Feng Xiaofeng raised his hand to rub his eyes and said with a self-deprecating smile, "I haven't been this happy in a long time, and I almost lost my composure."

Then, he shook his head and said, "Senior Brother Su Yi, I still don't recommend you seek revenge. Even if your cultivation has recovered, most of those guys come from prominent families, and this is Yunhe County City, their territory. What you're doing is too dangerous!"

He took a deep breath and looked up at Su Yi, "A gentleman avenges a wrong after ten years. With your talent, Senior Brother, you will surely become a martial arts master in the future. There's no need to rush."

Su Yi smiled and said, "Xiaofeng, since I dared to come, I already have the confidence to resolve everything. Besides, I'm not a gentleman; I can't bear to wait that long."

Feng Xiaofeng fell silent, then said bitterly, "But... but I can't help you anymore..."

Su Yi casually said, "Back in the Qinghe Sword Mansion, you helped me many times. This time, I can handle it alone."

He paused and continued, "I came to see you not to seek your help, but because I owe you too much. If I don't repay you, I won't be at peace."

Feng Xiaofeng sighed, "Those things from back then are not worth mentioning. I didn't expect you to remember them."

"How could I forget?" Su Yi placed his hands behind his back, his eyes filled with reminiscence, "In the 496th year of the Great Zhou Calendar, I was fourteen years old, and I had only been practicing in the Qinghe Sword Mansion for two months."

"That day was the first day of the eleventh month. I received three bottles of pills and ten spirit stones. On my way back, I was surrounded by Jing Hu and his gang, who forced me to hand over the pills and spirit stones."

"Of course, I didn't give them, and then I was beaten up by them. I was lying on the ground, covered in blood."

"Many outer disciples saw it, but they were afraid of Jing Hu's gang and didn't dare to help me."

"Only you, this fearless kid, rushed out to carry me to get treated, but you were also beaten up by Jing Hu's gang, and you were even more injured than I was. When I finally recovered, I had to carry you back."

Hearing this, Feng Xiaofeng couldn't help but laugh, "Who hasn't been young? Back then, I was so naive, always ready to help, and even though I was beaten up, I never regretted it."

Su Yi also smiled, "Later, we became brothers in adversity. The white eyes, ridicule, sarcasm, and oppression we faced, you and I shared. If it weren't for you, I might not have been able to persist back then."

Feng Xiaofeng was also deeply moved.

"Back then, after I became the head of the outer disciples, I planned to bring you into the inner disciples as soon as I entered. Who would have thought..."

At this point, Su Yi's eyes showed a hint of change, "I became a discarded disciple of the Qinghe Sword Mansion and ended up as a赘婿."

He looked at Feng Xiaofeng, "What I didn't expect was that you would end up like this too. If my guess is correct, it was Nian Yunqiao, right?"

Feng Xiaofeng's face changed, his eyes darkened, and he said bitterly, "I knew I couldn't hide it from you, Senior Brother."

Su Yi's tone was cold, "He broke your legs; I'll make him pay with his life!"

Feng Xiaofeng immediately panicked and opened his mouth to say something.

But Su Yi interrupted him, smiling, "You must be thinking that Nian Yunqiao has the Nian family behind him, a powerful clan, and you're trying to persuade me not to act rashly, right?"

Feng Xiaofeng sighed, "You know all this, why are you still so stubborn?"

"This isn't stubbornness."

As Su Yi said this, a loud voice came from outside the courtyard,

"Brother Xiaofeng, Xiaoran was kidnapped by the Black Tiger Gang!"

A thin, pale-faced youth rushed in, his face full of anxiety, "Brother Xiaofeng, you have to think of a way. If Xiaoran falls into the hands of those villains, she will surely be sold to a brothel."

Feng Xiaofeng's face changed drastically, as if struck by lightning.

Xiaoran is his younger sister, only thirteen years old!!

His chest heaved, his eyes turned red, and he gritted his teeth, "Afei, where did you see Xiaoran being kidnapped?"

The youth named Afei said, "On the side of Chunya Alley, but I suspect she has already been taken to the Black Tiger Gang."

"Do you know where the Black Tiger Gang's hideout is?"

Su Yi asked directly. In his mind, an image of a little girl appeared, wearing a simple and old floral dress, with two pigtails, big and bright eyes, and a smart and adorable look.

Back when he was practicing in the Qinghe Sword Mansion, he often visited Feng Xiaofeng's home and knew that Feng Xiaofeng loved his younger sister, Feng Xiaoran, the most.

"Know it!"

Afei nodded quickly.

Su Yi patted Feng Xiaofeng's shoulder, "Don't panic, stay here and wait. I'll bring Xiaoran back."

His words were casual, but they made Feng Xiaofeng's heart race, "Senior Brother Su Yi, this time... this time, I really have to trouble you."

"Afei, you lead the way."

Su Yi didn't waste any more words and walked out of the courtyard.

Afei hurriedly followed.

