Water Ghost, God Hunter, Immortal Healer, and the Great Xia's Number One Martial Saint!

"Murder! Murder!"

Upon hearing Li Xingdao and Liu Laosan's consecutive words, Li Lai understood perfectly well that he had lost all hope of begging for mercy.

He struggled and screamed in terror, but before he could finish two shouts, the martial artist from the Baitou County pharmacy standing next to him suddenly raised his long sword and slashed down hard at his neck.

"laugh!"

With a sound of a long knife slicing through flesh, Li Lai's treacherous head fell to the ground instantly, and a spurt of blood gushed out.

His eyes were wide open in terror, his face still showing fear, but he immediately lost his breath, his body slumped, and the headless corpse fell to the ground.

Seeing Li Lai in this state, Zhang Cui gasped and turned deathly pale.

However, there was also a sense of relief in her expression, a hint of joy arising from it, yet she also looked bewildered, standing there blankly watching this scene.

As Li Xingdao looked up, he saw a familiar young boy leaving in the distance.

He patted Zhang Cui's shoulder reassuringly, "Go back to your room and rest. Don't worry about anything. When I get back, just serve me dinner."

Zhang Cui, who had been in a daze, immediately came to her senses upon hearing Li Xingdao's words and nodded repeatedly.

Then, under Li Xingdao's gaze, she turned back into the courtyard and locked the gate. Li Xingdao then locked the gate from the outside as well. He then climbed up the courtyard wall, watched her lock the main room door, and then came down.

He glanced at Li Lai's corpse, then calmly spoke to Liu Laosan:

"Brother Liu, this thief has six brothers and a dozen or so male relatives. My point is that not a single man should be spared."

"Hehe, not only is he so talented, but he is also so calm and composed. It seems that I, Liu Laosan, have really found a treasure for the old boxing master this time."

Upon hearing Li Xingdao's words, Liu Laosan chuckled, then his eyes flashed with a glint of cunning. "In that case, let's leave no one alive."

As soon as Liu Laosan finished speaking, he waved his hand, and the dozen or so martial arts practitioners from the pharmacy beside him immediately followed him nimbly into the village. Li Xingdao also followed closely behind, his eyes cold and hard, carrying a long-handled steel axe.

"They've taken over the brick kiln. They've just finished lunch, but the kiln is still running in shifts to fire bricks. They should all be there right now."

As Li Xingdao led his men into the village, he offered to guide them.

Hearing this, Liu Laosan smiled and said, "Don't worry, I brought more than just this many people with me."

"Now our men are guarding every intersection around the village. The wheat seedlings have just sprouted and there's no land left to grow. If I lead a few groups of men to stand around the village, we can keep an eye on everything coming out of the village. Anyone who goes out will die."

"This time in Peach Blossom Village, I will definitely find out every single one of those villains who harmed your parents and stole your family property."

As Liu Laosan spoke, a ruthless look appeared on his face.

Upon hearing this, Li Xingdao immediately clasped his hands in gratitude and thanked him, saying, "Thank you so much for your great help, Brother Liu."

Li Xingdao looked extremely grateful. The other party had gone to such lengths because of his talent, and he had to accept this kindness, no matter what the reason was.

"It's alright, killing these beasts is a very satisfying thing."

Liu Laosan laughed heartily as he spoke.

After speaking, he glanced around the village and said directly to Li Xingdao, "Those staying at home are mostly young men and women who can't do much work. Why don't we..."

"Let's go to the brick kiln first, kill everyone working there, then come back and clear out the house. That'll take care of things, okay?"

As Liu Laosan spoke, he looked at Li Xingdao with a questioning gaze.

Upon hearing this, Li Xingdao's face immediately broke into a smile: "Then let's proceed accordingly."

After saying that, Li Xingdao's eyes flashed with a cold light. He picked up his steel axe and followed Liu Laosan and the others toward the brick kiln.

To Li Xingdao's surprise, it seemed that Liu Laosan had secretly sent people to survey the area around Peach Blossom Village, and was not unfamiliar with the road from the village to the brick kiln.

When Li Xingdao led them into the brick kiln, he hadn't pointed out the way himself many times along the way.

Upon reaching the outside of the brick kiln, they happened to see a group of people working inside, carrying steel forks and looking fierce, rushing out towards them. They had bumped into them by chance.

"Li Xingdao, you traitorous bastard, what are you doing here with outsiders!"

Li Nao, the leader, looked at Li Xingdao, who was arriving with Liu Laosan and his group, and his expression changed. He shouted at Li Xingdao, "How can you do this? Do you think I'm doing justice to the pork belly and rice I feed you every day?"

"Hmph, these things originally belonged to my father and mother. I only eat your pork belly because I cut down enough trees for you so you could earn money."

Li Xingdao snorted coldly upon hearing this, and said, unwilling to say more, "Things have come to this point, there's no point in saying more. Since you killed my parents and seized my family property, you should have expected this day to come. Let's see who's stronger!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Xingdao charged forward bravely, becoming the first to attack the person in front of him.

"Keep up! Don't let them hurt our righteous brothers!"

Seeing Li Xingdao charging so bravely, Liu Laosan also shouted at his men, and then led more than ten of his men to follow Li Xingdao and rush towards the crowd of more than twenty people—a mix of teenagers and adults.

Behind them, several others who had come from the village to help looked horrified and watched from a distance, not daring to get involved.

"We outnumber them and have better weapons. We're not afraid of them. If we kill them, no one will know that the manager of Baitu Pharmacy died in our village!"

Seeing that Li Xingdao had brought so many people, and with his own fierce attack, Li Hen, the leader, had a ruthless look on his face. He turned around and shouted angrily, then led more than twenty of his own men, including half-grown boys, to charge back at Li Xingdao and his men.

They were incredibly fierce, vividly demonstrating the barbarity and wickedness among the villagers in the mountains.

Li Xingdao charged ahead, his eyes resolute, and was the first to engage Li Hen, who was also charging ahead.

"snort!"

Li shouted fiercely, his face full of malice, and thrust the iron fork in his hand fiercely towards Li Xingdao's chest, clearly intending to kill him first.

But in Li Xingdao's eyes, his speed was as slow as a snail.

"Whoosh!"

Li Xingdao flicked his left hand, snatching the long fork from Li Hen's hand just as it was about to pierce him, and in doing so, he also dragged Li Hen down, making him stumble.

Then, before he could react, Li Xingdao instantly stepped forward and swung his long axe forward.

"laugh!"

With a loud thud, the sound of an axe blade piercing flesh rang out, and Li Hen's head instantly fell to the ground, blood spurting into the air, his body collapsing directly to the ground.

Li Xingdao was at the forefront, but he wasn't much faster.

As he chopped off Li Hen's head, the people from the pharmacy behind him rushed forward, shouting and slashing repeatedly.

The apothecary's martial artist, with his agile skills, not only dodged the farmers' long-weapon thrusts, but also closed in and swung his blade, beheading one after another.

Liu Laosan was even more agile, easily killing one of them, and then charging towards the second.

In the blink of an eye, Li Hen, Li Nao, Li Huai, Li Gou, Li Xiong, Li Du, and Li Wai were already dead!

The villagers who had come to help at the brick kiln and were standing behind them were instantly terrified, their faces turning ashen.

The remaining teenagers, on the other hand, revealed a frenzied ruthlessness.
