Xu Wuzhou walked towards the inner courtyard, casually snatching a sharp sword from a young nobleman on the way.
The young nobleman, whose sword had been taken, was filled with anger. However, when his gaze fell upon the three black-robed corpses, he suppressed his anger and stood trembling, not daring to say a word.
"I'm fine, let's go home."
Qin Qingmou did not want Xu Wuzhou to get into danger because of her.
"Such beautiful arms, I can't bear to touch them, let alone let them be injured like this."
Xu Wuzhou suppressed his anger. What did they think he was?
It was one thing to send people to ambush him on the road; Xu Wuzhou was not prepared to confront them immediately.
But now... they sent people to kill Qin Qingmou.
Did they really think he had no temper?
Moreover, they almost killed Qin Qingmou.
She was his wife, even if it was in name only.
But a man, if his wife is bullied and he doesn't say a word, how can he still hold his head high in the future?
Everyone watched as Xu Wuzhou, holding a long sword, led Qin Qingmou towards the inner courtyard. Many people exchanged glances, wondering if he was going to fly into a rage for the sake of a woman.
However, did he know the price he would have to pay for his impulsiveness?
Qin Qingmou was only injured, and the safest thing to do at this moment was to leave quickly.
Was it worth taking such a great risk for Qin Qingmou's minor injuries?
This was their territory! Qin Qingmou, being led by Xu Wuzhou, knew that it was impulsive, but how could she not be moved by a man who risked his life for her?
Her heart felt warm, and she forgot the pain as Xu Wuzhou held her hand.
Under everyone's watchful eyes, they saw Xu Wuzhou stop in front of the gate of the inner courtyard.
In the next moment, a loud explosion echoed throughout the Shi family compound.
The massive stone gate of the inner courtyard was shattered by a single kick, sending countless fragments flying.
At the same time, Xu Wuzhou's blood surged, and a thunderous voice echoed, making some people's eardrums tremble.
"Shi Sheng! Get out here!"
The thunderous voice brought a deathly silence to the area. The previously noisy literary gathering came to a halt.
From the inner courtyard, the Shi family's warriors emerged one after another.
The Shi family had never been breached before. The warriors, enraged, wielded their weapons and charged at the intruder.
Xu Wuzhou had anticipated this. As the attackers approached, his blood surged from his seven meridians, and his long sword trembled, cutting down like a saber with brute force.
He didn't need any techniques; sheer strength was enough to crush them.
The long sword cut through, and the attacker's long knife was sliced away. The sword's momentum did not diminish, and it cut into the attacker's chest.
With one strike, the attacker's ribs were severed, and hot blood gushed out. The attacker fell to the ground in shock, with bone fragments piercing through the flesh, a gruesome and bloody sight.
Xu Wuzhou, having killed one, did not even look at him.
His long sword continued to cut down, severing another warrior's head, which flew into the air and then crashed to the ground, splattering like a watermelon.
He severed the throat, the arm, and the spine of the warriors... in a short moment, Xu Wuzhou had killed five people, almost one per strike, with a brutal and ruthless manner, and every strike severed bones.
Many of the young noblemen present had never seen such bloodshed. They turned pale, and some even vomited at the sight of the rolling heads.
Looking at Xu Wuzhou, they were filled with fear.
This former waste of a man was now too ruthless.
Of course, they couldn't understand why Xu Wuzhou was so arrogant, killing the Shi family's warriors right in their territory, which was insane.
Xu Wuzhou's long sword continued to bleed, and his Seventh Rank Congenital strength brought a great pressure.
He continued to cut down the approaching warriors.
"Stop!"
A roar echoed, and Shi Sheng finally arrived.
Xu Wuzhou did not even look at him and continued to cut down the First Rank Congenital warrior who attacked him.
With one strike, the warrior tried to resist.
But how could he resist Xu Wuzhou? The sword cut through his forehead, leaving a deep blood trail that extended to his abdomen. He didn't have time to scream in terror before he fell to the ground.
Shi Sheng's face turned ashen. He had shouted to stop, but Xu Wuzhou still killed, showing no respect for him.
Looking at the bodies on the ground, Shi Sheng was consumed by rage. The Shi family had never been so humiliated in Lin'an City. This was too much!
"If you don't give me an explanation today, even if Qin Li arrives, I will kill you."
Shi Sheng glared at Xu Wuzhou.
Xu Wuzhou sneered and pointed to Qin Qingmou's arm wound. "Explanation?
Let me tell you, I think her blood is more precious than your lives. She has lost so much blood, and I think using some lives to compensate is not too much, don't you think?
What explanation do you need?"
It was domineering and arrogant! This was what everyone thought.
Yu Feng, sitting to the side, muttered and wrote in a notebook: "I have to remember this. It will definitely make her cry when I use it to flirt with girls in the future."
Lin Qingci was somewhat dazed, looking at Xu Wuzhou. Was this a person she had never understood?
Her feelings were complex.
Shi Sheng glanced at Qin Qingmou, seeing that she was not crippled. He cursed the three men in his heart and said to Xu Wuzhou, "The attack on Qin Qingmou at the Shi family's banquet was unexpected. We will investigate thoroughly, but this has nothing to do with the Shi family. You killed my people without any investigation, and the Shi family is not a place for a young upstart to bully."
"At your banquet, you say it has nothing to do with the Shi family?"
Xu Wuzhou laughed.
"It really has nothing to do with us!"
Shi Sheng denied.
"If you can be so shameless, I would be embarrassed not to believe you."
Xu Wuzhou replied to Shi Sheng, "But so what?"
Everyone was stunned. Was Xu Wuzhou so arrogant?
Shi Sheng was furious: "So you are deliberately causing trouble for the Shi family and killing my people."
Xie Guangping also chimed in: "Xu Wuzhou, you are going too far.
Lin'an City has its rules, and it's not your place to act recklessly."
Xu Wuzhou looked at Xie Guangping and said, "Don't worry, take it slowly.
After I get an explanation from the Shi family, I will get one from you."
Xie Guangping said coldly, "Do you have the right?
Think about how you will explain killing so many people in the Shi family."
Xu Wuzhou slightly pulled open his shirt, revealing the wounds from the battle with the three black-robed men, and said to Xie Guangping, "On the way here, three black-robed men ambushed and tried to kill me.
But they only had this much skill. I was only slightly injured by a piece of broken stone, otherwise, I was unharmed.
I killed them all with one strike.
Now, do you think I have the right?"
Xu Wuzhou narrowed his eyes at Xie Guangping, not sure if it was definitely Xie Guangping, but he was definitely involved.
Xie Guangping and the others were terrified and disbelieving.
Xu Wuzhou... one strike... killed three Seventh Rank Congenital?
Was he that powerful?
The area suddenly fell into a deathly silence.
Beep beep beep! "Brother Yu, what are you writing in your notebook?"
"Today, I joined a new group, learned a lot, and I need to write it down quickly.
The people inside.
They all speak so well, the girls are beautiful, the boys are handsome, and I really like it inside."
"Can you bring me in?"
"Sure, but you can't steal my thunder.
Remember, I'll say it once, the first four digits are 5964, the last five are 05967.
I really like it inside."
"I'll go in right now."
