Lu Chen's actions instantly enraged everyone.
Throughout the entire inn, nearly everyone shot to their feet.
Brimming with killing intent, they drew their blades and swords without hesitation and lunged forward.
"Fuck your mother!"
"You dare come here to shake us down? Chop him up!"
"You dog, go to hell!"
Boom!
A chaotic aura surged directly toward Lu Chen, vast and oppressive.
Yet not all of these people had opened the True Qi Hidden Realm!
Most had only reached the Physical Body Hidden Realm!
Only a handful belonged to the True Qi Hidden Realm.
Clang!
Lu Chen fiercely swung his long blade. Black light burst forth, as though it had transformed into the most fiendish demon in the world, instantly stirring the killing intent within everyone and sending it into an uncontrollable frenzy.
Puff puff puff puff!
"Ahhh!"
Miserable screams rang out as blood splattered.
Everyone charging toward him became a horrifying sight, losing control and flying backward on the spot.
Those with weaker strength nearly exploded outright.
Even the stronger ones screamed in agony, drenched in blood as they crashed into the distance and lost their ability to fight.
You taught a wicked man who did not know the immensity of heaven and earth a lesson. Merit Points +180 +180 +190
Lines of text rapidly appeared.
The people who had yet to charge over all changed expression. They abruptly stopped, sucking in cold breaths, shocked and horrified.
What kind of blade technique was that?
How terrifying!
With a single strike, so many experts could not withstand it!
"Who is Liu Sandao?"
Lu Chen's tone remained unchanged as he addressed the remaining people.
As his gaze swept over them, the remaining crowd no longer dared to play dumb with him. All of them shuddered, terror appearing on their faces, as though they were being watched by the god of death.
"It's not me, not me!"
"There's no Liu Sandao here. Liu Sandao isn't here."
"Liu Sandao is outside. He's selling melons outside Cui Manor's gate!"
"That's right, he's selling melons outside Cui Manor today..."
Everyone hurriedly spoke up.
They were afraid they would be too slow.
"Selling melons outside Cui Hu's gate?"
"Yes. He deliberately wants to provoke King Cui and disgust him, so he set up a stall there selling watermelons and vegetables..."
One person said uneasily.
"Thank you!"
Lu Chen replied.
Clang!
Blade light flashed, once again stirring the killing intent within their bodies. Their killing intent seemed to transform into terrifying weapons that ran wild inside their bodies, tearing outward from within.
Puff puff puff puff!
"Ahhh..."
Screams filled the entire inn as blood flew everywhere. It was a ghastly sight.
...Merit Points +180 ...+200 ...+190
Lu Chen turned and left.
By the counter.
The innkeeper beside the counter trembled as he crawled out from beneath the table. Looking at the exceptionally bloody scene before him, he felt only terror and disbelief.
They were all dead!
Those wicked men who had occupied his inn and run rampant these past few days were all dead...
Which hero had helped them vent their anger?
Outside Cui Manor.
An inconspicuous stall stood there.
Behind the stall sat a middle-aged man in a gray robe. He had a black-haired mole on his chin, a sharp monkey-like face, and his chest bared. He sat on a stool with a smile on his face.
"Melons for sale, melons for sale! If my melons aren't sweet, you don't pay."
Liu Sandao laughed. "Buy one of my melons, and I'll throw in a story. For example, King Cui keeps eighteen concubines outside, and when he was at the border, he snuck into a brothel at night and serviced thirty-six women in one night, leaving behind one hundred and eight illegitimate children... If you want to feast on gossip, come over quickly."
"Hahaha..."
On the rooftops to either side, quite a few people watched Liu Sandao with smiles on their faces.
What a Liu Sandao!
To disgust King Cui, he could make up absolutely anything.
Still, they were more than happy to see it!
Who told them they had all received favors from the Ye Family?
Naturally, they had to help the Ye Family vent their anger properly now.
Inside Cui Manor.
Hearing Liu Sandao's outrageous words, Cui Hu was so furious that his eyes turned red. He was nearly driven mad.
"Fuck him! I'm going to kill him!"
Cui Hu could no longer endure it. Even while forcing himself to bear his injuries, he wanted to head outside.
"Cui Hu, stop!"
King Cui spoke coldly, forcibly stopping him.
"Master, I cannot allow them to slander you like this!"
Cui Hu's eyes were bloodshot.
