"This... How is that possible? "

The members of the Liang clan who had been following Xiao Dong were instantly stunned. Seeing Xiao Dong's corpse fall to the ground, they instinctively took two steps back. They swallowed a mouthful of saliva and their legs softened, almost falling to the ground.

Too cruel, his methods were too cruel. They had personally witnessed Xiao Dong being killed by the tree branch in Xiao Jiu's hand in a single move.

Xiao Jiu's expression was ice-cold, obviously not intending to let the two off. He knew that he shouldn't have done so. Xiao Dong and the rest shouldn't have looked at Wu Qingcheng with that kind of gaze.

In this lifetime, Wu Qingcheng would become his absolute reverse scale, a reverse scale that no one else would be able to touch.

Xiao Jiu turned around and rolled up his sleeves. He removed the branch from Xiao Dong's throat, afraid that blood would stain his sleeves.

"Xiao Jiu, you …"

Xiao Yu'er was completely stunned and couldn't react for a long time. Her younger brother, normally gentle and refined, had already killed Xiao Dong in a single move. However, during the entire process, she didn't notice Xiao Chen using any profound energy.

"Sister, you don't need to use mystical Qi to kill people. Killing people is an exquisite art, it is a way to use trickery. We must take unexpected, surprise, surprise, and flick at a thousand pounds in order to achieve the goal of an amazing victory, to make the weak win over the strong!"

Seemingly having guessed the doubts in Xiao Yu'er's heart, Xiao Jiu confidently said as he picked up the branch and walked towards the remaining two people. The other two were so scared that their legs had gone limp. At this moment, they were lying paralyzed on the ground, continuously backing up, and their expressions were extremely unsightly.

They originally thought that bringing out a deity like Xiao Cheng would make this good-for-nothing young master feel fear, but now they discovered that they were wrong. He was wrong from the start. Who would have thought that the young master, who did not have a single strand of profound energy on him, would actually kill Xiao Dong in an instant?

At this moment, in their eyes, Xiao Jiu was just a demon that killed people without blinking. How was he some good-for-nothing young master? He was clearly a demon that killed people. To actually kill Xiao Dong without even using the slightest bit of his profound energy was already too much of a problem.

"Fight back, or else I'll be too embarrassed to do it!"

Xiao Jiu's eyes were cold as he looked at the two of them. When the two of them heard this, they almost fainted. He was so scared that his legs couldn't even go soft. How could he retaliate? He pleaded with the old master not to torture him like this.

"You aren't going to fight back, right? Then I won't be polite either!"

A trace of coldness flashed across Xiao Jiu's eyes. He activated his footwork once more and his body appeared behind the two of them. The two of them wanted to escape at the last moment, but it was clear that they could not escape Xiao Jiu.

He only felt a wave of ice-cold feeling brush past his throat, and he felt a boiling liquid flowing down his throat.

Xiao Yu'er's mouth was wide open at this moment. It wasn't until she walked back in front of the two of them that she threw away the tree branches in her hands and collapsed onto the ground.

"This... How is that possible? "

Xiao Yu'er was stunned and didn't know what to say. When did her little brother become so powerful? Furthermore, in the entire process, he did not use the slightest bit of mystical Qi. How did he do it?

In an instant, many questions arose in Xiao Yu'er's heart.

"Xiao Jiu, are you able to cultivate now?"

After a long while, Xiao Yu'er finally managed to squeeze out a complete sentence. Although her question was a little unreasonable, she still asked. Xiao Chen clearly didn't use any profound energy, so killing these three people was not necessarily related to whether he could cultivate or not.

"Not at all! Didn't I say that killing people is a way to take advantage of others? I was just using some tricks! "

Xiao Jiu shook his head and walked over, picking up Wu Qingcheng. Even now, the little girl was still covering her eyes, pretending as if she didn't see anything.

She had clearly seen everything, yet she had pretended not to see anything. Xiao Jiu could only helplessly shake his head.

"No... I mean, how did you kill them? "

Xiao Yu'er felt that her brain wasn't working well. Even with her strength, she still couldn't kill Xiao Dong in one move, but Xiao Jiu did it. Furthermore, he did it while he was prepared, and killed Xiao Dong in front of her.

"I already said, it's a trick!" Here, the smell of blood is heavy. I'll have to trouble you to inform someone to deal with it! "

Xiao Chen picked up the little girl and began to walk out of the forest. Killing Xiao Dong didn't seem to have any effect on him.

"I will get someone to take care of this matter. Although Xiao Dong's surname is Xiao, he isn't actually surnamed Xiao, but his talent is not bad. If you kill him, no one will blame you. However, he belongs to Xiao Cheng … "

When Xiao Yu'er heard this, she calmed herself down and said this. When she spoke of Xiao Cheng, her eyebrows creased, showing a trace of worry.

"Little Jiu, wait!"

