A surge of immense black combat energy continuously flowed into the Broken Void Crossbow. The energy fluctuations stirred the surrounding air, producing a series of low, hoarse howls. With this influx of power, the demon core embedded in the crossbow began to glow faintly. Threads of flickering lightning coiled and twisted around it, flowing unpredictably.

The twisted, flashing lightning grew denser and more intense, gradually enveloping the entire crossbow. From a distance, it looked as if someone was holding a ball of lightning. Moments later, a thick, black spear of combat energy over ten feet long condensed within the crossbow’s slot. Its imposing aura was undeniable. Once formed, countless streaks of lightning slithered around it like living serpents, with bolts of light surging into the ebony spear itself, resembling lightning flashing within dark storm clouds. A terrifying power slowly began to manifest.

Holding the crossbow, Su Yi’s face darkened, his brow furrowing slightly. He scoffed coldly, “I didn’t expect this Broken Void Crossbow to be so inefficient. It’s no match for me using pure combat energy directly.”

With a slight drop of his hand, the black spear crackling with lightning immediately aimed toward the location of the Aubin family below. Su Yi’s eyes narrowed sharply. His right hand trembled slightly, and with a few deep rumbles, the spear grew larger and longer. The demon core on the crossbow crackled with lightning, emitting faint cracking sounds.

“Break it for me!”

At Su Yi’s stern command, the black spear wrapped in lightning shot forth like an arrow released from a bowstring, carrying immense pressure and a piercing sonic boom. With a thunderous roar, it tore through the Aubin residence!

Boom! Boom!

Several deafening explosions erupted in the quiet night sky, rising sharply. Thick dust billowed up like a massive mushroom cloud, mixed with countless fragments and stones. Like cannonballs, these sharp debris whistled wildly in all directions, smashing everything in their path. Large chunks of rubble rained down with heavy, unpleasant crashes. Giant cracks radiated outward from the mushroom cloud’s center, ravaging the surroundings.

At the same time, piercing screams echoed endlessly from within the Aubin estate. Many ran about like madmen, desperate to find escape routes. Yet fallen stone walls and flying debris instantly crushed some, splattering blood everywhere. A few strong individuals fiercely unleashed their combat energy to support themselves and fled collapsing buildings, but ultimately, they were overwhelmed by the flying stones and perished, exhausted and battered.

After a short while, the screams and shouts gradually subsided. The dust slowly cleared, revealing ruins resembling a wasteland of shattered walls and broken stones. Most of the Aubin family’s houses were leveled by the blow. The few remaining structures were severely damaged, a chaotic scene of rubble and debris.

Su Yi hovered in the night sky, a sinister smile curling his lips. With a slight tremble, his figure vanished into the darkness. Naturally, this commotion awakened many. Forces from all sides sent people to investigate, but upon arriving, they were stunned speechless by the devastation. Such terrifying destructive power— even seasoned Douluo experts would be momentarily dumbfounded upon witnessing this!

“What the hell?! What happened here? I just woke up, and the Aubin estate looks like this. Who the hell is so vicious?!”

“Yeah, I thought it was an earthquake at first! Turns out the mighty Aubin family got blasted to pieces! But there shouldn’t be any such powerful people in Changling City. Could it be that the Aubins did something bad and pissed off some unknown mighty figure seeking revenge?”

“Hey, what if… it’s Meiya?”

As the onlookers whispered among themselves, a sudden loud crash echoed from the half-collapsed main hall of the Aubin estate. Several thick pillars of combat energy burst forth, shattering the stones pinning them down. Figures leapt out immediately, quickly gathering in a safe area. It was Aubin Shan and several elders of the Aubin family.

Staring at the ruined scene before him, Aubin Shan’s gaze went blank, as if unable to believe what he saw. After a long moment, he let out a heart-rending roar of rage.

“Who did this?!!”

...

While Aubin Shan howled outside, Su Yi’s figure appeared inside a house still lit by lamplight. According to his senses, this room held the strongest aura of medicinal herbs. Walking a few steps, he saw a young man lying motionless among the herbs. The youth seemed awakened by the earlier explosion and, upon seeing Su Yi, his face immediately showed terror. He struggled weakly but could not move—this was none other than the crippled Aubin Yu.

