Abao looked at the shopkeeper hiding behind the counter and tapped the blade of his sword.

"Serve all the dishes from Ke Lai Xiang. If you dare to poison them or pull any other tricks, this sword will be on your head!"

"Yes, sir, I'll arrange it right away!"

The shopkeeper responded tremblingly, not daring to slack off in the slightest.

After everyone was seated, Shangguan Hong said with a face full of guilt:

"I'm so sorry to have dragged you all into this!"

Ling Yun waved his hand and laughed:

"Let's not talk about this!"

He paused, then said in a deep voice:

"As things stand, even if you destroy the Shangguan family and the Chen family, you still won't be able to clear your name."

Shangguan Hong looked sorrowful and sighed:

"Alas, the people of Zhongling City don't believe me."

At this moment, Yan Ruyu spoke:

"I suggest you have a public duel with Chen Qing, the bigger the commotion, the better, so that Chen Qing can tell the truth himself."

Xiao Yanran also said:

“Sister Ruyu is right. The one who tied the knot must untie it. As long as that adulterous couple tells the truth and the people of Zhongling City believe you, then you can go on a killing spree. Not only will no one blame you, but they will also support you!”

Ling Yun nodded, "They're right, let's do it that way!"

"good!"

Shangguan Hong looked at Ling Yun and the others with gratitude.

"Oh~ Isn't this Shangguan Hong, the scoundrel who tried to force himself on his wife and ruined his family? He's got some nerve, still has the nerve to come back to Zhongling City!"

A piercing sound rang out.

A man and a woman walked into the restaurant.

It was Chen Qing and Wang Jinlian who were the culprits who caused Shangguan Hong's family to be destroyed and his family to die.

After ruining Shangguan Hong's reputation, the two adulterers brazenly got together.

Chen Qing also gained a reputation for being a hero who saved a damsel in distress.

Upon seeing Chen Qing and Wang Jinlian, Shangguan Hong's eyes instantly turned bloodshot, unleashing a terrifying killing intent. He was about to uncontrollably kill the two adulterers.

Ah Bao stopped him in time, saying, "Brother Shangguan, don't be impulsive."

Chen Qing held Wang Jinlian's slender waist, kneading her plump, round buttocks incessantly, looking at Shangguan Hong with a mocking expression, and said sarcastically:

"Shangguan Hong, Shangguan Hong, do you really want to kill me now? Come on! Kill me, haha~"

"Abao, don't stop me!" Shangguan Hong was so agitated that he was about to lose his mind.

Chen Qing thoroughly enjoyed Shangguan Hong's out-of-control state, giving Wang Jinlian's shapely buttocks a hard pinch, and continued to mock her:

"To tell you the truth, that day was not an accident at all. I deliberately let you see me and Jinlian having sex, just to mess with you."

My Chen family has always been suppressed by your Shangguan family, becoming the perennial second-in-command of Zhongling City. And you, Shangguan Hong, are the best of the younger generation of the Shangguan family. If we don't get rid of your family, we will continue to be suppressed.

Oh, by the way, my father bribed several elders of the Shangguan family. Otherwise, why would he have removed your father from his position as family head and slaughtered your entire family the moment the incident occurred? I never expected you to survive!

Shangguan Hong suddenly realized that it was all a setup.

Once he understood what had happened, he calmed down.

At this moment, Wang Jinlian said in a sweet, coquettish voice:

"Shangguan Hong, I originally had a good impression of you, but Young Master Chen offered too much, so I have no choice but to follow Young Master Chen, hehe... You don't know, Young Master Chen's dual cultivation technique is quite amazing!"

Shangguan Hong suddenly looked at Wang Jinlian, and the bloodthirsty killing intent made her delicate body tremble, and her heart almost stopped.

Startled, Wang Jinlian quickly hid behind Chen Qing.

Shangguan Hong stood up and walked up to Chen Qing, saying coldly:

"Tomorrow at noon, I will publicly challenge you in the city center square. Do you dare to accept the life-or-death battle?"

A battle to the death!

Chen Qing frowned. Shangguan Hong was the number one genius in Zhongling City, a martial artist at the third level of Martial Soul, while he himself was at the ninth level of Martial Spirit.

However, he witnessed Shangguan Hong's soul sea being destroyed, and even if his body recovered, his martial arts foundation was broken.

Killing him would be as easy as turning one's hand.

Thinking of this, a hint of disdain appeared on Chen Qing's lips.

"Okay, I promise you! Tomorrow I will torture you to death, bit by bit!"

After saying that, Chen Qing put his arm around Wang Jinlian's waist and turned to leave.

Reaching the entrance of the restaurant, Chen Qing stopped in his tracks, as if remembering something. He turned back and said jokingly:

"Oh, by the way, I strangled your eight-year-old sister with my own hands. What a pity. I was planning to keep her as a slave, but she kept calling for her brother to save me, so I had no choice but to kill her!"

Snap!

Suddenly, a white figure darted out and slapped Chen Qing's face twice, turning it into a pig's head.

It was the little white fox who made the move.

"Hmph! You big bad guy! Brother Shangguan was definitely going to beat you to a pulp!"

The little white fox said angrily.

Chen Qing covered his face and pointed angrily at Ling Yun and his group:

"Just you wait, after Mingming kills Shangguan Hong, I'll kill you all too!"

After giving Yan Ruyu and Xiao Yanran a harsh glare, Chen Qing hurriedly left with Wang Jinlian in his arms.

If even a little white fox could defeat me so easily, how much stronger must the others be?

Upon hearing the details of his sister's tragic death, Shangguan Hong was heartbroken and squatted on the ground, burying his face in his hands and weeping bitterly.

Ling Yun patted him on the shoulder and comforted him:

"Tomorrow, those who hurt you will pay the price!"

Shangguan Hong held back his tears, his eyes filled with determination.

Immediately, Ling Yun called over several waiters and gave each of them a silver ingot.

"Now you run out into the streets and shout, tomorrow at noon in the city center square, Shangguan Hong and Chen Qing will have a life-or-death battle!"

I need every resident of Zhongling City to know this.

Upon seeing a large ingot of silver, the waiter's eyes lit up, and without saying a word, he ran to the street and started shouting at the top of his lungs.

That night, Lingyun and his group were not sleepy, except for the little white fox who was fast asleep on Yan Ruyu's proud breasts.

Shangguan Hong lowered his head and silently wiped the long sword, wiping it again and again.

Ling Yun casually sipped his spiritual tea while explaining the essentials of cultivation to A Bao, Yan Ruyu, and Xiao Yanran.

Just then, Ling Yun frowned slightly and looked at Xiao Yanran.

"There are eighteen high-level martial artists outside. Kill them!"

"Okay!" Xiao Yanran subconsciously started to move, but quickly frowned slightly and said with dissatisfaction:

"Why am I so obedient to you? You've never spoken to me in a commanding tone before, humph!"

He said that, but his body betrayed him as he rushed out the window.

Fifteen minutes later, Xiao Yanran threw a bloodstained waist tag onto the table.

"They're all from the Shangguan family!"

Looking at the waist tag, Shangguan Hong was not surprised at all.

"They're afraid I'll come back and take control of the family again! Hah... I have no attachment to that family anymore, only hatred!"

Time passed slowly, and as the sky began to lighten with the first hint of dawn, the little white fox awoke, and its first words were:

"Waaaaah~ Sister Ruyu, I'm hungry~"

Ling Yun shook his head and smiled, then patted the little white fox's head.

"Eat now! Watch Shangguan Hong kill his enemy later!"
