Family Cultivation: My entire family are Villains-Chapter 68 - 055, despicable little clan, forgive the young hero’s laughter [Please favorite!]

The first to charge in, Hou Yuxiao, was pierced through the heart and lungs by a spear and killed instantly.

Hou Yucheng, who charged next, was slapped away by Zhao Ponu, his powerful force instantly shattering Yucheng's skull, leaving him unconscious and nearly dead.

Hou Yuling was completely dazed, incessantly weeping as she looked towards the blood mist in the air, crying out for her father with a face full of confusion and terror.

Regarding the Fourth Elder, the usually calm Fifth Brother Hou Yuduan couldn't contain himself and, with eyes red with rage, charged towards Zhao Ponu to fight him to the death.

The result was self-evident. Zhao Ponu flicked out two strands of True Qi, piercing through both their legs, immediately kneeling them on the ground with no strength to retaliate.

Their five-person team was too weak, so weak that Zhao Ponu's desire to exterminate them completely wasn't very strong…

"Thinking that hiding in such a small place, Qinjian Villa wouldn't find you, Demon Extermination List entry number 819, Black Ape Demon Hou Tong, hahahahaha..."

Zhao Ponu seemed to recall something, his laughter filled with mockery. He didn't even give a proper glance at the four lying on the ground, his gaze directly fixed on Hou Yuling.

"Junior Sister Lu, she's the one!"

Junior Sister Lu, the woman in the white dress by Zhao Ponu's side, slowly stood up and walked in front of Hou Yuling, eyeing her beautiful face with gradually growing jealousy.

Slap...

A crisp slap echoed, instantly drawing blood from the corner of Hou Yuling's mouth. She lifted her head, looking at the woman with eyes full of fear, like pears bathed in rain.

But this was just the beginning…

Right in the Hou's main hall, in front of Hou Yucheng and the others, the woman with the surname Lu stripped Hou Yuling's clothes off, one piece at a time, clearly searching for something. Ultimately, she found what she was looking for.

She used True Qi to pierce the center of Hou Yuling's forehead, brutally digging out a thumb-sized piece of bone.

Hou Yuling, pampered and spoiled since childhood by Hou Tong, had just witnessed her father's death before her eyes and now suffered such horrifying torture. The dual assault on her mind and body completely broke her.

"Dad, save Ling Er…"

"Spare me, please spare me…"

"Eldest brother, Second Elder, save me!"

Her cries were hoarse and incoherent with despair, but unfortunately, they couldn't soften the heart of the woman in white. Even upon hearing Hou Yuling beg, the woman's expression remained unmoved.

Those still conscious were only Fourth Elder Hou Yujie and Fifth Brother Hou Yuduan. Both were suppressed by Zhao Ponu, lying on the ground, witnessing everything helplessly.

They wanted to rise and fight desperately, wanting to tear the woman named Lu to pieces… But all of that was wishful thinking. Under Zhao Ponu's suppression of True Qi, they couldn't even manage something as simple as speaking, let alone anything else.

Hou Yujie lay on the ground, bearing the pressure of Zhao Ponu's True Qi and barely raised his head, his gaze fixed on the woman in white. Though he couldn't speak, his eyes conveyed everything words could have said.

His gaze had no effect, instead, Hou Yujie suffered even more pain.

A cold flash crossed Zhao Ponu's face. He leisurely walked to Yujie's side, intentionally withdrawing his True Qi pressure and stomped down on his groin.

Clearly, Zhao Ponu withdrew the pressure intending to hear Hou Yujie shriek in pain, allowing him to be able to speak.

But unexpectedly, enduring such intense pain and humiliation, Hou Yujie clenched his teeth, and even with his lips bitten until blood flowed freely, he did not utter a single sound of pain.

"You're quite tough!"

Clearly, Hou Yujie's reaction came as a surprise to Zhao Ponu. He scoffed contemptuously and his eyes flashed coldly, raising his spear, poised to take his life.

"You're afraid of us!"

Two years ago, if not for Fifth Brother Hou Yuduan, who knelt on the ground and out of desperation shouted these four words to carve a path to survival, not one of the five siblings would have lived!

The natural nobility that emanated from Zhao Ponu and that woman, along with such formidable strength, undoubtedly indicated that both came from extremely noble origins.

