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

In fact, Lu Xuan had been there for a while.

It was right next to us, plus the precise location of the incense tree.

The reason they didn't make a move was to see how Shen Yu would perform.

Shen Yu's strength has now reached the Unity Realm.

However, they still lack a lot of experience in fighting against others.

Occasionally, some real-world practice is necessary.

These men, disguised as laborers, are actually quite strong.

Except for the one who lost his hand.

Three Unity Realm cultivators, and one Rank 1 Martial Artist!

With this kind of skill, you're telling me you're only good for manual labor?

Unless they have some kind of quirk.

Furthermore, the fact that the other party chose to make their move in such a place clearly indicates that they had been tracking Shen Yu for some time, confirming that Shen Yu has no special background or identity.

They robbed and killed people here.

They then dumped the corpses in some slums, got the money, and also retrieved the precious medicinal herbs.

Lu Xuan originally thought that Gu Yun Pharmacy was a large-scale, long-established brand and should be considered safe.

But now it seems that people are ultimately greedy.

"We've never heard of any Gu Yun Pharmacy."

One of the laborers frowned and quickly denied it.

"You cut off my brother's hand, so I'll make you pay with your head!"

The leading martial artist, who had just entered the ranks, took the initiative and made the first move.

We must capture Lu Xuan and prevent this matter from getting out, otherwise there will likely be trouble later.

When doing this kind of thing, you must be clean and efficient.

"Be careful, sir."

Shen Yulai hurriedly shouted, seeing that these people were about to attack Lu Xuan, and also hurriedly wanted to step forward to help.

But one of them turned around and stopped Shen Yu.

The rest of them charged toward Lu Xuan like arrows.

Lu Xuan's gaze sharpened slightly.

Just as he was about to make his move, he sensed a figure rapidly approaching from behind.

He immediately withdrew his momentum, letting the laborers rush in front of him.

Just as one of them was about to strike Lu Xuan.

Suddenly, a figure leaped up from behind Lu Xuan, arriving first despite being behind, and landed in mid-air, kicking the expert who had made the move.

Bang!

The laborer who had just entered the ranks was sent flying backwards.

It slammed hard against the wall.

The other two also received a severe whip kick.

Bang!Bang!

The three men's offensive crumbled instantly.

"What?"

The laborer who had tried to stop Shen Yu turned around and saw this scene, and his eyes nearly popped out of his head in fright.

And just as it revealed its weakness.

Without hesitation, Shen Yu stepped forward and kicked the other person in the neck.

Shen Yu has good body proportions and her legs are much longer than average, so she is also quite good at leg techniques.

He stomped down with his foot.

The laborer in front of him let out a wail and collapsed to the ground.

Shen Yu then went over, snatched her package back, and kicked the man hard in the face.

"Hmph, you dare steal my things!"

Shen Yu said angrily.

By now, she could see that these people were clearly after her medicinal herbs, and they even dared to make a move in broad daylight, which made her a little angry. These were the herbs her master wanted, and her master had been incredibly kind to her. If she couldn't even protect them or handle this simple matter properly, wouldn't she be letting him down?

"Get out of here!"

Ye Luoxin said coldly.

She was a guard who had been paid, so it was only natural for her to take action.

The martial artists who had been knocked away realized how powerful Ye Luoxin was. Without hesitation, they got up and led the others to escape. This time, they had encountered a master and were directly defeated.

"Thank you so much for your help, sister."

Shen Yu also looked at Ye Luoxin with great curiosity.

"This is Master Ye, the instructor I hired for you all."

Lu Xuan explained.

"This is Shen Yu."

Ye Luoxin looked at Shen Yu and was surprised to find that Shen Yu was so young. Judging from the intimate actions between her and Lu Xuan, she should be a concubine or something similar, not a granddaughter.

These days, you really need to figure out the relationships between these clients properly.

Ye Luoxin had previously made a lot of jokes because she didn't understand things clearly, and even encountered a situation where her employer got angry and kicked her out.

"Hello, Master Ye."

"Hello there."

Ye Luoxin nodded slightly.

The little girl is pretty and polite; that's the kind of child everyone likes. And judging from how Shen Yu made his moves, Ye Luoxin seems to have some skill. She just doesn't know what level of cultivation Master Lu has.

This is what Ye Luoxin is most curious about.

After all, Lu Xuan hadn't shown much strength, but Ye Luoxin always felt that Lu Xuan's strength was not simple.

At first glance, he looks like an ordinary old man.

However, Ye Luoxin had cultivated sword intent, so she was able to sense the aura and will of others to a certain extent.

"Yu'er, you take Master Ye back first. I'll go see if there's anything else we need to buy."

"Don't wander around, go straight home, okay?"

Lu Xuan said.

Shen Yu nodded obediently upon hearing this.

"Yes, sir."

"Master Ye, thank you for your trouble."

Lu Xuan said to Ye Luoxin.

Ye Luoxin bowed slightly.

"It's my duty."

Ye Luoxin immediately took Shen Yu back.

Lu Xuan, however, stretched his muscles and bones.

We just let those laborers go like that? The price for doing bad things is too low.

Although those people had already left some time ago.

However, Lu Xuan had already left a trace of true energy on one of them, and now Lu Xuan followed that trace of true energy and rushed forward.

