It takes about a day to travel from Wuling County to Jinyuan City by official road.

If you leave in the morning, you should arrive around evening.

This is because the roads have now been built, and many bandits and other criminals along the way have been eliminated.

People like the Seven Fiends of the Sky Eagle were actually just bandits who stayed deep in the mountains and dared not show themselves easily.

Once we get to Wuling County, we might be able to show off our power.

But if you go to Jinyuan City, you'll just be like a worm, crawling around.

Lu Xuan and the others chatted for a while, then quieted down.

After all, Lu Xuan is quite old, so he naturally needs to be more composed.

At this moment, Lu Xuan was also cultivating his own mental technique.

When Lin Qiao'er saw Lu Xuan cultivating, she very considerately stood by and fanned him.

Of course, as a fourth-rank martial artist, adjusting one's state through the flow of spiritual energy within the body is a very easy thing, so Lu Xuan would not experience any heatiness at all. But since Lin Qiao is so filial and obedient, let her do it.

Seeing this, Xu Jing also took out several account books and was checking the account books in her hand.

As representatives of Guyun Pharmacy in Wuling County, they needed to make a name for themselves this time. Therefore, Xu Jing also prepared a Grade 3 pill for the auction.

And this time, Xu Jing had made up her mind.

When these three types of elixirs are auctioned, transactions can be conducted using silver.

This is a change from the previous rules.

After all, people only value third-grade pills in terms of spirit stones.

Without spirit stones, don't even think about it.

By attracting attention to Wuling County in this way, they might be able to further boost their own performance.

I'm afraid Liang Wanquan will interfere.

The carriage bore the banner of Gu Yun Pharmacy, so even if there were bandits along the way who wanted to rob it, they would have to give it some face.

But it is precisely because of its eye-catching banner.

As the carriage entered a mountain road, a person on the mountaintop locked onto Xu Jing's carriage with a telescope and then waved a flag in his hand to signal.

The news of Xu Jing's arrival in his carriage was also spread.

In the mountains and forests.

The group of assassins, who were already prepared, put on their masks after receiving the signal.

"Listen up, everyone! Leave no one alive!"

"If this matter is successfully resolved, we will be able to establish contact with the Northern Spirit Pill Sect!"

"That's what the leader said."

Upon hearing this, a look of determination appeared in everyone's eyes.

The leader was also filled with admiration.

Although doing this today is a bit risky.

However, the relationship between the family and the Qinghe Sword Sect is not good now.

If it weren't for the support of the Ye Liang Kingdom, the family's situation would have been much worse.

Now there is a fantastic opportunity.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to get them connected with the Northern Spirit Pill Sect, so we must win them over.

Then.

These dozen or so men in black were lying in ambush on a hillside.

When the carriage arrived at the foot of the mountain.

The leader took the lead and fired the grappling hook with a crossbow bolt.

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

Instantly, more than a dozen ziplines shot out from the hillside.

It shot swiftly toward the direction of the carriage.

Bang bang bang!

The grappling hook trapped the carriage.

Then, a dozen assassins leaped and used ziplines to rush towards the carriage.

When the first person rushed into the carriage, ready to start the killing spree, he was shocked to find that there wasn't a single person inside!

"Nobody's here!"

"The carriage is empty!"

A dozen or so people surrounded the carriage.

Those who had finished inspecting the carriages were also completely bewildered.

Could it be that someone tipped them off?!

"They must have gotten off on that road. Chase them!"

The leader said in a low voice.

This order absolutely must be completed today.

The matter concerns the life and death of the family.

However, just as these people were preparing to search along the route the carriage had come from.

Suddenly, a whooshing sound came from the air.

Whoosh!

An arrow formed from qi swept in from afar.

It pointed directly at one of the men in black.

"Be careful!"

The leader was the most powerful and sensed the attack, but even if he warned them now, it was too late.

puff!

Those arrows, imbued with powerful energy, were filled with immense force.

He shot through one of the men in black, then shot straight at the second one.

The second person's heart was also pierced by an arrow.

"Archers!"

The leader of the men in black roared.

The rest of his men also scattered in all directions.

However, just as everyone set off, a series of arrows rained down from the sky.

And these arrows all found each and every one of them with incredible accuracy.

puff!puff!puff!

A series of corpses fell to the ground.

The leader saw that his men were completely powerless against these archers, and if things continued like this, they would only be throwing their lives away.

So he shouted loudly.

"withdraw!"

The remaining three or five people escaped into the jungle in their own way.

But the leader of the men in black paid a little attention.

Upon discovering the other companions, they quickly fell silent and vanished without a trace.

Turning around, they found that the few remaining people had also been shot dead.

"What...?"

The remaining leader gasped in shock upon witnessing this scene.

Cold sweat involuntarily broke out on my forehead.

At this moment.

He knew he couldn't escape.