"No one can slander my reputation. Everyone knows what kind of person I am. It is not something they can smear just because they wish to."
Cui Zhengxuan said in a low voice.
"But..."
"Enough. Sit down."
Cui Zhengxuan said slowly.
Cui Hu's face was filled with grief and indignation, rage piling up in his heart. He could only sit back down unwillingly and smash his fist into the stone stool.
Damned bastard!
He wished he could slice that man into a thousand pieces!
"Melons for sale, melons for sale! Anyone who wants to hear more romantic tales about King Cui and Cui Hu, hurry over! If my melons aren't sweet, you don't pay..."
Liu Sandao continued to laugh.
But at that moment!
A man in a black robe and a bamboo hat walked over step by step and said coldly, "You are Liu Sandao?"
"You are?"
Liu Sandao looked surprised as he turned and sized up Lu Chen.
"I heard your blade technique is formidable, and that you only need three strikes to kill. Draw your blade."
Lu Chen's voice was icy.
"You want to ask me for instruction in blade techniques?"
Liu Sandao suddenly laughed. "My blade is a blade for killing."
"Draw your blade."
Lu Chen said indifferently.
The people on the surrounding rooftops were all astonished. One after another, they fixed their gazes on Lu Chen.
"Who is this?"
"His face can't be seen."
"Fuck, where did this guy come from? He ran here to seek death. Doesn't he know Liu Sandao's nickname is Reckless?"
"Could he be someone trying to stand up for King Cui?"
"You want to die?"
Liu Sandao forced a smile onto his face, threads of cold light emerging from his eyes. "Sir, you came here looking for trouble, didn't you?"
"I'll say it again. Draw your blade."
Lu Chen said coldly.
"Since that's the case, don't blame me!"
Liu Sandao narrowed his eyes, his palm lightning-fast as it gripped the hilt.
But while his blade technique was fast, Lu Chen's blade light was even faster.
Just as he was about to draw his long blade, a crisp clang rang out. Before anyone could see what had happened, an arm holding a blade flew high into the air, while thick blood gushed from his severed shoulder like a fountain.
"Ah!"
Liu Sandao immediately let out a miserable scream. His left hand clutched his empty right shoulder tightly, pain twisting his features as he staggered backward, his heart filled with terror.
His arm had actually been severed in a single strike.
How was that possible?
"Looks like your blade technique is nothing special after all!"
Lu Chen's tone was cold.
Splat!
Blade light flashed, instantly sweeping across Liu Sandao's knees.
"Ah!"
Liu Sandao screamed again and toppled backward, crashing onto the ground. Both his lower legs had been severed cleanly at the knees, white bones and crimson flesh exposed in a horrifying sight.
"My legs!"
Liu Sandao screamed in terror.
"What a disappointment. You cannot even take one strike from me. You are trash among trash. What right does trash like you have to keep using a blade?"
Lu Chen spoke coldly and casually swung his blade once more.
Splat!
Liu Sandao let out another miserable scream.
Another arm shot into the sky as a great torrent of blood sprayed forth.
By then, all four of his limbs had been severed by Lu Chen.
A dignified True Qi Hidden Realm expert had been carved into a human stump.
The sight made everyone around them turn pale in shock.
"Who are you?"
"Leave your name behind!"
"Bold! You dare wound someone!"
Everyone leaped down and shouted.
Even from the shadows came several extremely terrifying auras, like invisible mountains pressing down on Lu Chen, filled with indescribable oppression.
You severely taught a lesson to someone who bullied others by relying on power, making him understand how to be approachable from now on. Merit Points +230!
A line of text silently flashed before Lu Chen's eyes.
Lu Chen raised his head and looked directly toward Cui Manor's gate.
The fierce commotion had also startled King Cui and Cui Hu inside.
A pair of eyes was peering outside through the crack in the gate.
"Senior Cui Hu, this junior has come to pay a visit!"
Lu Chen's voice slowly carried over.
"It's Lu Chen!"
Cui Hu's heart jolted. He simply could not believe it.
How was that possible?
How could this kid possibly injure Liu Sandao?
Liu Sandao had genuinely opened the True Qi Hidden Realm!
The mysteries of true qi were far beyond what inner qi could compare to!
Not to mention injuring Liu Sandao, whether Lu Chen could even break through his defenses was another matter entirely!
Yet now... Liu Sandao lay on the ground drenched in blood, wailing miserably.
