Reincarnation Girl Becomes Immortal

The Li family ahead is the weakest of the villains. According to the two intelligence reports, they only have one or two internal strength guards, which is not a concern.

It would be perfect to use it as a practice spot after a few days without drawing blood.

After saying that, Xi Heng casually walked forward, flicked his sword, and then swung it out. The red line rippled and shattered the lock, and the courtyard gate was immediately opened wide.

The next moment, she used her light-footed skill to transform into a blood-red shadow and rush towards the main house of her home, where candles were burning.

The Blood Clan members followed closely behind, attacking those who were near the candlelight and where the sounds were heard.

A red figure suddenly entered the room. Before anyone could scream, their head was thrown high into the air, and blood splattered everywhere, wetting the window frame and leaving red specks like plum blossoms.

After cleaning this area, they proceeded to another house.

After several rounds, they only encountered one Ming Jin master who came to defend them.

With a simple, effortless defensive counterattack, Xi Heng pierced the opponent's heart. He let the opponent cry out in pain and waited a while longer, but no other martial artists came.

"strangeness……"

She then leaped to a high place and looked around, but saw no distinguished person in the courtyard being escorted and protected by guards as they fled.

"That guy named Li Yuan doesn't seem to be here. Could it be that he was really frightened by the letter and dared not stay in the family, so he found somewhere else to hide?"

"Let's just kill a few random ones first, and then finish them off when he shows up later," Xi Heng thought.

A few minutes later, the people here either fled or died, and the once noisy clan settlement became an empty and silent place.

The ground was littered with numerous bloodied corpses, which fell into pools of red blood.

The lanterns hanging at the corners of the high pavilions in the courtyard still emitted a red glow, which reflected on the corpses, pools of blood, and the trees in the nearby stone pool, making the place seem like a ghostly realm.

After creating such a scene of annihilation, Xi Heng wiped the blade of his sword with the cloth on the corpse's surface when he suddenly heard a large, dark black dog barking wildly beside him.

She glanced at it with her bloodshot eyes filled with murderous intent, and the large dog, which was only a little over a meter tall and had a muscular body, immediately stopped barking and lay down, whimpering softly.

Xi Heng approached and gently patted the trembling puppy's head. He glanced back at the four Blood Child assassins, who had also finished their duties, and stood up, saying:

"Let's go, next place." Xi Heng said, then used his light footwork to disappear into the distance.

She refused to believe that these six treacherous officials would be so terrified by a letter and rumors that none of them would dare to confront her directly.

Of the entire family, only the large black dog remained, propping itself up on its limbs on the ground, turning its head left and right, and slowly and shakily walking in the desolate courtyard.

……

At the second Zhu family, Xi Heng finally encountered some decent resistance.

The family's courtyard was guarded by archers. As soon as she broke through the door, the entire building turned into an arrow tower. Below, a martial artist with the Dark Force Great Perfection, along with three ordinary Dark Force practitioners and more than ten Bright Force Great Perfection practitioners, protected the family courtyard.

Xi Heng stepped forward and destroyed the arrow tower with a single sword strike, then used his sword techniques to swiftly and decisively kill several Dark Force cultivators.

They rushed to the enemy family's main house, where even the family's private soldiers, who had already formed ranks, appeared and resisted with spears.

Training a private army is a serious crime, especially in the capital. If His Majesty finds out, no one can protect this clan.

But with all the hidden experts killed, they had no choice but to use all their strength.

However, for Xi Heng, who had been fighting against Yan Meng's army for a long time, these soldiers were no threat at all. He casually unleashed a sword aura that could slice through even a large shield covered with iron.

In her eyes, the defenses that this family had painstakingly put together were nothing more than a makeshift charade.

As long as the killing intent is unleashed, most of them will feel the urge to retreat. If the sword energy is used to kill a group of them, there will be a rout.

The fleeing soldiers triggered a chain reaction throughout the entire garrison, with large numbers of servants fleeing in panic before even engaging in battle.

Within two or three minutes, it encountered no further resistance.

Halfway through the fight, they saw a familiar-looking official.

The other party, dressed in armor that did not fit his obese body and holding a long-handled broadsword, appeared from under the main house of the family. He was Zhu Xun, one of the targets on this journey, who was in charge of the Privy Council.

He seemed to have not used martial arts for a long time. Even though one could see some traces of martial arts training, his movements were stiff and his steps were unsteady. He was only trying to project an imposing presence as he walked forward step by step.

