"Catch the murderer!"

"Catch the murderer!"

After the sinister male cultivator finished speaking, hundreds of cultivators from Xingluo Town around him started shouting loudly.

Qin Gengyun frowned and asked Qiu Zhihe, "Madam, what's going on?"

Liusu said angrily, "Sir, as soon as my young lady and I came downstairs, we were surrounded by these people who were lying in ambush outside. They said we killed Chang Shengzi and wanted to capture us and send us to Zhenyang Sect!"

Liusu pointed at the men lying on the ground and said, "These guys looked at the young lady's beauty and spoke rudely to her!"

Qin Gengyun narrowed his eyes, and the Qitian stick appeared in his hand, bang bang bang!

As several screams rang out, the people who fell to the ground covered their legs and howled:

"Ah! My leg, my leg is broken!"

"We have no grudge against you, yet you are so cruel! Ah!"

Qin Gengyun said coldly: "You spoke rudely to my wife, I am showing mercy by breaking your legs, if you dare to say another word, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

His expression was extremely cold, and his foundation-building skills were evident.

These people suddenly became silent, not even daring to scream.

"It was him! He was the one who killed the town guard!"

"If the Zhenyang Sect blames us, our entire town will suffer!"

"We can't let him go!"

Qiu Zhihe had a cold expression and waved his hand. A magic circle appeared above everyone's heads and hundreds of flying swords emerged.

"Hundred Swords Formation?!"

"This woman actually knows how to form a hundred swords formation!"

The monks were shocked when they saw this and retreated one after another. The sinister male cultivator holding the lightning array shouted:

"Everyone, we are outnumbered and there are only three of them. Can they still get away?"

"We are all cultivators from Xingluo Town and are under the jurisdiction of Zhenyang Sect. I don't believe she dares to kill us all!"

Qiu Zhihe sneered, and the long swords in the Hundred Swords Formation trembled constantly, and were about to fall.

"Fang Zhi, what are you doing?!"

At this time, a shout was heard from afar, and Luo Wenzhi came with hundreds of people, standing behind Qin Gengyun and the other two, confronting the hundreds of cultivators led by the sinister male cultivator.

The male cultivator named Fang Zhi said coldly, "The Chang family has been guarding Xingluo Town for generations, and the head of the family is highly trusted by the Zhenyang Sect. But now they have been killed by a few outsiders, and no one in the Chang family is left alive. This matter will soon be reported to the Zhenyang Sect. If we let them go today, and the Zhenyang Sect tracks them down, we will all be in trouble."

Luo Wenzhi said: "Fang Zhi, you have no family, so you naturally cannot understand the heart-wrenching pain of having your wife or daughter killed..."

As Luo Wenzhi spoke, he must have thought of his wife. Tears welled up in his eyes, and he cried as he said:

"Senior Qin's wife and concubines avenged our family. They got rid of the evil in Xingluo Town. We should be grateful. How can we repay kindness with hatred?!"

Although Luo Wenzhi was crying, his words were also passionate and the surroundings suddenly became quiet.

"Well, I'm not a concubine, I'm a sister-in-law. If you talk nonsense, my sister will be jealous."

After a moment, Liusu raised her hand and corrected weakly.

Qiu Zhihe turned her head and looked at her coldly. Liusu immediately raised her hand to cover her mouth, blinking her big eyes innocently.

Fang Zhi saw that his people were wavering and immediately shouted:

"No matter what the Chang family's Patriarch did, he is the guardian of Xingluo Town after all. His fate should be decided by the Zhenyang Sect. How can he be killed at will?"

"Besides, there are so many people in the Chang family. Does that mean everyone has committed a capital crime?!"

Qiu Zhihe said calmly: "Chang Shengzi eats people, and they help Chang Shengzi catch people, so they all deserve to die."

There was an uproar all around, and everyone was shocked that this beautiful female cultivator could be so ruthless and decisive.