"Sis, ask again, and I have the same answer. This is something I read about in a book, about assassination, but I didn't think it would really be useful!" As for Xiao Cheng, I do not place him in my eyes at all. "

Xiao Jiu felt very helpless. Could it be that he could tell you that in his previous life, I was the world's number one assassin? Even if he was currently unable to cultivate profound energy, he would not need to fear anyone below the Core Formation stage if he were to only rely on this assassin technique.

More importantly, there was still the ancient sword of Sky Law in his body. Although the ancient Heaven Punisher Sword was destroyed by him at the last moment, the sword spirit still remained in his body.

With the Sword Soul's support, it would not even be a problem to break through a martial practitioner's armor, let alone a martial practitioner's protective profound energy.

"Little Jiu, wait a moment, Father wants you to go to the family hall!"

Xiao Jiu walked forward, and she hurriedly followed him.

"What's the matter?"

Xiao Jiu paused in his steps and asked.

"Second Uncle, Third Uncle, they're back!"

Xiao Yu'er's expression was grave.

It is said that Mu Qingxue has already broken through to the fifth level of Qi Condensation and has been designated as an inner courtyard disciple by the Blue Luan Academy, one of the Empire's Five Great Academies. Recently, news has spread around the Great Desolate City that Mu Qingxue is going to withdraw from your marriage. If there were no mishaps, the Mu Clan's visit this time was to end the engagement. They should have teamed up to force their father! "

Xiao Yu'er took a deep breath and continued. The situation was very serious. If their father could not withstand the pressure, then they would be forced to leave.

In the Green Wood City's Xiao Clan, the clan head's background was weak, the only son of the family head was born a trash, and at eighteen years of age, he was still unable to cultivate profound energy. The other branches of the Xiao family's second master, the third master, was very ambitious. He already wanted to take the position of the clan's head and take his place.

Coming back now was obviously to force his father to abdicate.

"It's good that you're back. Aren't I looking forward to their return day and night?"

With his back facing Xiao Yu'er, Xiao Jiu's eyes slightly focused as he spoke in a somewhat deep tone. Xiao Yu'er had long since gotten used to these words of Xiao Jiu's. Although this little brother of hers was unable to cultivate, he was always neither humble nor haughty in front of others. Everything seemed to be as light as the clouds in his eyes.

Sometimes, in front of him, she even felt that she wasn't facing her own brother, but an old monster that had lived for tens of thousands of years. As his sister, she couldn't understand his thoughts.

What she didn't understand was that even though her little brother didn't have any talent in cultivation, in terms of cultivation experience and skills, even the teachers of the Martial Arts Academy were no match for him.

"They asked to see you. If you don't want to go, then don't go!"

Xiao Yu'er's delicate eyebrows creased as she asked in a worried tone. She knew that Xiao Jiu knew that the crux of the clan's internal strife lay with him.

He was a piece of trash, so the branch family would use his inability to cultivate to force his father to abdicate.

There are three ways to not be filial, and no future will be great. How big of a crime is this?

In the world of the Nine Realms, strength was respected, and birth was trash. It was the same as having no future!

"Why not? I've been waiting for this day!"

Xiao Jiu turned his head and smiled brightly. It seemed that the matter of Second and Third Uncle forcing his father to his death was not a matter of life and death, but something worth celebrating.

"Is this the day you were waiting for? "What do you mean?"

Hearing this, Xiao Yu'er was at a loss. What could Xiao Jiu do if he didn't have any cultivation on him?

"Since they've come back today, we should at least give them a heavy blow and put an end to their thoughts!"

Xiao Jiu's brows slightly creased as he spoke.

"Little Jiu, what are you doing? You can't be impulsive! You have no cultivation at all, they're here for you. This way, you'd better not go over to father. I'll go tell him! "

Hearing this, Xiao Yu'er became anxious and hurriedly held Xiao Jiu's hand. As far as she was concerned, Xiao Jiu had no cultivation. It was useless even if he went. The reason they dared to be so arrogant was because they knew that Xiao Chen had no cultivation.

Xiao Jiu was trash. This reason could become the most powerful and forceful reason for them to force their way through the palace. Towards a piece of trash, even if they killed Xiao Jiu on the spot, the clan's elders would not say anything because no one would care about the life or death of a piece of trash, even if that piece of trash was the nominal Young Patriarch.

"Sis, don't worry. I will take care of it." You, mother, and father have borne a great deal for me all these years. This year, Xiao Jiu is now eighteen years old, and should stand up to shoulder the responsibilities that he should shoulder! "

Xiao Jiu lightly patted Xiao Yu'er's shoulder as he consoled her. Although Xiao Jiu wasn't older than Xiao Yu'er, he was at least half a head taller than her.

At this moment, Xiao Yu'er raised her head to look at the youth under the setting sun. Her thin and tall body stood like a pillar. Her bright face carried a confident smile. A warm feeling flowed through her heart.

He had really grown up, but did he really have the ability to deal with those people who were like wolves and tigers?

Xiao Yu'er wanted to call out to Xiao Jiu, but he had already left the Xiao family's meeting hall with Wu Qingcheng in his arms.
