93: The sect's first genius

The Zheng Family was nothing special, just one of the seventeen Qi Refining Perfection families, so Liu Xuan didn't pay them much mind.

But Liang Guanghai was different; he was actually one of Senior Sister Xiao Ran's subordinates!

"If Senior Sister wanted to kill me..." "That shouldn't be possible!"

If Xiao Ran wanted to kill him, there would be no need to go through so much trouble, and no one from the Zheng Family would be involved.

"Madam, do you know anything about this Liang Guanghai? Tell me in detail."

Xia He pondered for a moment. "Liang Guanghai is an Inner Sect Disciple of the Spell Hall. He seems to be from a northern county town and came to Yongning with the second batch of Law Enforcement Team when they arrived.

After the Chen Family was destroyed, most of the Law Enforcement Team were transferred away, but he stayed behind."

"That's all I know. If Husband wants more detailed information, I can send people to investigate."

Liu Xuan slowly shook his head. "No need!"

"Don't mention this to anyone. I'm going out for a bit. Take good care of the Family!"

After speaking, Liu Xuan got up and left, summoning his Iron Feather Eagle and heading back towards White Crane Lake.

This time, he didn't take a direct route but circled around, returning to White Crane Lake from another direction.

After returning to the Merchant Alliance Hall by the lake, settling the Iron Feather Eagle and Little Shadow, Liu Xuan carried a black package and flew towards Lake Heart Island.

Jingxin Courtyard.

This was Senior Sister Xiao Ran's residence, and also the former residence of the Chen Family's Foundation Establishment Ancestor.

"What are you doing here?"

After a servant announced him at the door, Zhang Kexin came out and questioned him.

This girl, Zhang Kexin, had a very impolite attitude. She already knew that Liu Xuan had fathered many children, and at least half of those rumors were true!

She had even blamed herself for misunderstanding him before; it was simply... simply a waste of such a handsome face.

"Senior Sister Kexin, I have an important matter to report to Senior Sister. Please inform her." Liu Xuan said seriously.

"What is it?"

"Senior Sister is very busy. Don't bother her with trivial matters. You can just tell me."

Zhang Kexin looked at the black package in Liu Xuan's hand, thinking he was here to curry favor and flatter her again.

"It's a matter of life and death! Senior Sister, please do not delay." Liu Xuan's tone became a few shades heavier.

"You..."

"You wait!"

She didn't know why, but even though she disliked Liu Xuan's conduct, as long as she saw his face, she subconsciously didn't want to refuse him.

A short while later, a maid came out. "Young Master Liu, please follow me."

Following the maid to a living room, after waiting for a while, Xiao Ran and Zhang Kexin came over together.

"What important matter requires you to see me?"

Xiao Ran spoke faintly, her long-held position of authority giving her an inexplicable sense of majesty.

Liu Xuan directly opened the package, revealing four severed heads. "Senior Sister, please see!"

Xiao Ran's eyes narrowed, her Aura intensifying a few degrees, and she questioned, "What happened?"

Liu Xuan cupped his hands. "Reporting to Senior Sister, these four ambushed and tried to kill me a few hours ago while I was on my way to the city. By luck, I managed to kill them instead."

"The identities of these four are special, and one of them is a Sect Disciple from the Law Enforcement Team. I ask Senior Sister to investigate thoroughly!"

Xiao Ran recognized the head of her subordinate, Liang Guanghai, at a glance. She didn't recognize the others.

"Kexin, go find Zhou Xiaozhu immediately and have her control all of Liang Guanghai's people."

Xiao Ran turned to Zhang Kexin and instructed, "Also, you personally lead people to investigate the identities of these individuals. Be quick!"

Liang Guanghai was the captain of the Law Enforcement Team, overseeing hundreds of Law Enforcement Team Disciples. If what Liu Xuan said was true, all of these people were suspicious.

"Yes!"

Zhang Kexin was stunned for a moment, gave Liu Xuan a deep look, and then left.

Xiao Ran regained her composure, also scrutinizing Liu Xuan from head to toe, and asked, "Four Late Qi Refining Stage Cultivators ambushed you, and you killed them all! I didn't expect you to have such ability!"

