The one who appeared in front of Chu Xiu was a beautiful, but very strange woman.
The woman in front of him looked to be in her twenties. She was extremely beautiful and wore a purple dress. Her hair was wet from the fog in the forest and stuck to her pale and sickly face. She gave off a feeling of exhaustion, as if she would collapse at any moment.
What attracted the most attention were her eyes. Although her body seemed to be extremely exhausted, her eyes seemed to be burning with flames. It was the wrath of extreme hatred. Even Chu Xiu couldn't help but be surprised by the astonishing hatred.
"Are you the killer sent by the Blue Dragon Society?"
The woman opened her mouth. Her voice was very hoarse, and it seemed a little awkward compared to her beautiful appearance.
At the same time, there was no expression on her face. Chu Xiu could only see the hatred in the woman's eyes. It was an almost endless hatred!
Slowly tidying up the mask and iron hat on his face, Chu Xiu said indifferently, "That's me."
The woman laughed bitterly, lowered her head and muttered, "My commission is still not enough. The Blue Dragon Society only sent an Inner Aura Realm warrior, but an Inner Aura Realm warrior can't kill a few people from the Yue Clan."
Chu Xiu knocked on the conical bamboo hat on her head and said indifferently, "Whether or not I can exterminate the Yue Clan is my problem. Since I have accepted your mission, I naturally have a way to complete it. So, what you need to do now is to hand over all the information about the Yue Clan to me. Of course, I'm also a little curious about the enmity between you and the Yue Clan. However, it's fine if you don't want to say it. The Blue Dragon Society doesn't have the habit of inquiring about their employer's privacy. I'm just curious. "
The woman lowered her head and said indifferently, "This is no longer a private matter. As long as you go to the Beiling Mansion and ask around, many people know about me. It's fine to tell you."
Saying that, the woman told Chu Xiu everything about her and the Yue Clan.
This woman was Mu Ziyi, the Young Lady of the Mu Clan of Beiling Prefecture. She was also Yue Luchuan's fiancée. Both of them were already at the stage where they were going to hold an engagement banquet.
The Yue Clan of the Beiling Prefecture was the overlord of the entire Beiling Prefecture. In fact, they were one of the few greatest forces in the entire Linzhong County.
Although the Mu Clan was slightly weaker than the Yue Clan, they were not too weak either. Both clans were in the Northern Mountain Manor. They would either fight against each other or work together. It was that simple.
Hence, in the end, after the Yue Clan and Mu Clan's discussion, both sides decided to unite by marriage. This way, they could avoid unnecessary conflicts and increase the strength of both clans.
Originally, this kind of marriage was very normal in the Jianghu. Yue Luchuan was the Yue Clan's first wife's son. Although he did not enter the Longhu Leaderboard, he still had the strength of an Innate Ranker, which was not bad.
Moreover, this Mu Ziyi was extremely beautiful. Forget about the Beiling Prefecture, even in the entire Linzhong County, there were few people who could compare to her. Moreover, Mu Ziyi was quite talented as well. She had already reached the Innate Ranker, so the two of them were suitable for each other.
However, the problem arose not long ago, when Yue Luchuan traveled to the South of Yan Kingdom.
Chu Xiu had seen Yue Luchuan's appearance before. Although this brat was a little useless, he was very handsome. Calling him a gigolo would be an insult to him.
After traveling around the South of Yan Kingdom, Yue Luchuan actually hooked up with the daughter of one of the Seven Sects and Eight Schools, the Divine Martial Sect Leader of the South of Yan Kingdom, Yan Huainan.
One was the daughter of the Divine Martial Sect Leader of one of the Seven Sects and Eight Schools, while the other was the daughter of the Mu Clan, a small clan in the Beiling Prefecture. There was no need to think about who to choose between these two.
Originally, if the Yue Clan only wanted to curry favor with the Divine Martial Sect, they could just break off the engagement with the Mu Clan. At most, their reputation would be tarnished.
However, who would have thought that the Yue Clan would be so cruel and merciless? In order to protect their reputation, and also because they coveted the Mu Clan's properties, they casually framed the Mu Clan with a crime. Before the Mu Clan could even react, the Yue Clan had already been annihilated!
Mu Ziyi's eyes shone with hatred, but there was no expression on her face. Even the tone of her voice did not change at all.
"I don't blame Yue Luchuan for wanting to curry favor with the Divine Martial Sect. If he wanted to break off the engagement, so be it. There were no feelings between us in the first place. The Yue Clan was powerful, and the Mu Clan did not dare to say anything after that. But why did the Yue Clan want to annihilate the Mu Clan in the end?
I will never forget that day. The Yue Clan used the excuse of discussing the engagement to sneak into the Mu Clan and launched a sneak attack. In the blink of an eye, the Mu Clan had already turned into a river of blood!
If it wasn't for the Mu Clan's old housekeeper, Uncle Xu, who risked his life to bring me away, I would have died there too.
