Lu An raised his head abruptly and looked up with his terrifying red eyes. In the next instant, he turned around and dashed into the mourning hall!
Bang!
The moment he stepped into the mourning hall, he heard a loud bang. The roof in the middle of the mourning hall was instantly shattered. Along with the broken tiles, three black-clothed men descended from the sky!
Madam Liu, who was kneeling on the ground, was shocked by the sound. However, she didn't even have time to raise her head. The three black-clothed men were too fast and were already above her head!
The three swords went straight for Madam Liu's head. With such momentum, she would definitely die if she was hit!
Bang!
Just as Madam Liu was about to raise her head, she suddenly felt a strong force on her waist. In the next instant, she was carried away. The speed was so fast that her waist was about to be broken. She only stopped after she was thrown twenty feet to the side!
"Are you okay?" Lu An let go and asked Madam Liu, who was still in shock.
Madam Liu was scared out of her wits. Her waist was injured just now. She raised her head with difficulty and was shocked to see three black-clothed men looking at her with swords. She couldn't help but tense up!
"They …"
"It's okay. I'll protect you." Lu An frowned and said, "Stay here and don't move. I'm afraid there's danger outside."
Madam Liu hurriedly nodded. She curled up into a ball and hid behind the pillar. She shivered and didn't dare to move.
The three black-clothed men stared at the young man in front of them. If it wasn't for this person, they would have succeeded just now. However, this young man was extremely fast. They weren't stupid and knew that he wasn't a good person.
"Who are you? We're only here to kill this woman. Please don't interfere, lest you get yourself into trouble! "One of the black-clothed men said in a low voice.
However, Lu An didn't say anything. Instead, he used his actions to answer them. Suddenly, two flames ignited on his palms, exuding an aura of destruction.
That day on the official road, Lu An didn't use the Ninth Heavens Sacred Flame because he was afraid of accidentally injuring his companions. Moreover, they were surrounded by mountains and forests. However, he didn't have such concerns now and could use the Ninth Heavens Sacred Flame without restraint.
Whoosh!
Lu An's figure flashed and instantly shot toward the three black-clothed men! His eyes were unusually bright in the dark night, scaring the three black-clothed men!
"Kill!"
The three of them shouted as they slashed at Lu An!
Three sabers attacked from three different directions, sealing off all of Lu An's paths of advance. It was obvious that the three of them had a tacit understanding of each other, and this was not the first time they had worked together to kill someone.
However, these three attacks were too ordinary for Lu An. Furthermore, among the three of them, only the middle one was an early stage Level 1 Heavenly Master. The other two were only Level 9 Heavenly Masters. They posed no threat to Lu An.
Lu An moved sideways to dodge the first two blades. At the same time, he waved his hands. In an instant, two bursts of flames shot out and struck the chests of the two men on his left and right. In an instant, the flames spread throughout the two men's bodies. They didn't even have time to scream before they were engulfed.
In a short span of three breaths, the two of them turned into a pile of ashes and fell to the ground. Not even their bones remained.
The Taoist Master in the middle used his saber aura to distance himself from Lu An. He looked at the ashes on the ground, and a hint of fear finally appeared in his eyes. He looked at the young man in disbelief. Even he couldn't kill these two people so easily!
The situation was not good!
He wasn't stupid. He immediately turned around and ran! However, how could Lu An let him go? He quickly got up and caught up with the man in an instant. He grabbed the man's ankle with one hand and pulled him back!
Bang!
Lu An ruthlessly punched the man's back. In an instant, the man was knocked unconscious and slammed to the ground. The ground even cracked from the impact!
Just as he was struggling to get up, a red flame appeared in front of him. The terrifying temperature from it made him quiet down. He didn't dare to move at all!
"Speak. Who sent you?" Lu An's voice was cold and unquestionable. "I won't ask a second time."
The man in black swallowed his saliva. He felt the flame getting closer and closer. The scorching temperature seemed to be melting his skin. He quickly shouted, "It's Liu Jinde! It's that woman, Liu Jinde, who sent me! "
Lu An frowned when he heard that. The red in his eyes became even more obvious.
"It's her. She told me that as long as I killed this mother and daughter, she would give me a hundred gold coins!" The man in black was afraid that Lu An wouldn't believe him, so he shouted again.
