C1 First Meeting

Yuantang.

As soon as night fell, a strong gust of wind blew over, causing the moonlight to disappear into the clouds.

Not long ago, this area was calm and tranquil, without the slightest forewarning that a storm was about to break.

Accompanying the appearance of a few vigorous and vicious figures, the shadows of swords and the gleam of blades could be seen.

This was a wasteland a few kilometers away from the Guangxin City. A group of men dressed in black were chasing after a child and an old man.

"Quick!" Fast! "Faster!"

This group of black-clothed men were extremely excited. As long as they sent the old and young to the Dead World, they would be able to obtain an extremely generous bounty.

In the Nine Abyss, there was a legend that the Dead World was a place where the Undead lived.

After receiving the bounty, the restaurant, gambling den, and the Spring Pavilion could all freely and unrestrainedly go about their business.

Thinking of this, their eyes flashed with a green light like that of a wolf's.

They were all assassins who had gone through all sorts of cruel training and had never failed in their missions.

Even if the identity they were chasing was not simple, they still felt that they had to get it.

"Ya!"

Following an explosive roar, the leading man in black clothes leapt up, then he blocked the path of the old man and the young.

The night was so dark, and he had been chasing for several days. It was time to end this chase.

Moreover, this was a piece of barren land. There was no power that would come out and obstruct their business.

"Why are you running? Are you all tired? " Just as he finished speaking, the leader, a man in black clothes, turned around and looked at the two of them.

In their eyes, he saw different expressions.

The old man's expression was tinged with fear, while the young man's expression was filled with rage.

Even though he was trapped in a dangerous situation, the teenager didn't seem to panic at all.

Although the youth was young, he had seen many storms before.

"You can't hurt my young master?" The elder took a step forward and placed the young master that the elder was talking about behind him.

In his heart, the young master's safety was more important than his own life.

At this moment, the fear in his expression had disappeared.

"If I'm not wrong, you should be Liao Heiye who came from Miejinhong, right?" The youth gently pushed the old man aside and walked forward.

He did not need the old man's protection. Instead, he needed to protect this old man.

"Oh? Young Master Xuan actually heard of my name before. This really surprises me." The leader, a man dressed in black, said with a smile.

Even if he felt that he had a bit of fame in Yuantang, he was still far from this Young Master Xuan.

Young Master Xuan was called Xuan Yi, and was the Young Master of the number one cultivation family in Yuantang. He was only seventeen or eighteen years old this year.

Looking at the entire Yuantang, who doesn't know about it?

Even in the distant kingdoms of East and West China, many people had heard of Xuan Yi's name.

Furthermore, not only did Xuan Yi come from a famous family, even his talent was one in a million.

Half a month ago, he wanted to be Xuan Yi's grandson, as long as Xuan Yi was willing to reward him with a few bones to gnaw on.

"Speak, who sent you to kill me?" Xuan Yi asked calmly.

"It can't be said that our industry has our own rules." Liao Heiye said.

"Then hurry up and make your move." Xuan Yi said.

"Alright!" Liao Heiye smirked and immediately waved the Cold Knife in his hand towards Xuan Yi's chest.

Since he was going to make a move, he had to go all out.

Although Xuan Yi was a teenager, his strength was not shallow.

"Clang!"

Xuan Yi took the opportunity to shake the Heaven and Earth Staff when he held it in his hand, instantly destroying Liao Heiye's attack.

Liao Heiye immediately pulled the distance between him and Xuan Yi. As the Young Master of Xuan Family, he thought that Xuan Yi was indeed very talented and had already entered the mortal world at such a young age.

When he attacked face to face, he did not get any advantage at all.

"Kill!"

At Liao Heiye's order, the other men in black clothing started to surround and attack Xuan Yi.

In order to complete the mission, he didn't care if it was a little despicable to bully the young with numbers.

If it really doesn't work, he was prepared to find an opportunity to ambush Xuan Yi.

"Bang!" "Clang!"

Facing the siege of several men in black clothing, Xuan Yi appeared to be quite adept at it.

The Heaven and Earth Staff in his hands was vigorous, and somewhat had the bearing of a superior grade nine star weapon.

