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

Master Sun pulled.

He failed to pull Lu Xuan in front of him.

Instead, they sensed a heavy, mountain-like aura emanating from Lu Xuan.

I instinctively sensed that something was wrong.

Master Sun immediately tried to remove the throwing knife.

But by then, he had no choice.

With a flick of his wrist, Lu Xuan pulled Master Sun directly in front of him.

Whoosh!

Master Sun lifted his feet off the ground and quickly moved towards Lu Xuan.

At this moment, Master Sun also realized that the power Lu Xuan unleashed was terrifying.

"not good!"

With a thought, Master Sun quickly produced a tortoise shell from the cloth pouch at his waist and placed it in front of him.

Just then, Lu Xuan unleashed his Iron Wind Palm technique.

This palm strike was like a dozen fierce gusts of wind erupting from Lu Xuan's palm. Each gust of wind was like a wind blade. Even though it was partially blocked by the opponent's tortoise shell, a considerable amount of wind blade power still quickly bombarded Master Sun's body.

"puff!"

Master Sun coughed up blood.

The body of a sorcerer is inherently not as strong as that of a martial artist.

At this moment, Master Sun was naturally defeated instantly by Zhong Luxuan's Iron Wind Palm.

Master Sun just couldn't figure it out.

Why did Lu Xuan's power suddenly become so strong?

"Brother... wait a minute..."

"Don't you have a grudge against the Huang family? And have you been oppressed by them for years? If we join forces, we can take down the Huang family together!"

"I still have 50,000 taels of silver, all given to me by the Huang family. I'll give it all to you..."

Master Sun quickly raised his hand and begged Lu Xuan for mercy.

However, Lu Xuan ignored him and used the Snake Step to step forward, stomping out and shoving Master Sun's head directly into the floor.

"Even if I kill you, you'll still be mine."

"Do I need to explain a principle that even a three-year-old understands?"

Lu Xuan said calmly.

He retracted his right foot, and by then Master Sun's head had practically exploded.

In a real life-or-death battle, where is there so much time to hear your last words?

"Qingxue, are you alright?"

Lu Xuan came to the bedside.

The whisk wrapped around Liu Qingxue was torn to shreds.

Just now, Lu Xuan used the power of the Xuan Tian Martial Bone to suddenly enhance his own strength, which allowed him to unexpectedly kill Master Sun.

The reason for not using their full strength at the beginning was precisely to confuse the opponent.

"I'm fine... Thank you, sir."

Liu Qingxue's mood had already calmed down when she saw Lu Xuan.

After all, they have experienced even more severe situations.

"It's good that you're alright. Pack your things and get out of here."

Lu Xuan said.

Liu Qingxue nodded as well.

The so-called "sorting out" was to check if these people had anything valuable on them. Liu Qingxue herself came empty-handed and didn't bring anything with her.

Lu Xuan then went to find Master Sun's corpse.

Furthermore, they found a storage bag on Master Sun's person.

Storage bags are of a lower grade than storage rings, and are also relatively cheaper to make.

Furthermore, the storage bag space is also smaller.

However, storing some personal medicines and silver notes was not a problem.

Lu Xuan stepped forward and reached into his pocket, finding a silver note worth a full 55,000 taels!

"hiss!"

"This charlatan managed to squeeze so much money out of the Huang family."

Lu Xuan was deeply shocked when he saw the stack of silver notes.

Thinking about it, I realized that I had only saved fifteen taels of silver in sixty years.

In just one night, he earned more money than he could earn in hundreds of lifetimes.

"The money has all been made by these evil people."

Lu Xuan shook his head.

Apart from these items, there were no other valuables.

However, the tortoise shell that Lu Xuan shattered would be quite valuable if intact.

"This weapon with chains wrapped around throwing knives would suit me quite well."

Lu Xuan picked up the weapon from Master Sun's hand.

This item has a handle; you can use it by holding the handle end, and its effects are similar to those of a whip.

Lu Xuan immediately put it away as well.

Furthermore, the material of this whip feels extremely extraordinary.

"A total of eight taels of silver were found."

Liu Qingxue opened her palm and handed the eight taels of silver she had just received to Lu Xuan.

"You can keep it."

Lu Xuan waved his hand.

Liu Qingxue didn't hesitate either.

Afterwards, Lu Xuan took Liu Qingxue and left directly from the roof of the inn, setting it on fire before leaving.

