"Who dares to challenge the majesty of Dali?"
"What do their personal feelings have to do with them?"
Duan Zhengchun's expression changed drastically.
"What we need right now is to lay low for a while."
"Who knows if there might be desperate criminals among them?"
Duan Zhengming said sincerely,
"Know that staying away from beautiful women will reduce trouble."
Avoiding stunning beauties can save you from most trouble.
Duan Zhengchun respectfully replied, "Thank you for your guidance, elder brother."
He understood that the other party meant well.
Duan Zhengchun understood the gravity of the situation.
He immediately nodded solemnly in agreement.
Duan Zhengming nodded in satisfaction: "It's good that we were able to weather this storm."
After saying that, he turned and left.
Given Duan Zhengchun's philandering nature.
Do you want him to behave himself?
That would be as difficult as climbing to heaven.
............
Streets of Yuzhou City.
Wearing a veil, Lu Linxuan led the white horse slowly.
He held his sword in his left hand.
She had already found out before she left.
The Black and White Impermanence, the murderers of my father, are here.
After bidding farewell to Li Bai.
She then rushed over day and night.
We arrived at the Yuelai Inn.
Hand the horse over to the waiter.
Lu Linxuan walked straight to the counter.
"I'd like a superior room."
She revealed the Azure Dragon Society token.
The shopkeeper's expression hardened upon seeing this.
He quickly and respectfully led the way.
We arrived at a private room on the third floor.
The moment the door closed.
Wang Qian respectfully bowed to Lu Linxuan and said, "Wang Qian, the head of the Yuzhou City branch of the Azure Dragon Society's Sanyue Hall, greets Your Excellency."
Lu Linxuan raised his hand slightly awkwardly.
She then got to the point: "Do you have any intelligence on the Yuzhou branch of the Xuanming Sect?"
"Yes! I'll go get it right away." Wang Qian left quickly and returned shortly with a thin book in his hands.
"This book contains detailed records of the Xuanming Sect's branch locations, personnel, cultivation levels, as well as their relationships and background information. Please take a look, sir." Wang Qian presented the book with both hands.
Thank you for your trouble.
Lu Linxuan took the booklet and held it tightly in his hand.
"You flatter me, sir. Is there anything else you require?" Wang Qian asked humbly.
"Just prepare some food. I'll call you again if needed," Lu Linxuan replied after a moment's thought. The long journey made her decide to rest before continuing her journey.
"I'll take care of it right away." Wang Qian bowed and withdrew.
After the door closed, Lu Linxuan stretched his limbs and sat down at the table to carefully study the contents of the book.
Before long, Wang Qian personally brought the meal. After finishing his meal, Lu Linxuan sat cross-legged to regulate his breathing and conserve his energy.
As dusk settled and the bright moon hung high in the sky, the bustling city of Yuzhou gradually fell silent.
At this moment, inside a room on the third floor of the inn...
Lu Linxuan suddenly opened his tightly closed eyes, a cold glint flashing in them.
She rolled over and sat up, deftly grabbing the sword beside the bed. Her eyes grew colder, and a murderous aura rose around her.
"Twelve years..."
"Father, your daughter will avenge you for your blood debt!"
She gripped the sword hilt tightly, her words as cold as ice.
Pushing open the window, her figure instantly disappeared into the night.
At the same time, at the Xuanming Sect branch in Yuzhou City.
"Brother, when will this end?"
White Impermanence drank the wine in his cup, his expression somber.
"Let's wait and see."
Black Impermanence shook his head with a wry smile.
"With your elder brother here, I will definitely protect you."
Despite their resounding names, the Black and White Impermanence hold a lowly position within the religion.
Since their failure in the Fire Spirit Mushroom incident, even Meng Po has treated them coldly.
Demoted to this place, he was depressed all day long.
"Ultimately, it's due to insufficient cultivation..."
White Impermanence frowned and sighed.
Suddenly, a glint flashed in Black Impermanence's eyes:
"This is a perfect opportunity to focus on cultivation."
"I've heard that the Illusionary Sound Pavilion and the Tongwen Hall have little influence here."
"If one were to master the Thousand Corpses and Ten Thousand Poisons Palm technique to its highest level..."
White Impermanence's eyes suddenly lit up:
"Big brother means..."
"That's exactly what I meant." Black Impermanence nodded with a smile.
Black Impermanence curled a cold smile at the corner of his mouth, his voice filled with a chilling aura.
In the darkness, Black Impermanence suddenly froze, abruptly turning his head, his sharp gaze shooting into the shadows, and he shouted sternly, "Who?"
Although White Impermanence did not notice anything amiss, he immediately stood guard beside Black Impermanence and cautiously looked around.
A figure suddenly appeared in front of them; it was Lu Linxuan, filled with hatred.
