After the Clear Sky Sect sealed its doors, the four single-attribute clans, in order to avoid the Spirit Hall's pursuit, all fled to the Star Luo Empire, with the exception of the Strength Clan.
This also indirectly indicated that Spirit Hall's influence in the Star Luo Empire was inferior to that of the Star Luo officials.
The Breaking Clan was in a much better situation than the Speed Clan; the Soul Breaking Spear was also a top-tier Tool Spirit on the Douluo Continent.
In fact, if not for Tang Chen of the Clear Sky Sect elevating the Clear Sky Hammer to the position of the number one Tool Spirit in the world, the Soul Breaking Spear would have had a real chance to contend with the Clear Sky Hammer.
Moreover, the Breaking Clan also possessed exquisite alchemy skills, so after relocating to the Star Luo Empire, with their martial prowess on one hand and alchemy on the other, the Breaking Clan quickly established a firm foothold in the Star Luo Empire and developed an extensive trade network.
Now, eight years later, the Breaking Clan, which suffered the most severe losses during Spirit Hall's pursuit, has largely recovered its vitality in all aspects except for the number of its clansmen.
Of course, the Breaking Clan was not without its troubles.
The city where the Breaking Clan resided was Tianya City, the location of the Wind Sword Sect, one of the Lower Four Sects.
As one of the Lower Four Sects, the Wind Sword Sect was powerful. As the saying goes, 'those in the same trade are enemies.' Both possessing powerful Tool Spirits, the Wind Sword Sect had enjoyed sole dominance in Tianya City, only for the Breaking Clan to suddenly interfere.
Who would be happy about that? If we don't suppress you now, should we wait until you recover your strength and then come to contend for influence with us?
The Breaking Clan was not like the Speed Clan; they genuinely had the strength to achieve this.
Yang Wudi, in particular, could rely on his extreme attack power to briefly contend with a Titled Douluo despite being a Spirit Douluo.
The Wind Sword Sect did not have a Titled Douluo, so with such a threatening Breaking Clan, who else would the Wind Sword Sect suppress if not them?
"Tianya City will be much harder to conquer than Yufeng City," Xu Yunxiao said slowly, looking at the intelligence in his hand, though his expression showed no trace of worry.
The people from the Lord Xie Soul Engineer Legion and the Fire Phoenix Soul Guidance Group around him also wore relaxed smiles, unfazed by the reputations of the Breaking Clan and the Lower Four Sects.
No matter how difficult, could it be harder than Moonjade City?
Xu Tianyang and his group were extremely fast. The sky had just darkened, and they had taken Yufeng City in less than half a cup of tea's time. By the time they arrived at Tianya City, the moon was high in the sky.
The people of the Star Luo Empire had no idea of the anomaly in Yufeng City.
Tianya City housed the Wind Sword Sect, one of the Lower Four Sects, and was renowned even among all cities within the Star Luo Empire. In the Star Luo Empire, besides the capital Star Luo City, Tianya City was also one of the top five largest cities.
Eight years ago, Yang Wudi led the Breaking Clan to settle here, adding another layer of vibrancy to Tianya City's prosperity.
"Father, the Breaking Clan is different from the Speed Clan. Besides being warlike, they are also extremely obsessed with alchemy. Perhaps we can leverage this," Xu Tianyang said slowly after a moment of contemplation, looking at the 'magnificent' Tianya City in the distance.
"You want to subdue them?" Xu Yunxiao asked with interest, stroking his chin.
He was also very interested in this proposal. The people of the Breaking Clan were all reckless fanatics. They pursued extreme offense, like walking a tightrope, and fighting them resulted in extremely high casualty rates.
However, if they were equipped with defensive spirit tools, they would transform into a sharp spearhead on the battlefield, directly piercing the enemy's vital points.
"Exactly!"
"It's worth a try!" After thinking it over, Xu Yunxiao nodded, approving Xu Tianyang's suggestion.
Xu Yunxiao was decisive in his actions. Having made up his mind, he immediately ordered the Lord Xie Soul Engineer Legion and the Fire Phoenix Soul Guidance Group to rest for one hour. If they did not send a message after one hour, the two Soul Guidance Groups would launch an attack immediately.
After making arrangements, Xu Yunxiao led Xu Tianyang, concealing their figures, and slowly made their way to a quiet alley in the west of the city.
Whether it was alchemy or concocting poisons, both largely required a quiet environment, so the Breaking Clan's residence was located in a secluded area of Tianya City.
At this moment, outside the mansion, Xu Tianyang and Xu Yunxiao observed the Yang Family residence. Compared to the Speed Clan, the Breaking Clan was much more opulent, using high-quality stone materials for the construction of their mansion.
"There are roughly over two hundred people, with only a hundred-plus auras containing a sharp sensation, which should be the direct descendants of the Breaking Clan. One aura is the strongest, no less powerful than Uncle Feng's."
Xu Tianyang's mental force detection was like an omniscient perspective, instantly presenting the Breaking Clan's information in his and Xu Yunxiao's minds.
"It seems the Breaking Clan suffered heavy losses back then!" Xu Yunxiao said with a sigh upon hearing this.
As he spoke, Xu Yunxiao, with Xu Tianyang, bypassed the Breaking Clan's defenses in a few leaps and arrived at Yang Wudi's courtyard.
Through the window, the two saw an old man standing in the room, tinkering with something. The old man was tall and thin, with a head of black hair, a ruddy complexion, and hawkish eyes that gave off a chilling sensation, clearly indicating he was not an easy person to deal with.
As if sensing something, Yang Wudi suddenly turned his head, his sharp gaze instantly falling upon Xu Tianyang and Xu Yunxiao.
"Rats, how dare you spy on my Yang Family!"
A furious roar erupted from Yang Wudi's mouth. He stared coldly at Xu Yunxiao, a chilling killing intent unreservedly bursting forth.
Instantly, the Soul Breaking Spear appeared in Yang Wudi's right hand. It was a spear twelve feet long.
The spear was entirely black, gleaming with a cold luster. Its shaft was eight feet long, and the broad spearhead was a full four feet long. The shaft was as thick as a normal person's arm. Two yellow, two purple, and four black spirit rings, all optimally configured, simultaneously appeared on the spear, shining up and down around the twelve-foot-long spear, immediately emitting an incredibly dazzling brilliance.
With the spear in hand, Yang Wudi's expression became extremely cold, as if all emotions had vanished in an instant. All of his essence, qi, and Spirit were completely concentrated on the iron spear in his hand.
"What a technique!" Xu Yunxiao exclaimed with admiration, his eyes shining brightly as he saw Yang Wudi in this state.
To be able to fuse one's Spirit with oneself to such an extent, he had only witnessed it in Feng Tianxiang and Sword Douluo Chen Xin so far.
It should be noted that Feng Tianxiang was a top genius from the Sun Moon Continent, Xu Yunxiao's right-hand man, and was already at eighty-eight ranks, poised to break through to Titled Douluo within five years.
And Chen Xin was even more terrifying, a ninety-six-rank Super Douluo, whose position as the continent's number one attacker spoke for itself.
The impression Yang Wudi gave to Xu Yunxiao and his companion was already a very high evaluation.
"Hmph!"
Yang Wudi remained unmoved. With a sudden roar, he thrust the spear forward, his body moving with the spear. Without any superfluous movements, he lunged directly at Xu Yunxiao's chest.
The moment the spearhead pointed at Xu Yunxiao, he seemed to fuse with the spear, and the powerful aura that suddenly surged forth was on par with a Titled Douluo.
