Invincible!

Chapter 40 Reporting
The Marquis of Dingfeng's residence.

Besides Zhao Tianming and Bai Yupan, more than a dozen guards and attendants were waiting for the arrival of the Thirteen Eagles of Luoyang at Wuliting outside the city.

Some of these guards and attendants were from the Prince's residence, while the rest naturally came from the Marquis of Dingfeng's residence.

Despite Zhao Tianming's confident assurances and assurances to Madam Mo Caiying that the Thirteen Eagles of Luoyang could easily kill Li Xianshou, the Madam still dispatched guards and attendants to inform the Marquis of Dingfeng's residence as quickly as possible upon receiving any news, so that everyone in the residence could rest assured.

Like now...

Knowing that the Thirteen Eagles of Luoyang should have arrived, Mo Caiying waited calmly in the main hall.

Maids and servants prepared tea and snacks and served the guests.

Even the newly appointed commander of the guards, Fang Xin, and Zhao Tianming, a junior brother at the Heart Realm, accompanied them outside, ready to strike.

"Madam, it's time for dinner."

At this moment, the maidservant beside her whispered her request for permission.

But Mo Caiying had no appetite at the moment.

This can be seen from the fact that the tea and snacks on the table were hardly touched.

She turned her gaze directly to the outside of the hall: "Call Fang Xin in and ask if there's any news?"

"Yes."

The maid responded.

Soon, Fang Xin entered the main hall: "Madam, you can rest assured. The Thirteen Eagles of Luoyang are a powerful force in the prefecture, and no fewer than three experts with flawless body have died at their hands. Although Zhou Juechen, whom Li Xian is attached to, has just become a first-rate expert, he is no match for the Thirteen Eagles of Luoyang."

He was full of confidence: "Besides, Li Xian has offended more than just our Marquis's Mansion and caused Miss's death. He also boldly and brazenly murdered Princess Yan Ruxue of the Yue Prince's Mansion in Canglang Mountain, completely offending the Yue Prince's Mansion. Bai Gongfeng and Zhang Tongling in the mansion will definitely not let him off easily. No matter how capable he is, he will surely die this time."

Upon hearing Fang Xin's words, Mo Caiying was not at ease; instead, her right hand, which was holding the teacup, trembled slightly.

Kill his beloved Liu Yanran!

Kill Princess Yan Ruxue of the Yue Prince's Mansion!
Heaven knows how shocked Mo Caiying was when she heard this news!

Originally, Li Xian came to the Marquis's mansion and killed Liu Fu in front of her, and took her hostage. However, he eventually withdrew and did not dare to lay a hand on her. At the time, she thought that Li Xian had some reservations and was afraid of her status as a Lady of the Imperial Decree.

But now...

Li Xian was ruthless and heartless. Not only did he kill Liu Yanran, whom he was willing to give everything to marry, but he also dared to kill the young princess of the Yue Prince's mansion.

He even nearly killed the Crown Prince of Yue with a single blow!

That's incredibly audacious.

Thinking back to the scene, she felt a wave of fear.

After Zhao Tianming's suggestion, she spent a large sum of money, 30,000 taels of silver, to invite the Thirteen Eagles of Luoyang to travel a long distance to the Li River, in an effort to put Li Xian to death.

otherwise……

Every time she fell asleep in the middle of the night, she would think of the scene that day when Li Xian held a knife to her neck, and she would be unable to eat or sleep peacefully.

Now, hearing Fang Xin mention this matter again...

Mo Caiying raised her head and said in a cold tone, "I want to see them alive or dead!"

"Yes, I will send someone to inquire immediately."

Fang Xin bowed and agreed.

Just then, a commotion broke out outside.

The already sensitive Mo Caiying immediately stood up upon hearing the commotion: "What happened!?"

She couldn't help but take a few steps forward to the entrance of the main hall and scold the noisy servants, "What kind of behavior is this, making such a racket!"

Soon, a frightened servant rushed into the inner courtyard, nearly tumbling and crawling, screaming with a deathly pale face, "Something terrible has happened... Madam... Li... Li Xian, he... he's here..."

