”
Yang Tian was so fired up he prepared to race to Thundercloud Sect before anything undesirable could happen.
Someone haughty outside declared, “Is Meng Clan dead or something? Come out here and welcome your guests!”
“They’re here.” Meng Hao was angry. It was the fourth harassment in a single day.
Yang Tian: “Let’s go see.”
Yang Tian was so fierce that Meng Hao shuddered.
Meng Clan was angry. There were two Almighty adepts among the enemy ranks. The leader was a youth who lecherously ogled Meng Clan’s girls. “Hehe, nice…”
Tears welled up in the girls’ eyes. How Meng Clan had fallen… Suddenly, a golden light smashed into the youth. He grunted. His blood rushed up into his mouth. Teeth fell out. He shivered. Meng Clan’s elders were amazed. The assailant was so fast they didn’t even see how it happened. Meng Clan’s girls covered their mouths with their hands; they were pleasantly surprised. They couldn’t figure out who hit the youth.
Wang Clan’s adepts: “How dare you!”
The youth spat blood as he commanded, “Kill them all!”
Meng Hao was startled for he never expected Yang Tian to attack them, especially overwhelm two Almighty adepts.
Yang Tian noticed Wang Clan’s members possessed some Devil Qi in them.
Wang Clan’s two Almighty adepts shook the company grounds. They blasted divine lights.
