Jiang Liu returned to his residence in the carriage, lost in thought.

As soon as I stepped off the carriage and approached the courtyard, I heard a cry of "Ouch!" and I was immediately curious. Had someone provoked the Giant Strength Demonic Ape?

When Jiang Liu opened the courtyard gate, he was immediately astonished by what he saw inside. Seven people were piled up like a human pyramid, with the Giant Strength Demonic Ape pressing them down with its left hand, while the Giant Strength Demonic Ape continued to eat chunks of meat with its right hand.

Jiang Liu watched all this speechlessly, and hurriedly ordered the Giant Strength Demonic Ape to release them. Only then did the Giant Strength Demonic Ape withdraw its left hand, and the people who had been pressed down were finally able to escape from the Giant Strength Demonic Ape's clutches.

Then everyone ran away without saying anything. Jiang Liu didn't say anything either. It was good that they were taught a lesson so that no one would dare to bother them when he wasn't around.

Jiang Liu glanced at the sky, closed the courtyard gate, and continued his cultivation.

As night fell, Jiang Liu appeared at the Wang Family hall. As soon as he appeared, Wang Jian hurriedly came forward to greet him, "My lord!"

Jiang Liu nodded and led the way into the Wang Family Hall.

"Speak! What do you want from me?"

"My lord, I wanted to ask if my Wang Family could take over some small and medium-sized forces?"

"You can make these decisions yourself; you don't need to report to me!" Jiang Liu said casually.

"I was afraid of disrupting your plans, so I informed you beforehand!" Wang Jian quickly and respectfully said.

Jiang Liu nodded in satisfaction, then thought for a moment and said to Wang Jian, "There's no plan at the moment, you can handle it yourself!"

"Yes, sir! There is one more thing to report to you!" Wang Jian continued.

"What's up?"

"The Hai family wants to ask you, sir, if the Hai family can send a few people to Wind City?" Wang Jian said hurriedly.

Jiang Liu was taken aback. The Hai family wanted to come to Wind City? After a moment's thought, he said to Wang Jian, "You handle it! If the Hai family comes, they should be able to help you a little!"

"Is there anything else?" Jiang Liu asked casually.

"Reporting to you, sir, there is nothing else!" Wang Jian replied respectfully.

Jiang Liu nodded, then left the Wang Family Hall, his figure gradually disappearing into the air.

Jiang Liu the Wang Family and was heading back to his residence when, as he passed a courtyard, three Man in Black suddenly jumped out.

The three Man in Black were visibly startled when they saw Jiang Liu, but then continued on their respective routes without saying anything.

Just as both sides were preparing to move away, three Man in Black suddenly attacked Jiang Liu. One casually struck Jiang Liu with a palm, another pulled out a pair of Judge's Brush and attacked Jiang Liu, and the third drew a large knife and attacked Jiang Liu.

Jiang Liu was wary when he saw the three suddenly appear. When he saw that they were indeed attacking him, he immediately activated his Yuan Qi shield, his feet Elusive Shadows as he retreated to avoid their attacks.

The three attacks missed, and they continued to pursue Jiang Liu. Jiang Liu continued to move Elusive Shadows and dodge, thinking that the three Rank 9 Martial Practitioner gathered together must be plotting something.

Judging from their posture, they were going to kill him to silence him, and Jiang Liu felt a surge of frustration.

The three men surrounded Jiang Liu from three directions, launching a fierce attack without asking any questions. They were secretly wondering when such a young Rank 9 Martial Practitioner had appeared in Wind City.

The three exchanged glances. The martial artist wielding the brush leaped into the air, the martial artist wielding the knife launched a few rapid attacks before dodging to the left, and the martial artist wielding the palm gathered his energy and charged forward with all his might towards Jiang Liu.

Seeing one of the opponents fly into the air, Jiang Liu immediately spread out his Divine Sense, carefully on guard, and drew his broadsword with his right hand to block the palm-wielding martial artist.

With Fist Burst punch, Jiang Liu launched himself at the swordsman. Two soft "thump" sounds rang out, and Jiang Liu was sent flying into the air.

