True Immortal of the Netherworld

At the moment when the leader of the road bandits fell down.

Seeing that his eldest brother and third brother all went to report to the King of Hell in the blink of an eye. The only remaining fat road bandit shouted loudly: "Third brother, eldest brother!". Then he threw the broad-backed sword in his hands in the direction of Xu Yang.

In desperation, although there was no trick at all in this throw, he used all his life's strength and 120% of his magic power.

The broadsword cut through the void and made a whining sound, which seemed to be the cry of its owner. The broadsword pierced Xu Yang's chest like an arrow, and was in front of Xu Yang in the blink of an eye.

Xu Yang had just fired three fire cones with all his strength, but due to the momentum of his body rushing forward, it was already difficult to avoid the knife in front of him in time.

But this was all part of Xu Yang's calculations.

At the critical moment, silver light flashed in Xu Yang's other hand, and the stainless steel shield was already in hand. At the same time, his mana increased rapidly, and the silver brilliance on the surface of the stainless steel shield prevailed.

He held the stainless steel shield diagonally in front of him and bent his body downward slightly.

At this moment, Xu Yang suddenly noticed another flash of spiritual pressure behind him that made him uneasy.

Everything happened so suddenly, the body that was already tilting downward suddenly leaned down, and the whole person almost fell to the ground. The stainless steel shield covered him like a turtle shell.

The next moment, a dazzling sharp silver light brushed past Xu Yang's stainless steel shield.

The sharp spiritual pressure brought by the silver light hit Xu Yang's stainless steel shield, making a dull buzzing sound.

Xu Yang put his other hand on the ground and barely managed to keep himself from lying on the ground. But the mana that was already excessively output in his body just now rolled violently after being hit by this brute force, and a dizzy and vomiting feeling came to his mind.

"Just the hidden weapon thrown has such powerful spiritual pressure. Could this person's realm be the Peiyuan realm?" Xu Yang muttered in his heart, and he couldn't help but sweat broke out on his forehead. Xu Yang was not yet confident enough to fight directly with the Peiyuan realm monks. .

Immediately afterwards, a clang of metal colliding came into my ears.

The sharp silver light shot incredibly onto the flying sword.

The broadsword that originally struck like a fierce tiger now turned into a chicken, and was instantly cut off by the silver light.

The broken sword was spun at high speed and flew several feet away, making a buzzing sound that seemed to be its last cry.

The sharp silver light did not stop for a moment, drawing a strange white line in the air and flying toward the fat robber opposite.

The robbers' attention was focused on Xu Yang, and they were caught off guard by the sudden blow.

As the white line crossed its neck, a head fell to the ground and rolled on the ground like a ball.

The black cloth that originally wrapped his face fell aside, revealing a twisted face that was pale, bloodless, and stained with dust. A pair of eyes filled with fear gradually became dull. A residual red color spurted out from the neck of the headless body, and then fell to the ground with a thud, raising a cloud of dust. The speeding white line didn't stop for a moment, and it happened to hit a huge rock not far behind the robber. A burst of sparks flew, leaving a deep knife mark on the boulder.

It turned out to be a flying knife.

It’s a long story, but it all happened in two or three breaths. The three robbers who were originally bossy have now fulfilled their promise to die on the same day, same year, same month.

Xu Yang was shocked by the scene in front of him. If the silver light had been directed at him, he would inevitably not have the same fate.

With luck and energy, he jumped up and stood up. He moved his wrist towards the Lihuo Cone scattered on the ground and put the Lihuo Cone back into the storage bag. Then he waved towards the scattered three pieces of the three fantasy pestles. The three fantasy pestles merged into one, turned into a long stick, and was held tightly in Xu Yang's hand. The other hand held the diamond shield in front of his chest.

"Enemy or friend, you might as well come out and see him." Xu Yang said loudly in the direction of the flying knife.

Before Xu Yang finished speaking, he saw a person flashing out from behind a big tree not far from the side of the road.

This man is thin and wears a black hat. The bamboo hat is pressed very low, and its face cannot be seen clearly. But judging from his body shape and clothing, Xu Yang looked familiar.

An idea flashed in his mind, and he recalled a scene in Pingyun Gufang City not long ago. This person was the one who followed Xu Yang in Pingyun Gufang City not long ago and was used by Xu Yang to get rid of him.

I saw this person making a move with one hand, and a silver light flew up from the ground, and came to his palm the next moment.

Only then did Xu Yang see clearly that the silver light was originally a delicate silver flying knife only three inches long.

The person opposite turned over his hand and put away the throwing knife.

"Fellow Taoist, there is no need to panic."

The man said and took a few steps forward. When he got closer to Xu Yang, he stopped and took out a jade token from his arms.

Then he flashed the jade sign in front of him and whispered: "This fellow Taoist, we should be members of our own family and don't need to see anyone outside."

Xu Yang took a closer look.

The front of this jade tablet is engraved with the word "Yuan Chang". It is very similar to the "Yanchang Merchant Alliance" jade plaque that I got in Pingyun Gufang City not long ago.

"Your Excellency is from the Yuanchang Merchant Alliance. I don't know what to call him?" Xu Yang asked.

"Everyone in the Merchant Alliance calls me Yuan Xiaodao. I am one of the secret deacons responsible for the safety of the city in Yuanchang Merchant Alliance."

With that said, Yuan Xiaodao took off the bamboo hat on his head, revealing a thin face. This person looks to be about forty years old. Although his eyes are small, they are extremely bright, and the two shiny black mustaches on his mouth are very eye-catching.

"It turns out it's Senior Yuan, I'm Xu Yang, I'm disrespectful." Xu Yang said with a smile. Then he put the stainless steel shield in his hand away and put it into his storage bag, while his other hand still held the Three Magic Long Stick tightly.