It really was Liu Jinde. This woman really didn't give up.
"Is there anyone else?" Lu An asked coldly.
"No! Just the three of us! " The man in black quickly said, "That woman said there was no Taoist Master. To be safe, I even brought two people to kill them. That woman lied to me. If I knew you were here, I wouldn't have come even if you beat me to death! "
This was the truth. The man in black hated Liu Jinde to death.
However, the man in black's words didn't gain Lu An's sympathy. He looked at the man in black coldly. He didn't kill him. Instead, he gave him a chop on the back of the man's neck, causing him to faint.
Getting up, Lu An looked back at the pillar and said loudly, "Madam Liu, it's safe now. Come out."
With that, Lu An personally walked over to help Madam Liu up from the ground. Looking at the man in black lying on the ground, Madam Liu was too afraid to go near him.
"You heard what she said just now. If we don't take the initiative to do something, Liu Jinde won't give up." At this time, Lu An's eyes had returned to normal. His voice was heavy as he said, "Not only him, I'm afraid that Liu Jinshang will also come to cause trouble."
"Then what should we do?" Madam Liu's heart trembled. Her voice was choked with sobs as she said, "It doesn't matter if I die, but Shuang 'er is still young. Nothing can happen to her …"
"That's why we have to do something. We can't let them do whatever they want." Lu An said in a low voice, "However, I don't know much about the situation in Qing Bei City. Why don't we call the accountant over to discuss countermeasures?"
"Alright." Madam Liu was so scared that she didn't have any opinions. Hearing Lu An's words, she could only nod.
Seeing this, Lu An sighed. He could only ask someone to clean up the ashes in front of the mourning hall. Then, he asked someone to call the accountant over to the mourning hall. When the accountant heard that an assassination had happened in his home, he was so angry that his eyebrows were about to fly up. His face turned red.
"How shameless! How shameless! How can there be such a shameless and despicable person in this world? For money, he would even kill his own brother's wife. Is he even human?! "The accountant cursed. He really couldn't take it anymore.
His brother's body had not even turned cold yet, and he actually made a move on his sister-in-law. How could people be so vicious?
But cursing was just cursing. It couldn't solve the problem. After cursing, the accountant calmed down and thought about it. No matter what, they couldn't be soft-hearted this time. If Liu Jinde could do such a thing, they must also kill him!
However, they didn't want to use assassination methods. They wanted to use other methods. For this reason, the accountant and Lu An discussed it in the mourning hall for an entire night.

The next day.
Early in the morning, in the Li Mansion in the western part of the city.
Liu Jinde didn't sleep all night. She kept pacing back and forth in the hall. Like her, Liu Jinshang also didn't sleep all night. He was also with his sister, frowning all night.
"Sister, it's already morning. Will something happen?" Liu Jinshang was very flustered. He looked up at Liu Jinde and asked.
"It's fine. It should be fine!" Liu Jinde stopped and said with a frown, "I've asked people to do a lot of things for me. They've never failed. This time will be no exception!"
"That's good." Liu Jinshang was slightly relieved. But he still said worriedly, "But why haven't they come back yet?"
"They may have encountered some mistakes." Liu Jinde frowned and said, "Wait a little longer. They should be back soon!"
Although she said that, Liu Jinde was even more worried. The people she asked would come to tell her when they were done, even if it was late at night. But now, there wasn't even a shadow. Could it be that something had really happened?
She looked at the door again. The door had been open all night. The whole road led to the street, but it had been empty until now. There were no shadows of the two ghosts.
Liu Jinde waited all night. She was annoyed. She sighed and turned to go to her seat. However, at this time, there was a sudden rush of horse hooves outside the door!
Liu Jinde was stunned. She quickly looked back and saw a man get off the horse and stride into the door. And this man, if not the killer she asked, who else could it be?
Liu Jinde was overjoyed when she saw him. She ran to him and asked loudly, "How did it go?!"
The man frowned and said loudly, "It's done!"
"Well done!" Liu Jinde almost cheered out loud when he heard what Wang Yao said.
Her voice was full of joy. Even Liu Jinshang, who was sitting in his seat, suddenly stood up and was full of energy!
"Let's go!" Liu Jinde turned to her brother and said loudly, "Let's go to the Liu Mansion again!"
