A ten-thousand-fold return, and I, in my old age, will become a lapdog.

Chapter 26 Murder at the Door



Chapter 26 Murder at the Door

At noon on the second day, Jinshi City.

It is located in the northern part of Donglai Kingdom, about a thousand miles away from Piaomiao Sect, which is not far.

Xu Xiao leisurely rode his sword, and arrived outside Jinshi City in an hour or two.

The space storage contained three Purple Heaven Thunder Talismans with the power of the ninth level of the Nascent Soul stage, ensuring its safety.

Moreover, his Nanming Li Huo Sword is now in harmony with the Dao of Earthly Fire, making his combat power no less than before.

Jinshi City is a vast city, bustling with activity and prosperity.

Outside a grand mansion, two Xuanmo Sect disciples dressed in black blocked Xu Xiao's path.

"Old man! Get lost if you don't want to die!"

"The Lin family residence is now under the control of my Xuanmo Sect. No one is allowed to approach it!"

The two men had fierce and menacing expressions as they stared at Xu Xiao, exuding the aura of someone in the early stages of Core Formation.

These are all elite disciples of the Xuanmo Sect. There are seven or eight disciples of the same cultivation level who came, along with an elder leading the group.

This is all to ensure that the young master can marry Miss Lin in two days!

Xu Xiao looked at the two arrogant Xuanmo Sect disciples, a look of surprise flashing in his old eyes.

Are the people of the Xuanmo Sect really this arrogant now?

"What are you looking at!"

"Look again, and I'll gouge your eyes out!"

"You old codger, you've got one foot in the grave already, why aren't you getting out of here!"

The two Xuanmo Sect disciples looked down at the elderly Xu Xiao with arrogance, not uttering a single polite word.

Their Xuanmo Sect dominates the surrounding cities, and even the Donglai Kingdom can't do anything about them.

With the Demonic Sect as their backer, it's fair to say that the Xuanmo Sect, a third-rate sect, is extremely arrogant in the vicinity of Jinshi City.

"Aren't you going to get lost? I think you old geezer deserve a beating!"

One of the Xuanmo Sect disciples flew over and was about to kick Xu Xiao's old body away.

The latter's expression darkened, and in an instant, a ball of red and yellow fire appeared, flying towards the Xuanmo Sect disciple with a "poof".

A fist-sized flame touched the demonic sect disciple.

Instantly, the flames spread rapidly, and the Xuanmo Sect disciple was terrified, desperately trying to put out the fire!

But these red and yellow flames were like maggots clinging to bones, impossible to extinguish no matter how hard you tried; in fact, they were burning even more fiercely!

"Ah!!! Old man! Who are you?! Stop it!!"

The Xuanmo Sect disciple had become a human torch, engulfed in flames, and he screamed in terror.

Another Xuanmo Sect disciple's expression changed drastically upon seeing this.

They rushed forward to help, but it was to no avail. In less than ten breaths, the Xuanmo Sect disciple, who was engulfed in earth fire, was burned to a pile of black ash and fell to the ground.

"Who...who are you?!"

The remaining Xuanmo Sect disciples stared at Xu Xiao with terrified expressions. This white-haired old man seemed to be only at the Core Formation stage.

But how can their strength be so terrifying?!

He had never heard of or seen such terrifying fire magic before!

Why didn't you ask that earlier?

Xu Xiao shook his head, his eyes flashing coldly, and said, "It seems that the lack of discipline in recent years has given you the illusion that you are invincible."

"It's time for my Misty Sect to teach you a lesson."

When the Xuanmo Sect disciple heard the words "Piaomiao Sect," his eyes widened in shock.

The Misty Sect?!

The other party was actually from the Misty Sect!

Isn't the Misty Sect supposed to be detached from worldly affairs?

Could it be that he's going to make an enemy of the Xuanmo Sect just for that insignificant outer disciple?!

But he didn't have time to think it through.

The scorching red and yellow flames of the earth had already spread across his body.

Filled with extreme terror and screaming in agony, this Xuanmo Sect disciple followed in his footsteps and was also burned to ashes.

