Xu's family guard was fierce and fearless of death, which further enraged Shao Dongli and others. The long sword continued to swing down, wanting to slowly torture them.

  The martial artists surrounding them couldn't bear it anymore, they didn't expect this group of people to be so ruthless.

  "Stop!"

  Xu Yilin let out a loud shout, interrupting Shao Dongli.

  "I can be your hostage, they are all innocent, please don't hurt them again."

  After finishing speaking, he took out the jade token and walked out of the formation.

  "Master of the house, no!"

  Lan Zhi and others stepped forward, blocking Xu Yilin's path. "You absolutely cannot go out," they said. "The other party's intentions are unknown, and if you rashly go out, there is a possibility that you will be killed by them. As long as we hide within the formation, they won't be able to do anything to us."

  "Household master, if you have a three-long-and-two-short situation, what should we do!"

  Many staff members stood in a row, and Xu's family had finally made it to this point after much difficulty, and they couldn't afford any mistakes.

  "My life is a life, are their lives not lives too? Get out of my way."

  Xu Yilin made a gesture of washing his hair, startling them and pointing at those guards outside.

  Everyone's life is a gift from their parents, he doesn't want more innocent people to die because of him.

  The guards kneeling outside were choked with sobs, and the master had volunteered to be a hostage for their sake.

  "Master of the house, don't come out, I would rather die than be threatened by them."

  One of the guards suddenly stood up and rushed towards a stone pillar nearby, preferring to die rather than become a tool for Shaodongli to threaten their master.

  "In front of me, even death is a luxury you can't afford."

  An invisible wall of air pressed down, rendering the guard immobile, and he was crushed to the ground.

  "Bang!"

  Kneeling down with both legs, knee bones were all crushed, and could only lie on the ground.

  Hate!

  Xu Yilin hated himself for being powerless and unable to protect his own people. His eyes flowed with bloody tears as he walked out of the formation.

  With every step he took, his murderous intent grew thicker.

  Shao Dongli smiled and captured Xu Yilin. He immediately sent a message to Liu Wuxie, asking him to return to Canglang City and hand over the Huo Lingzhu.

  "Who are you and why did you lay hands on the Xu family?"

  Bi Gongyu appeared and stood at the gate of Xu's house, blocking Xu Yilin, preventing him from falling into their trap and losing control over his own life and death.

  This group of people was too unfamiliar, Bi Gongyu had never seen them before, why did they suddenly target the Xu family?

  "Who are you again? Get out of here!"

  Shao Dongli swung his long sword, and the powerful sword energy forced Bi Gongyu to retreat step by step. Shao Dongli was at the sixth level of the Washing Bone Realm, a difference of heaven and earth between them.

  "I am the master of Danbao Pavilion in Canglang City, Xu's family has always cooperated with our Danbao Pavilion, do you want to be an enemy of our Danbao Pavilion?"

  Bi Gongyu moved out of his own identity, hoping to calm them down, with the help of Dan Bao Ge's identity, making them afraid to be presumptuous.

  "If you were the master of the Imperial City's Danbao Pavilion, we might still be afraid of you. But you're just a small branch pavilion master, and yet you dare to block my way? Do you believe I can kill you right now?"

  These people are not to be underestimated and do not fear the Danbao Pavilion. The long sword suddenly stabbed towards Bi Gongyu, without saying a word, killing anyone in sight, regardless of their identity or status, no one dares to stop them.

  Bi Gongyu had no choice but to avoid it, drew out his own long sword, suddenly counterattacked and parried Sha Dongli's sword.

  "Clang!"

  Two different air waves surged in all directions, forming a wave of sound that was deafening. Countless people covered their ears, and even the deaf felt a hot wave rushing towards their eardrums.

  Rustle rustle rustle......

  Bi Gongyu retreated several dozen steps before barely managing to steady himself, a thread of fresh blood trickling from the corner of his mouth. He had been injured in just one move.

