I am a swordsman in a strange city

Chapter 130 Annihilation of the Mansion
A brilliant golden light suddenly appeared in the darkness, like a small sun.

Those things in the darkness had nowhere to hide in the sunlight. Pei Ju narrowed his eyes and saw that the shadows in the darkness seemed to be covered with some invisible flames, as if they were being burned.

The rat-man who emerged from the depths of darkness, wearing a crown and resembling a god, raised his hand and covered his face with his sleeve.

His sleeves were embroidered with mysterious patterns that the light could not penetrate, but he was extremely angry because he saw his descendants around him being burned to death by this light.

"Who dares to trespass on my immortal abode?"

Just then, a sword light descended from above, carrying a majestic and grand air, yet simple and sharp, with a strange sense of magnificence within its simplicity.

It seemed to come from beyond the heavens, arriving in an instant.

As the sword's cry rang in his ears, the sword light seemed to pierce through the void, instantly stabbing into his body.

A powerful and chilling sword intent surged into His consciousness, severing His connection with this world and annihilating His consciousness.

As if the wind had blown away the lamp, in just a moment, only a wisp of smoke dissipated.

……

The Huang family members hurried towards the Five Immortals Cave. Just as they were about to arrive, they suddenly had a bad premonition, and then they heard a long and painful cry in their hearts.

That was the scream of the Yellow Immortal whom the Huang family had always worshipped, and it appeared directly in their hearts.

Their pace quickened.

When they arrived at Huang Xianfu, they found only an empty cave. All the memorial tablets they had erected had been burned, and there were corpses of Huang Xian scattered on the ground. The largest of them was as big as an adult, with a clear sword scar between its eyebrows.

"Who, who killed me, Huang Xian?" the leader cried out in anguish.

"Grandpa, it must be Pei Ju. Pei Ju used some unknown means to harm our ancestor."

"Find him and tear him to pieces."

Just then, someone in the darkness said, "No need to look anymore, I've been here all along."

"You, how dare you stay here!" the Huang family member shouted angrily.

But their answer was a flash of sword light.

The sword light fell from above, and in an instant it split into a hazy array of sword lights, each wisp of light seemingly falling towards him.

Just as they were about to perform the ritual, they suddenly found themselves unable to move, unable even to think. Out of the corner of their eye, they noticed that there was another person nearby.

It was a female Taoist priest, wearing a golden crown and a Taoist robe, with a whisk hanging from her arm, looking at them with a cold expression.

"She's actually here too, how dare she..."

Then, their consciousness ceased to think.

……

In the Huang family's residence in Haishi, there is a room where a single memorial tablet is enshrined.

However, on this day, screams came from the room. When someone went in to check, they found that the memorial tablets had all fallen over and an invisible, eerie wind was blowing through the room. They quickly went to inform the head of the family, Huang Shen.

When Huang Shen arrived, he was stunned after just one glance. At that moment, he knew that the Huang family's business in the Five Immortals Cave had been cut off.

The ancestors of the Huang family who were sent into the cave to enjoy longevity have all truly died.

"Who is it? Is it that Taoist Yu?" Huang Shen wondered, but he couldn't be sure, or rather, he still didn't want to believe it.

His nature was rational and calm, yet at this moment he found it unbelievable and hard to accept. The other four immortal families naturally knew about the massacre that had occurred in the Five Immortals Cave, especially the Hu family, who were both shocked and terrified.

Furthermore, Grandma Seven told the Hu family that someone had come to the mansion gate with a sword, demanding the freedom of one person. If they refused, she would destroy another immortal mansion.

Then, Hu An'an, who had already entered the Five Immortals Cave on her own, returned, and there was no longer any trace of Grandma Qi on her.

The Hu family knew that Seventh Grandmother and Hu An'an had broken the curse.

This news spread quickly throughout the city. Soon, people learned that the Five Immortals Cave had been broken into and the Huang family's Huangxian Mansion had been wiped out. They also learned that the people who did this were Pei Ju and his senior sister, Yu Daoren.

However, when someone tried to find Pei Ju, they discovered that he had already disappeared.

They had heard that Yu Daoren was on Xionglan Peak in Xijiang Dongxiang, but no one dared to actually go looking for her, or even bother to look at her.

However, some Taoist disciples, after learning about this, couldn't help but say in some online communities, "Senior Sister Yu is awesome!"

Pei Ju left Haishi and boarded a cruise ship.

It was heading towards Southeast Asia.

I obeyed Senior Sister Yu, but everything was arranged by the committee.

The cruise ship was called the Royal Princess. It had five decks and was decorated very luxuriously. His room was one of the best rooms, the kind that money couldn't buy.

He went up to the deck and looked at the waves in front of him. The waves were surging, but his heart was at peace.

People were taking pictures on the deck from time to time. He was looking at the scenery, and he was naturally a part of the scenery in other photos as well.

Although he left in a hurry this time to Southeast Asia, besides the fact that his trespassing in the Five Immortals Cave was a big deal and he wanted to avoid the limelight, he also wanted to hold a gang mediation conference in Southeast Asia.

In Southeast Asia, there are many small countries, which are easily controlled by large families and gangs. Therefore, sometimes the conflicts between small countries are just conflicts between families.

Therefore, a large conference is held every now and then; it used to be called a mediation conference, but now it is called a peace promotion conference.

The Shanghai Municipal Committee's intention was that they hoped he could go in and take a look and listen, but he didn't need to do anything.

Senior Sister Yu didn't say anything to him, but she gave him some information about certain people.

"Hello, sir, may I take your picture?"

Pei Ju stood there, his black hair piled up, wearing a dark, modified short-sleeved ancient-style robe, giving him the air of a noble young master who had stepped out of the deep mansion of an ancient king and fallen to earth.

Pei Ju turned his head and saw a young woman holding a camera and looking at him. Not far from her sat a couple, who looked like a family of three traveling together.

Pei Ju nodded, and the other person immediately raised their camera and started taking pictures of Pei Ju.

Pei Ju simply gazed into the distance; he didn't deliberately strike any pose, while the other person kept changing positions to take pictures.

A moment later, she said again, "Can I take a picture with you?"

Pei Ju glanced at her, then at the couple beside her, and nodded. She then handed the camera to the woman in the couple and came to Pei Ju's side, whereupon Pei Ju turned around as well.

The woman stood happily beside Pei Ju.

"Click." The light flickered.

However, Pei Ju frowned.