The inn accepted money from the Huang family to let them in to deal with Liu Qingxue. Even now, with such a big commotion, no one has come to check. They clearly want to turn a blind eye and ignore the matter, waiting until they've broken a lot of things before demanding compensation from the Huang family.

Therefore, Lu Xuan showed no mercy in unleashing this fire, directly activating it with his true energy.

By the time the innkeeper realized what was happening...

Only then did they frantically cry out in despair and call for help to put out the fire.

Unfortunately, the flames, enhanced by true qi and under Lu Xuan's previous control, had already spread to every corner of the inn.

The innkeepers didn't have time to put out the fire.

The flames burned ever brighter and brighter, eventually engulfing the entire inn.

Lu Xuan, carrying Liu Qingxue, used his lightness skill to land in an alley a few streets away.

Then, avoiding the crowds, they returned to the granary hut in Dong'anfang.

The granary hut had already been cleaned up very thoroughly by Shen Yue.

"Sister Qingxue, you're here too!?"

When Shen Yue saw Liu Qingxue arrive, she couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

Unexpectedly, the master also brought Liu Qingxue over.

"Hmm... Qingxue, you can stay here for the next few days too."

Lu Xuan nodded.

"The Huang family will definitely be searching for you frantically these next few days, but without that person's methods, it won't be so easy for them to find you. They would never expect you to be hiding here."

"It seems that your value is not so easily given up by the Huang family and the Blood Mist Cult."

"This matter needs to be taken on a larger scale."

Lu Xuan looked at Liu Qingxue with a somewhat solemn expression.

The Huang family has gone to any lengths to find Liu Qingxue.

Previously, Lu Xuan thought that this Master Sun was just a charlatan.

But unexpectedly, Master Sun turned out to be a sorcerer with real skills.

They even spent a full 50,000 taels of silver to find Liu Qingxue.

This shows how important Liu Qingxue was to the Huang family.

At this moment, Liu Qingxue also clenched her teeth, and her beautiful eyebrows drooped slightly.

"Hehe, girl, don't worry."

"The Huang family is nothing but flies in the palm of my hand."

"Even the Blood Mistress Cult is just a rat in the ditch, they dare not show themselves easily, there is nothing to worry about."

Lu Xuan waved his hand and said.

If we find another opportunity, we can wipe out the Huang family.

Liu Qingxue will be safer for the time being.

Hearing Lu Xuan's words, Liu Qingxue's heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally slowly calmed down.

Their eyes were filled with gratitude as they looked at Lu Xuan.

The old man has saved her life more than once.

I really don't know how to repay the master.

"With the master here, I'm not afraid."

Liu Qingxue looked at Lu Xuan and said.

"Okay, get some rest. The three of us will squeeze in tonight."

"This bed is definitely bigger than the Huang family's."

Lu Xuan chuckled.

Both women blushed slightly upon hearing this.

"Sir... there's a bathtub in the bathroom, why don't you take a hot bath first?"

Shen Yue said.

His gaze secretly met Liu Qingxue's, but Lu Xuan didn't notice.

"Okay, let's make one first."

Afterwards, Lu Xuan went to the bathhouse and enjoyed a comfortable hot bath.

Quite a few people were killed tonight.

It's a good opportunity to wash off the smell of blood.

"After being covered in the smell of horse manure for so many years, I'm afraid the smell of blood can't be masked at all."

Compared to the horses I've raised over the years, the people I've killed seem insignificant.

With over 60,000 taels of silver in hand, there's no need to rush to take up the teaching position at the Fengwu Hall.

After all, in Lu Xuan's view, it wouldn't be an easy task for Chu Xiao to establish the Fengwu Hall in Wuling County. They would wait until the situation stabilized before making any further plans.

If we rashly join now, we'll only be cleaning up some messes.

He's worked hard all his life, and now all he wants is to enjoy some peace and quiet, cultivate in peace, and improve his strength first.

Lu Xuan was well aware that without sufficient strength, he would not be able to enjoy peace.

Just as Lu Xuan was making plans in his mind.

But then they heard a twig snap.

The bathroom door was pushed open.

In the dim light, Lu Xuan peered through the rising mist.

Then I saw two girls wrapped in white towels walk in shyly.

"Um?"

Lu Xuan, who was originally preparing to take a nap, immediately perked up when he saw the two of them.

"you……"

Then the two women said in unison.

"Sir, let us serve you."

Seeing the two women working together so well, Lu Xuan did not stop them.