  "Thank you for your kindness, Governor Bi, but this is a matter of the Xu family, so let us handle it ourselves."

  Bi Gongyu wanted to continue taking action, but was stopped by Xu Yilin. This matter has nothing to do with Danbao Pavilion, there is no need to force a head out, this favor he accepted.

  Step by step, he walked towards Shao Dongli, staring death in the face. Suddenly, so many masters appeared, and it was impossible for one or two people to resist. Bi Gongyu had no choice but to take drastic action, with only a dead end ahead.

  He didn't want to implicate more people, if using himself alone could ensure everyone's safety, Xu Yilin thought it was worth it.

  The guards kneeling on the ground shouted loudly, asking the master to hurry back.

  Facing the dissuasion of the guards and attendants, Xu Yilin turned a deaf ear and stood opposite Shao Dongli.

  Bang!

  Without warning, Shao Dongli suddenly made his move, slapping a palm on Xu Yilin's chest.

  "Pffft......" Fresh blood sprayed wildly.

  It all happened so suddenly that everyone was caught off guard. Didn't they just say they were only taking hostages? How could they have made their move so abruptly?

  "I'm going all out against you!"

  Her husband was injured, Yang Zi suddenly rushed out, holding a long sword, slashing towards Shao Dongli, with a desperate fighting style.

  "Looking for death!"

  Sha Dongli was furious and slapped towards Lai. Yang Zi was only in the Pre-Heavenly realm and couldn't withstand it at all. Xu Yilin's body suddenly flew up to block the attack.

  "Boom!"

  Another palm, solidly hitting Xu Yilin's back, fresh blood staining his robe red.

  Shao Dongli's strength was well under control and he did not kill Xuyi Lin, but instead used the two of them to threaten Liu Wuxie, killing him would have been useless.

  The couple fell at the gate of Xu's house, with fresh blood flowing from the corner of Xu Yilin's mouth. The scene looked miserable and hopeless, with no room for resistance.

  "Homeowner..."

  All the servants and guards of the Xu family rushed out from the house, forming a circle around Xu Yilin, protecting him in the middle. Even if they die, they will die together.

  "Protect our homes, defend to the death!"

  Lan Zhi shouted loudly, and several hundred guards automatically formed a battle array.

  Before Liu Wuxie left, he left some knowledge of formation methods, letting Lan Zhixi ponder when he had nothing to do. After several months of hard study, he finally achieved some results in the way of formation methods and had no problem setting up a battle array.

  "You're looking for death? I'll help you achieve it!"

  Sha Dongli's body transformed into a residual shadow, charging into the crowd, his long sword like a python, rushing horizontally and vertically, the guards led by Lan Zhixing were constantly being knocked flying.

  Some had their arms and legs severed, while others were killed directly by the sword energy.

  Just one encounter, Xu's family guards suffered heavy casualties, with more than 20 people losing their lives.

  "Get back, all of you!"

  Xu Yilin struggled to look dignified, his face stern, all the guards retreated to one side, not daring to disobey the master's orders.

  Looking at the corpses on the ground, Xu Yilin's eyes became extremely calm, and he firmly remembered the faces of the seven people in his heart.

  "What grievances does our Xu family have with you all, why must you kill our clansmen?"

  Xu Yilin almost gritted his teeth and said, the reputation of the Xu family is well-known to all, they never do things that are difficult for others, let alone indiscriminately kill innocent people.

  Today's situation has caused many people to feel sad and regretful.

  "You're all going to die, I'll tell you, let you die with a clear conscience. Only by capturing you can we force Liu Wuxie to hand over the Fire Spirit Pearl, it's that simple."

  Sha Dongli's face revealed a hint of triumph, and he gave a signal with his eyes. Two men walked out from behind him and rushed towards Xue Yilin.

  They captured the couple, and their task was half completed, just waiting for Liu Wuxie to take the bait.