Jiang Liu took advantage of the momentum and flew into the air, just about to leave, when suddenly a strong gust of wind attacked. It was the martial artist wielding the brush attacking.

Fortunately, Jiang Liu was prepared. He stepped into the Space Condensation and Eight Steps of Trampling to take six steps in a row. Instantly, the martial artist using the brush paused in mid-air. Jiang Liu flicked his left hand, and an Ice Blade pierced straight into the martial artist's dantian.

With a soft "whoosh," the martial artist using the pen fell to the ground before he could even scream.

Upon seeing Jiang Liu flee into the air, the two martial artists on the ground immediately took flight, preparing to continue their attack on Jiang Liu.

Before they could even attack Jiang Liu, they saw their companion fall to the ground. They quickly froze and retreated.

Seeing the remaining two martial artists preparing to escape, Jiang Liu threw a punch at the one wielding the brush with his left hand, and a tiger's roar immediately followed.

He then took a step forward to catch up with the fist-wielding martial artist and launched a Demon Suppression Blade Technique martial artist, instantly enveloping the palm-wielding martial artist in a burst of blade light.

The martial artist turned around and blocked the attack with all his might. With a loud "bang," the sword light was extinguished by the palm strike. Immediately afterward, the martial artist felt a sharp pain in his dantian, followed by a series of explosions throughout his meridians. Finally, everything went black, and he collapsed to the ground.

Jiang Liu didn't even glance at him before rushing towards the martial artist wielding the brush. The martial artist's mind was momentarily stunned by the tiger's roar, causing him to pause on the field. Just as he regained his senses, he prepared to flee.

Jiang Liu took six steps in mid-air, instantly freezing the martial artist in mid-air, unable to move. Jiang Liu's spiritual power then attacked the martial artist.

Before long, the pen-wielding martial artist explained the purpose of their gathering. After listening, Jiang Liu struck the pen-wielding martial artist with a Frost Nether Palm, and then delivered a Frost Nether Palm to each of the other two.

It turns out this was a joint conspiracy between the White Saint Society, the Lotus Sect, and Buddhism. They had just finished discussing it here when they ran into Jiang Liu. They assumed Jiang Liu had been eavesdropping, hence the misunderstanding.

Jiang Liu could only sigh inwardly at this misunderstanding; it seemed that even the most damned could not escape it!

A gust of energy swept by, and the three corpses vanished into Xu Wu. Jiang Liu picked up their belongings scattered on the ground and headed straight for the South City.

This battle, though it sounds long, actually lasted less than two minutes from the start of the fight to the deaths of all three.

Not long after Jiang Liu left, two figures appeared here. They looked around but didn't find anything. Then they exchanged a glance, said nothing, and left.

Jiang Liu passed by his own courtyard without going in, heading straight for the South City gate, afraid that the sounds of the battle would attract attention. Little did he know that he had already been exposed.

Jiang Liu reached the depths of the dense forest outside the South City, randomly found a large tree, leaped up, sat cross-legged, and spread his Divine Sense to check if anyone was following him.

At the same time, he was thinking that if the three of them hadn't been separated, he wouldn't have been able to kill them so quickly. If the three of them had been fighting together, it would have taken some effort to kill them.

In the Feng Family, in Feng Boyun's courtyard, Feng Boyun appeared, stroking his chin in deep thought. He hadn't expected Jiang Liu to be so powerful, killing three Rank 9 Martial Practitioner so quickly.

Moreover, it was done without leaving a trace. Feng Boyun felt a growing appreciation for Jiang Liu's ruthlessness and meticulousness. He was filled with anticipation for the upcoming Martial Arts Tournament.

On the top floor of the Ascension Tower, in a room, a figure appeared, sitting in a chair and pondering to himself. When did Wind City produce such a powerful expert? But why does his back look so familiar?

Just then, Murong Yin's voice rang out from outside, "Grandpa, did you go out just now?"

Murong Lie heard Murong Yin's voice, he was startled and immediately realized who the figure was. It seemed he would have to ask Yin'er about it tomorrow.

Jiang Liu meditated in the dense forest until dawn before standing up, disposing of the weapons and miscellaneous items he had collected, and then left the forest, slowly walking into Wind City.
