Chapter 438 Tianxuan: It seems that I should also find a...

"Death!"

Just now, Tian Xuan's attention was attracted by Gai Nie and Wei Zhuang. So much so that, until Xiang Liang appeared in front of him while protecting Xiang Shao Yu, he remembered how big a hidden danger this uncle and nephew who had a deep hatred for him posed to the empire! If Gai Nie and Wei Zhuang, the brothers, were placed in front of him, and Xiang Liang and Xiang Shao Yu were uncle and nephew, he would execute them one by one.

Tianxuan was certain that the first person he would kill would be Xiang Shaoyu, the second would be Xiang Liang, the third would be Wei Zhuang, and the fourth would be Gai Nie, who knew the Qin Empire and Zheng Ge inside and out!

It doesn’t matter if Gai Nie and Wei Zhuang escaped, but Xiang Liang and his nephew must not escape!

With a thunderous roar, Tianxuan drew out the Hongming Sword and was ready to take action himself to send the uncle and nephew off.

The Qin soldiers who were surrounding and beating Xiang Liang's uncle and nephew saw that Tianxuan wanted to take action himself, so they hurriedly retreated a foot away, but still surrounded the uncle and nephew.

"The second move of the Seven Limits: Thunder!"

The prey that he was determined to catch was right in front of him, and Tianxuan used a powerful move. The "Thunder" style he used this time did not turn into dense lightning, and the sharp sword energy was placed in it. Instead, under Tianxuan's control, the thunder sword energy was highly compressed, creating a huge thunder ball that seemed to be able to tear the void, emerging from the pure blade of the Hongming Sword, and bombarding Xiang Liang's uncle and nephew.

Tianxuan vaguely remembered that in his previous life, in the world of Shenbing Xuanqi, the Xiang family of Chu State was the descendant of Lei Tong, the reincarnation of the Great Thunder Immortal in Heaven. Although Lei Tong was deprived of his divine position by Taiyi Zhenxian, the confidant of the Jade Emperor, and demoted to a mortal when he was dealing with the reincarnation of the Great Rakshasa, the Purple Thunder Divine Art and Purple Thunder Sword Technique created by the Great Thunder Immortal, as well as a Thunder Sword that could still be regarded as a Heavenly Divine Weapon even though it had lost most of its divine power, were passed down from generation to generation in the Xiang family.

When it was passed down to the Overlord of Western Chu, Xiang Yu, he not only mastered the seven purple thunder strikes created by the Great Thunder Immortal, but also created the eighth strike before committing suicide at Wujiang River: Heavenly Thunder Strike to Kill the Real Dragon. Even the ninth purple thunder strike from the hands of Xiang Wuhen: God Thunder Demon Shocks Heaven's Punishment. Tracing back to the origin, the reason why it was born is also inseparable from Xiang Yu.

Therefore, many people suspected that Xiang Yu was the reincarnation of the great thunder immortal who was stripped of his divine power.

In order to eliminate the biggest threat to the empire and pay tribute to the future King of Western Chu, Xiang Yu, Tianxuan chose to use a sword technique similar to the Purple Thunder Sword Technique to send the uncle and nephew on their way.

"Shao Yu, be careful."

Xiang Liang was seriously injured. Even if Tianxuan let him leave the mechanical city and Duanmu Rong treated him, Xiang Liang's life could not be saved. He could hold on until now only because of his passion. Tianxuan's "Thunderbolt" style turned into a highly condensed thunder ball that tore through the void. Xiang Liang could be sure that if he was hit, he would die.

Amidst the exclamations, Xiang Liang blocked in front of Xiang Shaoyu, intending to use his own death to buy a glimmer of life for his nephew Xiang Shaoyu. However, the difference in their skills was huge, and Tianxuan's condition was much better than Xiang Liang, who was only left with one breath. Xiang Liang's blocking was like a moth flying into a flame.

Bang!Bang!Bang!
When Xiang Liang's body was about to be swallowed by the thunder ball, round balls were thrown from the mountain roads in all directions. The moment the round balls touched the real objects, they exploded, and endless dust spread out, covering his eyes.

