Peerless Taoist

All the members of the Xiao Family shivered.    

They suddenly realized that Lu Yu was not joking with them.    

Ever since Lu Yu ascended the throne, everything he did was swift and decisive, regardless of the background of the other party.    

This was an emperor who had truly slaughtered his way out of the sea of blood and mountains of corpses. He had an iron fist and wouldn't care about anything else.    

"Your Majesty, we didn't know that such a thing happened. Everything was decided by Ancestor and Family Head."    

"Yeah, we are also victims. We don't want to see Second Miss get involved in such a thing."    

A few elders of the Xiao Family began to defend themselves. When the other members of the Xiao Family saw this, they also responded.    

"Do you all think that Zhen is that easy to deceive?" Lu Yu's eyes were cold as he swept his gaze in all directions.    

He could already tell that the bodies of these Xiao Family members were more or less related to ghosts.    

It was impossible that no one knew that Xiao Ling'er had been possessed by the Ancient Hell and became its puppet.    

However, many people were unwilling to say it.    

When a benefit was satisfied with the needs of the vast majority of people, the sacrifice of an individual was insignificant.    

Greed, evil, selfish desires... All of these were hidden under that hypocritical face, making one nauseous.    

"Since Xiao Tianyuan and Xiao are both dead, you will pay for this."    

Lu Yu waved his hand gently.    

The surrounding Great Qin Imperial Guards rushed in and held down all of the Xiao family members.    

"Not good, Tyrant is really going to attack!"    

"Kill his way out and escape from Great Qin!"    

The Xiao family members present immediately realized that things were not looking good.    

Their bodies gave off cold Yin Qi, and they immediately attracted the ghosts and prepared to fight back.    

Lu Yu had seen everything. He took a step forward and shouted, "Whoever dares to possess your body, die!"    

The supreme Qi that was above all the immortals in the nine heavens suddenly descended upon the heads of the Xiao Family. The souls of the ghosts that were ready to possess their bodies turned into wisps of black smoke that were filled with screams and left their bodies one after another.    

These souls of the ghosts felt a kind of natural enemy attacking them.    

The pressure that Lu Yu gave them made them feel fear. Not to mention possessing their bodies, they wouldn't even be willing to stay here for another fifteen minutes.    

As these ghost spirits dispersed, countless Xiao Family members felt an unprecedented weakness as they collapsed onto the ground.    

This was the drawback of attracting these Yin Ghosts to possess their bodies.    

All of their strength came from the Yin Ghosts that had possessed them. Now that these Yin Ghosts had dispersed, they had lost their source of strength, and even their current strength was far from what it had been before.    

"No... How could this be? The power that we possess comes from the ancient inheritance."    

Many people were unwilling to accept this result, and they let out ear-piercing screams.    

Back then, when the Ancient Hell appeared in the Xiao Family, they had personally told the Xiao Family about its origins.    

An ancient existence that had been passed down from the Ancient Era had obtained the trust of most people in the Xiao Family, and it had even been treated as a myth by many members of the Xiao Family.    

Now, the legend had been destroyed.    

They saw an invincible attitude from Lu Yu.    

"Your Majesty, we know our mistake. We, the Xiao family, are willing to contribute all our properties to Your Majesty." At this point, all the elders of the Xiao Family finally gave in and started to beg for mercy from Lu Yu.    

In the end, wealth was not as important as their own lives.
