From slave trader to the Immortal Lord of Ten Thousand Laws

A... a pervert?!

Upon hearing this, Jiang She's eyelids twitched, but he did not refute it. Instead, he went straight to the point and said:

"Madam Xu, you've misunderstood. This woman is an assassin sent by the Zhao family, known in the martial arts world as 'The Shadow Among Flowers.'"

"We're here to kill you, Madam Xu!"

Ok?

Are they here to kill me?!

Upon hearing this, Madam Xu's almond-shaped eyes widened, and she stood there dumbfounded, staring at the woman on the ground who was only covered by a robe.

Upon hearing the words "Shade Among Flowers," Madam Xu couldn't help but think of "Calming the Waves."

The Dingfengbo Sect has strict rules and acts in secrecy. Everyone hides their true identity and does not show their face to others.

Although she had hundreds of fellow disciples, she had met and interacted with almost none of them.

Let's not talk about appearance.

Even their voices and physical appearances are often disguised.

The woman on the ground...

Her black hair was disheveled, her skin was fair, and half of her face was visible under her hat, revealing a clear jawline; she was a beauty.

But she didn't recognize this beauty.

However, she had indeed heard of the name Huajianyin.

No.

Not just heard of it, it's absolutely legendary!

Rumors circulated among the sect that this woman was ruthless and cunning, especially skilled at seducing people with her beauty. Whenever she made a move, regardless of whether the target was male or female, the victim would die with their clothes barely covering them.

Even more horrifying is...

Rumor has it that she is adept at using "honey magic" to conceal drugs and weapons, and in battle, she can strike unexpectedly, killing those who are hit instantly.

Those who shared the same sect were terrified whenever "Huajian Yin" was mentioned, and avoided it at all costs.

Madam Xu pursed her lips.

She kills only for a mission; she does whatever her employer tells her to do, killing with a single, clean, and efficient move.

But this shade among the flowers...

But it seems... they take pleasure in torture and murder.

This is completely different from her belief in "murder," it's an extreme perversion, but why would she want to kill me?

Madam Xu was somewhat puzzled.

"Why would she kill me? I didn't offend her."

Jiang She shook his head, feigning ignorance, and lied, "How would I know?"

"This morning, I saw this woman acting suspiciously, asking everyone she met who Xu Lian was. I thought she was a close relative of Madam Xu, so I sent someone to summon you here. But I never imagined... this woman had come to kill you, Madam Xu!"

"Wow! That's really strange!"

Xu Lian frowned, still somewhat confused.

"Tap tap tap—"

Suddenly, footsteps could be heard in the distance.

The craftsmen have finished their work.

Jiang She glanced at the alley entrance and said, "Madam Xu, this is not a place to stay for long. Let's move somewhere else first."

Xu Lian nodded, picked up Liu Yin, whose back was bare, and ran away in a flash.

...

...

The night was half over, and midnight had arrived.

Inside the dilapidated temple.

One man and two women climbed over the low courtyard wall.

The men led the charge, scaling the low wall first, while the women carried a beautiful woman on their backs. The woman was only wearing a black robe on her upper body, with nothing underneath, and she had already been knocked unconscious.

"tread--!"

The man jumped down.

The soap boots made a soft sound as they stepped on the weeds.

By the dim moonlight, Jiang She glanced at the dilapidated temple.

Cobwebs covered the corners of the walls, the temple was deserted, and in the main hall, not only were there no people, but even the traces of rats and ants were hard to find.

But Jiang She was deeply moved after reading it.

When his physical body first crossed over into this world, the first time he opened his eyes was in this dilapidated temple. Later, when he imprisoned Ma Laosi and refined medicine for himself, he also chose to settle in this dilapidated temple.

now....

Unexpectedly, I visited again.

"Come in."

Jiang She called out softly and stepped into the hall first. His footsteps sounded particularly abrupt in the empty hall.

Madam Xu followed closely behind, her back to Liu Yin.

"Where should I put it?"

"I asked in a very casual way," Madam Xu asked.

"Put it here."

Jiang She pointed to the offering table.

As instructed, Madam Xu gently lowered the willow branch from her back, allowing her to lean against the altar.

The black robe was loose, revealing the woman's jade-like shoulders and half of her snow-white breasts.

