Chapter 111 Xu Shaoyu Escapes
The Cangling Sect elder, enraged, slammed his fist on the table and roared, "Alliance Leader Xu is right. This former alliance leader has long since retired from the martial world. Alliance Leader Xu is highly skilled in martial arts and kind-hearted. How can you slander him? Alliance Leader Xu, I will teach him a lesson today."
Having said that, the elder, wielding a steel knife, charged menacingly at Li Changyu. Li Changyu's figure flashed like a ghost, and with a swift backhand slap, he knocked the knife from the elder's hand. Immediately afterward, without hesitation, he unleashed a powerful palm strike, instantly cleaving the elder in two. The elder staggered backward, utterly disheveled.
Seeing this, the crowd was already dissatisfied and began to discuss among themselves. "This person is impersonating the former leader; he's probably just looking for an excuse to cause trouble."
“Brother is right. This Li Linxi is handsome and refined, with clear eyes and a gentle and jade-like demeanor. How could he possibly be such a crude and uncouth person as this?”
The crowd launched into a tirade, full of doubt and accusations against Li Changyu. But Li Changyu stood there, his gaze resolute, unmoved by their words. He knew in his heart that he had to prove his identity and expose Xu Shaoyu's conspiracy.
"Xu Shaoyu, you still want to argue? Today I will kill you. You traitor who betrayed your master and ancestors, what face do you have to live in this world?"
Li Changyu, too lazy to waste words with him, drew his sword and charged at Xu Shaoyu. Although Xu Shaoyu had learned the Qingfeng Sword Technique, he had already mastered techniques to counter it over the past three years. The two exchanged blows, their swordplay clashing, and for a time, neither could gain the upper hand.
Xu Shaoyu was secretly astonished, never expecting Li Changyu's swordsmanship to be so formidable. He had thought his Qingfeng Sword Technique was invincible, but he never imagined that Li Changyu could actually counter it.
Li Changyu also sensed Xu Shaoyu's strength. He knew he couldn't delay any longer and had to end the battle quickly. So, he unleashed his ultimate move. His swordplay suddenly became incredibly fierce, and Xu Shaoyu was caught off guard, his sword piercing Xu Shaoyu's chest.
Xu Shaoyu collapsed to the ground, spitting blood. He stared at Li Changyu, his eyes filled with resentment and anger. He never imagined he would be defeated by Li Changyu, and he hated himself for not killing Li Changyu back then.
Li Changyu looked at Xu Shaoyu without a trace of pity. He knew Xu Shaoyu was a ruthless man; if he didn't kill him today, he would be the one to die tomorrow. He sheathed his sword, intending to finish the man off.
Suddenly, a cloud of smoke rose from the shadows, and several sharp arrows pierced the air. Li Changyu swung his sword to block them, and in that moment, Xu Shaoyu disappeared without a trace. His third uncle secretly informed him that he had sent people to follow them.
We must find out who is behind these people. After all, Xu Shaoyu was young and impetuous but had a heart full of justice.
When the smoke cleared, Zheng Zhao realized something was wrong; his sister was nowhere to be found. He frantically searched everywhere, but to no avail: "What happened? Where's the Second Miss? You bunch of useless trash, go find her now! If you can't find her, you'll all be executed!"
Chaos reigned within the city lord's mansion. A group of servants, terrified, collapsed to the ground, begging for mercy. "My lord, spare us! The Second Miss's disappearance is not our fault; it's all this man's fault."
The butler pointed at Li Changyu with trembling hands, his face filled with fear and anger. "It was this man who ruined the Second Miss's wedding day. His troublemaking has not only caused the groom to disappear, but the Second Miss has also vanished."
Upon hearing this, City Lord Zheng Zhao realized what was happening and immediately flew into a rage. His majestic face twisted with anger, and his eyes widened as if they were about to spit fire.
"Seize them! Torture them to find out the whereabouts of the Second Miss!" At the order, the guards of the City Lord's Mansion surged forward like a tide, each wielding a weapon and exuding a menacing aura.
Seeing this, Li Changyu's eyes sharpened, realizing that things were unlikely to end well. He quickly pushed Shi Wanxia to his third uncle and said urgently, "Third Uncle, protect Miss Shi and get out of here first. I'll cover the rear."
