At the Villa gate, after Lu Chuan beheaded a Fierce Tiger Gang member with one slash, he did not pause in the slightest. With a fierce burst forward, he moved like a ghost, charging straight towards the other Fierce Tiger Gang members guarding the entrance.

Clang, clang...

The War Blade trembled, carrying a piercing shriek through the air.

At this moment, Lu Chuan transformed his Five Elements Stance Training into a Five Elements Saber Technique.

Like a tiger roaring in the forest, like a demon ape shaking the mountain, every move and stance carved through the Villa gates in an instant.

In less than ten seconds, no fewer than twenty people had already fallen into pools of blood.

Lu Chuan's speed did not lessen in the slightest.

With the Forest Penetrating Deer Movement Technique beneath his feet and the rapid speed of the Limit Breaking State bolstering him, he swept forward like a violent gale, charging straight towards the Villa.

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack..."

Only then did the Fierce Tiger Gang members inside the Villa come to their senses.

For a time, furious roars rose without end.

"You bastard! You dare trespass into the Hall Master's residence and kill members of my Fierce Tiger Gang? You are courting death..."

"Kill him! Kill that brat and let him know that the Fierce Tiger Gang is not something just anyone can provoke!"

"Cut him into a thousand pieces and light him up as a sky lantern..."

Inside the Villa, figures rushed out from every direction, each immediately charging at Lu Chuan.

Their faces were savage, Sha Qi filling the heavens.

Lu Chuan sneered as he watched the Fierce Tiger Gang members rushing at him from all directions, bloodthirsty killing intent surfacing on his face.

Rather than retreat, he advanced, with no intention of yielding in the slightest.

Though these Fierce Tiger Gang members looked vicious, they were in truth merely martial men who had yet to reach rank. They had practiced Stake Techniques and were stronger than ordinary people, but compared to true Martial Artists, they were as far apart as heaven and earth.

With Lu Chuan's current strength, killing them was as easy and effortless as slaughtering chickens.

"All of you will die!"

With a low roar, Lu Chuan plunged into the crowd like a Fierce Tiger entering a flock of sheep. His blade rose and fell, hacking through them as though chopping melons and vegetables.

Wherever he went, severed limbs flew everywhere. Not one person could withstand even a single slash from him, and none died with an intact corpse.

In less than thirty seconds, at least a hundred people had fallen to the ground.

This scene immediately terrified the other Fierce Tiger Gang members charging in from behind, sending chills through their entire bodies.

"A Martial Artist... This brat is a true Martial Artist. His strength is far beyond what we imagined."

"We are no match for him. This man is too strong—run!"

"Go notify the Hall Master! Only the Hall Master has the strength to deal with this brat. None of us are his match."

Everyone's faces turned pale. Trembling all over, they retreated one by one, their courage utterly shattered by Lu Chuan's slaughter.

Too strong!

Not only had one man carved through the encirclement of several hundred people in less than thirty seconds, he had even killed over a hundred of them.

Most importantly, not a single drop of blood had stained Lu Chuan from beginning to end.

That was truly terrifying.

How powerful did one have to be to control the battlefield so completely, carve through hundreds of people, and not be touched by a single drop of blood?

"A bunch of trash!"

Lu Chuan snorted coldly, War Blade in hand, and walked step by step towards the Villa before him.

For every step he took forward, the Remaining Fierce Tiger Gang members took a step back, their gazes trembling as they looked at him.

Just then, a gloomy voice rang out.

The next moment, a Middle-aged Man clad in a black Combat Suit strode out of the Villa, carrying a pitch-black Short Axe in his hand. His eyes fixed on Lu Chuan like those of a venomous snake.

The newcomer was Liu Bao, Hall Master of the Fierce Tiger Gang's East Hall.

"Hall Master..."

The many Fierce Tiger Gang members who had been forced back step by step by Lu Chuan's aura hurriedly bowed respectfully to Liu Bao.

"Hmph, get out of the way! You disgraceful things! So many of you surrounded one man, yet over a hundred of you were killed. What use are you?"

Liu Bao snorted and suddenly kicked a blue-haired young man who was trembling all over. The kick sent him flying backwards while vomiting blood, smashing him fiercely into a stone pillar.

The powerful impact snapped the stone pillar in two.

Blood streamed all over his body, and it was clear he would not survive.

From this alone, one could see just how brutal Liu Bao usually was. He killed even his own subordinates without hesitation.

"Lu Chuan... you little piece of trash. I truly did not expect you to have the nerve to come kill your way into my residence."

After kicking one of his own subordinates flying, Liu Bao did not even spare him a glance. Instead, he turned his savage face towards Lu Chuan and snarled, "I underestimated you. I never thought you had cultivated Internal Strength and achieved Martial Arts Reaching Rank..."

"Where is my Younger Sister?"

Lu Chuan looked calmly at Liu Bao and asked coldly, "What did you do to her?"

"You want to know? Don't worry. Once I sever your limbs and turn you into a human jar, you'll know."

Liu Bao grinned viciously. "Brat, if you had known your place, stayed away, and pretended none of this ever happened, then everything could have been discussed.

After all, you have already achieved Martial Arts Reaching Rank and become a proper Martial Artist. I had no desire to make a move against you.

But unfortunately... you were seeking death! You actually came to my residence to kill, and you even killed so many of my people.

If I do not cut you into a thousand pieces and swallow you alive today, how will I, Liu Bao, continue to survive in the Fierce Tiger Gang..."

The instant the word "survive" left his mouth, Liu Bao suddenly moved.

A vicious gleam flashed in his eyes as he burst forward like a cheetah, pouncing straight towards Lu Chuan.

At the same time, the Short Axe in his hand cleaved out fiercely, tearing out streaks of axe light. Carrying astonishing sharpness, they swept forward like a gale and arrived before Lu Chuan in the blink of an eye.

Clang... clang...

At that moment, Lu Chuan suddenly moved. He raised his hand, lifting the War Blade and fiercely blocking Liu Bao's descending Short Axe.

A powerful impact erupted amid the clash of metal. The two mighty forces separated the instant they met.

The next moment, Liu Bao's expression changed drastically.

A flash of astonishment appeared on his previously savage face.

"How is this possible? Your strength... Pugh..."

He cried out in disbelief. As a powerful force erupted through him, he felt as though his internal organs were about to be shattered.

Before he could finish speaking, his entire body trembled and he was immediately sent flying backwards.

His throat sweetened, and blood sprayed wildly from his mouth.

With just one slash, Liu Bao had already been seriously injured.

This sight instantly stunned the Fierce Tiger Gang members watching from around them, and they shouted in disbelief.

"How is this possible? The Hall Master actually lost! He could not block even one slash from that brat."

"The Hall Master is a First-Order Peak Martial Artist, and he cultivates a Mid-grade Skin Refining Method. He has even mastered the Martial Skill Wind Breaking Slash.

"With one axe strike, he can erupt with fifteen thousand jin of force, yet he could not block that brat's single slash. Just how terrifying is this guy's strength?"

"Run! Hurry and run... He is a Killing God. The Hall Master is doomed, and I do not want to be buried with him."

Everyone's expressions changed. Amid panicked shouts, they immediately scattered and fled in all directions.

They feared that if they were even one step too slow, Lu Chuan would split them apart with a single slash.
