The man in black killed Wu Shoucai with a single blow.

Blood gushed from his neck.

Wu Shouchai stared wide-eyed at the man in black before him, his voice choked with sobs, "Why...why..."

He clutched his neck, blood seeping from under his fingernails. Before he could finish asking the question, Wu Shouchai's body slowly collapsed to the ground.

Then he died with his eyes wide open...

"Aaaaaah!"

Su Yun screamed in fright and quickly hid behind Xiao Yu, her delicate body trembling uncontrollably.

She had already guessed that Wu Shoucai had ill intentions, but she didn't expect these people to be so ruthless in killing, killing Wu Shoucai with just a few words.

Xiao Yu remained silent, his gaze sweeping over the four men in black.

The four men in black were all masked, with only their eyes showing, making it impossible to see their faces...

But from the aura emanating from them, Xiao Yu could vaguely sense their cultivation levels; they were actually four Grandmasters!

Even in a place like the capital, being able to invite four grandmasters at once is no small feat.

"Are you here to avenge Duke Liu?"

Su Yun was the first to speak. Her voice trembled with fear, but she still mustered her courage and said, "This has nothing to do with him... I can stay, please let Prince Xiao go!"

After saying that, he was about to kneel down and kowtow to the four people, begging to exchange his life for Xiao Yu's.

Although she was somewhat indecisive and a little foolish, she wasn't a bad person at heart... Xiao Yu thought to himself, reaching out to support Su Yun's arm so she wouldn't kneel down.

“These people are not avenging Duke Liu.”

Xiao Yu said calmly.

Upon hearing this, Su Yun was slightly taken aback. Apart from Duke Liu, she couldn't think of anyone else who would want to kill Xiao Yu and herself.

"Although we are not Liu Guogong's people, we are doomed!"

Xiao Yu sighed, his tone somewhat sorrowful, and asked, "Gentlemen, could you please tell me who sent you to kill me... so that I can die knowing the truth, and when I meet the King of Hell, I'll know how I died?"

"You're about to die anyway, why waste so much breath?"

The man in black who killed Wu Shoucai with a single blow stared at Xiao Yu with a pair of dark eyes that gleamed with a sharp light. He said coldly, "If you don't want to die so painfully, then just obediently let me kill you!"

After saying that, he slashed at Xiao Yu's neck with his knife.

"Your Highness, be careful!"

Su Yun screamed, her face turning pale with fright.

"Why."

Xiao Yu sighed softly. He had originally wanted to show weakness and get the other party to reveal who was behind it all, but he didn't expect these men in black to be so professional and not say a word. They were hardly like proper villains.

Since that's the case, then let's fight until you tell us.

Xiao Yu shielded Su Yun behind him, unable to dodge the attack. If he did, Su Yun would be the one to die.

"Bang! Bang!"

Just as the blade was about to touch Xiao Yu, he lunged forward, blocking the black-clad man's wrist with his left arm and striking the man in the chest with his right fist.

The powerful force sent the man in black flying backward with a single punch.

His body slammed heavily against the wall, smashing a large hole in the already shaky wall, and he rolled outside the house.

"He's also a grandmaster?"

Seeing that Xiao Yu had killed his companion with a single punch, the other three men in black were all shocked.

Before they came to assassinate Xiao Yu, they only heard the master say that Xiao Yu's strength was above that of the young master, but at most only one or two realms stronger!

But looking at the speed and power of Xiao Yu's punch, it was something only a grandmaster could do.

"Even if the fourth brother underestimated his opponent, he couldn't possibly be knocked away by a mere martial artist with a single punch. He is definitely a grandmaster!"

"Stop wasting time, attack together!"

"superior!"

The other three men in black exchanged glances and then drew their weapons.

One of the men in black pulled a long gun from his back, while the other two men were carrying knives.

Almost simultaneously, they rushed towards Xiao Yu.

"kill!!"

Clearly, these four men in black were extremely skilled at cooperating, even after one of them was kicked away.

The three men in black quickly formed a triangular formation, trapping Xiao Yu in the middle, and then launched an attack at the same time.

The man in black, wielding the longest spear, thrust it towards Xiao Yu's chest...

The second man in black blocked Xiao Yu's retreat with his knife, threatening to slash at him if Xiao Yu dared to dodge.

The third man in black simultaneously slashed his knife at Xiao Yu and Su Yun. If Xiao Yu dodged, he would kill the woman with one blow; if Xiao Yu chose not to dodge in order to save her, the knife would strike him...

"ah!"

Before the three men in black rushed over, Su Yun was so frightened that she squatted on the ground, covering her head with her hands!

"He's got something."

Xiao Yu saw through the three men in black's plan.

He made no attempt to dodge. Facing the thrusting spear, Xiao Yu merely smiled coldly: "Playing with a spear in front of me is no different from showing off your broadsword in front of Guan Yu."

The man in black didn't know who Guan Yu was, nor did he want to know.

All he knew was that he had to put all his strength into this shot!

"Smack!"

The man in black's all-out attack was blocked by Xiao Yu.

At the critical moment, Xiao Yu reached out and grabbed the gun barrel... At that moment, the tip of the gun was only a few millimeters away from Xiao Yu's chest.

The man in black tried to stab again, but the spear seemed to be fixed in Xiao Yu's hand. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't stab it any further.

Xiao Yu held the spear shaft, flicked his wrist, and a powerful aura was transmitted through the spear.

"So strong!"

The man in black let out a startled cry and instinctively loosened his grip on the gun barrel, revealing that his tiger's mouth was bleeding from the impact.

The spear fell into Xiao Yu's hands.

Xiao Yu stood still, his right hand twitching slightly, and the spear seemed to become an extension of his body.

"Clang! Clang!"

With two crisp sounds, Xiao Yu spun his spear with one hand, directly deflecting the longswords of the other two men in black.

The situation reversed instantly.

Xiao Yu, who had been unarmed, now had a weapon.

Of the four men in black, one was injured by Xiao Yu's punch, suffering several broken ribs; another was unarmed, his hand split open; and the last two men in black were unharmed after their attacks were blocked...

But in just a few seconds, the situation was completely reversed.

Now that Xiao Yu has a spear in his hand, even if the four men in black still have the strength to fight, they know that they cannot win this battle.

“What level are you at... You’re neither a martial artist nor a grandmaster... Even a first-grade grandmaster couldn’t defeat the four of us brothers so easily.”

The man in black, now unarmed, was the leader of the four. His voice trembled as he reluctantly voiced his suspicions: "You, you're a Grandmaster?! How is that possible, impossible..."
