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

Ning Qing shook her head and smiled:

"It must be the Liu family who are coming. I received the news not long after I left Dongjiang County that the Liu family and people from Baiyun Manor were also heading this way!"

"They must have found your location too."

"The person from the Liu family is Liu Yuncong, Liu Jun's cousin. Originally, Liu Jun was the son of the family head and had good talent. He was the future head of the Liu family, but now he died at your hands. Liu Yuncong should thank you. If Liu Jun hadn't died, even if he had reached the fifth rank in the future, he would only have been a powerful elder in the Liu family."

"If nothing unexpected happens, he is very likely to become the future head of the Liu family."

"I don't know exactly who came, or whether the fifth-rank officials from Baiyun Manor came."

"A wise man doesn't stand under a dangerous wall; you should leave first!"

"I'll hold them off for a bit!"

Xiao Bieli shook his head:

"Even if I manage to escape this time, so what? As long as I don't leave Dongjiang County, they will eventually find me."

"So much has happened lately. In the end, the world of martial arts is still a dog-eat-dog world!"

"What happens in the Jianghu is a matter of Jianghu!"

"I was too soft-hearted before!"

"Running away won't solve anything. Only by killing them all until they're terrified will we have fewer troubles!"

The inn in Xiahe Town had already caused the innkeeper a lot of trouble, so I won't cause any more trouble for the tea stall owner now.

Xiao Bieli stood up, gripped the red-sleeved knife in his hand, and walked out of the teahouse. He smiled slightly at the three people standing in the corner of the teahouse, put on a raincoat and a bamboo hat, and stepped into the rain.

Zeng Fan was slightly taken aback when he saw Xiao Bieli walk into the rain; the sound of horses' hooves was already very close.

He had assumed that Xiao Bieli, having allied himself with the Ning family, would surely use the Ning family's power to extricate himself from the quagmire of Dongjiang County. He thought that anyone who had come to this remote place was definitely here to cause trouble for Xiao Bieli.

What does Xiao Bieli mean by this?

Are you going to face your pursuers all by yourself?

Seeing this, Zeng Fan turned and walked into the teahouse, looked at Ning Qing, and said:

"Young Master Ning, aren't you going to do anything about it?"

"Given the strength Xiao Bieli displayed in Cang County, the people who have come this time are probably fifth-rank experts!"

Ning Qing shook her head:

"Since he doesn't need me to hold off his pursuers, then forget it!"

"The one who wants to kill him is Zhuo Qingyun, who is seventh on the Dragon and Tiger List. If he can't even stop the Liu family's pursuit, he will surely die once Zhuo Qingyun has a chance to make a move!"

"Come in and have some tea. We'll leave once the rain stops."

Ding Yuan and Zhu Shou were both taken aback when they heard Ning Qing's words. They then remembered that Ning Qing had said before that the one who wanted to harm Xiao Bieli was Zhuo Qingyun, the seventh-ranked "Four Directions Sword" on the Dragon and Tiger List.

The influence of the Cangyuan Sword Sect is even greater than that of the Ning family.

Even though the pursuers are hesitant to act now because of Young Master Ning's status as a member of the Ning family, they would have no such reservations if Zhuo Qingyun were to make a move.

However, no matter how talented Xiao Bieli is, he is only a sixth-rank expert. If he encounters a fifth-rank expert... then he will be in danger!

……

Plop plop!

A dozen or so horses galloped through the mud and water, splashing water everywhere.

"Xu~"

"Shut up!"

When the people on horseback saw the figure standing on the official road, wearing a straw raincoat and a bamboo hat, they all reined in their horses and stopped a few meters away from Xiao Bieli.

Xiao Bieli sized up the group of people.

The leader looked to be no more than thirty years old. His appearance was three or four parts similar to Liu Jun, who died at Xiao Bieli's hands. However, compared to Liu Jun, he lacked a certain composure. This person should be Liu Yuncong, whom Ning Qing had mentioned.

