Killing You Is a Robber Cultivator

Inside the room.

Shopkeeper Wang and his son retreated in terror, while Liu Yanran removed her mask and looked coldly at the father and son before her.

"You... don't kill me, think about your future. Even if you escape after killing me, what about your sister?"

Shopkeeper Wang's trembling face was deathly pale. He immediately knelt on the ground, cold sweat breaking out on his ashen face, as he continuously pleaded for mercy.

However, Liu Yanran smiled when Shopkeeper Wang hit her weak spot. Compared to her decisiveness in the past, there was now a hint of cunning.

"The robber cultivators killed you father and son, how could it possibly involve me?"

Looking at the Wang father and son, who had arrogantly bullied her just a few days ago, now cowering before her like stray dogs begging for mercy, a sense of satisfaction flickered in Liu Yanran's eyes.

Seeing the killing intent in Liu Yanran's eyes, Wang Sheng immediately pleaded, "No, no! This shop was forcibly taken by my father, it has nothing to do with me. If you want to kill someone, kill him!"

Shopkeeper Wang's face turned ashen when he saw his son's words. He trembled as he pointed at his son, "Beast... beast! You are a beast!"

At this moment, the father and son were turning on each other, which made Liu Yanran feel even more delighted. However, just as the father and son were about to turn on each other, a sudden change occurred.

"Son!"

Shopkeeper Wang roared. While they were arguing, Wang Sheng, under the guise of their bodies, finally channeled some mana. With his hand, he hurled a fireball directly at Liu Yanran's chest from such close range.

"Bitch! Die!"

Seeing Liu Yanran's panicked eyes, unable to dodge, Wang Sheng's face contorted into a ferocious grin.

Boom~

However, the fireball passed directly through Liu Yanran's figure and slammed into the door, setting it ablaze. Wang Sheng stared in shock and anger, "You!"

Liu Yanran's figure was nowhere to be seen. The moment Wang Sheng reacted, a blood-stained long sword protruded from his chest.

"Son!"

Seeing the sword in his son's chest, Shopkeeper Wang let out a heart-wrenching cry of shock and rage.

Puchi!

The long sword pierced through his body and then plunged into Shopkeeper Wang's chest. The room was instantly filled with a thick smell of blood.

As the flames died down, the sound of soft footsteps could be heard. Liu Yanran then calmly walked in from outside the door.

Wang Sheng, looking up, stared at the scene in shock, "You! This is a formation!"

Seeing Wang Sheng's unwilling gaze, Liu Yanran sneered, "Do you think the fireball could have ignited the door and attracted the patrol team if it hadn't hit me?"

"Even if you screamed your lungs out, and this shop burned to ashes, no one outside would hear a sound or see any change."

"Ruthless!" Wang Sheng rasped, feeling his strength draining away. He looked at his father's unseeing eyes and couldn't help but let out a bitter smile.

"Father, I've disappointed you..."

However, Liu Yanran maintained a safe distance from the scene, coldly manipulating her flying sword with the Object Manipulation Technique, delivering a final throat-slitting blow that extinguished the father and son's lives.

"The strong prey on the weak; this is the law of survival in this world."

Looking at the two corpses, Liu Yanran coldly began to loot the father and son's wealth, especially the spirit stone pouch on the table.

The next day, as dawn broke, an urgent report arrived at the Patrol Prefecture.

"Senior Brother Lin, something terrible has happened! Last night, robber cultivators killed the Wang father and son from the west city and looted everything in their shop."

Lin Chang'an, who had been listening to music all night, became furious upon hearing this. He slammed his fist on the table, "What! Robber cultivators are running rampant in my jurisdiction?"

Zhang Qing, hearing this, also perked up. Playing along, he said with feigned anger, "Junior Brother, these robber cultivators have been too audacious lately. They simply don't respect our Great Sword Sect."

In the main hall, Li Han, Qi Feng, and the Liu sisters watched the two of them acting, finding the scene both comical and ironic.

Even Liu Feiyu, who saw through their act, couldn't help but feel a hint of embarrassment, her gaze drifting away, clearly guilty.

"Li Han, Qi Feng, from today onwards, you two will lead your men and strictly guard the area. Do not let these robber cultivators find any more loopholes."

"Yes!" The two bowed in unison. At this moment, Li Han looked up somewhat awkwardly, "Senior Brother, the Wang family's shop was on the street before the Liu family. We just took over, so some oversight is normal."

Good heavens, seeing Li Han's smooth performance, a look of appreciation flashed in Lin Chang'an's eyes, but his face remained stern. Upon hearing this, he immediately reprimanded him.

"What! Just because we took over does that mean there will be oversight? From today onwards, I don't want to hear this."

"Yes!"

As Lin Chang'an erupted, the person who came to report wisely withdrew.

While Lin Chang'an's anger had not subsided, Liu Yanran slowly stepped forward.

"Senior Brother Lin, this shop originally belonged to my sister and me. Now that the Wang father and son are dead, the shop is still under our name!"

At this moment, Liu Yanran slowly produced an identity token, which clearly recorded the ownership of the shop.

However, upon seeing this, Lin Chang'an showed a troubled expression, "It might not be appropriate for you to take it over right now!"

At this, Liu Yanran smiled calmly and slowly placed a heavy bag of spirit stones on the table, which made a crisp sound.

"Senior Brother Lin, the Wang father and son were just unlucky. If they hadn't forcibly occupied our family's shop, it would have been us sisters who were unlucky last night."

Seeing Liu Yanran's understanding, her anger from yesterday vanished. As if she had suddenly become enlightened, a smile appeared in Lin Chang'an's eyes. He comfortably sat down, picked up a cup of tea without any pretense, and looked her up and down.

"The Wang father and son were just killed by robber cultivators, so I had you two sisters go back and take over the shop. This..."

Seeing Lin Chang'an's teasing gaze, Liu Yanran immediately smiled and placed another bag of spirit stones on the table.

"This shop originally belonged to my sister and me. Who can say anything about Senior Brother?" Liu Yanran said calmly, sounding completely justified at that moment.

Lin Chang'an, however, frowned and said seriously, "This shop is in a prime location, and you are currently..."

He glanced meaningfully at the black meridional patterns revealed on Liu Yanran's neck. Liu Yanran simply smiled, understanding his implication.

"The street where the incident happened was originally managed by my Liu Family. I am more familiar with it than anyone. Liu Yanran is willing to join the patrol team."

Liu Yanran said this with clear eyes, then placed another bag of spirit stones on the table. "Now is a time when people are needed. Senior Brother Lin should not be so rigid."

Liu Yanran and Lin Chang'an were speaking in riddles, a scene that left Liu Feiyu somewhat confused. However, Zhang Qing understood perfectly, and it was precisely because he understood that his eyes widened.

Good heavens, Junior Brother Lin's methods are as sharp as ever. Not only is he playing both sides, but he's also gained a cultivator at the sixth layer of Qi Condensation as a subordinate.

And once she's gone, this shop will fall back into his hands anyway.

Brilliant!
