Chapter 960 Ruthless Dao Void
After daring to show up after being defeated, I’ll go and deal with Dao Kong again.
Method Yu raised his right hand, activating the Void Ring.
“Whoosh!”
Seconds later, he and the Void Beast on his shoulder disappeared together.
…
Covered in wounds, Ma Sanhong staggered back to the Ma family residence.
Seeing the main gate wide open, with people constantly carrying stretchers in and out, Ma Sanhong froze in place, his heart sinking to the bottom.
Those busy Ma family members didn’t even notice their family head standing at the front gate.
Some people glanced at Ma Sanhong, but seeing his tattered clothes and the foul smell he emitted, they thought he was a beggar coming to ask for alms and paid him no attention.
Ma Sanhong stood dumbfounded for a moment, then came to his senses after seeing several injured people on stretchers.
His memory remained at the moment when he was forcibly taken away.
Who took him away and what happened afterward, he had already forgotten.
Ma Sanhong grabbed someone hurrying past and asked, “What happened?”
“Don’t bother me! Go beg elsewhere!” This Ma family member, already in a bad mood, irritably shook his hand free.
“Family… Family Head!?”
At this moment, another person recognized Ma Sanhong’s face.
This shout turned the heads of all the Ma family members around.
“Tell me… what happened!” Ma Sanhong stared at the guard in front of him and asked in a deep voice.
“About an hour ago… the person who kidnapped you last night broke into the Ma family again. The Second Elder led the elites to try to stop him from leaving, but…” The guard’s face turned pale, his voice trembling as he recalled the tragic scene inside the Ma family compound.
“What happened!?” Ma Sanhong asked with bloodshot eyes.
“Nearly a hundred elites… all defeated by that person. Sixty percent are seriously injured, and thirty percent died on the spot…” the guard said with a trembling voice.
Hearing this news, Ma Sanhong felt blood rushing to his head, his vision darkening.
He didn’t even hear the second half of what the guard said.
He only knew that… the Ma family had fallen.
“Puff…”
Ma Sanhong spat out a mouthful of fresh blood toward the sky and collapsed.
“Family Head…”
The surrounding guards, their faces drained of color, quickly gathered around him.
Inside the Ma family compound, a group of young people stood together with pale faces, watching helplessly as the family elites were carried out one by one.
When Method Yu came to the Ma family, these young people, as the future hope of the family, had not been summoned to fight.
Now, seeing the tragic state of these family elites, they felt nothing but extreme fear.
Among these young people, the outstanding Ma Tianxiang currently ranked sixteenth on the Heaven List.
But he… had just advanced to the Divine Transformation stage.
Seek revenge against the intruder?
Forget about their strength, they didn’t even know the intruder’s true identity!
“Brother, what should we do now?” Ma Xiaohong asked tearfully.
Ma Tianxiang clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, saying, “We need to find the Family Head first, and then…”
“Young Master, the Family Head has returned!” At this moment, a guard ran over and announced loudly.
The young people’s expressions changed.
Ma Tianxiang looked at the guard and asked, “Where is the Family Head? I need to see him.”
“The Family Head… after hearing about what happened to the family, he spat blood and fainted. He’s currently being treated,” the guard said in a low voice.
“Damn it…” Ma Tianxiang gritted his teeth, his eyes reddening.
…
Late at night, in the northern part of East Sun Island.
There was a village here with wooden buildings that looked quite old.
In the central area of the village stood a statue.
This statue depicted a warrior wearing a helmet and armor, but instead of the common samurai sword, he held a staff.
As it was late, lights were on in every household in the village, with few people walking outside.
If outsiders came, they would certainly think this was just a remote small village.
But locals knew very well… this ordinary-looking village was actually home to one of the oldest bloodlines on East Sun Island.
The Yagi family!
At this moment, two figures appeared at the village entrance.
One of them was Yagi Ken.
Beside him stood an expressionless man in black clothes, his eyes emitting a faint red light.
Yagi Ken was now pale and covered in sweat.
“Isn’t this Priest Yagi Ken? You’re back?”
