Chapter 13: An Eye For An Eye

Shocking!

No one expected that Lei He, who shouted for Yi Qianmo to kneel, ended up kneeling himself after being struck down by a sword.

The twist happened so quickly that the people present couldn’t react. It was only when they saw Lei He gritting his teeth and shaking all over that they realized it was real.

A master born with innate talent was actually brought down to his knees by a mortal with a single sword strike; the stone slab he knelt on had already cracked, and his knee was shattered.

This shows how terrifying the power of that sword was.

At that moment, Yi Qianmo looked down at him from high above, his pupils completely transformed into a silver color, like a deity descended from the heavens.

“How is this possible? The Great Yi Sword Technique is so powerful that it can allow a mortal to challenge an innate master!”

“It is said that this sword technique comes close to that of the immortals.

After all, they are immortals; even a strong fighter is like an ant compared to them!”

“Yi Qianmo is only an acquired fighter. If he reaches the innate stage, who in all of Green Cloud City, besides his wife, who has entered the realm of the immortals, could possibly stop him?”

Whether it was the guards of the Lei family or those of the Yi family, they all stared in astonishment at this moment.

Especially Third Elder Yi Dahe, who initially thought the situation was settled, did not expect that his nephew would be this terrifying.

If the battle had not yet ended and he still held a glimmer of hope in his heart, he would have already fainted.

The three innate fighters who were battling also stopped. Lei Yuntian’s heart skipped a beat, and a sense of foreboding filled him.

Only Yi Danian remained alert, but he was deeply shocked inside. As the clan leader, he had also practiced the Great Yi Sword Technique but had never displayed power close to that of the immortals.

In the Yi family, this sword technique is only slightly more powerful than ordinary martial arts.

At the time of Yi Qianmo’s integration into the Yu family, it was not just out of necessity; it was also to protect him. His belief was that he wanted Yi Qianmo to survive.

As for revenge, he had never thought about it; he only hoped that the bloodline of the Yi family could continue.

But he did not expect that Yi Qianmo would bring him such a surprise; even a person as determined as he was felt a slight tremor in his heart.

Lei He’s kneecap was already shattered; in that moment, Yi Qianmo seemed more than human to him—he felt as if Yi Qianmo were a divine being.

“Do you still remember thirteen years ago, how you killed my father in front of the door of the Yi family?”

Yi Qianmo held the sword and pinned Lei He down, but in his mind, he replayed the scene from thirteen years ago: “Back then, that shameless old dog Lei Yuntian promised a one-on-one match but suddenly attacked and severely injured my father, which allowed you, the treacherous villain, to succeed; you made my father kneel before you just like this!”

“Hahaha…”

Lei He suddenly burst into laughter.”Of course I remember! Your father was very tough; after receiving a blow from my dad and getting hit in the face by me, I told him to kneel, but he refused. In the end, after shattering all the bones in his body, he finally kneeled!”

“But what does that change? You are still only human; the Great Yi Sword Technique is indeed powerful, but you can’t change anything. At most, you can only unleash this one strike!”

While speaking, Lei He used his inner strength; even with his kneecap shattered, he managed to tremble and stand up from the ground.

“Hehe.”

Yi Qianmo chuckled coldly and said, “Unfortunately, you underestimated the power of the Great Yi Sword Technique. I have endured for thirteen years in the Yu family, and I returned for this moment!”

The sword energy around him surged, and with a strong push to the ground, Lei He, who had just stood up, fell to his knees again. The sound of him hitting the ground shocked everyone present into silence.

“Little beast!!!”

Lei He’s face twisted in pain.

“Years ago, you crushed my father’s bones and made me watch him die. Today, I will use the same method!”

Yi Qianmo said, “I will make Lei Yuntian, that old dog, watch you die in pain, so that this old dog can feel my helplessness from that time!”

As soon as he finished speaking, Lei Yuntian moved swiftly and charged at Yi Qianmo.

“Clang.”

