Chapter 158 158-Revenge Is Best Served Cold.
"I can't leave any loose ends, can I?"
Xiao spoke with a cold smile, the people in the room were scared shitless, as an 11-year-old boy held the lives of several powerful people in the Yun family,
"But first, why don't I call everyone important here"
Saying so Xiao's body flashed as he along with everyone in the room disappeared, appearing at the huge hall used to hold family meetings,
"Let's make this a party"
Xiao said clapping his hands and soon several other powerful people either in seclusion or practice, or having sex, were called up to him, their bodies freeze as they were brought in front of Xiao.
Xiao turned towards his mother who was looking at him with focused eyes to which he winked his eyes at her,
"Mother, come here"
Saying so he held her hand as he pulled his mother towards the center of the room at the forefront where the patriarch used to sit, pointing at the seat he looked at his mother who looked back at him, the two gazed at each other for a moment after which Yun Lan sighed and sat up high, in front of her the most powerful people of the Yun family suspended in the air unable to move.
The real shock was for the old foodies who were in seclusion, one moment they were getting stronger, and the next here they were, suspended above the ground by a child clearly of the Yun family looking down at them, they clearly had no idea what the hell was going on but their experiences mind knew that they were fucked!
"Um...I guess some are outside the family, oh well..."
Xiao muttered with a calm voice, his head turning towards a certain direction as he spoke,
"You can come out"
Just as he finished speaking, two figures became clear for all to see, it was Valencia and her mother Raena, both of them looking at Xiao, seeing this a smile took his face while his mind flashed with vigilance against the two, he hadn't forgotten about this sworn sister of his mother but for now, he would be dealing with one problem at a time,
"Care to join the show?"
Xiao asked, making the mother-daughter duo silent for a moment, in the end, Raena shrugged her shoulder and spoke,
"Sure, why not, it's been some time since I saw an enjoyable slaughter"
'She's not normal as always'
Xiao wasn't surprised, after all, you will gain some unnatural quirks when you spend your life as she had,
"What are you doing?"
Valencia asked as she and her mother walked forward, Raena moving to hug Yun Lan and congratulating her on having Xiao back safe and sound, Yun Lan had a smile as she accepted the hug,
"I am just doing something that I should have done some time ago"
Xiao said looking at all those people suspended in front of him, awaiting their sentence, Xiao had already set up a powerful deterrence around the whole estate, in fact, every living thing within the whole of the Yun family is now held in their place unable to move, nothing was escaping Xiao's eyes as he kept the control on them all,
"You seemed to have sounded a great deal of growth"
Valencia said with a touch of concern, which she tried to mask but Xiao picked it up very easily, this was another anomaly that he was avoiding, he needed answers and he will be finding them step by step,
"Well I had a great time, why were you worried about me?"
Xiao teased,
"No, I just don't want my ally to die so early"
Valencia calmly rebutted Xiao, who just smiled at her defensive words,
"Where is that fiance of yours?"
Valencia asked,
"Right where she belongs, you should be careful a bit, she might give you a good fight if you guys meet again"
Xiao said, which earned her ire, as Valencia's eyes narrowed,
"We will see about that"
She said, not speaking too much into the matter but Xiao knew that she must know about where he was, with her master Adria leading her, she should know that Li Lun by now had awakened to the gifts that were granted to her,
"What's the plan here?"
Valencia asked trying to steer the topic away, the fact that Xiao was mentioning another girl irked her soo much that for a few seconds an impulse to kill took over her mind,
'Calm down, don't go overboard'
Valencia desperately told herself, trying to keep her semblance of control,
'She's hiding her jealousy and killing intent'
Xiao easily figured out Valencia's current mentality, he had a keen eye for it, something that was required for him to manipulate war between several sects so that he could make use of the sect for his killings,
'They really messed with my mind for me to even miss such obvious signs, then there's also...'
Xiao's eyes turned towards Xuanyin who was standing quietly beside him but with their connection, he could easily understand the feelings passing through his sister even when she tried her best to keep her feelings hidden from him,
'One problem at a time, one problem at a time'
"The plan is simple, to leave"
Xiao said turning towards the most powerful and authoritative one in the group gathered here, an old man that seemed to be one step into his grave, yet he exuded the most power from them all, Valencia now standing at his side spoke.
"He seems to almost complete all his tasks to evolve, just one more seems to be left"
"No wonder he has the aura of a climber"
Xiao responded to Valencia's words, not everyone would be able to complete the requirements for them to climb to the next heaven, everyone could cultivate but completing your requirements to evolve isn't for everyone. Xiao willed and the said person was pulled to the forefront, floating in front of Xiao, giving some control Xiao allowed the person to speak,
"What do you want?"
A gruff voice leaked out of the old man, his eye calm at the situation in front of him,
"Nothing much just wanted to say that I will be leaving this family with the ones I really care about and that if you try to take revenge I don't mind erasing this family"
After he finished speaking Xiao sealed the old man's mouth again sending him back with the squad of people looking at Xiao with fear, seeing so he nodded his head, turning to his mother with a smile he spoke,
"Who all did you want to have revenge on, mother?"
His words made Yun Lan silent as she looked around the people in the room, most of them stronger than her yet they lay here, ready to be slaughtered at a moment's notice from her, a certain feeling filled Yun Lan's heart it was a feeling she was getting a lot lately, she was feeling very proud, not of the situation but of her son.
Seeing him be so powerful she could feel her heart being gratified, she didn't care how he did it or from where it all came, what she cared about is the well-being of her son, Yun Lan never considered herself a person who would become a good mother figure, nor did she think she could love someone too much but clearly she was wrong, she loved her children more than anything and she never regretted being a mother.
Now when her son stood in front of her giving her the whole world. A cold smile lit up Yun Lan's face as she turned to look at the people around, her mind flashing with all the anger that had been hidden in her heart, everything in her mind being played over and soon her hand automatically moved to a few of them,
"Make them pay"
She said,
"Do you want them to suffer, mother?"
Xiao asked in a neutral tone,
"Take them out quick"
Yun Lan responded, to which Xiao complied, within seconds the people that she had pointed out became minced meat and vanished, their souls especially being taken care of by Xiao such that even in death they would suffer,
"The Golden Killer squad of the Yun family, makes them suffer"
Yun Lan spoke, Xiao obediently nodded his head at it, his mind finding all the frozen people of the such squad, they were there frozen within the Yun family estate, a small tick within them and they all appeared in the large hall, they didn't even get to register their location before which they started to scream in pain, their eyes being blacked out while their blood started to flow from all part of their body, be it, men or women, they all suffered the same fate.
Meanwhile, Yun Lan settled back into her chair as she closed her eye enjoying the screams of pain of the people that once threatened her with everything, it lasted for minutes after which the screaming stopped, and so did the life of all that was in the squad.
