Son-in-law Heaven Emperor Xiao Yi-Chapter 677 - 676: Wind Thunder Eight Revolutions, A Formidable Enemy Arrives! [First Update]
"Someone is going to harm you, you must leave quickly!"
Liu Rufeng's face was as black as coal as he spoke with a solemn expression.
He was no fool.
When Yaochen Zi had sent him away ahead of time, he understood that Yaochen Zi was also tempted by Master Chen Yi's proposal and decided to take action against Xiao Yi.
After all...
Once they controlled Xiao Yi, they would effectively control one third of the Southern State.
This was not the same as in the Nantian Dynasty.
Though Medicine King Valley was powerful, it was not the top force within the Nantian Dynasty, and even they relied on their own backers, living at others' mercy. But in the Daqian Dynasty, it was different; by controlling Xiao Yi, they would have control over the entire kingdom.
As Master Chen Yi said, the Daqian Dynasty could be treated as the backyard of Medicine King Valley.
No one could resist such temptation.
Moreover...
Yaochen Zi himself was a valley master with great ambitions.
Xiao Yi was stunned and looked at Liu Rufeng in confusion, "My whereabouts have been leaked? Are the people from the Nantian Dynasty going to make a move against me?"
Now, he was a thorn in the side of the royal family of the Nantian Dynasty; they would not rest until he was removed.
If his whereabouts had indeed been leaked, it was very possible the Nantian Dynasty would send experts to surround and kill him.

Liu Rufeng shook his head and replied with a bitter smile, "It's not the Nantian Dynasty, but our own Medicine King Valley... This is also my fault. If I hadn't insisted on keeping you here to verify the authenticity of the elixir formula, you would have already returned to the Daqian Dynasty by now and wouldn't be facing this trouble. Xiao Yi, I've arranged for a team to secretly escort you out of the city. The moment you leave the city, you must hurry to the Daqian Dynasty. If I'm not mistaken, I fear Master Chen Yi himself will take action..."
Master Chen Yi, one of the three great eighth-grade alchemists in the Medicine King Valley.
Simultaneously...
He was also an eternal realm expert, a first-layer Human Venerable.
Xiao Yi raised an eyebrow and said with a smile, "Elder Liu, you are also an elder of the Medicine King Valley, don't you want to deal with me as well?"
Liu Rufeng harrumphed with cold disdain, having his own pride and not stooping to such actions.
He didn't even deign to explain.
Xiao Yi's mouth curved in a slight smile.
This somewhat stubborn old man also had his endearing side.
With that thought...
Xiao Yi nodded and said, "In that case, I'll have to trouble Elder Liu to send me on my way!"
"Hmm!"
Liu Rufeng immediately summoned Xu Hanling.
A moment later...
"Xiao Yi" took a carriage and left Chu County.
All of this was observed by people hiding in the shadows, who quickly relayed the information onwards.
However...
What they did not know was that this was all part of Liu Rufeng's deceptive strategy, and the real Xiao Yi had already left in a different direction alone.
Half a day later...
A crack opened in the void in front of Xu Hanling's carriage, and Master Chen Yi stepped out, flanked by Ge Ling and Chen Ze. Chen Ze looked at Xu Hanling with a sinister smile, "Xu Hanling, how dare you collude with Xiao Yi, the enemy of Medicine King Valley, and facilitate his escape? Hand him over now!"
Xu Hanling replied with an innocent face, "Brother Chen, how can you falsely accuse me? Xiao Yi is not in the carriage, it is Elder Liu!"
"Elder Liu? Who are you trying to fool?" Chen Ze laughed coldly, "I saw with my own eyes Xiao Yi getting into your carriage!"
Ge Ling said with a cold face, "Why bother talking nonsense? Have the person inside come out!"
Creak!
The carriage curtain was slowly lifted.
Liu Rufeng walked out with an amused look on his face, fixing his gaze on the shocked Ge Ling and Chen Ze, "What? Did you think just because you follow Elder Chen, you could arbitrarily stop my carriage?"
Thump!
The expressions on Ge Ling and Chen Ze's faces changed drastically.
