Ten years of dormancy: Starting as a martial arts master at the pinnacle

Qi Mingxiu was a court official in the Imperial Palace.

Lu Chuan, Deputy Commander of the Golden Guard and the Golden Sword Immortal.

One is a carefree and powerful being, the other is a renowned carefree individual.

When these two appeared, the eighty-odd assassins instantly became lambs to the slaughter.

Faced with a master of this caliber, no one knew better than these assassins just how terrifying the opponent's strength was.

Because in the missions they are assigned, facing highly skilled opponents is a common occurrence.

For those at Qi Mingxiu's level, they would gather several Grandmasters and Masters, preferably led by their own camp commanders.

There's also the possibility of taking down the opponent.

Even if all the assassins in their camp were gathered together, they might not be able to defeat the Golden Sword Immortal.

Not to mention they were just a sub-alliance within their own camp.

How can one contend with such a top-tier expert?

If it weren't for the White-Robed Alliance Leader letting Qi Yuantao off the hook earlier, Qi Mingxiu wouldn't have owed him a favor.

It's estimated that even the White-Robed Alliance Leader won't be able to leave.

The white-robed leader turned to look at his subordinates, his mind perfectly clear.

If all these dozens of assassins perish here, even if he returns to camp, his fate will definitely not be good.

He gritted his teeth inwardly.

The white-robed leader decided to leave after all.

Even if he didn't leave, they wouldn't stand a chance against the Golden Sword Immortal.

Not to mention they had a mad dog following behind them.

Qi Mingxiu has arrived, and Lu Chuan, the Golden Sword Immortal, has also arrived.

Under these circumstances, Chen Changfeng, who was following behind them, showed no intention of stopping.

Ironically, the fact that the assassins had stopped allowed him to move even faster.

In a few leaps and bounds, another dozen or so assassins died at Li Changqing's hands.

It was only at this point that Qi Yuantao and his group realized why the assassins had run away.

It turns out someone was chasing them.

"My goodness! These assassins were being hunted down?"

"Where did this ruthless person come from? How dare he be so arrogant in front of the commander of the Golden Guard?"

Qi Yuantao and his friends said they simply couldn't understand it.

Why did Li Changqing dare to go to such lengths?

"Chen Changfeng of the Beggars' Sect? I'll remember you!"

The white-robed leader gave Li Changqing a deep look, then turned and leaped up, about to leave.

He no longer cared about the assassins under his command.

Although Hong Fu Nu and Lord Qing had already experienced the ruthlessness of the White-Robed Alliance Leader.

But they never expected that even high-ranking officials like themselves would be abandoned.

"Who let you leave?"

A group of people blocked their way. Besides the assassins, there were also the Five Cities Garrison, the Imperial Guards, the Six Doors, and the deputy commander of the Golden Guard.

It is the rule to let the white-robed leader leave.

They had given the Duke of Qi's mansion face, so they had to protect them and help them leave. Otherwise, if they brought up the Duke of Qi's name again, who would take them seriously?

A person without integrity cannot stand.

The same applies to aristocratic families.

Everyone accepted this as fact, including Lu Chuan, the Golden-Clad Sword Immortal.

Li Changqing, however, seemed to completely disregard these tacit rules.

He was intercepted by an assassin earlier.

Now that those assassins have been abandoned, Li Changqing no longer needs to worry about them.

In any case, if nothing unexpected happens, these people will all be sent to the Golden Guard's prison.

Li Changqing's only goal is the White-Robed Alliance Leader.

What exactly were the assassins' motives for secretly infiltrating the Prince of Qin's residence?

Most assassins would certainly not know this.

Aside from Red Dust Woman and Lord Qing, only the White-Robed Alliance Leader might know the details.

Since the other party knew this, Li Changqing would never let him leave under any circumstances.

"Who is it?"

Seeing that someone was not giving him face, Qi Mingxiu took the initiative to block Li Changqing's way.

What he sensed from Li Changqing was merely the aura of a Grandmaster.

The other person looked to be in their early twenties.

Grandmasters of this age have limitless potential for the future.

"Young man, I don't care what grudges you have from the past. For the sake of my Duke Qi's mansion, how about we let it go for now?"

Qi Mingxiu's voice was not loud, but it was full of confidence.

Although Li Changqing had never heard of the Duke of Qi before, he could guess who he was from the other party's aura.

The Duke of Qi's mansion has a very strong foundation.

The situation has escalated so much, with so many people around...

The whole story will surely reach His Majesty the Emperor of Great Zhou's ears, and the princes will also find out.

Even under these circumstances, the Duke of Qi's mansion still dared to stop people and let the leader of the assassin organization go.

The White-Robed Leader is definitely one of the most central figures in this assassin organization.

He was stationed at General Changsheng's residence and oversaw the operation against the Prince of Qin's residence.

These two events alone are not something that the mid-level members of the assassin organization could decide.

The Emperor of Great Zhou and his princes could find out with a simple investigation.

Under these circumstances, would Qi Mingxiu still dare to let people go?

What exactly is the source of the Qi State Duke's mansion's confidence?

These thoughts flashed through Li Changqing's mind, and he also wondered whether he should stop.

But it's not easy to have this opportunity to practice with someone without worrying about going too far.

At the same time, Li Changqing also wanted to capture the White-Robed Alliance Leader to see if he could find out the truth.

Despite the slim chances, he still wanted to give it a try.

Having made up his mind, the man, his face turning pale, looked at Qi Mingxiu dismissively and said, "Who do you think you are?"

After these words were spoken, the scene fell silent.

The white-robed leader, who had already fled, was the first to react.

It looks like Qi Mingxiu and that mad dog Chen Changfeng are about to fight.

"beep!!!"

He whistled as he fled.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity; they must run!

The assassins received their orders and began to scatter and flee.

They were surrounded and had no way to escape.

But now.

Chen Changfeng, who was chasing them, clashed with Qi Mingxiu, who was blocking their way.

As the saying goes, when the snipe and the clam fight, the fisherman benefits.

Although they couldn't do anything to the two of them, they could escape this place of trouble!

Even though the assassins had long since disregarded life and death, they were not afraid of dying.

But it's better to live a miserable life than to die a good death.

If one can live, who would want to die?

Their survival instincts unleashed a level of strength far exceeding their usual abilities.

"Whoosh!"

"Whoosh!!"

The assassins vanished in a blur of black shadows.

At this moment, Qi Mingxiu's attention was entirely focused on Li Changqing.

As a powerful being in the Free and Unfettered Realm, he was determined to take action after being provoked like this.

Lu Chuan, the Golden Sword Immortal, glanced at the two of them but did not intervene.

But Lu Chuan would not allow those assassins to leave before his eyes.

"When did I say you could leave?"

The golden sword in his hand returned directly to Lu Chuan's hand without touching anything.

It gave the impression that Lu Chuan was controlling a flying sword.

"Golden light falls, a meteor sword song!!!"