Yi Danian swung his sword to block Lei Yuntian and said, “Old man, do you think I will let what happened years ago happen again?”

Tears filled Yi Danian’s eyes. Yi Qianmo remembered the events from years past, and he could never forget how every day for the past thirteen years, he saw his oldest son’s death in his mind.

That feeling of helplessness was the source of his strength to overcome challenges.

When he heard Yi Qianmo’s words, it touched him deeply because he knew that his grandson was not only doing this for himself but also for him.

“Ah…”

A terrible scream rang out as Yi Qianmo raised his hand, and with a sword, he severed Lei He’s five fingers. In the moment his sword fell, he chopped off Lei He’s arm that held the sword.

“Yi Qianmo, you little beast! If you dare to touch my son, I will curse the Yi family to suffer a terrible fate!” Seeing the miserable Lei He in the distance, Lei Yuntian’s eyes turned red.

At that moment, shock filled him, matching his anger, because he had never imagined he would be defeated today and also lose his son, a gifted one.

In his eyes, the Yi family were just a bunch of worthless people.

He wanted to save Lei He, but Yi Danian held him and the guest tightly, showing no care for the cost.

“Old dog, did you see that?”

Yi Qianmo glanced at the angry Lei Yuntian and said, “This is how I felt back then; do you feel it now?”

As soon as he finished speaking, Yi Qianmo raised his hand and struck down with his sword, cutting off Lei He’s other arm.

In pain, Lei He now had a shattered kneecap and lost both arms; even if he was a skilled fighter, he could not fight back.

He looked at Yi Qianmo, his eyes full of fear.

“So you do know how to be afraid!”

Yi Qianmo suddenly put away his sword, looking at the bleeding man with no hint of pity in his eyes.

Thirteen years ago, when he was just five, the scene of his father being killed by Lei He was deeply etched in his memory. He had never forgotten it in those thirteen years and even dreamed of his father’s death.

“You… you can’t kill me. Besides my Lei family, the Huang family… and other families are all watching from the outside… Even if you kill me… your Yi family will still be wiped out!”

Under the threat of death, Lei He finally gave in. He hoped Yi Qianmo would have some hesitation. “I can apologize to you; I swear my Lei family will no longer be enemies with your Yi family, as long as you… let me live!”

Yi Qianmo slowly walked over, showing no sympathy in his eyes.

Lei He lay on the ground; without arms, he could only wriggle like a snake, but soon Yi Qianmo stood in front of him.

“If I had known it would come to this, why did I act in the first place?”

Yi Qianmo lifted him up. “Kneel down; you will die the same way my father did!”

He positioned Lei He, kneeling in front of him, and looked at Lei Yuntian, saying, “Old dog, how does this feel?”

“You little beast, how dare you!!!!” Lei Yuntian roared.

“Bang!” Yi Qianmo raised his hand and struck Lei He’s face hard; a fierce wave of sword energy surged into Lei He’s body, and all that could be heard was a cracking sound.

Lei He spat out a mouthful of blood and collapsed on the ground, like a worm without bones. His eyes were wide open, filled with fear.

“Why should I be afraid?” Yi Qianmo held his sword and slowly turned around, walking towards the two who were fighting.

“Puff!”

Lei Yuntian spat out a mouthful of blood, his gaze fixated on Yi Qianmo, and at that moment, the cloaked figure said, “Leader, this boy has great potential. We must not force the matter today, as it may give others an opportunity. Let us retreat for now!”

Thinking of Yi Danian at that moment and looking at the approaching Yi Qianmo, Lei Yuntian ultimately did not let hatred cloud his judgment.

“Run!”

Lei Yuntian and the cloaked figure joined forces to drive back Yi Danian and quickly retreated with their people. “You little beast, just wait! I will make you wish you were never born!”

“I am waiting.”

Watching them walk away, Yi Qianmo did not chase after them, and Yi Danian did not show any intention of stopping them.

However, when Lei Yuntian left, he did not take his son’s body, showing how desperate he was.