Uncle San looked reluctant, his brows furrowed. "How can we let the young master cover our retreat?" Shi Wanxia pulled Uncle San back to the side, calmly advising, "Uncle San, Brother Li is highly skilled in martial arts. We're useless if we stay; we'll only be a burden to him. Let's go first." Uncle San looked at the young master with worry, his heart filled with reluctance, but he understood that Shi Wanxia's words made sense. In the end, Uncle San gritted his teeth and quickly left the city lord's mansion with Shi Wanxia.
Li Changyu, sword in hand, stood there like a god of death, blocking the guards of the city lord's mansion. His eyes were cold, seemingly devoid of any emotion. The guards looked at Li Changyu, a chill creeping into their hearts, but duty called, and they had no choice but to grit their teeth and step forward.
Li Changyu flicked his wrist, and his longsword emitted a crisp ringing sound. He launched the first attack, his figure flashing like lightning as he rushed towards the guards. With a swift and clean strike, one guard fell to the ground instantly.
Seeing this, the other guards roared and charged forward. Li Changyu was fearless; his swordsmanship was incredibly sharp, each move carrying deadly power.
Swords flashed, blood splattered. Li Changyu moved through the guards as if they were nothing, his figure like a ghost, elusive and unpredictable. Though numerous, the guards were utterly helpless before Li Changyu. His attacks were all deflected, while his counterattacks inflicted heavy casualties on them.
City Lord Zheng Zhao watched in astonishment. He hadn't expected Li Changyu's martial arts to be so formidable, and his guards to be so vulnerable before him. Gritting his teeth, he decided to take action himself. Zheng Zhao drew his sword, roared, and charged towards Li Changyu.
Li Changyu sensed Zheng Zhao's powerful aura, and his expression grew even more serious. He knew that Zheng Zhao was the city lord, and his martial arts skills were undoubtedly extraordinary. But he did not back down and met Zheng Zhao's attack head-on.
Their swords clashed in mid-air with a deafening roar. A powerful gust of wind swept outwards, forcing the surrounding guards to retreat. Li Changyu and Zheng Zhao engaged in a fierce battle; their swordsmanship was exceptionally refined, each move brimming with deadly intent.
The battle raged on for a long time, and both Li Changyu and Zheng Zhao sustained injuries of varying degrees. Neither of them retreated, continuing their fierce fight. Just then, Li Changyu suddenly spotted an opening in Zheng Zhao's defenses. Without hesitation, he seized the opportunity and thrust his sword into Zheng Zhao's chest.
Zheng Zhao was terrified, but it was too late to dodge. He could only watch helplessly as Li Changyu's sword pierced towards him. At this critical moment, a mysterious figure suddenly appeared and blocked Zheng Zhao's path.
The mysterious man, wielding a short sword, easily blocked Li Changyu's attack. Li Changyu stared at the mysterious man, his heart filled with doubt. Who was this mysterious man? Why did he save Zheng Zhao? The mysterious man looked at Li Changyu, smiled slightly, and said, "Young man, your martial arts are not bad, but you shouldn't be causing trouble at the City Lord's Mansion."
Li Changyu snorted coldly and said, "They forced me first. I was just protecting my friend." The mysterious man shook his head and said, "No matter what, you're not leaving today." With that, the mysterious man attacked Li Changyu again.
Left with no other choice, Li Changyu had to fight again. The mysterious man's martial arts skills were extremely high, even surpassing Zheng Zhao's. Li Changyu gradually found himself in a difficult situation, but he still did not give up, stubbornly resisting the mysterious man's attacks.
Just as Li Changyu was about to collapse, he suddenly heard a long howl. A figure flew in like lightning and landed beside Li Changyu. It was his third uncle. It turned out that after Shi Wanxia left the city lord's mansion, his third uncle had been worried about Li Changyu's safety. They had found some help outside and then returned to rescue Li Changyu.
Third Uncle looked at Li Changyu with concern in his eyes. "Young Master, we've come to help you." Li Changyu felt a warmth in his heart and said, "Third Uncle, why are you back again? It's very dangerous here."
With his third uncle's help, Li Changyu's pressure was greatly reduced. Together, they engaged in an even fiercer battle against the mysterious man and Zheng Zhao. Ultimately, through their combined efforts, the mysterious man and Zheng Zhao were defeated.
Li Changyu and the others seized the opportunity to escape from the City Lord's Mansion. They knew the City Lord's Mansion would not let the matter rest and would continue to pursue them. But they were not afraid; they decided to search for the Second Miss's whereabouts together and clear their names.
