Records of Mysterious Things in the Southern Dynasties

Chapter 260: Eradicating Evil
Xiao Zhengde's head fell to the ground, and his soul escaped from his body. He tried to escape, but Ren Yuan was about to kill him with his sword, when he saw countless vengeful spirits from heaven and earth rushing in and surrounding him. They were the vengeful spirits that had been killed by Xiao Zhengde for many years. They had been following him and finally waited for this opportunity to avenge themselves.
Xiao Zhengde's soul was terrified, stared at by thousands of hateful eyes, and could not move at all.

They rushed forward and tore his three souls, seven spirits and six parts of his body into pieces, leaving no residue at all.

Ren Yuan turned to Xiao Zhengze who was standing beside him. Just a cold glance at him was enough to frighten the once arrogant Marquis of Leshan so much that his face turned pale and his legs went weak.

Xiao Zhengze wanted to turn around and run away, but found that his feet seemed to be nailed to the ground and he could not move at all.

He actually fell to his knees on the ground, kowtowed and begged for mercy with tears and snot: "Please spare me, I won't dare to do it again..."

"Why wouldn't you dare? You just know that you are going to die." Ren Yuan sneered and tore off his protective jade talisman.

At this moment, Xue Dingnan's roar came from a distance: "Spare their lives! The emperor wants to see them!"

Xiao Zhengze was overjoyed when he heard this. He immediately changed his expression and shouted at Ren Yuan: "Boy, did you hear me? Put the knife away!"

"I won't." But he let Yuan Ping say calmly, and then he chopped Huashan with a knife and chopped it towards his head!
"Stop!" Xue Dingnan became furious when he saw this. His yang spirit came out of his body and a golden light flashed in front of Ren Yuan. He swung his fist to knock him away.

Unexpectedly, a golden light appeared in front of him. The fifth-dimensional Yang Shen blocked Xue Dingnan's Yang Shen and punched him. The two fists collided, and the golden light exploded. The sky and the earth darkened! The people around him were unstable and fell to the ground.

Ren Yuan behind the Fifth Dimension was not affected at all. He chopped down heavily with his sword, splitting Xiao Zhengze from the top of his head to his buttocks into two. Blood and internal organs were scattered all over the ground...

Then, with a twist of the evil-killing blade, the soul will be shattered.

"..." Xue Dingnan's pupils shrank when he saw this, and he knew that he could never climb the high branch of King Linchuan again.

But even if he was furious, he would not attack Diwu Wei and Ren Yuan in public. Otherwise, he would not be able to survive in the Gou Chen Division.

Xue Dingnan put out the fire here, but Xiao Hong came rushing over with sparks flying.

He witnessed with his own eyes his third son being chopped into six pieces and his fourth son being split in half. He was so angry that he rushed towards Ren Yuan with a roar.

"I'm going to cut you into pieces!"

The fifth dimension wanted to stand in front of Ren Yuan, but was stopped by Xue Dingnan.

Ren Yuan was not afraid at all. He held the Evil-Slaying Blade in one hand and the Nanming Fire Talisman in the other, ready to fight Xiao Hong.

A Yao also rushed to his side, ready to join forces with him to fight the enemy.

There was a flash of yellow light before his eyes, and the leader of Zhiming Guard, Tan Tai Po Lu, stood in front of him.

The Nine Acupoints of Tan Tai Po Lu, who was in his prime and fought hard to get to the top, cannot be compared with the Nine Acupoints of Xiao Hong, who was pampered and had a sickly life.

Even though he exerted his full strength due to the pain of losing his son, Tan Tai Po Lu still took his moves one by one, without moving at all, and even had time to say, "Our General Chen has something to say to the prince."

Xiao Hong took two steps back, looked around with bloodshot eyes, and saw Chen Qianzhi appear on the scene at some point.

