"The big brother is right! That Fei fellow is a real piece of trash. All he does is bully the old, the young, women, and children. I can't stand him. What a waste of space!" As soon as Li Hao finished speaking, a child's innocent voice rang out.
"Little girl, who are you? You're so young, wandering around out here. Do your parents know? And another thing: I can insult that useless guy, but you can't?" Li Hao said, rolling his eyes at the little girl.
"My name's Qu Feifei. Why can you insult him, big brother, but I can't?" The little girl was full of mischief and utterly charming.
"Because when I insult him, he can't do anything about it. He can't beat me, and if he gets nasty, I'll cut him down. You, on the other hand, have tiny arms and legs. He could grab you in an instant and spank you." So this little girl was Qu Feifei.
In the original story, she had lasted only two episodes before Fei Bin killed her. She was such a cute little girl. Li Hao would have to keep an eye on her and make sure she didn't fall victim to that bastard.
"Wow, he spanks people? He's so mean!" Qu Feifei made an adorable face.
But while the two of them chatted away happily, the mood of the other main character on the scene was not nearly so cheerful.
"You little bastard, you're asking for it!" Fei Bin was so furious his lungs nearly burst. He swung his palm straight at Li Hao.
"Oh, you're one to talk. I haven't even bothered to take the likes of you seriously." As soon as Li Hao finished speaking, he vanished from where he stood.
"Junior Sister, do you know this man? When did such a remarkable young talent appear in the martial world?" Yue Buqun asked Ning Zhongze beside him, his face full of disbelief.
"I've only just come down from the mountain. How could I know him?" Ning Zhongze's heart was in turmoil. Had Brother Qun noticed something? Why else would he ask her?
"Master, that man's name is Li Hao. He calls himself The Amorous Swordsman. At Huiyan Tower, he severed both of Lone Traveler Tian Boguang's arms with a single sword stroke. He's ruthless and perverse—not a good man." Linghu Chong hated Li Hao so much that he immediately tried to poison his master's opinion of him.
"Chong'er, Tian Boguang has ruined countless women and is a notorious rapist. Li Hao severed both his arms with a single strike. That proves he's righteous and decisive. How can you call him ruthless? You should learn from him in that regard. He's about your age, yet his cultivation is far beyond yours," Yue Buqun said sternly.
Before Gentleman Sword Yue Buqun obtained the Sunflower Manual, he had still been a gentleman in the way he conducted himself.
Damn it, you've all been fooled by his appearance. Even Yi Lin—she was clearly being threatened into becoming his concubine, so why does she look so happy in front of everyone else?
Abbess Dingyi, are you all blind, or is Li Hao just that good at hiding his true nature? I have to find a way to expose his hypocritical facade and then kill him.
As Li Hao toyed with Fei Bin, he suddenly sensed something was wrong. His heart gave a sudden jolt, and he immediately slapped Fei Bin, sending him flying into the wall, where he ended up hanging there.
Damn, that brat was planning to harm me! Li Hao turned around and saw Linghu Chong glaring at him with unmistakable malice.
Linghu Chong can't be allowed to live. Before I leave, I have to find a way to get rid of him. Every protagonist blessed with the fate of a comprehensive martial-world story is destined to become my enemy.
The sooner I eliminate one, the easier things will be for me in the future.
"Liu Zhengfeng refuses to repent and has colluded with the demonic cult, rejecting the Five Peaks Command Flag. Disciples of the Five Peaks, obey my command! Join forces to eliminate this demonic cult fiend!" Fei Bin rammed the Five Peaks Command Flag into the floor of the hall. The crowd watching immediately descended into chaos.
In an instant, eight figures flew into the hall from outside. Each one had deep, steady breaths and bulging temples. They were clearly skilled practitioners of internal cultivation.
"Brothers, there's no need to show any courtesy when dealing with a fiend. Let's attack together!"
"Yes, Senior Brother Ding!" The eight men drew their swords and surrounded Li Hao, attacking him all at once.
"Damn, the Song Shan Thirteen Protectors are ganging up on one young man! If you're shameless enough to do that, don't blame me for showing no mercy." Li Hao was enraged when he saw one of them thrusting a spear at Yi Lin.
Li Hao blurred into motion and appeared in front of Yi Lin in an instant. His iron sword left its sheath, and the Thirteen Sword Strikes of Life-Taking shot toward the attacker from an impossibly strange angle.
"Pfft!" Li Hao's sword moved at a strange angle, fast as lightning. Before the ambusher could react, the blade had pierced straight through his neck.
"Pah! Damn it, just because the tiger hasn't shown its claws, you think I'm a pushover?" Li Hao yanked his iron sword free. A jet of blood spurted from the wound in the man's neck.
Li Hao didn't dodge. He was splattered with blood.
"Who's next?" Li Hao pointed his sword diagonally at Fei Bin. Covered in blood, he looked like a god of war come to life.
Thump! The ambusher's corpse hit the ground. The scene fell utterly silent; you could have heard a pin drop.
"Fiend, how dare you kill my junior brother Zhang Cheng?" Fei Bin said through clenched teeth, a trickle of blood running from the corner of his mouth. Not everyone could withstand the slap Li Hao had dealt him earlier. Fei Bin had deep internal strength. If someone else had taken the blow, their head would probably have burst.
"The fiend is running rampant! Disciples of Song Shan, obey my command: kill every member of the Liu family!" Fei Bin said, each word dripping with menace.
"Fei Bin, you dare?" Liu Zhengfeng was on the verge of collapse.
Zhang Cheng, the Spear of the Ten Protectors, had failed to ambush his target and gotten himself killed instead.
His killer was right there in front of them. If they had the guts, they should go after him. What did the Liu family have to do with any of this?
The Song Shan disciples ignored Liu Zhengfeng's protests and thrust their swords at the members of the Liu family.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh! A flurry of sharp whistles filled the air. The Song Shan disciples carrying out the order clutched their throats and fell to the ground one after another.
"Heh. Liu Zhengfeng is a friend of Qu Yang, an elder of the Sun Moon Holy Cult. That makes him a friend of the Sun Moon Holy Cult—and a friend of mine, Invincible East." Before the voice had even faded, a red figure appeared, seated on the main beam of the hall.
"To kill my friend's family in front of me, Invincible East? I'd say you've all got a death wish."
When Liu Zhengfeng saw who had arrived, his vision went black. He nearly suffered a brain hemorrhage and went straight off to serve the Buddha.
On the day he was washing his hands in the Golden Basin, the leader of the Sun Moon Holy Cult had called him a friend. No matter how much he tried to explain, no one would believe him now. Invincible East had just confirmed with their own lips that he had colluded with the demonic cult.
[System, why didn't you play a notification for such a gorgeous woman? Are you down, or is there a bug?] Li Hao stared at Invincible East and swallowed.
[Host, are you an idiot? I only play notifications for people listed in the Gallery of Beauties. How am I supposed to give you a notification for someone like this, who's neither male nor female?] Hearing Li Hao accuse it of having a bug, the system flew into a rage and cursed him out.
Holy crap. Neither male nor female? Invincible East? Li Hao suddenly realized what that meant.
To practice the divine skill, one must first castrate oneself. Li Hao glanced at Invincible East's crotch, and a chill shot up his spine.
So the most ruthless figure in the martial world—Invincible East—had arrived.
