Chapter 82 - Massacre
Upon seeing Qi Enshi, the murderous intent in Liu Wuxie’s eyes intensified. He was not surprised by Qi Enshi’s appearance. If anyone in Azure Billow City wanted him dead, it would be Qi Enshi, who ranked first on that list. After all, Liu Wuxie possessed books that documented Qi Enshi’s misdeeds, which made him uneasy. If these were ever exposed, his reputation would be ruined.
The best way to keep this information secret was to eliminate Liu Wuxie so that no one else would know.
“City Lord Qi, do you want to get involved in this matter too?” Bi Gongyu asked coldly with displeasure on his face.
The crowd began to exchange glances as all the influential figures in Azure Billow City, including the Song Clan, had gathered in one place. This was an unprecedented event, as it had been decades since all the experts in Azure Billow City had come together in one location.
The higher-ups of the Xu Clan were anxious. They had initially been in a crisis, but their fortunes changed when their patriarch made a breakthrough. However, when the Xue Clan became involved, the Xu Clan once again found themselves in a precarious situation.
The situation took another turn when Liu Wuxie returned, and Bi Gongyu stepped forward to support them. But just as things seemed to be going their way, Qi Enshi entered the fray, further complicating matters. It was anyone’s guess who would emerge victorious from this battle.
“The Treasure Pill Pavilion holds a transcendent position and never interferes in anything. But now that you have suddenly stepped forward to support the Xu Clan, I cannot simply stand by as the City Lord,” Qi Enshi stated, aligning himself with the Wan and Tian Clans. His response took everyone by surprise. Shouldn’t the City Lord be trying to stop the battle? Why was he supporting it instead?
“City Lord Qi, your actions confuse me. As the City Lord, you allow things to get worse. Can it be that you’re secretly behind this attack?” Bi Gongyu retorted. Along the way, he and Liu Wuxie had discussed many things, including the Terrabreak Army.
Although Liu Wuxie did not explicitly state it, Bi Gongyu could surmise that there was some animosity between Qi Enshi and Liu Wuxie. The conflict between Liu Wuxie and the City Lord Mansion had already begun when the guards from the City Lord Mansion attempted to purchase the Nine Yang Fruit from the Treasure Pill Pavilion.
“What audacity! Bi Gongyu, don’t think you can ramble nonsense just because you’re the pavilion master of the Treasure Pill Pavilion. Through my investigation, several members of the Xue Clan died at the hands of the Xu Clan. As the City Lord, I naturally have to enforce the law in this city. As long as the Xu Clan hands over the culprit, the two clans will naturally retreat,” Qi Enshi roared, confusing right and wrong as he imposed a crime on the Xu Clan.
“That’s right! Hand out the culprit!” Tian Qisha echoed along. The situation became rigid, and only Liu Wuxie maintained his silence. Since his arrival, Liu Wuxie had not said a word.
“Qi Enshi, I will resolve our feud sooner or later. As for now, get lost if you don’t want to die!” A terrifying aura swept out from Liu Wuxie. Liu Wuxie called out Qi Enshi’s name directly, blatantly telling everyone that there was a feud between them and there was an opportunity for them to resolve it in the future, not now.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Everyone was stumped with their mouths wide open.
“I-Is he insane? How dare he talk to the City Lord in this manner?!” The shop owners gathered around and looked at Liu Wuxie like they were looking at a madman.
The Tian and Wan Clan’s disciples laughed as Liu Wuxie amused them.
“Is the Xu Clan insane? They’re on the brink of being wiped out,” many people murmured, still siding with the Xu Clan due to their good reputation. Liu Wuxie’s words naturally sparked discontent among the crowd. In their eyes, the City Lord was an official figure in the city, while the Xu Clan was merely a local clan.
Liu Wuxie had no intention of explaining his feud with Qi Enshi and did not care about the opinions of others. Whether he was ridiculing or insulting Qi Enshi made no difference to him.
“Boy, I will remember what you said today. We’ll see if you’re still alive to talk about it after this is over!” Qi Enshi suppressed his anger, as he considered Liu Wuxie to be as good as dead. The situation became clear when Qi Enshi positioned himself in front of Bi Gongyu, preventing him from intervening.
Xue Yang faced Xu Yilin while those from the Tian and Wan Clans charged at the Xu Clan, including Liu Wuxie. As long as Bi Gongyu was held down, everyone else from the Xu Clan wouldn’t be a threat.
Qi Enshi might be domineering but wouldn’t fall out with the Treasure Pill Pavilion. His only objective was to hold back Bi Gongyu, allowing both sides to fight without intervention.
Since Qi Enshi wasn’t joining the fight, Bi Gongyu couldn’t join the fight either, and this was Qi Enshi’s true objective.
Liu Wuxie nodded at Bi Gongyu, indicating that he only needed to restrain Qi Enshi and leave the rest to him. Bi Gongyu understood Liu Wuxie’s intentions and withdrew his aura, facing Qi Enshi. As long as Qi Enshi did not make a move, neither would he, and the two had an unspoken understanding.
“Uncle, take everyone from the Xu Clan and retreat to the main gate!” Liu Wuxie turned to look at Xu Yishan.
“Wuxie, I know that you’re strong. But the two clans have too many people, and you alone aren’t enough to deal with them!” Xu Yishan still remembered vividly how Liu Wuxie defeated Wolf Fang with three moves back in the mines.
