Chapter 23: Now You Are the Weak
"The day after tomorrow, five acquired stage masters!"
"Innate… those are innate experts! Two of them… The Yi family actually has two innate fighters hidden!"
A group of Yi family strong ones surrounded them, a total of seven, five of whom were acquired stage masters.
If it was just a matter of numbers, it wouldn’t change the current situation.
However, the two leaders did not hide their presence at all; they were two innate experts!
"Isn’t that Yi Tianyang? He… he’s just a first-class master, how could he have become an innate expert?"
"And the other one, that… that is Yi Tianyu. He barely reached first-class; how did he become an innate master too?"
"These guards from the Yi family… they actually have five postnatal guards."
Upon seeing the newcomers, the people from the Huang family and the Lei family felt more nervous than surprised.
Before coming here, they had received news that the Yi family had one innate expert and one who practiced the Great Yi Sword Technique, comparable to an innate master, named Yi Qianmo.
Now, suddenly two innate experts and five postnatal guards appeared; one can imagine how shocked they felt at this moment.
"Impossible, how could this be!"
Huang Lixing looked at them, and if he hadn’t known the Yi Tianyu brothers, they would have doubted whether they were seeing things.
Not to mention Huang Lixing, the Lei family members were even more shocked, especially Lei Yuntian.
Just the day before yesterday, Lei Yuntian had personally carried Yi Tianyang into the Yi family, and at that time, Yi Tianyang looked like a dead dog.
But it has only been a little over a day, how did he suddenly become a natural-born expert?
"I don’t believe it, you must have used some trick to disguise yourselves as natural-born masters!"
Just then, Huang Lixing suddenly acted; he flashed and appeared in front of Yi Tianyang, throwing a punch at him.
"Bang!"
Yi Tianyang did not back down and swung his fist to meet Huang Lixing’s. With a muffled sound, their fists collided, and almost instantly, both of them stepped back.
But at that moment, Yi Tianyu suddenly struck, landing a punch on Huang Lixing’s waist. Taken by surprise, Huang Lixing was sent flying.
Seeing that the two were about to team up against him, Huang Xingchu immediately rushed to Huang Lixing’s side to protect his son.
But in his eyes, there was even more shock, because he suspected that these two brothers were pretending, just like his son Huang Lixing, but the clash of punches just now, and Yi Tianyu’s burst of true energy, were definitely innate without a doubt.
In other words, the Yi family really has four innate fighters, although one of them is still acquired, but that one has killed an innate fighter!
"They just broke through!"
Huang Lixing stood up and coughed up blood, "If they hadn’t just broken through, Yi Tianyu’s punch would have been enough to seriously injure me!"
Just now, when he attacked Yi Tianyang, he did not expect the opponent to really be innate, and Yi Tianyu definitely had the chance to severely injure him, or even kill him.
After all, he did not pay any attention to Yi Tianyu when he attacked.
But Yi Tianyu did not do it, not because he didn’t want to, but because his combat experience was lacking, and his use of true energy was far inferior to Yi Tianyang’s.
Therefore, Huang Lixing immediately concluded that the two had just broken through.
"Yu family, cursed Yu family!"
Lei Yuntian shouted, "That old Yu Changqing is really clever!"
As soon as everyone heard this, they instantly understood; in Green Cloud City, only the Yu family could suddenly bring out two innate experts from the Yi family.
Because only the Yu family had contact with the immortals, and only the immortals could make a first-class master become an innate expert overnight.
The members of the Huang family understood as well.
She held her brother’s hand, looking at his profile, and her cheeks turned red because she knew all of this was her brother’s doing.
Her anxious heart finally settled down at this moment.
"What does it matter to have two more innate experts?"
Huang Xingchu suddenly said, "They just broke through; I don’t believe he is as strong as Yi Danian. You and I can team up to defeat Yi Danian, and then we can turn the situation around!"
Huang Xingchu knew that they were in a difficult position now.
The Yi family has three innate experts and one who is comparable to them. If they leave, they will surely face the fiercest revenge from the Yi family.
Being separated means being attacked one by one, so even if he sees this as the Yu family’s plan, he can only take this risk.
Lei Yuntian quickly calmed down and said, "That’s right. As long as we kill Yi Danian, we can capture this little beast, and the remaining two are not a threat."
In terms of both the number and quality of strong fighters, they still hold an absolute advantage. This is the confidence that allows the Lei family and Huang family to still be willing to fight.
"Really?"
Yi Danian sneered and immediately channeled his energy, releasing his aura. "Then I want to see how you two old fellows will join forces to defeat me!"
"Late innate stage!"
When Yi Danian’s energy burst forth, a massive sense of pressure swept over them. Except for Lei Yuntian and Huang Xingchu, even the old man in black, Mr. Hu, felt the pressure.
Not to mention, the two factions of the Huang family and Lei family felt it as well.
"It’s impossible! How could you break through to the late innate stage overnight?"
Lei Yuntian stepped back two paces, looking dazed.
If before they had at least a sixty percent chance of winning, now, feeling Yi Danian’s presence, they had less than fifty percent.
"Why not?"
Yi Qianmo released his sister’s hand, stepped forward, and focused his energy. "From today, the Lei family and Huang family are expelled from Green Cloud City. If you don’t want to die, put down your weapons and submit to my Yi family; otherwise… there will be no mercy!"
The words "no mercy" were uttered.
Everyone present was overwhelmed by the aura emanating from Yi Qianmo, making their bodies tremble.
"Late innate stage!!!!"
Lei Yuntian’s eyes widened.
Mr. Hu, who was next to him, took two steps back, his eyes no longer showing any fighting spirit. He still vividly remembered what had happened the day before.
Even with Yi Danian reaching the late innate stage, he still believed that the most terrifying thing about the Yi family was not Yi Danian, but the eighteen-year-old boy right in front of him.
It had never happened in Green Cloud City for someone to defeat an innate master with postnatal skills, but Yi Qianmo did it!
Now he had broken through to the innate stage, and in a one-on-one fight, they had no chance of winning.
The guards from the Lei family and the Huang family were all trembling. Although the Yi family did not have numerical superiority, they had two late innate stage fighters.
There was also one terrifying boy who had killed an innate master with postnatal skills.
"Crash!"
A postnatal guard from the Lei family dropped his weapon and said, "I… this has nothing to do with me. I do not wish to be enemies with the Yi family."
"I also do not wish to…"
"Me too, me too…"
In an instant, nearly half of the guards dropped their weapons. They were all guards hired by the two noble families, but they were not the direct descendants of those families.
The direct descendants wanted to drop their weapons too, but they knew it was impossible; the Yi family and the two noble families had deep-rooted enmity.
"Young friend…"
Huang Xingchu forced a smile that looked awkward and said, "My Huang family is willing to back down, what do you think…?"
"Your son’s words are true; the weak are prey to the strong, that is the truth of the world!"
Yi Qianmo replied with a smile, "But right now, you are the weak!"