"When I heard it yesterday, I didn't believe it. I never imagined that the so-called Compassionate Saintess was really you..." He resisted the overwhelming killing intent and said in a deep voice:

"Your Highness, Princess."

Xi Heng tilted her head. She remembered that she was wearing a mask, so how was she recognized?

"You old fogies' intelligence network isn't bad, no wonder the last one escaped." She removed her mask and clicked her tongue.

"Then why don't you run away?"

"Where can I escape to? I just didn't expect His Majesty would actually turn against me." Having said this, the man glanced around at the numerous corpses and sighed softly.

“I am the maternal uncle of Your Majesty’s maternal relatives. When she was young, I was the one who took the best care of her and her mother. I never thought that after my niece became empress, I would end up like this. It is indeed as the rumors say... that emperors are ruthless.”

"..."

Xi Heng hesitated for a moment upon hearing this, and then heard the man ask:

"Who are you going to kill next?"

“Cai Yuan, Li Shimei, Wang Xiangfu, Liang Cegong.” She recited these names fluently.

“A highly skilled Buddhist master is currently visiting Cai Yuan’s home. His strength is unfathomable. Liang Cegong has spent gold to hire the Black Ling Blade Master, a martial artist at the Transformation Realm, for protection… Could you possibly kill him?”

Upon hearing the words "Master of the Black Blade," Xi Heng's killing intent suddenly intensified, and he replied, "I will definitely kill him."

"Very well! Don't let me be alone on my journey to the underworld!"

Having said that, the other party immediately brandished his long-handled broadsword and charged towards her—

……

Chapter 115, Who is the Visitor?

hum-

Seeing the enemy approaching, Xi Heng lightly turned his wrist, and the tip of his sword pointed steadily forward, making a trembling sound.

The enemy raised his long-handled broadsword high, and in an instant, it came crashing down like a thunderbolt.

She lightly touched the ground with her toes, and her figure surged forward with the force of her entire body.

The red figure flashed behind the knife-wielder in the blink of an eye, the broadsword fell to the ground, and her sword severed the enemy's neck.

The sword was easily flicked, and blood sprayed outwards with a hissing sound.

It splashed on the ground, leaving a scarlet streak.

The person behind him also leaned forward.

With his last bit of strength, he held his body up for a few seconds, and a few faint breaths escaped from his severed throat, but they were so muffled that it was impossible to hear what he was saying.

As she sheathed her sword, her opponent fell to the ground, lifeless.

After finishing off the bloated, corrupt official who seemed to have not truly fought in over a decade, Xi Heng looked back and saw that the entire clan was now completely silent.

The surrounding area reeked of blood; most of her clansmen had already been dealt with by the Blood Child assassins she had hired.

People fled in all directions, several houses caught fire, and in the midst of the panic, no one cared.

Xi Heng glanced around and saw that the fire only affected the stables and chicken coops, which were far from the main house. He figured it wouldn't burn the entire family estate to ashes, so he didn't pay much attention to it.

If the fire reaches the main house, she might really have to find a way to put it out.

This corrupt official's family has been almost completely wiped out. When the Imperial Guards search and confiscate their property, they will likely reclaim all the real estate and houses in this area for the imperial court.

Although Zhao Chuxiao is currently in charge of the court, once Xi Heng becomes emperor, everything will belong to her.

It would still be a little regrettable if it were burned to ashes right before our eyes.

After dealing with the Zhu family members in this area of ​​land, she did not leave immediately. Instead, she circled the area, paying attention to any sources of fire such as lanterns and candles, and then checked the granary to see if it was safe before finally stepping away.

The four shadowy figures of the Blood Clan followed the red figure that Xi Heng had transformed into and immediately headed towards the Liang family's ancestral land.

The Zhu family's and Liang family's ancestral territories are not far apart; a martial artist with the lightness skill of a Transcendent Realm expert can reach them in just a few minutes.

During the journey, Xi Heng's murderous intent grew stronger.

With each step he took on the rooftop using his light-footed skill, he would recall his previous life and the scene of his first battle with the Black Ling Blade Master in the palace.

At that time, that guy had absolutely no sense of martial ethics. He used his strength as a Transformation Realm martial artist to crush several Dark Realm martial artists in the court, showing no shame whatsoever.

Although Xi Heng often treats others this way, he cannot accept being treated the same way himself, and he must take revenge in this lifetime.

