Chapter 219: The Depth of the Gentry

ss and allowing my foster father's soul to rest in peace!"No need to be polite!" Li Xue Min paused for a moment before continuing, "Where have you been all these years And how did you come back now""A...Phew!

One elderly man let out a heavy sigh and then looked at Ye Ji.

"This must be the North District Overseer of Shadow Gate, Lady Yejie, right I would like to know what happened, why Shadow Gate is making such a big fuss at my Chu family manor"

"Won't you still be doing this because of last time That matter, Zhongtian has already reached a conclusion. Could it be that Yingmen wants to defy Zhongtian"

"Enough talk, you can't handle this today!" Ye Ji coldly interrupted the other person.

"Considering that you are only guests of the Chu family, if you leave now, you can save your lives!"

Otherwise, it shall be considered obstructing the Shadow Gate's capture of the criminal, and beheaded!

"I wonder who the culprit Elder Night Ji refers to" The old man took a deep breath.

"You have thirty seconds left. If you don't let people go, you'll be responsible for all the consequences!" Ye Ji didn't answer him.

"Are all of you from the Yingmen sect this lawless" Another elder shouted angrily, "I don't believe you can kill all of us!"

Although he was wary of the enemy's strength, he was far from retreating without a fight.

And behind him was the Chu Estate, his duty lay there, he couldn't.

Retreat, is death!

"Get to it!"

Captain Yuan Wei of the Blood Guard and Zhou Liang, city inspector of the Shadow Gate, simultaneously raised their hands.

"Kill!" Two hundred young men shouted in unison, their voices shaking the heavens.

Wow!

The next moment, they rushed headlong into the crowd.

"Stop them!" a shout rang out from the crowd on the other side, and four or five hundred men charged forward with swords in their hands.

Ding! Ding! Ding!

Immediately, the scene was filled with the clang of metal striking metal. Figures flashed, and blades whirled through the air.

Although the opponent had a force of five hundred, they were all just ordinary guards. Even their most skilled fighters were only at the level of warriors. In front of the Blood Squad, they could only be considered ants.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

In less than two minutes, a large area of the ground was littered with limbs and broken bodies. Either dead or maimed beyond recognition.

"You truly deserve to die!" the old man shouted angrily.

"Alright, it's your turn to make a move!" Yejī narrowed her eyes, and the cold moonlight from her curved blade slashed towards the elder.

"Then let me see the skills of the Shadow Gate's Patrol Captain!" The elder's pupils shrank, and he roared as his figure flashed. The broadsword in his hand drew a cold light, meeting the attack head-on, accompanied by a whistling sound.

Scoff!

However, he clearly underestimated the Night Ji's skill.

A blade of freezing light, unleashed with all his might, was effortlessly broken apart by Yejie's swordsmanship. A razor-sharp flash then pierced through his chest.

"How is that possible"

After the old man fell headfirst to the ground, he struggled to utter a few words before his head tilted and he lost his breath.

"Let's fight to the death!" The eight or nine burly men behind the two elderly men roared in unison.

Then, he rushed out, raising his greatsword and charging forward. His cultivation was not low, with five warriors in the late stage and four divine generals.

"Come back, you are not their opponents!" The two elders shouted out at the same time.

But, it's still half a beat slow!

"Thinking like this, I'll grant you your wish!" Before the two elders could finish their words, Qing Long let out a deep voice and took two steps forward. His blood shadow sword struck again.

Knock! Knock! Knock!

After a blade aura of earth-shattering arc, nine men who were charging halfway froze their movements at the same time.

Then, one by one, they fell. Heads were severed from bodies and rolled to the ground, blood spurting like a fountain.

Yikes!

At the sight of this, the guards who hadn't fallen yet were filled with terror, their faces pale and bodies trembling.

With a single stroke, all nine warlords and above were slaughtered!

This is too scary!

Clang! Clang! Clang!

Without any hesitation, all those who were still standing threw down their swords and scattered in all directions.

They are just a group of thugs raised by the Chu clan. They usually swagger and bully others because of the power of the Chu clan, but when a real crisis hits, they wouldn't possibly stand with the clan until the end. Self-preservation would be their top priority!

"To run away at the last minute, death!"

Just then, a roar of anger erupted from the gate of the courtyard.

Immediately following, an overwhelming pressure descended, akin to Mount Tai pressing down.

Half-Step War Sect!

Knock! Knock! Knock!

The next moment, the newcomer's wrist kept flipping, and the large knife in his hand slashed out countless sharp blades, destroying everything in its path.

Just a few steps out of the crowd, people suddenly collapsed in large numbers. Everyone's body was cut in half and fell to the ground.

"Ah!" screams rose and fell.

In less than three minutes, the fleeing people were reduced to fewer than fifty. The rest had all been killed.

"Grand Elder, please spare my life!" The rest of them all knelt down, and many of them had a fishy smell coming from their crotch area.

"A bunch of trash, what use are you to me!" the old man said in a deep voice, his greatsword drawing several streaks of cold light.

Hmph! Hmph! Hmph!

Dozens of men didn't even have time to let out a scream before they were all beheaded, collapsing to the ground instantly without a breath.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

At the same time, a sound of footsteps once again echoed at the entrance of the courtyard. Subsequently, Chu Heng, the head of the Chu clan, led a group of core members of the Chu clan out.

One by one, their faces darkened, and their auras turned menacing. Their eyes fixed on Lu Yue and the other three, flashing with boundless coldness.

"Master of the Valve!" The elder looked towards Chu Heng and bowed, shouting.

"Thank you, Elder!" Chu Heng nodded slightly then looked at Lu Yue and Qinglong.

"If I'm not mistaken, you two should be the new commanders of the East District, Lu Yue and Qinglong, right"

"You're finally willing to come out" Lu Yue responded coldly.

"I'm quite impressed with the both of you!" Chu Heng continued, his voice still deep.

Today, no matter what reason you have for acting so recklessly in my Chu family's territory, I can assure you both that you will absolutely not be able to fulfill your duties!

After that, he turned to Ye Ji again: "And you, the Shadow Gate Inspector, starting tomorrow, the Eastern District Shadow Gate will need a new Inspector!"

"Idiot!" Qinglong said coldly, "You are just a pathetic frog at the bottom of a well!"

"Hmph!" Chu Heng let out a cold snort. "You'll know soon enough who the real frog in the well is!"

"You think that with just a couple hundred of you, you can stand against the Chu clan How naive!"

After finishing, he pointed with his finger at the two hundred Shadow Gate disciples and Blood Guards, and said in a low voice: "Make your move, kill them all!"

Ha! Ha! Ha!

At his command, the core members of the Chu family surged forward, their powerful auras exploding outward.

The depth of the aristocratic family is truly impressive. Among these fifty core members, over half have reached the level of War God cultivation, with a few already at the peak of War God.

"Ignorant fool!" Yuan Wei said in a deep voice, then shouted.

"Blood Guard Squad, charge!"to say, he knows his relationship with Yingmen, so he's afraid of making things difficult for himself!"Ling Hao, you really shouldn't get involved in this. I," Li Xue Long continued speaking."Lao Li,...