"Lime powder? Fan Zeng?"

Tian Xuan knew what these things were instantly filled with snow-white powder in front of him. Putting the past and the present together, he guessed the identity of the person who was making the move.

Yan Dan used the Mechanical City as bait, and Tian Xuan followed suit and focused his attention on the Mechanical City and Mohism. As a result, he forgot a very important thing: that is, in the Xiang family of Chu State, there are not only valiant warriors like Xiang Liang and Xiang Shaoyu, but also a resourceful Fan Zeng who is said to be a descendant of Fan Li!

Amid the exclamation, Tian Xuan held his breath, and retracted the Hongming Sword that had been slashed out, protecting himself. Although his eyes were closed, his sharp spiritual perception gained from thousands of battles, commonly known as the mind's eye, was open, alerting everything around him. Whoosh!
Suddenly, a trace of murderous intent came from Tianxuan's left. With his eyes closed, Tianxuan swung the Hongming Knife and slashed towards the direction he sensed. In a flash, his spiritual sense told Tianxuan that his knife had cut off the enemy's head.

puff!puff!puff!
The flying lime powder did not disperse for a long time, and people kept hiding in the lime powder to attack Tianxuan. However, Tianxuan's mind was open, and the Hongming Knife, under the control of the knife heart, slashed again and again. Even though he lost the assistance of the naked eye, the opened mind's eye made the cooperation between Tianxuan and the Hongming Knife not inferior to the naked eye.

Every time the Hongming Sword is swung, at least one person will die under Tianxuan's sword.

"Damn Fan Zeng!"

After a dozen breaths, the lime powder was completely attached to the rocks, wood, and the ground. At this time, Tianxuan opened his eyes again. When he looked around, he saw more than a dozen men in coarse linen clothes and rough skin lying on the ground. Needless to say, these people must be working for the Xiang family of Chu.

As for Xiang Shaoyu?
Although this person was not the first on Tianxuan's list of people he wanted to kill the most, he was also among the top three targets. He has disappeared without a trace.

"It seems that I should also recruit a resourceful strategist." Tian Xuancui scolded, "Or, transfer one from the Western Regions."

"Your Majesty, I completely agree with this."

Before Tianxuan finished speaking, a sarcastic voice sounded, saying words of agreement, but full of ridicule. With a glance, he saw Bai Feng, the leader of the Four Heavenly Kings of Liusha, like a phoenix dancing in the sky, or even more like an elusive ghost, running into a mountain path more than ten feet away and disappearing from sight.

"After all the painstaking planning, we only managed to capture Yan Dan, Xiao Yao Zi, Chi Lian, and Xiang Liang!"

Bai Feng also escaped, along with Xiang Shaoyu, and Gai Nie and Wei Zhuang, who were probably rescued by Fan Zeng. Tian Xuan almost lost the battle because he ignored Fan Zeng's existence.

"If I hadn't forced Duanmu Rong, Gao Jianli, and Master Ban to join the Empire, then I would be the biggest fool in the world!"

Well!
While Tianxuan was speaking, the fighting had already come to an end.

A snow-white and delicate hand of the Moon Goddess, with round and smooth fingertips and extremely neatly trimmed nails, appeared at Xiaoyaozi's heart. With just a slight burst of her power, she could shatter the internal organs of the leader of the Human Sect. On the other side, a strange blood-red jade hand appeared on Chi Lian's slender neck like a swan, and it strangled him tightly.

The neck was strangled, causing Chi Lian to groan in pain.

The owner of this blood-red and strange hand, which looked like the hand of a devil, Da Siming, the head of the Fire Department of the Yin-Yang Clan, cast an inquiring look at Tianxuan:

“Don’t kill her!” Tian Xuan calmed down and said calmly, “Chi Lian and Zi Nu are both master and apprentice as well as sisters. She is also the only sister of Imperial Censor Han Fei. If I kill her, it will be difficult to explain to Zi Nu and Han Fei!”

After receiving Tianxuan's order, Da Siming swept his empty left hand across Chi Lian's body and tapped several acupoints.