Lift your foot.

There was a loud bang.

The Lin family's gate was kicked open by Xu Xiao's old body.

Upon entering, in the main courtyard, several Xuanmo Sect disciples were sitting, eating meat and drinking wine.

The servants and maids in the mansion were serving him, all looking terrified and meekly.

"How did you get in?! Didn't the people outside stop you?!"

Several Xuanmo Sect disciples' expressions changed upon seeing Xu Xiao.

How did such an old man get in here?

Are those two junior brothers just sitting around doing nothing?!

"Old man! I'm talking to you! How did you get in here?! Don't you know that the Lin family mansion has been taken over by my Xuanmo Sect?!"

Several disciples stood up and walked towards Xu Xiao with unfriendly expressions.

The leader among them possessed the cultivation level of the late Core Formation stage and was glaring menacingly at the old man in front of him.

If the other party gave a bad answer, he was prepared to kill the old man on the spot.

But before the group could react...

With a single movement of his hand, Xu Xiao unleashed the Nanming Li Huo Sword, which transformed into a shooting star and hurtled towards the group.

As the disciple of Ji Xue, the Supreme Elder of the Misty Sect, he had been arrogant all his life.

He was very unhappy with these Xuanmo Sect members.

This has little to do with Lin Yan'er anymore.

If you're unhappy, just kill!

Before the Xuanmo Sect members could react, they saw the Nanming Lihuo Sword, like a fiery red meteor, shuttling back and forth in the main courtyard.

In just one or two breaths, the chests of these demonic disciples were pierced through.

It is incredibly fast and incredibly powerful.

Even with their protective magical artifacts, they were no match for the Nanming Fire Sword, which was empowered by the earth's fire.

This is the power of a ninth-level Nascent Soul cultivator!

"puff!"

The group of demonic disciples clutched their burning chests and coughed up a mouthful of blood.

They fell to the ground one after another, staring in horror at the old man in front of them.

"Who...who are you?!"

Flames began to spread across their chests, and these demonic disciples were burned to ashes in endless terror and despair.

"I've already told you everything, ask first."

Xu Xiao sheathed his sword and shook his head with a smile.

Even if you ask first, he will still kill you!

The scorching heat and the gruesome deaths of the Xuanmo Sect members terrified the servants and maids nearby!

They screamed frantically and fled for their lives!

"Killed!"

"Killed!!!"

At this moment, four figures emerged from the main hall ahead, startled.

Among them were an elderly man in a black robe, a middle-aged man, a beautiful woman, and Lin Yan'er, who was wearing a white dress.

When Lin Yan'er saw Xu Xiao's face outside the door, her youthful and pretty face instantly froze.

Elder Xu...?!

Elder Xu has arrived!

She froze on the spot.

In an instant, she understood the whole story. Her senior sister must have told Elder Xu about her!

At this moment, she was incredibly excited, as if she had grasped the last straw. Ignoring the man in black robes beside her, she ran straight towards Xu Xiao.

"Elder Xu!"

The other person's kind and warm smile kept replaying in her mind.

At that moment, tears welled up in her eyes!

She had no relatives in the Misty Sect, but now, Elder Xu is her family!

Elder Xu has come to save her!

"Hehe, young friend Lin, I already know about your matter."

Xu Xiao looked at Lin Yan'er, who was clinging to his arm and crying her eyes out, patted her head, and said kindly, "Come with me, go back to the sect and cultivate properly. No one will dare to bully you."

"Uh-huh!!"

Lin Yan'er gripped the other person's hand tightly; she was finally saved!

The middle-aged man and the beautiful woman in front of him looked at Xu Xiao with shining eyes.

This… Elder Xu… the other party must be an elder of the Misty Sect!!

The Misty Sect has come to rescue Yan'er!

Meanwhile, the old man in black robes beside him looked at the Xuanmo Sect disciples who had been burned to ashes on the ground.

His cold and ruthless old face immediately darkened.

Then, a massive aura of the Nascent Soul stage suddenly appeared, instantly enveloping Xu Xiao!
