Tiannan City is located in the southeast of Luoyangfang City.
Although they are only a thousand miles apart, they still need to take a detour because they are separated by mountains.
After Xu Qing refined the flying sword, Lin Hao specially reminded her to put the Hidden Breath Talisman on her body so that she could hide her cultivation.
Xu Qing first flew south and then east.
However, a hundred miles away from Tiannan City, he was suddenly blocked by a group of people.
There are ten people in total, three of whom are at the ninth level of Qi Refining, and the rest are all above the seventh level of Qi Refining.
This group of people all took Disguising Pill and changed their appearance.
But Xu Qing is at the Foundation Building Stage, and she can tell them at a glance.
"Rogue Cultivator!" Xu Qing guessed their identities immediately. If they weren't Rogue Cultivator, it would be strange for them to hide their real face like this.
"Get out of the way!" Xu Qing was in a hurry to return home and didn't want to get too entangled with them.
"Hehe, this little lady looks very strong. Brother, can you let me taste her first?"
Three Qi Refining level nine stood at the front, their heights increasing one by one.
The one who opened his mouth was the shortest, and his appearance was extremely ugly. Coupled with his vulgar expression, it made people look like they just wanted to vomit.
"You are courting death!"
Xu Qing glared angrily, and the flying sword at her feet shot directly towards the ugly man.
This group of people had no idea that Xu Qing had broken through the Foundation Building Stage. They received a mission from Lu Yan, which was to intercept and kill a female cultivator on the ninth level of Qi Refining.
So when they saw Xu Qing using her flying sword, they didn't take it to heart at first.
However, they soon discovered something was wrong. The speed of the flying sword was too fast.
Almost in the blink of an eye, it was approaching the ugly man.
"Third brother, quickly evade!" The boss of the group was the first to react.
However, it was too late, the flying sword cut the ugly man in half like cutting tofu.
Blood spurted out instantly.
"This power ….."
The boss seemed to have thought of something, and his eyes suddenly showed a look of fear, "Everyone, run away, the other party is at the Foundation Building Stage!"
The boss shouted in horror.
However, how could Xu Qing let them go at this time.
She made secrets move with her hands to constantly control the direction of the flying sword.
The flying sword was like a talisman, penetrating through their chests and heads.
"Please, don't kill me!"
Seeing his brothers being killed one by one, the boss knew that he could not escape at all. He knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Xu Qing.
A trace of hesitation flashed in Xu Qing's eyes. She was not a murderous person.
If it weren't for the ugly man's filthy words, Xu Qing wouldn't have committed this murder.
However, just when Xu Qing hesitated.
The boss, who kept kowtowing, suddenly opened his mouth, and a silver ice needle shot out of his mouth instantly.
Xu Qing was only a few dozen meters away from him, and the speed of the ice needle was extremely fast.
Xu Qing's eyes widened and she immediately dodged, but she was still hit in the arm. In an instant, she found that her entire arm had become numb.
Apparently, the ice needle was filled with poison.
Without any time to think, Xu Qing immediately protected her heart, then looked at the boss who was desperately running away, pointed two fingers, and the flying sword instantly penetrated his back.
The boss struggled for a moment and then died.
"We must never be so hesitant in the future."
Xu Qing cursed herself secretly. Her entire arm became numb. If she was hit in the head, she would most likely die at the hands of this person.
After collecting all the contents in the storage bags of these ten people, Xu Qing immediately flew towards Tiannan City without caring about her own injuries.
Less than a quarter of an hour after she left, a young man slowly appeared.
"Foundation Building Stage ....."
This young man is Lu Yan, who has been hiding in the forest hundreds of meters away.
And this group of Rogue Cultivators was naturally arranged by him.
What shocked him was that Xu Qing actually broke through the Foundation Building.
"It took only a few days to break through the Foundation Building. It is obviously impossible to be such a coincidence. In other words, brother-in-law lied, but why did brother-in-law lie?"
These days, he focused on investigating Xu Qing's situation. Xu Qing already tried several times and failed to break through. Without the Foundation Building Pill, it would be impossible to break through the Foundation Building Stage.
Lu Yan narrowed his eyes, feeling that things were not as simple as he thought.
After pondering for a moment, he flew towards Luoyangfang City with his sword.
…..
After about half an hour, Xu Qing finally returned to his home.
At a small courtyard, this courtyard was left by her parents.
Expanding her consciousness, Xu Qing found her younger brother lying on the wooden bed, with wounds all over his body.
"Xiao Bai." Xu Qing immediately came to her brother's room, her voice choked up when she saw her brother looking like this.
Xu Qing's younger brother is named Xu Bai, a very simple name.
"Sister, why are you here?" Seeing his sister, Xu Bai wanted to get up, but with this movement, the injuries on his body immediately affected his nerves.
Not only was his skin injured, but his internal organs were also injured to varying degrees.
"If I don't come, you will be beaten to death." Xu Qing brushed her tears that was flowed down.
"Sister, I'm fine." Xu Bai endured the pain and said it.
His eyes were a little dodgy, as if he didn't want Xu Qing to know the reason.
Of course, Xu Qing knew his brother very well, and he could tell whether his brother was lying with just one look.
"Tell the truth to your sister, what happened and who hurt you?" Xu Qing asked.
"Sister, it's really okay. I just went to the mountains a few days ago and was accidentally injured by a Monster." Xu Bai explained.
"Speak quickly!" Xu Qing didn't believe her brother's words at all, and her voice became stern.
"Sister, I told you not to be angry."
Xu Bai knew that he couldn't hide it at this time.
After a moment of silence, he said, "Lu Shan reached the sixth level of perfection some time ago, but she still couldn't break through.
I wanted to help her buy a High Grade Spirit Gathering Pill, but You also know that the High Grade Spirit Gathering Pill requires one hundred Spirit Stones, so I asked someone to borrow some Spirit Stones.
But I didn't expect that Lu Shan's breakthrough failed, so I asked someone to borrow another two hundred Spirit Stones and bought her two Spirit Gathering Pills.
During this time, I have been working hard to earn Spirit Stones, but before I could collect enough Spirit Stones, the person who lent me the Spirit Stones came to my door and asked me to return the Spirit Stones immediately.
He also said that I should pay back a thousand Spirit Stones.
I argued with them, but they didn't listen at all.
I was so angry that I started fighting with them..."
"When did it happen?" Xu Qing asked.
She knew Lu Shan, she was their neighbour, she was two years younger than Xu Bai, and she grew up together with Xu Bai.
She didn't think anything about her brother buying pills for Lu Shan.
"Two months ago." Xu Bai replied.
"In two months, they asked you to pay back a thousand Spirit Stones. Why don't they just go and rob it!" Xu Qing said angrily.
She now understands that her brother has encountered a loan shark, "Tell me who they are, and I will seek justice for you."
"Oh, it is natural to pay back debts. What kind of justice do you want?"
At this moment, several young men suddenly came in from outside the courtyard gate.
