I Have Unlimited Dantians

The Nie Family’s council hall.

"It’s been over ten days. The people from the Nie Tian Branch seem to have vanished into thin air. Could they have already escaped?"

Feng Tianxing drummed his five fingers lightly on the tabletop, his expression grim and serious.

"Escaped? If that’s true, then we’re in trouble. If we can’t capture Nie Xiaotian and the others, we won’t get the secret to advancing to the Qi Sect. We’ll have offended the City Lord’s Mansion for nothing. This deal will be a total loss!" Chen Tongsheng was a businessman and liked to measure gains and losses in business terms.

"Everyone, don’t be anxious. The City Lord’s Mansion considers Nie Yun their son-in-law. As long as we announce the news of Nie Qiang and Luoqing City’s marriage, I refuse to believe Nie Yun won’t show up! And once we capture Nie Yun, getting Nie Xiaotian will be no problem at all!"

Nie Haotian gave a faint smile, as if he had already calculated everything. He was in control of the situation, confident of his victory.

"Based on Nie Yun’s past behavior, he would probably come if we spread this news. But the situation is different now. Before, he had the City Lord’s Mansion backing him, so he could do as he pleased. Now, the Four Great Families have joined forces and have the City Lord’s Mansion suppressed. Since he knows returning means certain death, why would he walk right into a trap?"

Yangg Tiecheng was unconvinced.

"Don’t worry. Even if that doesn’t work, I know the exact location of Nie Tian’s tomb from the Nie Tian Branch. At worst, we’ll dig up his grave and desecrate his corpse. As his descendant, if he doesn’t show himself when his ancestor is being tormented, let’s see how he can live with himself!"

Nie Haotian snorted coldly.

"What? Desecrate his corpse? Isn’t that a bit too much? If word gets out that we dug up a grave to defile a body, how could our Four Great Families show our faces in Luoshui City again?"

"It’s truly outrageous. Nie Tian was your own uncle, wasn’t he? To do such a thing is utterly heartless!"

Hearing Nie Haotian actually suggest such a method, Feng Tianxing and the others exchanged glances, each of them frowning.

Punishment should not extend to one’s descendants, nor should insults extend to one’s ancestors. To dig up someone’s ancestral tomb and defile the corpse was a violation of the most basic moral principles.

"What’s the big deal? Have you all forgotten you want to advance to the Qi Sect? Since we’ve already come this far, we must be ruthless. If you’re going to be timid and hesitant, you can forget about getting that secret. You’d be dreaming!"

Nie Haotian snorted, then continued, "Relax. That’s just a last resort. Nie Yun will definitely show up when he learns Luoqing City is going to marry Nie Qiang. Right now, my dear Qiang has already laid a Heaven and Earth Net at the City Lord’s Mansion. If all goes as planned, we’ll see that Nie Yun dragged back here tonight!"

"I hope so. But you still need to be careful. From the information we’ve gathered, that brat Nie Yun is very strange. We must plan this meticulously. If by some chance he rescues Luoqing City, we’ll walk away with nothing!"

Yangg Tiecheng grunted.

"Rescue Luoqing City? Heh. With his True Qi Realm strength? Are you kidding me? I know he has a Tiger-Headed Beast that excels in speed, but once he enters the City Lord’s Mansion, I guarantee it’ll be a one-way trip! Don’t worry, speed is useless in the face of absolute power!"

Nie Haotian waved his hand dismissively, his arrogance and confidence on full display.

"Clan Leader, someone asked me to deliver a gift box. They said it’s to congratulate the Four Great Families on having all their wishes come true!"

Suddenly, the voice of a guard rang out from outside the hall.

"A gift box? What gift box? Bring it in!" Nie Haotian was taken aback.

"Yes, sir!" With that, a guard walked in, holding a box about a foot in diameter.

"Haha, it seems someone in Luoshui City knows how to read the situation. They know we’re about to take over, so they’re rushing to send gifts... Hmm, who sent this?" Nie Haotian laughed heartily and casually took the gift box. He wanted to see who sent it, but found its surface as smooth as a mirror, without a single word written on it.

People usually wrote things like ’Congratulations from so-and-so’ on their gift boxes. Since this one was blank, how was he supposed to know who sent it?

’They don’t even know how to properly curry favor. Really...’ Nie Haotian shook his head.

"I didn’t get a clear look at the person, but he said he was just a minor figure in the Nie Family. He claimed the item is incredibly precious and that the Clan Leader would be extremely pleased after seeing it!" The guard handed the box over.

