Zhu Tian: Starting from the World of Zongwu

Song Xuan did not let Lu Xiaofeng do it, but chose to come in person. His cultivation has reached his current level. Next, if he wants to continue to improve on the path of swordsmanship, the best way is to kill people!

Best of all, the one killed is a master in the martial arts world.

Standing in the rain, Song Xuan put away the paper umbrella in his hand and casually stuck it into the ground. Then he looked up at the sky, watching the rain falling continuously, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

He likes this kind of weather, it's perfect for killing people.

The rain from the sky was falling lightly, but when it approached Song Xuan, the raindrops seemed to deliberately avoid him and did not fall on him at all.

Standing outside the door, Song Xuan suddenly said, "You've been looking for a while, don't you plan to come out and meet me?"

"Haha, this is the first time I've seen prey come out to look for hunters!"

Suddenly, laughter was heard in the yard.

Then, the gate of the courtyard opened automatically without any wind, and the next moment a man in blue walked out of the courtyard with a calm expression and a composed demeanor, without any tension of an impending battle.

This person must be wearing a human skin mask. His face looks weird and eerie. He seems to be smiling, but also seems to be crying.

When they reached the door, the man in green looked Song Xuan up and down, "What's your name?"

"Oh?" Song Xuan sneered, "As a killer, you don't even know who you killed. That's a bit unprofessional!"

The man in green shook his head slightly, "I'm just here to wait as ordered. I only know that I'm here to kill someone, but I still need to wait for further notice as to who to kill.

I just didn't expect that you would come to me before I even received any follow-up instructions."

Song Xuan nodded slightly and said lightly: "Song Xuan!"

Hearing this, the man in green shirt stood up straight and announced his name: "Yi Ku!"

Green Demon Hand Yi Ku is a famous killer in the martial arts world. His whereabouts are always mysterious. If it weren't for Lu Xiaofeng's extraordinary lightness skills and wisdom, ordinary Xuanyi Guards would not be able to find his whereabouts.

"Now that your name has been announced, it's time for you to get going!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Yi Ku's figure disappeared from the spot out of thin air. In an instant, Song Xuan felt a sharp and cold breath coming from behind him.

Behind Song Xuan, Yi Ku looked like a green light, with energy swirling in her wide sleeves, and the rain around her was swept away violently in an instant.

There was a terrifying green light flashing on this person's hands, and a shrill roar came from the light and shadow, as if a ghost had been released from its cage to take lives. The roar could even affect people's minds.

Song Xuan smiled slightly. This man's strength was indeed amazing. In the blink of an eye, the other party's palm, like green lightning, was close to his vest.

If this blow lands solidly, the chest of an ordinary innate warrior will be pierced from behind in an instant.

just,

Just as Yi Ku's palms were approaching, something strange happened. There was a sound of sword chanting, and the rain curtain between heaven and earth seemed to stop in an instant, and then turned into a roaring water dragon, rolling back into the air.

"not good!"

Yi Ku was shocked, and in an instant, the Green Demon Hand slapped out thirty-six times in a row, using such violent and fierce force that it finally blocked the water dragon that was attacking her.

Without any hesitation, he took advantage of the impact of the water dragon and flew backwards. He felt like retreating and was ready to leave the place.

The knife is not sharp and the horse is too thin. I don’t want to fight with you.

In a duel between masters, the strength of each other can be judged in just one move. This young man was a little stronger than he expected.

For such a master, the salary given by the employer is not enough, he will have to pay more when he goes back!

"Don't you think it's too late to run now, sir?"

Song Xuan's body was like a swimming dragon, as fast as a startled wild goose. With a long roar, the long sword in his hand exploded in the rain. The tip of the sword was shining with a red rainbow light and pierced straight out.

As the sword was drawn, the rain between heaven and earth whizzed out like a hail of bullets, completely covering most of Yi Ku's figure.

Yi Ku was horrified, and the Green Demon's hands crossed and slapped out wildly. When the raindrops swept in and collided with his palms, there was a sound of metal collision.

Just as he was struggling to cope with the onslaught of the violent rain, a cold star appeared before his eyes, like flying stars in the sky condensed into a point, gradually occupying his field of vision.

The next moment, he felt a chill between his eyebrows, and there was a hint of warmth in the chill. The feeling of ice and fire made him feel a sense of extreme refreshment in his blurred consciousness.

With a flash of sword light, Song Xuan pulled out the long sword from between Yi Ku's eyebrows. The next moment, blood began to seep out from the opponent's eyebrows, and the tall body fell heavily to the ground.