Fang Zhi laughed: "My dear senior, you and your husband have good intentions and want to rid Xingluo Town of harm, but if Zhenyang Sect sends someone to investigate and you leave, how can we explain to Zhenyang Sect? Why don't you stay for a few more days, and when the Zhenyang Sect's people come, they will deal with you fairly."

Hundreds of monks behind him echoed: "Yes, you are doing justice for the heavens, please don't implicate us!"

These people are all relatives who were not harmed by Chang Shengzi. They don’t care whether the Chang family has done anything evil or not, but they just don’t want to be implicated.

Luo Wenzhi walked up to Qin Gengyun and the other two and said loudly:

"Everyone, you have all lived in Xingluo Town for generations. If it weren't for Senior Qin and the others who killed Changshengzi, your wives and daughters would have been killed. They also saved your family members!"

Fang Zhi sneered: "Luo Wenzhi, stop pretending. Don't you just want to take advantage of these outsiders and take the opportunity to sit in the position of guardian? If Zhenyang Sect finds out that you let the murderer go privately, I wonder how you will explain it?!"

"I see. You want to fight for the position of the garrison commander, right?"

Qiu Zhihe suddenly spoke, and with a wave of her slender hand, the Hundred Swords Formation turned, and dozens of flying swords transformed from the formation patterns all hovered above Fang Zhi's head:

"Luo Wenzhi, if I kill him, no one will compete with you for the position of the town guardian."

Qiu Zhihe's actions stunned everyone.

Can this kind of secret struggle for the defense of the town be brought to the table and discussed casually?

If you killed Fang Zhi in public, wouldn't Luo Wenzhi be even less likely to take the position of governor?

Liusu covered her face. The young lady had been designated as the Holy Maiden of the Qinglian Sect since she was young. How could she understand all these twists and turns? To her, if she didn't like someone, she would just kill him.

"Haha, you are just bluffing. I am the manager of Qianye Street. If you dare to attack me, be careful of Zhenyang Sect..."

The next moment, the sword flashed and blood spurted out.

Fang Zhi looked down at his neatly severed right arm, stunned for a moment, and suddenly screamed:

"My hand! Ah! My hand! You, you..."

There was complete silence all around, and everyone who had just shouted to catch the murderer shut up.

"Madam?"

Qin Gengyun was also stunned.

"Let's go."

Qiu Zhihe stepped forward calmly, and the people around her automatically pushed aside to make way for her.

"oh."

Qin Gengyun said "oh" and followed her. At this time, Si Minglan, Fang Xue and Mo Xiaolan also came down. Everyone followed Qiu Zhihe and calmly left Xingluo Town amid countless horrified gazes.

Luo Wenzhi led dozens of monks to escort the crowd. After leaving Xingluo Town, he stepped forward and bowed, saying:

"I'm sorry, seniors. Fang Zhi will soon be joining the Chang family as a manager. The Chang family has been uprooted by you. He has no future, so he resents you."

Qin Gengyun bowed and said, "You are too polite, Brother Luo. Thank you for your help today."

Fang Xue suddenly said, "I want to stay."

Everyone looked at her in astonishment. Fang Xue said, "They are right. Although Chang Shengzi deserved his punishment, he was a guard appointed by Zhenyang Sect after all. If he died like this, Zhenyang Sect would definitely send someone to investigate. I am a disciple of Zhenyang Sect. I will stay and explain things to them. Then Zhenyang Sect will not blame Uncle Qin and the people of Xingluo Town."

"Junior sister, you won't come with us?"

Si Minglan said quickly.

Fang Xue smiled and said, "Third Senior Sister, I am confused and don't know where to go. It's a good opportunity for me to stay here and practice in silence. I can continue to seek the truth after I understand my true intention."

She paused and said quietly:

"I still can't see what Zhenyang Sect is like. I want to see how Zhenyang Sect will handle this matter. Maybe it can solve my doubts."
