Son-in-law Heaven Emperor Xiao Yi

"Jia Yisheng, come out and meet your death!"

The cold voice, like a thunderous roar from the heavens, shook the sky and resounded above the entire Jia Mansion. It even penetrated the multiple barriers and entered the dungeons down below.

Mrs. Jia's hand trembled, and the branding iron clattered to the ground, bouncing before settling on the top of her foot.

Hiss!

The top of the shoe was instantly burned through, and the scorching hot branding iron cooked the top of her foot in a mere moment.

Ow...

Mrs. Jia subconsciously withdrew her foot, but the branding iron tore off the flesh from the top of her foot as it stuck, leaving her with a blood-drenched wound as a hysterical scream escaped from her mouth.

"Madam, are you alright?" Jia Yisheng, who had been watching coldly until then, changed his expression and rushed over immediately.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

He supported Mrs. Jia with his arm, his face full of concern.

Slap!

Mrs. Jia slapped Jia Yisheng across the face, her expression ferocious as she bellowed in anger, "Don't you see the state of my foot? Do you think I could be alright?"

Seated high in the halls of power, the formidable second-ranked official Jia Yisheng was actually a henpecked husband.

Facing Mrs. Jia's furious roar, Jia Yisheng instinctively shrank his neck and helped her sit down beside him, "Don't panic, Madam. I'll apply some medicine to you right now..."

"What medicine? Go out and see which bastard dares to make trouble in my Jia Mansion and is responsible for hurting me like this... I want him torn to pieces!" Mrs. Jia said bitterly.

Jia Yisheng quickly nodded, "I-I'll go at once!"

......

Jia Mansion.

This estate was originally a gift from Jiang Tianchen to the Jia Family. The large vermillion gate stood five meters tall, three meters wide, and was extremely thick.

But now...

The gate was in disarray, utterly destroyed and in tatters.

From the gate leading directly to the main hall of Jia Mansion, the path was littered with the bodies of the guards, each with an almost imperceptible bloodstain on their necks.

Able to take their lives with a single sword strike!

No one was spared!

In front of the main hall...

The manager of the Jia Family, Jia Fugui, was ghostly pale as he kept retreating under the protection of a group of guards. The eyes of all the guards looking towards the young man with the red longsword in his hand, inching closer with each step, were filled with terror.

"Where is Jia Yisheng?" Xiao Yi asked indifferently.

Gulp!

Jia Fugui instinctively swallowed, glaring with rage, "Audacious thief! You dare slaughter the Jia Family's guards in broad daylight. Do you know where you are?"

"Silence!"

With his sword in the air, Xiao Yi, exhibiting the strength of the Ninth Layer of the Golden Core Realm, faced the guards in the Divine Skills Realm as if slicing through vegetables.

Where the sword's edge passed, heads rolled.

"Who dares cause trouble in my Jia Mansion?"

Jia Yisheng had just come out of the dungeon when he saw the corpses everywhere and Jia Fugui, the manager of the Jia Family, kneeling on the ground, continuously kowtowing to Xiao Yi. He immediately spoke up to scold.

No sooner had his words fallen.

A streak of blood flashed before his eyes, and Jia Fugui's head flew up, landing right in front of him.

Xiao Yi smirked, looked up at Jia Yisheng, and said, "You've finally shown up!"

"Xiao, Xiao Yi? Shit..."

Jia Yisheng froze for a moment, and upon recognizing Xiao Yi's face, he didn't hesitate to turn around and run.

"Since you're here, don't even think about leaving!"

Xiao Yi reached out with his right hand, and an invisible force seized Jia Yisheng, pulling him fiercely and smashing him heavily onto the ground.

The entire Jia Mansion roared as if an earthquake had struck.

The ground was covered in dust, and within a human-shaped crater, Jia Yisheng lay there face up, bleeding from all orifices, looking up at Xiao Yi in despair, "Xiao, Young Master Xiao, don't be impulsive... There must be some misunderstanding between us..."

Xiao Yi, not saying a word, pressed on."

Jia Yisheng scrambled backward in panic, his face filled with fear, "Young Master Xiao, you can't kill me. I am an imperial officer. If you kill me, the Emperor will never let you go, and you will have no place in Tianqing Kingdom..."

"Are you, threatening me?" Xiao Yi narrowed his eyes and said.

"I..."

Jia Yisheng swallowed nervously. Jia Sichun and Jia Sidao both had died at Xiao Yi's hand, and he wished he could flay Xiao Yi alive a thousand times over.

