Outside the Liu Residence, Mountain Splitter's body lay in a pool of blood.
Even though the sun was high in the sky, the Liu Family did not feel the slightest bit of warmth. Instead, they felt cold all over. An indescribable fear grew in their hearts like wild weeds.
So what if they had money and power? At this moment, it was impossible for them to be of any use. One man and one sword was enough to slaughter them all.
"Sir, don't be rash." A figure quickly ran over from afar as he shouted at Chen Zong.
Soon, that person arrived and appeared a dozen meters away from Chen Zong. His eyes were fixed on Mountain Splitter, who was lying in a pool of blood. His pupils shrank to the size of needles, and he was extremely shocked.
The Mountain Splitter, who had been titled for 20 years, had been killed. The Mountain Splitter was about 50 years old. For ordinary people, this was when their bodies were beginning to decline. However, for warriors, especially those who had been recruited by powerful forces, 50 years old was when they were at their peak. Regardless of whether it was their physical strength or experience, they had reached the peak.
It could be said that Mountain Splitter's strength was at the peak of his life. When he was older, even though he had more experience, his body would gradually weaken. When he was younger, his body would be strong, but he would not have enough experience.
Mountain Splitter, who was at his peak, was actually killed. Moreover, he was killed by a young man who looked no more than twenty years old.
Terrifying!
"Sir, you must be Chen Zong. I am a consecrator of the City Lord Residence. People call me the Cloaked Swordsman. My surname is Li and my name is Yang." This person quickly introduced himself. He was also a titled martial artist, but he had received his title five years ago. He could not be compared to Mountain Splitter.
Even Mountain Splitter was not a match for this young man, let alone him. If he angered him and killed him with his sword, the consequences would be unpredictable.
"Sir Chen Zong, Mountain Splitter is already dead. We can't touch the Liu Family." Li Yang did not have the slightest intention of using the City Lord Residence to oppress Chen Zong because he could not see through him. If he failed to oppress him and angered him, it would be even worse. He could only try to reason with him.
Immediately, Li Yang began to explain.
In the Long Xuan Nation, the warriors had declined, and the aristocratic and aristocratic families had a higher status. There were even more decrees issued to protect the interests and status of the aristocratic families.
If he only killed a few members of aristocratic families, he would only have a grudge with that aristocratic family.
However, if they killed too many or directly destroyed an aristocratic family, it would be tantamount to provoking the royal family. After all, the protection order against aristocrats and aristocratic families was issued by the royal family.
The consequences of angering the Long Xuan Kingdom's royal family were very serious and tragic.
After all, the Royal Family had a powerful army that was able to deal with internal conflicts and external conflicts.
Within the army, there were tens of thousands of elite soldiers. They formed a battle formation, and their killing power was terrifying.
This was a comparison between warriors and elite soldiers.
An ordinary warrior could fight against two or three elite soldiers working together.
Elite warriors, on the other hand, could fight against ten elite soldiers working together.
A Titled Martial Artist, on the other hand, could fight against a hundred people.
A Martial Saint could fight against a thousand people alone.
Elite soldiers had undergone strict training. Although they were not warriors, they were stronger than ordinary people. In a one-on-one fight, they could easily kill ordinary people. The terrifying thing about elite soldiers was their numbers.
The more elite soldiers there were, the more terrifying the killing power would be when they worked together.
Moreover, there were also heavy cavalry. Even a Martial Saint would not dare to face the charge of a hundred heavy cavalry.
In addition, there was also the Divine Bow Unit. A hundred Divine Bow Unit archers in the Divine Bow Unit shot three rounds and killed a Martial Saint.
Chen Zong listened, and his expression did not change. He had already learned about this from Chen Huang.
This was a very magical world. No matter how much the body of an ordinary person was trained, it would not exceed its limit. It would only become stronger. Even those who were born with superhuman strength could only lift four to five hundred kilograms of weight.
However, after practicing martial arts, they would be able to exert their strength more reasonably. When they reached the level of Titled Martial Artist, they would be even stronger. As for Martial Saints, Chen Zong was not sure how strong they were.
His current body was an ordinary body that could not be improved through cultivation. Even though his application and control of strength had reached an unparalleled height, and he could exert extraordinary power with a sword in hand, his body was ordinary, and his endurance and physical strength were limited.
Chen Zong estimated that he would not be able to withstand a few rounds of arrows from a hundred Divine Bow Unit archers. He could only escape, but it was hard to say whether or not he could escape.
After all, the martial arts of this world had not broken through the sky. There were times when a person's strength was limited.
Chen Zong was confident, but not arrogant.
If one did not have the strength to break the rules, one should not try to challenge the rules.
"Today, I will only kill the culprit." After hearing Li Yang's words, Chen Zong said calmly. Then, his eyes flashed with a trace of coldness, and it landed on the face of the second son of the Liu Family, Liu Huan.
Then, he took a step forward and closed in like a gust of wind. It was unbelievably fast. Even the Titled Martial Artist Li Yang could not help but be shocked. His pupils shrank to the size of needles.
In the next moment, an extremely dazzling sword light flashed. It was like a shooting star that streaked across the sky. It was unbelievably bright.
Almost everyone in the Liu Family closed their eyes. It was not that they wanted to, but the sword light was too dazzling. It was an instinctive reaction. Li Yang felt his hair stand on end.
That sword was too fast and too fierce!
As a Titled Martial Warrior, Li Yang's body had already been trained to an astonishing level. His eyesight was also much better than that of an ordinary person. All he saw was an extremely sharp beam of sword light piercing through the air and disappearing in an instant.
