Ai Family.
Ai Boming always felt jittery, as if something was about to happen.
Could it be that something had gone wrong at the trial conference?
Ai Boming was fraught with suspicion and doubt.
Suddenly, an earth-shattering boom came from outside.
“What’s going on?” Ai Boming exclaimed in alarm.
“Rep… Reporting to the master, someone has slashed Jizhou City with a single sword!” the butler said, trembling.
“What?” Ai Boming bolted upright, his face a mask of disbelief.
“Slashed Jizhou City with a single sword?”
“Yes!” the butler said, consumed with fear.
Indeed.
Ai Boming could now feel an exceptionally strong Sword Intent.
And this Sword Intent felt eerily familiar.
The color drained from Ai Boming’s face.
Just then, a voice came through.
“Aren’t you disappointed that you couldn’t kill me?”
Ai Boming’s face turned aghast, and he looked around.
There sat Xue An, who had appeared inside the room at some unknown time, lounging in a chair, leisurely watching him.
“You… you…” Ai Boming stumbled over his words, unable to speak.
Xue An smiled slightly, “I told you before, I spared you once, but you continued to be blind to the truth, so don’t blame me now!”
“No…” Although Ai Boming was lying in bed recovering from his injuries, he couldn’t care less at this point and flipped out of bed, collapsing to his knees with a thud.
“My lord, spare my life! I truly realize my wrongs. If you spare me, I can give you endless gold and silver treasures as well as Spirit Stones and Immortal Pills!”
Xue An looked at the panic-stricken Ai Boming, shook his head with a light sigh, “Why do people always come to regret only when they’re facing death?”
As he spoke, a Sword Qi pierced Ai Boming’s forehead.
Ai Boming looked at Xue An in shock, seemingly unable to believe that Xue An actually dared to kill him so decisively and swiftly.
Then, he slowly fell to the ground, dead.
The butler was already so frightened that he was about to faint.
Seeing his master dead, he turned and tried to run.
Xue An frowned slightly and with a swing of his sword, the butler screamed and fell dead as well.
Xue An then got up and walked outside.
By now, the entire Jizhou City was in chaos.
The Ai Family was particularly panic-stricken.
Xue An stepped into the void.
Looking down at the Ai Family below him.
At this moment, the people of the Ai Family also noticed Xue An, crying out in alarm.
“Look! That man is back!”
“Heavens, is the Ai Family really doomed?”
Amidst these cries of despair, Xue An shook his head, “I won’t kill you!”
The crowd below breathed a collective sigh of relief.
“But I must leave you with a lesson!”
With that, Xue An took a step.
The entire Ai Family estate, as if struck by a giant hammer, was leveled to the ground.
“Not too shabby!” Xue An nodded with satisfaction, then vanished into the sky.
The surviving members of the Ai Family looked at each other and then scattered in all directions.
Thus, the once-powerful Ai Family fell into decline.
Xue An returned to the trial site, where Zhu Ruyan and Bian Qingmu and others were still waiting for him.
As for everyone else, most had already dispersed.
After all, Xue An’s performance was too astonishing, already stripping everyone of their will to resist.
Xue An merely smiled at this before asking Bian Qingmu, “How about it, would you like to accompany me to Kunlun?”
Bian Qingmu shook his head, “I’d rather not, my cultivation level is such that I would only be a burden to you!”
Xue An nodded, “Fair enough, then let’s part ways here!”
With that, he turned to Zhu Ruyan and said, “Let’s set off now!”
“Yes!”
As Xue An prepared to leave, Bian Tian approached with reluctance, “Immortal Master, I still don’t know your name. Could you tell me?”
Upon hearing this, everyone around perked up their ears to listen.
For all this time, they had no knowledge of Xue An’s origins or name.
Xue An patted Bian Tian’s little head, “Remember, my name is Xue An!”
“Mm!” Bian Tian nodded vigorously and then spoke with reluctance, “Immortal Master Xue, will we have the chance to meet again in the future?”
Xue An laughed, “Of course!”
Xue An’s patience at the trial meeting was because he wanted to thoroughly understand the composition of the sects within the Kunlun Immortal Realm!
He intended to turn this place into a blessed land of the Immortal Realm for the secular world in the future.
After all, the spiritual energy here was much denser than outside.
Just as Xue An and Zhu Ruyan embarked on their journey to the main city of Kunlun.
The events that unfolded in Jizhou City spread at a terrifying speed throughout the secret realms of Kunlun.
For a moment, the whole of Kunlun was shaken.
Countless gazes turned toward this place.
Just who was it that possessed such a shocking cultivation, cutting Jizhou into two halves with a single sword?
In the northern region of Kunlun, Sword Control Villa.
The northern region of Kunlun was covered in snow and ice all year round, yet sword lights flickered frequently in the sky above.
This was the main base for the Sword Cultivators within the Kunlun Immortal Realm.
And Sword Control Villa was the most powerful setting within this northern region of Kunlun.
Within the Ting Jian Pavilion, Wu Bucheng, the current Sect Leader of Sword Control Villa, was examining his treasured sword.
Just then, Moon Blade Sword Sovereign hurriedly entered.
“Sect Leader!”
Wu Bucheng nodded and then looked up at Moon Blade Sword Sovereign.
“Have you heard about the incident in Jizhou?”
“I have!” There was a flash of fierceness in the eyes of Moon Blade Sword Sovereign.
“And one of my true disciples died in it!”
“What are your thoughts on it?” Wu Bucheng asked indifferently, beginning to gently wipe the sword in his hand.
However, his wiping involved controlling a wisp of Sword Qi on his fingertips, slowly cutting into the blade.
This world-shocking method of sword control filled Moon Blade Sword Sovereign with awe.
“I have already sent someone to investigate this person, but no one has ever seen him before, could he be a hidden Sword Cultivator?” said Moon Blade Sword Sovereign.
“Wrong!” Wu Bucheng spoke indifferently.
“Sect Leader, please enlighten me!”
“The hidden Sword Cultivators could never be as formidable! How could those decaying people, who only face the wall in caves for reflection, possess such an earth-shattering Sword Intent?”
“Then by Sect Leader’s reasoning, that means…”
“This person must have come from the secular world!”
“Impossible!” Disbelief colored Moon Blade Sword Sovereign’s face.
“Although I cannot go to the secular world myself, my disciples have been there. They told me firsthand that the place is devoid of spiritual energy, becoming barren ground for cultivation! How could such a powerful Sword Cultivator emerge from there?”
Wu Bucheng smiled faintly, “You all underestimate that secular world. Just a while ago, true disciples from Thousand Snow Sect and Overlord Sect went to the secular world, and weren’t they killed by someone there?”
“I still think it’s impossible!” Moon Blade Sword Sovereign insisted.
“Whether it is or isn’t will be clear when the time comes! How is Fei Bai’s Sword Dao progressing now?”
Mention of Fei Bai brought a look of admiration to Moon Blade Sword Sovereign’s face, “Replying to Sect Leader, since Fei Bai returned from his last experience, his Sword Dao has further improved and he even shows signs of surpassing me!”