Ignoring Aubin Yu, Su Yi’s face grew cold. With a flick of his sleeve, he released a strange black mist that corroded and absorbed all the medicinal herbs. Only after finishing this did he turn his chilling gaze back to Aubin Yu.

“Su Yi... what do you want?!”

Shaken by the eerie events moments ago and faced with Su Yi’s grim and murderous aura, fear overwhelmed Aubin Yu’s hatred. His voice trembled as he stammered.

Su Yi glanced at him coldly, as if looking at an insignificant insect. His eyes flashed with disgust and cruelty. Without a word, he raised and lowered his palm. With a sudden pop, Aubin Yu’s head exploded like a watermelon, blood spraying everywhere!

At that moment, Aubin Shan and several elders arrived. As soon as Aubin Shan stepped into the room, he saw his son’s shattered head and instantly felt rage that made his eyes bloodshot. He howled furiously:

“Su Yi, you little bastard! I’ll tear you to pieces!”

With this murderous shout, Aubin Shan’s combat energy erupted like a volcano. His unleashed energy roared and surged, gathering into his right palm to form a terrifying blade of combat energy.

“Die!”

Aubin Shan glared fiercely at Su Yi, his face twisted with rage as if he wanted to devour him. His palm swung down violently. The blade of energy expanded explosively, shining blindingly like a thousand suns descending from the sky, accompanied by a fearsome sonic boom as it slashed toward Su Yi’s face.

“Wind-Shattering Gale!”

Several elders nearby shouted and, disregarding the overwhelming odds, unleashed their most powerful Dou techniques. Brilliant pillars of combat energy blasted straight toward Su Yi’s chest.

The combined power of these Douluo experts unleashed profound Xuan-level Dou techniques, their momentum truly astonishing. The fierce wind cracked the ground and stones all around, producing endless creaks and crashes.

Yet Su Yi, standing at the storm’s eye, remained unmoved. A contemptuous, mocking smile crept across his dark face. Narrowing his eyes slightly, a dense black mist suddenly burst forth from his body, engulfing him completely.

The swirling blade of wind and the pillars of light slammed into the black mist with tremendous force.

The overwhelming energy struck the mist, but surprisingly, no explosion or sound followed. Instead, like a stone sinking into the sea, the energy was wholly absorbed and swallowed by the black mist. Silence followed; the mist churned restlessly like a venomous snake sizing up its prey.

Witnessing this bizarre scene, Aubin Shan and the elders’ expressions changed dramatically. Their eyes filled with disbelief, veins twitching uncontrollably. Their eyes flickered wildly, and they stood stunned, unsure how to react.

What was this? How could a lone eighteen-year-old boy so effortlessly nullify the combined attack of so many Douluo experts without a scratch? Even a Doulong-tier expert wouldn’t dare take such a blow lightly. In other words, no one in Changling City could withstand their united assault—except this boy.

Shaken to his core, Aubin Shan’s mind cleared. Suddenly, a new worry struck him. He had sent the great elder and three others to infiltrate the auction hall to kill Su Yi. But now they hadn’t returned, and Su Yi appeared here. What was going on? Could it be... Su Yi had killed them?

Before Aubin Shan and the others could react, Su Yi’s black mist trembled. Several dark pillars of combat energy shot out like lightning, striking the unprepared elders. Amidst muffled groans, they were blasted away, crashing into the walls with cracking sounds.

“Pfft!” Aubin Shan’s body slammed heavily onto the stones, scattering dust and debris as he coughed up blood. His face was pale with shock and fear.

No matter how unwilling he was to accept it, the evidence was undeniable. Having led the family for so many years and being a Douluo himself, he could not have missed the opponent’s true strength from their fight.

“Su Yi... is this really your doing?!” Aubin Shan’s pale face was streaked with blood at the mouth. Judging by Su Yi’s speed and force, his strength rivaled his own—something unimaginable!