At this moment, a male family member suddenly approached from ahead.
“I was just about to go to the city to buy some things. Does the Seventh Priest need me to help purchase anything?” the family member asked with a smile as he approached.
Yagi Ken’s face was ashen, his lips moved slightly, but no sound came out.
At this point, the family member noticed the man in black standing behind Yagi Ken.
“Priest, who is this…” the family member asked curiously.
“Slap!”
Before he could finish, the man in black suddenly struck.
The family member’s head was grabbed, and a black energy emanated from the palm, instantly enveloping his entire body!
“Swish…”
A chilling sound rang out.
This family member… simply vanished!
Seeing this, Yagi Ken’s eyes widened, and he could no longer hold back. He circulated his true energy and shouted, “Danger! Everyone be alert!”
This voice was extremely loud, echoing throughout the entire village.
Doors immediately opened in every household.
Members of the Yagi family rushed out.
Several figures descended directly from the sky, landing in front of the man in black and Yagi Ken.
Standing around were three white-haired elders.
They saw the man in black behind Yagi Ken and their expressions became solemn.
“Release Priest Yagi Ken immediately!” one of the elders shouted.
This voice transformed into a thunderclap, directed straight at the man in black.
The man in black didn’t move at all, merely extending his right hand and lightly patting forward.
The power contained in the voice was directly dispersed in mid-air.
“Indeed, all pseudo-dragon bloodlines…” The man in black opened his mouth, revealing a cold smile.
“What… what do you want to do?” Yagi Ken asked, trembling all over.
“I’m really grateful to you for bringing me here and helping me summon everyone…” the man in black said, raising his right hand and grabbing toward Yagi Ken.
“Ah…”
Yagi Ken’s body convulsed as he let out a miserable scream.
Then, the scream, along with the person, vanished without a trace.
Seeing this, those family members who were preparing to rescue Yagi Ken froze in shock.
The three elders also stepped back, their expressions horrified.
The man in black licked each finger of his right hand, raised his eyes to look at the three elders ahead, and his pupils blazed with red light.
“Before finding the divine dragon, having you pseudo-dragon bloodlines as appetizers is not bad.”
Before his words faded, the ground beneath the man in black suddenly shattered as he flashed toward the front!
…
The next morning, North Capital, Hidden Forest Manor.
Method Yu and Huaixu sat at the tea table, drinking hot tea.
“Brother Method, where do you think Dao Kong might be?” Huaixu asked.
“I don’t know, and there’s no need to look for him,” Method Yu raised his eyebrows and said, “Anyway, he will eventually show up on his own.”
Huaixu nodded, then frowned and shook his head, saying, “That Dao Kong would use such methods… he’s too ruthless.”
Method Yu made no comment.
Although he had never directly encountered Dao Kong, from what he had done… it was indeed evident that he was an extremely ambitious person who would stop at nothing to achieve his goals.
Such ruthless individuals were rare in history.
But from what Method Yu knew, there had been several similar ruthless figures in the cultivation world who eventually achieved the great Dao and ascended to immortality.
Among them, the most notorious was the Southern Mysterious Demon Lord from over four thousand years ago.
It was said that to master a certain technique, this Southern Mysterious Demon Lord killed all his blood relatives, beautifully calling it “cutting off emotional roots” to achieve perfect mental state… And just before his ascension, to ensure he would safely pass through the lightning tribulation, he appropriated his sect’s treasured artifact for his own use. When discovered, he wiped out the entire sect, claiming he didn’t want to leave behind a bad reputation…
Besides exterminating his clan and sect, the Southern Mysterious Demon Lord had many other extremely vile deeds.
His actions made the entire cultivation world despise him.
Even two thousand years after his ascension, the cultivation world still regarded him with shame, viewing him as an example of cultivation gone wrong, resulting in the loss of humanity.
The former Dao Tian had used this person as a warning, cautioning all disciples within the Heavenly Dao Gate to never resort to any means for the sake of cultivation progress.
Otherwise, he would personally clean house.
