Wuxia: Slay enemies to boost your cultivation; my power is boundless!

"Want to leave? Not so easy."

Ji Ling's face was grim. Xiao Bieli's martial arts skills were even better than he had expected, but fortunately he still had the Spirit Serpent Blade Formation that he had carefully trained.

"Form a battle formation and capture this brat!" Ji Ling roared.

Clang! Clang!

The thirteen seventh and eighth-rank swordsmen standing beside him drew their swords almost simultaneously, their blue sword light forming a continuous line that enveloped Xiao Bieli.

"The Thirteen Blades of the Spirit Serpent Gang!"

"Finally, we've seen them make a move again!"

"The last time they made a move, it seems like it was the last time!"

"Isn't that obvious? Last time they killed Pan Xiong, the head of the Pan family, who was at the early stage of the sixth rank. I wonder if this Blood Blade Vajra can stop them?"

"..."

Exclamations of surprise came from all around.

Clearly, the Serpent Gang's sword formation is very famous in Cang County.

However, facing the continuous, overwhelming blue sword light that surrounded them like a raging storm, Xiao Bieli's expression remained unchanged. Instead, he spoke with a look of pity:

"Chief Ji, if you continue to press this, I will have no choice but to take action!"

Ji Ling sneered:

"Go ahead and make your move!"

"You've offended the Twelve Linked Forts, do you really think you can leave Dongjiang County?"

Hey!

Xiao Bieli let out a soft sigh:

"Since Chief Ji is pressing us so hard, we have no choice but to leave our lives to fate!"

Seeing the blue blade about to strike,

boom!

Xiao Bieli's true energy surged, and his Iron Shirt and Thirteen Bodyguards external martial arts were pushed to their limits, making him seem to be lifted several feet higher out of thin air.

Both hands reached into the flashing blades.

The Vajra Finger struck repeatedly, each finger aimed at a weak point in the continuous barrage of blade light.

The thirteen swordsmen of the Spirit Serpent Gang were forced to retreat.

"Chief Ji, if we all leave now, I can let bygones be bygones!" Xiao Bieli shouted.

The sound was loud enough for everyone present to hear clearly.

Xiao Bieli's effortless handling of the continuous cyan blade light inspired many to yearn for it, wishing they could be the ones to show off in front of so many people.

They roam the world for nothing more than fame and fortune.

Facing thirteen experts from the Spirit Serpent Gang, including a sixth-rank expert, they were able to handle the situation with ease. If it were them, they would have become famous throughout Dongjiang County after just one battle!

"Third Uncle, I've noticed that Blood Blade Vajra Xiao Bieli hasn't killed anyone yet. Is what he said earlier true?" A young swordsman looked at his elder and asked in a low voice.

The third uncle's expression changed drastically. He hurriedly covered the young swordsman's mouth and smiled apologetically at the surroundings:

"The child doesn't know any better!"

"You're so immature!"

He pulled the young swordsman aside to a secluded spot and reprimanded him in a low voice:

"How dare you spout nonsense about the Twelve Linked Forts?"

"Even if what Xiao Bieli said is true, he killed the young master and the third master of Baiyun Manor, which means he is destined to become the public enemy of the martial arts world in Dongjiang County!"

"You can't say these things in public anymore, or it will cause trouble for yourself, and even for me and your father."

……

Just as Xiao Bieli shattered the continuous stream of sword light, Ji Ling's figure suddenly darted out like lightning, appearing instantly within two feet of Xiao Bieli.

He pointed a finger at Xiao Bieli's chest.

Snake Finger!

This finger strike was like the breath of a venomous snake, aimed at what Ji Ling considered to be the weakest point in Xiao Bieli's defenses.

Boom!

This finger was placed on Xiao Bieli's Tanzhong acupoint.

puff!

Xiao Bieli secretly channeled his inner energy, spitting out a mouthful of blood, and roared angrily:

"Chief Ji, I have tried to yield to you at every turn, yet you continue to press me and try to take my life. This is truly outrageous."

Ji Ling ignored Xiao Bieli's words, her face beaming with joy, and shouted loudly:

"He's injured, don't hold back, kill him or not!"

Swish swish!

A barrage of blue blade light hurtled towards Xiao Bieli.

"Too deceiving!"

"kill!"

Xiao Bieli also shouted loudly,

Clang!

Red-sleeved knife drawn

Sword Drawing Technique!

A crimson blade of light appeared; all other charms paled in comparison to this single strike.

Dangdang Dangdang!

Thirteen long swords snapped in two with a single blow.

Puff puff!

At the forefront, the five strongest of the thirteen swordsmen all had long knife wounds on their chests.

With expressions of disbelief on their faces, they coughed up blood and collapsed limply to the ground.

[Experience +1000!]

[Experience +1000!]

【…】

"impossible!"

"How can this be?"

Ji Ling turned and fled, showing no intention of avenging his fallen subordinates.

Even knowing the weaknesses of the Spirit Serpent Blade Formation, he would have needed to find an opportunity to break it in one fell swoop. However, Xiao Bieli broke through the Spirit Serpent Blade Formation with just one strike.

He couldn't describe the blow, but he knew that even he would have had a hard time surviving it.

Thump thump!!!

A series of hurried footsteps reached Ji Ling's ears.

"what!"

He listened to the sound and located it, then shouted loudly, turned his head sharply, and pointed in the direction from which the footsteps were coming.

Roar!

A whooshing sound reached his ears.

What followed was a dazzling flash of light!

Five Tigers Severing the Gate with a Blade!

White Tiger leaps across the ravine!

Ji Ling's head flew upwards.

[Experience +2000!]

Xiao Bieli turned his head and looked at the people from the Spirit Serpent Gang.

No one dared to meet his gaze; they all lowered their heads.

Even worse, some people were so frightened that they collapsed to the ground.

Sheathing his sword, Xiao Bieli said coldly:

"I do not wish to be enemies with the martial arts world of Dongjiang County, but if anyone still wants to use my head to curry favor with the Twelve Linked Forts and White Cloud Manor, don't blame me for being impolite!"

After saying that, Xiao Bieli lightly leaped and landed on the horse.

The scabbard lightly tapped the horse's rump before it galloped away.

……

Wow——!

After Xiao Bieli's figure disappeared from sight, an uproar broke out at the city gate!

"Even the Spirit Serpent Gang's Spirit Serpent Blade Formation was broken by Xiao Bieli with a single strike!"

"Just how advanced is Xiao Bieli's martial arts?"

"Stop guessing, he's at least a late-stage sixth-rank expert, plus that terrifying swordsmanship... Did you guys see clearly how Blood Blade Vajra Xiao Bieli drew his sword just now?"

"See it clearly my ass! That slash was fucking too fast!"

"Sigh... At first, Xiao Bieli was very accommodating and unwilling to hurt anyone. If it weren't for Gang Leader Ji's sneak attack that injured Xiao Bieli, Xiao Bieli probably wouldn't have gone on a killing spree!"

"I don't think Xiao Bieli is a bloodthirsty person. I'm afraid what he said just now was true!"

"Could it be that the young master really is with..."

"Stop talking! If this gets back to the ears of the Twelve Linked Forts, we'll be in trouble too!"

……

Once outside the city, Xiao Bieli slowed his pace, a smile playing on his lips. He wiped the blood from his mouth and murmured:

"While my acting skills are slightly flawed, no one has spread more outrageous rumors about me than I have!"

"This should salvage some of my reputation, right?"