The woman kept her eyes closed.

But when Jiang She glanced at her, he noticed that the rhythm of her chest heaving had subtly changed compared to when she was unconscious.

At first, it is light and shallow, which is consistent with the state of being in a drowsy state.

But at this moment...

The woman's breathing became three times heavier.

As she exhaled, her shoulder blades tightened slightly, causing the skin at her collarbone to crease into fine wrinkles; as she inhaled, she deliberately suppressed her breath, making it slow and even, as if trying her best to maintain the illusion of being asleep. However, when the only thing covering her body, her robe, fell off, her eyelashes still trembled almost imperceptibly.

"Oh!"

Jiang She smiled gently: "You're awake, young lady?"

There was complete silence on the other side.

Jiang She shook his head and took a step forward.

The shadows enveloped Liu Yin completely.

"Girl, stop pretending. I know you're awake."

Liu Yin remained silent, her eyes still closed.

Jiang She's eyes turned cold, and he reached out to pull at his robe:

"Still pretending? If you keep pretending, I'll tear this robe off!"

"You dare!"

Before he could finish speaking, Liu Yin's body trembled violently.

She couldn't keep up the act any longer.

A pair of eyes suddenly lit up in the darkness, like cold stars bursting forth, staring intently at Jiang She's outstretched hand. At the same time, she swiftly raised her jade arm, gripping her robe tightly and pulling it back.

Jiang She's hand remained suspended in mid-air, without actually tearing at it.

His eyes were fixed on her silently, a smile playing on his lips.

"What? You're not pretending anymore?"

"snort!"

Liu Yin's eyes were sharp. She covered her chest with her robe and took a few steps back, but the dilapidated temple was too narrow. Before she could take more than a few steps back, her heels hit the corner of the wall.

"You pervert! What exactly do you want?"

"Is humiliating me not enough? You want to find a woman to humiliate me too?"

Liu Yin called out.

Her hat had long since fallen off, her black hair was disheveled and draped over her shoulders, her pretty face was flushed red with shame and indignation, but her eyes revealed a fierce glint, like a female beast driven to the brink of despair.

"Young lady, you've misunderstood."

Jiang She smiled and said sarcastically:

"Young lady, you wish to find your fellow disciples caught in the turmoil. I kindly helped you find them, yet you still blame me."

"Um?"

Upon hearing this, Liu Yin's gaze suddenly turned to Madam Xu.

She looked him up and down, her eyes sharp as a knife.

"Are you the one who calmed things down?"

She asked directly.

Madam Xu nodded blankly: "Yes, that's right."

Liu Yin raised an eyebrow slightly.

She hadn't expected the other person to answer so frankly.

The assassins who quell the storm are all skilled at hiding; how could there be such a naive and impulsive person as her?

Is he a complete newbie?

Liu Yin thought this through, and then asked, "What is your ranking within the sect?"

She was asking about the ranking of assassins.

Within the turmoil, ranking is determined by strength; the higher the ranking, the stronger the power.

Without even thinking:

"I'm the fourth-ranked player."

She spoke as if she were a top courtesan, her words light and airy, tinged with a hint of pride.

"Um?"

Liu Yin was taken aback upon hearing this.

Top spot?

Isn't that... Xu Lian?!

Thinking of this, Liu Yin gritted his teeth secretly.

How could she not remember the name Xu Lian?

Ever since the incident of entering meditation, she has been overshadowed by others in every way. No matter how many assassinations she has taken or how many sects she has cleaned up, she will always be ranked second in the sect.

And the name at the top...

It will always be the name "Xu Lian".

But tonight... this woman in front of me, who doesn't seem very bright, actually claims to be Xu Lian?

Haha, that's hilarious!

Liu Yin burst into laughter.

"You say you're Xu Lian? Hah, even Xu Lian can fail in an assassination attempt and be besieged by the Black Army?"

Liu Yin laughed so hard he almost fell over, clearly not believing it.

Madam Xu didn't say much, but simply beckoned with her finger and said softly to Liu Yin:

"If you don't believe me, then so be it, we'll just have to fight it out!"

"Oh?"

Liu Yin raised an eyebrow, revealing an approving look: "You do have some courage."

"I just don't know how good his skills are."

"Hmph! You'll know once you've fought it!"

