Sage Monarch Chapter 44

Chapter 44 - The elder's fear (Part two)

The loud roar from Awakened Lion Yang did not leave any impact on Yang Qi.

The offensive sonic wave entered Yang Qi's head and twirled a bit inside. However, it had been dispelled by the force from the Power of the Divine Elephant that Suppresses Hell. It was just that he had stopped the qi drawing process and currently did not abolish Yang Shi's cultivation.

He wanted to hear what the Awakened Lion Yang would say.

No matter what, he belonged to Yang family, and the Awakened Lion Yang was the most powerful elder of the family. So, in comparison, the elder's position was even higher than his grandfather, so he couldn't disrespect the opponent.

"Old ancestor, do you have something to tell me?"

Yang Qi didn't leave Yang Shi's body as he was speaking.

"First, can you let Yang Shi go before we continue?" Awakened Lion Yang furrowed, "That man was actually your uncle, how could you treat him like that? Even though he sneak attacked you, he is still a senior. If you're not wounded, then just leave it. And then, isn't disabling his qigong a bit too much?"

"If I'm not wounded? It's because my strength is too powerful, far exceeding his. If my ability isn't enough, isn't it the case that I could have been killed by him in a moment? Then, at that moment, who would replace me?" Yang Qi definitely would not let it pass for Yang Shi. He was very firm in denying the implicit order in the form of a question from Awakened Lion Yang.

"You brat? Dare to talk like that with the Great granduncle!"

Scholar Yang Xu stepped up and used his fan to point at Yang Qi as he shouted angrily, "Disgraceful, this is truly disgraceful. Isn't it true that you're not wounded? Yang Shi is one of the main caretakers of the family. His position is much higher than yours. Even if he has killed you, punishing him is the task and decision of the whole elder group of the family. It's not your task to do the punishment."

"True."

Yang Zhen also leisurely said, "It's in the house rules. Yang Shi's mistake would be considered and decided by the elder group. Even if something happens to your father Yang Zhan, the elder group would assess its severity to decide. Currently, great-granduncle is the supreme leader of the whole elder group who has the power to consider and decide for everything. Though he ordered you to release Yang Shi, you still want to go against? Do you actually want to go against the whole family, and become the family's sinner?"

"Yang Shi is just suspecting that you've been possessed by a demon, that's why he took actions." Among the elder group, there was this one old man who talked with coldness. "He has his reason to act, to exorcise. Not only he isn't at fault, he actually has done a good deed."

"Yang Wangxi, do you mean to say my son's a demon?"

Yang Zhan shouted out loud.

He was an owner, and had promoted up to Qi Zong level; thus his position rose up naturally. Even upon facing the elder group, unlike the previous owner who was submissive in front of the elder group, he could refute their ideas.

The elder that talked very cynically was "Yang Wangxi". He was also a strong warrior at the supreme 8th tier of QiGong and was currently cultivating to enter the 9th tier Qi Zong. In the family, he was the direct elder of Yang Shi and was very oppressive towards Yang Qi.

"How? Yang Zhan? You dare to suspect the regulations of the elder group?" Yang Wangxi slowly stood straight up, "Don't think that by having cultivation at Qi Zong, you could do anything as you wish. You son could even defeat the strong warriors with the 8th tier of QiGong level. Is it really his true power? Not from the demonic activity? Moreover, currently he wanted to abolish Yang Shi's qigong, shouldn't this be stopped? Or you just let his demonic side rampage, and kill off the entire Yang family's bloodline?"

As they were speaking, Yang Wangxi once again stared at Yang Qi, "You little animal, quickly release Yang Shi and kneel so that the elder group could capture the demon in your body and at the same time, abolish your qigong to exorcise your demonic aura. Otherwise, don't blame us for suppressing you for the rest of your life that you cannot get up."

"Yes, the demon within his body hasn't been exorcised, which indeed could cause a disaster," Yang Xu chimed in.

"Great granduncle, you've cultivated up to the maximum level of Qi Zong, so if you refine the demon within this brat's body, perhaps you could make a breakthrough toward Fate Stealing Realm." Yang Zhen suddenly gave an idea so horrible like pus.

The Awakened Lion Yang's brows loosened a bit as if he was thinking about this.

No one believed that there was no more demonic energy within Yang Qi's body.

"Ha ha ha..." Yang Qi suddenly smiled loudly, as his eyes flared up with some ideas. He then turned toward Yang Wangxi's body, "Yang Wangxi, don't think that by being an elder, I would spare your life after your trash talking. You called me a demon and I will not deny it. I'll let you see a bit of the demonic power."

Boom Boom!

Yang Qi took actions: his palm squeezed in and five fingers shrouded in the air. Powerful qi covered the air and became a huge net palm which plunged toward Yang Wangxi.

It was unexpected that he dared to directly attack an elder from the elder group in front of everyone.

"You brat, how dare you!"

"Dare to attack the elder?"

"You want to die!"

A lot of people were angry.

Roar!

Awakened Lion Yang took actions first. Obviously, Yang Qi's arrogance and conceit had deeply angered him. A junior dared to take it on the senior in the family, such a matter was extremely disgraceful.

This huge scholar growled with anger. The Lion king descended and behind him, an unexpected huge whirlwind appeared. From within its depth, a giant white qi tiger plunged out from there and its huge claw came down with a fist towards Yang Qi, "Junior, lie down for me!"

"Not quite."

