"Splurt! Splurt!"

"Ahhh!"

"My arm, my leg, ahh!!"

As the icy blade slashed through Wang Long's right leg, an agonized scream rang out.

He stared in horror at his severed arm and right leg, his face covered in cold sweat and filled with terror as he roared in despair.

"The spinning blade coils around the body, circling in a slash to seal the feet."

Cao Fengqi looked at him coldly and said slowly, "This move is called Sealing Blade Slash."

At that moment, a deathly silence fell over the area for thousands of meters around, broken only by Wang Long's screams.

The thousands gathered there stared at the scene, their faces filled with disbelief and horror.

Only a dozen or so seconds had passed from the moment Cao Fengqi nocked his arrow to the end of the fight.

Fast. Too fast.

It had happened so quickly that, looking at the outcome, they felt dazed and could hardly believe it.

Wang Long of the Wang Family, a long-established powerful family in Liangmin County, had been utterly unable to resist Cao Fengqi, who had made a name for himself at a young age.

From the moment the arrow struck him to the swift severing of his arm and leg after the two closed in, it had all happened in an instant.

It was a crushing defeat brought about by the difference in strength.

The result was worlds apart from what everyone had imagined.

"Hiss, this... Cao Fengqi has powerful techniques too, and his physique is also extremely high."

"Just a powerful family? Indeed, just a powerful family. At eighteen, he easily took two limbs from Wang Long, an expert from a powerful family. He's too strong!"

Someone came to his senses and couldn't help shouting under his breath!

"No, no, no, this is impossible, impossible!!"

At that moment, Wang Dahai and the three members of the Wu Family watched the scene, their heads buzzing as they were left utterly dumbfounded.

Wang Dahai looked at his father's miserable state, gritting his teeth in disbelief as his whole body trembled!

"Thud!"

Cao Fengqi planted his saber in the ground and slowly took out his bow and arrows, fixing his gaze on Wang Dahai. "Wang Dahai, did you ever imagine it would end like this?"

Wang Dahai opened his mouth and saw two arrows aimed at him.

"No, don't..."

"Whoosh! Whoosh!"

As he spoke, terror and cowardice made him turn to flee.

But the two arrows shot into his leg bones, piercing straight through.

Their tremendous force sent him crashing to the ground.

The onlookers around him hurriedly scrambled out of the way in horror!

"Ah!"

"Don't kill me, don't kill me."

Both of Wang Dahai's legs had been crippled, and he wailed and screamed in terror!

"What an idiot."

Cao Fengqi shook his head disdainfully, his sharp gaze sweeping over the crowd.

"Gulp!"

Feeling his gaze and the powerful, keen edge radiating from him, some people swallowed and looked away, not daring to meet his eyes.

Some who had mocked Cao Fengqi just moments ago lowered their heads, their hearts filled with dread.

Faced with the ferocious Cao Fengqi, they were afraid, even though he was young.

"Heh!"

Cao Fengqi looked at some of them and gave a mocking smile.

He slowly drew three more arrows and nocked them.

"Twang!"

The next second, he drew the bow to its full extent and aimed it at Ma Jiuxing in the distance!

"Get down and-"

Cao Fengqi stared at him coldly and commanded, "Kneel!"

"You... I..."

Ma Jiuxing was shocked to see Cao Fengqi suddenly aim his arrows at him.

Damn it! Damn it!

This brat actually wants to deal with me. Didn't I just say a few words?!

Fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead. Ma Jiuxing considered himself strong, but he also knew clearly that he was weaker than Wang Long.

Wang Long had nearly been killed by this young man before him. If he turned his attention to Ma Jiuxing and attacked him, then-

Damn it, how did such a monstrous young man suddenly appear in Liangmin County? Who could have seen this coming?!

"Cao Fengqi, I, Ma Jiuxing, kneel to heaven, earth, and my parents..."

Ma Jiuxing took a deep breath, his expression darkening as he shouted.

"Thump."

Just when everyone thought he was going to stand his ground, he dropped to his knees on the spot under their dumbfounded gazes.

"I am also willing to kneel to someone whose strength is so great that I am utterly convinced."

Ma Jiuxing wore a righteous expression as he declared, "At eighteen, your spirit pierces the rainbow; with one saber and one arrow, you defeat a mighty hero. In techniques, no one in Liangmin County surpasses you. I am utterly convinced."

"????"

"????"

Everyone was stunned by his words, tilting their heads with utterly baffled expressions.

What the fuck?

Ma Jiuxing was, after all, a renowned member of a powerful family in Liangmin County.

He was also, after all, one of the top hundred experts in Liangmin County today.

Uh, what was this?

But when they looked at Cao Fengqi, his brilliance and outstanding talent on full display, a saying came to mind.

A wise man knows when to yield.

As expected of someone who had become a member of a powerful family: his ability to read the situation was far beyond everyone else's.

Cao Fengqi paused as he looked at Ma Jiuxing.

"Heh, kicking you really is like kicking a ball of cotton."

He chuckled and put away his bow and arrows.

Seeing that, Ma Jiuxing's heart settled back down from his throat. He cupped his hands at Cao Fengqi. "Congratulations to the Cao Family on becoming a powerful family, and congratulations to you too, Brother Cao Fengqi, on becoming Liangmin County's youngest expert from a powerful family. Heroes truly emerge from the young!"

The people around them ignored his flattery, but their expressions still shifted slightly.

Yes, the Cao Family was now undoubtedly a powerful family.

A powerful family established by an eighteen-year-old youth!

"Dad, collect the spoils from Wang Long."

Cao Fengqi gave him a casual glance and didn't bother with him, turning back to say a few words to his father.

"Ah, oh, oh, all right! All right, all right!"

The dumbstruck Cao Jiancheng finally came to his senses. His face flushed red with excitement as he walked toward Wang Long.

Off to the side, Liu Xiuxiu held Dabao in an excited embrace, tears of joy in her eyes.

Liu Chunying gazed at her brother-in-law with burning eyes.

The scene just now had been etched deeply into her mind and refused to fade.

From now on, the Cao Family would be one of Liangmin County's top powerful families!

"Wu Qianqian, Wu Family!"

Cao Fengqi now turned his gaze to Wu Qianqian and her parents, their faces deathly pale.

"Thump!"

"Fengqi, Fengqi, we're sorry, we're sorry. We were in the wrong today."

Hearing his words and seeing the miserable state of Wang Dahai and his father, Wu Bing was so frightened that he dropped to his knees, trembling as he begged for mercy.

"Heh, take your fine son-in-law and his father away. Don't let them die."

Cao Fengqi gave a mocking smile and ordered them to leave.

He did not attack Wu Qianqian or her parents.

After this, anyone could imagine what rumors the Wu Family would face.

Sometimes, destroying their hearts was more painful than killing them.

The thousands of people around them also turned their gazes on the three members of the Wu Family.

Some of those near them even backed away.

Everyone knew that all of this had started because of Wu Qianqian.

It was all because Cao Fengqi of the Cao Family had once called her a jinx.

Now, it had been thoroughly confirmed.

Wu Qianqian was the first person in Liangmin County to single-handedly jinx a powerful family to death.

Feeling the gazes around her and looking at the dazzling Cao Fengqi, Wu Qianqian's mind went blank.

Regret, anger, unwillingness, fear... she felt it all.
