In Li Dong's home in Canghai City, a mysterious woman dressed in a classic chivalrous attire, with a thin sword at her waist, a thin pipe stuck diagonally in her waist, and a wine gourd in her hand was rummaging through the room, making a mess of the originally clean house.
"Aiya ~ Little brother's ability to hide wine is getting better and better. This time, there's no trace of it at all. This is going to be a headache…" The mysterious woman gently blew out a smoke ring. She looked a little troubled, but she was still unwilling to give up. She walked into the master bedroom and continued to search.
When she passed by the window and saw the neat and luxurious villas in the distance, she suddenly slapped her head and shouted,"Ya! I almost forgot about the important matter…"
The mysterious woman's ancient robe fluttered and turned into a gentle breeze before disappearing from where she was.
At this moment, a group of murderous uninvited guests were welcoming the villas in the rich family area. Xu Rong of Villa No. 24 locked all the doors and windows and returned to his bedroom.
Yang Zilan fell into a deep sleep on the bed. Her body was already weak due to her injuries. Being able to stay awake for eight hours a day was already her limit.
Xu Rong stood at the door with his arms crossed and stared at the living room downstairs. Suddenly, all the lights in the villa went out, and the house fell into darkness. Then, there were very subtle sounds coming from downstairs and the roof.
Killing intent surged from all directions!
At this moment, two pitch-black figures rushed over from the right corridor. They were extremely fast but did not make a sound. At the same time, on the left stairs, directly below the guardrail of the second-floor corridor, above Xu Rong's head, pitch-black figures appeared one after another.
The attacks were launched almost at the same time. It could be said that it was an all-round attack with no blind spots. The only way out was the bedroom. Even the top assassins in the world could only retreat and wait for reinforcements in such a situation. However, Xu Rong did not retreat but advanced instead. Her graceful figure turned into a silver phantom. She jumped high into the air, and her white jade-like hands turned into claws. She quickly and accurately grabbed the neck of the figure above her head. With a gentle twist, a crack was heard. Then, she gently raised her jade-like foot and kicked the corpse to the side. The enemy on the right was instantly blocked by the corpse. One of them could not dodge in time and was sent flying by the corpse of his companion.
Although the other person avoided it, he lost the best opportunity to attack. Xu Rong, who had caught up with him, grabbed his neck and threw him behind her. With a few sharp sounds, the killer instantly lost the strength to struggle and fell to the floor without any signs of life.
At this moment, Xu Rong took advantage of the assassin blocking the hidden weapon and jumped up on the smooth railing to quickly run towards the other assassins.
"Kill Thirteen, Kill Fourteen, go in and kill that girl. The rest of you, stall this woman!”The leader commanded in a low voice.
However, in the next second, Xu Rong's speed suddenly increased, at least ten times faster than before. In an instant, he passed by the two people who climbed up from the guardrail, the three people on the road, and the person who gave the order. The leader turned around in disbelief and looked at the graceful figure behind him. Then, he rolled his eyes and fell to the ground. Blood flowed everywhere from his neck like a fountain.
At some point in time, Xu Rong's right hand was holding a short dagger dripping with blood. Blood dripped onto the ground, and her silver-white hair danced in the air. The long yellow scarf still covered the woman's curvaceous and exquisite body. Even her cold and indifferent beautiful face did not change at all.
Sha Shisan and Sha Shisi did not enter the bedroom because they knew that no matter who acted rashly, they would become the next target of this demoness.
Suddenly, an explosion and a few screams came from the direction of the bedroom, followed by the sound of glass shattering. Xu Rong snorted coldly. The electric shock trap she had set up had been broken, so she lifted the long towel that wrapped around her beautiful body. However, without giving anyone a chance to appreciate it, a golden light rose from her body, releasing a holy but not dazzling brilliance. In the light, the lace underwear turned into a golden silk soft armor, and a light armor with golden patterns and white background was attached to it. Under the light lace skirt was a pair of platinum boots.
Xu Rong put away his dagger and changed it to a three-foot-long steel sword. He rushed into the room in a flash. His body spun like a platinum top, and with a roundhouse slash, he instantly killed the four men in black who had broken through the window.
Violet Orchid was still sleeping soundly on the bed, not at all awakened by the huge commotion outside.
At this time, the assassins behind them also followed into the room. Some people jumped into the bedroom window and surrounded Xu Rong and Violet Orchid.
The current situation was quite bad. Xu Rong could not help but start to complain about some people. He had clearly agreed to come, but until now, there was not a single person.
Xu Rong blew a whistle with two fingers on his lips and shouted softly,"Flying Lightning!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a golden bolt of lightning dashed into the room, killing three assassins on the spot and sending them flying. The golden bolt of lightning rushed past the assassins and headed straight for Xu Rong. Xu Rong grabbed Violet Orchid and jumped onto the bolt of lightning, rushing towards the broken window. Due to his extreme speed, he knocked away two assassins by the window.
