Seeing his sincere attitude, the cultivator nodded: "That Xiao Chen is a spear cultivator, his spear skills are superb, and he is said to be extremely powerful."
"As for Ling Xue, she is a stunning beauty who can topple kingdoms, and she also possesses the innate Ice Soul Saint Body, with an icy aura that makes her easy to identify."
"The two are Daoist partners, and this kidnapping was to save Ling Xue."
"It really is Senior Brother and Sister-in-law!"
Stone's heart sank as he confirmed the two men's identities.
The thought that Ling Xue had been captured and used as a gift made his face turn ugly instantly, and he pressed, "Then why was Ling Xue captured by the Chen family?"
"Isn't it all to curry favor with Mo Zezong!"
The cultivator curled his lip. "The Chen family is quite a large family in Moze City. They're trying to curry favor with Moze Sect's Holy Son, Mo Shuo."
"We specifically sought out Ling Xue, intending to offer her to Mo Shuo as a concubine, but unexpectedly, she was abducted by Xiao Chen on the way."
"The Chen family!"
"boom!"
Before he finished speaking, a terrifying killing intent erupted from the stone's body, and the temperature in the entire restaurant instantly dropped to freezing point.
Tables and chairs shattered under the impact of murderous intent, wine and dishes spilled all over the ground, and roof tiles fell off in a flurry. In the blink of an eye, the bustling restaurant was reduced to dust.
The monk who had spoken was so frightened that he spilled wine on himself, trembling all over, and looked at the stone with a face full of fear: "S-Senior..."
Stone's eyes were icy as he stared intently at him: "Where is the Chen family?"
"In...in the west of Moze City, that tallest mansion is the Chen family residence!" the cultivator replied in a trembling voice.
Upon hearing this, Shi Tou casually tossed down a bag of spirit crystals and said to Xiong An in a deep voice, "Let's go! To the Chen family!"
As soon as they finished speaking, the two figures flashed and disappeared from the spot, leaving behind only panicked cultivators and a scene of devastation.
…………
Chaos reigned within the Chen family mansion in the western part of Moze City.
Chen Yue, the head of the Chen family, stood in the center of the hall, his brows furrowed and his expression as solemn as iron.
"There's no other way. Quickly, have Lin'er pack her valuables and leave through the secret passage!"
"No matter what, we must leave a lineage for the Chen family!" His voice was hoarse, tinged with despair.
Ling Xue was kidnapped, Xiao Chen escaped, and Mo Zezong's Holy Son Mo Shuo was furious. As the instigator of the human sacrifice, the Chen family would inevitably become the target of Mo Zezong's wrath.
The only thing we can do now is to preserve the last bloodline of our family.
Just then, Chen Yue suddenly looked up, a hint of fear flashing in his eyes. A terrifying pressure, like dark clouds covering the sky, instantly enveloped the entire Chen family mansion.
"May I ask which fellow Daoist has graced us with their presence? Please show yourself so we can have a chat!" He suppressed his unease and cupped his hands in greeting as he called out to the sky.
"boom!"
Two figures descended from the sky like meteors, landing heavily on the bluestone slabs of the Chen family compound, causing the ground to crack in several spiderweb-like patterns.
As the smoke cleared, two tall figures were revealed.
It was the menacing Stone and Xiong An.
Stone was dressed in coarse black cloth, with a burly build and muscles as angular as granite.
He was surrounded by a violent aura, his eyes were as cold as knives, and he swept his gaze over the Chen family members present as if they were a group of dead men.
Xiong An stood to the side with his hands behind his back, a faint smile on his face, yet he exuded a sense of intimidation, clearly giving the opportunity to make a move to Shi Tou.
Chen Yue looked at the two men, his heart skipped a beat, and a strong sense of unease welled up inside him: "They're up to no good!"
He quickly stepped forward, cupped his hands, and said, "Your presence graces my humble abode. I wonder where my Chen family has offended you?"
"If there is any misunderstanding, let's sit down and talk it over. My Chen family is willing to offer generous gifts as an apology!"
"Shall we sit down and discuss this further?"
A disdainful sneer curled at the corner of Shi Tou's mouth as his gaze swept over the Chen family disciples and elders present like a sharp blade. "Your Chen family, you dare to say you're worthy?"
Before he finished speaking, Shi Tou's aura suddenly surged, and his muscles bulged instantly.
His already imposing physique appeared even more robust, and a violent power surged within him, producing a muffled sound like thunder.
He disliked idle chatter; when dealing with enemies, only fists were the most direct language!
"roar!"
Stone let out a low roar, his figure transforming into a black lightning bolt as he charged straight toward the nearest Chen family elder.
The elder's cultivation had reached the peak of the Creation Realm, making him a notable figure in the Moze Star Region. Upon seeing this, he was immediately shocked.
His spiritual energy circulated wildly within his body, and his hands quickly formed hand seals, instantly creating a light blue spiritual energy shield that protected him like a tortoise shell.
"Bang!"
The stone's fist, accompanied by a sonic boom that tore through the air, slammed heavily onto the spiritual energy shield.
The violent power erupted like a volcano, instantly cracking the pale blue protective shield and causing it to creak under the strain.
The next second it shattered with a roar, turning into countless points of spiritual energy that dissipated.
"Impossible!" The elder's face was filled with shock and disbelief.
His fully activated protective shield, which was strong enough to withstand a full-force attack from a peak-level cultivator, crumbled under a single punch from the opponent!
Before he could react, Stone's fist slammed into his head like a cannonball.
"boom!"
With a dull thud, blood mixed with brain matter exploded instantly, splattering everywhere like an overturned palette.
The elder, who was at the peak of the Creation Realm, didn't even have time to utter a scream before his head was smashed to pieces like a watermelon.
The body fell limply to the ground, twitched twice, and then went still.
The entire Chen family compound fell into a deathly silence in an instant.
The disciples and elders of the Chen family stared in disbelief at the scene, their faces drained of color, and their bodies trembled uncontrollably.
One punch!
With just one punch, he killed an elder at the peak of the Creation Realm!
Just how terrifying is the strength of this person?
"Attack together! Slay this fiend with all your might!"
Chen Yue, the head of the Chen family, roared as his eyes widened in fury.
The seven elders at the peak of the Creation Realm simultaneously unleashed their auras, and a surge of spiritual energy swept out like a tsunami.
The clouds above the Chen family's residence were shaken and churned violently, the intense fluctuations of spiritual energy even alarming the cultivators outside the city.
They all turned to look in the direction of the Chen family, filled with surprise and doubt.
"Hmph, an ant trying to shake a tree!"
Stone snorted coldly, his eyes full of disdain.
The bluestone slab beneath his feet suddenly shattered, creating a deep pit in an instant, and his figure vanished from the spot like a ghost.
"careful!"
The elder at the forefront, wielding a sword, issued a stern warning, and his flying sword instantly erupted with dazzling spiritual light.
It transformed into a streak of light, piercing straight towards the stone's face with a fierce sword strike, accompanied by a sharp whistling sound that seemed to tear through the air.
Faced with the incoming flying sword, Shi Tou neither dodged nor avoided it. His right fist struck first, carrying the force of thunder, and smashed into the tip of the sword!
"clang--!"
The ear-piercing clang of metal against metal resounded through the sky. The flying sword, forged from refined steel and spiritual materials, was actually bent and broken in the middle by his punch!
The shattered sword fragments flew backward, embedding themselves deeply into the elder's chest like a hidden weapon.
