41: A ruthless sword kills ruthless people

Everyone stared at the Second Elder with bewildered expressions.

They never expected him to do something so vile.

The child was pleading for him.

Yet he used the child as a hostage.

Yang Yi's eyes slowly opened.

He sneered and said to everyone:

"This is the person you want to save."

"Do you see what kind of person he is?"

An Elder in the crowd sighed.

"We don't want to save him."

"We want to save others."

"Killing him is one thing.

"Can you let the others go?"

Yang Yi shook his head.

"No."

"What I've said will not change."

"Especially regarding this matter."

"If you think I'm wrong,"

"I'll give you a choice now."

"Either leave,"

"or continue to follow me."

Another choice.

This time, no one chose to betray Yang Yi again.

Because those who chose to betray Yang Yi

were about to lose their lives.

Seeing that no one chose to leave,

Yang Yi said coldly:

"If you still wish to remain in the Yang family,"

"then exit this courtyard."

"Leave the rest to Yang Ming."

Everyone took a deep look at the Second Elder and the people behind him

and chose to leave.

There were more than thirty people who followed the Second Elder.

There were many people in the Yang family.

However, not many people could come to this courtyard.

Those who could come were not of simple status.

So, even though there were only more than thirty people,

these thirty-plus people could be said to be the backbone of the Yang family.

Their deaths

would definitely have a huge impact on the entire Yang family.

Yang Yi could not care less now.

He had to rectify the Family's conduct.

He had to make the Yang family turn over a new leaf.

Otherwise, the Yang family would ultimately be an Adou that couldn't be helped up.

Eventually,

it would drag him into eternal damnation.

To change this situation,

he took a desperate risk.

"Kill."

Two simple words,

as if he was talking about eating.

Yang Ming stared at the Second Elder holding the child.

He coldly told him to put the child down,

and have a fair and just fight.

It wouldn't be in vain that he was the Second Elder of the Yang family.

Even in death, he should die with backbone,

instead of trading a child's life for his own.

The Second Elder glanced at the rather cute child in his arms.

He chuckled chillingly.

"I can give you the child,"

"but I want to leave the Yang family."

As soon as he finished speaking,

Yang Yi's gaze suddenly fell on him like lightning,

scaring him into a shiver.

"You are not qualified to make demands."

"I order you to release the child."

"If you don't release him within three seconds,"

"I will personally act."

The Second Elder sneered inwardly.

What if you act personally?

The child is in my hands.

Even if your strength is greater than mine,

can you kill me instantly?

As long as you give me a moment's chance,

I can kill this child.

Even if I die,

I can drag someone down with me.

But what about you?

If you disregard the child's safety

and kill me,

it will create a bad impression on the Yang family.

He was sure Yang Yi wouldn't dare to act.

His attitude was extremely vile.

"Come, come, come."

"I can't wait."

"Go ahead and kill me."

"I really want to die."

"Living with you people is worse than death."

As he spoke,

he heavily patted the child's shoulder.

The child cried out in pain, a heart-wrenching wail

that tugged at many people's hearts.

Yang Yi watched the Second Elder indifferently,

his expression stern.

He slowly gripped the Seven Injury Divine Sword in his hand.

The moment his sword struck,

the Second Elder's right arm also rose,

his large hand directly pressing on the child's head.

He chuckled coldly.

"Come on."

"As long as your sword points at me,"

"I'll kill him with one palm strike."

"Let's see whose sword is faster, yours or my hand."

The other members of the Yang family were extremely nervous.

Especially the child's mother,

who was even more afraid that the Second Elder would harm the child.

She rushed to Yang Yi's front in a hurry,

blocking Yang Yi.

"Patriarch, you cannot act!

"If you act, the child's life will be gone."

Yang Yi frowned slightly.

He glanced at Yang Ming beside him.

Yang Ming understood Yang Yi's meaning.

He forcibly pulled the child's mother aside.

And at this moment,

Yang Yi's sword suddenly struck.

Everyone saw the sword in Yang Yi's hand fly out.

A sword light, accompanied by the sound of tearing air,

instantly struck the Second Elder's head.

The Second Elder's head instantly turned into a bloody mist.

His hand was still pressed on the child's head,

but he no longer had the strength to press down.

As the sword pierced his head,

Yang Yi also arrived in front of the child.

He gently grabbed the child's clothes,

and picked him up from the embrace of the dead Second Elder, placing him back on the ground.

He handed him to the still crying mother of the child.

The mother trembled as she held her child,

still crying.

"Patriarch, don't act, don't..."

Seeing her child safe and sound in her arms,

her words stopped abruptly.

The other group of people who followed the Second Elder

had just held onto a last glimmer of hope.

However, now,

their last hope was also shattered.

They were dispirited.

Some were so scared that they collapsed to the ground.

Some could no longer control their bodies,

and yellow liquid flowed from their feet.

Yang Yi retrieved the Seven Injury Divine Sword.

He silently looked at the other three outsiders who were sitting in chairs with little reaction,

his expression cold.

Feeling the killing intent in Yang Yi's eyes,

one of them suddenly stood up.

"You dare to kill us?

"We are..."

Before he could finish stating his identity,

Yang Yi's Seven Injury Divine Sword had already cut across his neck,

and the other two also died on the spot.

The three strongest individuals were killed instantly.

The remaining people

no longer needed Yang Yi to act.

Yang Yi silently turned and walked out.

Yang Ming led the five children.

and slowly walked towards the Yang family members.

Yang Yi left the courtyard.

He closed the door behind him.

The moment the door closed,

cries and sounds of fighting came from the courtyard.

In a moment,

the courtyard fell into a deadly silence.

Yang Ming came out with a few children.

The weapons in his hands were stained with blood.

There were also many bloodstains on his body.

However, the five children behind him

were spotless.

"The rest is up to you."

Yang Yi said to Yang Ming.

Yang Ming nodded,

his expression mournful.

Just then,

the System's voice sounded.

"Ding!"

"Congratulations on completing the mission and receiving an investment of 10."

After this incident,

most of the parasites in the Yang family were cleared out.

The entire Yang family's appearance was also renewed.

A few days later,

Yang Yi gathered the Family members

and announced the establishment of the Zhongyi Hall within the Yang family.

Those who entered the Zhongyi Hall

could obtain most of the Yang family's resources

and receive personal guidance from Yang Yi.

Currently,

only the five children were eligible to enter the Zhongyi Hall.

Yang Ming was not qualified to enter either.
