I only seek to enjoy the present moment, regardless of dying in a foreign land tomorrow. With a blade in hand, I'll slay demons and men alike. "Ladies and gentlemen, please be on your way!&...
580 Fire Family Head of Yansha Prefecture
Add fists to the equation, numbers to the equation, and swords to the equation.
In remote places where communication is difficult, cultivators are the only option.
Ren Pingsheng did not respond immediately, but gave Shang Tie a deep look, his eyes flashing with a complex light.
He understood the weight and pain behind Shang Tie's request, and he also knew that he alone could not change these things.
The only ones who can truly change this place are the adults and the lady.
As in this case, the reason why these people act without much scruples is because of the lady's orders and the master's powerful backing.
The adults and the lady are the real people, and every decision they make can change the fate of countless people.
He thought to himself, "Fortunately, the master and mistress are both kind-hearted. It is a blessing for us all."
For a moment, the space seemed to freeze, with only the occasional sound of breathing, and the night was exceptionally clear.
Shang Tie remained kneeling there, holding onto his last pose.
It seems to be waiting for the adults' response, waiting for possible changes, and waiting for revenge to come quickly.
It was as if I could see my enemy torn to pieces.
It also seems to be a way of expressing one's inability to resist.
The road ahead is arduous and fraught with danger. If one has any hope, one would naturally risk one's life to survive. However, even if one were to die, one would still be unable to avenge oneself.
An egg thrown against a large rock only provides nutrients.
Ren Pingsheng gently bent down and slowly helped Shang Tie up, without the slightest contempt. He felt as if he himself had experienced the pain and helplessness firsthand.
He gently placed his hands on Shang Tie's shoulders, a deep understanding and unspoken words in his voice, and whispered, "I understand your pain."
Feeling the warmth and strength in Ren Pingsheng's palm, a trace of gratitude flashed in her eyes.
He chuckled softly, self-deprecatingly, "I'm sorry to have made you laugh, sir. Seeing you all today is like witnessing my great revenge finally coming to pass."
Ren Pingsheng glanced at the others, who were also taking the time to catch up on the latest developments and adjust their breathing.
Seeing everyone nod slowly, he also composed himself and nodded gently.
In a short while, he changed into a black night outfit and covered his face with a black scarf, as if to blend into the deep night.
As he murmured to himself, every word revealed a deep resolve and composure. His gaze was sharp as a knife, as if he could see through the darkness to those lurking within.
He bowed and clasped his hands in a fist salute, saying, "Let me stir things up and see if there are any bigger fish lurking in the shadows."
His calm face showed little emotion as he continued softly, "I would appreciate it if you gentlemen could cover for me."
Yun Baiyi hesitated, then solemnly said, "Alright, be careful in everything."
Seeing that Ren Pingsheng was about to take the initiative and use his actions to lure out the enemies hiding in the shadows.
This matter was not only for Shang Tie, but also for the orders the Demon Slayer Division had received from the Lady. He didn't want to disappoint some people, and he didn't want to lose his courage.
Before he knew it, a long, narrow sword was already in his hand.
Like the night, his movements were like a ghost, and he quickly headed towards the Huo family mansion on the map, his target being the Huo family patriarch.
After waiting a short while, Yue Baiyi and the others followed closely behind.
Since it is an attack, it is a matter of life and death, and we should fight to the death and use all our strength.
The night was as dark as ink, and Ren Pingsheng, like a nimble cat, silently approached the Huo family mansion.
The figure appeared and disappeared in the darkness, as if it had blended into the night.
Walk lightly, avoiding making any noise.
With keen eyes, he observed every movement within the mansion, searching for the most luxurious central courtyard of the Huo family patriarch.
They swept past silently, like a gentle breeze, leaving no trace and alerting no guards, thus quietly infiltrating the Huo family mansion.
The quiet courtyard, with its small bridge, flowing water, rockery, garden, and several early-blooming orchids near the window, is truly magical.
Upon closer inspection, the temperature around me was just right; it turned out there was underfloor heating in the room, and I could hear the soft sound of firewood being added in the distance.
So that's how it is. This is something only some wealthy families, especially the very wealthy, could afford. It's truly extravagant.
He thought to himself, 'Thinking about it, it makes sense. I'm afraid all the forests and timber in the entire Yansha Prefecture have ended up in the hands of the Huo family.'
They even changed their surname; people with no bottom line are truly terrifying.
Gazing intently, he sensed three people on the bed, enjoying a warm spring night in the boudoir, with a beautiful concubine in his arms.
Since we're trying to scare them away, we should be decisive and a bit arrogant.
True energy gathers beneath the feet, surging and surging like a raging tide, capable of moving mountains and overturning seas.
A chilling killing intent and overwhelming momentum surged forth, accompanied by a cold smile. He swiftly raised his foot and stomped down on the wooden door.
With a deafening roar, the wooden door exploded open, turning into countless wood chips and fragments that scattered in all directions.
Wood chips and fragments flew through the air. The Fire Clan Head suddenly woke up, not even glancing at the flying, sharp wood chips.
He casually tossed aside the two beautiful concubines he was holding to deflect the flying wood chips.
He was swift and cruel, seemingly indifferent to the lives of those around him, and didn't need to care at all, as plenty of beautiful concubines were waiting to be delivered to his door.
Completely naked, a sudden chill swept over her body, and she awoke with a start, her body tracing two poignant arcs in the air.
It crashed hard, and the wood chips and fragments were as sharp as blades, instantly cutting deep wounds.
Blood stained the ground, and it groaned in pain.
The Fire Clan Head was completely naked, with a long sword already in his hand.
His face was ashen with rage as he retreated swiftly to the corner of the wall, his eyes flashing with icy flames, as if he wanted to burn the assassin who had come to break into the Huo family to ashes.
A cruel rage curled at the corner of his mouth.
It was as if to say, 'Looks like another greenhorn.'
As for the beautiful concubine groaning in pain on the ground, they were ignored at this moment.
His face was ashen, and his eyes, filled with icy killing intent, were fixed on the man in black. He was filled with shock and rage.
He thought to himself, 'After I kill this man in black, I realize that these good-for-nothings in my house have actually been sneaked in. I really need to give them a good talking-to.'
It's all my fault for being too kind; someone managed to sneak into my room.
Ren Pingsheng's expression shifted slightly, and in a swift movement, he concealed his aura, while also retaining a portion of it.
His figure flashed like lightning, heading straight for the Fire Clan Head.
The longsword gleamed with a cold light, carrying intense true energy. This true energy was three feet long, capable of cutting through gold and jade, and its sharpness seemed to be able to slice the room in two.
The Fire Clan Head showed no fear, a cruel smile curling at the corner of his lips.
Although he was completely naked, he didn't care at all, and even felt a strange sense of pleasure.
The longsword, imbued with the true energy of the entire body, hummed and trembled, as if it were reaching its limit.
His palms were bright red, his face was flushed, and his whole body was enveloped in a faint red glow, as if flames were burning beneath his skin.
