Strength is the way of the king
This jade stone was only the size of a fist and was round in shape. On the surface of the jade stone, there were seven different colored halos. The halos reflected each other and actually emitted a faint starlight, which gave off an indescribable feeling of mystery.
This was the Seven Star Spirit Accumulation Stone!
Qin Xiu studied the Seven Star Spirit Accumulation Stone carefully. After a while, he replied, "Sword Master Luo Yun, I don't recognize this jade. I've never seen it before."
"Hmm?"
Chu Xingyun's eyes darkened. A majestic pressure bloomed and forced Qin Xiu to his knees. His entire body trembled like a withered tree in a storm, ready to break at any time.
"Sword Master Luo Yun, I really don't recognize this item. If I'm lying, I'm willing to be struck by lightning!" Qin Xiu felt uncomfortable all over. He kept kowtowing and kowtowing as he spoke.
At this moment, a light flashed in his eyes as if he had grasped the last straw. He said excitedly, "If Sword Master Luo Yun doesn't mind, I can ask my father to come here. He's a sword master and has seen many things. He'll definitely recognize this item."
Chu Xingyun stared coldly into Qin Xiu's eyes. Suddenly, he retracted his gaze and said slowly, "Since you don't recognize it, then forget it. I won't make things difficult for you."
After he finished speaking, the oppressive force disappeared. Qin Xiu's entire body almost went limp on the ground as he gasped for breath.
"Luo Yun, I'll definitely take revenge for this. Tomorrow will be the day you die!" The killing intent in Qin Xiu's heart had already condensed to the extreme. Even his eyes began to flicker with a murderous light.
But on the surface, he maintained a fawning appearance. He knelt on the ground and shouted, "Thank you for your mercy, Sword Master Luo Yun. I won't let you down."
As he spoke, he lowered his head again. Unexpectedly, he felt a chill on his neck.
Immediately after, Qin Xiu felt as if the world was spinning. In his field of vision, an extremely familiar figure appeared. This figure wore a gray robe and had a blood sword at his waist. However, this figure did not have a head and was crazily spitting out scarlet blood.
"That seems to be my body …"
A horrifying thought suddenly appeared in Qin Xiu's mind. Then, his vision turned black and he lost all consciousness.
Poof!
The headless corpse fell to the ground. Blood was still gushing out, staining the ground red. The smell of blood was pungent.
Qin Xiu was dead.
Lu Qingyao, who was standing not far away, was so frightened by this sudden scene that her face turned pale.
She was not afraid of killing. In fact, she had an innate fanaticism for killing.
However, everything happened too quickly!
She only saw Qin Xiu kowtow a few times without saying anything. Then, he was killed by Chu Xingyun. Even after Qin Xiu died, a trace of consciousness remained in his mind.
Lu Qingyao took a deep breath and came back to her senses. As soon as she raised her head, she saw Chu Xingyun slowly walking towards her.
At this moment, all the hair on her body stood on end. A trace of fear rose in her heart. She couldn't see through the handsome young man in front of her at all.
Patter patter patter …
The distance between the two was getting closer and closer.
When the two figures crossed each other, Chu Xingyun passed by calmly.
At this moment, a magnetic voice slowly reached Lu Qingyao's ears. "From today onwards, don't pretend to be the Shadow Swordsman, and don't kill again."
Lu Qingyao's eyes narrowed. Her body was struck by lightning and she was rooted to the ground.
"If you want to protect others, what you need is never assassination, but powerful strength. As long as you climb to the peak of martial arts, not to mention greedy people, even this vast world will have to crawl at your feet."
"Remember, in this martial arts world where the strong prey on the weak, only strength is the way of the king!"
"Buzz!"
Lu Qingyao's heart trembled slightly. She seemed to understand a lot of things at this moment.
She suddenly turned her head and stared at Chu Xingyun's back. Her silver teeth gently tapped her red lips. She seemed to be struggling. Finally, she said, "Please wait!"
After he finished speaking, Chu Xingyun immediately stopped and turned his head around. There was no longer any killing intent in his pitch-black eyes. They were very calm, without the slightest trace of emotion.
"You, why did you kill Qin Xiu?" Lu Qingxuan glanced at Qin Xiu's body and summoned up her courage to ask.
"Is this very important?" Chu Xingyun's expression did not change as he asked back.
Lu Qingyao was speechless for a moment, but her beautiful eyebrows were tightly knitted. She said weakly, "But Qin Xiu's death will not ease your predicament. It will even provoke the anger of the internal affairs, especially Qin Qiu Mo. He may kill you!"
Qin Qiumo originally had two sons, Qin Xiu and Qin Kong.
Qin Kong died in Ancient Sword City.
And now, Qin Xiu was also dead.
The twins were dead. Qin Qiumo had no descendants. Such anger could almost devour all of his rationality!
"Maybe, but I don't care." Chu Xingyun paused. A smile appeared on his face, revealing a relaxed and casual expression. It was deeply imprinted in Lu Qingyao's blood-red eyes.
It was not until Chu Xingyun left that she woke up from her dazed state. The large space was dead silent. Only the sound of her rapid heartbeat could be heard.
At this time, the night had faded. On the other side of the sky, there was already a white belly.
The slightly cold night wind swept by, blowing Chu Xingyun's robe, making his perfect face look even more resolute and handsome.
"Twin sisters. In order to protect her younger sister, the older sister did not hesitate to become Chang Chixiao's disciple. In order to protect her older sister, the younger sister was willing to turn into a bloody killer and slaughter more than 20 people. This is really interesting."
Recalling Lu Qingyao's words, Chu Xingyun's lips unconsciously revealed a faint smile.
The relationship between these two sisters was moving!
It was also because of this that Chu Xingyun said those words before leaving, hoping to enlighten Lu Qingyao and let her walk on the right path. He could feel that Lu Qingyao's talent was very strong, not inferior to Lu Qingxuan's.
"But …"
Suddenly, Chu Xingyun frowned and said with disappointment, "I originally thought that I would be able to obtain some clues about what happened back then from Qin Xiu's mouth. However, it seems that this matter is extremely secretive. Even Qin Qiu Mo's son doesn't know about it."
"Judging from this situation, if I want to find clues, I can only start with Chang Mingyang!"
Chu Xingyun paused for a moment. Soon, a cold light bloomed in his eyes.
Whoosh!
A strange black light spread out from the Black Hole Heavy Sword. An endless whirlpool seemed to appear in the void in front of him. After Chu Xingyun came into contact with the whirlpool, his figure disappeared.
Chu Xingyun entered the black state and rushed in the direction of the Sword Master Peak. No one could detect his aura. They all thought that he was still in seclusion at the Sword Master Peak and had not taken a step out.
