Rise of the Sword Son-in-Law

"You deserve to die, do you not know that Uncle Tang and Uncle Sun have both shown great kindness to my Xu Family?" Xu Ping’an’s eyes were piercingly cold to the extreme.

"Kid, what are you trying to say? Someone wants your life, makes me take over the Xu Family ancestral home, and forces you to show up. They stick their noses where they don’t belong and get in my way, who is to blame? I have already shown them mercy, otherwise, they would already be two corpses," Chen Hai said coldly, not taking Xu Ping’an seriously at all.

A mere Cultivator at the Fourth Layer of the Sea-Splitting Realm, he could crush him to death with one hand.

Daring to speak harshly to him?

Xu Ping’an didn’t bother to say more, as for the person behind this, there was no need to say, it was either the Zhou Family or Chen Tianqing.

"Since you’re seeking death, then don’t blame me. You guys, go, cripple him for me," Chen Hai snorted coldly and commanded the five people beside him.

The cultivation of these five was actually not low, they were all Cultivators at the First Layer of the Sea-Splitting Realm.

Five of them working together against a Cultivator of the Fourth Layer of the Sea-Splitting Realm should be doable.

But Xu Ping’an was no ordinary Fourth Layer Cultivator of the Sea-Splitting Realm.

"Kill!"

With a roar, the five charged at Xu Ping’an.

A malicious glint flashed in Xu Ping’an’s eyes.

"Seeking death!"

Xu Ping’an made his move instantly, with no intention of showing mercy.

The sharp sword in his hand slashed horizontally, fast as a ghostly shadow.

One of the minions was cut in half at the waist by Xu Ping’an’s slash.

"Ah!"

The man let out an unbearably miserable cry before he breathed his last.

The other four’s pupils constricted, a look of terror flashing in their eyes.

To cleave a man in two with a single stroke?

This man’s attacks were so ruthless?

Sun Qiu and Tang Qingheng by the side were also extremely surprised.

Although they had heard that Xu Ping’an seemed capable of cultivating, they had never seen it in action, and now, seeing Xu Ping’an’s decisiveness in killing, they were incredibly shocked.

Ping’an has grown up!

Li Qingyi was slightly taken aback too, this being the first time she had seen Xu Ping’an so furious.

It had to be said, an angry Xu Ping’an was truly ruthless in his attacks.

"Hmph!"

And at that moment, Xu Ping’an had already confronted the second person.

This one was even more tragic, having his right arm slashed off by Xu Ping’an before being cleaved in two from top to bottom.

The third person didn’t even have time to react before his head was severed by Xu Ping’an.

For Xu Ping’an, facing them was as simple as slicing vegetables.

The remaining two were so frightened they were ready to split, and they immediately tried to flee.

But Xu Ping’an gave them no chance to escape. With one step, he chased after them.

He punched out, blasting open a disciple’s chest, leaving it a blur of blood and flesh.

The other minion had half his head cut off by Xu Ping’an with a sword.

From beginning to end, Xu Ping’an killed them all in one move each.

Tang Qingheng and Sun Qiu were astounded.

Even they could not achieve the feat of instantly killing five people like Xu Ping’an.

Li Qingyi was similarly astonished, Xu Ping’an’s strength must already be on par with the Initial Stage of the Ninth Layer of the Sea-Splitting Realm.

Keep in mind, Xu Ping’an’s cultivation is still only at the Fourth Layer of the Sea-Splitting Realm.

If he reaches the Ninth Layer of the Sea-Splitting Realm, wouldn’t he be a match even for Third Rank experts?

Chen Hai’s face changed dramatically, his eyes revealing a grave expression.

The power Xu Ping’an displayed far exceeded his expectations.

"Damn it, didn’t the Zhou Family say that this Xu Ping’an was only at the Fourth Layer of the Sea-Splitting Realm? His strength is at least at the Eighth Layer," Chen Hai cursed inwardly.

But now he had no way out, as long as he could stall for a moment, waiting for the Zhou Family people to arrive.

Xu Ping’an would undoubtedly die.

Xu Ping’an turned his head to look at Chen Hai, his eyes ice cold.

