256: Fight till death? You are such a fool

“You're courting death!”

Xie Cangxuan roared, no longer caring about anything else, and directly charged at Xie Weilou with his blade. He only had three sons, and now all three were dead.

“Old dog.”

Xie Weilou's smile was cold and sharp as the Great Xia Dragon Sparrow in his hand instantly slashed out.

Boom!

The Great Xia Dragon Sparrow erupted with a fierce pressure, and a blood-red blade aura swept out, instantly melting the surrounding ice and snow, filled with an immense killing intent.

Bang!

The Great Xia Dragon Sparrow struck Xie Cangxuan's long blade, directly splitting it in half. The powerful blade aura sent Xie Cangxuan flying over twenty meters, leaving a hideous blade scar on his chest.

Boom!

Xie Cangxuan's body crashed to the ground, his pale bones exposed, blood gushing from his nose and mouth, his eyes filled with terror.

He hadn't expected that his Tuojiang Realm cultivation would be severely wounded by a single strike from Xie Weilou. The Great Xia Dragon Sparrow was truly terrifying.

From that one strike, he could feel that Xie Weilou hadn't used much power at all; it was solely the power of the Great Xia Dragon Sparrow, yet he was utterly unable to resist.

“Marquis...”

Madam Du's face turned even paler when she saw Xie Cangxuan sent flying by a single strike. At this moment, she also regretted it, regretting provoking Xie Weilou, this harbinger of misfortune.

Xie Weilou, holding the Great Xia Dragon Sparrow, approached Madam Du, staring at her with a cold expression: “An outsider, lording over my Zhenxi Marquis Manor, yet daring to order my maidservant around. You are simply courting death. Xie Lingyun is dead; you should go accompany him.”

“No...”

Madam Du's body trembled, and she quickly scrambled backward.

Xie Cangxuan glared at Xie Weilou: “Xie Weilou, if you dare touch her, I will fight you to the death.”

Rip!

Xie Weilou instantly swung his blade, splitting Madam Du's body in half. Blood splattered, and internal organs spilled out.

Madam Du was dead!

Xie Weilou gently stroked the blood-stained Great Xia Dragon Sparrow, his smile exceedingly bloodthirsty: “To the death? You, Xie Cangxuan, are also a pig. What right do you have to contend with This Young Master?”

His figure flickered, and he instantly appeared before Xie Cangxuan, stepping on his chest with one foot, and bringing his long blade down fiercely.

Puff!

With one strike, Xie Cangxuan's arm was severed, and blood splattered.

“Ah...”

Xie Cangxuan let out a pained shriek, his face contorted, his expression one of extreme agony.

Bang!

Xie Weilou kicked Xie Cangxuan's head, sending him directly out of the main courtyard.

“...”

The surrounding guards and maidservants trembled, their eyes filled with terror.

“Young Master...”

Lihua stared blankly at Xie Weilou.

Xie Weilou glanced around, saying indifferently: “This Young Master now announces that Xie Cangxuan has been expelled from my Zhenxi Marquis Manor. All those who belong to Xie Cangxuan, Xie Lingyun, Madam Du, or Madam You, must leave my Zhenxi Marquis Manor today. Anyone who dares to disobey will be killed without mercy!”

After speaking, he put away the Great Xia Dragon Sparrow and walked towards Lihua.

“Were you wronged?”

Xie Weilou stared at Lihua.

“Lihua didn't want to cause trouble for Young Master...”

Lihua lowered her head.

Xie Weilou reached out and gently flicked her forehead: “Where is Butler Fu?”

Lihua quickly said: “There was news earlier that Young Master encountered danger, so Butler Fu took people to search for you. He hasn't returned yet.”

If Butler Fu were here, she naturally wouldn't have been bullied by Madam Du.

Xie Weilou raised an eyebrow: “Who sent the message?”

Lihua said: “I don't know! Someone secretly placed a letter in the Zhenxi Marquis Manor.”

Xie Weilou was silent for a second, then took Lihua's hand and walked towards the pavilion. Without a doubt, this letter was also related to Madam Du and her son, or perhaps Xie Cangxuan.

