The First Venerable of All Paths

"You bunch of chickens and dogs, how dare you bully my sister?"

With a chilling killing intent, Fang Xuan condensed it into a thread and killed the vice leader of the Blood Shark Gang. He then coldly looked at the Blood Shark Gang members around him.

His eyes held an undisguised murderous intent.

"Whoosh!"

Upon being glanced at by Fang Xuan, these ruthless members of the Blood Shark Gang were immediately terrified and took a step back, their faces filled with fear.

Even the deputy leader, who was at the peak of the first level of Body Refinement, was dead. How could they possibly be a match for Fang Xuan?

"Brothers, don't be afraid!"

At this moment, a minor leader shouted, "He's only at the Blood Creation Realm; his strength isn't that great. He only managed to trip up the deputy leader by using some kind of secret technique. With so many of us attacking together, we can definitely hack him to death!"

"That's right!"

One of the gang members shouted, "He definitely can't use that secret technique a second time!"

As he spoke, he wielded his long sword and slashed directly at Fang Xuan.

Seeing this, the others suppressed their fear and charged at Fang Xuan with their knives.

Faced with the onslaught of the crowd, Fang Xuan's lips curled into a mocking and bloodthirsty smile.

"Brother, get out of the way!"

Seeing the long sword about to fall on Fang Xuan, Fang Rou screamed in fright and closed her eyes in despair.

At the same time, Fang Xuan made a move.

He twisted his foot and, when the long sword was still an inch away from him, punched the other man in the chest.

"Bang!"

A dull thud was heard, and the Blood Shark Gang member trembled violently.

His eyes widened, and blood gushed from his mouth and nose.

As the opponent's longsword fell to the ground, Fang Xuan reached out and caught it in his hand, then slashed out with a backhand strike.

"Pfft!"

With the help of gravity, the longsword cleaved another Blood Shark gang member in two.

Blood splattered, staining the ground red.

Fang Xuan's white robes were also stained with streaks of blood.

After killing two people, Fang Xuan's killing intent grew even stronger.

Before the Blood Shark Gang members could react, Fang Xuan, wielding a long sword, pounced on them like a wolf among sheep.

"Pfft pfft pfft!"

Each time the long sword flips, it takes a life.

In the blink of an eye, several corpses appeared on the ground.

A faint smell of blood lingered above the abandoned mine.

Seeing their companions suffer heavy casualties, the Blood Shark gang members, who had been consumed by murderous intent, suddenly came to their senses.

"run!"

Someone shouted, and the others snapped out of their daze and turned to run.

"run?"

Fang Xuan grinned menacingly, the curve of his lips growing increasingly sinister.

"Can you escape?"

He swung his long sword, its gleam appearing even colder in the setting sun.

"laugh!"

Using his dragon-fish movement technique, Fang Xuan darted out like a blur, brushing past one of them.

When Fang Xuan caught up with the other person, blood splattered from the neck of the first person, and he fell backward to the ground.

With the aid of the dragonfish's movement technique, Fang Xuan's speed reached its limit.

Only one thought occupied his mind.

Kill all those beasts who dared to kidnap my sister!

Kill! Kill! Kill!

No mercy!

"Thump!"

With a horizontal slash of the long sword, a huge head flew into the air before crashing heavily to the ground.

He held a long sword with a rolled edge.

Fang Xuan wiped the blood off his face and looked into the distance.

The setting sun casts its last rays, staining the abandoned mine with blood.

A figure was fleeing for his life.

It was the same petty leader who had ordered everyone to attack together.

Seeing Fang Xuan slaughtering everyone like a god of death, he sensed the danger and fled in advance.

A cold glint flashed in his eyes as Fang Xuan unleashed the Dragon Fish Body Technique to its fullest extent.

"Sizzle!"

Golden light shimmered around Fang Xuan, faintly outlining the shape of a golden dragon-fish.

Fang Xuan had already darted several meters away.

In a few flashes, Fang Xuan had already arrived behind the minor leader and slashed down with his long sword.