"Li Xian!?"

Fang Xin was taken aback.

Then they realized that this was Li Xian calling himself Li Xianhou, and everyone had tacitly accepted this new way of addressing him.

but……

"He's here?! Impossible!"

Fang Xin suddenly stepped forward: "Director Zhao has already led the Thirteen Eagles of Luoyang to attack the Longquan Martial Arts School where Li Xian is located, and Commander Zhang of the Wangfu is also providing support. Even if Li Xian and Zhou Juechen have great skills, they will surely die when faced with so many first- and second-rate experts attacking them. How could he possibly come out alive..."

Mo Caiying, however, turned pale instantly: "Could it be that the Zhou family learned of the attack on the Longquan Martial Arts School in advance, and that Li Xian thought he was doomed and wanted to risk everything to break into the Marquis's mansion before the encirclement and kill us all?!"

Upon hearing this, Fang Xin also felt his breath catch in his throat.

possible!
Absolutely possible!
It's perfectly normal for a lawless and madman like Li Xian to drag others down with him after realizing he's doomed.

The Thirteen Eagles of Luoyang are renowned for their prowess; wouldn't the Zhou family find out if they entered Lijiang City?
Right now he……

"Madam, I'll escort you first. We'll retreat to the Prince's residence!"

Fang Xin reacted quickly: "Li Xian must have been alerted and is now fighting desperately. As long as we can avoid his sharp edge for now, when the Thirteen Eagles of Luoyang and Commander Zhang arrive, he will only face certain death!"

Mo Caiying was also flustered, completely losing the composure she had displayed while waiting for news.

but……

The Marquis's guards collapsed faster than they had imagined.

To be precise, none of the dozens of guards in the Marquis's mansion, including Zhao Tianming's junior brother who was at the Lung Realm, offered any resistance whatsoever.

As Li Xian arrived, all the guards surrounded him, yet none dared to stop him.

He almost bumped into Mo Caiying and the others who were trying to leave in a hurry from another direction, right in front of the encirclement.

When Mo Caiying saw Li Xian standing in front of her, holding a cleaver and covered in blood, she was so frightened that her face turned pale, her whole body trembled, and her legs went weak.

If it weren't for the maid supporting him, he probably would have collapsed to the ground.

"Why are you in such a hurry to leave?"

Li Xian said something.

“Li…Li Xian…Li Xian…what do you want to do? I’m telling you…don’t do anything rash…” Mo Caiying forced herself to remain calm and spoke.

But her trembling voice and pale face proved that she was all bark and no bite at the moment.

"You are afraid."

As Li Xian spoke, he nodded again: "You should be afraid."

Mo Caiying kept a tight face, trying her best to maintain a semblance of dignity as a marquis's wife.

"Mr. Li... please feel free to make any requests you may have. As long as it is within our manor's capabilities, we will do our utmost..."

She controlled her tone: "Money, beauties, cultivation techniques, cultivation supplies? I can give you anything! By the way, don't you have feelings for Zhang Yao? I'll give you her indenture right now. From this day forward, you are her master, and you can make her do whatever you want..."

"Require……"

Upon hearing this, Li Xian quickly realized something and asked in surprise, "You're stalling for time? You have reinforcements?"

Upon hearing this, Mo Caiying involuntarily glanced in the direction of the Prince's residence.

Li Xian saw through this scene and said bluntly, "Are you waiting for the Thirteen Eagles of Luoyang and Zhang Shuheng, the commander of the Prince's Mansion? If you are waiting for them, you don't need to wait anymore, they are already dead."

Before Mo Caiying could even speak, Fang Xin couldn't help but exclaim, "Impossible! The Blood Eagles, the leader of the Thirteen Eagles of Luoyang, and Zhang Shuheng, the commander of the Prince's Mansion, are both formidable experts. How could this be..."

Before he could finish speaking, his gaze suddenly fell on the black iron sword that Li Xian was carrying.

"This is... Commander Zhang's Cold Moon Blade!?"

