Swordholder

Clang!

Yang Liu drew a long sword and charged forward again, joining all the high-ranking members of the Yang family in a fierce attack on Chen Yuan.

The two sides clashed fiercely, and for a time, the entire courtyard was in complete chaos.

Not only were swordsmen like Cai Fu and Gao Zhongliang engaged in a frenzied battle.

And Li Wei, disguised as a golden warrior, launched a brutal massacre against the Yang family members!

The invisible glutinous rice was also secretly helping Cai Fu and Gao Zhongliang to leave as soon as possible.

Especially since Zhou Ye was also there, it was easy for him to lead them towards Zhou Yang's backyard amidst the chaos.

Cai Fu, Gao Zhongliang, and others even shouted at Yang Liu to be careful, and that they must kill Chen Yuan to avenge him, which made the Yang family members vomit blood.

This seems to confirm the strength of their relationship with the Yang family!

Upon hearing this, the other Wuxiang Guards instinctively joined forces with the Yang family.

However, Zhu Xiong and other directors went to pursue Cai Fu, Gao Zhongliang, and others.

Some guests, seeing the two sides locked in battle, immediately left the spot and ran out of the Yang family's residence.

When the others inquired about what had happened, they instinctively connected it to the fact that the Yang family had colluded with the Swordholder and had caused the deaths of the Xu family's high-ranking members.

Instantly, the entire Tianshan County was in an uproar, with countless people in a frenzy.

"What? Yang Liu of the Yang family, the dignified Chief Enforcement Officer, is actually a spy for the Swordholder?"

"Did they collude with the Swordholder to ambush high-ranking members of the Xu family in the temple outside the southern suburbs?"

"My God, no wonder! No wonder so many high-ranking members of the Xu family are dead! It's all because of that traitor Yang Liu!"

"Has Yang Liu gone mad, or has she been bewitched, to do something so incredibly stupid?"

······

······

The entire Tianshan County was in an uproar.

Countless people were dumbfounded.

Especially knowing that Chen Yuan made a vow to find out the remnants of the Sword-wielding clique and the spies within seven days!

I never expected that they would be found out in the Yang family!

Moreover, Yang Liu is the traitor!

Although many people found it unbelievable and could not believe it, they still looked to the Yang family, wanting to capture a swordsman and make a great contribution!

Even the garrison of Tianqing County was alarmed and rushed to surround the Yang family.

······

Prefectural Governor's Office.

When Zhu Xin heard this news, her gaze sharpened.

"Wow, you've got guts! Daring to pin this huge label on Yang Liu?"

"Heh heh, that's good now, Yang Liu, you're dead meat!"

As Zhu Xin spoke, he led the Zhu family members toward the Yang family.

"Ji Xiaomi, my best friend, this time, I finally avenged you, although it wasn't me who did it."

Throughout the journey, Zhu Xin narrowed her eyes, her gaze filled with a sense of reminiscence.

······

Juncheng Mansion, Shu family.

"So, what do you think of that kid?"

Prefect Shu Zhenyue was a middle-aged man with thick eyebrows and big eyes. He held a teacup in his hand, gently brushed away the tea leaves floating inside, and asked in a deep voice.

"Very bold, very arrogant."

The handsome young man spoke calmly.

This young man was none other than Shu Tian, ​​who had previously hesitated to make a move in front of the Yang family's gate.

But at this moment, he no longer seemed hesitant; he was clearly a man of great composure.

"Heh, it seems that it really might be that wretched woman Zhu Xin helping him!"

Shu Zhenyue narrowed his eyes and said coldly.

Shu Tian's gaze sharpened. "Why would that woman help him?"

Shu Zhenyue didn't speak, but narrowed his eyes, a look of reminiscence on his face. "Did you see the little girl next to Chen Yuan?"

Shu Tian raised an eyebrow slightly and leaned forward a little. "Father, are you referring to that little demon?"

"That's right."

Shu Zhenyue's lips curled up. "She looks almost exactly like Ji Xiaomi back then, and that stinky woman Zhu Xin was Ji Xiaomi's best friend."

Upon hearing this, Shu Tian's expression changed drastically. "That woman who captured the monstrous swordsman Lu Chengfeng, and was hailed as the one who could inherit the mantle of Grandmaster Fan Tianming?"

"That's right, it's Ji Xiaomi, the Grand Master of the Formless Realm!"

Shu Zhenyue's eyes revealed admiration, "If Lu Chengfeng is allowed to grow stronger, wouldn't we have another Grandmaster of the Sword in a few decades!"