"Chen Qingzhi, your people are so bold." Xiao Hong stared at Chen Qingzhi with a face full of resentment, and said in a hissing voice: "How dare you kill my two sons? I swear I will not be a human being if I don't avenge this!"

"Your Majesty, they are just following orders." Chen Qingzhi said calmly, "All responsibilities will be borne by the Gou Chen Division."

"What do you mean by imperial decree? They forged it!" Xiao Hong angrily shook the imperial edict in his hand and threw it to Chen Qingzhi fiercely, saying, "Open your dog eyes and see, the emperor wants to arrest my son and bring him to the emperor to be punished!" "Really? That's a pity." Chen Qingzhi took a look at the imperial edict and said apologetically, "But the edict we received before was to execute the two marquises. Before receiving the new edict, we can only execute the first one."

"Don't give me that! Xue Dingnan has already seen the imperial edict!" Xiao Hong grabbed Xue Dingnan and roared, "Tell me, is it true?"

"Yes..." Xue Dingnan nodded with difficulty.

"Did you tell them to stop?" Xiao Hong asked loudly, "But they ignored you and chopped off my son's head?!"

"Yes." Xue Dingnan's face turned red with embarrassment.

"Did you hear it?" Chen Qianzhi asked the fifth dimension.

"Replying to General Chen, I heard it." The Fifth Dimension replied respectfully.

"Then why don't you obey the Lord's orders?" Chen Qingzhi asked again.

"But the Lord didn't say it was an imperial decree, so I thought it was his own will." The Fifth Dimension replied, "I am guilty, but I just disobeyed the Lord's order. I didn't do it on purpose, and I dare not disobey the imperial decree."

"Didn't you say it was an imperial edict?" Chen Qingzhi asked Xue Dingnan again.

"I didn't have time to tell you." Xue Dingnan nodded, wishing he could find a crack in the ground to crawl into. After Chen Shuai and Tan Tai Po Lu appeared, he looked like a clown.

"So the communication is still not timely." Chen Qingzhi sighed and said to Xiao Hong: "If the prince blames our Gou Chen Division, just complain to the emperor."

"Of course I will sue the emperor!" Xiao Hong's three corpses jumped up and down, smoke coming out of his seven orifices. He pointed at Diwu Wei, Ren Yuan and others and said, "I will definitely avenge you. Clean your necks and wait for me!"

"Your Highness, if you have any worries, just come to me. Don't make things difficult for the people below." Chen Qingzhi said, glancing coldly at Xiao Hong's other sons and said, "Otherwise, when will the cycle of revenge end?"

All of these people, including Xiao Hong himself, are not easy to deal with. Each of them has black material in the Gou Chen Division. If Chen Qingzhi really wants to fight him to the death, the funeral of the Linchuan Palace will have to go on.

"Hmph, let's wait and see!" Xiao Hong snorted angrily and walked away.

Xiao Zhengyi collected the body of the fourth brother and left with his men.

Only the people from the Gou Chen Division were left in the field. Chen Qingzhi glanced at the Lingguang Guards who all had different expressions on their faces and said calmly, "What's the matter? Let's talk about it when we get back."

After saying that, he and Tan Tai Po Lu returned to Qilin City first.

Now only Lingguangwei's people were left, and the atmosphere was inevitably awkward.

"Didn't you say you were injured?" After a while, Xue Dingnan broke the silence and said to Diwu Wei with a lot of resentment: "You are so scheming!"

Although he didn't use his full strength in that punch just now, it was still not something that the seriously injured Eight Aperture Yang Shen could withstand.

"Yes, I was injured, how did I get cured?" The Fifth Dimension was also confused and looked to Ren Yuan for help.

"I don't know either." Ren Yuan was also confused. He clearly remembered that Sansheng Beast said that his Yang Shen was seriously injured. How come he was fine after getting off the boat?
"Just play me one by one!" Xue Dingnan gritted his teeth, pushed off the ground with his feet, soared into the sky, and flew to an unknown place.
