I Fabricated the Techniques, but my disciple really mastered them?

The group of Protectors laid down their weapons one after another.

Chief Chen and the others were equally dumbstruck.

This was the government, not some heretics from the cult of the Heavenly Mother. Resisting them would be tantamount to committing treason, a grave crime punishable by the slaughter of one s entire family.

Xu Junhe supported his wife, Madam Xu, as they stepped forward, calmly looking at the governor of Donghe County. Just a short while ago, they had been sharing drinks and stories. But now, they were treated ruthishly.

Such was the ruthlessness of the struggle for the crown prince’s throne. “Accusations of collusion with the cult of the Heavenly Mother? Why this sudden accusation?”

Xu Junhe looked at the county governor, sighing:

Charges of collusion with the cult of the Heavenly Mother were extremely serious and grave, enough to annihilate the entire Xu Family and his father-in-law’s family if found guilty.

The Donghe County governor remained cold, delivering with indifference, “My office is responsible for examining the Xu Family, and whether there exist ties to the cult of the Heavenly Mother. These matters will naturally be determined through the judicial process.”

Xu Junhe remained silent.

The lack of a definitive sentence for his supposed collusion with the cult of the Heavenly Mother was perhaps to keep him pondering over whether to commit the act. Once committed, there would be no turning back.

This would indeed be a sin that leads to the extermination of his entire family. If convicted on other charges, perhaps they would be exiled and not executed. All of this was beyond the control of a mere merchant. His only hope was that his father-in-law in the capital city would have the influence to adjust the outcome of the case.

“Take them away!”

At the wave of the Donghe County governor s hand, two soldiers, carrying shackles, moved forward, prepared to arrest Xu Junhe and his wife. A swarm of soldiers stormed in with the intention to seize the Xu family’s affairs.

As the richest man in Donghe County, with vast wealth, who wouldn’t be envious?

Now, with this giant teetering on the brink of collapse, countless hungry wolves were bound to swarm in for a share.

Suddenly, a roar of anger resounded like thunder.

“Who dares to investigate my family’s affairs!”

The face of Madam Xu changed drastically, exclaiming, “Yan’er!”

Her face lost all color in an instant. Why had he come back at a time like this?’ Boom!

Just then, two fiery red dragons, bringing with them a terrifyingly blazing force, swooped down from mid-air. Like a force of nature, they swept across the amassed officials awaiting to seize the Xu Family’s affairs.

In an instant, all the soldiers were knocked flying, landing hard on the floor, unable to climb back up.

The soldiers attempting to arrest Xu Junhe and his wife with their shackles were swept into the air by the looming dragons. In mid-air, they exploded into a burst of searing heat, resembling a terrifying flame.

The soldiers turned into charred corpses, falling on the heads of the other soldiers.

A young man, enveloped in scorching energy, descended from the sky, landing in front of Xu Junhe and his wife, his awe-inspiring valour on full display. Silence!

The Donghe County governor’s body was trembling, his eyes filled with shock.

The soldiers lay on the ground, shivering in fear.

The Xu Family’s protectors were all stupefied, their mouths hanging open, eyes wide, as they stared at young Yan, who had descended from the sky.

Chief Chen kept swallowing, beads of sweat trickling down his forehead. His eyes wide open, his mind drew a blank.

Xu Yan?

The idiot son of Xu Junhe?

How can this be possible?

Most stunned of all were Xu Junhe and his wife, as they watched Xu Yan descend from the sky, especially the two enormous terrifying dragons that scattered all of rhe soldiers. It was beyond rhe realms of human capability. Their son had always been searching for great martial artists hidden from the world, wanting to learn the mighty martial arts from the legends and stories. Could it be that he had truly succeeded in his training?

Xu Yan was furious. He had shown restraint earlier. If he hadn’t, those soldiers would have been annihilated by one strike, their corpses strewn about.

This was his family home, with his mother present. If he dirtied this household, it might scare her. Thus, he had held back.
