“Father, Mother!” Yang Xiaotian called out with a trembling voice.

His hands and feet felt cold as if he were a child without any direction.

He had lost his way.

He couldn’t imagine how dark his world would become if something happened to his parents.

Just as Yang Xiaotian panicked, upon hearing his voice, a large group of people walked out from the courtyard.

It was Yang Chao, Huang Ying, Wu Qi, Luo Qing, and others.

Seeing Yang Chao and Huang Ying in an instant, Yang Xiaotian felt as if light had returned to the world, and he rushed over.

“Father, Mother, are you…” Yang Xiaotian choked up.

“We are fine,” Yang Chao choked up as well, and for the first time, he and Huang Ying held Yang Xiaotian tightly in their embrace.

The family held each other tightly.

Just now, Yang Xiaotian’s hands and feet were cold, but now they finally warmed up.

He vigorously felt the warmth of his family.

After a long while, Yang Xiaotian finally asked Wu Qi, Luo Qing, and others what had happened.

“It was yesterday during the day when suddenly a group of people came and burst into the manor. Without a word, they began killing anyone they saw,” Luo Qing said hoarsely: “At that time, the manor lord, the lady, and we all had gone out.”

Fortunately, they were out; otherwise, Yang Chao and Huang Ying might already…

Thinking of this, Luo Qing shuddered with fear.

Wu Qi, Liu An, Liao Kun, and the others were also terrified.

They all knew how important Yang Chao and Huang Ying were to their young master.

“How many died?” Yang Xiaotian took a deep breath and asked.

Luo Qing lowered his head and said, “Over three hundred people.”

Over three hundred people!

Yang Xiaotian clenched his fists, his eyes full of murderous intent.

In the past two years, he had used numerous elixirs to cultivate his subordinates. There were just over a thousand people in total, and now, more than three hundred had died at once.

“Who were they? What strength did they have?” Yang Xiaotian asked with an icy voice.

“They all wore masks, and each of them was very strong, should all be at the Martial Emperor realm,” Liu An quickly said: “There were nineteen of them in total.”

Nineteen Martial Emperors!

Yang Xiaotian felt his heart sink.

Who was it?

Was it Wang Zhou from the Empire Pharmacist Hall who had sent them?

Or was it Zhu Xuan from the Sky-Stepping Sect?

Or had the Maha Divine Sect already found out that Zhang Hao, Chen Lingyun, and the other four died by his hand?

Since the attackers were all Martial Emperors, the enemy must have known that he and the Black Flood Dragon King were not in the manor; otherwise, they would not have dared to court death.

Could it be Zhu Xuan?

After all, Zhu Xuan knew he was in the Thunder God Cave.

But, he had appeared in the Withered Stone Ridge of the Unparalleled Emperor Kingdom, and many family sect masters had seen him, too.

“Use all means to find out, search for them! Find out who they were sent by!” Yang Xiaotian said word by word to Luo Qing.

“Understood, young master, rest assured,” Luo Qing nodded solemnly.

After that, all Yang Xiaotian could do was to have everyone start repairing the manor.

Looking at the manor, chopped in half and destroyed beyond recognition, Yang Xiaotian couldn’t help but seethe with anger.

Night fell.

The night was quiet and still.

Yang Xiaotian sat cross-legged on the Cold Jade Bed, taking out one Innate Sword Spirit.

After obtaining two Innate Sword Spirits in the Thunder God Cave, Yang Xiaotian still hadn’t refined them. Today, he planned to refine one of them first.

Both Innate Sword Spirits were of high quality, just as exceptional as the thunder-attributed one he had previously refined.

Previously, after he had refined the thunder-attributed Innate Sword Spirit, he managed to bring the Skywalking Thousand Swords, the Sword of Slaughter, and the Immortal Sword Technique to the peak of perfection.

Together with the Myriad Aspects Sword Technique and the Shocking Heaven Sword Art, now he had mastered five Supreme Divine Powers to the level of Summit Mastery.

As long as he brought five more Supreme Divine Powers to Summit Mastery, his Golden Core formation in the future would at least be of the highest quality.

In the blink of an eye, half a month passed.