"Xu Ping’an, your strength has truly surprised me, don’t you want to know who sent me?" Chen Hai’s eyes flickered as he spoke.

"Trying to buy time? I know who it is even if you don’t say, Zhou Family’s head, Zhou Kuiyu," Xu Ping’an said with a cold laugh.

Xu Ping’an saw right through Chen Hai’s intention.

But the arrival of the Zhou Family was exactly what he wanted.

The Zhou Family tried to harm him time and again, and today, he would completely annihilate the Zhou Family.

"It seems you know," sneered Chen Hai. "How about we make a deal, Xu Ping’an? As long as you give me the ancestral home of the Xu Family, I’ll let you go now. Otherwise, once the Zhou Family’s people arrive, you won’t be able to escape."

"A deal? You’re not qualified to make one," Xu Ping’an snorted coldly.

Without wasting any more words, he headed towards Chen Hai to kill him.

Displaying the Ghost Cloud Step, it took him only three steps to arrive in front of Chen Hai.

A sword cleaved down, True Yuan surged, and Sword Qi was extremely fierce.

"So fast!"

Chen Hai was taken aback, hastily swinging his knife to defend.

However, a cold smile curled on the corners of Xu Ping’an’s lips as his True Yuan suddenly erupted, compressing to the extreme in an instant.

The speed of his sword strokes suddenly accelerated.

With one strike, the power surged several times over.

Chen Hai was greatly terrified.

He tried to dodge, but it was already too late.

With one slash, Xu Ping’an not only sent Chen Hai’s meteorite iron-grade combat knife flying but also severed Chen Hai’s entire right arm.

"Ah!"

Chen Hai clutched the severed part of his arm, retreating continuously while letting out miserable cries.

Sun Qiu and Tang Qingheng on the side were also extremely surprised.

Chen Hai was not even a match for a single move from Xu Ping’an?

"You severed Uncle Sun’s arm, so I’ll disable both of yours. You struck Uncle Tang thirty-six times, so I’ll return three hundred and sixty swords to you," Xu Ping’an said coldly.

Once again he transformed into a fleeting shadow, swinging the Meteorite Iron Sword.

Chen Hai was terribly frightened and tried to run away.

However, Xu Ping’an was simply too fast.

"Puchi!"

Xu Ping’an also severed Chen Hai’s left arm.

"Ah!"

Chen Hai let out an extremely miserable scream, staggering so much he almost fell.

Yet Xu Nian was full of murderous resolve.

His Sharp Sword continuously cleaved, creating a blur of residual images.

Each stroke was extremely fierce, cutting through flesh straight to the bone.

But each stroke ingeniously avoided Chen Hai’s vital points.

In just a moment, Xu Ping’an had slashed nearly a hundred times.

"Such quickness in swordplay, the use of the sword has reached an incredibly profound realm. This is something that even those who practice swordsmanship for ten years can’t achieve—to use the sword to such a degree," said Li Qingyi, utterly amazed.

Xu Ping’an’s sword speed was too fast.

And it wasn’t just fast, it was smooth and natural like flowing clouds and water, without the slightest obstruction.

It looked like random chopping, but his control over the strength and angle of each stroke was precise to the extreme.

Though Chen Hai’s vital points were spared, all of his meridians throughout his body were severed, not a single one remained intact.

"Ah!"

Chen Hai let out an extremely pitiful cry.

But Xu Ping’an did not stop; he continued to swing his sword in a relentless assault.

His figure flickered like a phantom.

This time, Chen Hai’s nose and ears were cut off by Xu Ping’an, and even his eyes were blinded.

One could say that Chen Hai’s current state was more agonizing than death itself.

A total of three hundred and sixty swords, not one more, not one fewer.

After three hundred and sixty swords, Chen Hai could no longer stand, having lost all five senses, he was no different from a dead person.

"So powerful!" Li Qingyi was astonished.

This was the first time she saw someone use the sword to such an extent.

Xu Ping’an sheathed his sword and stood still, exhaling a slight breath.

With his strength improved and the understanding of swordsmanship from his previous life, he had become increasingly adept at controlling the sword.

Memory awakening was the mastery by the mind, but now he was beginning to gradually let his body gain control of such abilities.

Once mastered, his strength would become even more formidable!
