Chapter 157

Xu Daokui was suddenly stunned, and those martial masters from the 形意门 (Shape-Intent Fist Sect) burst into furious curses!

Everyone turned their heads toward the gate of the villa to see a man and a woman walking in slowly. The one in front was Chu Tianhe, while Yue Linglong followed closely behind him!

"I heard the Xu family has been looking for me?"

Chu Tianhe walked forward with his hands behind his back, meeting no obstruction all the way into the courtyard of the villa, his gaze slowly falling upon Xu Daokui!

"You are Chu Tianhe?!"

Hearing this, Xu Daokui's eyes instantly filled with rage, trembling all over with anger!

"Indeed."

Chu Tianhe nodded and said, "I already had a message passed along. You should have known I would come today."

"Up! Tear him to pieces!"

Hearing Chu Tianhe reveal his identity, the Shape-Intent Fist Sect masters, who had just been boasting before Xu Daokui, instantly let out a roar. Without a second word, they grabbed their weapons and charged at Chu Tianhe.

Sabers, spears, swords, halberds, axes, hooks, forks, crescent-moon spades, meteor hammers—the eighteen traditional weapons were all on full display, directly surrounding Chu Tianhe in a tight circle.

Yet Chu Tianhe remained just as he was, his gaze fixed entirely on Xu Daokui as he continued walking forward with his hands behind his back, paying no heed to these Shape-Intent Fist Sect masters whatsoever, not even feeling the slightest urge to fight back!

"A bunch of trash!"

Seeing this, the corners of Yue Linglong's mouth curled up into a faint, cold smile. In the next instant, her figure surged forward with terrifying speed. At the same time, a short blade flashed in her hand, cutting through the air at blinding speed as she slashed wildly toward the Shape-Intent Fist Sect masters!

"Swish, swish, swish..."

In a split second, a sky-full of cold gleams arrived instantaneously, and wherever the blade's edge passed, blood instantly sprayed into the air!

"Ah... My hand!"

"Puff..."

"I... This..."

Yue Linglong's strike was utterly ruthless. In an instant, the ground was littered with severed limbs and broken bones. Those ancient martial arts experts from the Shape-Intent Fist Sect, who had boasted of being masters, were reduced to stray dogs under Yue Linglong's blade. Six of them were killed on the spot, and the rest had their arms hacked off, completely losing any combat capability!

Watching the myriad masters of the Shape-Intent Fist Sect fail to withstand even a single move from Yue Linglong, Xu Daokui panicked instantly, taking an instinctive step backward!

Meanwhile, Chu Tianhe, walking forward with his hands behind his back, entered the main hall of the Xu family villa without the slightest hindrance, and spoke: "Didn't the Xu family want Chu's life?"

"Now Chu's life is right here. If you have the ability, come and take it!"

Chu Tianhe casually turned and sat down on a chair in the main hall, acting as though he were the head of the Xu family himself, showing not the slightest courtesy as his gaze swept over Xu Daokui!

"Audacious!"

"How dare a scum like you act so insolently in my Xu family!"

Just as Chu Tianhe's voice faded, a man rushed out from the side hall—none other than the Xu family's ultimate powerhouse, Xu Hai!

This man possessed formidable ancient martial arts strength and was a fierce warrior in the overseas mercenary groups, with countless lives on his hands. Hearing that trouble had struck the Xu family, he had been summoned back from overseas by Xu Daokui.

"You are also a member of the Xu family?"

Chu Tianhe shifted his gaze to Xu Hai and asked coldly.

"I am called Xu Hai. Ever heard of me?" Xu Hai was quite a prominent figure in the mercenary world. Many commanders of the Divine Martial Guards had heard his name, and would show him a modicum of respect upon meeting.

"Never."

Chu Tianhe answered quite bluntly. The very instant his voice fell, his right hand slammed fiercely onto the table!

"Clang!"

A nail that had been embedded in the table was instantly shaken out by Chu Tianhe's palm strike. Immediately after, Chu Tianhe flicked two fingers of his right hand!

"Swish!"
