The butler said in a spirited voice, "Giddy up!"
Pegasus then leaped over the city lord's guards and soared above the forces trained by the four major families. The steward then seized the opportunity to quickly release his spiritual power and pressure, instantly suppressing all the subordinates of the four major families.
The men found themselves unable to move, their weapons clattering to the ground, making the scene remarkably orderly. The steward, however, remained vigilant.
He rode his horse to the center of the arena, while his subordinates, who had been suppressed by him, could only stare blankly at each other, unable to do anything. When the people from the four major families saw that the city lord's steward had actually made a move, they also picked up their spears and went into battle.
"Butler, I've long admired your reputation. May I ask how capable you are?"
"Excuse me!"
These four people didn't forget to say these polite words before the duel.
The butler, however, spoke up directly: "Let's begin!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the steward dismounted, stroked the horse's mane, and then it went back to its place.
Seeing this, the patriarchs of the four major families realized that he couldn't do it himself and had only embarrassed himself.
Just as the white-haired old man stepped forward and raised his hand to rush towards the butler, the butler was stunned and his face changed color.
He focused his energy in his dantian, instantly channeling his qi into his palm and unleashing it, sending the elder, who hadn't even touched him yet, flying more than ten meters away. The elder crashed into a pillar opposite him.
"puff!"
The family head coughed up blood and knelt down, while the remaining three were instantly stunned.
Then two families joined forces and charged into battle, but the steward had already used up most of his strength in that attack and was starting to falter.
After all, he was getting old and hadn't used his internal energy in a long time. Facing so many opponents, he not only had to suppress his subordinates but also deal with the remaining three people, which made him somewhat overwhelmed.
With the cooperation of the three family heads, the steward was soon injured on his back and body, with many bloodstains.
He endured the pain and continued to fight back against the enemy, though his fists trembled slightly. The butler gritted his teeth and fought against the four major families.
Upon seeing this, Xie Zhou immediately intervened and blocked the final heavy blow from the four major families to the steward.
"Bang!"
The two attacks were extremely powerful, colliding and exploding in mid-air with a deep, resonant sound.
When the Li family patriarch saw that familiar woman appear before him again, his pent-up anger exploded. He stepped forward and pointed his finger directly at Xie Zhou's nose, saying, "Why are you so stubborn? How many times have I told you not to block our way, and don't try to provoke us. So what if you're powerful? This is our business, and it has nothing to do with you!"
"If you dare to help the City Lord's Mansion, then the four great families will absolutely not let you live!"
As he spoke, his hair stood on end and his eyes blazed with fury, but Xie Zhou remained calm and said, "I'd like to see just how powerful your four great families really are. But this time, I'm determined to protect the City Lord's Mansion!"
"Where did you come from? Don't interfere in our affairs. You've repeatedly meddled with us. You deserve to die thousands of times over!"
The head of the Li family was furious, his face filled with rage, almost as if he wanted to smear the word "fire" directly onto his face. Xie Zhou looked at the paper tiger and let out a roar, his face full of disdain, and said nothing.
However, the head of the Li family was not so easily fooled. The fact that he was able to join forces with others to seriously injure the steward showed that he was also quite strong. He was already controlled by anger at this moment, and immediately rushed forward a few steps, grabbing a weapon with a somewhat unique shape in both hands and launching a fierce attack on Xie Zhou.
"Prepare to die!"
A powerful aura swept towards Xie Zhou, but Xie Zhou was never afraid of it. He didn't even think about activating his spiritual power. He just watched as the weapon pierced towards his face, and Xie Zhou bent down slightly and crouched to the side, thus dodging the attack.
She then kicked the Li family patriarch in the side. The Li family patriarch gritted his teeth, burning with rage, and continued his fierce attack, but Xie Zhou dodged it with a few somersaults.
Next, the Li family head put away her weapon and launched a frenzied fist attack on Xie Zhou with both hands, but Xie Zhou skillfully dodged them all. After all, no matter how fast he was, he was only half a beat slower in her eyes.
Eye techniques are quite useful; they always give me a significant advantage in close-quarters combat.
The Li family patriarch was furious that Xie Zhou had barely been harmed by any of his attacks. He was frantically chasing after Xie Zhou when he saw that Xie Zhou was in a bloodthirsty state. He then retreated a few meters and took the seriously injured steward with him.
"Butler, you can rest here. Leave the rest to me."
The housekeeper was puzzled as to why the woman was helping him, but since someone was helping them, he gladly accepted it, especially in a dangerous situation.
Xie Zhou descended from the sky. Instead of using her peerless sword, she stopped in mid-air with both hands. Soon, the shape of a sword appeared in the air, with something resembling true energy floating on its blade.
This was a secret technique she learned from the first sect leader of the Sword Sect. Soon, Xie Zhou's hands moved as if he were holding a sword, and he struck out swiftly, instantly killing the leader of the four major families with a single palm strike.
The man staggered backward, spitting out blood, demonstrating the immense power of the attack. The others rushed to his aid, one of them saying, "Elder, are you alright? This man is far too powerful!"
