Chapter 51: A Close Call, a Bountiful Harvest (Please vote for me)

The floating bridge was destroyed, and the waters around the Flying Eagle Tower slowed down the escape of the disciples in the tower, but Ning Xuan’s speed was not slow.

He revealed his golden body and hunted everywhere.

He glanced at the opposite bank of the floating bridge.

“Young Master” Ma Yingxiao stood motionless.

However, when he killed a circle outside and then circled back, he found that the young master was running away.

He leaped over.

Ma Yingxiao raised his hand and threw a hidden weapon.

Ning Xuan raised his hand and pressed down, completely ignoring the hidden weapon that was shooting towards him like dust, and directly killed the person with a slap.

Ma Yingxiao did not have time to beg for mercy again, and Ning Xuan did not ask another question, “Why did you run away?”

Ning Xuan just sighed softly as he raised his bloody golden palm, “Sometimes, it’s really not easy for people to live well.”

Previously, Ma Changfeng and Ma Yingxiao had argued and broken up, and even said that they had severed their father-son relationship. In fact, they were protecting the latter as much as they could, and they were also leaving a way out for the Ma family.

Of course, Ma Yingxiao knew.

So, Ma Yingxiao was cooperating with the argument.

Previously, Ning Xuan had been humble and polite, which was why Ma Changfeng and Ma Yingxiao had decided to do so.

However, when Ning Xuan suddenly went berserk and started killing, Ma Yingxiao finally understood one thing: he could not live.

It was impossible for Ning Xuan not to kill him.

Or rather, if Ning Xuan was a truly qualified general, a general without the benevolence of a woman, then he had to kill him.

If he didn’t kill him, Ma Yingxiao would certainly feel lucky, but he would not be grateful for it, and would even look down on such a person.

A general should not tolerate a hidden danger with the “hatred of killing his father.”

Obviously, Ning Xuan did not have the benevolence of a woman, otherwise he would not have destroyed the entire Flying Eagle Tower.

Why did he want to destroy it?

The answer was very simple…

It was impossible for Ning Xuan to let these people in the tower go outside and gossip, saying things like “they surrendered to the Great General Qin’s residence, but were slaughtered by Ning Xuan, please ask the Great General to make a decision”…

These people were newly recruited by the Zhuangyuan Lang of the General’s residence, and the Zhuangyuan Lang had also taken away two core disciples of the Ma family for cultivation.

People like them were not even considered the periphery of the General’s residence.

If they were to make a fuss, not only would Ning Xuan feel troubled, but the Great General Qin’s residence would also be disgusted. The disgusted Great General Qin’s residence would basically tear their faces apart with Ning Xuan. After all, such a large force still had to have face.

So, Ning Xuan was not only solving his own trouble now, but also solving the trouble of the Great General Qin’s residence, so that everything would rot in the pot, and then it would be over.

After Ning Xuan slaughtered all the disciples of the Flying Eagle Tower, he plundered a little and then left.

He rode a horse when he came, because riding a horse could “let him keep a low profile and get along with ordinary people in the martial world.”

When he left, he naturally didn’t need it.

He carried a sack full of “spoils of war” and, like a gust of wind, crossed the mountains and headed for Wangyue Prefecture.

A few hours later, he returned to the General Ning’s residence.

At this time, the General’s residence was in a mess, with obvious signs of fighting. Many of the vermilion pillars had deep saber marks, and some servants were cleaning the bloodstains on the ground with horrified expressions.

As soon as Ning Xuan appeared, Chou Nu appeared.

Chou Nu’s face was pale, and he looked haggard from excessive consumption.

“Reporting to the General, we were attacked by the enemy at noon today, but it was a close call. The madam is fine.” As he spoke, he began to cough violently.

Ning Xuan said, “Let’s talk in the room.”

The two brothers quickly entered the room.

Chou Nu told the story in detail.

This afternoon, an uninvited guest suddenly came to the General’s residence.

The one who could appear without anyone knowing was naturally only a Heavenly Master.

That Heavenly Master was wearing the same ghost mask as Chou Nu, and even his body shape was similar to Chou Nu’s.

Afterwards, that Heavenly Master entered the deep residence as Chou Nu, and no one could recognize him.

This was very normal, because in the past, Chou Nu mostly entered and exited the deep residence by means of earth-遁 (dì dùn – earth escape). Even if there was a cut in front of the General’s residence, and there were strict guards inside the General’s residence, they could not and would not care about Chou Nu.

Wearing a ghost mask, wearing a purple robe, knowing earth-遁 (dì dùn – earth escape), and having the same body shape as Chou Nu, who else could it be but Chou Nu?

Fortunately, the real Chou Nu had not left, but was in the mansion.

When the real and fake Chou Nu met, a great battle was on the verge of breaking out.

Unexpectedly, the real Chou Nu was actually suppressed…

Because the fake Chou Nu’s strength was even stronger than his.