Zhang Shuheng is known as one of the Four Great Swordsmen, and this Xuan Tie sword, Leng Yue, is almost a symbol of his status.

at the moment……

Zhang Shuheng and the Thirteen Eagles of Luoyang, who should have been surrounding and killing Li Xian, remained silent. Instead, Li Xian came directly to their Dingfeng Marquis's residence, carrying Zhang Shuheng's Cold Moon Blade!
In addition to what Mr. Li just said...

Despite his disbelief, the truth that had plunged him into an icy abyss and caused him to tremble uncontrollably seemed to be about to be revealed.

"Impossible! How could this be! Those were the Thirteen Eagles of Luoyang, and Zhang Shuheng, one of the Four Great Sword Masters! Each of them was a renowned figure in the martial arts world! How could they be dead? How could they just die like that!?"

Fang Xin's mind broke down. He cried out, his voice trembling with sobs, "This isn't real, this can't be real..."

Seeing Fang Xin's appearance, Mo Caiying understood what was going on...

Li Xian was not lying.

he……

They really killed the Thirteen Eagles of Luoyang.

They killed Zhang Shuheng, the commander of the guards of the Yue Prince's Mansion.

They killed the two powerful figures who were seen as their lifeline.

Now, they have no one to rely on and will use their own flesh and blood to face the blood-stained butcher's knife of this madman, Li Xian!

“Li…Mr. Li…”

Mo Caiying opened her mouth, but her voice was hoarse as she spoke: "We were wrong... I swear, the Marquis's mansion will never again be your enemy..."

"No need."

Li shook his head.

If we don't create enemies, how can we unleash the potential of the Marquis's mansion?
He strode forward, ignoring the numerous guards from the Marquis's residence and the newly appointed commander Fang Xin, and went directly to Mo Caiying.

only……

Before Li Xian could even stand in front of her, the First Madam, who was stunned by the words "no need" and seemed to have already anticipated that the next sentence would be "there will be no future," was so frightened by Li Xian's arrival with his knife that she completely lost her footing.

Even with the help of a maid, she still couldn't control herself and collapsed to the ground, her face full of fear.

At first glance, it looks like he's kneeling and begging for mercy.

"Madam, why perform such a grand ceremony?"

Li Xian stopped in his tracks: "Since Marquis Dingfeng has not returned, you still have a chance. I remember that he has already completed the blood and marrow cleansing. Perhaps if he goes to the capital, he will comprehend the primordial unity and break through to the point of perfect perfection."

"The 'Calming Wind'..."

Mo Caiying instantly understood what Li Xian meant.

he……

Killing her wasn't enough; they also wanted to kill her husband!

Mo Caiying was jolted awake. She didn't know where the courage came from, but she suddenly said, "Li Xian, it was me who was targeting you, and it has nothing to do with my husband. I am willing to atone with my death. I only ask that you show leniency to my husband and to the innocent people of our Marquis's mansion."

Li Xian ignored him and simply said, "I will come again when Marquis Dingfeng returns to his residence, and put an end to our conflict."

After saying that, he turned around and headed out of the Dingfeng Marquis's residence.

Upon seeing Li Xian, Mo Caiying's hard-won courage vanished once more, and she collapsed back to the ground, her face ashen.

……

Shortly after Li Xian left the Hou residence, a message was quickly delivered to the Longquan Martial Arts School through the Zhou family.

After reading the information above, Zhou Juechen was speechless.

"It really is……"

After a moment's thought, he said to the Zhou family member, "Send a message to the Shao brothers, telling them that the Marquis's mansion is emptier than ever before."

"The Shaw Brothers?"

The Zhou family members were taken aback: "Six years ago, the Shao brothers, who married their sister into the Marquis's mansion, but because Mo Caiying was jealous, they watched helplessly as their sister was ordered to be beaten to death by the guards?"

"Yes, these two are in Baihe Village, ten miles outside the city, and they have both reached the Inner Lung Refining Realm."

Zhou Juechen said calmly.

This member of the Zhou family instantly understood Zhou Juechen's meaning.

"I'll go right away."