"Who are you? How dare you trespass on the Xuanming Sect's branch!" Bai Wuchang's eyes narrowed as he coldly questioned.
Lu Linxuan sneered, "It seems you've really forgotten. Twelve years ago, didn't you say that I could take revenge on you when I grew up? Now that I'm here, you don't even recognize me?" A fierce rage blazed in her eyes.
Black Impermanence suddenly awoke with a start: "It's you? That little girl from twelve years ago!"
Bai Wuchang's expression changed drastically: "You are Lu Youjie's daughter?"
"Good that you remember." Lu Linxuan drew his broken sword expressionlessly. "Today, I will make you pay for your crimes in blood!"
"Arrogant!" Black and White Impermanence roared in unison, their figures flashing out like ghosts, their poisonous palms aimed straight at Lu Linxuan.
"The Thousand Corpses and Ten Thousand Poisons Palm?"
"After all these years, you haven't made any progress at all!"
Lu Linxuan's lips curled slightly, her eyes filled with mockery. Instead of retreating, she stepped forward, sword in hand. Her entire being emanated the terrifying aura of a peak Grandmaster, displayed without reservation.
"This is impossible!"
"How could your cultivation have improved so rapidly?!"
The Black and White Impermanence siblings' expressions changed drastically, and they cried out in disbelief. The overwhelming pressure emanating from them made their hearts tremble violently, and their faces were filled with terror as if they had encountered a ghost.
A surge of intense resentment welled up within them. Why did they have to endure life-or-death trials every time they broke through, while the person before them could easily surpass them? This disparity was simply unacceptable!
"Give me your life!"
Lu Linxuan didn't bother to respond at all; with a slight twist of his wrist, the speed of his sword increased dramatically. The sharp sword energy almost materialized, and the sound of it cutting through the air was ear-piercing.
Faced with such an offensive, Black and White Impermanence dared not be careless and hurriedly pushed their inner strength to the limit. Amidst the booming sounds of their clash, Lu Linxuan's sword techniques were unpredictable, and he managed to suppress the brother and sister single-handedly.
Suddenly, her swordplay abruptly changed. The originally fierce killing move transformed into an unpredictable trajectory, seemingly ordinary yet concealing profound secrets.
"The Azure Lotus Sword Song?!"
"Dodge quickly!"
Black Impermanence cried out in alarm, his voice filled with panic. White Impermanence immediately tensed up, ready for battle. They had long heard of the power of this sword technique, created by Li Taibai and made famous by Yang Shuzi.
However, knowing is one thing, facing it in person is another. In terms of cultivation level...
Lu Linxuan's strength was clearly superior to his opponent's, and he firmly held the upper hand.
In terms of swordsmanship, one side possesses exquisite martial arts taught by top experts of the Azure Dragon Society, while the other side only possesses rudimentary techniques learned on their own. The difference in skill level between the two is immediately apparent.
"Give me your life!" Lu Linxuan deftly deflected the Black Impermanence's attack, let out a clear shout, and thrust his long sword straight at the White Impermanence's vitals.
If this sword strikes, the victim will either die or be seriously injured.
Bai Wuchang retreated more than ten steps until his back was against a dead corner, his face filled with panic and fear in his eyes.
"Little sister!!!"
Black Impermanence, enduring his internal injuries, watched in alarm as Lu Linxuan used the momentum to stab White Impermanence in the heart with his broken sword.
In a flash, he rushed forward without hesitation and shoved Bai Wuchang aside.
With a "whoosh," the sharp blade pierced flesh.
"Brother!!" Bai Wuchang, who had narrowly escaped death, cried out in anguish, drawing his sword and lunging at Lu Linxuan with eyes blazing with fury: "I'll make you pay with your life!"
"Don't be impulsive!" Black Impermanence shouted urgently.
But it's too late.
Lu Linxuan had already withdrawn his blood-stained broken sword and was facing Bai Wuchang.
The sounds of weapons clashing rang out one after another.
Without Black Impermanence's support, White Impermanence was overwhelmed in just a few moves.
Lu Linxuan deflected Bai Wuchang's weapon, his sword strike suddenly becoming rapid, the broken sword instantly piercing into the opponent's chest.
"Little sister!!!" Black Impermanence's eyes widened in fury.
"Go quickly... don't worry about me..." Bai Wuchang gripped Lu Linxuan's wrist tightly, turned to look at his brother, and knew that his life was over.
Kyushu Peak Combat Power Ranking - 35th Seat
Black Impermanence's knuckles brushed against the bloodstains on his lips, and shattered starlight rippled in his eyes.
(Lu Linxuan's sword tassel swayed in the wind)
"Go!" The White Impermanence's voice trailed off, tinged with blood.
Black Impermanence suddenly laughed.