It landed on the grass in the back garden of the villa, and the golden lightning revealed its true appearance. It was a majestic, tall and mighty yellow-maned horse. Xu Rong stood against the horse and looked down arrogantly at the killers who were gradually surrounding him.
"It's really too slow!" Xu Rong said coldly.
As soon as he finished speaking, a thick fog rose in the garden, and the killers who were surrounding them were drowned in the fog. Then, a slightly drowsy woman's voice sounded from the fog,"Zhao Keman, Hu Ying, Wu Gou, Shuang Xueming. The silver saddle shines on the white horse, and the wind is like a meteor…"
As the sword lights flashed, the bloody blood in the fog dyed the fog red.
"Kill a person every ten steps, leave no trace for a thousand miles. "After the matter is done, I will leave with my clothes and hide deep in my name…" As the woman chanted word by word, she was accompanied by screams that rose and fell.
"When I am idle, I drink at Xinling.
Prepare to roast meat to eat Zhu Hai, holding a cup to persuade Hou Ying.
Three cups of wine, spit out the promise, the five mountains fall to the light.
Dazzled and hot, the mood is always bright.
Rescue Zhao with a golden hammer, Handan first shocked.
Qianqiu two strong men, bright and bright Daliang City.
Even if he died, he would not be ashamed of the heroes of the world.
Who can write your name, white head Taixuan Sutra.”
The sword light in the fog was like lightning in the thunderclouds. It streaked across the sky in a stunning arc, as if there were hundreds of swift and elegant figures dancing in the clouds.
After the chivalrous man finished chanting, the clouds began to slowly disperse. In the morning, he saw a woman dressed in an ancient chivalrous warrior's uniform. Her clothes were half-open, revealing her breasts. She had a pipe on her waist, and she was holding a wine gourd. She stood there alone and drank wine. The entire back garden was filled with the corpses of the killers. Not a single one was left alive.
"Qinglian, at least leave someone alive.”Xu Rong complained to her as if he had a headache.
" Ahaha, I'm sorry, I'm so sorry. I was in the mood of drinking and forgot everything else…" However, the woman called Qinglian did not look guilty at all.
Clap, clap, clap…Suddenly, a round of applause rang out. A black-clothed man barged into the back garden. He was two meters tall, and his muscular body tightened his black skin-tight clothes tightly. His sturdy muscles were filled with explosive power, and his aura was as imposing as a brown bear.
This person looked very strong!
" Impressive. With just two people, they managed to wipe out half of the elites of the West Mist Assassination Church. China is indeed full of crouching tigers and hidden dragons…" Although this person had a strong foreign accent, he spoke every word in Chinese accurately.
"Yo, General Xu, look, there's one alive, and it looks like he's the leader.”Li Qinglian smiled and pointed at the leader of the assassins.
However, Xu Rong, who was not in the mood to care about this, asked coldly,"You came alone?"
"Aiya, General Xu, you also know that I have always been a loner. Naturally, I came alone and left alone.”
Li Qinglian waved her hand helplessly and continued,"Moreover, you know that unless Little Brother Li personally gives the order, those guys will be like young ladies in the boudoir and will definitely not take half a step out of the house.”
"Hey, do you think I'm air?”The foreign man who was as muscular as Arnold Schwarzenegger roared.
Xu Rong and Li Qinglian glanced at him and ignored him." My lord has entrusted Violet Orchid to me to go to the Other World alone. I'm worried about her safety, so I plan to gather my lord's old subordinates in his name.”
"Hehe, General Xu, you're overstepping your boundaries ~ The tenth and twenty-fifth rule of the Righteous Qi Alliance states: After the disciples of the alliance found the reincarnation of the alliance leader, they were not allowed to interfere with the life of the alliance leader. Those who violated the order would be suspended, demoted, or expelled according to the severity of the case. Unless little brother Li Dong takes the initiative to look for us, we can only stand by and watch even if his bones are ground to ashes.”
Xu Rong knew the rules of the Righteous Alliance better than anyone else, but there were always things in this world that could surpass and break the established rules!
"I know the rules set by the alliance leader, but the lord has already woken up!”Xu Rong argued.
" No, no. We don't have the right to determine whether or not Little Brother Li's three souls have fully awakened. It's the reaction of the Heavenly Prison…"
The leader of the assassins saw that the two of them were chatting on their own and did not take him seriously at all. He was so angry that he let out a strange roar and pounced over fiercely."I'm going to tear the two of you into pieces!”
