I'm seventy years old this year, and you want me to have many children and much happiness?

The commotion on the auction stage drew the attention of everyone around.

When they saw the lotus-shaped magical artifact left amidst a pile of flesh and blood on the auction stage, they couldn't help but gasp.

After all, it was this very person who had just cast the formation, trapping everyone present inside, leaving no one with a chance to escape.

The overwhelming sense of power also made people realize just how strong the person controlling the formation was.

However, Lu Xuan's appearance easily shattered the array released by the opponent.

Then he suddenly descended from the sky with a single move.

He was beaten to death on the spot.

That's a fourth-grade expert.

In that split second, he killed the person instantly!?

The other party didn't even have a chance to escape.

"The formation is broken, let's retreat!"

"Get out of there first!"

"Gentlemen, we'll take our leave first!"

The bloody battle at the auction just now resulted in many injuries and deaths.

That was a desperate effort.

Now that they have a chance to escape, they no longer need to fight back.

One by one, figures flew out.

They hid in the distance.

For a moment, only the people from the Liang Kingdom, the Qinghe Sword Sect, and the Tianyuan Sect remained on the spot.

Of course, there were also some skilled individuals who contributed their strength.

For example, the Chu family group.

The Chu family showed no fear whatsoever towards these people from the Night Liang Kingdom.

Yuan Xiaolin and the others were stunned when they saw Lu Xuan appear.

Where did this old man come from?

"Old Lu!"

Upon seeing Lu Xuan, Chu Lingsheng exclaimed excitedly.

"Master Lu!"

Nan Siqi stepped back and moved closer to Lu Xuan, bowing to him as a sign of respect.

"Hmm... Hmm? You actually broke through?"

"Congratulations! As expected, you young people are truly gifted."

Lu Xuan looked at Nan Siqi and praised her profusely.

"Thanks to Master Lu's elixir."

Nan Siqi quickly said.

At this moment, all sides surrounded the people from Ye Liang Kingdom.

The Chu family's reinforcements also arrived at this time.

As Yuan Xiaolin watched the increasing number of experts, he gritted his teeth and broke out in a cold sweat.

Even now, he has no other options.

The agreement was to eliminate everyone at that auction.

It was agreed that the formation could easily trap everyone inside.

Now, an old man casually made a move and shattered the supposedly indestructible formation you all spoke of.

In this situation, there's no point in hiding it anymore.

Even Yuan Xiaolin had no choice but to bite the bullet and go for it.

"Yuan Xiaolin! You colluded with foreign powers to murder the sect leader!"

"As the sect leader's personal disciple, I hereby declare that, effective immediately, Yuan Xiaolin is expelled from the Qinghe Sword Sect!"

Li Wei stepped forward.

His gaze was fixed on Yuan Xiaolin in front of him.

She witnessed the sect leader's death firsthand; it was still vivid in her mind.

If she hadn't run fast, she probably would have been killed by these people.

When Li Wei appeared.

The guest elders of the Qinghe Sword Sect who had been fighting with Yuan Xiaolin and the others also came to join Li Wei.

Because Li Wei is the sect leader's personal disciple.

Although he is not the first in line to succeed to the position of sect leader.

However, Li Wei herself had a very high reputation within the sect.

Because she is young, beautiful, and has a strong talent for martial arts.

As a sect, it is natural to prefer entrusting the future to such promising young people.

Once Li Wei breaks through to the fourth rank of martial arts, she will surely be able to lead the Qinghe Sword Sect onto an even more glorious path in the future.

"We are guest retainers of the Qinghe Sword Sect."

"Li Wei, you are the sect leader's personal disciple. In the entire Qinghe Sword Sect, only you are qualified to succeed as sect leader."

"Excellent! We all support you as our new sect leader!"

"Yuan Xiaolin is nothing but a despicable traitor, a stray dog ​​begging for food!"

While the group came to Li Wei's aid, they also criticized Yuan Xiaolin.

"Thank you all for your offerings."

Li Wei nodded slightly.

They did not deny the offerings made to her, nor did they deny the idea of ​​making her the new sect leader.

In Li Wei's view, if Yuan Xiaolin can sit in the position of sect leader, why can't I?

Having become the sect leader of the Qinghe Sword Sect, it was a certainty that his cultivation would break through to the fourth rank.

In reality, Li Wei did not like her master.

Because his master had forcibly bought him and placed him in the sect for training, so that he could become his son's right-hand man.

Fortunately, God had eyes.

He sent someone to take away his arrogant and domineering son, who was good for nothing.

Now that Li Wei possesses exceptional skills, the sect leader is worried that after her breakthrough, she will take his position.

So he cut off his own cultivation resources.

Some time ago, he even shamelessly said that he wanted to take her as a concubine!

However, another very coincidental thing happened.