The real Chou Nu hurriedly called for people. When Ning Xuan left before, he had actually thought of following him, but… Ning Xuan had let him stay, because Ning Xuan felt that “since the Hehuan Sect might be real, then compared to the Ma family who widely accepted disciples, the Bai family who passed down the “Lingyan Small Group Art” in a single line was more important.” The other party might be luring the snake out of its hole, or it might be luring the tiger away from the mountain.

So, the real Chou Nu had secretly stayed behind and had arranged for many experts, such as Han Ba and others, to be here.

However, the fake Chou Nu was not to be trifled with either. He spoke to interfere, trying to make those people in the martial world unable to distinguish who was real and who was fake. Then, after he suppressed the real Chou Nu, he could take away Madam Jie.

The real Chou Nu also had his means, and he quickly confirmed his identity through some methods.

And at this time, the real Chou Nu heard a strange bell sound floating from the distant wind outside the wall.

The sound of ding-ling-ling, ding-ling-ling was very pleasant.

Then, an incredible scene appeared.

Many of the people in the martial world on his side suddenly had dazed eyes and began to pounce on the people beside them.

The General Ning’s residence suddenly became a fierce battlefield.

The final outcome was what Ning Xuan saw…

A narrow victory.

A very narrow victory.

“Then how did you win, Big Brother?” Ning Xuan did not hear a single chance of victory in Chou Nu’s words, because that bell was obviously a treasure, and the person who rang the bell was outside the wall. It was already not easy for Big Brother to block the fake Chou Nu and the “chaotic” people in the martial world under such circumstances. How could he possibly block the person outside?

Chou Nu said, “The person outside the wall did not show his face, and after fighting for a while, they suddenly left. Maybe… they had already set a time to attack the General’s residence, and when the time was up, they would retreat regardless of whether they succeeded or not.”

Ning Xuan nodded.

He understood this.

To dare to attack the General’s residence so openly was not a small matter. To put it more directly, it was equivalent to rebellion.

So the person who came was extremely cautious, and did not even dare to show his face, let alone stay for long.

“Big Brother has worked hard.”

“What about you?”

“Me…” Ning Xuan said, and at the same time, he took out the sack of spoils of war and took out a box larger than a human head from the middle.

This box occupied a large part of his sack.

And to be able to carry it over the mountains and ridges was obviously very important.

Chou Nu curiously looked over.

Ning Xuan opened the box, and the box was filled with crushed green jade. These green jades were irregular, but they seemed to have been broken from a whole.

Chou Nu observed for a moment and said, “Compared to these green jades, the jade pendant that the young master gave you is simply a broken stone.”

Then, he added, “These jade pendants seem to have been broken from a large seal. Here… here… they are all very smooth… no…”

For a moment, he was also a little confused.

Ning Xuan said, “Big Brother, no matter what it is, I know that these green jades are enough for us to cultivate a group of demonic plague martial artists.

Demonic plague martial artists are infected by the blood of demons, and they are most afraid of inner demons. And these green jades can help them suppress their inner demons. This is why the Flying Eagle Tower can attract many demonic plague martial artists to serve as offerings.

Now that all these green jades have fallen into our hands, the next time we encounter a similar sneak attack, the ones guarding our mansion will not be people from the martial world, but demonic plague martial artists.”

Chou Nu took the box with an excited expression and said, “This is a treasure.”

He was very happy that the Ning family could become stronger.

Ning Xuan said, “Big Brother, you should go and rest first. I want to be alone.”

Chou Nu nodded, and then went out with the big box in his arms.

He had consumed too much, and could not even use the earth-遁 (dì dùn – earth escape) technique.

After Chou Nu left, Ning Xuan took out a flying knife from the sack.

A strange flying knife that was not his.

This flying knife had a blue-gray cold light under the sunlight.

The blade was extremely thin, and the spine of the blade was slightly wide. There were three grooves on it, and the grooves were connected by a strange pattern.

No.

To be precise, there were four.

Because the last groove was still extending, and the place it led to was a mysterious bead.

Ning Xuan’s five fingers slightly clenched, and his qi and blood surged. He refined it in an instant.

Then, he tried to use it.

He felt that his qi and blood first entered the mysterious bead.

In an instant, the entire flying knife became transparent, and the bead absorbed all the light nearby.

Then, his qi and blood began to slowly enter the first groove, the second, the third…

When the three grooves were all full, this transparent flying knife exuded an indescribable power.

Ning Xuan instantly understood the function of this flying knife.

Each groove was a “charge,” and it was also equivalent to a full-strength strike from the person using the knife.

Three, was three times.

With this one strike, it was as if three of him had struck at the same time, and the power was superimposed, which was extremely terrifying.

But the disadvantage of this knife was that the strike was slow.

The master who had ambushed on the ninth floor of the Flying Eagle Tower before had obviously not had time to activate the third groove…

Ning Xuan put away the flying knife and casually gave it the name “Shadowless Three-Layered Saber.”

He already had two flying knife treasures.

But he was not very happy, because the “Shadowless Three-Layered Saber” was far stronger than the flying knife that Tang Chuan had given him.

An action against him had used two treasures of this quality.

The Shadowless Three-Layered Saber, and that mysterious bell…

Was the Great General Qin’s residence really so rich?
