Surrounded by mountains and rivers, in the evening, there is a small bluestone bridge and smoke curling up from cooking stoves.
On both sides of the street, men, women, old and young gathered together, making it quiet and peaceful.
However, this tranquility was broken by a figure in black who suddenly stood up! "You are..." One of the men, almost subconsciously, protected the child behind him and growled at the visitor.
But his voice stopped abruptly in an instant.
Blood streaked through the air, and the man's body trembled, slumped to the ground, and lost all life.
Run! Everyone changed their colors in shock. After reacting, there was only one thought in their minds.
"Can you escape?"
The figure in black looked at the people fleeing in all directions, the murderous intent in his eyes slowly being replaced by a different kind of playfulness.
He was like a hunter, enjoying the final struggle of his prey.
And in the next moment, the figure in black moved instantly, turning into countless phantoms in the air, spreading out like ripples.
Next, in just a blink of an eye, countless bodies fell on the ground.
The people who were running wildly, no matter men, women, old or young, all died.
"It's time to change to another place."
The black-clothed figure sensed it again to make sure that there was no breath of life. There was a hint of coldness at the corner of his mouth, and the figure moved and disappeared like a ghost.
at the same moment.
Faster! Faster! Faster! Faster! High in the sky, Nie Tian's wings vibrated like a meteor, and his speed was extremely fast.
But there was still only one thought in his mind: Hurry! He knew that if he was delayed even one minute, it would mean that countless people would die tragically.
But it's a pity that his speed has reached its extreme and he can't go any faster.
After a while, Nie Tian finally saw the outline of Jiuye Town.
"hateful!"
Although he hadn't reached Jiuye yet, Nie Tian could smell the dripping smell of blood from a distance.
He was still late! "Who is it?"
At this moment, a cold and stern scolding suddenly sounded in the void, and then a majestic force came violently.
Nie Tian, however, did not dodge or evade. He suddenly turned around and allowed the violent force to suppress him, but his body did not move at all.
His eyes were like a dark abyss, locked firmly on a black figure in black not far away.
"Um?"
The figure in black couldn't help but be surprised when he saw that Nie Tian could resist his palm. Then he felt the terrifying murderous intent in the latter's eyes, and his face changed.
"Are you from the Jiuhu Sword Alliance?"
The corner of Nie Tian's mouth twitched, and the murderous intent surged in his eyes, covering it like a real substance.
"From now on, this place will be taken over by the Sword Alliance. I advise you to leave."
The man in black's heart trembled violently, but he still forced himself to calm down and said in a deep voice.
Of course he could see that Nie Tian was stronger than him, so it was not appropriate to confront him head-on at this time.
"Yeah?"
Nie Tian smiled coldly and said, "Then what if I say that from now on, I will take over this place?"
"You..." The man in black suddenly felt the breath of death approaching and screamed in horror, but he couldn't say the following words.
His body shook slightly, the meridians in his body were severed, and his internal organs were shattered, falling down like a broken leaf.
"Nie Tian, are you crazy?"
At this moment, Bai Ziqiu finally arrived and saw the man in black falling. He immediately turned around and looked at Nie Tian, roaring in a low voice.
He simply couldn't believe that Nie Tian dared to kill people from the Nine Lakes Sword Alliance! "Don't you smell the smell of blood in the air?"
Nie Tian looked downcast and said, "It's not me who's crazy, it's them!"
"You..." Bai Ziqiu was stunned on the spot and was speechless for a moment.
Of course he could feel Nie Tian's anger, but these people clearly had nothing to do with the latter.
Could it be that Nie Tian wants to become an enemy of the Nine Lakes Sword Alliance because of these people?
Nie Tian no longer paid attention to Bai Ziqiu, his figure moved instantly, and in the blink of an eye, he came to the main street of Jiuye Town.
But what he saw were corpses all over the ground.
The bloody air rushing toward his face seemed to penetrate into Nie Tian's flesh and bones, causing his whole body to release a furious energy.
"Hey, is there another one who slipped through the net?"
Behind him, a joking voice sounded, with a hint of amusement.
"Did you kill them all?"
Nie Tian suddenly turned around, his eyes glowing red, like a ferocious beast coming out of hell.
"You..." The swordsman in black's heart trembled inexplicably, and he was so frightened that he could not speak for a moment.
The murderer, did he ever think that he would become someone else's prey? "Oh!"
The next moment, Nie Tian's eyes darkened, and a sword energy burst out. The moment the sharp blade broke through the air, the man in black was cut into two pieces.
This scene was seen again by Bai Ziqiu, who had just arrived, and he was so shocked that his heart trembled again.
It turned out that Nie Tian was so terrifying when he was angry.
You must know that this black-clothed swordsman was in the early stage of Renqi's cultivation, but in front of Nie Tian, he was like a chicken and a dog, with no ability to resist at all.
"This guy is more suitable for that plan than anyone else. It seems that I informed Master that it was the right choice."
Bai Ziqiu's eyes darkened slightly and he said secretly in his heart.
At this moment, a powerful force in the void suddenly descended, as if there was a giant hand pressing down from high in the sky.
Bai Ziqiu suddenly raised his head, the talisman under his feet appeared again, and the mysterious light surged around his body, resisting the mighty force.
On the other hand, Nie Tian on the other side seemed completely unaware. Despite the overwhelming force, the mountains in the heavy rain and wind remained motionless.
"Um?"
Immediately, a sound of surprise sounded, and a figure fell.
It was none other than Fang Nan, one of the Thirteen Tianzong Swordsmen of the Jiuhu Sword Alliance! Almost at the same moment, more than a dozen figures in black appeared and landed behind Fang Nan, with a majestic and agitated momentum.
"Solve it?"
Fang Nan looked sideways at Nie Tian and Bai Ziqiu and asked in a deep voice.
"Sir, within a radius of five hundred miles, all life is exhausted!"
A black-clothed warrior answered, but his eyes couldn't help but look at Nie Tian and the two, as if wondering where these two people came from.
"I didn't expect that there are people like you in such a remote place as Jiuye Town."
Fang Nan's eyes were cold and stern, and he spoke solemnly.
He had just detected the auras of Nie Tian and Bai Ziqiu, and was shocked.
He really didn't expect that such a talented person would appear here.
Especially Nie Tian's aura was as deep as an abyss, making it difficult to see the bottom.
"Judging from your aura, you should be Lord Fang Nan, one of the Thirteen Swordsmen of Heaven, right?"
Bai Ziqiu looked at Fang Nan, took a step forward, and bowed slightly.
"you know me?"
Fang Nan's eyes narrowed slightly, a little surprised.
"Junior Bai Ziqiu."
Bai Ziqiu said respectfully, quite confidently.
"oh?"
Fang Nan was surprised, then smiled and said: "No wonder you have such cultivation at such a young age, you turned out to be one of the nine great masters.
If I remember correctly, Wu Canglang is your adoptive father."
"Exactly."
The corners of Bai Ziqiu's mouth twitched, and he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
His adoptive father Wu Canglang was one of the nine great masters of the Jiuhu Sword Alliance, and in terms of hierarchical status, he was much higher than Fang Nan.
The reason why he knew about the Xingtie Mine was from his adoptive father Wu Canglang.
Since Fang Nan directly told Wu Canglang, based on his relationship with Wu Canglang, Fang Nan would not embarrass them.
"Bai Ziqiu, you can leave."
Fang Nan had a serious look on his face, then his eyes locked on Nie Tian, and said solemnly: "But his hands are stained with the blood of the Nine Lakes Swordsman, so he must pay with his life!"
