Swords emerge from Mount Hua, sweeping across the heavens from the world of Swordsman.

This strike is not only more suitable for women to cultivate, but also perfectly matches Liu Sheng Piaoxu's state of mind.

"I look forward to watching it," Yue Zhuoqun replied with a smile.

"Okay, I'll satisfy you."

Liu Sheng Piaoxu strode forward and, when he was still five meters away from Yue Zhuoqun, suddenly leaped up and thrust out his knife.

hum!

A blinding light burst forth from her katana, transforming into streaks of light that scattered in all directions.

The scattered starlight danced and swayed in the air, as if it had truly become snow falling on earth.

This was a beautiful cut, but also a dangerous one.

When a person's mind is drawn to a beautiful scene, that's when life is harvested.

Brief, gorgeous, and exquisite, like a brilliant yet fleeting love.

Yue Zhuoqun was also captivated by the beautiful scenery, his eyes seeing nothing but splendor.

Chi!

A dangerous stab was already close to his chest.

A smug smile appeared on Liu Sheng Piaoxu's lips; this was a sure-kill blow.

However, an unexpected situation arose!

clang!

The katana was blocked; it was blocked by two fingers.

No one knows how those two fingers got there; it's as if the knife wasn't stabbed into the heart, but rather into the gap between the fingers.

"Snowflakes falling on earth are indeed beautiful."

Yue Zhuoqun's lips curled up, and he flicked his finger lightly!

Ding!

The katana trembled violently, and a terrifying force spread to Yagyu Hyousu's body.

puff~

He spat out another mouthful of blood and his body flew backward.

Chapter 58 The Iron-Blooded Marquis Exposed

With a single stroke, the God of Slaughter is slain, and snow falls upon the world!

Duan Tianya's long-buried memories resurfaced. As he watched Liu Sheng Piaoxu being flicked away by Yue Zhuoqun's finger, her pure face slowly merged with the image in his memory.

He instinctively leaped forward and pulled Liu Sheng Piaoxu into his arms: "You are... Piaoxu?"

Liu Sheng Piaoxu's face was deathly pale, and her breathing was weak: "Tianya...brother?"

Duan Tianya's heart clenched suddenly. He looked at Yue Zhuoqun, whose expression was cold and stern: "Brother, this is an old friend of mine. I hope you will be lenient with me."

"Ha! You expect me to show leniency to a Japanese woman? Do you know that she's in cahoots with that thug who impersonated Princess Toshihide and attempted to assassinate the Emperor?"

Duan Tianya was stunned again, glancing incredulously at Piaoxu in his arms.

When he first met Liu Sheng Piaoxu, she was only a teenager, as innocent and kind as her older sister, Yukihime.

It's impossible to connect this with the assassin.

"I am a secret agent from the Dragon Guard Manor, and I have come here to investigate the case of the fake Li Xiu."

Since you say that Piaoxu is involved in this matter, then Tianya must protect her life and find out the truth of the matter.

"Are you trying to intimidate me with the power of the Dragon Guard Manor?"

"That's not what Tianya meant!"

Shangguan Haitang also spoke up to explain: "Brother, please don't misunderstand. The Li Xiu case involves many people. Our Hulong Manor has the responsibility to find out the cause, find the mastermind and the real culprit, and bring him to justice."

"Hmph, I'm afraid you can't move the real culprit behind this."

Shangguan Haitang was surprised and looked Yue Zhuoqun up and down: "Brother, do you already know who it is?"

"Not only do I know, but you all know me too. It's just that you probably won't believe me if I tell you."

"As royal spies, we naturally don't believe in baseless accusations, but as long as there is evidence, no matter how skilled or powerful the murderer is, we will not let them go," Duan Tianya said in a deep voice.

"Haha, as expected of the number one secret agent, you speak with such ambition."

Very well, considering your kindness in blocking the dart for me, I'll give you a chance to investigate the truth.

But before that, I still need to kill the other Japanese people in the arena.

Keng!