Wolf Fang was at the fifth level of the Spirit Cleansing Realm. However, the situation today was different, as both Tian Qisha and Wan Rongze were at the peak of the Spirit Cleansing Realm, and there were also three Spirit Cleansing Realm experts from the Xue Clan. It seemed unlikely that Liu Wuxie could win all by himself.
“Lan Yu!” Liu Wuxie yelled as he didn’t like to explain himself.
“Master!” Deacon Lan suddenly fell down on his knees, covered in wounds.
“Take them away!” Liu Wuxie ordered. He couldn’t issue an order to Xu Yishan, but he could order Deacon Lan. Deacon Lan’s position in the Xu Clan was even higher than Xu Yishan, and the guards here were all Deacon Lan’s subordinates.
“Roger that!” Deacon Lan retreated with the guards after receiving Liu Wuxie’s orders. With Liu Wuxie present, there was nothing more for them to do.
“Second Master, let’s leave,” Deacon Lan whispered as he approached Xu Yishan.
Xu Yishan stood there, seething with anger, but he was powerless to do anything. He had always looked down on Liu Wuxie when he was younger, so it was only natural for Liu Wuxie to ridicule him now.
The street was wide, and the corpses of the Xu Clan’s guards were carried away.
“Brat, you want to stop us by yourself? How ignorant!” Tian Qisha sneered. It was undeniable that the aura given off by Liu Wuxie was intimidating. But Liu Wuxie was only in the Xiantian Realm, and Tian Qisha did not take him seriously.
“Don’t kill him so easily. Capture him alive because I want to chop him up and feed the demonic beasts I raised. I can only relieve my anger after seeing him completely eaten up!” An elder of the Wan Clan said, looking at Liu Wuxie as if he wanted to devour him.
“Don’t worry about it, Elder Wan. I’ll torture him slowly!” The Tian Clan also hated Liu Wuxie to the core.
As the disciples of the Tian Clan approached, Tian Hong and Tian Yequan led the party, harboring strong hatred for Liu Wuxie. That was especially true for Tian Yequan, who had been slapped by Liu Wixie back in the colosseum.
“You guys can come at me together. I don’t want to waste time!” Liu Wuxie beckoned everyone from the Wan Clan. There were only roughly two thousand people, and they weren’t enough for him to butcher. From this day forward, he intended to erase the Wan and Tian Clans from Azure Billow City.
“How cocky. Let me cripple you first, then!” Tian Yequan and Tian Hong charged forth.
They still didn’t know that Liu Wuxie had reached the fourth level of the Xiantian Realm. As they closed in, coming within a few meters of Liu Wuxie, the guards of the Xu Clan grew anxious, wondering if Liu Wuxie could truly turn the tide.
Xu Yilin and Xue Yang remained still, waiting to see how things would unfold.
As Liu Wuxie unsheathed his sword, Tian Yequan and Tian Hong were frozen in place as if they had been magically immobilized.
“Trash!” Liu Wuxie exclaimed as he disappeared. His voice echoed, “Since you don’t want to come at me together, then wait to be slaughtered by me!”
When Liu Wuxie swung his sword, a terrifying buzzing noise emanated from the blade, filling the street. The sound vibrations caused many low-level cultivators to bleed from their noses.
“Shit!” Wan Rongzhe suddenly realized something wasn’t right because Liu Wuxie was too strong.
Liu Wuxie was like a tiger entering a flock of sheep as he dashed into the Tian and Wan Clan’s party. They were caught off guard because they had not expected Liu Wuxie to be so strong, and he began executing his sword technique within the crowd.
With every swing of Liu Wuxie’s sword, blood splattered, and more people fell to the ground. In just three breaths, there were already massive casualties among the disciples of the Wan and Tian Clans, leaving a large empty space with over a hundred corpses lying on the ground.
Among them were experts in the Xiantian Realm whom Liu Wuxie slew with one strike of his blade. The scene was gruesome, with corpses either decapitated or dismembered.
This sight caused all the onlookers to gasp in shock, as it was beyond their comprehension. Even though the air they breathed was freezing, they couldn’t feel the cold.
“How is he so terrifying?!” The shop owners who had previously mocked Liu Wuxie now felt their legs give out beneath them as they collapsed onto the snow, unable to stand. Those nearby quickly distanced themselves from the shop owners.
The guards of the Xu Clan were shocked, rubbing their eyes and wondering if they were hallucinating. But after repeated confirmations, they finally realized that those people were indeed dead, killed by Liu Wuxie alone.
Bi Gongyu had anticipated this scene, but he couldn’t help but be shocked when he saw it. In the past ten days, he had witnessed countless miracles created by Liu Wuxie and had grown numb to them. But he still couldn’t help being amazed every time he saw Liu Wuxie perform another miracle.
Qi Enshi narrowed his eyes, a powerful murderous intent emanating from him. Liu Wuxie’s performance had far exceeded his control, and he knew that Liu Wuxie would pose a significant threat in the future.
Master Huo pulled out a handful of his beard but didn’t feel the pain. The Xue Clan was the most shocked because they had seriously underestimated Liu Wuxie’s fighting prowess.
“Y-Young master is too strong!” the Xu Clan’s guards exclaimed in disbelief as they came to their senses.
Xu Yishan smiled bitterly when he saw this scene and didn’t know what to say. He now knew why Liu Wuxie called them to back off. They would only get in his way if they stayed around.
“ARGH!” Tian Qisha screamed as he watched the disciples of his clan being slaughtered by Liu Wuxie, and his voice shook the snow off the houses on both sides.