The four heads still had faint traces of spiritual power fluctuations, all from the Late Qi Refining Stage Realm.

Liang Guanghai was even a Late Qi Refining Stage Cultivator from the Sect's Law Enforcement Hall, an Inner Sect Disciple, whose combat strength was considered top-tier among Late Qi Refining Stage Cultivators.

For Liu Xuan to kill four people alone, it was hard for Xiao Ran not to be surprised.

"Just luck!"

Liu Xuan said with a relieved expression, "They thought I was an ordinary Middle Stage of Qi Refining Cultivator, so they lowered their guard, which gave me an opportunity!"

Seeing Xiao Ran's interested expression, Liu Xuan spread his palm, and the heavenly origin sword appeared, emitting a scorching Aura.

"This is..."

"Sword Intent!"

Xiao Ran's eyes widened, and she stood up from her seat, even more surprised than when she had first seen the four heads.

Among all the Qi Refining Stage Disciples in the entire Red Pine Sect, not a single one had comprehended Sword Intent. It was said that only Senior Brother Wang Qiao had comprehended Sword Intent during the Qi Refining Stage back then.

Within the Heavenly Sword Sect's territory, the Dao of the Sword was revered. For Liu Xuan to comprehend Sword Intent at the Middle Stage of Qi Refining, he would even have a chance to enter the Inner Sect of the Heavenly Sword Sect!

Terrifying indeed!

The heavenly origin sword grew brighter and brighter, igniting with crimson flames, like a small sun. Liu Xuan explained:

"I have some comprehension of the Sect's Nine Luminaries Sword Canon, and ordinary Late Qi Refining Stage Cultivators cannot withstand it."

With a thought, the heavenly origin sword's light converged, transforming into a streak of light and retreating back into Liu Xuan's body.

Liu Xuan then took out a second-tier Low Grade protective Talisman, and a large handful of first-tier high-grade and top-grade Talismans.

"Revered Master Ancestor Qingyun has shown me great care, so I have a few more means of self-defense."

Xiao Ran nodded slightly. "No wonder Senior Brother Qingyun is so indulgent towards you!"

Not long ago, rumors spread in the Sect that Liu Xuan possessed a special Physique; not only was his Cultivation speed not slow, but he could also have children without affecting his Cultivation, earning him the nickname 'Stud Spirit Body!'

Now it seemed Liu Xuan was not just a special Physique; he also possessed Sword Dao talent and Talisman talent.

Having entered the Nine Luminaries Sword Canon, refined a Natal Flying Sword, and being a First-Rank Mid-Grade Talisman Master, he could be considered the number one Genius in the entire Sect!

If it had been twenty years earlier, if his grandfather, Immortal Revered Master Xiao, had known about this, he probably would have shamelessly vied with Senior Brother Qingyun for a Disciple... "Don't worry!"

Xiao Ran looked at Liu Xuan. "This matter was due to my oversight. After the facts are clear, I will give you an explanation!"

"No, no, no!"

Liu Xuan quickly waved his hand. "Senior Sister misunderstands. I am not here to ask for an explanation. I am just worried that someone might ruin Senior Sister's important plans!"

Liu Xuan estimated that this ambush was not merely a simple case of murder for profit, but rather instigated by the Robber Cultivator forces.

There had always been a mysterious Foundation Establishment Tribulation Cultivator hiding in Yongning, and Liu Xuan did not want to face such an opponent alone. It was better to shift the problem to Xiao Ran.

If the Robber Cultivator forces discovered that the people sent to kill Liu Xuan were dead, but Xiao Ran's side showed no reaction, even a ghost would know there was a problem.

Once attention shifted to Liu Xuan, he would never be able to live in peace!

By shifting the matter to Xiao Ran, he could not only implicate and strike at the Robber Cultivator forces but also make the other party mistakenly believe that the mission failed due to Xiao Ran, thus not spending more effort on him.

"Alright!"

"You return to your courtyard and stay there for now. I'll call you once the matter is thoroughly investigated!"

With no issues from Liu Xuan's side, Xiao Ran was eager to use this incident to purge the internal Law Enforcement Team and then eradicate some families connected to the Robber Cultivators!
