Chapter 1455: Chapter 1448: Leave No One Alive

”Next up is you, Blood Monk. Twenty years ago, because of a few words from Ji Xingyun, I spared you. I didn’t expect that today, twenty years later, I almost made a grave mistake. Today, I will correct that mistake and cut you down.”

After killing Jing Chen, Old Master Lu focused his gaze on the Blood Monk, his voice filled with unmistakable killing intent, the entire person exuded a murderous aura.

”Run!”

Seeing Old Master Lu’s gaze fall upon him, the Blood Monk felt a sudden chill rising from his heart. He dared not stay any longer, his figure flashed as he bolted toward the outside. He was utterly terrified of Old Master Lu and had no intention of opposing him.

”Time Flies Like a Blade, Second Form — Time is like a knife, cutting off the charm.”

Old Master Lu stood motionless in place, simply slashing down with the battle blade in his hand toward the Blood Monk.

In everyone’s eyes, it seemed like a brilliant blade of light split the heavens, followed by a flash of blade light disappearing without a trace, while the Blood Monk seemed fixed in mid-air, unable to move, frozen in a running stance.

”Such... such a fast blade, such a Time Flies Like a Blade, I really wish I could see the third form — Time Flies Like a Blade — its terrifying power, but unfortunately, I will not see it. Lu Tiankuang, you win this time.”

The Blood Monk let out a gurgling sound, then everyone heard a ripping sound. His entire body seemed to be torn apart by an invisible pair of hands, with a blood mark appearing in the center of his head, extending downwards, splitting him in two, dead beyond any doubt.

”What, how is this possible, how could this old undying Lu Tiankuang have such terrifying sword skills, Time Flies Like a Blade, is this the technique he used to charge into Beijing? This sword skill is too terrifying, even the Tang Family Ancestor might not withstand such a dreadful slash. Is Lu Tiankuang truly in the late stage of Mythical, or is he at the Earthly Immortal level?”

Even while entangled with Lu Chuan, Tang Fengxiao’s mind was fixated on the battle between Old Master Lu and the three martial monks. He knew very well that walking out of the Lu Family alive was extremely difficult, and the only chance of survival was for the martial monks to join forces and slay Old Master Lu. If they succeeded, the rest of the Lu Family wouldn’t be a threat, and the three late-stage Mythical experts could sweep the entire Lu Family.

But Tang Fengxiao couldn’t imagine Old Master Lu’s sword skill being so terrifying that one person and one blade managed to kill the three martial monks, even when they joined forces. No wonder when he came to Jiangnan, the Tang Family Ancestor repeatedly warned him that to destroy the Lu Family, it must be done after Old Master Lu’s death; otherwise, certain death awaited.

Initially, after reaching Jiangnan, he didn’t take this matter seriously, thinking Old Master Lu was nothing special. But now it seemed the Old Master of Lu Family was even more terrifying than the Tang Family Ancestor described, particularly with the blade technique Time Flies Like a Blade, terrifying to the extreme. Who could withstand such a blade that crosses space, as if slashing from the time itself?

”Escape, I can’t stay here any longer. If I stay, I will surely die. I must take this message back to the Tang Family, escape.”

With this thought, Tang Fengxiao had no intention of continuing to tangle with Lu Chuan. With a trembling heart, his arm moved, scattering poison towards Lu Chuan, forcing him to retreat. Without further delay, his figure leapt toward the outside of the Lu Family residence.

”Tang Fengxiao?”

Outside, as Lu Tianxing was walking with Yue Tingting toward the main hall, he saw a figure fleeing frantically toward the Lu Family’s boundary. Upon seeing who it was, he signaled Yue Tingting to wait where she was. Without any hesitation, his figure rose into the sky, his voice rolling like thunder, ”Tang Fengxiao, since you’re here, I think you should stay within the Lu Family. The scenery here is beautiful, the feng shui is good, just perfect for your burial ground.”

”Lu Tianxing, you dare stop me?”

Seeing Lu Tianxing blocking his path, a vicious look flashed in Tang Fengxiao’s eyes. Without any hesitation, he punched out, the moment his punch landed, powerful True Qi surged, carrying the strength to pierce through steel, pressing down on Lu Tianxing. At the same time, his other hand suddenly swept towards Lu Tianxing, a cloud of white powder instantly covering Lu Tianxing.

”Tang Fengxiao, does your Tang Family always resort to such despicable tactics? Sadly, they don’t work on me.”

Lu Tianxing laughed coldly, suddenly opened his mouth, and spat out a mouthful of True Qi.

”Whoosh!”

Instantly, a gale swept up, blowing the white powder away without a trace.

After doing this, Lu Tianxing did not pause, launching a palm directly, facing Tang Fengxiao’s punch. His palm strike was gentle, soft as if boneless.

”Lu Tianxing, if you think you can kill me, you’re delusional.”

Seeing Lu Tianxing actually meeting his blow, a conspiratorial smile flickered in Tang Fengxiao’s eyes. His arm turned, speeding faster towards Lu Tianxing.