Returning his sword to its scabbard, Chen Zong turned around and quickly searched the body of the Mountain Splitting Sword before leaving.
The Liu Family opened their eyes one after another. They only saw Chen Zong's back view that was like a lonely peak. They immediately thought of something and were shocked. They quickly looked at Liu Huan.
They saw Liu Huan standing there in a daze. His eyes were dim and lifeless. A dark red spot appeared at his throat and gradually spread out.
"Huan 'er …" His voice was mournful, like a cuckoo crying blood.
Killing Liu Huan and exterminating the Liu Family were two different concepts. The former would only increase the hatred between him and the Liu Family, but it had already existed. Therefore, Chen Zong did not care whether it was more or less.
The latter would anger the royal family of Long Xuan Country. If they were to send out their elite army, it would be very disadvantageous for him.
Of course, if the Liu Family did not know what was good for them and insisted on killing him, then the next time would not be so simple.
Li Yang stared blankly at Chen Zong's back view that was as tall and proud as a lonely peak. He could not help but feel his hair stand on end when he thought of that sword.
Immediately, Li Yang checked the wound on the Mountain Splitting Sword. His expression became more and more serious.
"Listen up, it's best that you don't think about revenge. Otherwise, there will be a disaster that will destroy your family." Li Yang turned around and warned the Liu Family. He then turned around and strode away. He wanted to return to the City Lord's residence and report this matter. As for whether the Liu Family was willing to listen to his warning, that was their own business.
Inside the City Lord's residence.
"Sir, I suggest that you show your sincerity to recruit this person," Li Yang said to the City Lord who was sitting on the main seat after bowing.
"According to what you said, this person's strength is indeed very terrifying. He is considered to be one of the top Titled Martial Artists." The City Lord muttered. The City Lord himself had also practiced martial arts. However, due to his talent and time, he stopped at the level of an elite Martial Artist. He was very clear about the division of Martial Artists' strength.
To be able to kill the Mountain Splitting Sword so easily, such strength was definitely very terrifying.
The City Lord was also very tempted. If he could recruit such a powerful Martial Artist to work for him, of course, it would be very beneficial for him.
However …
"The Mountain Splitting Sword was a consecration of the Ming Hou's residence. He was highly valued by the Ming Hou. This person killed the Mountain Splitting Sword. I'm afraid that it will anger the Ming Hou." The City Lord hesitated. His eyes flashed and he was hesitant.
In the Long Xuan Nation, the King was the King. Below the King was the Marquis. One could imagine the status of the Ming Hou in the Long Xuan Nation.
The City Lord of the Long Jiang City was not a low position, but it could not be compared to the Marquis.
Recruiting Chen Zong might offend the Ming Hou. In this era where Martial Artists were declining, it was not worth it.
"Forget it." The City Lord waved his hand. "You may leave."
"Yes." Li Yang opened his mouth and wanted to say something. However, after seeing the City Lord's expression, he could only lower his head and turn around to leave. He could not help but feel a little lonely.
A hundred years ago, Martial Artists were so glorious and honorable. Now, they had declined to this extent. Even such powerful Martial Artists would not be recruited because of all kinds of implications and reverence.
How sad!
Although he was a consecration of the City Lord's residence, to put it bluntly, he was just a high-level fighter. He could not influence the City Lord's decision and could only accept this.
…
Chen Zong met Chen Huang, who had rushed over. After Chen Huang found out that Chen Zong had not only killed the Mountain Splitting Sword but also Liu Huan, he was so shocked that he turned into a statue.
The Mountain Splitting Sword was a veteran Titled Martial Artist. He was a Titled Martial Artist who had reached the peak of his life. However, he was killed.
For a moment, Chen Huang followed Chen Zong like a puppet. His mind was in a mess.
In the Liu Family, there was dead silence. Everyone looked sad, solemn, or angry.
The head of the Liu Family, who was also Liu Huan's father, had a gloomy face. His eyes were filled with anger and killing intent.
There was no way to take revenge!
There was no way to take revenge directly!
After all, this person's ability was too terrifying. Even a powerful Titled Martial Artist like the Mountain Splitting Sword was not his match.
However, the grudge of his son's death was irreconcilable and must be avenged. As for Li Yang's warning, the furious Liu Family members had long forgotten about it.
"The Mountain Splitting Sword was a consecration of the Ming Hou Residence. He was highly regarded by the Ming Hou Residence. When the Ming Hou Residence finds out that he has been killed, he will definitely be furious and will not let this matter rest." Liu Ze's eyes shone with a sinister light as he spoke in a deep voice. He was Liu Huan's elder brother, the eldest son of the Liu Family.
Although Liu Huan was a playboy, he was still his biological younger brother. They were blood-related.
However, he had been killed in front of everyone in the Liu Family. This grudge must be avenged.
However, the Liu Family did not have the power to take revenge. After all, the two elite warriors in the family were no match for the other party.
They could only kill with a borrowed knife.
The Ming Hou Residence was a peerless sword.
"Send the Mountain Splitting Sword's body to the Ming Hou Residence in the royal city immediately," the head of the Liu Family said. He then looked at Liu Ze. "You'll handle this personally."
As the eldest son of the Liu Family, Liu Ze had been carefully groomed since he was young. He was very reliable when it came to handling matters. Everyone in the Liu Family trusted him.
"Alright." Liu Ze said in a deep voice. He immediately set off without delay. Every day his enemy lived was another day of suffering.
