My wife who comes from a wealthy family
Chapter 820 - 821: Escape

Chapter 820: Chapter 821: Escape

Master Skeletal was struck as if by lightning, his face revealing an uncontainable fear!

This person clearly had overwhelming demonic energy, yet the Demon-Revealing Mirror failed to show it!

Master Skeletal now fully understood!

He was actually... the legendary dragon!

Within the demon race, the dragon clan held the highest authority!

As the leaders of the demon race, dragons occupied a supreme position—they were not demons in the traditional sense!

Thus, the Demon-Revealing Mirror could not reflect his true form!

"Since you know who I am, I’ll send you on your way!" Long Mie sneered coldly, his gaze flashing with murderous intent as he swung a claw heavily toward Master Skeletal.

"Dragon Burst Claw!"

Not good!

Master Skeletal’s expression changed drastically as he immediately activated his Gang Qi to defend himself.

Bang!

A dull sound resonated as Master Skeletal’s Gang Qi shattered in an instant. The Dragon Burst Claw, carrying a mountain-crushing force, slammed heavily into his body.

"Pfft!" Master Skeletal spat blood as his body fell heavily to the ground, his face pale and bloodless.

"Die!" Long Mie’s cold eyes radiated astonishing dragon might as he struck with a devastating palm.

This palm strike was so powerful that even a late-stage True Pill cultivator faced potential demise!

In this critical moment, Master Skeletal gritted his teeth and took out a purple talisman from his body. His face showed a look of deep reluctance.

This was his ultimate life-saving treasure!

The Hundred-Mile Talisman!

Once activated, it could teleport him a hundred miles instantly!

"Retreat!" Master Skeletal burned the talisman with his blood, and in an instant, his body flickered, disappearing into thin air!

Boom!

A terrifying sound erupted as a massive claw imprint appeared where Master Skeletal had originally been standing.

"Damn it, that ugly freak got away!" Long Mie raged.

Ye Wudao chimed in, "Long Mie, that freak is, after all, a late-stage True Pill cultivator! To kill one of their level requires at least two to three experts working together!"

Long Mie nodded as the discontent in his gaze began to dissipate.

Meanwhile, those from the Dongfang family who had witnessed Master Skeletal’s escape were trembling uncontrollably!

Especially Dongfang Xiao, whose face showed extreme fear!

Master Skeletal could flee!

But he could not!

"Thud!" With a loud noise, Dongfang Xiao dropped to his knees and kowtowed, begging, "Esteemed elder, I was wrong! Please grant mercy and spare the Dongfang family!"

"Spare you all?" Long Mie sneered in disdain. "If I hadn’t arrived in time, would your Dongfang family have spared my brothers?"

"Well..." Dongfang Xiao was mortified.

"Now I’ll destroy you lot!" Long Mie extended his hand, his five fingers brimming with immense power.

"Hold it!" Ye Wudao suddenly reached out and stopped Long Mie. "I have questions for the Dongfang family!"

Dongfang Xiao trembled as he stammered, "Y-Young Lord Ye, p-please ask..."

Long Mie swaggered, "Dongfang family, listen up. If you dare hide anything from us, I swear you’ll die a terrible death!"

"Is my mother and Yueli with your family?" Ye Wudao asked coldly.

"They are not..." Dongfang Xiao had just answered when Ye Wudao glanced coolly at Long Mie.

Long Mie immediately caught Ye Wudao’s intent and sneered, saying, "Dongfang family, prepare to feel my wrath!"

Long Mie unleashed a dragon palm strike, filled with devastating energy akin to an apocalyptic force.

Boom!

A thunderous sound erupted, and the Dongfang family’s grand hall instantly collapsed. Countless houses crumbled, and the death toll soared!

Dongfang Xiao screamed, "No, stop! Young Lord Ye, I can atone! Please don’t annihilate the Dongfang family!"

"Your Dongfang family is beyond redemption!" Ye Wudao replied coldly.

Watching his clan members perish en masse, Dongfang Xiao gritted his teeth in fury and yelled, "Ye! I know you won’t spare me! I, Dongfang Xiao, will take you all down with me!" Roaring angrily, Dongfang Xiao’s True Pill burst forth with dazzling light.

"Not good, this guy’s going to self-destruct!" Long Mie’s expression changed drastically.

The self-destruction of a mid-stage True Pill cultivator was immensely powerful, equivalent to a full-force strike from a late-stage True Pill expert!

BOOM!

An earth-shaking explosion reverberated as the entire Dongfang family estate erupted, the blast echoing hundreds of miles away!

"Is it over?" Ye Wudao opened his eyes slowly, only to find Long Mie standing in front of him.

"Damn it! That guy had guts, daring to self-destruct!" Long Mie sneered, his wounds already beginning to heal.

"Long Mie, are you alright?" Ye Wudao asked.

"What could possibly happen to me?" Long Mie grinned, flashing a toothy smile. "Haha, but you—having True Pill-level combat power so quickly—impressive!"

Ye Wudao shook his head and smiled faintly, "Not nearly enough."

"Alright, stop being modest!" Long Mie chuckled.

Ye Wudao gazed at the ruined Dongfang family estate, some of his anger dissipated.

"Let’s search for anything valuable in this place!" Ye Wudao suggested.

"Got it," Long Mie agreed.

Half an hour later.

Ye Wudao left the estate, wholly satisfied.

The Dongfang family’s foundation was exceptionally rich. Just their Spirit Crystals numbered sixty or seventy, not to mention the ordinary Spirit Stones, pills, and magical artifacts!

This battle had been overwhelmingly profitable for Ye Wudao!

Just as Ye Wudao and Long Mie departed the Dongfang estate, Zhao Qingtian and others approached with worried looks, asking, "Young Lord, are you alright?"

"The Dongfang estate suddenly experienced a massive explosion—what happened?"

Ye Wudao briefly recounted the events, leaving Zhao Qingtian and the others pale-faced with shock.

"Dongfang Xiao, that old scoundrel, actually self-destructed to take everyone down!"

"Crazy indeed..."

"Thank heavens for this elder!" Zhao Qingtian and the others bowed deeply to Long Mie in gratitude and respect.

Long Mie waved them off dismissively, with a carefree expression.

"Young Lord, has there been any news of the Young Lady?" Zhao Qingtian asked cautiously.

"None!" Ye Wudao shook his head.

"Now that the Dongfang family is annihilated, our next step is to find Master Skeletal to uncover the mastermind!" Long Mie declared.

"Master Skeletal is an elder of the Heavenly Corpse Sect and acts extraordinarily secretive. If he’s hiding within the sect, it’ll be tough to deal with him!" Zhao Qingtian said.

"We’ll wait for him to come out!" Ye Wudao replied.

"We can’t stay here for now! The destruction of the Dongfang family is a minor issue, but offending the Heavenly Corpse Sect could be extremely troublesome!" Long Mie frowned.

Ye Wudao nodded and asked, "Long Mie, do you have a good place in mind?"

"Haha, follow me—I’ll take you to a mysterious and spectacular place!" Long Mie grinned wickedly.