" Ah, I'm sorry, I almost forgot about you. It's better to put you away first. Otherwise, you'll disturb the neighbors..." Li Qinglian pointed her wine gourd at the leader of the assassins.
At this moment, a figure descended from the sky. With a loud bang, the ground cracked layer by layer, and soil, grass, and large amounts of flesh and blood flew everywhere.
A roguish male voice came from the dust."Hehe, safe landing…"
Hearing this voice, Li Qinglian put away the wine gourd and said in surprise,"Aiyaya ~ Speaking of the devil, the devil has arrived. I just didn't expect that before the Heavenly Prison opened, you, the great devil, would arrive first.”
Xu Rong also frowned with a serious expression. The man in the clouds waved his right hand and the smoke disappeared in an instant. This person was nine feet tall and had a bear's back. He had flat short hair and was dressed in a punk outfit with holes in it. He had simple facial features, but there was a hint of ruffian aura, as if he was a delinquent youth who had just been released from a labor camp.
"Yo ~ Big Sister Green Lotus is here too. I heard from Brother Quan that Teacher had woken up, so I immediately rushed over.”The man jumped out of the pit, not caring about his clothes and shoes that were stained red with blood.
"Weren't you arrested by the magistrate six years ago? You…did you break out of prison?" Qing Lian asked speechlessly.
The man just smiled shyly, obviously unwilling to answer Li Qinglian's question directly.
"Where's Quan Shancai? He still hasn't come?" Xu Rong directly ignored the topic of the two people and asked.
"Brother Quan? I'm not sure. Don't worry about him. Teacher, is there anyone else?”The man asked impatiently.
Li Qinglian shook the wine pot and said with a smile,"Brother Er 'Lai still only has eyes for Little Brother Li as usual. It's a pity that he isn't here. I heard from General Xu that he seems to have gone on a long journey.”
"What? If not, then I'll go back." Er 'Lai immediately looked dejected.
"Come back!" Xu Rong shouted coldly.
"Oh!" Er 'Lai responded and obediently turned around.
Xu Rong's expression softened slightly as he said calmly,"The lord has encountered some small trouble, and I can't get away. At this time, you should stay.”
"What? Trouble? Teacher is in trouble? That was great! There's going to be another fight!" Er 'Lai immediately became excited.
The corner of Xu Rong's mouth twitched slightly. He covered his forehead and muttered to himself," That's why I don't want this guy to come over…"
"Alright, alright, let's get down to business. General Xu, since you've summoned us, we can't just go back like this. What do you want us to do?”Li Qinglian returned to the topic.
"…Let's go back to the house first.”
"Then…these corpses?" Li Qinglian pointed at the corpses around her.
"It's fine. Someone will handle it."
Xu Rong said nonchalantly, as if it was not a pile of corpses but a pile of trash. He carried Yang Zilan back into the house. Since the windows of the master bedroom were broken and the walls were damaged, he moved Zi Lan to another bedroom.
Walking down slowly from the second floor, Xu Rong had already changed back into his home clothes. Looking at the two people sitting on the sofa, Xu Rong said in a cold tone that was almost commanding,"I hope that you can help me secretly 'supervise' my lord.”
"Oh? Isn't General Xu going there personally? Your Xu family is the 'supervisory censor' appointed by the alliance leader 1,700 years ago. Moreover, you have personally protected Little Brother Li for many years and have won his trust. You are much more suitable than the two of us.”Li Qinglian asked in surprise.
Xu Rong shook his head slowly." The Lord has ordered me to protect Sister Violet Orchid. It is my duty to protect her. As a soldier, if I dare to disobey the Lord's orders, I will lose the right to protect her..."
"Aiyaya ~ This is really reliable.”Although Li Qinglian's tone was teasing, there was no sarcasm in it. There was even some admiration in it. She continued,"Then does Xu Rong know where Little Brother Li went? He doesn't seem to be in the human world anymore, and our perception abilities are quite ordinary. Rather than making us search aimlessly, we might as well wait for little brother to come back…"
"The Mountain and Sea Realm's Midland Continent's Ancient Desolate Realm is located in the eastern part of Mount Qingqiu and the central part of the Eternal Sun Forest," Xu Rong explained."The location of the divination is Sky 193, Earth 72, Man 554…."
Seeing this, Li Qinglian and Er 'Lai were both shocked. Qinglian asked in surprise,"How did you get such precise spatial coordinates?”
Xu Rong did not answer. Instead, he took out an eight-trigram and placed it on the coffee table in front of him.
When Li Qinglian saw this item, she was shocked again."Good heavens, the Innate Eight Trigrams Disk! Hey, hey, hey, I heard that this was a primordial spiritual treasure given to the Xu family by the sixty-fourth Alliance Master, Liu Xuande, during the Eastern Han Dynasty. The old master of the Xu family is really generous to let you carry it with you. But even if you have this high-grade magical treasure, you still need a reference point to determine the location of the other plane…Wait! Don't tell me you installed Si Xiangzhu, the location-finding device in the Eight Trigrams Disk, on Little Brother Li?”