As they left the courtyard, Su Yi said to Huang Ganjun, who was waiting there, "Stay here and guard."

Huang Ganjun nodded quickly.

"I hope that little girl is fine, otherwise..."

A surge of killing intent rose in Su Yi's heart, his eyes cold and indifferent.

Since he regained his memory, this was the first time he had such a strong desire to kill.

There was no other reason.

Because he cared.

...

Where there is light, there is also darkness.

Beneath the prosperity and wealth of Yunhe County City, there are also many underground forces that thrive in the shadows.

The Black Tiger Gang is one of them.

This gang makes a living by trafficking women, using despicable and dirty methods.

But the Black Tiger Gang is also smart; the women they traffic mostly come from the poorest and most powerless families, who naturally have no power to seek revenge.

Yuchun Alley.

The stronghold of the Black Tiger Gang.

The entire alley is occupied by the gang members, and ordinary people dare not approach.

As the sunset turned the sky a fiery red, the blood-red sun slowly disappeared on the horizon.

"Big Brother Su, that's Yuchun Alley over there. I... I don't dare to go any further..."

Afei stopped from a distance, his face showing fear and hesitation.

Su Yi nodded and walked forward alone.

He held a bamboo cane, his steps seemingly slow but actually quick, his tall figure casting a long shadow in the sunset.

Afei originally planned to turn and leave, but after hesitating, he bit his lip and stayed, hiding his thin body carefully in the corner of a wall.

"What is this young master here for?"

As Su Yi approached the entrance of Yuchun Alley, two burly men rose from the shadows, their eyes sizing up Su Yi's appearance, their words cold but polite.

"Where is the little girl you just kidnapped?"

Su Yi said, his gaze already looking deep into the alley.

As night fell, red lanterns hung in the alley, and the sound of boisterous drinking and shouting could be heard.

One of the burly men showed a wary look, "What little girl? Young master must be mistaken. We are all law-abiding citizens."

The other man frowned, "I advise you to leave now, or be careful of the dark and slippery road!"

Su Yi flicked his thumb, and the Dust Edge Sword rang out, piercing out without looking.

A cold light flashed like a star.

Puff! Puff!

The two burly men's eyes bulged, their throats pierced with bloody holes, making them only able to make hoarse sounds.

Then, their bodies fell to the ground.

Su Yi had already walked into the shadows of the alley, his demeanor calm and composed.

From a distance, Afei saw this and almost screamed, quickly covering his mouth, his heart surging with shock.

Is this... the power of a martial artist?

At the end of Yuchun Alley.

In front of a courtyard with blue bricks and black tiles, red lanterns hung high, casting a warm orange light, dispelling the darkness.

Two Black Tiger Gang members guarded the red door, whispering to each other, occasionally letting out lecherous and ambiguous laughter.

Suddenly, they saw a tall figure walking out of the shadows.

"Who are you?"

One of them asked instinctively.

Under the lantern light, the figure appeared in the mottled shadows, his handsome face flickering, with deep and indifferent eyes.

Just being looked at by those eyes made the two men shiver, as if they had fallen into a cold pit, and their drunkenness dissipated.

Then, a sword flashed.

The two men felt a sharp pain in their throats, instantly losing consciousness, their bodies falling to the ground.

Su Yi didn't even look, pushing the door open and entering.

The courtyard was noisy and lively, with five or six banquet tables set up, and more than twenty Black Tiger Gang members drinking and reveling, their shouts, laughter, and clinking of cups echoing.

In the dark corner of the courtyard, some were indulging in debauchery, and there were more than one couple.

The scene before him was a perfect embodiment of the phrase "filth and corruption."

When Su Yi walked in, it didn't attract much attention.

"Who are you? Why haven't I seen you before?"

A man, pulling up his pants, walked out from the corner of the courtyard, his mouth full of alcohol, drunk.

Behind him was a half-dressed, flushed, and seductive woman.

The man sized up Su Yi, his breath reeking of alcohol, "Didn't you hear me asking you a question?"

Su Yi glanced at him.

Just that glance made the man shiver, as if he had fallen into a cold pit, and his drunkenness dissipated.

Su Yi asked, "Tell me, where do you usually keep the girls you kidnap?"

"In... in the dungeon."

The man stammered.

He didn't know why, but he felt an overwhelming fear, as if a mere ant facing the judgment of a deity.

"Where is the dungeon?"

Su Yi asked again.

The man pointed, trembling, towards the main hall at the far end of the courtyard.

He was about to speak.

Puff!

A sword flashed, piercing his throat.

"Brother Yong, I still want..."

The seductive woman didn't notice anything unusual, her eyes full of passion, and she walked forward to lean on the man.

A stream of blood spurted from the man's throat, splattering her face.

She froze, then let out a hysterical scream, "Ah—! Murder! Murder!"

The scream, filled with fear, cut through the night.

The lively atmosphere in the courtyard fell silent, and everyone stopped what they were doing, looking at the terrified woman.

Then