Just as this thought came to mind, I saw an old man suddenly emerge from the jungle directly in front of me.

The old man looked completely harmless.

In just a few steps, it appeared right in front of him.

"Speak, who sent you?"

Lu Xuan arrived in front of the man in black.

He looked at the other person calmly and said.

"Heh, I didn't expect that woman to have a master with her."

"We've lost today. Do with us as you please! Why ask any more questions!"

The man in black snorted coldly and said in a firm and powerful voice.

That woman?

Lu Xuan immediately understood the meaning behind the other person's words.

These people must have come for Gu Yun Pharmacy's carriage.

And he was also surprised by his own arrival.

That means the person they want to kill is Xu Jing.

It can't be Old Lady Luo.

Lu Xuan had initially thought these people were there to kill him.

But no one could have imagined who would want to kill him.

After all, he had done a very good job of eliminating all the enemies, and basically no one would come looking for him.

Therefore, it is quite puzzling.

Since they came for Xu Jing.

Then there's only one person left.

"It seems that Liang Wanquan sent you."

Liang Wanquan is the deputy manager of Guyun Pharmacy in Jinyuan City.

Knowing Xu Jing's route naturally made arranging the ambush very convenient for him.

But when Lu Xuan mentioned Liang Wanquan, there was no change in the other man's eyes, and there was even a hint of a cold smile.

This clearly indicates that Lu Xuan guessed wrong.

"Not Liang Wanquan?"

"That must be He Donglin."

Lu Xuan continued.

As expected, the other party's eyes visibly flickered when they heard He Donglin's name.

But he remained defiant in his words.

"I don't know any He Donglin or Liang Wanquan."

"Judging from the aura fluctuations released by the cultivation technique you were practicing just now... you must be from the Black Blood Hall of the Mu family, right?"

Lu Xuan glanced at the man.

He already knew that the group in front of him were from the Black Blood Hall of the Mu family.

After all, this wasn't the first time he had dealt with people from the Black Blood Hall.

Although these members of the Black Blood Hall practice different cultivation methods.

But they are all trained from the same mold, so it is easy to judge them by their aura.

as predicted.

When Lu Xuan uttered the words "Black Blood Hall".

The man in black immediately widened his eyes.

Even if he wanted to continue pretending.

There's nothing we can do now.

"Don't be nervous."

Lu Xuan patted the other person on the shoulder, signaling them to relax.

"Don't worry, I already have a grudge against the Mu family."

"Even if you hadn't come today, I would have slaughtered the entire Mu family."

"Don't worry."

Lu Xuan said.

Is this what you call peace of mind?

This is called "don't be nervous"!?

Just as the Black Blood Hall member was about to say something, he felt as if a heavy lead weight had been suddenly poured into the spot where Lu Xuan had patted his shoulder.

"boom!"

Flesh and blood exploded.

But instead, a flame erupted from within.

When it exploded, its flesh and blood were burned away like fireworks.

These people are indeed professional killers.

Aside from a few medicinal herbs used for healing and refreshing, he hadn't brought anything else with him.

"Logically, there should be another lookout."

Lu Xuan's gaze suddenly turned to a mountain ridge in the distance.

Just as Lu Xuan's gaze fell upon that spot, a person lying prone on the trunk of a large tree on the ridge was immediately stunned by Lu Xuan's gaze, and his body trembled violently.

"Oh no! We've been discovered!"

At this moment, he had no illusions whatsoever.

Lu Xuan must have discovered it, otherwise he wouldn't have this feeling.

Although he was at least 500 feet away from Lu Xuan, he had a very bad feeling.

Just now, when Lu Xuan made his move in the jungle and shot down more than a dozen Black Blood Hall experts.

He himself was in a high position, but he couldn't find the other party's whereabouts no matter what he did.

Whoosh!

Just as he turned to flee.

Suddenly, they heard a whooshing sound behind them.

The next moment, a piercing pain struck.

"puff!"

He spat out a mouthful of blood.

Then, the man suddenly collapsed to the ground.

He looked down at his chest, which had been pierced through.

He was trying hard to recall how the arrow had hit him.

Unfortunately, he didn't have any more time and closed his eyes in despair.

Lu Xuan released his spiritual power and sensed the surroundings.

It has been confirmed that there is no one else there.

They then got the carriage out again and drove it to a small hill.

Xu Jing and the other two were hiding here.

And it also took in everything that had just happened.

At this moment, the three of them felt immense admiration for Lu Xuan's strength.

Those black-clad assassins, shot one by one with an arrow.

They're all second-rank martial artists!

Lin Qiao could also sense that each of these people was no weaker than her father.

But in front of Grandpa Lu, they were like chickens waiting to be slaughtered, unable even to escape.

"I've figured it out."

"They were sent by He Donglin."

"They sent people from the Mu family."
