CREAK!

A door swung open, and a head peered out. Seeing no one around, the door was promptly locked tight from the inside.

Fang Shaobin pushed a wheelchair, slowly making his way to the bedside. On the bed, a girl lay with her eyes closed, her cheeks flushed as though she were drunk. She was unconscious. It was Yang Qing.

Fang Shaobin gave a cold smile. He reached out and began to slowly unbutton Yang Qing's clothes. Fang Shaobin carelessly tossed her outer garment to the floor, revealing the underwear beneath. His breathing became rapid and his eyes slightly reddened, betraying a hint of viciousness.

Yang Qing was his arranged fiancée, but her repeated rejections had filled his heart with rage. Today, he had Yang Qing kidnapped. With the Yang Family's tacit approval, she was now completely his for the taking.

Fang Shaobin's fingers touched Yang Qing's underwear, slowly beginning to undo it and revealing a patch of snow-white skin.

PFFT!

Just as Fang Shaobin was about to undress Yang Qing, a sword tip pierced through his chest.

"Ugh..."

Fang Shaobin lowered his head slightly, staring at the sword sticking out of his chest. His eyes widened and his mouth fell agape, about to cry for help.

PFFT!

The sword tip swiftly withdrew, taking Fang Shaobin's life with it.

"The first one!"

Moonlight filled the sky and Sword Qi surged powerfully. Lin Mu, controlling the Yulong Sword with his Divine Soul, moved swiftly through the Fang Family Manor. After finishing off Fang Shaobin, he pressed on.

Ever since Fang Shaoning's return to Jiangling, he had been kept in the rear courtyard to recuperate. The entire Fang Family knew that Fang Shaoning had long since lost his mind. Ever since he brought back that news, Fang Shaoning had been stripped of all status within the family and barred from important matters.

At this moment, Fang Shaoning had just finished his medicine and lay in bed with vacant eyes, neurotically muttering something.

"Devil... don't kill me..."

"Devil... don't kill me..."

The servant taking care of Fang Shaoning paid no mind to the sounds coming from the room. It wasn't the first time Fang Shaoning had acted crazy; she had grown accustomed to it. Thankfully, the Fang Family paid well, and she just had to tend to his basic needs. So, the servant didn't take it seriously.

But Fang Shaoning's voice seemed to grow louder, and it sounded like he was struggling on the bed. Annoyed by the noise, the servant stood up, intending to warn him. As soon as she pushed the door open, a bright light flashed before her eyes.

The servant jumped in fright. She quickly looked up, her face instantly turning ashen, her eyes filled with terror. Because the Fang Shaoning lying on the bed—his head had been severed from his body.

"Ah!"

The servant collapsed to the floor with a thud, scrambling backward.

A shrill scream rang out through the entire Fang Family Manor, but strangely, the usually vigilant security guards seemed to have vanished. No one came over.

「...」

"Damn it, why can't I reach Lu Tong!"

Fang Tang paced back and forth in the room with an ugly expression, growing more and more uneasy. The incident with Feng Yang had already gone south, a clear sign the plan had failed. If it had been the Qin Corporation's doing, Fang Tang wouldn't have been worried at all. What he feared most was that the man hadn't died, and that Lin Wudi had never even lost the battle at Dragon Tiger Mountain!

Impossible! Lu Tong's information is always reliable; he wouldn't deceive me. Fang Tang comforted himself as he pushed the door open. No, I must find Lu Tong myself!

He needed confirmation. No sooner had Fang Tang stepped out than a bright light suddenly swooped down on him.

"Family Head, be careful!" a low shout came. A figure burst from the corner, throwing a punch.

"Ah!"

The bright light pierced straight through the fist, and blood dripped onto the ground. A muscular man in a tank top squatted on the floor, clutching his injured fist. His expression was grave as he stared at the dark green ancient sword suspended before him, his eyes filled with horror.

"A-Hui, what happened?" Fang Tang's expression changed dramatically as well. A-Hui was his most formidable personal bodyguard, yet he had just been injured by a sword. Moreover, there was only a sword, no wielder. What kind of ability is this?

"Family Head, don't come any closer!" A-Hui gritted his teeth against the severe pain in his hand and slowly stood up. Looking at the ancient sword, he said, "Stop hiding in the shadows! If you have any guts, come out and fight me!"

The ancient sword hung in the air, emanating a faint sword intent.

"Hmph!" A-Hui snorted coldly. "You charlatan, take my punch!"

Enraged, A-Hui threw another punch.

BUZZ!

The ancient sword, as if provoked, trembled, and a dazzling sword light howled forth.

PFFT!

Blood sprayed as A-Hui was sliced in two by the sword.

"A-Hui!" Fang Tang's pupils shrank, and he stumbled a few steps backward. "Who are you? Show yourself!" he yelled, glancing around, his heart filled with fear.

"Fang Tang, I told you I would take your life sooner or later. Today, I have come."

An aloof voice emanated from the ancient sword, causing Fang Tang's eyes to widen in disbelief. "Lin Mu, you're still alive? How could you possibly be alive!"

Didn't Lu Tong say Lin Mu was dead? How has he returned?

"Who said I was dead?" Lin Mu's voice was filled with mockery. "Did you really think Zhang Daoyun could kill me?"

"Could it be that you won?" Fang Tang cried out. "How is that possible? How could you possibly defeat Zhang Daoyun!"

"Nothing is impossible," Lin Mu said, his voice laced with murderous intent. "Today, your Fang Family will be erased from Jiangling."

"You dare!" Fang Tang roared furiously. "Lin Mu, so what if you're a Martial Arts Grandmaster? Do you really dare to kill me? Let me tell you, the Fang Family's connection to the Martial Alliance is beyond your imagination!"

"Heh, the Martial Alliance?" Lin Mu scoffed. "Do you know why I staged that little show at Dragon Tiger Mountain? It was to lure out all that trash and capture them in one fell swoop!"

As his words fell, the sword light howled, and Fang Tang was cut down with a single strike.

After killing Fang Tang, the Yulong Sword split into countless beams of light, which raced and flickered swiftly through the Fang Family Manor. In an instant, screams echoed one after another as the stench of blood shrouded the entire estate.

With that, the Jiangling Fang Family was eliminated.

The Yulong Sword ascended into the sky, heading straight for Coiling Dragon Bay. Lin Mu grabbed the sword, but the killing intent radiating from him did not diminish in the slightest.

"With the Fang Family wiped out, let's see who jumps out next," Lin Mu murmured, his lips curving into a cold arc.

In the battle at Dragon Tiger Mountain, I defeated Zhang Daoyun in a single move. If news of this spreads, it will surely cause an uproar, and I'll become a public enemy. The tallest tree catches the most wind.

Naturally, Lin Mu feared nothing. But thinking of the phone call from Han Xiaochuan, his lips revealed a cold smile.

"I, Lin Mu, have never cared about becoming an enemy of the entire world," he said indifferently as the Yulong Sword radiated a cold killing intent. "However, this is a good opportunity to lure out those flies hiding in the dark and eliminate them all at once."