Yuan Xiaolin actually killed her master and usurped the position of sect leader.

So, for Li Wei, the next step is simply to deal with Yuan Xiaolin.

She could then rightfully take over the position of sect leader.

Such a large sect fell into her hands so easily.

She, Li Wei, is no saint. With such a huge mountain of resources right in front of her, how could she easily give it up?

Therefore, no matter what, Yuan Xiaolin must be killed.

Originally, Li Wei wasn't very confident about killing Yuan Xiaolin.

But with Lu Xuan's help...

With Lu Xuan as a powerful ally, Li Wei found an opportunity.

At the same time, Li Wei also knew.

The reason these worshippers are helping him now is because they have no legitimate reason to do so. Only by binding themselves to him can they rightfully take down Yuan Xiaolin.

However, once the sect is stable...

These people will inevitably turn against you.

Li Wei, of course, would not allow such a thing to happen.

This brings us to the point that we need to find a powerful enough backer!

Clearly, Master Lu was the most powerful backer.

Li Wei had already made all these plans in her mind.

However, gaining Lu Xuan's support will still require some effort.

At this moment, Yuan Xiaolin also felt a sense of relief, thinking, "I'm going to risk it all."

"Enough with the nonsense!"

"Only those who survive have the right to indulge in wishful thinking."

Yuan Xiaolin's eyes narrowed.

Although the few loyal followers around him were already somewhat wavering, they were now in a difficult situation.

Only by taking decisive action and standing on the same side as Yuan Xiaolin can they have a chance to survive.

If you keep jumping back and forth, you'll only end up dying a worse death.

"kill!"

Yuan Xiaolin roared angrily at this moment.

Immediately, a terrifying aura was released from his body.

His fourth-grade cultivation level was now operating at its peak.

At the same time, he patted his sleeve, and a long sword that radiated divine light and mystery emerged from the cuff.

When this sword appeared.

The entire sky above Jinyuan City was also as if a violent, giant wave had surged.

"Boom!"

The treasured sword of the Qinghe Sword Sect.

It is called the Nine Rivers Sword!

With the acquisition of the Nine Rivers Sword, Yuan Xiaolin's aura surged dramatically.

"The Nine Rivers Sword is the most prized treasure of my Qinghe Sword Sect!"

"This person must have killed the sect leader and forcibly seized this sword."

"This sword is a fourth-grade spiritual weapon with immense power. Everyone be careful."

Li Wei exclaimed in surprise, while also reminding everyone to be careful of the sword.

"kill!"

Holding the Nine Rivers Sword, Yuan Xiaolin's aura was as if he controlled all the rivers under heaven.

At the same time, he unleashed the Great River Sword Qi.

In an instant, sword energy, accompanied by a fierce wind, swept in.

They rushed quickly towards Li Wei's direction.

Li Wei's expression changed.

She was severely injured and had no way to withstand the sword strike.

If the few worshippers were to forcibly resist, they would likely suffer serious injuries.

Upon seeing this, Nan Siqi also flew out.

Thinking of stopping this sword energy.

However, this sword energy was fierce, and the Nine Rivers Sword also carried the will that the Qinghe Sword Sect had condensed over the years.

Even if Nan Siqi tries her best to stop it, she will probably still suffer a considerable shock.

"Girl, go to the back."

Lu Xuan appeared beside Nan Siqi at some unknown time.

He stood in front of the crowd.

When Lu Xuan appeared, Nan Siqi immediately felt a sense of security.

It seems that as long as one is by Lu Xuan's side, any danger in the world can be put aside.

Nan Siqi's gaze involuntarily drifted to Lu Xuan's retreating figure.

Although Lu Xuan was older than her, for cultivators, age was nothing.

Fourth-grade experts can generally live to be 180 years old.

If one can cultivate to the fifth rank.

Their lifespan can even exceed three hundred years!

Lu Xuan was only seventy years old, which was quite young among fifth-rank martial artists.

Li Wei, who was behind her, saw Nan Siqi, who shared the same name as her, and indeed, Nan Siqi's appearance was no less than her own.

Moreover, Nan Siqi's cultivation level is stronger than hers.

This made Li Wei grit her teeth in secret.

If I could become the sect leader of the Qinghe Sword Sect, I would be more qualified than Nan Siqi to stand beside Lu Xuan.

After all, she had no problem breaking through to the fourth rank.

But you, Nan Siqi, may not be able to become the sect leader of Qinghe Sword Sect with your fourth-grade cultivation.

To put it bluntly, there are quite a few fourth-rank experts, but there is only one sect master of the Qinghe Sword Sect!

Yuan Xiaolin's sword strike was indeed quite skillful.

His own sword intent has also reached the level of the second level of sword intent.

It wouldn't be easy for anyone present to catch that sword.

But unfortunately.

Yuan Xiaolin was facing Lu Xuan.

