Chapter 1025: The Anti-Traitor Conference (V)

"I've heard that Palace Master Xie's 'Dharma Finger' is extremely powerful and unrivaled in the world. I wonder... can it open our eyes today?" Seeing Qingfeng tightly pinching Xie Xuan's vital point, Gu Yue waited for an opportunity to add fuel to the fire, "I believe that with Palace Master Xie's martial arts, he only needs to exert a little of his strength to kill the lingering Liu Xunyi with one finger."

As soon as Gu Yue said this, he was immediately echoed by people around him.

Looking at the enthusiastic crowd, then at Gu Yue who looked provocatively, and then at Qing Feng who smiled without saying a word... Xie Xuan was confused and in a dilemma. He was speechless for a while, standing there in a daze, without responding for a long time.

"Perhaps... the Palace Master does not want to dirty his hands!"

Seeing Xie Xuan's hesitation, Ling Xiaoxiao rolled her eyes and came up with a plan. She gave a meaningful look to Yan Bugui beside her, who immediately understood what she meant, so she "stepped forward" and took the initiative to smooth things over for Xie Xuan.

However, as Yan Bugui stepped forward, he slowly drew out his sword and presented it to Xie Xuan "respectfully", suggesting: "How about... the Palace Master pierce the traitor Liu Xunyi's heart with his sword?"

"This……"

Yan Bugui's hypocritical "rescue" seemed to be a negotiation, but in fact it was a "forcing" move, completely blocking Xie Xuan's escape route. His face changed slightly, and his tangled eyes became even gloomier.

"Madam asked me to tell you that, considering your dedication to the Xianwang Mansion for more than 20 years..." Yan Bugui held the sword with both hands, his waist slightly bent, seemingly humble, but actually taking the opportunity to say a few "secret words" to Xie Xuan, which would not be easily noticed by outsiders. "As long as you are willing to kill Liu Xunyi, no matter what you did before, Madam will forgive you. Moreover, Madam will do her best to ensure your success in front of the leader of Qingfeng. This term, you will be the deputy leader of the Central Plains Wulin, and the next term... you will be the leader of the Central Plains Wulin."

Hearing this, Xie Xuan's eyes changed quietly. He stared at Yan Bugui in silence, not saying a word for a long time.

"You should know the current situation better than me. The leader of Qingfeng Alliance has the support of the imperial court above him and the support of the martial arts world below him. Anyone who opposes him will not have a good ending." Seeing that Xie Xuan was a little shaken, Yan Bugui was secretly delighted and hurriedly struck while the iron was hot, "As the saying goes, 'A man who knows the current situation is a hero.' Why do you have to give up your bright future for a dying man?"

"Yan Bugui, Yan Bugui..." After a long silence, Xie Xuan suddenly sighed with an inexplicable meaning. But he did not reach out to take the sword. Instead, he stepped forward, leaned forward slightly, and whispered in Yan Bugui's ear with a complicated tone, "You are indeed a loyal lackey of Qingfeng and Ling Xiaoxiao. Even now, you still want to deceive me for them. You are also dedicated to your work. The master of the mansion has a great reputation. No one can escape his eyes if they are loyal or treacherous. Even Liu Xunyi... The master of the mansion has never made a mistake. But he has made a mistake in you."

"you……"

"boom!"

"Forehead……"

Before he finished speaking, Xie Xuan, with an expressionless face, suddenly made a move. Without any warning, he poked Yan Bugui's lower abdomen with a finger, catching her off guard. Suddenly, she felt her dantian sinking, and she couldn't help but let out a muffled groan, and her body trembled. The robe at the back of her waist was instantly broken by the strong internal energy that penetrated her body.

"you you……"

"I did hesitate a little while ago because of our old friendship. But I was not hesitant about whether to kill Xunyi, but... whether to kill you."

"puff!"

Hearing Xie Xuan's complex tone filled with shame, anger, sadness, loss and helplessness, his internal organs were churning, and his facial features became more ferocious due to disordered qi and blood. He wanted to scold him, but unexpectedly his chest swelled, and his throat felt sweet. A stream of bright red blood mixed with broken internal organs gushed out of his mouth and nose like the Yellow River bursting its banks, splattering Xie Xuan with blood all over his body.

"Don't blame me for the sneak attack. It was an unfair victory. I just used the method you used against the Palace Master... to deal with you. Remember, when you see the Palace Master in the underworld, you must repent sincerely..."

"hiss!"

The sudden and drastic change undoubtedly caught everyone present by surprise.

For a moment, everyone was shocked and dumbfounded. The shocking "turn of events" and "sudden change of situation" were vividly played out before their eyes. It was unbelievable and hard to let go for a long time.

At this moment, the sky and the earth were bleak, the sun and the moon were frozen, and tens of thousands of people were in deep silence, holding their breath. Not only could they not even utter a scream, but even their breathing and heartbeats seemed to have disappeared. The grand scene was as silent as death, eerie and terrifying.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, the sword in Yan Bugui's hand tilted and fell. The crisp and harsh sound was like a thunderclap in a quiet street in the dead of night, like a towering tree falling down in the silent forest, or like a rainstorm of meteors welcoming a calm lake.

The sword not only fell on the bluestone square, but also struck everyone's heart, making the crowd, who seemed to be in a trance, suddenly wake up. After a brief look at each other, a noise like boiling water and gongs scattering beans arose, and the scene became chaotic and noisy.

"No!"