Madam Xu was not without temper. It was only because her fellow disciples wanted to assassinate her that she harbored some resentment. Now that she had brought the matter to the surface, this woman even mocked her. She deserved to be taught a lesson.

But Madam Xu doesn't bully people.

She glanced at the long legs beneath the willow-shaded robe; the calves and thighs were plump in some places and slender in others, fair and smooth, except for the red marks around the knees, as if from kneeling on the ground for too long.

Even though you're naked, I won't bully you.

"I'll take off all my clothes too!"

As she spoke, she reached out to take off her clothes.

"???"

Jiang She was stunned, but before he could stop her, Madam Xu had already reached out to unbutton her bodice.

She reached out her delicate hand, grabbed the collar, and roughly yanked it to both sides!

"Rip—!"

The bodice ripped open with a snap, revealing the undergarment underneath.

Without stopping, Madam Xu went to untie the belt around her waist.

As soon as the buckle came undone, her trousers slipped down and bunched up at her ankles. Then, she took off her embroidered shoes, revealing her fair and delicate feet.

Followed by.

With a flick of her toes, Madam Xu kicked her trousers aside in the bright moonlight.

Whether it was because she didn't find the right angle or something else, she accidentally kicked the warm trousers at Jiang She's face.

Jiang She was unable to dodge in time and was covered by trousers.

He straightened his nose, and before his trousers even arrived, a strong, alluring feminine scent filled the air.

In the blink of an eye.

Madam Xu was already completely naked, standing inside the hall.

Moonlight streamed through the cracks in the broken tiles, illuminating her alabaster neck and chest, making them glow.

Her legs were long and straight, with smooth and firm muscle lines. She was completely naked, yet showed no shyness, standing with her hands on her hips, her almond-shaped eyes wide open, staring at Liu Yin, and said:

"Come on, I'll let you have three moves!"

"..."

Liu Yin was stunned.

Her lips parted slightly, her eyes filled with astonishment.

What... what kind of approach is this?!

In the martial arts world, who fights naked like this? Have I been in seclusion for three years and fallen behind the times?

But she was still somewhat ashamed and indignant.

She felt that Madam Xu's behavior was a deliberate attempt to humiliate her.

In an instant, feelings of shame, anger, absurdity, and other emotions surged and intertwined.

Liu Yin gritted her teeth and cursed:

"Shameless!"

"How could Ding Feng Bo have a disciple like you!"

"Um?"

Upon hearing this, Madam Xu tilted her head, looking puzzled.

"In martial arts competitions, fairness is paramount. If I'm not wearing mud, I'm not wearing mud either—that's what fairness is!"

As she spoke, she pointed to the robe Liu Yin was wearing: "I didn't have a robe, so I took it off."

"The mud will soon come out of the blockage."

"..."

Liu Yin was speechless for a moment.

She glanced down at the only robe she was wearing, then looked up at the naked Xu Niangzi opposite her, who looked completely at ease. The sense of absurdity in her heart grew stronger.

This woman... could she really be a fool?

I also have to learn how to strip naked like her...

snort!

Never mind, let's strike first.

Liu Yin snorted coldly and his figure suddenly shot forward.

In the blink of an eye, he rushed to Madam Xu's side and reached out to stab her throat!

This strike was swift as lightning, ruthless and cunning.

Madam Xu neither dodged nor flinched.

Simply raise your hand forward and gently grab.

"Snapped!"

With a crisp sound, her jade hand firmly gripped Liu Yin's wrist.

Liu Yin felt a chill run down her spine and tried to pull her hand away, but no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't pull her wrist out.

"The first move."

Madam Xu smiled, revealing her pearly teeth.

Liu Yin's expression changed drastically.

Since she couldn't pull her wrist back, she simply stopped trying. In the blink of an eye, she pointed her left hand and swiftly poked Xu Niangzi's eyes!

"Swoosh—"

With a full-force thrust, a burst of energy shot from his fingertip, like a white line.

Madam Xu tilted her head, and the white thread flew past her ear before slamming into the wooden pillar with a thud, cracking like a spider web.

"The second move."

Madam Xu smiled and said again.

Liu Yin, filled with shame and indignation, decided not to remain.

