Battle Emperor - Chapter 24

Chapter 24

Xie Ao Yu had the earth, thunder, and wood attributes. Concerning the earth attribute, he possessed a very strong fighting skill…Overlord Dragon Boxing. It alone would require him studying eight to ten years. The Xie family also had plenty of thunder and wood attribute fighting skills, but ones that could make him actually practice them, there wasn’t even one.

But this Scarlet Lightning Exploding Chop produced a strong interest within him.

It was as if it had been prepared especially for the Lightning Spirit Holy Sword.

In the end after Xie Ao Yu had seen this, he read it for about an hour. With his talent, he had fully understood the Lightning Exploding Chop. He could probably even use it immediately right now.

He kept looking through the other scrolls until Lina awoke from her unconsciousness with a groan. The sound made him alert. He hastily placed the Scarlet Lightning Exploding Chop alone inside his space ring.

After knocking Lina unconscious again, he placed her and Xie Zhe into some sacks, and told Xiao Bai to get Geer to take them to the foot of the mountain. After getting those two to the mountain, hide them there, and then have Geer wait for Xiao Bai to bring news, and then bring those two to the Xie family.

After that Xie Ao Yu went home.

“Ao Yu, did something happen?” Xie Lian asked worriedly. Because multiple children of the Xie family had been killed, but there had been no clues, he was currently worried.

Xie Ao Yu said: “Uncle, are you worried because Xie Liang and the others died?”

It was rare to see Xie Ao Yu with such a serious expression. Xie Lian couldn’t but honestly reply: “Yes.”

“I know who the culprit is.” Xie Ao Yu said.

“What? You know? Who is it?” Xie Lian urgently asked.

Xie Ao Yu lightly said: “Not only do I know who killed Xie Liang and the others, I also know who poisoned by father, causing him to be in a coma for the past three years.

Xie Lian opened his eyes up wide.

He suddenly discovered that Xie Ao Yu was no longer the Xie Ao Yu from before because he was still calm. Even after knowing who the culprit was, he still had a calm expression on his face.

Xie Ao Yu also felt a little strange.

He was about to get revenge, but he wasn’t happy at all, instead he felt very calm. Even he didn’t think that his calmness was the suitable for right now.

But after carefully thinking, he understood.

It was because Xie Kun was not only the Xie family’s elder, he was also connected to the matter with Xie Gan. He was Xie Ao Yu’s father’s brother. Fundamentally speaking, among the Xie family, their blood relationship had been very close.

They were family.

Thus there was no excitement or anger; instead, there was a feeling of frustration.

“Who’s the culprit, I can’t say right now. I think uncle should bring over the entire Xie family then I’ll say.” Xie Ao Yu said.

“Ao Yu, you say you know who the culprit is. Do you have proof?” Xie Lian said seriously.

Xie Ao Yu nodded his head strongly.

“Alright, I’ll gather a meeting.” Xie Lian stared at Xie Ao Yu for a while, chose to believe, and sent out a patriarch’s summon.

“Uncle, at what time can everyone gather?” Xie Ao Yu asked.

“It’ll probably need an hour.” Xie Lian replied.

Xie Ao Yu turned around and began to walk, “I’ll be back in an hour.”

He returned to the sixth elder’s home.

Arriving in front of Xie Gan’s bed, Xie Ao Yu kneeled in front of the bed, and gently said: “Father, since Xie Ao Yu has started to cultivate qi, it seems as if I haven’t talked with you in forever. Let’s talk for a while.”

While talking, Xie Ao Yu’s eyes began to form tears.

Past scenes flashed in surfaced before his eyes.

When he was younger, a scene of where his father was playing with him.

At the age of seven when he still couldn’t cultivate qi, father’s anxiety.

For him, he had traveled the continent, pleading with countless masters. Those sort of heartfelt actions until now had still made him feel sour inside.

Three years ago, the random coma. That had caused him to still not wake up and caused much suffering. These scenes went by one by one before Xie Ao Yu. His tears didn’t come down.

Because his father had said before, men do not cry easily.

Because he still had things to do, he wanted to win the Continent Youth Competition championship. He wanted to win the Water of the Holy Spirit in order to revive his father.

“It’s already time.” Xie Ao Yu stood up, placed Xie Gan on his back. At this time, he seemed to have grown up and become a man with an indomitable spirit, “Father, Ao Yu will now get revenge for you!”