Chapter 103 Don’t bother me, don’t disturb me from watching the show

Yi Ku's body was discovered the next day by a traveling merchant who was passing by and preparing to rest.

The corpse was soaked in the rain for a day and a night, but there was no change at all. It looked lifelike, as if it was just sleeping.

This is the power of innate warriors. Even if a person dies, his body is extremely strong and will not rot even after several months.

As the news of Yi Ku's death spread, people from all walks of life in Yangzhou City began to talk about it.

Compared to the Jiang family's property being ransacked, people in the martial arts world are more concerned about how Yi Ku, a famous master of innate skills, died.

"Yi Ku has been famous for many years. She has extraordinary Qinggong skills and has fought with many innate masters. Sometimes, even if she was defeated, she could still escape by luck with her Qinggong skills.

Such a powerful person is dead?"

"He is indeed dead. He is completely cold. His body has been carried away by the constables from the prefectural yamen."

"It still feels incredible. You know, Yi Ku is not only an expert in Qinggong, but he also mined the essence of gold and iron, tempered it with hundreds of poisons, and forged it for several years before he was able to forge the Green Demon Hand, one of the most famous weapons in the martial arts world.

Not only is it hard and sharp, it is also extremely poisonous. Even those veteran masters of the innate realm are unwilling to provoke it easily.

I can't believe he died just like that?

Does anyone know how he died?"

"It's said that he was stabbed between the eyebrows by a sword. Judging from the condition of the body, Yi Ku tried his best to use his Green Demon Hand to block the attack, but it was still no use. The Green Demon Glove and his palm were pierced by the sword!"

"What kind of sword can pierce the Green Demon Hand?"

"Could it be that this person has provoked the Sword Saint Ye Gucheng?"

"Not necessarily. Yi Ku has offended countless people. It's not impossible for the great hero Yan Nantian to take action. His Pure Yang Wuji Sword is a famous divine weapon in the martial arts world. It can definitely break the Green Demon Hand!"

"He cried, he cried. Every time he killed someone, he would cry over the corpse. Now that he is dead, he can only cry for himself.

Karma is a cycle, and retribution is inevitable! "

......

When Song Xuan returned to the Qianhu Office, the rain had not stopped yet, but there was no sign of being wet on his body.

He was in a good mood. Every time he fought with a master, he would gain some insights into the way of the sword. He now liked this world of swords and sabers more and more.

"Sir, is the trouble solved?"

Lu Xiaofeng walked out of the next room and asked casually.

He knew very well how powerful this Lord Song was. Unless the Lord showed mercy, the other party would have no chance of survival.

Song Xuan nodded slightly, "You've heard of the Green Demon Hand Yi Ku, right?"

"It's him!" Lu Xiaofeng smiled, "I was just watching from afar at the time, and his figure was shrouded in robes, so I really didn't recognize him.

This man is no ordinary person. He fought with me before. He couldn't break my Lingxi Finger, but I couldn't stop him either. I didn't expect that I was unlucky this time and ran into you, sir."

Song Xuan hummed, "This person's light body skills are indeed good. Ordinary people really can't stop him."

Yi Ku's Qinggong was very good, but unfortunately, Song Xuan's sword was faster, so Yi Ku died.

"Sir, the killer is dead. Assassination is not feasible. I guess those families in Yangzhou City will take follow-up actions."

Song Xuan nodded and ordered, "Go and take control of the garrison commanders of Yangzhou City. If necessary, anyone who dares to disobey will be killed!"

Lu Xiaofeng took the order and stood up and left without any unnecessary words.

Following the adults, he would have to kill people sooner or later. He couldn't bring himself to kill ordinary people, but he had no psychological pressure to kill generals who might rebel.

After Lu Xiaofeng left, Song Xuan sat at the desk and did not handle official business, but sat cross-legged to practice.

The affairs of the eight major families have never been a problem for him. No matter how strong the other party is, they are not a martial arts sect after all, so it is not difficult to deal with them.

He was waiting, waiting for the other party to instigate a riot among the people, giving him a legitimate excuse to eradicate several major families.

In the Yangzhou prefectural government office, the prefect who claimed that he would not see anyone but his troops was sitting in a side room, gnawing on a chicken leg.

A man dressed as a legal advisor quickly pushed the door open and walked in. "Your Excellency, I've heard that the Xiao family is contacting the people outside the city and is preparing to riot!"

Upon hearing this, the prefect chuckled, slapped his thigh, and was overjoyed.

"As expected by this government, the Jiang family is in such a miserable state, how could the Xiao family and other families not react at all!"