Hou Yuduan knew well that people like them, with gifts, strength, background, support, and even wisdom, were far beyond ordinary, almost without any weaknesses. The only exploitable point was their pride!

Thus, Hou Yuduan had cried out, "You are afraid of us," never really expecting such a crude provocation would go unseen by Zhao Ponu; he merely gambled on their pride, hoping they would willingly fall for his taunt.

"Hahahahahaha..."

As expected, Zhao Ponu, clearly seeing through the ruse, still burst into roars of laughter as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world.

In the end, just as Hou Yuduan hoped, Zhao Ponu didn't kill them. Yet, he did not speak a single word to them either and only gave them a look of utter contempt, then left with the woman in the white dress, leaving behind a devastated Hou Family.

That brief couple of hours of memory, however, lingered in the minds of the five siblings like a nightmare, including Hou Yuxiao, who had fully merged with his body now, also vividly felt the hysterical hatred from two years ago.

First, that marriage contract could not have been fake, as Hou Tong had already expressed the gap in status between Hou Yuling and Zhao Ponu, suggesting that marriage was unlikely, and he had even proposed to annul the marriage.

Secondly, there had to be other reasons why Zhao Ponu killed Hou Tong. Hou Tong's taking them to hide in Zhaoyang, a small place, was likely also related to this reason.

Hou Tong probably knew the capabilities of the spies from the villa; hence, knowing he was found, he didn't run but chose to offer to annul the marriage to calm things down, only to find that Zhao Ponu would strike directly.

Lastly, the bone taken from Hou Yuling also involved some significant secrets, it's just that Hou Yuxiao and the others were too weak to know about them yet.

The siblings indeed didn't have a good reputation in Zhaoyang County, but Zhaoyang itself was under the rule of the Demon Path, where barely any reputable people existed.

The law of the jungle was explicitly evident here, and since they were the children of Hou Tong, the top expert, having a good reputation was impossible.

In fact, with the strict discipline from Hou Tong, the siblings were not bad in character.

All the changes in their lives started from that day!

Including Hou Yuxiao, as he merged more and more with his body, the psychological changes caused by that calamity two years ago also became increasingly severe.

Over these two years, the five siblings tacitly never mentioned that incident, but the resentment hidden in their hearts never diminished slightly. Now, Tian Fazheng and Gu Chenfeng bringing it up again was undoubtedly exposing their raw wounds.

Moreover, their claim that the siblings attempted to climb up the social ladder with the marriage contract was clearly Zhao Ponu twisting the truth, intensifying their resentment.

Hou Yuxiao was the first among the siblings to regain clarity in his eyes. He clenched his fists and turned his head; the normally calm Fifth Brother Hou Yuduan now had blood-red pupils and seemed to lose control of his emotions slightly.

Seeing Hou Yuling with tears brimming in her eyes and her body trembling uncontrollably, Hou Yuxiao was deeply shaken, recalling the inhuman torture she suffered. After a long silence, he said nothing but stepped forward, wrapping his arms around Hou Yuling, patting her back like comforting a child,

"Mother, don't be afraid... it's all in the past... don't be afraid..."

Seeing Hou Yuling slowly gaining control of her emotions, Hou Yuxiao breathed a slight sigh of relief, gathered the coldness from his eyes ensuring his expression was normal before turning to look at Gu Chenfeng and Tian Fazheng.

"Qinjian Villa is as high as the heavens, and the Hou Family as low as the earth. Two years ago, indeed, our father was foolishly wishful, causing a great embarrassment. Offending the junior villa master was indeed deserving of death, a vile and petty clan we were, amusing the two young heroes!"

No one saw, despite the vile smile on his face as Hou Yuxiao uttered these words, the fists hidden under his sleeves were clenched tightly enough to draw blood.

Behind him, including Hou Yucheng and others, all looked at Tian Fazheng and Gu Chenfeng, realizing something from their elder brother's words, kept their heads down, saying nothing.

Gu Chenfeng, seeing Hou Yuxiao's demeanor, showed a trace of scorn on his face, carelessly turned his head away.

But Tian Fazheng was different; a gleam flashed in the depths of his pupils, and the disdain in his eyes slightly lessened.

Of course, it was just a slight reduction!