Whoosh!

Lu Xuan followed after him.

Meanwhile, the five men who had previously disguised themselves as laborers turned into a nearby alley and knocked on a door.

Then a middle-aged man opened the door.

"How did it get like this? Where are the things?"

When the middle-aged man saw the laborers in such a disheveled state, he immediately frowned. All he had asked them to do was to rob a little girl, and they had been beaten so badly that one of them even had his hand cut off.

"We failed to get the item...that little girl was protected by a powerful figure; we miscalculated!"

The laborer, whose cultivation level was that of a martial artist, also looked annoyed.

"Moreover, it seems they know who we are."

"What?! You've been exposed?"

The middle-aged man was startled upon hearing this.

"Not necessarily. It's possible they're just trying to trick us, but we should still be careful."

"That's what the leader of the laborers said."

He was kicked more than ten feet away by Ye Luoxin. He had never been knocked away so easily in his life, and he couldn't help but feel a little scared.

"Damn it! I had someone research it, and the medicinal herbs that girl bought are very likely a very powerful prescription that has never appeared on the market before. However, without the precise proportions, it would take a long time to research it. I was hoping to get involved with this, but I miscalculated."

The middle-aged man slammed his hand on the table.

With his gaze shifting, he couldn't care less about anything else at that moment.

"It seems the Xu family will have to take action themselves."

The Xu family!

If Lu Xuan remembered, the former Iron-Clad Constable Xu Wanshan was a member of the Xu family.

However, Xu Wanshan was a collateral branch of the Xu family.

The Xu family is one of the top families in Wuling County.

And it all involves things like medicine powders and herbs.

The middle-aged man was Tang Hui, a deputy manager of Gu Yun Pharmacy.

He originally intended to use the pretext of robbery to kidnap Shen Yu and then interrogate her for other information.

Even after kidnapping Shen Yu, they handed her over to the Xu family, but unexpectedly, the plan failed.

Since we've failed, let the Xu family handle it themselves.

As for the money he received, it's impossible for him to return it.

"Branches and twigs".

Suddenly, there was a sound of a door opening.

Everyone was taken aback upon hearing this.

Who is it?

Tang Hui peeked out towards the house.

But then they saw an old man sneaking in and locking the door from the inside.

They've made this place their home! How can they be so brazen as to steal in broad daylight?

"I mean, seriously, people are so brazen about stealing. This world is getting more and more outrageous!"

Tang Hui stormed out of the house in anger.

Just as he was about to point at Lu Xuan and angrily berate him.

But then Lu Xuan raised his hand and flicked it, and a stone flew swiftly toward Tang Hui with a whooshing sound.

"Bang!"

Tang Hui's throat was smashed.

Tang Hui immediately clutched his throat, stammering and unable to utter a single word, as blood filled his throat.

His obese body collapsed directly on the threshold.

The people inside the house were all shocked when they saw this scene.

"It's you!"

"That old man from earlier!"

"Old man, do you know who you killed?!"

When the group saw that Lu Xuan had actually killed Tang Hui, they were all horrified.

Lu Xuan actually dared to kill someone in public.

Moreover, the person killed was a deputy manager of Guyun Pharmacy!

"If you reveal who is behind this, you might still be able to live."

Lu Xuan smiled faintly.

With his current cultivation level at the mid-second rank, dealing with these people would be as easy as killing chickens.

"What mastermind? All we know is that you killed someone!"

One of them roared.

Lu Xuan raised his hand and flicked it, sending a burst of true energy out of his body, instantly blasting the man's body apart.

Bang!

Blood splattered.

Upon seeing this, the remaining people also gasped in shock.

"True Qi being projected outwards... You... you're a second-grade martial artist!"

The laborer who had just entered the ranks widened his eyes in shock when he saw Lu Xuan's gesture, his eyes filled with fear.

How could he possibly be a second-rank martial artist?

Are they really that unlucky?

I finally managed to get something done, but I ended up offending a second-rank martial artist!

"Okay, I'll talk!"

"It's Xu Zhanhong, the second-in-command of the Xu family."

"He gave us five hundred taels of silver and told us to kidnap the girl."

"Senior, about what happened before..."

The leading martial arts laborer was about to apologize to Lu Xuan when he felt Lu Xuan strike him with a palm strike from afar.

boom!

He was instantly struck as if by lightning.

The next moment, his body was torn apart by an unparalleled force.

Blood and flesh splattered everywhere.

As for the others, Lu Xuan did not spare them either, killing them all.

Although these people did reveal the mastermind behind it all.

But Lu Xuan didn't say for sure that they would be spared; he said "maybe."

"The Xu family?"

"I hope your Xu family won't go down the wrong path too."

Lu Xuan thought to himself.

Killing these people is also a way of giving the second master of the Xu family a warning.

Lu Xuan then searched through these people.

In the end, they collected a total of one thousand taels of silver notes.

"You son of a bitch, you deserved to die! You tricked me out of only five hundred taels!"

Lu Xuan glanced at the martial artist's corpse and immediately spat.

Tang Hui had five hundred taels on him, and the martial artist's corpse also had five hundred taels on it.

The same fire set the entire courtyard ablaze.

Unlike previous fires, this one started during the day.
