Free Web NovelChapter 1689: Chapter 1775: The Upheaval at Jianxia Manor
"What incredible Qinggong!"
Zhu Yeqing was dumbfounded at that moment. He always thought his light body skills were divine. Although he lost to Su Xuan that day, he believed Su Xuan won with his mind. If it had been a real fight, he might not have lost.
At that time, the assassin saw Su Xuan’s light body skills and was truly impressed.
"Winner, give me a hand!"
Brother Meng shouted and rushed forward quickly, leveraging the momentum to leap, as Winner’s large sword whistled out. Brother Meng stepped onto the sword, rising high, and used his greatest power to shoot the Chasing Wind Sword forward.
"Buzz!"
The Chasing Wind Sword embedded one-third into the stone wall.
At that moment, Brother Meng also fell directly from the high sky. frёeweɓηovel.coɱ
Su Xuan was already stepping on the Chasing Wind Sword, accomplishing another ladder jump. Suddenly, he opened his arms and pulled Xue Mengxue, who had closed her eyes to meet death, into his embrace. His right hand wielding the Heroic Sword buzzed, automatically unsheathing, as Su Xuan thrust the sword directly into the stone wall, suspending his body in mid-air.
"Phew, phew..."
For a moment, Su Xuan sighed in relief. It was so dangerous, just a slight misstep. Had he been even a bit slower, Xue Mengxue would have been doomed.
This was a fall of over thirty meters — certainly not a joke. Even with Su Xuan’s considerable strength, such a height would be impossible to handle. The impact force was too great; this wasn’t some TV drama where you could catch people falling from such heights with magic.
So, before that kinetic force was generated, he had to catch her.
"Big Brother, Big Brother, you’re back!"
Hu Shulin was practically in tears, overwhelmed with gratitude.
Xue Mengxue opened her eyes to find herself already in Su Xuan’s arms, feeling somewhat unreal at that instant.
"Big Brother Su?"
"Silly girl, why are you doing this, risking your life!"
Su Xuan felt genuinely afraid at that moment. Just a little late, and Xue Mengxue would truly have been lost to him forever. That moment was perilous.
"Big Brother Su... you’re really not dead."
Seeing Su Xuan alive was overwhelming happiness for her, so much so that she fainted. But Xue Mengxue didn’t faint just from happiness; her body was too weak. Throughout these three months, worried and constantly threatened, holding on until today was a great feat. When she learned Su Xuan was alive, the extremity of joy and sorrow caused her to faint.
When Su Xuan and Xue Mengxue returned to the ground, Su Xuan felt some guilt towards Hu Shulin. Had Hu Shulin not recklessly rushed to catch him, he might have died today.
"Hu, thank goodness for you this time!"
Su Xuan patted Hu Shulin’s shoulder, expressing gratitude.
"Ahem... Big Brother, it’s good you’re back, it’s good!"
Hu Shulin looked extremely haggard, as if drained. Usually of good build, Hu Shulin appeared emaciated, surprising with such a change.
Just then, several vans screeched to a halt, surrounding Su Xuan.
Su Xuan frowned, thinking, damn, they’re really shaping up to send me a big gift just as I return!
"What’s going on here!"
Su Xuan looked at Hu Shulin, curious. To Su Xuan, Hu Shulin’s and Xue Mengxue’s presence seemed to indicate the situation wasn’t too dire.
"Big Brother, these people are from the Qingzhu Gang, the ones who’ve been pressing us hardest. Brothers have scattered, escaped. Hero Villa has already..."
Hu Shulin’s eyes reddened with his words, causing Su Xuan to twitch, thinking that someone truly was reckless enough to attack his Hero Villa.
"Qingzhu Gang, a new gang!"
Su Xuan sneered. When he left Miaojiang, the forces there had been mostly dealt with, falling apart like Peacock Manor, the Underworld, Elite Gathering. Su Xuan hadn’t expected the rise of the Qingzhu Gang.
"Hmm..."
Hu Shulin coughed, likely sickened up from overwork and stress in recent times. Meanwhile, three dozen lackeys descended from two vans, flamboyantly dressed, rather dim-witted. Upon seeing Hu Shulin, they sneered.
"Kid, today is our Boss’s deadline. Hand over the people, or you’re done in this world!"
The speaker, sporting an explosive hairstyle, radiated arrogance and hatred upon seeing Xue Mengxue in Su Xuan’s embrace.
"Kid, let go of our sister-in-law!"
This guy drew a Seven-Hole Blade, charging at Su Xuan.
"Ah!"
A miserable scream rang out as Su Xuan kicked the overly arrogant man down.
"If you want to die, pick a better day!"
Su Xuan waved his hand, his Heroic Sword disarming the man’s arm.
"Just no killing, take them all down!"
Su Xuan shouted. Immediately, Zhu Yeqing, Winner, Yang Yanlang, and Iron-Backed Bear charged like wolves into sheep, and Wang Tieniu and Brother Meng drew their longswords and joined in.
In moments, the thirty-plus crowd was beaten, writhing and shrieking on the ground.
These people never dreamed they’d face such formidable opponents.
"Return to Hero Villa!"
Su Xuan’s face showed a flash of killing aura. He’d been gone for mere six months, and Hero Villa suffered such a blow. frёewebηovel.cѳm
When Su Xuan and his group reached Hero Villa, the once grand manor was now a mess, its iron gate smashed. Su Xuan couldn’t imagine what Hero Villa had faced during this time, the sight unbearable.
Su Xuan’s heart blazed with anger.
