Chapter 369 The Young Singer's Journey 38
However, Xiao Yu didn't give her any more glances. He simply turned away gently, his steps unhurried, leaving behind only a meaningful sentence that echoed in the air:
“I know all of Ye Xiaoying’s past actions; I also have a firm grasp on his current every move. Letting him retire and return to his hometown now is giving him a chance to live. Of course, whether you cherish this opportunity is up to you.”
In his previous life, he was annoyed by Ye Xiaoying, but this man was loyal to Xiao Ruofeng. Apart from his habit of whispering in Xiao Ruofeng's ear to persuade him to take the throne, he was otherwise a good person.
Times have changed. Now Ye Xiaoying holds military power, and due to his relationship with Xiao Ruofeng, he will inevitably lean more towards Xiao Se in the subsequent struggle for the throne.
Xiao Yu will now use Ye Ruoyi to give a heads-up. If Ye Xiaoying is sensible, then everything will be fine; otherwise…
……
Xiao Se watched Xiao Yu's departing figure, his gaze shifting between Ji Ruofeng and Ye Ruoyi for a moment before finally chasing after him.
He left Snowfall Manor and came to Snowmoon City with Lei Wujie for two reasons.
Firstly, he wanted to take the initiative and draw out the mysterious figure who had injured him years ago.
Secondly, he wanted to accumulate enough capital as soon as possible to return to Tianqi City and exonerate his wrongly accused uncle.
This person's cultivation is now unfathomable, and he is no ordinary person to Uncle Wang. Just because the Wine Immortal and the Gun Immortal did not go to Tianqi City to save people back then, he directly crippled their cultivation.
If I can gain this person's support, Uncle Wang's injustice may soon be redressed.
With this hope in mind, Xiao Se resolutely chased after him.
However, just as he was about to step out of the threshold of Snowmoon City, the sky seemed to be covered by an invisible giant hand, and instantly fell into darkness.
Xiao Se's heart tightened, and he made a quick decision, turning around and returning to Snow Moon City. The sky before him then returned to its bright state.
Deceptive tactics.
Xiao Se recognized the formation in front of him at a glance.
This formation is so grand that it could not have been set up by just one or two people; it should not have been created by that person.
Could it be that someone is lurking in the shadows, secretly setting up this formation while that person is fighting against Baili Dongjun and Sikong Changfeng, hoping to reap the benefits?
Thinking of this, Xiao Se sighed helplessly, temporarily shelved his idea of continuing to pursue Xiao Yu, and returned to Snow Moon City.
……
Xiao Yu gazed at the pitch-black night sky, a faint smile playing on his lips: "What a familiar scene."
Looking at the sudden drizzle falling from the sky, Wuxin asked with a hint of confusion and surprise, "Did the underground river do this?"
"Who else could it be but them? They are always very good at seizing opportunities," Xiao Yu replied calmly, but a strange light flickered in his eyes.
The Dark River chose to strike at this moment simply to play the mantis stalking the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind, attempting to kill Xiao Yu and Baili Dongjun and Sikong Changfeng while their strength and internal energy had not fully recovered after their duel.
Wuxin asked, "Can you handle this in your current state?"
Xiao Yu glanced at Wuxin, snorted coldly, and then flicked his sleeve, unleashing a powerful force that demonstrated his strength through his actions.
In an instant, the darkness dissipated, and several muffled groans came from hidden spots in the forest.
A gentle breeze swept by, and a strong, pungent smell of blood quickly filled the entire forest.
Several figures slowly emerged from the woods, including men, women, and children. Behind them followed a group of assassins in black, moving silently like ghosts in the night.
These people were the elite forces within the Dark River. As soon as they appeared, a chilling aura filled the entire mountain forest.
Among them, the most conspicuous were the man in black robes at the front and the man next to him holding an umbrella.
"It's great to finally meet you all," Xiao Yu said with a sigh.
These people were clearly there to take his life, but when he saw them, he smiled.
He spent so much money and went to great lengths to place an order with Dark River, all to lure these people out, right?
Today is truly a wonderful day.
Xiao Yu was suddenly filled with emotion.
He just crippled Baili Dongjun and Sikong Changfeng, causing Xueyue City's strength to plummet.
Those sects that have grudges against Snow Moon City will definitely take this opportunity to suppress Snow Moon City, plunging it into endless troubles and rendering it powerless to interfere in court affairs.
As a result, Xiao Se's purpose in coming to Snow Moon City failed, and the power of the Jianghu forces behind him decreased by 1.
Now, he can eliminate Anhe, which will not only avenge Ruofeng but also ruin Xiao Chong's efforts in flirting with Anhe, reducing Xiao Chong's backing in the martial arts world by 1.
Most importantly, he was able to vent his pent-up frustration.
New memories begin to overwrite existing ones, and can also rapidly advance the current business process.
What a bountiful day!
Su Changhe clapped his hands and laughed, his voice full of admiration: "Your Excellency is truly skilled, to have single-handedly taken Snow Moon City..."
Xiao Yu didn't bother to listen to what he had to say, and simply told Wu Xin to "protect yourself" before dashing off like an arrow.
He didn't actually like fighting, but in this world where martial arts reigned supreme, it seemed that only strength could solve everything.
Reluctantly, he had no choice but to adapt to local customs.
Compared to the duels with Baili Dongjun and Sikong Changfeng, Xiao Yu felt that dealing with Anhe was simpler and more direct.
If he cripples the former, he can stir up some conflict in the martial arts world, but if he kills both of them, then he will become the target of hatred in the martial arts world.
Therefore, in order to avoid becoming the target of public criticism, he could not kill Baili Dongjun and Sikong Changfeng, but he had no such concern about Anhe.
No one knows the origins of Dark River; all they know is that it is a notorious assassin organization.
So now he can kill to his heart's content and vent his anger to his heart's content.
In this world, no one can stop Xiao Yu when he unleashes his full power.
Nobody's here!
……
Su Changhe originally thought that even if Xiao Yu was very powerful, his internal energy should be almost depleted after being exhausted by Baili Dongjun and Sikong Changfeng.
At this moment, leading the elite forces of the Dark River, killing Xiao Yu would be as easy as taking candy from a baby.
But to my utter surprise...
Xiao Yu's strength far exceeded his expectations.
With every gesture, dark clouds filled the sky, and thunder rumbled.
The surrounding vegetation rustled and fell under the impact of this powerful force, but before it could even hit the ground, it had already transformed into sharp hidden weapons, flying everywhere, blotting out the sun and covering the sky.
Each fallen leaf is like a meticulously crafted flying knife, and each weed is like a steel needle that has been forged through countless trials.
Everything in the world seemed to have become a weapon, carrying a sharp and murderous sword aura, attacking them at an astonishing speed.
