After Xiao Yi finished speaking.
The voice, carrying its inherent pressure, caused both Nalan Yanran and Yun Yun's bodies to tremble slightly, uncontrollably.
Everyone present couldn't help but hold their breath, staring intently at Xiao Yi.
After all, everyone wanted to know what choice Xiao Yi would make... However, in the next second, Nalan Yanran, still unwilling to give up, heavily knocked her head on the ground with a thud, attempting one final struggle:
"Xiao Yi, three years ago, I was wrong. I didn't think things through and hastily came to annul the engagement, causing the Xiao Family such great humiliation..."
"Now, I, Nalan Yanran, am willing to be your servant for this life, only begging you to show mercy and spare my Master, spare the Cloud Mist Sect..."
At this moment, Nalan Yanran had long discarded the arrogance deep within her bones just to survive.
Xiao Yi, upon hearing this, only sneered:
"Miss Nalan, I think you are sorely mistaken..."
"That lofty title of Young Sect Master of the Cloud Mist Sect is nothing more than the title of a useless person in my eyes..."
"Don't think your identity is noble, right?"
"As you are now, you don't even qualify to be my servant..."
Hearing Xiao Yi's words, Nalan Yanran's mouth couldn't help but twitch slightly.
Xiao Yi's words were like sharp blades piercing Nalan Yanran's heart.
Ever since she joined the Cloud Mist Sect, Nalan Yanran had harbored a sense of pride!
She believed herself to be the Young Sect Master of the Cloud Mist Sect, possessing outstanding talent, viewing everyone as inferior, and believing no one was worthy of her.
Now, after only three years, the person she once looked down upon had become a towering peak.
The identity, talent, and strength she was so proud of were now crumbling before Xiao Yi!
After all, on the Fighting Qi Continent, strength speaks, and the strong are respected!
At this moment, Nalan Yanran's psychological defenses completely collapsed, just like a frog in a well viewing the moon, or a mayfly seeing the blue sky.
Immediately, Xiao Yi slowly landed, and spoke softly again:
"Enough is enough..."
"It's not worth saying too much to you filthy people..."
"The Cloud Mist Sect shall be removed from the Fighting Qi Continent starting today..."
As Xiao Yi's voice fell, he was seen standing in place, slowly raising his hand and casually clenching it.
An invisible power instantly erupted from his palm, sweeping across the entire Cloud Mist Sect.
And the next second, all the Disciples of the Cloud Mist Sect who were Great Dou Masters or above were instantly affected by that power.
They all exploded and died, instantly turning into ashes and dissipating into the Void Realm.
In just the space of a single breath, the Cloud Mist Sect, known as the number one Sect in the Jia Ma Empire, was ruined.
Excluding Yun Yun and Nalan Yanran, everyone else who was a Great Dou Master or above perished.
The Cloud Mist Sect was completely destroyed.
Witnessing this scene, Jia Xingtian couldn't help but gasp.
He hadn't expected Xiao Yi's strength to be so Heaven-Defying, nor his methods to be so ruthless!
At this moment, Jia Xingtian only hoped that Xiao Yi had no designs on the Imperial Family; otherwise,
currently, no one in the Jia Ma Empire could resist Xiao Yi.
The next second, Xiao Yi looked down at the already numb Nalan Yanran and Yun Yun, and spoke in a low voice:
"As for the two of you, killing you directly would be letting you off too easily..."
"Today, I will cripple your Cultivation, and you shall spend the rest of your lives regretting it within this ruined Sect gate..."
As Xiao Yi's voice fell, he was seen gently waving his fingertip, and a streak of red Qi instantly flew out from it.
It transformed into two streaks of Qi in the air, surging toward the bodies of Yun Yun and Nalan Yanran respectively!
The moment that Qi entered their bodies, a powerful force instantly erupted!
It violently impacted every single one of the Meridians in their bodies.
Yun Yun and Nalan Yanran clearly could not withstand such agony, and both cried out in pain.
Streaks of light surged from the surface of their bodies, and their internal Meridians were instantly shattered completely.
The Qi within their bodies immediately vanished entirely, reverting them back to ordinary people.
Moreover, they were cripples who could never Cultivate again... Seeing the fate of these two, Xiao Yan's expression was solemn, but he did not speak.
After all, the current Xiao Yan and Yun Yun did not have much involvement, only having met once.
Furthermore, if Xiao Yi had not been present today to kill Yun Shan, then Xiao Yan himself would have suffered this fate.
"The two of you shall remain here and regret for the rest of your lives..."
"I won't kill you today; how long you live depends on your own destiny..."
Xiao Yi spoke softly.
He then coldly scanned his surroundings: "Cloud Mist Sect!"
"As of today, cease to exist!"
"The remaining Cloud Mist Sect Disciples, leave within ten breaths, or die!"
As Xiao Yi's voice fell, the remaining Disciples who were Dou Master or Dou Practitioner level dared not stay, immediately standing up and fleeing.
Xiao Yi disdained taking action against these weaklings.
After all, if these remaining people had committed heinous acts before, now that they lacked the backing of the Cloud Mist Sect,
their enemies would naturally come seeking revenge.
If they had no enemies, then it meant their fate was such.
At this moment, Nalan Jie, standing on the high platform, saw Nalan Yanran ultimately meet such a fate.
He could only let out sigh after sigh.
After all, Nalan Jie lacked the strength and the courage to step forward and protect Nalan Yanran.
Seeing the arrogant Cloud Mist Sect wiped out in just a moment,
Jia Xingtian and the others, whose original intention today was merely to watch the competition between Xiao Yan and Nalan Yanran, dared not linger any longer.
Without the slightest hesitation, they immediately left the area.
Only Hai Bodong remained.
Xiao Yan, meanwhile, walked up with a smile: "Brother Yi!"
"You are so strong now! Our Xiao Family can finally return to the Imperial Capital!"
Xiao Yi nodded with a smile: "Little Yanzi, you're not bad either..."
"Being able to defeat Nalan Yanran... My current achievements are only due to luck..."
"Enough, let's return to the Xiao Family and catch up..."
"Having been away from home for many years, I wonder how the Xiao Family is doing now..."
Xiao Yan nodded upon hearing this.
After all, Xiao Yan hadn't been home for a long time, and honestly, he missed it a bit.
At this moment, Hai Bodong slowly walked forward, looking at Xiao Yan and speaking softly: "Xiao Yan..."
"I have fulfilled the promise I made to you, regarding that Medicinal Pill..."
Xiao Yan looked at Hai Bodong and replied:
"Thank you, Elder Hai, for your protection over the past year..."
"Please rest assured, Elder Hai, this junior will absolutely not go back on his word regarding the spirit revival purple pill I promised you..."
Xiao Yi also turned his head at this moment and spoke to Hai Bodong:
"Elder Hai, I have already noted your righteous action just now..."
"Facing a Dou Zong like Yun Shan, yet still stepping forward without fear of the consequences—such courage is truly admirable..."
"I must also thank you for your help to Xiao Yan..."
"I will personally deliver the spirit revival purple pill that Xiao Yan promised you to your hands within the next few days..."
"Furthermore, I will help you advance to Dou Zong!"
Hearing Xiao Yi's words, Hai Bodong's heart couldn't help but tremble slightly.
Hai Bodong was secretly delighted, because he knew he had gambled correctly this time...