With the power of the Nine Rivers Sword, Yuan Xiaolin stirred up the forces of heaven and earth with a single strike.

That fierce sword light was as devastating as a tumbleweed.

Fall from the sky.

Lu Xuan also drew his Sun-Breaking Sword.

This Broken Sun Sword belongs to the Mu family. Even if someone recognizes it, it doesn't matter, because everyone knows that the Mu family was destroyed by Lu Xuan.

At the same time, Lu Xuan was using the Chu family's sword technique.

Wind-Shattering Sword Technique.

When Lu Xuan's own realm reached the third level of sword intent.

Furthermore, after his cultivation level was raised to the high stage of the fourth rank.

They also gained a deeper understanding of their own spiritual power and the power of heaven and earth around them.

This Wind-Shattering Sword Technique, when executed by Lu Xuan, appears simple.

However, the terrifying power that erupted was like the roar of ten thousand beasts.

Lu Xuan swept his sword across the room.

The terrifying destructive power was like a raging storm, constantly tearing apart the great river sword energy in front of it.

Chu Lingsheng and the others standing nearby were also amazed after seeing the sword strike Lu Xuan unleashed.

This is merely a Xuan-rank sword technique, yet in Master Lu's hands, it can unleash such terrifying power, which is truly astonishing.

Yuan Xiaolin's sword momentum crumbled instantly under Lu Xuan's offensive.

After all, there is a huge gap in strength.

Yuan Xiaolin was utterly insignificant in Lu Xuan's eyes.

boom!

Lu Xuan's sword strike shattered Yuan Xiaolin's aura, sending him flying.

It fell heavily to the ground from the sky.

The Nine Rivers Sword in his hand easily fell into Lu Xuan's hand under Lu Xuan's manipulation of his Yuan Gang.

With a flick of his wrist, Lu Xuan stored the Nine Rivers Sword into his storage ring.

Everyone who saw this was shocked.

As I just mentioned, the Nine Rivers Sword is a treasure of the Qinghe Sword Sect, yet you, sir, put it away without a word.

But ironically, no one dared to step forward and say anything at that moment.

It was Lu Xuan who defeated him.

That thing naturally belonged to Lu Xuan as spoils of war.

You said it was your family's precious treasure.

Why don't you go and take it back yourself?

Or how did it end up in someone else's hands?

If you casually say, "This is your treasure," and someone has to return it to you, you wouldn't agree either.

"Whoosh!"

Seeing that things were not going well, the people from Yeliang Kingdom immediately turned around and fled.

However, the people of Ye Liang Kingdom also suffered heavy losses in today's battle.

Lu Xuan did not continue the pursuit.

These people from the Kingdom of Night Cold were so poor that they had nothing of value to offer.

The remaining members of the Qinghe Sword Sect, those who had betrayed the sect and followed Yuan Xiaolin, all dropped their weapons and begged for mercy from Lu Xuan and Li Wei.

"Please spare my life, senior!"

"Sect Master, spare my life!"

"We were all forced by that damned Yuan Xiaolin."

"He's the one who forced us to rebel."

"We never intended to betray our sect."

Lu Xuan glanced at Li Wei.

"Miss Li, these are all your people... so you can handle them."

Lu Xuan didn't bother with such things.

Then he saw Lin Qiao and Xu Jing in the crowd. Seeing that they were both safe and sound, he was relieved.

"It's good that you two are alright. Luckily, Manager Wang informed me, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to get here so quickly."

Lu Xuan said.

Seeing how much Lu Xuan cared for them, the two felt a warmth in their hearts.

Nan Siqi, along with the people from Tianyuan Sect, was also cleaning up the scene.

The lotus-shaped magical artifact naturally fell into Lu Xuan's hands.

This treasure is a magic array artifact.

It can only play a greater role in Lu Xuan's hands.

The Chu family also sent people to provide support near the auction to prevent any troublemakers from causing problems later.

at the same time.

A loud roar came from afar.

This roar was earth-shattering.

"A strange beast?"

Lu Xuan's gaze turned toward the direction from which the beast's roar came.

At the same time, a powerful mental force swept out.

It was found in a corner of Jinyuan City.

Yi Shuhe, Xiao Yunshan, and others were also struggling to withstand the attack from the people of Ye Liang Kingdom. They were not only facing attacks from two fourth-rank experts, but also the assistance of a fourth-rank exotic beast.

"Elder Chu, could you please keep an eye on them for me? Something happened with the city lord, I'm going to check on them."

Lu Xuan said.

Chu Lingsheng naturally stepped forward and agreed.

"No problem, Mr. Lu, please leave it to me."

Lu Xuan nodded.

Then he leaped into the air, his Yuan Gang power erupting beneath his feet, and swiftly rushed towards the Jin Yuan City armory.