Sensing the strong wind behind him, the leader flicked his arm, and two hidden arrows flew out, heading straight for Fang Xuan's face.

"Ding ding!"

He flipped the longsword, setting aside the two hidden arrows.

The long sword fell with unstoppable force.

"I'll fight you to the death!"

The sneak attack failed, and the petty leader roared in anger, wildly brandishing his long sword as he lunged at Fang Xuan.

Fang Xuan remained unmoved and slashed down with a blank expression.

"Snap!"

Two broken pieces of a knife lay on the ground.

It turned out that the force was too great, and the long swords in their hands broke at the same time.

But compared to Fang Xuan, whose body was as steady as Mount Tai, the small leader was blasted away by the terrifying force, his tiger's mouth a bloody mess.

Discarding the broken sword in his hand, Fang Xuan threw a punch at the opponent's face.

"Don't kill me!"

The other person screamed, their legs went weak, and they knelt on the ground.

He kowtowed repeatedly, weeping and begging for mercy, "I don't want to die, please let me go."

"Who sent you?"

Fang Xuan spoke coldly, his fist only a step away from his opponent.

"Would you let me go if I told you?"

The other person looked at Fang Xuan with hopeful eyes.

"You have no right to bargain!"

Fang Xuan's tone was cold and hard, his eyes sharp as knives.

"I......"

The gang leader swallowed hard and said, "Someone came to our boss, hoping we would kidnap your sister and force you to comply."

I thought that with the deputy leader personally taking action, plus their brotherhood, it would be a good start.

Dealing with Fang Xuan, who is at the Blood Creation Realm, is a sure thing.

who ever thought.

The deputy gang leader died in a single encounter.

So many brothers, all of them turned into corpses.

The young man before me is not a Blood Creation Realm cultivator at all; he is clearly a Body Refinement Realm martial artist!

"The leader of the Blood Shark Gang?"

Fang Xuan's eyes darted around, and he asked, "What is his cultivation level? Where is he now?"

"Our leader is a second-level Body Refinement Realm martial artist, but because of his special cultivation technique, his physical body is so strong that even a third-level Body Refinement Realm martial artist is no match for him."

Since it concerned their lives and fortunes, the low-ranking leader dared not conceal anything.

They revealed everything, including the Blood Shark Gang's hideout and personnel.

"I've said everything I needed to say."

The henchman pleaded, "I have an eighty-year-old mother to support and a three-year-old child to raise. I can't die!"

"What does it have to do with me?"

Fang Xuan kicked out, sending his opponent flying several meters away.

When he landed, all the bones in his body were broken.

"you......"

He stared wide-eyed at Fang Xuan in disbelief.

"Anyone who bullies my sister deserves to die!"

Fang Xuan didn't even glance at the other person before turning and leaving.

"Well......"

Upon hearing this, the henchman let out a bitter laugh and died.

"Little sister, I'm sorry, it's my fault for not protecting you well."

Fang Xuan untied his younger sister, Fang Rou, and looked guilty.

"Brother, are you alright?"

Seeing Fang Xuan's clothes stained with blood, Fang Rou felt so heartbroken that tears streamed down her face.

She was more concerned about whether her brother was injured than about herself.

"I'm fine, brother."

Fang Xuan gently patted his little sister's head, feeling both deeply moved and lingering fear.

Fang Xuan would never forgive himself if anything happened to his well-behaved and sensible younger sister.

The thought of this caused a surge of killing intent to resurface in Fang Xuan's eyes.

"Swish, swish, swish!"

Just then, ten figures appeared in front of Fang Xuan with lightning speed.

It was Zhan Yi and his group.

He stared at the corpses strewn across the ground, his eyes wide with shock.

These Blood Shark Gang members, though of average strength, are ruthless and vicious.

Even martial artists at the Body Refinement Realm wouldn't dare to confront him head-on.

However, they were all killed!

As expected of the young master.

This strength is truly terrifying.

"Greetings, Young Master!"

Suppressing his shock, Zhan Yi knelt on one knee and said in a deep voice, "Your subordinate is late in rescuing you, young master! Please forgive me!"

