Kyoto Castle, Linglang Pavilion.

This is the place where the minister of the court and the central government used to collect various valuable items.

"Master Ma...... I've already brought the Heavenly Spirit Diagram here, please let my inner man go......"

A man dressed in tatters knelt on the ground, his teeth clenched, as if he was enduring something.

But the words in his mouth are very submissive.

Ma Cang walked quickly to the man kneeling on the ground, and then snatched a painting from the other party's hand and quickly opened it.

Looking at the exquisite painting above, the corners of his mouth kept rising.

"Heavenly Spirit Diagram, it's really Heavenly Spirit Diagram!"

He didn't know how to appreciate paintings, but he knew that it was just such a painting, but it was the work of a famous painter in the Tianyuan Dynasty.

I don't know what the reason it fell into the hands of this man, but you can imagine how valuable it is.

The man who looked at Ma Cang and was so engrossed in looking at the painting that he didn't pay attention to himself at all spoke again.

"Master Ma, my inner ......"

Before he could finish his sentence, he saw Ma Cang's disgusted expression.

Then, Ma Cang waved his hand impatiently.

"Alright, hurry up and take him to pick up that dead woman!"

The man who heard this didn't realize what the dead woman meant, and just kept kowtowing his head.

"Thank you, Master Ma, you are all the best."

After saying that, he got up and followed a man dressed as a guy towards another room.

"Your wife is inside."

The man stopped at the door, as if he didn't want to go in, so he said to the man, and left without looking back.

The man didn't think much of it, and he opened the door with a happy face.

But the moment he opened the door, when he saw the scene in the room, the whole person stood in place as if he had been hit by five thunderbolts.

In the room, a disheveled woman hanged herself from a beam, her face haggard.

The man's eyes trembled, and he slowly walked under the woman, and then gently lowered her.

"Yang Yao, Yang Yao."

Feeling the cold temperature coming from his hand, although he knew that the other party was dead, he still refused to accept the reality.

Eventually, he slowly walked out of the room holding his woman.

When he saw that Ma Cang had hung his painting in a very conspicuous position, he was already dead.

"Master Ma."

"What for?"

Master Ma frowned, looking at this man like an ant that could be crushed at any moment.

"We said okay, as long as I give you this heavenly spirit map, you will release my inner man."

"That's right, isn't that a release? She hanged herself, what does it have to do with me? ”

After Ma Cang finished speaking, he looked at him fiercely.

"Get out of here, don't sweep Lord Ben's Yaxing!"

But in the next second, a trace of ruthlessness flashed in the man's pupils, and he actually pounced towards Ma Cang.

His fingers were like eagle talons, and they slashed at the barn's neck.

Seeing Ma Cang's fragile neck getting closer and closer, an excited smile appeared on the man's face again.

But in the next second, a powerful aura came to his face, and then he completely lost consciousness.

Ma Cang frowned as he looked at the meat parts scattered on the ground.

"Ling Xi, didn't I tell you everything? You still have to pay attention when you shoot, you see you make me so dirty here, it's very troublesome to clean up! ”

The person who made the move was none other than Lord Ling, Ling Xi, who had witnessed Si Kong's death.

"Master Ma, the Xia family actually has a master in charge, and they have killed all the people of Sikong Ran and their group!"

Hearing this, Ma Cang froze instantly.

He blinked in disbelief, then an angry expression.

"What do you say! I gave you so much time to investigate the Xia family, but you didn't find out about the fact that the Xia family still has a master! ”

Looking at Ma Cang's angry appearance, Ling Xi's eyes flashed with imperceptible disdain, and then said.

"It seems that this master was not in the Xia family before, but he appeared suddenly......"

"What suddenly appears and doesn't appear, I spent so much money to support you, just so that you can do things for me!

Hurry up and send someone to kill all the Xia family members for me! I can't wait! ”

Looking at Ma Cang, who was showing off his might in front of him, Ling Xi's eyes became a little cold.

That is, now this horse cang can be so arrogant in front of him, and he wants to let go of the previous Tianyuan Dynasty.

With his status as a grandmaster, this so-called official is not even worthy of lifting shoes for him!

But now that the world has become like this, he can only nod.

"Okay, I'll do it."

Although he promised it, he had already thought about it.

He had to prepare the money he had saved during this time, and then leave directly and walked far away, which was the main reason why he came to work as a dog in the horse barn.

As for going to kill the Xia family, isn't that a joke?

Can it be an ordinary grandmaster who can easily kill Si Ran?

It's not the legendary powerful sword immortal Xia Luo.

Just give him so much silver, and you still want him to die?

Just as he was about to leave, he bumped into three warriors head-on.

Seeing these three people, Ling Xi had a bad premonition, and his brows furrowed slightly.

"Didn't I let a few of you keep an eye on the Xia family in the dark and follow them if something happens? How did you get back? ”

The three warriors quietly glanced at the horse warehouse not far away, and said in a low voice.

"The people of the Xia family have all run away, and they are no longer in Kyoto City now......"

"What about the others?"

In addition to these three who were secretly watching, there were more than a dozen people who were intimidated on the bright side, that is, the more than ten martial artists who were casually taken by Xia Luo.

"Others...... The others were killed by a strange man wearing a mask, and that mask seemed to be the one Xia Luo wore back then......"

What they said was fragmented, but there was only one information revealed to Ling Xi, that is, the master behind the Xia family, it may really be Xia Luo!

Tianyuan Dynasty, who doesn't know Xia Luo?

However, outsiders have only heard some true and false legends about Xia Luo.

These Kyoto grandmasters can be regarded as veteran warriors in Kyoto.

When you were young, who didn't regard Xia Luo as an idol and a target to follow?

Now such a figure is still alive and in a hostile relationship with him......

It's scary to think about!

Ling Xi swallowed his saliva and peeked at the horse warehouse behind him, and after making sure that the other party hadn't heard their conversation, he lowered his voice and said to a few people.

"How much do you pay a year?"

"Lord Ling, can you still not know this? One Chinese New Year's Eve taels of silver, fourteen quintals of coarse rice, and seven horses of fine cloth......"

This treatment can be said to be very good, especially in today's world.

But this is only for ordinary people, they are all martial artists!

They are all first-class masters!

Ten years or even years ago, you wanted to hire them for this little thing?

What about dreaming?

And Ling Xi took a fancy to this, lowered his voice, and said.

"We were originally high warriors, but now we have to be so subservient to others, and we have to suffer such treatment.

Look at the treasures here, take out any one of them and give it to the four of us brothers to live happily for a lifetime, and these treasures are all from us for him.

As a result, this gave us this little money to send us away, are you willing? ”

"We ......" The three warriors hesitated, wanting to say something, but they didn't dare to say it.

"Let me tell you clearly, this bastard Ma Cang is crazy, he actually wants us to fight with that master in order to get the Xia family's property!

You said that if that master is really Xia Luo, wouldn't I send you to death? ”

Hearing this, the three warriors all nodded again and again.

They all saw Xia Lu make a move in the dark.

It felt like a gust of wind blowing a group of people to death, and the process was that I didn't see it at all, and the people disappeared inexplicably.

If it is really as Ling Xi said, let them go to the line with that existence, isn't this looking for death?

"Lord Ling, what should I do now?"

"Yes, Lord Ling, you treat us like a big brother, and we all listen to you."

Seeing that the attitude of the three of them had already been expressed, Lord Ling nodded secretly.

His eyes narrowed, and he squinted at the ugly smiling face of the barn behind him.

"This guy is not a human being and is not decent, let's help him be decent!"
