Chapter 1329: The smile of the sword God (7)
Translator: 549690339
When the blade of the sword cut through Liu Xilai’s throat, there was only one word left in his heart: “regret.”
Only when there was concern would there be regret.
The thing that Liu Xilai was concerned about was not his own life.
More than 20 years ago, when he was defeated by scholar black bamboo, he had already thought of himself as a dead man.
And when he lost everything, it was the Xie family who reached out to help him, allowing him to live like a human again.
!!Therefore, Liu Xilai didn’t live his life for himself, but for the Xie family … To repay their kindness.
Compared to his own life, Liu Xilai was more concerned about the honor and disgrace of the Xie family.
Unfortunately, he still failed to protect Xie Wuhua.
Liu Xilai was indeed old. Before the age of forty,”omnipresent hands” had never made a wrong judgment. The only time he misjudged his opponent’s strength was after the age of forty. And that oversight had directly caused him to ruin his own Jianghu path.
Today, he had made another mistake, and this time … It was even more serious.
Before Leng yuqiu had said,”it’s up to me where, when, and who I kill.” Liu Xilai had thought that the situation was still under control.
However, Leng yuqiu’s aura changed the moment she said that …
At that moment, he no longer concealed his surging sword intent, nor did he conceal his killing intent.
It was also at this moment that Liu Xilai realized something. A terrifying thing. Xuxu and Leng yuqiu’s martial arts cultivation was much higher than he had expected … A lot!
From the very beginning, Leng yuqiu had not been meditating on the bed. Instead, she had been practicing her sword.
Perhaps some people would find it strange that a person sitting on the bed with his legs crossed and eyes closed … Could that be considered as practicing the sword?
Generally speaking … Not.
However, Leng yuqiu was obviously not in this “ordinary” category.
When a person’s martial arts had reached a certain realm, their training method would not be stagnant. For those people, the cultivation of “form” was less efficient than the cultivation of “will.”
Of course, there were very few people like that. In the entire Wulin, they were as rare as Phoenix Feathers and Qilin horns. Even the current head of the Xie family, Xie Xiuwen, had yet to reach this realm.
However, Leng yuqiu, a man who looked to be in his thirties, had such cultivation.
Thus, Liu Xilai, who understood this, quickly changed his attitude and tried to escape. He thought that … With the reputation of the Xie family and his humble attitude … The other party would not attack him for such an offense.
However, Leng yuqiu’s next words made uncle Liu feel as if he had fallen into an ice cave.
Not only did he not let the two leave, but he also told them the reason why he killed beard MA. It was because the other party had disturbed his “sword practice”.
Xie Wuhua was an innocent young master, but his words were a little strange. However, in Liu Xilai’s ears … It was like the roar of a death knell.
At this point, Liu Xilai chose to kneel … His last sentence was to announce that he was willing to sacrifice his life and dignity to save Xie Wuhua’s life.
However, Leng yuqiu did not even agree to this request.
Perhaps … Xie Wuhua was lucky. He didn’t know what had happened in this room until his death. He didn’t have to experience shock, fear, pain, despair, and regret like uncle Liu.
He just died in shock. He died quickly and without any pain.
…………
His body fell to the ground, and his sword returned to its sheath.
Leng yuqiu sat back on the bed and took a deep breath.
His sword killed without getting stained with blood.
However, he was rather bloodthirsty.
He liked to smell the fresh blood of those who had just died.
This scent was something that only the victor could enjoy. It reminded Leng yuqiu of the price of failure.
“You’re still the same …” Suddenly, another man’s voice rang out in the room. It was a gentle, deep male voice.”As long as you can find even the slightest reason to convince yourself, you can’t wait to kill.”
Leng yuqiu smiled when she heard the voice.
It was not a sneer or a sneer, but a happy smile that came from the heart.
“Ha … You’re fast.” Leng yuqiu smiled.
As he was speaking, another person appeared in the room to look at a masked Man in Black.
The door and windows of the guest room had not been opened. There were no pillars or cabinets in the room where one could hide. Even Leng yuqiu did not know how this person had entered.
But he did come in, and he came in quietly.
“Two unexpected helpers appeared, which allowed the mission to be completed ahead of time, so I arrived half a day earlier.” The masked man replied.
“A helper?” Leng yuqiu was suspicious.
“Don’t worry, these two are definitely reliable. ” The masked man said.
“I can’t believe you said ‘they’re reliable’…” Leng yuqiu mumbled,”could it be … They are …”
“Yes,” The masked man knew what he was going to say, so he interrupted him.
“I see.” Leng yuqiu nodded.”So … Shall we proceed with the plan?”
“Of course, but …” The masked man said as he looked down at the two bodies on the ground.”You really know how to cause trouble. Do you know who these two are?”
“I know.” Leng yuqiu replied calmly,”it’s just the young master and the Butler of the Xie family …” He paused for a moment before continuing,”after tomorrow, the entire Wulin will be our enemy. Do I need to worry about whether there will be a few more Xie family members?”
“Sigh …” The masked man sighed.”Fine … You’re right.”
He stepped forward and picked up Xie Wuhua’s sword.
“Leave this Ding Xiang sword to me. It might be of use.” The masked man picked up his sword and turned to Leng yuqiu.
“Yes, if you can get rid of the body as well, that would be even better.” The introverted Leng yuqiu was very relaxed in front of this person (and he did not intend to kill anyone at this moment). She even spoke to him in a joking tone.