Now, Lu Xuan is full of energy and in better condition than when he was young. Coupled with his martial arts physique, he is even more irresistible to girls.

Beneath the rising white mist, white water droplets were constantly splashing.

Even in the once secluded and quiet granary, faint sounds of decadent music could be heard emanating from within.

However, the surrounding area was very open and spacious, and there were no other people to appreciate it.

Midnight has passed.

Lu Xuan covered the two exhausted girls with blankets.

Then they arrived at an open space.

Sit cross-legged.

He circulated the Purple Qi Technique within his body, refining all the spiritual energy fed back from the incense tree.

Lu Xuan could also sense it.

The increase in spiritual energy within his body was equivalent to that of a first-grade martial artist after nearly half a month of arduous training.

This is not finished.

Without any hesitation, Lu Xuan took out one of the pills he had brought from Master Yunhe's remains and swallowed it.

Although taking these pills now will certainly waste most of their medicinal effects.

But it can help you improve your skills better and faster.

To quickly advance to a higher level and acquire more resources.

That way it won't be a waste.

Many people probably can't have Lu Xuan's mindset. They would just hoard the pills and only take them after they can perfectly refine them. In that case, they would miss too many opportunities.

The elixir entered the stomach.

Lu Xuan immediately felt the intense heat gathering within his body.

As the Purple Qi Technique was activated, this energy rapidly flowed into the limbs and bones.

Lu Xuan was cultivating peacefully and comfortably here.

However, the entire underground world of Wuling County seemed to have been thrown into chaos.

A shocking case has occurred within the East Snake Gang.

An imperial official died at an internal banquet of the Eastern Snake Gang.

This matter requires an explanation not only from the East Snake Gang itself.

Meanwhile, why did this official appear at a local gang's banquet?

The government also needs to conduct a thorough investigation.

In Wuling County, although the county magistrate is in charge of all matters, he is not all-powerful. If he is caught doing something wrong or has a stain on his record, he will definitely be removed by the county's supervisory department.

The Supervisory Department was a newly established agency. Although it didn't have much real power, it could submit complaints directly to higher authorities without having to go through the county government.

Therefore, when Yang Qinghou learned of this news, he immediately gave the order.

We need to force the East Snake Gang to hand over a murderer.

Unfortunately, it turned out that...

Hu Bing, the leader of the Dongshe Gang, was planning to hand over the deputy leader, Huo Donglei.

When he fought Huo Donglei, he was no match for him and was killed by Huo Donglei.

Huo Donglei was also a remarkable figure. He quickly took over the Dongshe Gang and handed over the body of the former gang leader, Hu Bing.

For Yang Qinghou, this was obviously a very good explanation.

However, the other two leaders of the East Snake Gang took the opportunity to divide the spoils, causing the East Snake Gang to fall apart. Whether the East Snake Gang can be reorganized in a short period of time depends on Huo Donglei's methods. After all, the outside gangs are all waiting for this opportunity to take a big bite out of the fat meat and will not give you a chance to reorganize in peace.

Aside from the Dongbao Snake Gang incident.

The Qingfeng Inn was burned to the ground.

At the same time, the bodies of many of Huang family servants were found at the scene, as well as a headless corpse. After examination by the county government, it was determined that the corpse belonged to a wicked sorcerer wanted by the imperial court who had cruelly murdered many young girls in order to practice his magic.

The First Madam could only distance herself from these corpses.

At the same time, the old woman he had been in contact with was hung up and severely whipped until she was covered in blood and gore, and hanged from the roof beam.

They actually dared to bring her a wanted criminal, and a wicked sorcerer at that!

Lu Xuan, on the other hand, was quite at ease. He spent his days cultivating in the granary and his evenings buying medicinal herbs from the black market to nourish himself.

He also taught Shen Yue and Liu Qingxue how to cultivate the Purple Qi Technique.

It took three days to calm down.

At this moment, Lu Xuan's cultivation finally broke through to the high level of the first rank!

But at the same time, he also heard some news.

Master Huang is on his way back.

Calculating the time, Huang Batian's trip was originally expected to last a month, but it has only been about half a month now.

Clearly, the occurrence of various events forced Huang Batian to stop what he was doing.

"We can't give Huang Tianba a chance to react."

"If he comes to his senses, his wealth will definitely pose a great threat."

A cold glint flashed in Lu Xuan's eyes.

He's no young man who does things half-heartedly; he has to get things done cleanly and efficiently!
