Du Xiaoqing was the first to storm into the courtyard, and the guards he encountered on the way didn’t even ask questions before launching attacks against him.

But these people weren’t even in the Inner Power Realm, so how could they possibly be a match for Du Xiaoqing.

Don’t think Du Xiaoqing got defeated in just a few moves by Qin Yuesheng; that was only because the opponent was Qin Yuesheng. His own strength is by no means weak, or else he wouldn’t be ranked ninth on the Jiangnan Hundred Soldiers List.

Du Xiaoqing swept his hands, and the guards instantly fell under his blows.

Qin Yuesheng walked behind Du Xiaoqing unhurriedly, letting him clear the obstacles, and soon the two arrived at Miss Lu’s residence.

Before entering, Qin Yuesheng, with his extremely keen senses, could hear from inside a burst of laughter and banter, with a hint of teasing that sparked imagination.

"That Miss Lu, playing around with her paramours again, yet she tricked me into thinking she was busy." Du Xiaoqing turned back to Qin Yuesheng and respectfully said, "Young Master, let me teach this woman a lesson."

Qin Yuesheng nodded, "Go ahead."

Whoosh!

Du Xiaoqing leaped forward, his right palm struck out, and his Inner Strength transformed into a giant palm that violently pressed down, instantly crushing the entire roof.

It was quite a commotion; at the same time, three figures shot out from the rubble, one woman and two men, all disheveled and barely clothed.

"Du Blockhead! Are you seeking death by coming here to cause trouble?" the woman shouted at Du Xiaoqing.

Upon hearing the voice, Qin Yuesheng couldn’t help but admire her; this Miss Lu is indeed a rare beauty, and Du Xiaoqing wasn’t lying.

Beauty is not in the skin but in the bones, with an orchid-like grace and eyes that captivate.

Miss Lu’s appearance was indeed commendable.

However, as a man who had walked through Ten Thousand Flowers City and witnessed the nearly celestial beauty of the City Lord and the Queen, Qin Yuesheng had developed quite a resistance to beauties.

"Lu Enchantress, I have serious business with you this time. If you don’t want to die, better behave yourself," Du Xiaoqing said coldly as he landed on the ground.

The Twelve Linked Rings is an alliance, and he usually has a good relationship with Miss Lu, so Du Xiaoqing planned to persuade her to surrender first. Otherwise, once Qin Yuesheng took action, Miss Lu wouldn’t stand a chance.

But Miss Lu sneered, "Die? You want me dead? Haha, what a big joke, Du Xiaoqing, which nerve of yours misfires?"

Du Xiaoqing sidled over and respectfully pointed at Qin Yuesheng with his palm, "This is Young Master Qin, the future head of the Twelve Linked Rings. If you don’t want to die, surrender to him now, and you might save your life."

After saying this, Du Xiaoqing turned his back to Qin Yuesheng and kept winking at Miss Lu, hoping she would understand his hint and express her willingness to surrender to Qin Yuesheng.

But Du Xiaoqing forgot that masters all have their pride. Miss Lu, who didn’t even know who Qin Yuesheng was, naturally wouldn’t just surrender so easily at his words.

"What Young Master Qin or Young Master Li, I’ve never heard of them. Du Blockhead, get out of here quick, or this madam will really lose her temper."

Du Xiaoqing shook his head helplessly. If she refused to surrender, then she could only be beaten. The reason Qin Yuesheng hadn’t killed him before was that he had no one to use, and now that he had Du Xiaoqing as a pawn, it was unlikely he’d be lenient again.

Du Xiaoqing didn’t think highly of Miss Lu’s fate.

Even if Qin Yuesheng wanted to preserve the strength of the Twelve Linked Rings, he couldn’t possibly keep all those formidable troublemakers, as it wouldn’t suit his full takeover of the Twelve Linked Rings.

"Lu Enchantress, I’ll ask you one last time, will you surrender or not?" Du Xiaoqing shouted.

"Surrender your damn head!" Miss Lu waved her hand, launching a strike of Inner Strength that crashed towards Du Xiaoqing and Qin Yuesheng.

This move made her intentions clear and cut off her own retreat.

Du Xiaoqing sighed helplessly.

Qin Yuesheng drew his sword and slashed.

Miss Lu’s Inner Strength instantly dissipated, completely no match for Qin Yuesheng.

"Hmm?" Seeing Qin Yuesheng break her attack with one slash, Miss Lu was quite surprised. This person seemed strong. She had never seen him in the Twelve Linked Rings before, wondering who he was.

Since Miss Lu didn’t plan to surrender, Qin Yuesheng certainly wouldn’t waste time with her, ready to kill her and then support someone else to replace her.

With so many available people in the Twelve Linked Rings, he wasn’t afraid of not finding the right and obedient one. 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

The Celestial Demon’s Evil Blade slashed out, shadows of mountains hovering in midair, all crashing towards Miss Lu.

Watching the multitude of mountains smash towards her, Miss Lu’s expression couldn’t help changing, her palms swiftly danced like butterflies, instantly filling the sky with palm shadows that greeted the incoming attack like a swarm of butterflies.

Bang bang bang!

Butterflies collided with mountains, but were immediately crushed into pieces, transformed into countless light spots, a scene both radiant and magnificent.

Beneath this beauty, however, lay great danger.

The Seven Great Limits of Heaven and Earth: Mountain Collapse, part of the Divine Skill Saber Skill, boasted power unimaginable to ordinary Inner Strength experts.

When the mountains shattered, the enormous power engulfed Miss Lu, determined to crush her to pieces.

"Miss Lu!"