“Stop dreaming. You have to think of a way to go. Otherwise, you can let them sleep with you.” After saying this, the masked man disappeared from the room. Just like when he came, he was silent and invisible …
…………
At the same time, on the first floor of the inn, in the guest room directly below Leng yuqiu’s room.
“Uh … This is blood, right …”
Flashes of sword looked up at the ceiling and saw blood dripping down from the cracks in the wooden boards. He read the words with a depressed expression.
He wanted to eat some of the food in the scenario to replenish his energy, but when he was about to pick up his chopsticks, the food was doused with some free ‘sauce’.
“It seems like something has happened upstairs.” Not a scaredy cat, who was also sitting at the dining table, also looked at the ceiling and replied.
“Why don’t we … Go up and take a look?” Young master Jian thought for a moment and said.
“Since we can’t have this meal anymore, let’s go up and take a look.” Young master Jian might be the manager of world of martial arts, but in this two-man team, not a scaredy cat was the ‘leader’. He still had to listen to her instructions on how to carry out the operation.
“Alright,” he said. Since the leader had spoken, young master Jian stood up and left without saying anything.
Not a scaredy cat also left the room with him. The two of them took a turn and went up the stairs to the second floor.
Flashes of sword was not like Xie Wuhua. He did not care about the “manners” of the pugilistic world. The moment he arrived in front of Leng yuqiu’s door, he started to smash it.
“Is anyone there?” Not only did young master Jian knock on the door, but he also called for it. He still felt that the first half of the sentence was not appropriate, so he immediately added,”is there anyone alive?”
In the room, Leng yuqiu was also stunned.”What kind of approach is this? All the Jianghu people in the town should know that I live in this house, and they would not call my door like this. But his voice and attitude did not sound like that of a shop assistant. Could it be … An officer who doesn’t know the rules?”
As he speculated, he walked to the door.
As she could not sense any inner energy from the person outside the room, Leng yuqiu was quite confident in her conclusion that the person was a ‘rash and inexperienced official’. Although this kind of person did not pose any threat to her, the method of closing the door and not leaving the room would not work on this passerby.
Creak creak
A few seconds later, Leng yuqiu opened the door.
A young man and a young woman appeared in front of him. They were dressed like Jianghu characters (like most Wuxia World scripts, the system adjusted the player’s image in the NPC’s eyes).
Leng yuqiu’s bad habit was acting up again. After opening the door, he only stared at the two players silently without uttering a single word.
Young master Jian and not a scaredy cat immediately discovered the corpse in the room and exchanged glances.
By right, at this moment, the person in the room should be the one to speak first. However, Leng yuqiu refused to speak. Therefore … The situation fell into a stalemate. The atmosphere was a little awkward.
“You just killed him?” After about ten seconds of silence, flashes of sword could not hold it in any longer. He tried to find something to say to Leng yuqiu.
Leng yuqiu muttered in her heart. The two of them did not seem to know her. They did not seem to be surprised or afraid of the corpse in the house.
“Hmm …” Leng yuqiu thought for a second and nodded.
“Oh …” Young master Jian also nodded.”That … The blood of the corpse seeped downstairs, so we came up to take a look.”
“Oh.” Leng yuqiu responded without saying anything else.
“What’s with the “Oh”?” At this moment, not a scaredy cat could no longer stand it. “There’s blood all over our food, and there’s also blood on the floor. You’re done with just an ‘Oh’?”
Leng yuqiu did not expect the other party to show such a tough attitude.”These two … They’re probably newbies, so they don’t know who I am … Nor do they know that the dead on the ground are Xie Wuhua and Liu Xilai …”
Thinking of this, he suddenly felt that the two of them were a little funny.
“Then, what do you suggest …” Leng yuqiu replied after a moment,”what should we do?”
“Nonsense, compensate me!” Not a scaredy cat said with conviction.
“Oh … How much do you want?” Leng yuqiu asked calmly.
“That’s hard to say. ” Not a scaredy cat said,”be reasonable … The compensation should be enough for us to get a new room.”
“That sounds reasonable,” Leng yuqiu nodded. Even though he said that, he stood there without moving. After five seconds, he spoke again,”but I want to know, if I don’t pay, what can you do?”
Leng yuqiu was rich.
Even if he didn’t have money, the two bodies on the ground had more than enough.
Moreover, Leng yuqiu had never been a money-grubber. For someone like him, the motivation that money could generate was close to non-existent.
Therefore, his reaction was not because he was reluctant to pay.
At that moment, Leng yuqiu was only acting out of interest.
Of course, he didn’t intend to kill them. He felt that there was no need to kill them.
Leng yuqiu only wanted to teach this ‘new’ couple a lesson. She wanted to tell them that the martial world was not a place to be reasonable.
In a sense, he wanted to’ help ‘the two people in front of him. Letting a person understand the unfairness of this world and the importance of power was indeed a kind act.
Those who had never experienced shamelessness would never understand true nobility. Morality that was beyond reality was just another kind of stupidity.
Originally … It was indeed such a thing.
However, Leng yuqiu did not encounter a newbie in the martial world. Instead, she encountered a Savage traveler from another world …
“Ha?” Flashes of sword was a little displeased when he saw how arrogant the other party was.
That was right. He did not know Leng yuqiu.
If he knew her … He would have chosen to stay calm and triggered a storyline where he would cooperate with Leng yuqiu.
But there was no’ if ‘…
The two of them were not very good at gathering information, but they were very good at fighting.
When flashes of sword heard the question, he blurted out,””Then I’ll teach you how to write the word” compensate. “”