As Yang Qi saw Awakened Lion Yang slash out, he also threw out a punch. The whirlwind qi turned into a streak of lighting which exploded in the air.

The piercing thunder came from Four-Season Sword Arts.

Boom!

As both qis collided, an earth-shattering explosion resounded in the air. The giant white tiger of Awakened Lion Yang exploded to pieces. This majestic and huge old man was pushed back more than ten steps, with each step leaving a deep print on the ground of the cave.

However, Yang Qi seemed unaffected. He still maintained his posture of stepping on Yang Shi and even the air surrounding him was very calm.

High and low had been determined.

"Yang Wangxi, catch." Yang Qi pushed back Awakened Lion Yang with a punch, while his other hand was unchanged from the beginning, though it kept emitting qi towards Yang Wangxi to grasp him.

Yang Wangxi's eyes were blood-red and didn't stop executing moves to fight back. However, this move of Yang Qi was the secret art, "Silky Spring Rain". A string-like qi that could even tie up the ancient mounts, so how could the other cut it?

Being tied up slowly, little by little, it unexpectedly became a cocoon which hanged upside down in front of Yang Qi.

"What?"

"Even the great granduncle's attack has been pushed back."

"How could this be? Is this boy human, since great-granduncle isn't even his opponent?"

In fact, so many elders wanted to make a move to attack Yang Qi; yet as they saw this performance, some were almost scared to death. True. Awakened Lion Yang was the best warrior of Yang family, the powerful old man was called Lion King. A hundred years ago, his name was prestigious and famous and possessed top-notch Qi Zong level. However, he was unexpectedly affected and pushed back continuously by Yang Qi's punch.

What concept would this be?

Was it that Yang Qi was a strong warrior at Fate Stealing Realm?

Only such warriors of Fate Stealing Realm in the legend could be like this.

All those who wanted to attack Yang Qi had all stepped back and withdrawn their qigong. Most of them had fearful facial expressions, and some even thought of running for their life.

"No one moves!"

Yang Zhan roared loudly to calm people down as he spoke to Awakened Lion Yang, "Great granduncle, the little boy has violated your orders, so I beg for your forgiveness." As he said those few words, the panic calmed down.

After a moment, Awakened Lion Yang started moving to calm the qi in his body. From the impact of Yang Qi's punch, he could only feel that his breathing was almost turned around by the collision. It didn't feel like he was battling out with a junior, but an ancient powerful beast, a huge beast.

In a moment, he almost felt like he had straddled along the boundary of death.

This made him shudder with terror. After a little while, he knew the young man in front had the ability to kill him.

"Good, very good." Suppressing fear and anger deep in his chest, Awakened Lion Yang stared sharply at Yang Qi. "Young boy, the demon inside you seems to be really powerful. Would you mind letting him out for me to open my eyes a bit?"

"Inside my body, there is really no demon at all." Yang Qi casually said. "If there is any, will it not just come out on its own, rather than being under my control? Moreover, I could bear the insult from my family, but the demon won't be able to. Wouldn't it have killed Yang Shi, would it even listen to the family rules?"

"Great granduncle, I assure you that there is no demon whatsoever inside his body. All comes from his hard work and unusual experience." Yang Zhan quickly said.

"Not possible? If there's no demon, how could he be so viciously powerful like that." Yang Xu shouted. His face was filled with disbelief while he yelled loudly. "Great granduncle, if there is such a demon in our family, we must announce it out into the world and invite the great families here to exorcise it!"

"You want to die!"

As he had listened, Yang Qi's face turned purple with anger. This Yang Xu even thought about bringing the wolf home by inviting those large families to kill him. He could not stay patient anymore.

Boom!

The powerful qi on his body exploded as he reached out his hand which was transforming constantly. Yang Xu retreated back continuously. He wasn't able to react in time before received a slap which turned him over on the ground and cried in pain.

"And you, Yang Zhen, enough with the ridicule. Lie down for me!"

Yang Qi threw out another slap. Yang Zhen couldn't avoid it and was also turned over on the ground. He cried furiously, "Demon! This demon!"

"Good. Four of you got tied up in one place now." Yang Qi didn't take notice of the swearing from these people. The Silky Spring Rain brought Yang Shi under his feet, then there were even Yang Xu, Yang Zhen and the old man Yang Wangxi, along with the "top-rank genius" Yang Hongjie; all had been tied up together.

All five people, from the elders to the house owner and even the junior, had been captured by Yang Qi and then tied up midair, hanging upside down.

At this moment, Yang Hongjie who had previously been unconscious woke up nervously with this tossing. However, upon seeing this scene, he was so terrified that he spat blood again.

"Yang Hongjie, your fame of being a top-ranked genius of the family must have been quite exaggerated." Yang Qi shook his head. "Good, I'll let you hang upside down for a while to gain consciousness. And you, Yang Shi, Yang Xu, and Yang Zhen. All three of you must swear in front of everyone today that you would completely obey my father from now on and be loyal to the family. Then, I would forgive you. Otherwise, I would abolish your qigong today. Currently, you guys know my means."

Crack!

Suddenly, at the moment Yang Qi was talking, a piece of mud underneath his feet flew up and turned into a sharp muddy spike. From the bottom up, it furiously rushed towards his crotch.

It was unknown whose attack this was, yet the move was so sinister and insidious.

"Impudent!" As Yang Qi stomped his feet, the muddy spike shattered while a wave of force was sent underneath the ground. A few hundred steps away, the "Greatest Lord Yan" spat out a gulp of blood.