Of course, the current me is no different from a dead person. A few days ago, Uncle Xu had already died from his severe injuries. Before he died, he told me a few of the Mu Clan's properties and treasures, in case of emergencies.
Uncle Xu asked me to leave Linzhong County, leave Northern Yan, and change to another place to live. "
As she spoke till here, Mu Ziyi's eyes were already bloodshot, "But I won't be satisfied until I see the Yue Clan's people die!"
When Chu Xiu heard this, he raised his eyebrows. The Yue Clan was really ruthless. They were still discussing the marriage, but in the blink of an eye, they had already annihilated the entire clan.
Of course, from Chu Xiu's point of view, the Yue Clan was still a little too petty. This way, they could indeed maximize their benefits, but in the end, they would lose their reputation.
Don't treat the people of the pugilistic world as idiots. Anyone with a discerning eye would be able to tell what was going on with the Mu Clan.
The Yue Clan's table manners were a little too ugly. They had just hooked up with the Divine Martial Sect, but in the blink of an eye, they had already annihilated their soon-to-be in-laws. This kind of thing was not good to hear.
At the very least, the other forces in the Beiling Prefecture definitely did not have a good impression of the Yue Clan. When they worked with the Yue Clan again, they would have to be very careful.
Of course, the Yue Clan themselves might not care about this. From their point of view, they had already successfully hooked up with the Divine Martial Sect. Now that they had annihilated the Mu Clan and seized the Mu Clan's properties, their strength had increased greatly. Of course, they would not care about what other people thought of them.
Chu Xiu flicked the bamboo hat on his head and said, "Your entire clan is dead? Don't worry, you'll see it. Moreover, the Yue Clan will feel that some things are scarier than death. By the way, give me all the information about the Yue Clan. Since you hate the Yue Clan so much, I believe you should have a lot of detailed information about the Yue Clan. "
Mu Ziyi handed over the information about the Yue Clan to Chu Xiu. It was indeed very detailed, so detailed that it made one's hair stand on end. Even the information and personalities of some of the Yue Clan's collateral disciples were included. There was also detailed information about the entire Beiling Prefecture, the other forces within it, their relationship with the Yue Clan, and so on.
After the death of the only old servant who had protected him, only the heavens knew how Mu Ziyi had managed to gather all this information in detail.
However, to Chu Xiu, this information would be of great help to him. It would make his plan more secure.
Standing up, Chu Xiu walked out of the dilapidated temple and said indifferently without turning his head back, "You don't have to stay here for this period of time. You can hide around the Beiling Prefecture. Within a month, I guarantee that you'll hear the news of the Yue Clan being annihilated."
Watching Chu Xiu's silhouette disappear, Mu Ziyi raised her head. The hatred in her eyes temporarily disappeared, replaced by a hint of confusion.
She knew about the Yue Clan's strength. But now, an Internal Aura Realm warrior actually told her to annihilate the Yue Clan within a month. Was such a thing really possible?
However, this assassin from the Blue Dragon Society was her biggest hope. She had already found all the financial records of the Mu Clan, but at most, she could only hire a Level 4 assassin from the Blue Dragon Society.
However, Mu Ziyi had already made up her mind. If the people from the Blue Dragon Society could not annihilate the Yue Clan, she would do it herself. Even if she could not annihilate the Yue Clan, she would still kill Yue Luchuan and perish together with him!
The Beiling Prefecture was located at the edge of the Forest County. It was not part of the central region. The reason why the Beiling Prefecture was called the Beiling Prefecture was because it was originally a mountain. However, the mountain near the south side was too steep and buildings could not be built there. Therefore, people built a prefecture on the north side of the mountain, and named it the Beiling Prefecture.
Because it was built on a mountain, the roads to the Beiling Prefecture were not that convenient. There was only a mountain road in the north, while the south side was a cliff. Moreover, the mountain road was surrounded by dense forests. It was not much better than the small paths in Wei County's Shang Xiao Mountain.
Logically speaking, with such a location, the Beiling Prefecture should only be a small prefecture. It was not considered powerful, but in reality, the Beiling Prefecture was very prosperous. The number of warriors there was more than that of an ordinary prefecture, and it was stronger than an ordinary prefecture.
As for the reason, it was actually very simple. Although the Beiling Prefecture was a mountain city and it was inconvenient to travel, the Fengshui of the mountain was very good. The Qi of Heaven and Earth was very rich, and it was very suitable for warriors to cultivate. It was not inferior to some famous mountains and rivers.
The reason why the Yue Clan could have their current strength was also because of the good location. This caused the Yue Clan to become stronger with each generation. They had developed from a small clan that only had an Innate Ranker to a large clan that was famous in the Forest County.
When night fell, Chu Xiu was also dressed in black. As if he had blended into the night, he entered the Beiling Prefecture.
