Nine Dragons Saint Ancestor

If it wasn’t for Yun Xiao today, even if someone had realized that it was poison, they probably couldn’t have escaped the Hua Family’s clutches. Furthermore, Hu Ying’er would have been captured and taken to the Yang Family, to endure the torment and abuse by the young master of the Yang Family, which would be unspeakably miserable.

It was, in fact, the second time that Yun Xiao had saved the Hu Family members from a desperate situation, a debt of gratitude that Hu Yuqing truly didn’t know how to repay. If he made decisions without considering Yun Xiao’s views at this moment, then he would really lack tact.

”The leader of the culprits has been eliminated. Let them swear a Heavenly Tribulation oath, promising to forever submit to the Hu Family. There’s no need for an all-out slaughter!”

Yun Xiao looked sideways at the Great Elder of the Hua Family, who was slightly trembling, and finally spoke. His words allowed the Hua Family members to breathe a sigh of relief, yet filled them with a bittersweet feeling.

The relief was naturally because their lives were spared; the bittersweetness stemmed from the acknowledgment that from now on, they would likely have to live under the thumb of the Hu Family.

If the Hu Family were still at its peak, it wouldn’t have mattered much. But now, with the Hu Family’s main branch decimated and the Yang Family looming over, the Hua Family’s future, tied to the Hu Family, seemed worrisome.

Yet, at such a time, if the Hua Family members did not obey Yun Xiao’s command, they would probably lose their lives in an instant—whatever calamities the future might hold for them was something they could no longer afford to worry about.

Led by the Great Elder of the Hua Family, many members of the Hua Family earnestly swore the Heavenly Tribulation oath. As the faint laws of heaven and earth enveloped them, the onlooking Hu Family members couldn’t help but show signs of excitement.