"Get up, everyone."

Fang Xuan said calmly, "Escort my sister home, protect her closely, and absolutely do not allow any further accidents to occur."

After this incident, Fang Xuan finally understood.

He couldn't be with his sister all the time.

It would be better to have these guards protect my sister's safety closely.

Zhan Yi and the others were extremely loyal to him, and with them around, Fang Xuan could feel much more at ease.

"yes!"

Zhan Yi immediately agreed.

"Brother, what about you?"

Fang Rou took Fang Xuan's hand and said, "Aren't you going back?"

"I have some things to take care of."

Fang Xuan smiled and said, "You go home first, I'll be back soon."

"Brother, are you going to cause trouble for the Blood Shark Gang?"

Fang Rou wasn't stupid; she quickly guessed Fang Xuan's plan.

Her little face was full of worry: "Brother, the Blood Shark Gang is bloodthirsty and has a terrible reputation. You'd better not go."

Even she had heard of the Blood Shark Gang's fearsome reputation.

They didn't want Fang Xuan to take any risks.

Zhan Yi also advised, "Young Master, I know you are very strong, but it is not wise for you to go looking for trouble with the Blood Shark Gang alone."

The Blood Shark Gang has dozens of members, and its leader is a martial artist at the second level of the Body Refinement Realm.

The young master is only at the Blood Creation Realm. Although he is strong in combat, he is no match for many opponents.

"I know what I'm doing."

Fang Xuan said to Fang Rou, "Little sister, listen to me, go back with Zhan Yi and the others first. I promise you, I will come back safe and sound."

"All right."

Seeing Fang Xuan's insistence, Fang Rou said, "Brother, I'll stay home and wait for you obediently. You must come back."

"it is good."

Fang Xuan nodded.

After his younger sister left, Fang Xuan looked at a distant, sprawling mountain range.

The Blood Shark Gang's lair is hidden in this Broken Soul Mountain Range.

"Body Refinement Realm, Level Two?"

Fang Xuan's eyes flashed with a cold light: "If you've messed with me, even if it's a dragon's den or a tiger's lair, I, Fang Xuan, will brave it today!"

He flicked his clothes and strode towards the Soul-Shattering Mountains.

......

The Soul-Shattering Mountains.

It is a vast mountain range that stretches for thousands of miles.

Within the mountains, countless monsters thrive and multiply, making it a forbidden zone for humans.

Even martial artists at the Qi Gathering Realm dare not easily set foot inside.

Therefore, the Blood Shark Gang has established its stronghold here, taking advantage of its unique terrain, and has been unable to eradicate it over the years.

Wankou Mountain is a peak in the Duanhun Mountain Range.

It is named for its shape, which resembles the mouth of a bowl.

The Blood Shark Gang's stronghold is located in this Bowl-shaped Mountain.

It was called their stronghold, but it was really just a few simple wooden and stone houses.

Night falls.

The mountain monsters roared in unison.

This was already commonplace for the Blood Shark Gang members.

Wankou Mountain is located on the outer edge of the Broken Soul Mountain Range, and few monsters dare to venture in.

The mountain pass is the only road in and out of Wankou Mountain.

A Blood Shark Gang henchman yawned and relieved himself.

Having taken care of his personal needs, he pulled up his pants and was about to leave when he suddenly caught a glimpse of a figure out of the corner of his eye.

The figure flashed by.

The henchman rubbed his eyes, but found nothing.

"Are you seeing things?"

He didn't care and staggered towards the wooden house.

The sounds of drinking games and shouting could be heard coming from inside the house, indicating that people were drinking together.

The moment the henchman's hand touched the door, a hand reached out from behind and covered his mouth.

"Waaaaah!"

The henchman struggled desperately, but the hand suddenly tightened its grip and snapped his neck.

After throwing the henchman's corpse on the ground, Fang Xuan kicked open the door.

Fang Xuan grinned as he met the stunned gazes of the henchmen inside the room.

"It's late, everyone should get going."
