Chapter 470: Worthy Sir, Save Me

"Thank you, Expeditionary Commander!"

In the sky, Old Man Hu respectfully saluted the newcomer.

That pale-faced middle-aged man stroked his beard, narrowed his eyes: 'Hmm.'

On the ground, the head of the Wu Family was the first to react, seeing that middle-aged man stepping through the air, his face instantly turned ashen: 'Primordial... old monster!'

A group of Wu Family members widened their eyes, their faces deathly pale.

Primordial Dan experts can fly and traverse the earth, wielding great supernatural powers—what merit does a little Wu Town have to deserve a Primordial Dan cultivator? What should the Wu Family do?

Wu Junxi hurriedly shouted at the monk on the ground: 'Venerable monk?'

The monk finally reacted, leaping up and pointing at Old Man Hu in the sky: 'You bastard, dare to collude with the brothel?'

Old Man Hu laughed loudly: 'I myself am a disciple of the brothel; you, this stinking monk, are blind—today is your day of death, and I will hang that woman behind you and play with her!'

Wu Junxi was terrified out of his wits, shaking his head as he said: 'V-Venerable monk!'

The monk gritted his teeth again, flashed upward, the Buddhist light on his body more intense than ever: 'In Lingtai Mountain there is an old Buddha who saves all beings and subdues demons!'

Behind him appeared a Buddhist shadow, and in an instant its aura reached the peak of the Ninth Level of the Qi Hai Realm.

'Useless! You have no idea how terrifying the Primordial Dan Realm is!'

The pale-faced, beardless middle-aged man shook his head and pointed a finger.

'Bang!'

The Buddhist light on the monk's body dissipated, and he heavily fell to the ground, leaving a plump imprint on the blue stone slabs, then spat out a mouthful of old blood, his face turning deathly pale as his body shook violently.

'How?'

That middle-aged man brought Old Man Hu down to the ground, stepping slowly toward the monk.

Upon seeing this, the Wu Family members panicked and scrambled to retreat.

Old Man Hu followed behind the middle-aged man, pointing at the Wu Family members and fawningly saying: 'That girl called Wu Junxi is truly not bad; although her looks are ordinary, she possesses a Water Spirit Body, exceptionally so, and her mother is still thirty-five this year, also possessing a Water Spirit Body—mother and daughter together, the Expeditionary Commander gets first dibs!'

'Particular!' the middle-aged man narrowed his eyes.

'Courteous!' Old Man Hu bowed.

'This... this...' the Wu Family members trembled, retreating again, with Wu Junxi and Wu Jun Chong among those retreating the fastest, for they were the family's future and naturally prioritized escaping.

However, they discovered that a person was blocking the way ahead.

They dazedly lifted their heads and saw it was Wu Hao's friend, who angrily shouted: 'Get out of the way, what are you doing standing here?'

Heng Xian didn't move, even ignoring them.

They were about to speak more, but the aura fluctuated ahead, and that middle-aged man had already prepared to kill the monk on the ground.

Wu Junxi and the others dared not look again, and were about to go around.

However, at that moment, a even more chilling aura suddenly appeared beside them.

They lifted their heads and saw Wu Hao's good-for-nothing friend, with a small sword phantom clasped in his hand.

Although the small sword was tiny, it seemed to contain an inexhaustible force; those nearest to it instantly felt a chill run through their bodies, their courage gone.

'Whoosh—'

The small sword left his hand, passed through the crowd, and in a flash struck toward the middle-aged man's palm that was slapping the monk.

The middle-aged man noticed, jerking his head up: 'Who?'

'Too late!'

Almost as soon as he uttered the word 'Who,' the sword shadow, wrapped in devastating force, arrived.

'Pfft—'

His entire arm was chopped to pieces.

And the sword shadow did not stop, shooting straight toward Old Man Hu behind him; Old Man Hu had no time to react before being pierced through, his body split in two.

'Plop!'

Fresh blood spattered everywhere, and the corpse fell to the ground.

Yet the sword shadow did not stop, with a 'whoosh' it slashed the highest building of the Wu Family to the left front; the wooden structure did not collapse, but the body was pierced through, leaving a huge, ferocious sword mark!

