The warriors of Tianyi City all left.

Before leaving, he cast pitying and disdainful glances at the members of the Imperial Sword Sect.

waste!

Weaklings!

Trash!

These three words were conveyed in everyone's eyes.

Xu Xin burst into tears.

In the past, when I went out, I was always greeted with the admiring gazes of thousands.

Now, everything has been destroyed.

The other disciples of the Imperial Sword Sect also kept their heads down.

He looked listless and weak.

Several people even had a flicker in their eyes, already considering leaving the sect.

The sect's top expert was instantly killed by Tang Xuan with a single slap.

What future does this kind of sect have?

Good news doesn't travel far, but bad news travels fast.

Soon, the news that the number one genius of the Imperial Sword Sect had been slapped unconscious will spread.

Will disciples of the Imperial Sword Sect still be able to face people when they go out in the future?

When people ask, "Where are you from?"

Imperial Sword Sect?

Is that the Imperial Sword Sect that was wiped out with a single slap?

Just thinking about it is enough to make everyone feel ashamed.

Jian Du was knocked unconscious, and Xu Xin's Dao heart collapsed.

The entire Imperial Sword Sect was leaderless and at a loss.

The martial artists passing by looked at them with nothing but mockery.

At this moment, several figures landed on the ground.

The leader only had one arm.

The other arm was severed at the shoulder and covered with clothing, making it look rather tragic.

He frowned when he saw the disciples of the Imperial Sword Sect standing there.

"What happened?"

Xu Xin looked up with tears in her eyes, and when she saw the person who had come, she burst into tears again.

"Elder Shi...you've finally arrived!"

That one-armed man was none other than Elder Shi.

After being abused by Tang Xuan, he said he was going to visit a friend, which is why he was a few days late.

Xu Xin recounted what had happened while sobbing.

Elder Shi's face grew increasingly dark.

The rage in his pupils grew increasingly violent.

"You Tang family! I, Shi Feng, swear I will never let you get away with this!"

Elder Shi roared.

"Elder, you must stand up for us!"

Xu Xin said.

"Don't worry! This time I've called the three Ruan brothers. They are all peak Yuanhun Realm experts and have mastered a combined attack technique. They can definitely kill that brat!"

Elder Shi turned to the side.

Three identical-looking old men came up.

Xu Xin was suddenly startled.

"The three Ruan brothers! Could they be the Ruan brothers from Black Wind Stronghold?"

Black Wind Village is a very scary place.

It is situated on the essential route connecting the prefecture, the three ancestral temples, and the outside world.

Any martial artist who passes through must pay a toll to Black Wind Stronghold.

You don't have to pay!

The thousands of hungry wolves in the Hungry Wolf Valley behind the mountain will have a delicious meal.

Such blatant extortion, especially considering its proximity to the prefecture and three major administrative regions.

Logically speaking, they should have been wiped out long ago.

But in fact!

Even the Ximen family!

They also have to pay protection money to Black Wind Village every year.

Because the leader of Black Wind Stronghold is a genuine expert at the Innate Realm.

He has eight deputy leaders at the peak of the Yuanhun Realm under his command.

They were all once notorious bandits.

The three Ruan brothers were among them.

Their individual strength may not be very strong, but they have mastered a strange and bewitching magic array.

Anyone who falls into this magic formation will suffer a mental upheaval, lose their soul, and die.

It was absolutely terrifying.

Xu Xin never expected that the three Ruan brothers, who were feared by everyone, were actually Elder Shi's friends.

Old Man Ruan chuckled sinisterly, "Old Shi, we may be friends, but it's a deal: after the man is killed, all the Tang family's treasures will belong to us!"

Shi Feng grinned maliciously, "No problem! This is nothing!"

"very good!"

Boss Ruan nodded.

Xu Xin was certain.

"Good, with the three elders of the Ruan family taking action, Tang Xuan is doomed!"

At this moment, Jian Du slowly awoke.

His face was contorted with rage.

"I must kill him... I must kill him!"

Elder Shi said calmly, "Don't worry, that kid... is dead!"

...

Inside the inn.

Ximen Qiudi looked at Tang Xuan with annoyance.

"You... why do you always cause trouble as soon as you arrive!"

Tang Xuan stared at her in shock.

"Hey, let's get this straight. What do you mean I caused trouble? It was clearly the other party who picked a fight. I was just defending myself!"

Ximen Qiudi looked at the spatial ring on the table with a strange expression.

"What a brilliant act of self-defense! They even managed to steal the opponent's spatial ring!"

Tang Xuan said with a grin, "My time is very precious, shouldn't I compensate you with it?"

Ximen Qiudi rolled his eyes.

"Fine, I can't argue with you!"

"However, you should be careful. Jian Du is the number one genius of the Imperial Sword Sect. If he is beaten like this, the Imperial Sword Sect will not let you off!"

Tang Xuan looked at Ximen Qiudi with a grin.

"You don't mind if the three sects in one prefecture become two sects in one prefecture, do you?"

Ximen Qiudi's eye twitched.

This is tantamount to wiping out the entire family!

She had met Tang Xuan a few times and learned about his personality.

I silently prayed in my heart at that moment.

The Imperial Sword Sect should behave themselves and not provoke this ancestor.

That's how the Tianlin Sect disappeared!

As for whether it's one prefecture with three sects or one prefecture with two sects, Ximen Qiudi doesn't care.

After chatting for a few minutes...

Ximen Qiudi then got to the main topic.

"By the way, did you also come here because of the beast tide?"