Hearing the word Xu Yang, Yuan Xiaodao showed a hint of unnoticeable joy.

Seeing Xu Yang still holding the long stick in his hand, he looked wary. The person who called himself Yuan Xiaodao smiled, and then said: "Fellow Taoist, are you still a little confused about why I am here? Let me explain slowly."

Yuan Xiaodao hesitated for a moment, and then said: "These days, the Yuanchang Merchant Alliance has deployed additional personnel to maintain security in Pingyun Gufang City. Although the banditry has been greatly reduced, there are still a few bold robbers pretending to be ordinary merchants. Sneak into Fangshi, and then follow the merchants to rob. I am one of the deacons who was ordered to monitor this matter in Fangshi. It turned out that someone was secretly following you in Pingyungufang City, so I followed you all the way. Behind you. Unfortunately, you discovered my trace near the entrance of Fangshi. I was interrogated by the Merchant Alliance guard at the entrance of Fangshi and was delayed for a while. I learned from the deacon at the door that the fellow Taoist should be me, Yuan Chang. A guest from the Merchant Alliance. I was even more worried about the safety of fellow Taoist, so I hurriedly chased him all the way. I happened to see this person trying to hurt fellow Taoist in broad daylight, and I thought he was a robber in a hurry. The attack was too heavy, and this is entirely his own fault.”

"It turns out that you are also a member of the business alliance. Thank you for your help just now! Please don't worry about the misunderstanding in Pingyun Gufang City, senior."

After Xu Yang finished speaking, he put away the three phantom pestles in his hands.

At this time, a yellow shadow flashed in the weeds on the roadside, and the golden mink "Peach" jumped onto Xu Yang's shoulder.

"Pan Tao" bared its teeth towards the opposite side and made a harsh "squeaking" sound, which seemed to be hostile to Yuan Xiaodao.

"Senior Yuan, don't mind. This little mink is just a spiritual pet with low qualifications. It will feel a little uneasy when meeting strangers."

As he spoke, Xu Yang touched "Pan Tao"'s wool-like little head with one hand. "Pan Tao" then became quiet.

"Xiaoxian, this person's origin is unknown, so it's better to be careful." A'Zhu, who was hiding in Xu Yang's body, said.

"Thanks for the reminder, I will be careful."

Because Xu Yang's father left home when he was very young, as the only male in the family, Xu Yang matured earlier than his peers. Plus spending a good sixty years in the dreamland of the Nightmare Beast. Although Xu Yang still retains his childlike and optimistic nature, his mind is already very calm and sophisticated. So naturally he was very careful about the stranger in front of him who had the power to kill him with one blow.

Yuan Xiaodao opposite could not hear the conversation between A'Zhu and Xu Yang at all.

Yuan Xiaodao put on the bamboo hat again and looked at the three broken corpses on the ground. Raising his hand, several talismans spilled out and landed on the corpse.

Knead the secret with one hand, pointing towards the corpse.

The talisman on the corpse exploded with a bang. The next moment, streams of rolling liquid continued to gush out from the corpse. Following a pungent stench, the body was completely melted away, leaving only a few remnants of clothing.

Yuan Xiaodao walked to the wreckage and took a closer look. Then with a wave of his hand, he took the long whip used by the three of them into his hand and put it into the storage bag and put it away. Then he turned his right palm, and a strong wind swept across, sweeping the ground clean. Several more palms were swept out in succession, and the strong wind passed by, filling up the potholes left by the fighting on the road, and then nodded with satisfaction.

Seeing this, Xu Yang said in confusion: "Why did Senior Yuan destroy the bodies of these three people in a hurry without checking them to find out the origins of these three people or the people behind them?"

Hearing Xu Yang's question, Yuan Xiaodao's face paused, and then he said with a smile: "Three thieves are nothing to worry about. Simply dealing with them also saves the trouble of reporting to the merchant alliance. And there are people traveling on this trade road. Frequent merchants. If this matter is spread out after being seen by others, it will have a negative impact on the business of Pingyun Gufang City and the reputation of Yuanchang Merchant Alliance. Therefore, simple handling is also the tacit rule of the Merchant Alliance."

After hearing this, Xu Yang shook his head helplessly. I thought to myself, I didn't expect that the Yuanchang Merchant Alliance, as the top merchant alliance on the Zhongyuan Continent, would do such trickery.

"I'm just worrying too much."

"It doesn't matter. Brother Xu has such a stable mind at such a young age, and he can handle the attacks of these three people at the same time and kill two of them. He is a young talent."

"Senior, you must be commended. In a critical moment, you just managed to protect yourself. But the "flying knife skill" used by senior was able to kill one of them in an understatement. I really admire you."

"Brother Xu was joking. Brother Xu almost hurt him with a desperate blow just now, so he should apologize."

As he spoke, Yuan Xiaodao took out a small white jade bottle, poured a pill into it and placed it on the palm of his hand.

"I have a pill here to replenish qi and blood. Just consider it as compensation for the hasty action just now."

As he said that, he spread his palm in front of him, waiting for Xu Yang to pick it up on his own.

Xu Yang did not step forward to get the elixir.

"Senior Yuan, you're welcome. I just output too much mana for a moment. It won't take a moment to return to normal."

Seeing Xu Yang being so cautious. Yuan Xiaodao showed a hint of dissatisfaction: "Brother Xu looks down on me, Mr. Yuan."

After saying that, he stretched out his other hand's index finger and middle finger and gently picked up the pill in his palm, then threw it towards Xu Yang.

Xu Yang stretched out his hand and grabbed the pill in mid-air.