Xu Rong still didn't reply. He just nodded silently.
"That's not right! With Little Brother Li's suspicious and cautious personality, no matter how much he trusts you, he won't allow you to control his position at any time.”Li Qinglian looked at Xu Rong in disbelief and almost choked her to death."Unless the two of you have an extraordinary relationship and have a dirty py deal!”
Xu Rong, who had a cold temperament, blushed when he heard such a dirty sentence. A clear memory flashed in his mind:
It was the same hot summer as today. In a quiet and deserted park, a tall young girl quietly watched the injured and unconscious youth. Her cold eyes gradually became gentle. She gently stroked the youth's scarred face, and their shadows overlapped.
When she recalled this scene, the warmth and breath of that moment seemed to still remain at the corner of her mouth. Her cold face could not help but show a little gentleness of a young girl.
Xu Rong's face was slightly red as he spat,"Bah, you're the dirty one!"
"Oh, oh, oh! Was that a pure transaction?”
Li Qinglian looked at Xu Rong, who was acting like a little girl, and was secretly surprised."There's definitely an affair here!"
She could not help but feel the fire of gossip burning in her heart. She hugged Xu Rong's shoulder and asked with a flattering expression,"Tell me the details ~ Who took the initiative? Who was passive? How many moves did he use? What TV? Come on, we've known each other for so many years, what's there that can't be said? I swear on Er 'Lai's character that I won't tell anyone.”
Xu Rong immediately returned to his original cold appearance."Hmph, it's a pity that there's nothing like what you imagined. I have nothing to say.”
Doing such a thing to an unconscious lord, even if he was tortured, he could not speak of it, especially those bored fellows in the Righteous Alliance. If they found out, then, then it would probably be recorded in history…
"I also want to know about things related to Teacher!”Er 'Lai continued.
"Get lost!" Xu Rong shouted and kicked the two of them out of the room.
The two of them rolled in the air like balls. Er 'Lai looked at the tightly shut door speechlessly and muttered,"I keep feeling that Sister Rong is a little impatient."
"Hmph, how can she not be anxious?" Li Qinglian patted the dust off her body and stood up.
"After so many years, the Xu family's ancestors are almost at the end of their days. If we want to continue the family's life, glory, and memories, we must obtain an opportunity to soar again. And this opportunity can only be the Nine Provinces Meeting that the Great Zhou Emperor called upon the heroes of the world to hold thousands of years ago! As long as Little Brother Li won the Nine Cauldrons of King Yu, his subordinates and retainers would be able to receive the protection of the Nine Cauldrons of King Yu again. In this way, the Xu family would at least be guaranteed to not die out. However, in order to restore the family's prosperity from decline, the Xu family's descendants had to be able to be ranked as one of the three talents: The General Ranking, the Sage Ranking, and the Heroic Ranking. But this kind of thing is easier said than done ~"
"Oh, oh! I remember my teacher said that some talented people gathered together to form a force. As long as the monarch of the force could obtain one of the nine cauldrons of King Yu, he would be able to leave his name on the Hegemon List, and the family members of the force would be blessed.”
Li Qinglian took out a pipe and took a puff." Yes, General Xu and I are the same. We have a part of our ancestors 'memories and abilities since we can remember. Our family also has a very strong influence and social status in the secular world. It can be said that we have stood at the top of countless people since we were born. However, this blessing has a time limit. General Xu's family has already begun to decline. I'm afraid that the next generation will not be able to do it at all. That's why we are so anxious..."
"Sigh, I don't really understand. I think these things don't matter.”Er 'Lai scratched his head in a daze. He was the one who hated thinking about complicated problems the most.
" Hehe, Brother Er 'Lai has participated in the Investiture of the Gods before, so of course, he's not interested in things like inheritance. However, Xu Rong cares about many things. Other than the rise and fall of the family, the most important thing is that she has been with Little Brother Li for so many years, and she has hidden it deep in her heart..." Li Qinglian deliberately dragged out her voice, as if she was afraid that the person in the room could not hear her.
Suddenly, a disc-like object flew out of the room. Li Qinglian retreated backward, and at the same time, she removed the force of the hidden weapon and grabbed it firmly in her hand.
It was the Innate Eight Trigrams Disk!
Knowing that she could not stay here for long, Li Qinglian quickly grabbed Er 'Lai's collar and ran towards the door while shouting,"General Xu, don't worry. We'll take good care of Little Brother Li Dong for you. We won't let him go around fooling around ~"