"Incredibly precious? Extremely pleased? Hmm, not bad. It’s rare to see such devotion. Open the box. If I’m truly satisfied, I’ll make sure this ’minor figure’ has a meteoric rise and reaches the heavens in a single step!"

Hearing the guard’s words, Nie Haotian let out a happy laugh. He stood up from his seat, putting on the airs of a powerful and important figure, and swaggered over. He casually opened the box, but when he saw what was inside, he stumbled back several steps—THUD THUD THUD THUD—and let out a wretched cry!

"Qiang..."

Inside the box was not some precious treasure, but the head of his son, Nie Qiang!

Someone had actually sent Nie Qiang’s head in a gift box!

"It’s Nie Qiang!"

"Nie Qiang was killed?"

"Who in Luoshui City would be so audacious? Do they have a death wish?"

The other three clan leaders also got a clear look at the box’s contents and were all startled.

To kill Nie Qiang and send his head over... this was a blatant provocation!

"Is Haoo Tian Clan Leader satisfied with my gift? I spent a great deal of effort and thought preparing this..."

Just then, a light chuckle sounded from outside the hall, and a few figures walked in.

"Nie Yun, Nie Xiaotian, Feng Xiao, Yangg Yan, Chen Xing?"

Leading the group were the very father and son everyone had been trying to capture, Nie Yun and Nie Xiaotian. Feng Xiao and the other two followed behind them.

"Xiao, what are you doing with them? Get over here, now!" Feng Tianlong never expected his only son to be mixed up with Nie Yun. His expression changed, and he shouted urgently.

"Chen Xing, you get over here too! This is their family’s internal affair. You’d best not get involved!"

Chen Tongsheng added hurriedly.

Although his son had turned and left that day, he had assumed it was just youthful impulsiveness and that he would be back in a few days. He never imagined that when he did return, it would be after killing Nie Qiang and getting mixed up with Nie Yun and his group.

Putting aside the matter of killing Nie Qiang, Nie Yun and Nie Xiaotian alone were people they had to kill. ’Siding with them... isn’t that just asking for trouble?’

"Father, stop this! Since you know it’s their family’s internal affair, why are you involved? Let’s just go home!" Hearing his father’s shout, Chen Xing shook his head.

’I had originally chosen to follow Feng Xiao and Yangg Yan simply as a gamble on the situation. Now, it seems I bet correctly!’

’Nie Yun went to the City Lord’s Mansion all by himself, killed Nie Qiang, and even wiped out all the Elders who were there to ambush him. When I first heard the news a moment ago, I nearly fainted from shock!’

’Killing over a dozen Gang Formation Realm masters in one go... not even an Armor Realm powerhouse could do that, right? But this young man right here did it. This just confirms my decision. Following him is definitely far better than following Nie Haotian!’

"Insolent! Since when do I need you to tell me what to do?"

Hearing his son lecture him in public, Chen Tongsheng’s face darkened.

"Alright, Chen Xing. Don’t worry, I won’t kill your father. However, his time as Clan Leader is over. I’ll have you take his place!"

"Not kill me? Are you dreaming? If you’d stayed hidden where we couldn’t find you, that would be one thing. But now you dare to show your face here? Do you really think you can walk out alive?" Hearing the young man’s words, Chen Tongsheng almost laughed himself silly.

’I’m a Peak Powerhouse of the Armor Realm. For him to dare speak to me like that... he’s got some serious nerve!’

"You dared to kill my son. No matter what backing you have, you will die today! Men, seize them!"

Nie Haotian’s face was contorted with rage, his hands trembling as he held his son’s head.

"Men! Seize them, now!"

He shouted, but there was no response. Nie Haotian shouted again, but once more, there was only silence from outside.

"No need to shout. Your loyal subordinates... are all dead!"

Nie Yun said calmly. Before he had even finished speaking, a flurry of hurried footsteps sounded in front of the hall. Then, one by one, corpses were thrown inside, instantly forming a pile!

They were none other than Nie Haotian’s loyal subordinates.

PS: The collection count is rising so slowly today, sob sob. We’re still a long way from the target. Come on, everyone, don’t you want to see four Chapters released?? Still asking for recommendations. I can’t do a mass release during the new book period, because I’ll fall off the rankings if I do. We’re at over 170,000 words now, which is a dangerous period... But it’s okay. As long as we get premium, Lao Ya will go crazy with the mass releases. Get your monthly tickets ready for me, and I promise a release so explosive you’ll be shouting for more!!
