"Are you going to die or not?"
The question was, who wanted to die? Who was willing to die?
Did Cao Hongwen want to die?
He didn't.
But if he had to die, he would rather choose to commit suicide than be smashed to death alive like a hammer or club by the blood-soaked devil in front of him.
Yes, his cultivation was strong, and his physique was strong, which meant it would be difficult for him to be thrown to death instantly. He could endure longer than Bu Zhihuo Jingtian.
This also meant he would suffer more.
"Who the hell do you think I am?"
Wan Lei grinned sinisterly.
"I am from the Cao family, I am..."
"I know."
When he saw his eyes light up, and combined with what he heard while going upstairs, how could he not know that the other party was a member of the Cao family, rumored to be fond of other people's wives.
But so what?
I am not from this world. Even if the Four Great Experts were here, I wouldn't be afraid. Why should I be wary of some damn background?
What a joke!
"So... so, the one you just killed was Bu Zhihuo..."
"What does it matter?"
Wan Lei's gaze remained cold, chilling to the bone.
"The Bu Zhihuo family will not let you go. If you kill me and offend the Cao family... the Cao family will not let you go either. Da Feng Novel Network.
If you come with me, I can help you secure... a future..."
Cao Hongwen stammered. The pressure and fear this young man gave him were too great, so great that he could no longer force himself to calm down. He even forgot that he had cultivation and could counterattack.
Although, even if he counterattacked, he would still not be a match for the person in front of him.
"Who cares."
"Ah... ah?"
"Do I care? The moment you harbored evil intentions towards my wife, you became a dead man."
In his anger, Wan Lei couldn't help but fall into the trap of villains talking too much, but it didn't matter. Here, no one was qualified to attack him.
When your strength can crush everything, when you can extinguish all possibilities of a comeback, a little more talk is fine.
"In Great Jin, besides the Four Great Experts... no one can ignore our Cao family."
"What a coincidence."
Wan Lei grinned.
"There's something you might not know. Actually... I am Li Mei Xian."
"Ah?!"
Cao Hongwen's eyes widened immediately, followed by an icy chill throughout his body.
Could this young man, who looked so young, actually be Li Mei Xian, who had been renowned for over a thousand years in Great Jin?
This... how could this be possible?
Why was he still so young?
Could it be that the Samadhi True Fire, rumored to be the most powerful, most yang, most righteous, and most pure, also had a rejuvenating effect?
In that instant, Cao Hongwen suddenly thought of a rumor that was not widely spread, and it was not widely spread precisely because no one believed it.
The rumor said that Li Mei Xian was not one person, but a legacy.
Could it be that the young man in front of him was the successor of Samadhi True Fire in this generation?
Yes, it must be so.
His strength was that of one of the Four Great Experts.
Naturally, he could kill people without even asking.
No matter who you are, no matter how powerful you are, you are not as powerful as me.
At this moment, Cao Hongwen accepted his fate.
He laughed up to the sky.
It was his bad luck to choose this place to meet an old friend and encounter the only one of the Four Great Experts he had never met.
It was his bad luck to have evil thoughts and covet someone else's wife, daring to lust after Li Mei Xian's wife.
He who hunts all day is pecked in the eye by the eagle.
Wan Lei did not know what he was thinking, nor did he care to know. He just wanted to toy with his enemy again before killing him.
Wan Lei gathered a bolt of lightning in his hand, which enveloped his fist and smashed towards Cao Hongwen's head.
Suddenly, Cao Hongwen's expression changed drastically.
You lied to me!
Li Mei Xian uses fire, not lightning!
Who are you?!
Unfortunately, he had no time to ask, and Wan Lei had no time to answer him.
Cao Hongwen's consciousness remained at this moment, and his life also came to an end.
The headless corpse fell, and blood flowed from his neck, soaking the ground.
The people around screamed in terror and fled in all directions.
On this day, they had experienced too many things that they could never imagine in their lives.
That fatty was smashed into a pulp like a hammer, and that thin man's head was blown off with a single punch.
It was too brutal.
It was too bloody.
It was too terrifying.
This day, this scene, was destined to become a lingering nightmare for these people.
Perhaps, they wouldn't be able to sleep at night.
Perhaps, one day, they would wake up in a cold sweat, with the demon right before their eyes.
Wan Lei said nothing and headed straight for the river next to him, diving in.
He was too dirty. The blood and flesh from that dead fatty had stuck all over him.
It felt good to fight, but after the fight, when he calmed down, the pungent stench made him nauseous.
He couldn't let his little Yu sister smell this smell all the time, so he should wash himself clean.
Little did he know that his casual killing of two insignificant ants had directly caused the alliance, yet to be formed, between the Cao family and the Bu Zhihuo family to collapse.
Wan Lei and the other two left, waving their sleeves, not taking away a single cloud.
The wine couldn't be drunk, but they managed to bring back two jars. The old man was very happy, but what Wan Lei cared about was the accompanying dishes.
Spring of the twelfth year of Jian'an.
The third master of the Cao family died on the territory of the Bu Zhihuo family. The Cao family was furious and announced to the world, demanding an explanation from the Bu Zhihuo family.
The Cao family sharpened their knives, mobilized troops and generals. The beastly army merged with the Cao family army, a total of eight hundred thousand troops marching south.
The storm was brewing, and the common people knew that a great war was about to begin.
The Bu Zhihuo family's response was that they believed the culprit was the Xi family, because their chief steward had also died.
After investigation, someone provided portraits of the three people who killed the third master of the Cao family and the chief steward of the Bu Zhihuo family.
Upon the identification of the second master of the Bu Zhihuo family, these were people from the Xi family, as she had seen them. These three people had rescued Xi Ren Yuanjun.
The Cao family did not believe it, nor did the common people, believing that the Bu Zhihuo family had found scapegoats.
However, the Cao family believed it, for political necessity.
The Cao family was furious and sent troops to attack the Xi family in retaliation. The Xi family army withdrew from the Bu Zhihuo family's territory to defend, but under the offensive of the Cao family, they were defeated step by step.
According to the Cao family's plan, they could still attack the Xi family together with the Bu Zhihuo family, as originally planned.
The Xi family could not withstand the dual offensive of the Cao family and the Bu Zhihuo family and was forced to negotiate peace with the Bu Zhihuo family.
The Bu Zhihuo family worried about the Cao family becoming too dominant. They also coveted the Sacred Fire and did not want to disrupt the current balance. Moreover, they did not want to believe the Cao family's promises, so they agreed to peace and united with the Xi family to resist the Cao family.
The great war between the three families began.
War swept across the entire land.
From then on, the world descended into chaos.
