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

Southern Alliance?

Lu Xuan's gaze fell on Jiang Qin.

Jiang Qin shook her head, looking completely bewildered.

She had no disputes with the Nanlian Gang, but the Nanlian Gang would occasionally charge nearby merchants a fee.

As long as you pay the money honestly, there won't be any problems.

Before these peaceful times, Jiang Qin was in no way inferior to their Southern Alliance Gang.

Upon seeing this scene, Ye Luoxin, who was standing nearby, had already walked to the side, picked up her sword, and was ready to make a move at any moment.

Ten taels of silver?

When will it be possible to buy a house like this for ten taels of silver?

They're obviously here to cause trouble.

Anyone with eyes can see it immediately.

Ye Luoxin was originally a guard hired by Lu Xuan. As long as Lu Xuan gave the order, Ye Luoxin would not hesitate to take action regardless of the other party's identity. She had nothing to fear, no matter who the other party was.

However, before Lu Xuan could speak...

The man wearing a canvas hat then spoke again.

His eyes darted around among the crowd before finally settling on Shen Yu.

"By the way, that guy over there looks a lot like the thief who broke into my house a while ago. Come with us."

The other party's tone suggested that no one was allowed to refuse.

At this moment, Lu Xuan also pulled Jiang Qin aside.

"According to the laws of the dynasty, the head of the household may kill on the spot anyone who comes to plunder."

"Qingxue... they've all been killed."

As Lu Xuan finished speaking...

Liu Qingxue gave a low shout first and rushed out.

She had already been planning to take action when she saw these people.

After all, these people were exactly the same as the ones who broke into her home and went on a killing spree back then—equally tyrannical and domineering.

They found a plausible reason and began burning, killing, and looting.

While Nanshanfang is relatively safe, it is not absolutely safe.

After all, this is a martial arts world, and there was no Fengwu Hall here to clean up the atmosphere before.

The entire Wuling County was basically controlled by a few major families. As for the county government, as long as you paid some money, you could get by on the surface, but they would never stand up for a few commoners.

These gangs are even people who were sent out to do shady work.

They are inherently interconnected.

As for Lu Xuan, he didn't need to care about the backgrounds of these people.

Liu Qingxue was just one step away from achieving the highest rank.

In addition, her own martial arts talent is not weak.

At this moment, he drew his sword, unleashing a fierce sword aura that instantly pierced towards the group of Southern Alliance members.

Seeing this, Shen Yue and Shen Yu also shouted and attacked together.

Although they didn't have much combat experience, they had studied with Liu Qingxue for a while and had also taken the medicinal powder prepared by Lu Xuan, so their own strength was not weak.

"Heh, interesting. They actually dare to defy my Southern Alliance Gang."

"Then let's have one today, execute him on the spot!"

The leader wasn't in a hurry. He took out an apple from his pocket, took a bite, and then signaled the dozen or so gang members behind him to rush out.

These gang members were actually only about 700 or 800 pounds strong.

After all, they are just small fry. What kind of skills could they possibly have after training in the gang for a few days?

When they first clashed, Liu Qingxue actually managed to injure several of them.

When Liu Qingxue made her move, she showed no hesitation or fear. Her sharp sword was aimed directly at the heads of these people. If these gang members hadn't also possessed some skill, they would have lost their heads on the spot.

Shen Yu and Shen Yue each wielded a long sword.

Before Ye Luoxin, both of them had been instructed by Liu Qingxue on their moves, so they were learning swordsmanship.

Ye Luoxin watched from the side. These gang members were indeed of average cultivation and posed no real threat.

The only thing worth watching was the man eating an apple in the back.

Jiang Qin, who had no cultivation whatsoever, hid behind Lu Xuan, watching the chaotic fight unfold before her with worry in her eyes.

Lu Xuan even sat down on his own, poured himself a cup of tea, and slowly read while drinking it.

When they saw that someone's knife was about to strike Shen Yue.

Lu Xuan flicked his finger, sending the teacup flying.

With a loud bang!

The teacup shattered right in front of the man's face.

Having missed her chance to attack, Shen Yue seized the opportunity and stabbed her opponent in the chest with her sword.

Ye Luoxin could tell that Lu Xuan wanted to use this opportunity to hone the skills of the three of them.

Ye Luoxin strongly agreed with this point.

The enemy has already come to our door armed; are we supposed to calmly reason with them?

If you learn martial arts but don't use them or kill people, then it's useless.

The middle-aged man who had been munching on an apple saw that his men were all at a disadvantage. His eyes widened, and he viciously threw the apple fragments in his hand to the ground. With a single step, his robes billowed like a strong wind.

He spread his wings like an eagle and soared towards Liu Qingxue.

Of these three women, Liu Qingxue poses the greatest threat. If we take her down first, the others will naturally fall apart on their own.

However, just as the middle-aged man's figure took off into the air...

Ye Luoxin made her move.

The other party was a martial artist who had reached the entry level.

Moreover, his cultivation level had reached the middle stage of the first rank.

Liu Qingxue and the others were no match for them.

bass!

The experts from the Southern Alliance only felt as if a sword shadow had flashed before their eyes, and the next moment they felt a sharp pain in their arms.

"what!"

Bang!

The middle-aged man who was in the lead crashed to the ground.

He didn't even see clearly how Ye Luoxin made her move.

Both shoulders were pierced with bloody holes.

Ye Luoxin's sword hung over the middle-aged man's head.

"Stop it, all of you!"

The middle-aged man roared.

His life was now in her hands, and judging from her skills, her strength was far superior to his own, making it impossible for him to contend with her.

So they quickly called a halt.

For a moment, the members of the Southern Alliance all stopped in their tracks.

But Liu Qingxue did not hear Lu Xuan's shout.

Lu Xuan initially said that he wanted to kill all of them.

The moment the Southern Alliance gang paused, Liu Qingxue's offensive did not weaken.

puff!puff!puff!

He killed three people in succession.

Finally, a few timid people who were near the door hurriedly fled.

They joined gangs just to make a living.

Seeing that these people were powerful, and seeing no need to pledge their loyalty at this time, they hurriedly fled back to their gang to seek help.

"Damn it, what a traitor!"

The middle-aged man lying on the ground cursed under his breath.

"Alright, old man, you've got guts. I admit defeat this time!"

"You've crippled my hands and killed so many of my men today, so let's call this even!"

"I don't want the house anymore."

The middle-aged man spoke with a sharp glint in his eyes.

This is completely different from his initial gentle and refined image.

"My elder brother is the leader of the Southern Alliance Gang, a high-level first-rank martial artist. If you dare to touch me, you won't be able to bear the consequences."

Threatened by a middle-aged man.

Lu Xuan didn't care at all.

"Qingxue, cut off his head."

Upon hearing Lu Xuan's words, the man lying on the ground was immediately horrified.

He realized that Lu Xuan was not joking.

Moreover, it seems that Lu Xuan really didn't take the Southern Alliance Gang seriously from beginning to end.

"Wait a minute..."

Liu Qingxue took three steps forward, and with a swift stroke of her sword, she beheaded the refined-looking man.

Clean and neat.

Only blood splattered all over the bluestone slabs.