She reached down with her left hand and pulled a wet dagger from between her thumb and forefinger. She gripped it in the back of her hand and slashed upwards.

It pierced straight at Madam Xu's brow!

At the same time, he twisted his waist and his right leg swept horizontally towards Madam Xu's side like a whip.

"Swoosh—"

The wind howled, creating a sharp, piercing sound as it cut through the air.

The attacks, one above and one below, were perfectly coordinated. Even if one dodged the thrust of the short sword, there was little strength left to dodge the whip kick that struck first after being struck later.

However, Madam Xu did not dodge. She simply turned slightly to the side and used her waist and abdomen to take the blow.

At the same time, she reached out her jade hand and gently pinched two fingers together. But in Liu Yin's eyes, the hand was like a sudden storm. As soon as it was reached out, it turned into hundreds of afterimages and pinched towards the short sword.

"Bang!"

With a muffled thud, a whip kick struck Liu's waist.

Liu Yin felt as if she had kicked an iron plate, the force of the impact was so great that her ankle went numb, sore and burning.

Immediately afterwards, another clang of metal clashing rang out:

"Bang! Bang!"

A few sparks flew, scattering across the willow-shaded view.

She glanced at the spot where her attention was still focused on the foot that had struck Madam Xu's waist, but the short sword that was aimed at her brow had already been caught by two slender fingers, and the blade was shattering inch by inch.

"This is... the Hundred Methods of Dragon Capture?!"

Liu Yin's expression froze.

Although she didn't know this move, it was a move that only the sect leader and the top assassin Xu Lian knew during the calming of the storm.

But the woman in front of me knew how.

The answer here is self-evident.

But if she really is Xu Lian, how could Xu Lian have failed in his killing? There must be some misunderstanding!

Realizing this, Liu Yin was about to speak, saying that it was all a misunderstanding, but Madam Xu made the first move.

She suddenly tightened her grip on Liu Yin's wrist, pulling, leading, and tugging it towards her!

Liu Yin suddenly felt her body lose its balance and fell forward, but Madam Xu's other hand reached out from a tricky angle and grabbed her shoulder tightly.

Five fingers, like hooks, grip straight into the bone.

"Snap!"

A faint cracking sound came from my shoulder blade.

Liu Yin cried out in pain, his face turning deathly pale.

Madam Xu did not stop there.

She twisted her waist and exerted force with her jade-like arms, actually lifting Liu Yin into the air!

It slammed to the ground like a tattered sack!

"boom--"

Dust flew everywhere.

Liu Yin crashed heavily onto the bluestone slab, his internal organs churning as if in a storm, a sweet taste rising in his throat, and he vomited a mouthful of blood.

She struggled to get up, but her body felt like it was falling apart, and she couldn't muster any strength at all.

Madam Xu stepped forward, her bare feet pressing down on her chest, flattening her round, full breasts like a sponge cushion.

under the moonlight.

The woman's naked body stood as majestic as a mountain.

She lowered her eyes, looking at the disheveled woman at her feet:

"Still want to fight?"

"No... I'm not fighting anymore..."

Liu Yin lay on her back, her black hair disheveled like grass, her eyes wide open, her gaze filled with horror.

This woman...

Their strength is terrifyingly real!

In her presence, I felt as vulnerable as a child!

She also knows the Dragon-Capturing Hundred Techniques, a skill only a sect leader can use. There's no doubt about it; this stupid woman is truly Xu Lian...

Thinking of this, a bitter feeling rose on Liu Yin's lips.

It's ridiculous that she just... mocked her for being a newbie. If word got out, she would be mortified.

"Sigh..."

Liu Yin slowly closed her eyes, ceasing her struggle.

She lost...

They were utterly defeated.

Seeing that she was no longer resisting, Madam Xu lifted her foot.

He then bent down, picked up the clothes scattered on the ground, put them on, and then pulled the trousers from Jiang She's head and put them on.

"Phew~"

With the trousers no longer covering his head, Jiang She breathed a sigh of relief.

"Phew, these trousers smell amazing, they almost made me faint from the odor."

"Huh? What are you talking about?"

"Oh, it's nothing, the long pants almost suffocated me."

Jiang She shook his head, then gave a victorious smile to the willow tree on the ground: "Miss."

"Now...can we talk properly?"
