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

The martial arts expert from Linshui County, kneeling on the ground, hurriedly said:

"Not bad!"

"It was because Xiao Bieli killed the experts outside that we were able to get in."

"Moreover, we saw Xiao Bieli come in with our own eyes, but we didn't encounter him along the way."

Guan Tianwu frowned:

"Didn't you hear any fighting on the road?"

He personally witnessed Xue Zhou leaving Yue Ji in the cave. Even if Xiao Bieli possessed martial arts skills comparable to a fifth-rank master, he would definitely be injured under Yue Ji's sneak attack.

Even if he didn't die, if he tried to escape outside, these people should have run into him.

Could there be a fork in the cave that they didn't notice when they came in?

The martial arts practitioner kneeling on the ground hurriedly said:

"We didn't hear any fighting, nor did we see Xiao Bieli, but we smelled blood on our way here. We don't know who left it."

Guan Tianwu: "Where did Xiao Bieli go?"

"The smell of blood? Could it be that Xiao Bieli was disposed of by Yue Ji, or that Yue Ji was injured?"

"Never mind Xiao Bieli for now. I can do without the Changhong Sword, but I want a share of what's inside the wooden box!" Qi Li, the 'Hibiscus Swordsman,' looked at the wooden box on the stone platform, a fiery glint in his eyes.

This was left behind by Luo Su, the 'Changhong Swordsman', and it's very likely that it contains a grandmaster's ultimate technique.

Xue Zhou is a true disciple of the Cangyuan Sword Sect, and he is not lacking in any grandmaster-level martial arts techniques.

He himself uses a sword, and if he could obtain a grandmaster's ultimate skill, he might have a chance to reach the grandmaster realm in the future.

At that time, he will become a powerful figure in the entire Manzhou region.

Xie Yuntao, the "Golden-Eyed Eagle," also spoke up:

“Young Master Xue, you are not lacking in sword techniques. The Changhong Sword is a top-quality weapon among famous weapons. You may take it with you. If there is the famous sword technique of the ‘Changhong Swordsman’ in the wooden box, I hope you can let me make a copy as well. Originally, you should take it with you.”

Although he was wary of Xue Zhou, who ranked 12th on the Dragon and Tiger List, none of the Three Rivers Alliance possessed a Grandmaster-level martial art, and he didn't even know how to reach the Grandmaster realm.

Even if he doesn't use a sword, if he could obtain the inheritance of a grandmaster, he might have a better chance by drawing inferences from other sources.

Besides, he's only fifty years old; it's not too late for him to learn swordsmanship now!

Qi Li nodded:

"That makes sense. We've gone through all this trouble, we can't just come here and not get anything in return, can we?"

Xue Zhou smiled, gave Xie Yuntao a deep look, then turned to Guan Tianwu and Wei Yong, and said calmly:

"Is that what you two think too?"

Wei Yong quickly replied:

"My Baiyun Manor will always stand with Young Hero Xue. My Baiyun Manor has no intention of coveting the contents of this wooden box!"

Guan Tianwu nodded and said:

"The Salt Gang and Young Master Xue have reached an agreement. I'm only here for Xiao Bieli!"

"Xiao Bieli killed my son, and today I will make him die!"

As soon as Guan Tianwu and Wei Yong spoke,

The faces of Xie Yuntao and Qi Li, known as the "Golden-Eyed Eagle," turned grim. They had assumed that Wei Yong and Guan Tianwu would also have some interest in the contents of the wooden box, since it concerned a Grandmaster.

But now that Guan Tianwu and Wei Yong are doing this, they are undoubtedly putting them in a very difficult position.

"hey-hey!"

Xie Yuntao smiled and said:

"My perspective was too narrow!"

"Brother Guan is right. I won't covet what's in the wooden box. Today, the main thing is to deal with Xiao Bieli."

Qi Li's face turned even uglier.

He was a swordsman by nature, and he genuinely wanted to inherit the legacy of the Changhong Swordsman.

But now that the situation has become like this, Qi Li has no choice but to speak:

"I don't want the stuff anymore..."

However, Qi Li hadn't finished speaking when

Chi!

Xue Zhou formed a sword shape with his fingers, and a glint of sword light emerged from his fingertips. The moment the sword light appeared, it split into four.

Upon seeing this, Qi Li's expression changed drastically as if he had seen a ghost. He leaped up and fled towards the entrance of the cave, simultaneously slashing out with his sword.

Sword energy surged!

boom!

Qi Li's limbs had already flown off, and his body crashed heavily not far from Xiao Bieli and the other person, with blood gushing from his mouth from time to time.

Wow——!

The whole place was in an uproar!

The people in the Twelve Linked Docks inside the cave were relieved. Fortunately, Elder Xie changed his attitude quickly, otherwise they would have been in trouble too!

As everyone knows,

Xie Yuntao and Wei Yong were both deeply shocked. They had dealt with Qi Li, the "Hibiscus Swordsman," before and were familiar with his martial arts skills.

Qi Li's swordsmanship is unpredictable and ruthless; even they could easily be in trouble if they were not careful.

But now, Xue Zhou has severed Qi Li's limbs without even drawing his sword.

Their strength was beyond their comprehension!

Are those who make it onto the Dragon and Tiger List really that far behind those on the list?

Xue Zhou stood with his hands behind his back, his gaze sweeping over the people in the cave, and said coldly:

"Don't dwell on things you shouldn't be thinking about!"

"The Long Rainbow Sword and the contents of this wooden box were both requested by Senior Brother Zhuo. Otherwise, why do you think the Salt Gang would do me a favor?"

"If any of you want a share, you can go and talk to Senior Brother Zhuo yourselves!"

Inside the cave, there was complete silence.

They naturally knew who the Senior Brother Zhuo that Xue Zhou mentioned was. Among the younger generation, only Zhuo Qingyun could be called Senior Brother by Xue Zhou!

at this time,

Blood continued to gush from Qi Li's mouth. He looked at Xiao Bieli and Ning Wanqing, who were hiding in the passageway, his mouth slightly agape.

"kill me!"

"kill me!"

There was no longer any desire for life in his eyes.

"Hey!"

Xiao Bieli let out a soft sigh. Xue Zhou's sword strike had not only severed Qi Li's limbs but also damaged Qi Li's heart meridian. Even if the bleeding was stopped, he wouldn't live for more than a few days.

Indeed, this is the true nature of the martial world—survival of the fittest!

However, if everyone in the martial arts world is friendly and respectful to each other, he won't have much room to maneuver!

Pointing out with my fingers!

A burst of energy struck Qi Li's heart, and a look of relief appeared on Qi Li's face.

[Experience +4000!]

"Who?"

Guan Tiannan suddenly turned his head and looked towards the entrance of the cave, shouting loudly.

Xie Yuntao and Wei Yong exchanged a glance, then leaped up and landed beside Qi Li's corpse.

Upon seeing the two figures standing at the entrance of the cave passage, both men showed surprise.

"Xiao Bieli, you actually dare to come?"

Xiao Bieli stepped out of the passage and said calmly:

"Why does everyone say that when they see me?"

"Don't you want me to come?"

Xie Yuntao looked behind Xiao Bieli and asked:

Where is Yue Ji?

Xiao Bieli didn't even glance at Xie Yuntao, but looked at Xue Zhou and said calmly:

"You sent Yue Ji to ambush me halfway, but now that I'm here, he's obviously dead!"

"But don't worry, since you met me today, your seventh day after death will be on the same day, so you'll have company on your journey to the underworld!"