  Indeed, everyone suddenly understood.

  They couldn't do anything to Liu Wuxie, so they could only resort to harming his family members, such a despicable tactic.

  "So it was!"

  Xu Yilin understood, no wonder they wanted to capture him alive, it turned out that they were using the couple to force Wu Xie into surrender.

  Two strong men approached Xu Yilin, grabbed him and he could only let them slaughter him.

  "You'd better surrender quietly, no one can come and save you."

  Poplar emitted a sinister laugh, his big hand grabbed towards Xu Yilin at an incredibly fast speed.

  He was in the fifth stage of Washing Marrow Realm, extremely powerful, with sharp claw winds that easily tore open Xu Yilin's defense, and one hand grasped his shoulder.

  At this critical moment, a matchless knife aura slashed down through the air.

  "Crack!"

  Hu Yang's palm hadn't even had time to pull back when it burst open, and fresh blood sprayed onto Xu Yilin's clothes.

  "Ah!"

  A shrill cry of despair echoed through every corner, and another person's body rapidly retreated, and there was actually a master hiding on the side.

  Just as he was about to succeed, he was interrupted by someone, and Shao Dongli was very annoyed.

  "Who is it!"

  His gaze swept around in a circle, looking towards the location where the knife had slashed down. A man and a woman were approaching at lightning speed, their velocity reaching an extreme.

  "Quickly catch those two!"

  Seeing the approaching people, Shao Dongli let out a loud shout, prompting others to quickly take action and capture Xu Yilin and his wife, lest they retreat into the formation.

  It's not easy to get them out, if they go back in again, all efforts will be in vain.

  "Protect the homeowner!"

  At a word from the blue-robed official, several hundred guards prepared to use human wave tactics to stop them.

  "Get out of here!"

  A majestic figure emerged from the Washing Marrow Realm, six layers of aura bursting forth. With a single palm strike, the Xu family guards' corpses flew horizontally, and with another strike, over ten people were killed instantly. The scene was terrifying to the extreme.

  Xu family guards have lost more than 40 lives to defend their dignity, and Xu Yilin's face showed a hint of pain.

  The second wave charged forward, continuing to block them with corpses.

  This scene is worth singing and crying about!

  Two streaks of light flashed, blinked extremely, converged into a knife-like ocean, and fell from the sky.

  "Rumble, rumble, rumble..."

  The two strong men who rushed up were directly shaken out, giving Xu's family a chance to breathe.

  But at this time!

  A woman in white descended from the sky and landed in front of Xu Yilin, her beautiful eyes streaming with two lines of clear tears.

  "Father, mother!"

  She rushed into her parents' arms and saw that they were covered in injuries. In Xu Lingxue's beautiful eyes, a fierce killing intent flashed.

  She has never had murderous intentions since she was a child.

  But at this moment, she had an urge to kill.

  Her beautiful eyes swept over everyone present, gripping the cold light sword in her hand, ready to strike.

  A figure in blue appeared before Xu Lingxue, holding an evil blade, with a thread of crimson color released from his eyes.

  Fortunately, he rushed back in time, and his parents-in-law did not fall into their hands, otherwise the consequences would be unthinkable.

  He was a guard of the Xu family, who used his life to buy time for Liu Wuxie. If he had arrived one step later, even if he had rushed back, it would have been too late.

  "Willow, I didn't expect you to rush back to Canglang City!"

  Shao Dong's eyes narrowed slightly as he prepared to capture Xu Yilin alive, and then notify Liu Wuxie to return and suddenly descend from the sky, catching them off guard.

  "Hurt my father-in-law and mother-in-law, kill the Xu family guards, I want to use your blood to wash away the humiliation of the Xu family today."

  Liu Wuxie's tone was very calm, the more so, the more it represented that his inner killing intent had reached a boiling point at this moment, and he could erupt at any time.

  From Aiwan.