Sword light flashed, sword energy soared into the sky, and life withered after the blood blossomed to its fullest extent.

Duan Tianya stared at the dark sword that mercilessly reaped lives, his throat moved as if he wanted to speak, but in the end he held back.

He had already discerned from Yue Zhuoqun's swordsmanship that the opponent was not a weakling who needed his help to defend against hidden weapons, but a top-notch swordsman.

By not killing Yagyu Hyousu for the time being, I am already giving myself the greatest face.

As the sword rang out, all fifty Japanese samurai lay dead.

Yue Zhuoqun flicked the blood off the tip of his sword, sheathed it, and then looked calmly at Duan Tianya and Haitang:

"If you want to know who's behind this, bring her with you!"

……

A residence outside the headquarters of the Giant Whale Gang.

"Master!"

As Yang Lin greeted them, he glanced at Duan Tianya and the other man with a puzzled look.

"Don't hold back, tell me the news!"

"My uncles, aunts, brothers, and sisters have wiped out all fifteen branches of the Giant Whale Gang. All the branch leaders have been captured, and all the Japanese ronin have been killed."

At the main altar, Li Tianhao is plotting to seize the position of gang leader; all the Xin Yin Sect disciples are present.

Although the words were brief, Duan Tianya and Shangguan Haitang were terrified.

Only now did I realize that the incredibly young and highly skilled martial artist in front of me was actually Yue Buqun, the leader of the Huashan Sect!

"Okay, that saves us the trouble of searching for them one by one."

"Let's go to the main altar and meet with Yagyu Tajima-no-Kami and Li Tianhao!"

"Yes!"

Yang Lin's spirits lifted, and with a wave of his hand, hundreds of Huashan disciples surged out from the shadows, heading in a mighty procession towards the headquarters of the Giant Whale Gang.

"Who goes there? This is the headquarters of the Giant Whale Gang. Outsiders are not allowed to approach."

The appearance of such a large group of people at the entrance of the main altar caused panic among the Giant Whale Gang members guarding the gate. They struggled to their feet and shouted.

"Hmph! We came from Mount Hua to exterminate the Japanese; those who obstruct us will be killed without mercy!"

Yang Lin swiftly beheaded the two leading gang members with a single sword stroke. The remaining gang members, terrified, fled in panic, shouting as they went.

"The Huashan Sect is attacking! Help!"

Yue Zhuoqun and his group moved as if they were in an empty place, and soon arrived at the location of the Xin Yin Sect's Taoist temple.

"You Huashan Sect, how dare you cause trouble at my Giant Whale Gang's headquarters!"

A furious shout rang out, and Li Tianhao and Yagyu Tajima-no-Kami, having received the news, finally led a group of people out to greet them.

Yagyu Tajima-no-kami spotted Duan Tianya and the injured Yagyu Hyousu in the crowd at a glance, his eyes blazing with fury:

"Duan Tianya, what did you do to Piaoxu?"

"Mr. Yagyu, you misunderstand. The falling catkins were not injured by my hand."

"If it's not you, then it must be the Huashan Sect!"

Liu Sheng Danma then stared intently at Yue Zhuoqun: "And who are you from Mount Hua?"

"Yue Buqun!"

Yue Zhuoqun's lips curled into a smile, and he suddenly shouted:

"Yagyu Tajima-no-Kami, your plot to assassinate the Emperor in collusion with the Iron-Blooded Marquis has been exposed!"

what?

Godfather?!

Duan Tianya and Shangguan Haitang were shocked and looked at Yue Zhuoqun in disbelief.

A hint of panic appeared on Yagyu Tajima's face: "You, you mustn't talk nonsense."

"Hehe, in order to gain the support of the Iron-Blooded Marquis and become the leader of the martial arts alliance in Japan, you specially led your disciples to the Central Plains to help the Marquis assassinate the emperor and rebel."

Unfortunately, the assassination attempt failed, and Cao Zhengchun of the Eastern Depot caught them red-handed.