And he was looking for an opportunity to take them down one by one and turn the tides.

Liao Heiye, who was watching everything from the side, narrowed his eyes. He suddenly understood why Xuan Yi had been running all this time.

Xuan Yi was clearly not afraid of them, and they were even like grass in his eyes.

The reason why he had run was actually to lure them here so that it would be convenient for him to take action.

This was a wasteland, and there were no signs of powerful forces nearby.

Xuan Yi was not a lamb to be slaughtered, but a young wolf!

"Ahh …"

Accompanied by a few screams, the black-clothed men that were besieging Xuan Yi before were all lying on the ground miserably.

At this moment, Liao Heiye's figure flashed and appeared behind the old man.

"Whoosh!"

The cold, bone-piercing blade was pressed against the old man's neck. Liao Heiye only needed to slightly shake his right hand and the old man would have to move his head.

Liao Heiye sneered. He wanted to see what else Xuan Yi could do.

Xuan Yi was really good at fighting. He didn't have the confidence to kill Xuan Yi while he was unharmed, so he chose to use this method to deal with Xuan Yi.

"Let go of Uncle Tong!" Xuan Yi roared.

"A life for a life, you know." Liao Heiye said with a smile.

"Young master, don't worry about me. I've long since gotten tired of living. Hurry up and leave!" The old man frowned and said.

"You are truly loyal to him." Liao Heiye praised sincerely.

Dong …

Xuan Yi frowned as his right hand loosened and the Heaven and Earth Staff cleanly fell to the ground.

In order to protect Uncle Tong's life, he did not hesitate at all.

Ever since the incident half a month ago, Uncle Tong had been accompanying him all the way.

In his eyes, Uncle Tong was no longer his servant, but his only family.

"Young master..." Sparkling hot tears rolled in Uncle Tong's eyes.

"Young Master Xuan, don't blame me for being merciless. You can only blame the potential customer who wanted to take your life for paying too high of a price!" Liao Heiye stared at Xuan Yi coldly and said.

"Bam!"

After knocking Uncle Tong out, Liao Heiye pulled Uncle Tong along as he walked quickly towards Xuan Yi.

Ye Zichen looked at Xuan Yi, who was forced to surrender, and felt a bit nervous.

"Wait!"

All of a sudden, Liao Heiye stopped walking towards Xuan Yi.

Almost at the same time, Xuan Yi and Liao Heiye looked over.

There was a young man standing on the mound of earth about ten steps away from them. He was about the same age as Xuan Yi.

Liao Heiye snickered. He thought about who it was that dared to disturb him. It turned out to be a ragged kid.

He was very thin, and if he peeled off the skin, he would be able to see a few bones.

A brat like him should have appeared on the streets of the cities and begged for money.

"Brat, you are courting death!" Liao Heiye shook the Cold Knife in his hand.

How could he, whose hands had been drenched in blood for years, mind killing one more person?

"You all … So many of you are bullying him. The youth standing on the mound clenched his trembling hands and said with a high voice.

Liao Heiye squinted his eyes. He never felt that he was anything.

"Kid, what's your name?" Liao Heiye asked curiously.

Such a brave youth was rarely seen in this world.

"My name is Formless Li." The youth standing on the mound said.

"Oh, so you're called Formless Li, this name is really special!" Liao Heiye sneered.

"Young man, you can leave. You're no match for him." Xuan Yi said to Li Mo.

"Hmph, none of you will be able to escape." Liao Heiye turned around and crooked his finger at Li Yuan. "Hurry up and come over. My knife wielding speed is surprisingly fast, I won't let you have the slightest bit of pain!"

Formless Li shook his head at Liao Heiye, then he took out the token at his waist and raised it high up.

When Liao Heiye saw the token in Li Wu's hand clearly, he felt a chill run down his spine.

This order badge had an eagle carved on it, capable of soaring through every corner of Yuantang!

"Spare us!"

Liao Heiye was so scared that he was trembling as he backed off. At this moment, he didn't even dare to look Li Yao's invisible eyes directly in the eye.

"Hurry up and get lost!" Li Jun shouted.

"Alright, get lost now..." Liao Heiye turned around and ran towards the end of the wasteland.
