Rise of the Sword Son-in-Law

"No, Xu Ping'an, you can't kill me. If you do, you'll all die," Chen Tianqing, looking at Xu Ping'an walking towards him, was overwhelmed with fear. At this moment, Xu Nian's left hand was holding the sword, and his pierced palm was bloody, giving off an extremely bloodthirsty aura. Chen Tianqing was truly frightened. Xu Ping'an had killed two Third Rank experts. Although he seemed to be on his last legs, Chen Tianqing still felt Xu Ping'an could kill him. Xu Ping'an didn't pay any attention to Chen Tianqing's words, and instead he rushed towards him at great speed. Since they had already offended Chen Tianqing, they couldn't leave a threat behind. "Die!" Xu Ping'an quickly swung his sword, deploying the first move of the Sky-breaking Sword Decision, Mountain-breaking. With one slash, the Sword Radiance was foreboding and full of killing intent. "Seeking death!" Just then, a thunderous shout echoed. A terrifying True Yuan instantly transformed into a huge True Yuan palm slamming towards Xu Ping'an. "A Fourth Rank expert!" Xu Ping'an was startled and immediately retreated explosively. "Boom!" The massive palm struck down, leaving a giant palm imprint on the ground in an instant. Although Xu Ping'an dodged the palm, he was still sent flying by the terrifying True Yuan Vigor Qi. "Puh!" Blood spurted wildly, and his bones felt like they were about to fall apart. Xu Ping'an watched the newcomer with the utmost sharpness in his eyes. A Fourth Rank expert, and moreover, a high-level one at the Seventh Layer Realm. With such strength, killing him would be as easy as flipping his hand. "Uncle Wei, you're here, that's great," Chen Tianqing said ecstatically. With Uncle Wei here, he wouldn't die. Not only would he not die, but Xu Ping'an would also have to. "Your Highness, I was worried about you, so I came to check, fortunately arriving in time, otherwise a great disaster would have almost unfolded," the arrival said anxiously. "It's good that you're here, Uncle Wei, kill him!" Chen Tianqing immediately pointed at Xu Ping'an and ordered. Xu Ping'an furrowed his brows, his expression becoming extremely grave. A Fourth Rank expert! It was somewhat unexpected. Was he going to fall here today? Li Qingyi was also frowning tightly. A Fourth Rank expert was beyond her ability to contend with, even her entire Li Family would not be a match for him. What to do now? Was she really going to watch Xu Ping'an die before her eyes? "Good, this man dared to injure His Highness, he must undoubtedly die," Wei Yang said immediately, his pair of black eyes looked at Xu Ping'an as if he were looking at a dead man. Xu Ping'an took a deep breath and said to Li Qingyi, "You go. I may not be able to help you after all. Please take care of Uncle Sun and Uncle Tang. If I don't die today, I will thank you for your help another day." "You…" Li Qingyi started to say something but stopped. "Don't worry, I'm not that easy to kill. Even if a Fourth Rank wants to take my life, they'll get bitten back fiercely," Xu Ping'an's eyes were as cold as blades. Beyond the Thunder Devouring Sword, he still had some tricks up his sleeve. Such as burning his Qi-Blood, burning his life force, but such methods came at a great cost and were not to be used lightly unless absolutely necessary. "Alright!" Li Qingyi clenched her teeth tightly and finally responded. At her words, a small smile appeared at the corner of Xu Ping'an's mouth as he looked at the Fourth Rank expert and said lightly, "If I don't die today, I will eradicate your entire Tianlong County Prince's Mansion." "Courting death!" Wei Yang yelled. Immediately, he reached out to grab Xu Ping'an, with powerful True Yuan surging, creating a strong suction force as if to pull Xu Ping'an over. Xu Ping'an couldn't withstand such terrifying True Yuan Vigor Qi and his form uncontrollably moved towards Wei Yang. "It seems I have no choice but to fight with my back to the river," Xu Ping'an said calmly, but his heart was resolute. The next moment, he was ready to burn his internal Qi-Blood, unleashing combat power