Watching Yan Bugui fall to the ground with his waist twisted and blood gushing out of his seven orifices, Ling Xiaoxiao, who had never expected this, finally broke free of her trance and gradually realized that what was happening before her eyes was not an illusion. With her heart burning and her heart broken, she screamed with fear, anger, and even despair. She ignored the people around her and struggled to get up, stumbling to the square, and fell on Yan Bugui, who was still breathing, and gently held Yan Bugui's cheek with her violently trembling hands.

For a moment, he was speechless, tears flowed like rain, he couldn't cry anymore, he was in so much pain that he wanted to die.

Xie Xuan dared to kill Yan Bugui in broad daylight, which was not only unexpected by Ling Xiaoxiao, but also by Qingfeng and Gu Yue. Even though they were close to Xie Xuan and Yan Bugui, they failed to stop them in time. It was not until the matter was done that they realized what was going on, but it was too late.

After all, with Xie Xuan's unfathomable martial arts, if he attacked someone who was distracted and completely unprepared with the determination to kill, no matter who that person was, he would surely die.

"I'm going to kill you...I'm going to kill you..."

When the last ray of life completely disappeared from Yan Bugui's eyes full of affection, the grief-stricken Ling Xiaoxiao grabbed the sword on the ground like a madman and stabbed at Xie Xuan mercilessly.

"Liu Zhong, Liu Yi, quickly help Madam Luo down!"

In the chaos, Gu Ri shouted in a deep voice, which immediately perked up the stunned Liu Zhong and Liu Yi. They rushed to the square and forcibly took the furious Ling Xiaoxiao aside.

Seeing this scene, the bewildered crowd became even more surprised, confused and curious about the current situation.

Xiao Zhirou, Teng Sanshi and others said nothing, their faces solemn. Jin Fuyu, Lu Tingxiang and others across from them also said nothing, but their expressions were relaxed, and they seemed to be in high spirits.

Looking at Xuanming, Yin Baimei, Zhongli Mu and others who shared the same stance as Qingfeng, they all had worried eyes and looked at each other, seeming a little confused.

Not far away, Liu Xunyi stared blankly at Yan Bugui's body, his expression was so complicated that it was beyond description. It seemed that Xie Xuan's action also surprised him.

"Thank you, Lord..."

Qing Feng slowly raised his right hand, and the surroundings gradually quieted down. He suppressed his inner rage, stared coldly at Xie Xuan who was lost, and asked word by word: "What did you just say?"

"Xie is the lord of the Xianwang Mansion, Yan Bugui is a disciple of the Xianwang Mansion, and I killed her... It seems that I don't need to explain to outsiders?"

"Master Xie, what you said is wrong!" Gu Yue refuted in a deep voice, "Even if Yan Bugui is a disciple of the Xianwang Mansion, you can't just kill him if you want. Human life is of paramount importance, otherwise where is the righteousness of the king? Where is the morality of the martial arts world? If everyone in the martial arts world is like Master Xie, who takes human life as he pleases, how can the Central Plains martial arts world help the needy and the drowned, eliminate evil and eliminate traitors? How can they sacrifice their lives for righteousness and die for the sake of righteousness? How can they uphold justice and uphold justice? We, the kind-hearted people, gathered here today to hold the "Anti-Traitor Conference", but wouldn't it turn into a "dance of demons"? The sky is above, the earth is below, and the martial arts leader and heroes of the world are here, how can we allow you to be violent and wanton and kill innocent people?"

"That's right!" Yin Baimei nodded heavily, "Master Yan Si is quite famous in the martial arts world, her death must not be unclear."

"Amitabha!" Xuanming put his hands together and spoke quietly, "Even ants try to survive, let alone a human life? Donor Xie suddenly attacked Donor Yan, which really puzzled us. I hope Donor Xie can give everyone a clear explanation, and also give Donor Yan who has passed away... a satisfactory explanation, so as to put an end to the cycle of revenge and karma."

“Since both Sect Master Yin and Abbot Xuanming believe that I should give an explanation for Yan Bugui’s death, then… I, Xie, would rather obey your orders.” Xie Xuan glanced at Yan Bugui’s body, then raised his head and chest, looked around, and said righteously, “I killed her not to take human life lightly, nor to kill innocent people indiscriminately, but… to clean up the mess for the Xianwang Mansion.”

"hiss!"

Xie Xuan's words once again caused an uproar among the crowd.

"Cleaning up the family" may be just a joke to ordinary people, but for martial arts sects that respect teachers and honor the teachings, it is definitely a serious crime comparable to "being unkind and unjust" and "being disloyal and unfilial".

"Cough cough!"

In the tense and strange atmosphere, Teng Sanshi coughed twice and asked meaningfully: "Why did Palace Master Xie say that killing Yan Bugui was to clean up the family? Could it be that... Yan Bugui had done something shameful to betray the Xianwang Mansion?"

Seeing Teng Sanshi helping Xie Xuan indirectly, Qingfeng's eyes suddenly turned cold and he subconsciously cast a sinister look at him.

Was it a coincidence? When Qingfeng looked at Teng Sanshi, Teng Sanshi also stared at him with a pair of fierce tiger eyes.

The moment their eyes met, a strong hostility rose rapidly in their hearts.

"Not bad!"

Xie Xuan shattered all of people's fantasies with a cold, emotionless answer: "What Yan Bugui did was more than just a disgrace. It was simply an evil act! A heinous act!"

"What... did she do?" Qin Ku's Adam's apple moved slightly, and he asked loudly and impatiently, expressing the thoughts of most people present.

"On the seventh night of the twelfth lunar month of the year before last, the 'leader of the Central Plains martial arts world' Luo Tianjin met with an unexpected accident at Prince Xian's mansion, and the geese did not return... He was one of the assassins!"