Xiao Bai at this time left the Xie house and went to the foot of the mountain.

Under the curious looks of others, Xie Ao Yu left the house.

After going through a gate, in front of him was the main hall.

The inside of the main hall was overcrowded, all of the elders and Xie Ao Yu’s seniors, juniors, and Xie Ao Yu’s peers had all come.

They were all waiting for Xie Ao Yu.

When everyone saw Xie Ao Yu carrying Xie Gan, they were all started.

Some people came to greet, but Xie Ao Yu shook his head. He carried Xie Gan and went straight through the crowds, walked into the main hall, and in one glance spotted fourth elder Xie Kun sitting near the front.

“Uncle, where is my father’s seat?” Xie Ao Yu said.

Since Xie Gan had been in a coma for three years, he long since no longer had a seat, but since Xie Gan had contributed so much to the Xie family, the person who was sitting in the clan’s first elder seat stood up, “Right here.”

“Thank you, first elder.” Xie Ao Yu placed Xie Gan down.

The entire Xie family, gathered here were more than two hundred people, at this time were completely silent.

The atmosphere was very heavy.

“Xie Ao Yu, what are you doing?” Fourth elder Xie Kun saw Xie Gan and felt a little awkward. Xie Lian had sent the command without stating the reason, but seeing Xie Gan appear made him incredibly awkward.

Xie Lian opened his mouth and said: “Ao Yu will reveal who was the person that killed Xie Lian and the others.”

The originally silent people began to immediately create a ruckus.

Many people were whispering.

Xie Liang and the others’ deaths had caused the Xie family no small amount of disturbance. Up until now, the Xie family was still searching for the culprit, and some of the Xie family’s children didn’t even dare to go outside.

Xie Kun knew that Xie Zhe worked with Te Luo Si and the other Ao Te Si clan remnants. When he hear it, his heart began to beat uncontrollably.

At this time, he realized that Xie Zhe hadn’t come.

A sense of ill foreboding climbed up through his mind.

He looked at Xie Gan again, had his unease increased. If it was only Xie Liang and the others’ deaths, then Xie Gan shouldn’t have appeared here. Could it be that…

“Ao Yu, please say it. Who’s the killer?” The first elder said, he was Xie Liang’s father.

“Please wait a moment.” Xie Ao Yu said.

Time went by minute by minute.

Right when people were beginning to feel impatient, a “Yiya” sound came.

“Xie Zhe!” Some people shouted.

Everyone turned backwards to see.

They saw Xie Zhe with his hands tied behind his back, his mouth was stuffed with a rag. Next to him was a woman undergoing the same treatment. Behind them was Geer.

“How dare you, Xie Ao Yu. What is this!” Fourth elder Xie Kun angrily yelled.

The first elder stood up, his eyes were watching Lina, “This woman seems like the Ao Te Si clan’s patriarch’s daughter Lina.”

“First elder’s eyes are very clear. You could tell in a single glance.” Xie Ao Yu said.

“That person is really a remnant of the Ao Te Si clan?” The third elder exclaimed.

This shout made everyone’s eyes focus on Lina.

Xie Ao Yu looked towards Xie Kun and faintly said “ Fourth elder wants to know why, why would Xie Zhe and Ao Te Si clan’s remnant be together?”

“If you say they were together then that means they were together?” Xie Kun coldly said.

“It’s not I who said it, it was Xie Zhe who did.” Xie Ao Yu pulled out a letter and a note, giving it to patriarch Xie Lian one part, and the rest he gave to the first elder, “Uncle and elders, please look.”

Those letters not only included Xie Zhe and Xie Gang’s actions, it also had Lina’s conspiracy against the Xie family. All the elders looked like they had been fried.

Xie Kun tossed away the piece of paper in his hand, angrily saying: “This doesn’t make sense. If Xie Zhe and Xie Gang were working with them, why was Xie Gang killed by them? Weren’t they going to use Xie Zhe and Xie Gang? Isn’t that a paradox!”

“That’s right. Why would this happen.” The first elder frowned, “Did they have a falling out.

Xie Ao Yu lightly said: “They didn’t have a falling out.

“Then why was Xie Gang killed.” Xie Kun asked.

“That’s because Xie Gang was…” Xie Ao Yu slowly raised his head, his two eyes formed a cold expression, “I killed him!”
