But he was always prudent in his work and would never carry evidence of wrongdoing on his person.

Therefore, for many years, it has never been discovered or any evidence has ever been found against it.

Now, she feels disappointed and frustrated with her son.

Upon hearing this, Zhu Chengzhu was filled with remorse.

But since things had come to this, he could only accept his fate and hurriedly asked, "Father, what should we do now?"

"Does my child have to die?"

"I don't want to die, Father! I'm your only son!"

Zhu Yang whispered closer and said, "Your evidence is irrefutable. Even if I use all my connections, it's too late to turn the tide and overturn the case."

"Then am I doomed?" Zhu Chengzhu asked in terror.

Zhu Yang said, "Don't worry, I have a way to keep you alive."

"You can just stay in prison and relax."

Although the verdict could not be overturned, Zhu Chengzhu was destined to be beheaded.

But the dead can be the subject of much discussion.

For example, substituting one thing for another, or disguising oneself!

If they could find someone to replace Zhu Chengzhu, their son could survive.

of course.

From now on, he will have no choice but to leave the capital and eke out a living elsewhere.

But at least, I won't be without descendants.

This is Zhu Yang's method.

Zhu Chengzhu breathed a sigh of relief after hearing his father's assurance.

But soon, his face turned resentful, and he said ferociously, "Father, I want revenge! I want Li Xuan dead!"

Zhu Yang nodded, revealing murderous intent: "Don't worry, I'll deal with Li Xuan."

He will never let Li Xuan get away with harming his only son.

Since Zhang Yi isn't making a move, then it's his turn.

evening.

Li Xuan bid farewell to Haoqi Tower and returned to his residence.

The moonlight was hazy on the road.

When they reached a secluded spot, Li Xuan stopped.

He looked ahead, his lips moving slightly as he said softly, "Come out."

Tatata!

From the darkness emerged a man in black, wielding a long knife, his eyes gleaming with murderous intent.

Li Xuan glanced at it and said, "Zhu Yang, you really did choose to make a move!"

The man in black paused.

He was Zhu Yang, and he came to kill Li Xuan.

Zhu Yang's expression changed, and he immediately released his senses to explore the surroundings.

Li Xuan said calmly, "No need to investigate, it's just the two of us."

After investigating, Zhu Yang discovered that it was indeed just him and Li Xuan.

Seeing this, he didn't try to hide it and said, "Li Xuan, this day next year will be the anniversary of your death."

Li Xuan said, "Zhu Yang, guess why I am so calm and fearless?"

Zhu Yang said coldly, "This is just a pretense."

The words fell.

Without further ado, he immediately charged forward.

The longer the night drags on, the more uneasy one becomes.

His long sword flashed with a tremendous cold light, slashing down on Li Xuan.

"die!"

Li Xuan drew his long sword from his waist and charged forward.

when!

After the collision, the two sides were evenly matched.

"impossible!"

Zhu Yang's expression changed drastically, his face filled with horror.

He was at the mid-stage of the fourth rank, while Li Xuan was only at the early stage of the fifth rank. It was impossible for them to withstand his full-force attack.

Now, however, the two sides are evenly matched!

"nothing is impossible!"

Li Xuan said calmly.

"Oh, right, I almost forgot to tell you something."

"Zhang Yi and the others have been killed by me today."

boom!

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhu Yang's pupils contracted.

"Zhang Yi and the others are dead?"

He always believed that Zhang Yi and others were the ones who caused the problem, and that's why he didn't take action against Li Xuan.

But unexpectedly, he was killed by Li Xuan.

"You actually possess mid-stage fourth-rank cultivation!"

"Damn it, how can you be so strong?"

After the initial shock, a serious look appeared in Zhu Yang's eyes.

Because Li Xuan had the same cultivation level as him, he simply couldn't kill Li Xuan.

"Who told you I only have a mid-stage fourth-rank cultivation level?"

Li Xuan glanced at Zhu Yang.

next moment.

Unleashing their power, they repelled Zhu Yang.

Then he slashed forward with his sword, the sword energy whistling.

"Third grade!"

"No!"

Zhu Yang looked terrified and hurriedly tried to defend himself.

But the difference between the third and fourth ranks is like heaven and earth.

Pfft!

The next moment, he was cleaved in two by the sword energy and died instantly.

"Vulnerable!"

Li Xuan glanced at it and shook his head.

Then the figure flickered and disappeared.

Li Xuan has just left.

"Hurry up!"

"There's some noise over here."

"There are powerful sounds of battle."

"Go check it out immediately."

The night watchman on patrol immediately rushed over.

Soon, they saw the dead Zhu Yang.

"That is?"

"Golden gong!"

"Zhu Yang, Zhu Jinluo!"
