Xiao Cheng Xuan, accompanied by Yan Liu Li, spent the whole night practicing the Nine-Layered Thunder Blade.
He came to a conclusion.
It was smooth, soft, slippery, and powerful!
Truly worthy of being the Nine-Layered Thunder Blade.
The next morning, the exhausted Yan Liu Li still served Xiao Cheng Xuan with bird-like affection as he dressed and washed.
After receiving a promise from Xiao Cheng Xuan that he would "abduct the bride on the day of the wedding,"
Yan Liu Li hurriedly left.
She could not stay away for too long, or it would affect the Prince's control of the Southwest region.
As Xiao Cheng Xuan walked out of the inn, Ye Yu, clad in a black robe, appeared beside him like a ghost.
His wife had been settled, and from now on, he could finally become the "Blood Shadow Sword" in the Prince's hand without any worries!
“Let’s go. Come with me and let's see. I've sensed many interesting presences in Chai Sang City.”
Xiao Cheng Xuan knew.
Ever since the news of Gu Luo Li's death, the head of the Gu family, spread,
The Dark River had set its sights on the Gu family, currently headed by Gu Jian Men, one of the eight young masters of North Li.
They aimed to control the Southwest region!
And the reason why the Yan family could force the Gu family into such a marriage, besides the Gu family's third and fifth young masters wanting to seize the position of head of the family and gain power,
was the mysterious power from Beyond the Heavens.
Adding to that, the “Eastward Returning Tavern” owner, Bai Li Dong Jun, and the involvement of several other young masters of North Li.
Right now, Chai Sang City is a powder keg.
And the Gu family, is the fuse!
The story unfolds as always.
Bai Li Dong Jun, who came to Chai Sang City to open a tavern and sell wine, didn't manage to sell even a single cup of wine.
Instead, he met Si Kong Chang Feng, an amnesiac youth, sick and weak, who ate and drank for free.
Meanwhile, the once bustling and lively Dragon Head Street was completely under the control of the Yan family.
They arranged for four masters, the Butcher, the Old Lady Who Embroiders, the Oil Seller, and Little Xi Shi, to disguise themselves and remain hidden within the streets!
As a result,
The Eastward Returning Tavern became the target of everyone's attention.
It drew the attention of Yan Bie Tian.
Clearly, soon, Yan Bie Tian will personally pay a visit to probe the situation, and then try to eliminate both Bai Li Dong Jun and Si Kong Chang Feng.
After all, to unify the Southwest region,
Yan Bie Tian cannot allow any instability to occur.
This is also why he dared to defy public opinion and cooperate with the forces from Beyond the Heavens, the remnants of the North Que Dynasty!
At this moment, outside the Gu Manor.
Two young men walked around with an umbrella for a long time.
Before sneaking into the back garden of the Gu Manor.
One was dressed in fine clothes, the other carried a long spear.
It was Bai Li Dong Jun and Si Kong Chang Feng.
They came here to figure out why Dragon Head Street had become so strange, and whether it was related to the Gu family?
“Wait, someone… it seems, they’re not human!”
Just as they were carefully moving around,
Si Kong Chang Feng used his spear to protect Bai Li Dong Jun.
Because from the distant pavilion, two women appeared like ghosts, one a white-haired loli, the other a black-haired girl.
Both emitted an eerie and ghostly aura.
They weren't holding umbrellas yet remained dry, their hands seemed to be pulling on invisible threads.
The originally white sky turned black as ink with the oppressive clouds, the world instantly became as dark as night!
A thunderclap roared, the lightning crackled and flickered.
A man in black, holding an oiled paper umbrella, stepped into the main courtyard of the Gu Manor from the void.
"Your Highness, these are the "Puppets" of the Dark River. It seems Gu Jian Men and the Dark River will inevitably clash! Should this servant take action?"
From the more hidden top of the pavilion, Ye Yu, holding an oiled paper umbrella, respectfully asked Xiao Cheng Xuan.
"The Dark River? This top assassin organization, besides killing, is also laying important plans throughout North Li. However, the Dark River's enemies are also acting, even affecting the Dark River's plans and survival. Now, the Dark River has extended its reach to the Southwest region and to the Eight Young Masters. Interesting!"
"Su Mu Yu represents the will of the Dark River and is the leader of the Dark River’s headmaster's direct assassin group. Seventeen Umbrella Bones, Thin Sword and Evening Rain Sword, Thin Sword's rainbow, when used to kill, falls like a drizzle."
"While Gu Jian Men's left-hand, 'Moon Snow', and the Gu family's ancestral 'Army Formation'!"
"No need to think, Gu Jian Men won't be able to defeat Su Mu Yu. But Su Mu Yu has come to cooperate, not to kill."
"Let's go, let’s see those two girls. Of the three Dark River families, the Mu family excels in deceitful arts! I want to see it for myself!"
As Xiao Cheng Xuan spoke.
His figure disappeared from the top of the pavilion.
Suddenly.
He appeared right in front of the white-haired loli and the black-haired girl.
"Twin sisters, born from the same womb, yin and yang bodies. It seems you are not from the Spider Shadow Squad, but rather products of the Mu family's 'Furnace'!"
Looking at the twin white-haired loli and black-haired girl, both dressed in strange outfits.
Xiao Cheng Xuan spoke with an amused interest.
"How dare you, knowing that we are from the Dark River, you still dare to intervene in the affairs of the Dark River?"
The twins, startled by the voice, reacted upon realizing someone was behind them.
"Mere deceitful arts, dare to speak rudely to the Prince, impertinent!"
In an instant, Blood Shadow Ye Yu moved.
A bloody sword emerged from the void.
Cutting through the "Night Curtain" created by the twin white-haired loli and black-haired girl.
The black mist dissipated, and light bathed the land.
Night turned into day!
At the same time.
Su Mu Yu in the Gu Manor seemed to sense something.
Her expression changed drastically!