Master Chen Yi's face was as dark as water, realizing he had been tricked.
Chen Ze said with a crestfallen look, "Elder Chen, I saw with my own eyes that Xiao Yi was on this carriage..."
"Enough! You've all been deceived..."
Master Chen Yi said with a dark face, turning his gaze to the triumphantly smiling Liu Rufeng, "Liu Rufeng, you dare sabotage my and the valley master's plan, you just wait... When we return to Medicine King Valley, I will surely report this matter to the valley master!"
Liu Rufeng sneered, "What is Elder Chen talking about? Could it be that I need your permission to ride in my own carriage and leave the city for some leisure?"
"Hmph!"
With a cold huff, Master Chen Yi grabbed Ge Ling and Chen Ze and soared into the sky.
He did not know Xiao Yi.
He had to bring the two men along to find him.
Watching the three disappear, Xu Hanling's face was filled with deep concern, "Elder, Xiao won't be in trouble, will he?"
Gently rubbing his head, Liu Rufeng smiled bitterly and shook his head, "We've done all we could, the rest is up to his own destiny."
Meanwhile...
Xiao Yi left in another direction and arrived in a mountain range.
This range was rampant with demonic beasts and seldomly visited by humans.
There, Xiao Yi declared, "I shall break through to the Eighth Transformation of the Wind-Thunder Holy Body here!"
Boom!
His body shook, lightning flickered all over him, and fierce winds howled into existence.
The storm and thunder merged.
Turning into a terrifying thunderstorm.
A cyan-golden thunderstorm soared into the sky like a long dragon, twisting its immense body as it thrust towards the vault of heaven. The terrible energy fluctuations instantly aroused the rolling tribulation thunder above the heavens.
An endless expanse of Black Cloud loomed overhead, thunderbolts like divine dragons booming as they fell.
Xiao Yichong rose to the sky.
Standing amidst the terrifying thunder tribulation.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
Allowing the successive bolts to bolster his body, Xiao Yi did not dodge in the slightest, letting the thunder purify his body.
With each strike, it was like undergoing a thousand refinements.
Making his body increasingly powerful.
All over his body,
Between the skin and muscles, faint golden arcs undulated, like lightning serpents roaming the surface. Filled with an explosive force, the Wind-Thunder Wings unfolded.
They continuously absorbed the power of the wind and thunder.
Originally only two pairs, the Wind-Thunder Wings gradually transformed.
Turning into four pairs of Wind-Thunder Wings.
The feathers of the Wind-Thunder Wings, formed entirely from thunder and storm, shimmered with a dazzling cyan-golden light, as if the Milky Way descended with each flap, casting blinding rays of light.
Crackle and snap!
Xiao Yi swallowed the Eighth-transformation Wind Thunder Elixir and plunged into the heart of the tribulation clouds.
Bathing in the ocean of thunder.
After a full incense stick's length of time,
The tribulation clouds above the firmament dispersed, and Xiao Yi, with four pairs of Wind-Thunder Wings on his back, descended slowly from the heavens.
Lightning flickered around him, on and off unpredictably.
Breaking through to the Eighth-transformation Wind Thunder Holy Body not only gave him four pairs of Wind-Thunder Wings and a tenfold increase in speed but also endowed Xiao Yi with two Secret Techniques—the Thunder God Spear and the Hurricane Divine Shield!
One for offense, one for defense.
His combat prowess surged dramatically!
Of course...
What delighted Xiao Yi even more was that the ninth diagram of the Tongtian Tiroku, which had been elusive, was finally fully comprehended!
All three records of the Tongtian Tiroku were elevated to the level of the ninth diagram.
All three paths of Nirvana had reached the state of Nine Nirvana Reincarnations.
"With my current strength, I should be able to battle a First-layer Human Venerable warrior, right?" Xiao Yi retracted his Wind-Thunder Wings, his eyes slightly lifting, looking forward to the slowly tearing open void ahead. His lips curled into a slight smile, "Have you finally arrived? Just in time to be my whetstone, to let me see how mighty my combat prowess truly is..."