During this half-month, Yang Xiaotian had completely refined the two thunder-attributed Innate Sword Spirits.

As he predicted, after refining the two Sword Spirits, he had six more sword-based Supreme Divine Powers that reached the realm of Summit Mastery.

Adding the previous five, that made it eleven!

To condense a supreme Golden Core, one needed at least ten Supreme Divine Powers to reach Summit Mastery, and now, he already had eleven.

After the breakthrough to Summit Mastery with the eleven Supreme Divine Powers, Yang Xiaotian somewhat relaxed.

As long as he found six more exceptional Innate Sword Spirits, he could hope to condense the strongest supreme Golden Core.

After refining the two exceptional Innate Sword Spirits and comprehending the Sword Intent within them, Yang Xiaotian once again condensed two Nine-Colored Sword Hearts.

Now, he had seven Nine-Colored Sword Hearts!

“Seven,” Yang Xiaotian murmured.

According to what Fan Riquan previously said, seven Sword Hearts were already rare in this generation.

If You Yi from the Unparalleled Academy, who had the Innate Sword Heart and the Five Elements Sword Body, still had only five Sword Hearts, then he, Yang Xiaotian, had far surpassed that You Yi.

However, even though seven Sword Hearts were rare in this generation, Yang Xiaotian’s goal was to have more than ten.

His goal was to be truly unique throughout the ages, not just a rarity in the current times.

During this half-month, aside from refining the two Sword Spirits, Yang Xiaotian focused on practicing Thunderclap Nine Heavens.

After half a month of intense practice, Thunderclap Nine Heavens had been cultivated up to the seventh strike.

However, like the Heaven-Penetrating Sword Technique, there were forty-nine strikes in total, and the further he went, the harder it became to practice, making it impossible to master in a short period.

One day, while Yang Xiaotian was practicing the eighth strike of Thunderclap Nine Heavens, Luo Qing walked in looking exceedingly excited, “Young Master, there’s incredibly good news! There’s information about the sixfold Heavenly Tribulation Thunder Water!”

He then added, “This time it’s for real!”

“The Xueluo Commerce Assembly of the Empire is holding an auction in the middle of next month, and they are auctioning off sixfold Heavenly Tribulation Thunder Water!”

Yang Xiaotian, upon hearing this, was greatly exhilarated, “Xueluo Commerce Assembly is auctioning sixfold Heavenly Tribulation Thunder Water!”

The Xueluo Commerce Assembly, he knew, was not only the largest in the Divine Dragon Empire but also one of the largest in the surrounding empires, with branches in all neighboring nations.

“Yes, not only are they auctioning off the sixfold Heavenly Tribulation Thunder Water, but they’re also auctioning Supreme Divine Powers from ancient sects as well as ultimate-grade Nine Suns Longevity Pills,” Luo Qing excitedly listed a dozen other rare treasures.

“Are they auctioning off Innate Fine Iron?” asked Yang Xiaotian.

He already had four layers of Tribulation Thunder Water. All that was missing was Innate Fine Iron to repair the Burying Heaven Sword, the top-ranked Heavenly Sword.

Luo Qing shook his head, “There’s no Innate Fine Iron in this auction.”

Yang Xiaotian nodded; he would have to look for the Innate Fine Iron later.

An auction in the middle of next month?

That left him one month of time.

“By the way, Young Master, there’s another major piece of news, the Empire Pharmacist Hall is organizing the Empire Alchemy Contest,” Luo Qing added.

“The Empire Alchemy Contest!” Yang Xiaotian was greatly surprised.

“Yes,” Luo Qing said, “it is said that the Grand Hall Master of the Medicine Hall decided on the spur of the moment. The rewards are extremely astonishing, with the first prize even being the Earth Flame!”

“Earth Flame!” Yang Xiaotian was shocked.

The Earth Flame was ranked first on the Abnormal Fire List!

Right below the Divine Flame.

Yang Xiaotian had not expected that the Grand Master of Pharmacists would be willing to put up the Earth Flame as a reward.

“Some people are also saying that the Grand Hall Master wishes to select a successor through this contest,” said Luo Qing.