On the horse beside Liu Yuncong sat an elderly man over fifty years old. He was dressed in a brocade robe and had a smile on his face. He looked like a harmless, nouveau riche country man.

But Xiao Bieli didn't think so. This person didn't even look like a 'martial arts practitioner', yet he gave him a feeling of being pricked by a thorn in his side.

"Xiao Bieli?"

"You're quite courageous!"

"How dare you kill members of my Liu family!"

Liu Yuncong looked at Xiao Bieli and shook his head.

Speaking of,

He also had to thank Xiao Bieli, because if Xiao Bieli hadn't killed Liu Jun, he wouldn't have had the chance to take over the Liu family.

Now that the family head's only son is dead, and he was promised that as long as he brings back Xiao Bieli's head, the position of the future family head will be his.

More importantly, Xiao Bieli's head would also allow him to gain the friendship of Zhuo Qingyun, the "Four Directions Sword".

With Zhuo Qingyun's support, even if the patriarch has an illegitimate child outside and wants to back out, he has nothing to fear.

Therefore, Xiao Bieli must die!

And they would die at his hands.

"Liu Yuncong?"

Xiao Bieli raised his head and smiled at Liu Yuncong:

"Speaking of which, Liu Jun died at my hands."

“I gave you the opportunity to be the head of the family, you should thank me.”

"Furthermore, your Liu family patriarch, Liu Zhongxuan, lost his son, yet he didn't come to Manzhou in person. Is it because he has an illegitimate child outside, and therefore sent you here to die?"

Hahahaha!

Liu Yuncong was stunned for a moment, then laughed:

"Sowing discord?"

"Unfortunately, this time I only brought people from our own branch of the family, not even a single person from Baiyun Manor, so your little tricks are destined to remain unknown to the outside world!"

"Actually, I really admire you. You've achieved this much at just seventeen."

"But unfortunately... he's destined to die by my hand."

The moment the words fell,

boom!

A bolt of lightning struck from the sky.

Clang!

Liu Yuncong drew his long sword from his waist and charged towards Xiao Bieli like lightning.

Liu Yuncong had already opened up his Ren and Du meridians, and was only one step away from gathering Qi into Gang and stepping into the fifth rank!

Before the sword even arrived, a sharp sword aura had already locked onto Xiao Bieli, stinging his skin.

With just this one sword strike, Liu Yuncong was able to overpower Zhou Chang, who was also at the peak of the sixth rank.

The Liu family members who arrived with Liu Yuncong all wore cold smiles on their faces.

They all knew Liu Yuncong's talent and strength. Even when the elders of the Cangyuan Sword Sect came to the Liu family, they praised Liu Yuncong's swordsmanship highly.

There is no difference between them and the inner disciples of the Cangyuan Sword Sect who are at the sixth rank.

Only the old man, who looked like a nouveau riche, had a suspicious look on his face. Xiao Bieli was so famous in Dongjiang County, and he had reached the sixth rank at such a young age. He shouldn't be so scared.

However, considering Liu Yuncong's martial arts skills, and with Liu Yuncong himself providing support, as long as Liu Yuncong isn't killed by a single blow, there won't be any problem.

Thinking of this, his brows relaxed.

Just as the sword was about to pierce Xiao Bieli, Liu Yuncong saw a hint of mockery on Xiao Bieli's face, and a surge of anger rose in his heart.

His Liu Family's Amazing Sword Technique was already at a level of perfection, and this sword strike showed absolutely no mercy.

What is Xiao Bieli pretending for?

But he soon found out why.

Clang!

The crimson sword was drawn.

Even the raindrops were tinged with a hint of sword energy.

Knife intention!

It's definitely the intent of a sword!

Song Kang, dressed as a nouveau riche, changed his expression drastically and suddenly rushed towards Xiao Bieli.

But it’s still a step too late!

A dazzling blade of light appeared!

clang!

There was a crisp sound.

The long sword in Liu Yuncong's hand broke in half, and he fell from the sky.

Blood stained the muddy ground red!