Although the Black Blade Master had no idea about the previous grudges or where he had offended her.

But Xi Heng didn't care about any of that.

Today, she happened to hear the name of the Black Blade Master, who happened to be protecting the person she was about to kill, and she happened to be holding a sword—everything was just right.

It seems that it won't be long before we see the Black Blade Master's round head, devoid of hair, beard, and eyebrows, being chopped off by her sword.

Xi Heng slightly curled the corners of his mouth, and as his killing intent grew, the red light in his eyes became more and more obvious due to the blood and qi in his body.

Gradually, the cluster of houses with some lights on in the distance, the so-called Liang family mansion, drew closer and closer.

The girl used more force to smash several more roof tiles, increasing her speed even further.

It flew dozens of meters away and landed before the wide gate and long courtyard wall of the Liang family mansion.

Looking to both sides, one could hardly see the edge of the courtyard wall; the extent of this clan's territory was unknown.

The four burly guards standing in front of the Liang family mansion, holding iron-covered wooden sticks, looked over upon hearing Xi Heng's undisguised thud as he landed.

"Who goes there!" they shouted as they saw a figure emerge from the darkness.

"The people I want to kill right now are not you." Xi Heng unleashed a dense killing intent: "I'll give you three seconds. If you don't run, you die."

"One." Her voice was flat, as if she were just chatting casually.

But the intense killing intent, coupled with those inhuman red eyes, was enough to instill fear.

The guards at the gate felt a chill run down their spines as they sensed the murderous aura, and instinctively took a step back.

A burly but cowardly guard behind him hesitated for a second before stepping back to the side.

Upon seeing this, two of the other three people nearby retreated along with him, while the third, who appeared to be the gatekeeper captain, angrily shouted at the coward's name, telling him to get back.

Within seconds, the four people displayed different postures.

Xi Heng didn't pay much attention; all he could think about was how to kill the Black Ling Blade Master.

When the count reached one, step forward.

Three people have escaped, and one person has not, so one person will die.

A flash of cold light appeared in his hand, and with a light step, he delivered a fatal blow to the throat.

The gatekeeper could no longer utter a sound, only managing a gurgling sound from his throat before collapsing to his knees, clutching his neck with both hands.

She stepped over the still convulsing person lying on the ground, raised her right leg, mustered her strength, and stomped forward.

With a loud bang, a hole wide enough for two people suddenly appeared in the center of the thick, wide red door in front of them.

Countless wood chips and pieces flew everywhere, spraying backwards like an explosion.

The deafening roar was like thunder, sure to awaken many sleeping people within a kilometer radius.

Xi Heng burst through the door without any hesitation, making no attempt to conceal his appearance, and strode forward.

The commotion clearly caused chaos within the Liang family compound, and as the candlelight flickered, many servants from the outer courtyard rushed out, clutching oil lamps and lanterns.

However, as soon as they stepped out of the room and before they could even see anything clearly, they felt a chill run through their entire bodies.

Suddenly, a woman screamed in a hoarse voice that she had encountered a ghost, and she and a group of maids fled to the inner courtyard.

Upon hearing this, most of the male servants also retreated.

Only a few bold ones dared to extend their oil lamps forward so that they could see the figures ahead.

Xi Heng was covered in blood, wearing a pale mask, his hair was graying, and blood dripped from his sword.

No matter how you look at it, he doesn't seem like an ordinary person.

The servants, of varying heights and builds, remembered the word "ghost" they had just heard. Cold sweat broke out on their foreheads, and their fear grew increasingly intense. Finally, they dropped their lanterns and oil lamps, and cried out in trembling voices, "Don't come any closer!" before turning and fleeing.

The girl, filled with murderous intent, clicked her tongue when she saw the oil lamps fall to the ground, and then raised her sword to kill the few guys who had carelessly thrown the oil lamps away.

"Don't you have any fire safety awareness?" She twirled her sword, bent down to pick up the oil lamp, and tossed it into the empty courtyard, letting the oil splatter onto the soil and slowly burn away.

Then, Xi Heng followed the fleeing servants, bypassing the screen wall, the west wing, and the hanging flower gate, arriving at a more spacious central courtyard.

The middle courtyard was not as spacious and quiet as the front courtyard.

On the contrary, lanterns were hung on both sides of the surrounding road, and a grand feast was set up in the spacious wooden pavilion next to the stone pool.