Experience new stories with empire

But...

When facing Xiao Yi, he didn't even have the courage to talk tough, and he quickly shook his head in a servile manner, "No, no dare, how could I threaten you? To you, I am nothing but an ant you could squash effortlessly. Murdering me to become the target of public criticism, that's not worth it!"

Who could have imagined that such a high-ranking official could also have such humble moments?

At this moment, Jia Yisheng was full of regret.

His son had died, but he could have another; why did he have to provoke this formidable foe?

Xiao Yi said indifferently, "Where are Yan Mingli and the others?"

"In the dungeon, I'll take you there right away..." Jia Yisheng said hastily.

Xiao Yi nodded.

Jia Yisheng scurried ahead like a dog, crawling and groveling as he led the way.

They made their way to the dungeon.

Mrs. Jia was limping towards Lin Bingxin, holding the freshly reheated branding iron, about to stamp Lin Bingxin's cheek.

"Stop!"

Jia Yisheng was terrified to the core; if she stamped down, he'd have no way out!

Mrs. Jia was startled and turned around, only to be struck by a fierce slap from Jia Yisheng, sending her flying into the wall. With a thud, the branding iron fell into the collar of her garment.

Hiss hiss...

A scent of charred flesh emanated from within her bosom, accompanied by her hysterical screams, "Ahh... help, save me..."

Jia Yisheng ignored Mrs. Jia, turning to Xiao Yi with a sycophantic look, "Xiao... Xiao, you can see... they both are here!"

Mrs. Jia, enduring the intense pain, roared, "Jia Yisheng, have you grown too bold? Dare you lay hands on your own wife?"

"Shut up!"

Jia Yisheng ground his teeth, wishing he could gag her mouth with a cloth.

After all, the dreaded Xiao Yi was standing right by his side!

If he angered Xiao Yi, he and his wife would be done for!

Xiao Yi squinted his eyes as he looked at the unconscious Elder Yan and Lin Bingxin, the vicious wounds all over their bodies darkening his expression, "Release them!"

"I... I'll do it now!" Jia Yisheng hurried forward.

Yet Mrs. Jia blocked his path, menacingly yelling, "I'd like to see who dares! These two bastards, together with that dog bastard Xiao Yi, killed my son. I'd like to see who dares release them?"

"Shut up, if you want to die don't drag me into it..." Jia Yisheng glared at her furiously, frantically signaling her, "Don't you see Xiao is here? Get out of my way!"

"Xiao? Is he Xiao Yi?"

Mrs. Jia snapped back to reality, glowering at Xiao Yi with a ferocious face, screaming venomously, "Good for you, Jia Yisheng. Your son's killer stands before you, and you're as cowardly as a shrinking turtle? Won't you kill him to avenge your son?"

"Avenge? I'll avenge your granddad..."

Jia Yisheng exploded in anger, previously it was Mrs. Jia who had urged him to join forces with Flying Eagle and hire Xue Yilou to take action, and now that the Jia Family was nearly annihilated, Mrs. Jia was not without blame, "You stupid woman, if you don't shut your mouth, I'll kill you myself!"

"Kill me? Come on, you impotent fool, you have no guts to avenge your son, and now you help his murderer against your own wife? If you lack the guts to take revenge for your son, I'll do it myself!" As Mrs. Jia spoke, she grabbed a red-hot iron from the furnace, lunging at Lin Bingxin.

"Seeking death!"

Xiao Yi's cold hum was followed by a swift strike that split Mrs. Jia in half, his icy gaze then turning to the dispirited Jia Yisheng, "You go die as well!"

"No..."

Jia Yisheng watched in despair as the sword's blade pierced his body.

Bang!

Having consecutively killed Jia Yisheng and Mrs. Jia, the entire Jia Family was extinguished!

Xiao Yi sheathed his Fire Qilin Sword and rescued Elder Yan and Lin Bingxin from the rack, sighing in relief after checking on them, "Thankfully, it's just excessive blood loss, and there's no danger to their lives!"

He gave them pills to stabilize their injuries.

At this moment...

Outside Jia Mansion, a sea of people had gathered.

They kept their distance, looking at the Jia Mansion strewn with bodies, "This... this is outrageous!"

"Who could it be? Who would dare to massacre a high-ranking official's entire family in broad daylight?"

"Look, look... someone's coming..."

Within that grand gate, Xiao Yi walked out powerfully, carrying the two with him...