The entire courtyard fell into dead silence!

Old Man Hu's bloody corpse steamed with heat!

The middle-aged man clutched his severed hand!

The monk was stunned.

Wu Junxi and the others stared with their mouths open at Heng Xian, who was right before them.

All the Wu Family members looked over, each one stunned wide-eyed.

Too violent!

Too scary!

What the hell is this tiny sword, having such power! It's simply beyond their comprehension!

Is this still a fight of spells?

Wu Hao was actually the first to react, trembling as he pointed at Heng Xian: 'You... you...'

'Does this count as being an expert?' Heng Xian stretched lazily.

Wu Hao trembled: 'Yes! Yes...'

Wu Junxi and the others trembled even more, eyes wide open with a clueless expression, suddenly recalling what Heng Xian had just said—'I am an expert!'

He... he really is an expert! And a terribly frightening expert!

At this moment, the monk in front also turned his head to look: 'You...'

Heng Xian smiled: 'You've fallen on hard times, Bu Fan!'

This monk is none other than Heng Xian's childhood friend, Sun Bufan of the Sun Family!

Sun Bufan let out an "Aow" and cried: "Sir, save me!"

Heng Xian chuckled lightly, looking at the middle-aged man who had lost his hand.

The middle-aged man panted heavily, slowly retreating: "Your Excellency's attack is fierce; aren't you afraid of retaliation from the Flower Tower?"

Heng Xian flicked his sleeve: "Kill you and I won't fear retaliation!"

The middle-aged man's face darkened: "Do you dare to give your name?"

Heng Xian said: "I go about without changing my name, I sit without altering my surname; why should the Blue Mountain Sect know?"

"No need to know, I've remembered you; just wait for the Flower Tower's methods!"

The middle-aged man gave an evil laugh, turned into a mass of black qi, with a "whoosh" vanished instantly in place.

"You think you can escape?"

Heng Xian pointed a finger: "Sword of Evil!"

"Vast Waves——"

The Chi Mei Sword sprang from its sheath, enveloping the boundless malice between heaven and earth, and flew away instantly.

"Ah!"

A piercing wail came from afar.

Soon, the Chi Mei Sword flew back, already covered in fresh blood.

Heng Xian wiped his sword and sheathed it, looking at Sun Bufan: "Let me help you?"

"No need!"

Sun Bufan climbed up himself, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and gave a fawning smile: "Sir Heng, your might is overwhelming; my admiration for you is like the endless flowing river, continuous and unending..."

"Nonsense!"

"Then... find a place, I'll treat you?"

"That's more like it!"

"......"

In the Wu family's grand courtyard built to the highest standard, a banquet was set out.

The dishes were the famous century-old braised pork trotters from Wu Town, ten catties of steamed bear paws, a large basin of blood clams, a plate of peanuts, and a plate of scallions with soybean paste and large pancakes.

The liquor was Wu Town's specialty fiery liquor.

Sun Bufan gulped down a sip of liquor with a "slurp": "Sir Heng, it's bitter; the disciples of the Fourteen Sects have been abused enough!"

"How so?" Heng Xian ate a clam.

Sun Bufan set down his cup: "It all started because of Zhao Ying of your Tianyuan Sect, who chanced upon a young lady nearby; for some reason, he became bewitched as if possessed, and fell infatuated."

"Let him be bewitched, but the result was that he was crippled! Then he fled in panic, sending a letter to nearby Xu Wei, who seems also to be from the Tianyuan Sect."

As it turned out, Xu Wei also suffered a loss, and then sent letters to Niu Wanli and Bai Lianhua; consequently, Tong Quezi, Lin Shuyu, Huo Yuanqing, and others all arrived!

Yet these people still suffered losses; coincidentally, Yu Qiuyi of the Great Expansion Sect and Zhou Zhan Yi were nearby, and then one pulled another along, until finally the young elite practitioners from all sects and clans who were out training arrived!

Afterwards, we discovered we had been lured into a trap set by the Flower Tower!

The result was that those who were to be captured were captured, and those who were to be killed were killed.

The elders came to rescue, but it seems they were also intercepted by the Flower Tower's master; the Flower Tower intends to cut off the roots of the Fourteen Sects!