But if at this moment anyone were to observe carefully, they would see that nestled between the gaps of Tang Fengxiao’s fist were several nearly invisible, fine hair-like needles clamped between his fingers, with only a slight portion exposed. If not scrutinized closely, they were almost undetectable, wrapped in True Qi, ensuring no one noticed the hidden items between Tang Fengxiao’s fingers.

If Lu Tianxing and Tang Fengxiao exchanged a palm strike, it would almost certainly be a deadly outcome. After all, the Tang Family’s poison is renowned across the land, and neutralizing it is no easy task.

Lu Tianxing looked at Tang Fengxiao, his eyes unchanging, and fiercely swung his palm toward Tang Fengxiao’s hand, as if he wanted to explode Tang Fengxiao’s fist with a single strike.

”Die!”

The killing intent in Tang Fengxiao’s eyes intensified. The few silver needles in his palm were soaked in the Tang Family’s most infamous Corrosive Bone Poison. Even a Late Stage of Mythical existence wouldn’t survive it, and the poison isn’t immediately lethal—it takes forty-nine days to fully manifest.

But before that, it flares up once each day, corroding bones and causing excruciating pain, making life worse than death. Without the Tang Family’s unique antidote, Lu Tianxing would surely die after forty-nine days. If Lu Tianxing were poisoned, even if he survived, given Old Master Lu’s fondness for Lu Tianxing, he would certainly act with caution, as only the Tang Family holds the antidote.

Unfortunately, before Tang Fengxiao could truly rejoice, Lu Tianxing’s hand, which was almost about to meet his, suddenly withdrew. Another hand slightly trembled, and an Iron Blood Battle Halberd, exuding a thick atmosphere of blood and iron, appeared and thrust forward ferociously.

”Pfft!”

Tang Fengxiao felt a sharp pain in his chest as the halberd unerringly pierced his heart, penetrating his entire being and lifting him effortlessly off the ground.

”This...how is this possible? How...how did you suddenly withdraw your hand?”

Tang Fengxiao, in disbelief, looked at Lu Tianxing, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth as his True Qi dissipated. The fine silver needles slid from his fingers, never touching the ground as Lu Tianxing summoned them with his arm, crushing them into dust with a burst of True Qi. Although he didn’t know exactly what those silver needles were, their use by Tang Fengxiao at such a critical moment indicated they were undoubtedly dangerous, leaving no reason to keep them.

”Nothing is impossible. Do you think I’m foolish enough to confront your Tang Family directly? I have no desire to die so soon. Your time has come.”

Glancing at the barely breathing Tang Fengxiao, Lu Tianxing’s Iron Blood Battle Halberd gave a slight tremor, and Tang Fengxiao’s entire body exploded into a rain of blood, dead beyond doubt.

”Oh no! Tang Fengxiao has been killed.”

”It’s over, over. The monk, the daoist, and the nun are all dead, and now Tang Fengxiao too. We should run!”

”Run, flee quickly! Otherwise, we’ll all die here today. Run, hurry!”

The scene of Old Master Lu slaying the monk, daoist, and nun had shocked the martial artists from the Yang and Tang Families. Witnessing Tang Fengxiao’s body burst into a rain of blood, they finally came to their senses, fleeing without hesitation, using True Qi to dash outside, unwilling to linger. They were indeed martial artists of the Yang and Tang Families, but not death soldiers, and had no obligation to die for them.

Moreover, Old Master Lu single-handedly slew the monk, the daoist, and the nun, while Lu Tianxing killed Tang Fengxiao. Liu Ang and Yang Tiansi were also captured. Staying here would be courting death.

”Trying to run? Do you think you can escape? Since you’ve come, leave your lives behind.”

Lu Tianxing’s eyes flashed with killing intent as he stepped heavily mid-air, emanating True Qi from his body, forming long spears.

”Go.”

With a movement of Lu Tianxing’s arm, the True Qi-formed spears flew out simultaneously, streaking through the sky as if guided, directly targeting the escaping martial artists.

”Ah!” ”Ah!” ”Ah!” ”Ah!”

Immediately, harrowing screams echoed in the air as the spears pierced through every fleeing martial artist from the Yang and Tang Families, pinning them to the ground, their True Qi penetrated. Some were not fatally hit, and as the spears pinned them to the ground, the agonizing screams were blood-curdling.

Without even glancing at those screaming in agony, Lu Tianxing’s figure flashed to Yue Tingting’s side. Stepping over the ruins, the two of them headed toward the Lu Family’s main hall.

”Lu Tianxing, you’re back. Are you hurt?”

In the Lu Family’s main hall, upon seeing Lu Tianxing enter from outside, Bai Zhiqing could no longer contain her emotions. She rushed out of the hall and threw herself into Lu Tianxing’s embrace, holding him tightly. When she saw Lu Tianxing being struck by Liu Ang’s attack, she felt as if her heart was breaking, wishing she could take his place.

Now, seeing Lu Tianxing return safely, Bai Zhiqing could no longer hold back her emotions, clinging to Lu Tianxing as if afraid he might disappear.
