Xu Guang looked at Yuan Feng's body, his expression carrying a hint of complexity.
Yuan Feng's behavior before his death was beyond his expectations.
He didn't know whether it was a true expression of emotion or if he knew he was going to die and wanted to use this boldness to gain Xu's recognition, thereby finding a hope for survival.
Perhaps he was really trapped in a predicament, some things were forced upon him, but it was not a reason to harm Xu Guang.
Xu Guang had never had any interactions with him, nor were there any conflicts of interest.
The hearts of Jianghu people are complex, who can truly know the reality?
All he could do was to eradicate the roots completely without showing unnecessary mercy, that was enough.
So…
He slowly stepped forward, the Earth Immortal Wandering Dragon Sword suddenly appeared in his hand, the sword fell...
The head dropped to the ground.
Yuan Feng, presumably, was truly dead.
Xu Guang turned around, taking off the Jade Cicada Robe, murmuring softly, "Du Bo, is it worth exchanging your life with the Jade Cicada Robe?"
...
The figure holding an umbrella slowly walked out of the Bell Tower.
As if nothing had ever happened.
Brushing past figures with varying expressions.
These people already knew his identity.
They were all waiting.
Waiting for the moment he leaves the city, then, it would be his day of death.
Lanshan City was just a newly constructed gathering place, without even city walls, relying only on a Feng Shui Grand Array to serve as a tool to monitor if anyone might sneak in secretly.
But with Xu Guang's proficiency in Feng Shui, combined with the Innate Qi within him, he could leave from anywhere.
He silently watched as the Jade Cicada Robe avatar holding an umbrella walked outside, behind him the figures dwindled into small black dots.
He sat on General Wei, gently stroking his body.
Vines extended from General Wei's shoulder, General Teng's innocent consciousness expressed intimacy towards Xu Guang.
It seemed to have a joy it was eager to share with them.
Like presenting a treasure, it produced a strange Spirit Fruit from the tip of a vine.
The Spirit Fruit appeared pure golden, with a very rich Spirit Charm.
"Is this an instinct you got after refining the Cold Water Tai Sui?"
Xu Guang asked.
General Teng didn't understand what he was saying, only thinking he wanted more, like a child straining hard, started producing results with all its strength.
Xu Guang was at a loss for words, stopping its actions.
"Let's research it after we go back."
Ah Wei also controlled General Teng to quiet down.
Xu Guang once again focused his gaze on the distance outside Lanshan City.
He was waiting, wanting to see just who Du Bo could find?
He did not wish to relive the humiliating escape from Taizhou, but due to various reasons, he was forced to once again go through such an incident.
But luckily…
He was not the same unarmed young lad of the past, now, he was the young power who had slain multiple Zhenrens, famous in Zouchuan Dao.
As the Jade Cicada Robe avatar left the city, streams of light tore through the sky, as many as five, with every person's aura as deep as an ocean abyss, leaving others without the courage to confront them.
"What's going on? Why are so many powerful figures coming out so aggressively?"
"Is there something interesting going on? The auction just ended, who would've thought there'd still be such excitement? So many powerful figures, are they looking to trouble someone?"
"That's Du Bo Zhenren from Dragon Gate, also a genius who had slain Fifth Grade as a Sixth Grade in his early years."
"And that, is General Jiang Hetong from the Jiang Family, in charge of Shouyang Prefecture's Wanlin Army!"
"All top-notch experts, who are they planning to kill with such a lineup!? Could it be, an expert from the Celestial Destiny Sect has appeared?"
These people weren't from a single force, the only thing that could unite them was the Celestial Destiny Sect, despised by the whole world.
...
On the Bell Tower, Liu Ruyan, who just finished with the auction, sat quietly in her room, looking at the tall figure of the girl not far away.
She had always been proud of her appearance, but in front of this woman, she found herself lacking her usual pride.
"Miss Ji, stay a while, it was a pleasure working with you today."
Ji Yanran had an expression of being flattered, Liu Ruyan was the legitimate daughter of the Liu Clan, a natural Alien Body, with almost a smooth path to breaking through the Fourth Grade, "Miss Liu, you're flattering me."
The two women wore smiles with feigned sincerity.
When suddenly the Guardian by Liu Ruyan's side came over to whisper a few words by her side.
The person used Qi Force to isolate, so Ji Yanran didn't hear.
However, she quickly learned what had happened.
Five Fifth-Grade Zhenrens above the Second Shedding, aggressively left the city, seemingly intending to act against someone.
Liu Ruyan showed a surprised expression, "Dragon Gate, Jiang Family? And the Underworld people?"
Ji Yanran knew more about Zouchuan Dao, and soon thought of someone.
"I bet they're going to kill Xu Guang."
"Xu Guang?" Liu Ruyan frowned, the name felt unfamiliar to her.
After all, she wasn't someone from Zouchuan Dao, the Jianghu has strong people emerging in each generation, the ones she knew were masters famous many years ago.
Ji Yanran smiled and explained.
"Xu Guang is no simple character, he used to be a disciple of Jiufeng Mountain, but he's outrageously bold, narrow-minded, and holds grudges, he killed Taiyi Alliance's Lu Chengze and Dragon Gate's Du Zhen while still in the Innate Realm, after entering Ghostly Land and breaking through to the Fifth Grade, he even dared to kill the Jiang Family's genius…"
Liu Ruyan looked astonished.
Such an unparalleled fierce person, even the lunatics in the Dark Tower wouldn't have such courage, would they?
In Zouchuan Dao's four major forces, he somehow managed to offend three of them with his ability.
"About Jiufeng Mountain..."
"Oh, he also killed Jiufeng Mountain's Inner Sect's number one Lin Zushan, and was expelled from Jiufeng Mountain, constantly hunted by Dragon Gate."
Saying this, a bit of excitement flickered in Ji Yanran's eyes, "However, Xu Guang is quite a character, Dragon Gate sent its Inner Sect Law Enforcement Elder and number one from the Inner Sect to confront Xu Guang, who killed them on the spot, and with the story from Jiufeng Mountain spreading, Xu Guang tore off his disguise completely, revealing his fangs.
