Battle Through The Heavens : I Am The Thunder Emperor

Chapter 47: The Xiao Family's Twin Crazies?

With a cold glance at Liu Xi and Jia Lie Ao, Mo Yu turned to the blushing Xiao Yu, whose face was red with shame and anger. His tone softened, "Don't worry, I'm here."

This was the first time Xiao Yu had seen Mo Yu so dominant, and she was clearly taken aback. Her face turned even redder as she stammered, "I was just accompanying Xun'er. I didn't expect to run into these scoundrels."

Mo Yu nodded and turned to Xun'er, "Are you okay?"

Xun'er smiled gently, "I'm fine, thanks to you, Cousin Mo Yu."

Before she could finish, Mo Yu's voice turned cold again, "Cripple anyone who touched our Xiao family members!"

With that, a young man holding an iron rod appeared, followed by dozens of similarly armed men. As soon as he finished speaking, the men behind him charged at the Jia Lie family's thugs with fierce smiles.

"Brother Xiao Yan!" Xun'er's face lit up as she ran towards the black-clad youth.

Mo Yu and Xiao Yu exchanged a look. Compared to the passionate reunion of the other couple, their relationship had always been more reserved. However, this incident had brought them closer.

"Thanks for coming, Cousin Mo Yu," Xiao Yan said after making sure Xun'er was safe.

"I only got here a bit earlier than you," Mo Yu replied with a light smile.

"Hmph, the Xiao family's twin dragons finally show up!" Jia Lie Ao spat angrily.

"Who are they?" Liu Xi asked coldly, unable to stand the sight of the two beautiful girls with the youths.

"They're the Xiao family's twin dragons. The one in black is Xiao Yan, and the one in green is Mo Yu, the alchemist," Jia Lie Ao explained with a sinister smile.

"Oh, so he's the so-called trashy alchemist," Liu Xi sneered.

Xiao Yu's face flushed with anger. Seeing Mo Yu insulted infuriated her, as he had become the most important person in her heart. Xiao Yan and Xun'er also looked displeased. The Thunderfire Beads had played a significant role in their recent victories over the Jia Lie family, and insulting Mo Yu was insulting the Xiao family.

Mo Yu gently patted Xiao Yu's shoulder and looked calmly at Liu Xi, "You seem to despise alchemists. Very well, I accept your challenge."

Liu Xi was momentarily stunned, then a sinister smile spread across his face, "You brought this on yourself."

The crowd was shocked. Despite Mo Yu's talent, the gap in their levels was undeniable.

Seeing the stunned expressions, Jia Lie Ao turned his anger toward Xiao Yan, "I heard you've been making progress, Xiao Yan. How about a challenge? Let's see if you've really shed your title of 'waste'."

The crowd's opinion of the Jia Lie family's shamelessness deepened. Using their higher level to bully the younger generation was disgraceful.

Despite knowing Xiao Yan's challenge seemed unfair, the crowd watched in amazement as the black-clad youth accepted, "I accept your challenge."

The crowd was in an uproar. First, Mo Yu accepted a challenge from a six-star Dou Zhe, and now Xiao Yan accepted a challenge from a three-star Dou Zhe. Had the Xiao family's twin dragons gone mad?

Xiao Yu's face darkened. She didn't know Mo Yu's exact strength but knew he wasn't simple. However, Xiao Yan had only been an eight-star Dou Zhi Qi a few months ago. Where did his confidence come from?

"Cousin Xiao Yan, you seem to have improved a lot recently," Mo Yu remarked calmly.

"Not as much as you, Cousin Mo Yu," Xiao Yan replied, inspired by Mo Yu's fearlessness.

Seeing the relaxed demeanor of their opponents, Jia Lie Ao and Liu Xi exchanged a vicious glance. They had long plotted to cripple Mo Yu and now had a chance to take down both him and Xiao Yan.

A family's future depended on its young blood. If the Xiao family's twin dragons were crippled, the Xiao family would be finished.
