Chapter 83: Chapter 82: Too Many Words, Want a Younger Brother_1
By the time Li Xuan had steadied himself, the giant spider had disappeared into thin air, dissolving into wisps of Yinsha and eerie green dots spinning rapidly away.
Meanwhile, the sneering voice of Demoness Zidie also reached his ears.
“This slash is rather fierce, but it’s actually hard on the eyes. Now I’m curious. Why would someone who has mastered ‘The Frozen Cold’ be content to be seen by the world as a foolish prodigal, a family heir with cultivation of only the third house level? What exactly do you mean by doing this, Li Xuan?”
Li Xuan turned his head immediately, looking towards where the demoness was. But he was only met with empty space. The graceful figure had already disappeared into thin air, leaving only her lingering voice around his ear.
“Be careful in the future! I’ll always have my eyes on you. I don’t care what you want to do, but if you dare to harm the common people, I will take your head——”
Li Xuan had a headache. This woman seemed to have deepened her misunderstanding of him, thinking that he was a master hiding his true strength. However, it seemed that this was exactly why he was able to save his life.
At the same time, Li Xuan felt the uncomfortable sensation in his chest intensify. This slash wasn’t without cost. The power of the red-clothed female ghost had noticeably increased his blade strength.

But at the same time, the Yinsha invading his body was so strong that it was almost overwhelming the talisman Master Chenghuang had given him.
“That’s amazing!”
Peng Fulai glanced around at the lingering spirits, then looked at Li Xuan in disbelief: “You beheaded that Eye-Stealing Demon with a single slash. Is that the Huandian Knife? How long have you been practicing? I feel that even a Wu cultivator with the fifth house level of cultivation and over ten years of sword practice can’t reach your level.”
Could it be that this person beside him was a prodigy in martial cultivation?
Yue Qianqian was also impressed, she said with deep emotion: “Youjiao is really reliable. I was terrified just now, I thought I was doomed. That slash was very impressive, it must have contained thirty percent of Xiaowei Jiang’s spirit.”
Jiang Hanyun was not only a Thunder Style Wu cultivator, but also a master of swordsmanship. Yue Qianqian once saw Jiang Hanyun’s swordsmanship, so she was deeply impressed.
The most reliable person in their team turned out to be their Youjiao.
Although Li Xuan was worrying about his lifespan, there was no change in his expression: “So, don’t you know how lucky you are to be able to serve under Li Xuan, the Divine Blade?”
He flicked his waist knife and stylishly sheathed it, then cast a sidelong glance at the group who were trying to sneak away on their horses: “Cui Hongan, stop! You’re coming with me to Liudao Division later. If you dare to run, it will be considered as resisting arrest, and your crime will become even worse.”
“On what grounds?” Cui Hongan looked back with a pale face: “I didn’t commit any crime. Li Xuan, you dare to abuse your power for personal revenge?”
He wished he could slap himself, why didn’t he hold back just now? He had already decided to keep a low profile for a while.
“Yeah! What crime did Brother Cui commit this time? You Liudao Division can’t arrest people without a reason.”
Cui Hongan’s group of friends also joined in the noise, but Li Xuan just scoffed and swept his eyes across them: “For disruptive behavior, interfering with case handling, and affecting crowd evacuation, he can be detained for several months. Do you also want to obstruct official duties and pay a visit with him? Or rather, for brotherhood, you want to help him resist arrest directly?”
The group immediately fell silent. Under Cui Hongan’s resentful eyes, they hurriedly rode away.
Xi Xuer hurriedly rode away towards the south street. She tightly gripped the reins and the whip in one hand, almost digging into her flesh with her nails. Yet her other hand was bloody, hidden in her sleeve.
Zhang Jin frowned and looked at Li Xuan with a puzzled gaze. How had this man’s swordsmanship and Martial Law become so powerful?
Only then did he notice Xi Xuer’s strangeness: “Xuer, what happened to your hand?”
Xi Xuer’s lips turned blue from pain and her eyes were filled with anger: “I was hit by someone, by that Demoness Zidie.”
“Demoness Zidie? Why would she hit you for no reason?” Zhang Jin was puzzled: “I heard that she doesn’t hurt people for no reason.”
“How would I know? Or maybe she’s Li Xuan’s mistress? Just now that woman was covering for Li Xuan, didn’t you see?”
Xi Xuer snorted, then heavily whipped her horse and rushed away from the alley entrance. Zhang Jin hurriedly followed: “Xuer, don’t worry, in at most half a month, a good brother of mine will be visiting Nanjing. He is a high-ranking disciple of the Quanzhen Sect, a real master——”

At this point, Li Xuan turned to look at Zhang Yue, who was frowning at a silver mini cylinder the size of a brush in his hand.
Li Xuan couldn’t help but ask: “What is that?”
“I picked it up from the ground. It’s one of the ‘Hansha Sheying’, a mechanical concealed weapon, and it’s very vicious, used specifically to break the Gang Qi of Wu cultivators. It doesn’t have much killing power itself, so it’s often poisoned. Some of them are so delicately made that there’s no trace left after.”
Zhang Yue pulled open that silver cylinder, and indeed found an icy needle inside, slender as a cow’s hair, exuding a deep blue sheen: “I saw it fell from Xi Xuer, it was done by that Demoness Zidie.”
Peng Fulai’s eyes became fierce: “This woman, I must kill her!”
He also thought that there must be some relationship between that Demoness Zidie and Li Xuan.
Li Xuan took the ice needle in his hand and looked at it carefully, then squinted his eyes.
This was not some deadly poison that could seal the throat upon contact with blood. Its effect was to paralyze the body, which could have been extremely dangerous under the circumstances just now. That Xi Xuer, she must have wanted him dead!
