The strongest warrior of the Great Qian Dynasty

hum!

A flash of sword light instantly slashed through the pitch-black night.

Li Qingshan, sword in hand, charged toward Granny Wang with incredible speed, arriving in the blink of an eye.

"A mere peak internal energy cultivator dares to raise his sword against this old man? He simply doesn't know the meaning of death..."

Before Granny Wang could finish speaking, Li Qingshan's sword light arrived in front of him.

Grandma Wang, who was originally preparing to humiliate Li Qingshan, suddenly changed her expression. Her aged face trembled a few times, and she hurriedly waved her cane.

when!

The fine iron cane that struck the Nine Yang Sword was instantly split in two by the sharp sword energy.

Li Qingshan's attacks did not stop; on the contrary, they became several times faster.

Pfft!

As the sword flashed, large patches of the brocade on Granny Wang's body were stained crimson with blood.

She was clearly a veteran of countless battles, and at this moment she narrowly avoided a fatal wound.

But at this moment, the deep lines on her old face began to tremble uncontrollably, and she cried out in near despair:

"No, you're not at the peak of internal energy, you're at the True Qi Realm. Damn it, damn it! If you had revealed your strength earlier, how could I have treated you like this..."

"Li Qingshan, stop immediately! I raised the Fourth Miss myself. If she finds out... you killed me, she will definitely see you as an enemy."

However, the only response the old man received was an even more ferocious sword strike.

Even though Granny Wang tried her best to stop him, she couldn't stop Li Qingshan's attack.

After all, she was old, and had spent so many years in the Changning Marquis's mansion, acting as a servant.

How could someone who lives a life of luxury possibly compete with Li Qingshan's youth and vigor?

Pfft!

Finally, with the blade of the Nine Yang Sword suddenly growing out, Grandma Wang's chest was instantly torn apart.

Her clothes and status, which she had always been so proud of, had all turned into a pile of dead bodies.

However, Li Qingshan did not sheathe his sword; instead, he looked to his left.

There, several figures were rapidly approaching.

……

Several figures, accompanied by voices, came from the alley entrance.

"Brother, you know, our leader is really something. How could anyone possibly mess with our massive Water Snake Gang?"

"Who says otherwise? If you ask me, we should drink and eat heartily."

"Stop talking nonsense. Big Brother probably doesn't want to patrol here either, but these are all orders from the Hall Master."

The burly man leading the group couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of saliva and curse.

"I don't want to do this damn patrol job either. Everyone says we should find the witch of the Pure World Sect, but how could we possibly find her?"

"If it were that easy, those gentlemen and constables would have found them long ago. Why would it be our turn, you worthless bastards?"

Moreover, the leader's eyes flickered, as if he had something he didn't say.

He cursed inwardly.

"Damn it, even if we really encounter that witch, what can we do?"

"We're just a bunch of trash who haven't even scratched the surface of martial arts; we'd probably be hacked to pieces the moment we met."

However, before the group had even gotten close to the alley entrance, the leader began to sniff the air around them.

"Strange, why is there a bloody smell? Could it be that someone nearby is having a good meal and secretly slaughtering this chicken and sheep?!"

As they spoke, the group approached.

However, before they even saw the corpse at Li Qingshan's feet, their legs began to feel weak.

"Mr. Li... Mr. Li!"

The thugs from the Water Snake Gang quickly greeted Li Qingshan.

"I remember you, your name is Liu San, right?!"

Looking at this familiar-looking thug, Li Qingshan said casually.

Liu San?

The group exchanged glances, seemingly preparing to remind Li Qingshan that their elder brother didn't have that name.

However, "Liu San" immediately slid in with a tackle:

"Thank you for bestowing this name upon me, Master Li. From now on, I will be called Liu San."

"I must thank Master Li for his gift. With that boxing manual, I feel that my chances of entering the martial arts world are getting greater and greater."

I hope that Master Li can give me a job in the future. I will do my best and dare not delay in the slightest.

Li Qingshan couldn't help but chuckle slightly upon hearing this.

It's fortunate that these street thugs were perceptive enough to choose to beg for mercy immediately and even help him solve the problem.

"Sure, once you enter the martial arts world, you'll need a lot of resources. You can come find me at Shuiyun Pavilion then!"

As for the corpse I disposed of, I advise you not to touch its belongings. If anyone discovers it, I won't even need to lift a finger; the Marquis of Changning's mansion will crush you all.

Li Qingshan said calmly.

but.

The thugs present were struck dumb, their faces turning deathly pale instantly.

Even Liu San, the leader, was swaying at this moment, seemingly never expecting that the manager of Shuiyun Pavilion would choose to attack the people of the Marquis's mansion.

"Don't worry, Mr. Li, I will definitely handle this matter perfectly."

Gritting his teeth, Liu San stepped forward and hurriedly said.

As for the other underlings, they also realized what was happening at this moment and immediately knelt down next to Li Qingshan.

"Forget about these formalities, just dispose of the body first."

As Li Qingshan spoke, he seemed to be heading towards Shuiyun Pavilion.

These people were filled with fear, but Li Qingshan was not prepared to relax.

Humans are complex beings; they may be grateful to you one moment and full of resentment the next.

So, while the group was busily dealing with the corpse, Li Qingshan was standing on the roof, quietly watching.

Then Liu Sanzhao or his henchmen took off their clothes and wrapped them tightly around the corpse.

During the journey, some of the underlings got restless and tried to touch the corpse to see if they could find anything of value.

But Liu San gave them a good beating, and luckily his legs weren't broken, which finally made them behave.

"Everyone, pay attention! This old guy looks like a veteran from the Marquis's mansion."

"They're incredibly powerful, and they're decked out in gold and silver. If they accidentally show even a little bit of their clothes, it'll definitely be discovered later, and then they'll all be dead."

"Run? Where can you run to? If you run, will the Water Snake Gang let you go, or will the Marquis's mansion let you go?"

"That's more like it. Let's get rid of this old guy, find a hole and bury him, and we'll make sure it looks nice and clean."

"Once I break through to the Martial Artist level and become a Hall Master, I'll treat you all to a life of luxury. Wouldn't that be wonderful?"

Soon, the group used the Water Snake Gang's connections to clean up Granny Wang's body.

They even cleaned up the bloodstains inside the interface.

Finally, fearing that his brothers would steal things, Liu San even searched each of them.

Seeing this, Li Qingshan nodded in satisfaction and returned to Shuiyun Pavilion.

However, he now held a letter in his hand.

The words "Changning Marquis's Residence" were prominently displayed above...