Upon hearing this, Shu Tian's expression changed drastically.

"The Grandmaster with the Sword is at the Great Perfection of the Dao Platform realm. Wielding a holy sword, his combat power is terrifying and astonishing."

Shu Zhenyue murmured, his eyes filled with respect for the strong, "Just two steps away from being able to rival our Wuxiang Sect Master."

Upon hearing this, Shu Tian was utterly shocked.

He could now more clearly perceive the weight of this Grandmaster Swordsman.

"What should we do with that kid named Chen Yuan?"

Shu Tian asked curiously.

"Just don't provoke him. Let him and that woman Zhu Xin do whatever they want."

Shu Zhenyue took another sip of tea. "That woman Zhu Xin's ambitions lie in the prefectural city, and even the capital. Why should we antagonize her?"

"Once she leaves, won't her place be mine?"

Shu Tian immediately showed an expression of admiration, "Father is truly wise!"

Just then, a servant rushed in and quickly recounted what was happening at the Yang family's residence.

"What? Chen Yuan actually mistook Yang Liu for a spy who wields the sword?"

Upon hearing this, Shu Tian's eyes widened suddenly.

He then looked at Shu Zhenyue with even greater admiration, "Father was truly farsighted, allowing me to leave ahead of time, and even providing this reason."

"Um."

Shu Zhenyue gave a slight nod and smiled, "Concealing one's talents and hiding one's edge isn't necessarily out of fear, but rather to ensure a safer retreat!"

···

······

The Yang family's residence was engulfed in flames!

When Cai Fu, Gao Zhongliang, Zhou Ye, and others fled, they continued to set fires, making the entire Yang residence even more chaotic.

The sounds of fighting, shouts, screams, and bursts of fire mingled together, causing many members of the Yang family to have bloodshot eyes and roar in fury.

Meanwhile, the battle continued in the courtyard hall.

Chen Yuan had already unleashed the Demon God Devouring Heaven Technique, his head sprouting horns, his hair turning completely white, and his hands transforming into sharp claws, making his combat power reach a terrifying level.

"You...you're a demon!"

Yang Liu, whose head had already transformed into a sheep's head, exclaimed in surprise. After exchanging a few blows with Chen Yuan's Tianzheng Sword, she simply withdrew her broadsword.

Chen Yuan did the same, wanting to test his physical body and see which was superior.

boom!

The two fought fiercely. Chen Yuan possessed the Dragon Binding Fighting Technique, and his punches, kicks, and shouts were incredibly fast and powerful!

"Buzz!"

Yang Liu punched Chen Yuan in the chest, and Chen Yuan grabbed at the head!

The five sharp claws, like five steel blades, cut through the air with a sonic boom.

Yang Liu's pupils shrank. He couldn't afford to fight Chen Yuan to the death. He threw a punch at Chen Yuan's arm, but Chen Yuan pulled his arm back and his hand landed on Yang Liu's arm!

"hey-hey!"

Chen Yuan grinned and suddenly pulled!

Hiss!

The sharp claws instantly tore Yang Liu's arm to shreds, leaving it like tattered willow catkins.

"you······"

Yang Liu was shocked and quickly retreated.

Chen Yuan pounced like a cheetah, his sharp five claws wreathed in dark demonic energy, instantly transforming into giant claws three or four meters long, which he slashed out with fierce force!

"boom!"

The giant claw tore the ground apart, but Yang Liu had already dodged it!

The disheveled willows opened Chen Yuan's eyes in horror.

The other party was actually determined to take them both down with them, fighting to the death!

Chen Yuan was very confident in his defense. He could withstand eight or ten moves from his opponent without much trouble. If Yang Liu were caught by him, he would kill her in one move!

kill!

Chen Yuan roared and charged forward again.

The rest of the Yang family's high-ranking members rushed over and surrounded Chen Yuan.

Their eyes gleamed with demonic light, their rage was boundless, and their murderous aura had materialized, chilling to the bone.

If it weren't for Chen Yuan, the Yang family wouldn't have ended up in this situation.

Bang bang bang bang! The two sides clashed fiercely, a series of impacts accompanied by roars, and the raging winds and demonic energy tore figures apart!

"ah······"

Screams rang out one after another as many of the Yang family's high-ranking members were torn to pieces by Chen Yuan.

His eyes gleamed with a demonic light as he charged out of the crowd and rushed towards Yang Liu once more, his eyes filled with bloodlust and excitement.
