My husband Can Cultivate

Yang Qi sneered, "Call your families. Tell them to come pick you up, and remember to prepare the funds. Without money, you can't take anyone away. Also, prepare your apologies, or you won't be taking anyone away either."

"You lunatic! You're a complete lunatic! You'll be punished for this, just you wait! I'm calling my grandfather right now to show you just how foolish you are," Zheng Bunai shouted.

He had forgotten the sight of Yang Qi killing Jiang Ran; otherwise, he would never have dared to shout like that. The strongest elder of the Zheng Family was only a Seventh Rank Overlord, far inferior to Jiang Ran. Since Yang Qi had killed even Jiang Ran, what did he have to fear from them?

"Chen He, Chu Renxiong, Feng Wencai, and the rest of you who took a Corpse Worm Pill, you can sit and wait. As for everyone else, get on your knees. Let me give you a reminder: if anyone dares reveal that they took the Corpse Worm Pill, I will slaughter them immediately. Don't doubt my methods."

After giving his instructions, Yang Qi turned and walked into the Baishan Estate. The battle with Jiang Ran had consumed a great deal of his energy, but his gains were also enormous. That fight had allowed him to completely master the combat power of the Seventh Layer of the Body Tempering Stage.

"Chu Renxiong, Chen He, Feng Wencai, you worthless trash! I'll tell everyone you took that kid's Corpse Worm Pill! I'll see to it that he's torn to pieces! I want revenge!" Zheng Bunai roared.

Chu Renxiong walked over and stared coldly at Zheng Bunai. "Since you insist, you have no one to blame but yourself. I can only make you a mute."

With that, he plunged a dagger into Zheng Bunai's mouth. In the next moment, Zheng Bunai could only produce muffled whimpers, unable to speak a word.

"Listen up! Whoever dares to betray us, I guarantee they'll end up worse than Zheng Bunai. The Zheng Family is finished. I hope you all remember that," Chu Renxiong threatened viciously.

He had no choice now. He had to obey Yang Qi, because defiance meant death. Therefore, not only did he have to obey, but he also had to be loyal.

「Meanwhile, in Sea City.」

After being tricked into returning, Wu Xiu was furious. "Wu Feng, are you freaking insane? Tricking me into coming back! It's been two days, and I haven't seen Young Master Zheng or any of the action. Young Master Zheng must have dealt with that Yang Qi kid by now. You really ruined my fun!"

Wu Feng glanced coldly at Wu Xiu. "If you had stayed there, you would be dead. Zheng Bunai is definitely out of luck this time. You have no idea how terrifying Yang Qi is. Besides, don't forget, he's the disciple of the Star Shining Society's mysterious and powerful boss. Were you trying to get yourself killed by staying there? I haven't heard from Zheng Bunai in two days. I reckon he's done for."

What Wu Feng didn't know yet was that while Zheng Bunai was still alive, Wei Ying was already dead.

"Impossible!" Wu Xiu couldn't believe it, but he was getting agitated. He'd been calling Zheng Bunai, but no one was picking up. It felt like something had really happened.

"What's so impossible about it?" Wu Feng sneered. "I just got news that Wei Ying and his group went to Thunder City this morning. If nothing was wrong over there, why would Wei Ying go? He was obviously sent as support. I just don't know if they'll succeed."

"Even Chief Wei went? Then there's even less chance of a problem! With Chief Wei's methods, forget a mere Yang Qi—even the boss of the Star Shining Society would be a dead man," Wu Xiu said, thrilled. He hadn't expected this minor affair to alarm the chief of the Hidden Dragon Club.

He was even more clueless that Wei Ying was already dead in Thunder City.

"Yang Qi? Why are you discussing that trash? What does he have to do with our Wu Family?" Wu Heng strode over, fuming as he barked the question.

Wu Xiu smiled. "Dad, don't be angry. Here's what happened..."

After hearing the full story, Wu Heng's anger subsided. "I've wanted to get rid of that bastard for a long time. I never thought he'd fall into Wei Ying's sights. He's definitely doomed now. As long as that guy's alive, he's a thorn in the side of our Wu Family here in Sea City. Now that someone else is taking care of him for us, it's the best possible news."

"Everyone from the Hidden Dragon Club went, except for the members of our Wu Family. That kid wouldn't survive even if he had ten lives," Wu Xiu said smugly.

Wu Feng, however, could only sigh. He had seen Yang Qi's terrifying power firsthand in the Forbidden Land. He simply couldn't believe that Wei Ying could kill him, let alone that useless Zheng Bunai. But he said nothing. Since he wasn't Wu Heng's son, he wasn't well-regarded and couldn't be bothered to express his opinion.

「Meanwhile, at the Wei Family's estate in Sea City.」

Inside the enormous estate, the atmosphere was oppressively heavy.

The Wei Family was the top family in Sea City, first not only in martial strength but also in wealth. Yet their Young Master, Wei Ying, had been killed, and his body had just been delivered.

Old Master Wei gazed at his grandson in the ice coffin and nearly fainted on the spot. Fortunately, someone was there to support him. After catching his breath, he shed tears of blood. "Who? Who did this? Who killed my grandson!"

Seeing Old Master Wei's state, everyone present trembled with fear. The patriarch of the city's foremost family was also one of the ultimate authorities in Sea City. He, along with the City Lord and the Hall Master of the Martial Alliance, was known as one of Sea City's three great figures. But unlike the other two, Old Master Wei was a recluse who preferred pulling strings from behind the scenes, making him the most mysterious and unpredictable of them all.

Today, he had actually emerged.

His most beloved grandson had been killed, and the body was laid right before his door. His grandson was number one on the Hidden Dragon List, an outer disciple of the Heavenly God Sect, and the future heir of the Wei Family. Now, he was just a cold corpse.

BOOM!

A terrifying killing intent swept through the area, and many people fell to their knees at once. This old master was far too powerful.

While it was debatable if he was the strongest in Sea City, he was undoubtedly a top-tier powerhouse, at least publicly. Offending him here meant doom, unless the City Lord Mansion or the Martial Alliance intervened. Even the Martial Arts Association would be useless, as it was merely a subordinate organization to the Martial Alliance.

Everyone was on tenterhooks, terrified that Old Master Wei might erupt in anger and demolish the entire area. For such a powerful expert, destroying a few blocks would be a simple matter.

In Sea City, the Wei Family was practically divine. Who dared to disrespect them? Even the other two major powers had to show them some deference. As for the other families and corporations, they couldn't even dream of meeting Old Master Wei. They had to kneel just to speak in Wei Ying's presence. Such was their power.

But this time, someone had slaughtered Wei Ying—Old Master Wei's proxy.

Old Master Wei's affection for Wei Ying was comparable to Emperor Kang Xi's for Qian Long.