Inside the pavilion.

Xie Weilou released a white pigeon. He needed Seven Nights Snow to investigate Butler Fu's whereabouts.

Then, he took out a spiritual herb, crushed it, and placed it in a wooden basin, telling Lihua: “Soak your hands in this water; they'll recover quickly.”

Lihua looked at Xie Weilou nervously: “Young Master, you killed Madam Du and her son, and even severed one of Xie Cangxuan's arms. Will there be big trouble?”

Xie Weilou smiled faintly: “No! After all, your Young Master is the master of the Zhenxi Marquis Manor. They are all outsiders who dared to lord over this place. It's already good that I didn't exterminate their nine generations.”

Lihua said sweetly: “If you exterminated nine generations, Young Master would be among them.”

Xie Weilou gently rubbed Lihua's head: “Hurry and soak your hands.”

“Oh.”

Lihua obediently put her hands into the water basin.

Xie Weilou sat down beside her, picked up a cup of fragrant tea, and quietly savored it.

After a while.

The white pigeon flew back.

Xie Weilou took the note from it, read it, and his brows relaxed slightly. He told Lihua: “Butler Fu encountered some trouble, but he's fine and is on his way back.”

According to the news from Seven Nights Snow, Butler Fu was ambushed after going to look for him, but he was unharmed.

And the culprit behind this was Xie Lingyun, who clearly intended to get Butler Fu to leave and find an opportunity to eliminate him.

Lihua's face showed a hint of joy: “It's good that Butler Fu is alright.”

“...”

Xie Weilou smiled and continued to drink his tea.

Half an hour later.

Eunuch Huang arrived at the Zhenxi Marquis Manor.

“Greetings, Eunuch Huang.”

Xie Weilou walked out of the pavilion and slightly cupped his fists towards Eunuch Huang. The manor had already been cleaned, but there was still a faint smell of blood.

Eunuch Huang said in a deep voice: “Young Master, His Majesty wants you to go to the imperial palace.”

“Thank you, Eunuch Huang, for making the trip. I'll go now.”

Xie Weilou smiled indifferently. Needless to say, it must be because of Xie Cangxuan's matter.

Eunuch Huang sighed: “Young Master, you were impulsive!”

Xie Weilou, with a complex expression, pulled a copper coin from his sleeve: “Eunuch Huang is a close attendant of the Emperor; he hasn't experienced going hungry for three days and nine meals, so he naturally doesn't understand my helplessness.”

“...”

Eunuch Huang's mouth twitched. He's pretending to be poor?

Xie Weilou put away the copper coin and said with a smile: “Eunuch Huang, let's go.”

“Young Master, please!”

Eunuch Huang extended his hand.

Xie Weilou chuckled: “Eunuch Huang is an elder; you go first.”

Eunuch Huang's smile deepened, and he didn't decline, striding ahead. Putting aside everything else, Young Master was actually very good at dealing with people!

Xie Weilou smiled and followed him.

Imperial Palace.

Main Hall.

The Xia Emperor's face was extremely gloomy. Yan Ruyu was pouring him tea beside him, and below, Xie Cangxuan, who had lost an arm, was weeping and complaining.

“Reporting to His Majesty, Young Lord Xie has arrived.”

Eunuch Huang stepped forward and bowed.

The Xia Emperor said in a deep voice: “Let him in.”

“Announce Xie Weilou!”

Eunuch Huang proclaimed loudly.

Subsequently, Xie Weilou entered the main hall.

“Greetings, Your Majesty.”

Xie Weilou respectfully bowed to the Xia Emperor.

Bang!

The Xia Emperor slapped the table. He glared at Xie Weilou: “Xie Weilou, I hear you killed Madam Du and her son, severed your second uncle's arm, and even expelled him from the Zhenxi Marquis Manor?”

Xie Weilou said with a serious expression: “That's right!”

The Xia Emperor's face was grim as he said: “If you cannot find a suitable reason, I will certainly not let you off today.”