"Let's fight, it's best to fight to the death. Those aristocratic families are not good people, and those warriors of the Xuanyi Guard are not good birds either. It's best if both sides are defeated. Only then will we, the civil servants, have a chance to come forward!"

The prefect was very excited. Logically speaking, as the head of a prefecture, a third-rank official, a local leader, he should have great power in his own territory.

Before taking office, Prefect Xu thought so, but unfortunately, it was only after taking office that he understood what local clan power was.

Here, any decision he made would not be able to leave Yangzhou City unless the eight major families gave their approval.

That feeling of being suffocated is really depressing.

As a prefect, he did not even live as comfortably as those powerful county magistrates. His former ambitions had gradually faded away over the years.

But now, Prefect Xu saw hope.

Song Xuan, the young and naive man, wanted to use the eight wealthy families in Yangzhou as a ladder for advancement, and he also wanted to see the power of the local wealthy families destroyed and regain the power of the prefect.

At this moment, the most excited person was not Song Xuan, nor the wealthy families who were preparing to launch a riot, but him, the prefect.

Seeing that the Xuanyi Guards and the local aristocratic families were about to fight, Prefect Xu was enjoying the show and wished he could personally come out to fan the flames and start the fight.

"Sir, which of these two sides do you think will win?" The advisor whispered, "Should we make some preparations in advance? I think Song Xuan has a better chance of winning. How about we give him a tip and try to establish a good relationship with him?"

"No, let's just pretend we know nothing. We won't side with either side. Song Xuan is a murderous man. After he wipes out the eight major families, it will inevitably cause an uproar in the imperial court.

These aristocratic families are not weak in the court. When the time comes, all officials will impeach him. It is hard to say whether the emperor will protect him.

I am a legitimate second-place finisher, and I belong to the clean stream. There is no need for me to get involved in such matters. You can just go and make arrangements and do the security work for the prefectural yamen."

As he spoke, he drank his tea with a smile and even started singing.

"I watched him build a tall building, I watched him entertain guests, and I watched his building collapse..."

"People rioting? Haha, do you really think that's a surefire way to succeed? You deserve to be in trouble for running into a ruthless character like Song Xuan!"

Chapter 104: Kill without mercy!

The third day of September in the 301st year of the Great Zhou calendar was a day that the people of Yangzhou would never forget.

Now is the autumn harvest season, the busiest time for the people. Before daybreak, many people outside the city have gone out to work in the fields.

As the capital of Jiangsu and Zhejiang Prefecture, Yangzhou is extremely prosperous. Even though it is still early morning, the shops on the streets throughout the city have already opened, and the streets are bustling with people, making it very lively.

"what is that!"

In Yangzhou City, at the east gate, some vendors were queuing up to enter the city. Someone cried out in surprise, and the next moment, a chaotic and panicked cry rang out one after another from all over the city gate.

Everyone turned around to look, and saw that thousands of people had suddenly poured out of the city gate. These people were dressed like ordinary people, but each of them held a weapon in their hands and held up a banner. Before the soldiers at the city gate could react, they rushed into the city.

"Officials are forcing the people to rebel. We want to survive!"

"With corrupt officials running rampant, we ordinary people can no longer survive!"

"The Xuanyi Guards are killing innocent people indiscriminately and have lost all conscience!"

Banners were waving and slogans were heard throughout the city, causing panic and unrest among the people.

"Is this a riot?"

"It's a riot. It happened once before, thirty years ago. That time, Yangzhou City was flooded with blood. I didn't expect it to happen again today!"

"What on earth are these people trying to do? Are they trying to avenge the Jiang family?"

"Humph, a wealthy family like the Jiang family who oppresses the common people deserves to be dealt with by the Xuanyi Guards. These ignorant villagers must have been instigated!"

"I don't know how the city's officials will handle this. If things go wrong, Yangzhou City might be in chaos!"

.....

Many members of big families such as the Xiao family also mixed into the mob and led the so-called mobs who could not survive into the city.

According to the plan of the Xiao family and other families, these so-called civilians they kept outside the city would not harass the people inside the city after entering the city, but would rush into the Xuanyiwei Yamen and hack Song Xuan to death with their swords.

At first, the mob did the same. Although it was messy, it was still orderly. They carried weapons, shouted slogans to kill corrupt officials, and rushed towards the Xuanyiwei Yamen.

But for some things, the idea is good, but the reality is not like that.

When there are too many people, some things become difficult to control even for families like the Xiao family. The seemingly well-organized mob, except for the few hundred people in the front, the large group behind began to become chaotic.
