125 For the Sake of the Bigger Picture, Please Die (2)
“Hmph, if Anonymous really comes today, I’ll definitely make sure he doesn’t get out alive. We don’t even know who will win until the last moment!”
“Let’s go. We’ll also go down and take a look. Today’s banquet was held in a hurry mainly to invite the Xu family. The Xu family’s head is also among them. No matter what, we still have to show the Xu family respect,” Liang Fenghua said with a laugh.
The two of them walked down from the attic and saw that many people in the courtyard were already drunk and had fallen asleep on the table.
“We didn’t serve very strong wine today.”
Liang Fenghua was confused, but his expression changed. “Something’s wrong. This is a knockout drug!”
In just a moment, even he felt dizzy. Only a few people with good martial arts cultivation were still holding on.
“Leave quickly!” Liang Fenghua immediately circulated his blood Qi to expel the effects of the drug. He was prepared to say something to the person beside him.
However, when he turned his head, he saw that the person beside him had a calm and peaceful smile on his face. However, there was no sign of life in his body.
Liang Fenghua’s expression changed drastically. However, before he could say anything, he felt a chill in his heart. A strange feeling welled up in his heart, and he could not help but smile gently.
Before he died, he thought of a rumor he had heard.
Among the Nameless, Wu Yan and Wu Dao were well-known, but Wu Hen was the only one who seemed to not exist.
Those who had seen him never lived to tell the tale.
It was said that Wu Hen’s saber was infused with love.
All those who died under the traceless saber had one thing in common; they were all smiling peacefully.
At the moment of his death, Liang Fenghua finally understood why that rumor existed.
The saber was comforting like a lover. However, its betrayal would kill you.
Not only was Anonymous here, but his most terrifying assassin, Wu Hen, was also here!
One by one, people at the banquet died with smiles on their faces. A blurry figure moved each time a person fell.
“Don’t kill me, I’m a member of the Xu family!” Xu Yihao could no longer remain calm. He screamed with a pale face, “The Grandmaster of the Xu family is right here.”
The blurry figure seemed to have paused for a moment. Then, it passed by Xu Yihao without touching him.
However, Xu Yihao was still in a cold sweat. He kept changing his expression and touched his chest and back to make sure that he was still alive.
When he confirmed that he was not dead, Xu Yihao was overjoyed. “Even Wu Hen doesn’t dare kill me.”
After a while, everyone except for Xu Yihao and a few Xu family disciples had been killed.
The previously lively banquet instantly became silent.
The courtyard was filled with smiling corpses. No matter how one looked at it, it was strange and terrifying.
At this moment, a figure quietly appeared at the entrance of the front courtyard. His face was plain, and he stood with his hands behind his back, calmly looking at the Liang family’s courtyard.
Xu Yihao’s expression changed as he had already guessed the identity of the person. It was Anonymous!
That blurry figure also quietly stood half a step behind Anonymous, standing with his hands by his side.
“Did we actually see Wu Hen’s true appearance?”
Xu Yihao and the other members of the Xu family held their breaths. They looked at the middle-aged man who was hiding in the shadows behind Anonymous in disbelief. They could vaguely see half of his face.
Their hearts were immediately filled with excitement and pride.
“Maybe Anonymous won’t really kill the Liang family’s head today on account of the Xu family’s head. He might just ask for some compensation,” Xu Yihao thought as he relaxed.
At this moment, two surging auras rose from the inside and outside of the Liang family.
“Anonymous, you will die here today!”
In the courtyard, an old voice rang out like thunder.
A tall figure flew out from the courtyard.
Outside the courtyard, the other aura was also approaching rapidly and landed on the top of a pavilion.
The two Grandmasters appeared at the same time, trapping Anonymous and Wu Hen in the middle.
Jiang Ming smiled and looked at the two of them nonchalantly, “There were once three Grandmasters who were so confident, but in the end, I killed them all with a single hit!”
“Don’t think that only you and Zhou Pingshi are at the top of the Grandmaster realm. I’ve been immersed in martial arts for decades, and I’ve not wasted my time!” The Liang family’s head’s eyes were cold.
“Besides, you killed three Grandmasters in a row and used a forbidden technique. I don’t believe you’re not injured at all.”
His breathing steadied. He was also almost at the peak of the Grandmaster realm.
“It seems like your injury was an act as well, huh?” The expression on Jiang Ming’s face changed slightly—as if he was somewhat surprised.
“Although I’m slightly injured, I’m still healthy enough to kill you!” The Liang family’s head laughed coldly. No one knew if he was telling the truth.
Jiang Ming frowned slightly—as if he was a little afraid. Then he turned to look at the figure above the attic, “You must be the head of the Xu family. I’m here to destroy the Liang family today, but it has nothing to do with you. Please don’t make a mistake, Elder Xu!”
When the Liang family’s head saw this, he calmed down. He was even more certain that Anonymous was afraid of the two of them joining forces. If not, why would Wu Hen kill everyone in the courtyard and only leave the Xu family alive? He must not have wanted to anger Elder Xu.
Elder Xu laughed from above, “Anonymous, the legend of the martial arts world, is actually afraid?”
“How can it not be related to me when you annihilate the Liang family?” Elder Xu said in a deep voice, “Today, the Xu and Liang families will advance and retreat together. You have been a martial arts legend for a few months. You’ve had your fun for long enough!”
The Liang family’s head nodded his head.
“What’s there to be afraid of two Grandmasters?” Jiang Ming’s eyes were fierce, and he looked like he was going to risk it all. “If you have the guts, come and face me!”
The two Grandmasters sneered before they rushed out at the same time. Their blood Qi exploded, and the two of them arrived in front of Jiang Ming in an instant.
The Liang family’s head’s face was filled with ruthlessness as he threw a punch at Jiang Ming.
Jiang Ming parried, and his fist collided with the Liang family’s head. A terrifying ripple exploded, and the force splashed in all directions, almost killing a few Xu family’s disciples.
The Liang family’s head swayed. He thought to himself that Anonymous really lived up to his name. His physical strength was truly terrifying.
“However, if this is all he’s got, then he’ll definitely die today. He’s blocked my punch, but how can he block Xu’s killing move?” The Liang family’s head was delighted. It seemed like Anonymous had used a forbidden technique to kill three Grandmasters in a row. As expected, he was still injured.
The next moment, the body of the Liang family’s head was suddenly sent flying. Half of his chest had collapsed, and he coughed out blood as he looked at the person who had attacked him in disbelief.
“Xu!”