beyond his limits. "Clang!" However, at that moment, a supreme Sword Radiance shot out instantly. Targeting Wei Yang. "Who?" Wei Yang was greatly alarmed, for he felt an immense threat emanating from the sword strike. Clearly, the newcomer was no less powerful than him. Left with no choice, he had to abandon his attempt to pull Xu Ping'an along and defend against the sword attack with all his might. "Boom!" Wei Yang was forced to retreat several steps, and his eyes looked sharply towards the newcomer. Xu Ping'an was also somewhat surprised, turning to look in the direction from which the Sword Qi had burst forth. "How can a disciple of the Beichen Sword Sect allow themselves to be slain so easily?" Just then, a middle-aged figure stepped forward out of thin air, instantly appearing in front of Xu Ping'an. "Elder Ge?" Li Qingyi's face brightened with joy at once. The person who had arrived was none other than Elder Ge. Both Zhou Mengyue and Chen Tianqing's expressions changed. Him again! Last time, when they were about to deal with Xu Ping'an, it was he who intervened to stop them. And now, him again. "Ge Lie, this boy has killed two leaders of the Tianlong County Prince's Mansion. You mean to protect him?" Wei Yang immediately shouted in anger. "He is someone from our Beichen Sword Sect, untouchable by others," Ge Lie said coldly. Wei Yang's brow furrowed slightly. The other man's Cultivation was one Layer below his own, but his strength seemed no weaker than his own. If it came down to a fight, he might not be at an advantage. "Elder Ge, do you truly wish to make an enemy of the Tianlong County Prince's Mansion? Believe it or not, I can have my father annihilate you," Chen Tianqing said furiously. "I am not making an enemy out of the Tianlong County Prince's Mansion. I am merely protecting the disciples of the Beichen Sword Sect. You too are a disciple of our sect. If he were to truly kill you, I would also intervene," Ge Lie said. Upon hearing this, Chen Tianqing's brows furrowed tightly. Xu Ping'an's brow also furrowed for a moment. It seemed that today, Chen Tianqing would not be killed. "Your Highness, let's leave," Wei Yang spoke up. A strong reluctance surged in Chen Tianqing's eyes. Was Xu Ping'an really going to get away with killing their two leaders? But with Ge Lie there, he truly couldn't kill Xu Ping'an. "Hmph, Xu Ping'an, consider yourself lucky today. Next time, I will surely kill you," Chen Tianqing said angrily. He then glanced at Li Qingyi before sweeping away his sleeves and leaving. Zhou Mengyue's brow was slightly furrowed, but she did not follow. Xu Ping'an looked at Zhou Mengyue, and then at Elder Ge beside him, and ultimately gave up. With Elder Ge there, Meng Yue couldn't be killed. "Thank you, Elder Ge," Xu Ping'an finally said gratefully. "I am but following the Sect Master's orders, you need not thank me. Besides, I haven't really done much," Ge Lie said with a slight smile. Glancing at the arm injury on Xu Ping'an, he felt a slight surprise. He had arrived quite early, and all that Xu Ping'an had displayed earlier truly shocked him. A Second Rank defeating a Third Rank? And he had killed two of them? The boy was not only ruthless towards others but also towards himself. Trading injury for killing, even he might not be able to do it as perfectly as Xu Ping'an had. "You should heal your injuries as soon as possible. If the broken meridians are not repaired in time, you might suffer lasting damage," Ge Lie said. Xu Ping'an nodded and popped a Fourth Rank Resurrection Pill into his mouth. His injuries were indeed severe; if not healed in time, his arm might be beyond repair. Fortunately, the powerful medicinal effects of the Fourth Rank Resurrection Pill should allow the meridians in his arm to regrow. "It seems I should refine my own Spiritual Artifact soon, so as to avoid blowing up my own arm next time," Xu Ping'an mused to himself. With a Spiritual Artifact in hand, plus the power of the Thunder Devouring Sword, such incidents wouldn't happen again. Moreover, he knew he must also strengthen his Physical Body.
