The assassins from the Dark River all around moved slowly toward Lei Wujie in unison, their swords gleaming with a chilling light.

Seeing this, Li Hanyi swung her Iron Horse Ice River sword at the Dark River assassins.

As cries of agony rang out, the Dark River assassins surrounding Lei Wujie were all turned into ice sculptures.

Lei Wujie looked up wearily at Li Hanyi.

"Sister, they're all dead. Master, elders, and the patriarch are all dead."

Lei Wujie burst into tears.

The screams had just been heard and attracted the attention of the Dark River assassins.

When Su Huai saw that the person who came was Li Hanyi, he couldn't help but curse inwardly, "The Tang Clan is a bunch of useless trash."

He glanced at Lei Wujie, then waved his hand, signaling everyone to retreat.

Su Huai glanced meaningfully at Li Hanyi. If he weren't worried that the devil would come to retaliate on Yutian, he would have kept Li Hanyi at Lei Family Fort today.

"Did I let you go?"

Li Hanyi angrily rebuked.

The Iron Horse Ice River sword in his hand unleashed a powerful, extremely cold sword intent that enveloped Su Huai.

Upon seeing this, Su Huai immediately retreated and fled. The Dark River assassins he left behind turned into ice sculptures, which finally crashed to the ground and shattered into countless pieces.

With Li Hanyi's arrival, the Dark River assassins retreated in an orderly fashion, leaving Lei Wujie the last survivor of the entire Lei Family Fortress.

Meanwhile, in Wushuang City, the five elders emerged from the secret passage.

Looking at Song Yan Hui in the main seat, the First Elder spoke directly.

"Yan Hui, you've done a great job all these years."

Hearing the veiled meaning in the elder's words, Song Yan snorted coldly.

"Elder, please speak frankly."

Song Yan took a sip of tea and said irritably.

"Over the years, Wushuang City has gone from decline to resurgence, all thanks to your management, Yan Hui."

“You are a talent for restoring the dynasty, but what Wushuang City needs now is someone who can expand its territory.”

The elder's words elicited a cold laugh from Song Yan.

"Your so-called expansion of territory is nothing more than being an ambitious person."

The Grand Elder did not deny it, but nodded directly.

"Correct."

"From today onwards, you no longer need to worry about any affairs in the city, big or small. Leave it to Songtao."

As soon as the elder finished speaking, the doors to the council hall were pushed open.

Ye Songtao walked in from outside.

"Senior brother, it's been a long time."

Ye Songtao's hearty laughter revealed his smugness.

Song Yan looked back at Ye Songtao, feeling as uncomfortable as if she had swallowed a fly.

"I never had much interest in the position of the city lord of Wushuang City."

“But Songtao, he is not qualified to sit in this position.”

Song Yan replied firmly.

The expression on their faces as they looked at Ye Songtao was full of mockery.

"What did you say?"

Ye Songtao drew his long sword, pointed it at Song Yanhui, and angrily questioned her.

“Song Tao’s martial arts skills were inferior to mine back then. That’s why he left Wushuang City. Now you have brought him back.”

"It's just because he's easier to control and more willing to follow your orders."

“I know you are dissatisfied with me, but it is not my responsibility that Ye Dingzhi’s son was not brought back.”

"You all know how powerful the Demon Sword Immortal Yu Tian is. You may want to die, but I don't."

Song Yan said angrily.

"Yan Hui, you have overstepped your bounds."

The elder spoke calmly, but his tone revealed his dissatisfaction with Song Yan Hui.

But Song Yan Hui seemed to ignore this completely.

“I can give up being the city lord, but I should have the authority to recommend someone.”

Song Yan said calmly.

Since Wuxin hadn't been captured and taken to Wushuang City, he already knew that the five elders would force him to give up his position in Wushuang City.

In their eyes, the failure to capture Wuxin was due to their own incompetence. They were no longer willing to obey their orders.

Therefore, I will have to give up this position sooner or later, but for the future of Wushuang City, the position of city lord must not be handed over casually.

"of course."

The Grand Elder said calmly.

Ye Songtao, holding a long sword, pointed it at Lu Yuzhai beside Song Yanhui and asked angrily.

"This kid?"

Lu Yuzhai snorted coldly, too lazy to pay attention to Song Tao.

"You little brat, you want to be the city lord? Ask the sword in my hand if it's willing."

Song Yan glanced at Ye Songtao and snorted coldly.

"Indeed, just as you said, he's a little kid."

"Wushuang!"

As Song Yanhui's voice faded, Wushuang, carrying the Wushuang Sword Box on her back, yawned and slowly walked in from outside.

"Peerless Sword Box?"

The five elders gasped inwardly.

"You're here, Master."

Wushuang, carrying the Wushuang Sword Box, slammed into Ye Songtao, then arrogantly walked over and sat down next to Song Yanhui.

"So it's you, little brat, who wants to steal my position as city lord?"

Ye Songtao angrily questioned.

Wushuang rolled her eyes, too lazy to argue with Ye Songtao.

"Uncle, who are you?"

A smile appeared on Ye Songtao's lips.

"Ye Songtao".

His arrogant demeanor made him seem as if he had made a name for himself in the martial arts world.

"Oh. I don't think I've heard of that."

Wushuang picked at her ear with her little finger, her face full of disdain.

"you."

Ye Songtao was so angry that he wanted to curse, but Song Yanhui interrupted him directly.

"I've never heard of him before. Wushuang is in your hands. Defeat him, and you will be the lord of Wushuang City."

Song Yan looked at Ye Songtao with a mocking expression.

"Okay Master."

Wushuang slammed the Wushuang Sword Box heavily onto the ground and yawned.

"Let's fight quickly."

Wushuang said, bored.

"If you don't come down, how are we supposed to fight?" (Qian Nuozhao)

Ye Songtao pointed his sword at Wushuang and questioned her.

"They really have never seen anything like the world."

After Wushuang made a sarcastic remark, the Wushuang Sword Box opened one side instantly, revealing six flying swords emitting a chilling light.

"go."

After Wushuang casually uttered a sentence, six flying swords instantly flew out of the sword box and attacked Ye Songtao.

In just two rounds, Wushuang severed Ye Songtao's head.
