Chapter 316 The God of Killing

Jiangnan, Changle Street.

Liu Qi walked slowly in from the corner of the street, and then suddenly stopped.

She slowly raised her eyes. Less than two hundred steps ahead was the Xu family's mansion. Standing here, Liu Qi could even see the thick green lacquered door tightly closed.

The coldness in Liu Qi's eyes disappeared in an instant, and then his bloodless lips slightly opened and closed: "Sneaky, get out!"

As the words came out, a surge of air surged out from in front of Liu Qi, instantly sweeping across the entire long street.

"Hahaha..." Zhang's arrogant laughter came at the right time.

"It's only been a few months since we last met, and this is how you treat an old friend!" A figure emerged from the roof, then jumped down with his arms spread, and landed steadily on the spotless road.

After Liu Qi saw the man's face clearly, he immediately called out in a stiff tone: "Liu Er, what are you doing here?"

Liu Er had a warm smile on his face: "I heard that you were going to fight Jiang Jiyu today. As an old friend, how could I not come to support you?"

Liu Qi's face was solemn: "You still haven't answered my question."

Liu Er's smile froze, and then he shook his head helplessly: "You are still so unkind. Well, do you still remember the business that your Xu family took over from the Jinma Chamber of Commerce when you were in Qingjiang Prefecture?"

"I came to Jiangnan this time just to escort this batch of goods."

Liu Qi's expression lightened up after hearing this, and he slowly walked forward to Liu Er's side. He raised his eyes slightly, lingered on the scar on his face for a while, and then said softly: "I remember you never showed this scar to others."

Hearing this, Liu Er raised his hand and gently rubbed the scar, then smiled and said, "How can you be considered someone else? Speaking of which, should I thank you for showing mercy back then? With your martial arts skills at that time, it would have been easy for you to kill me."

Liu Qi walked past Liu Er and headed towards the gate of the mansion, saying softly, "No need to thank me. I'll just ask you and your people to stay away from me in the future."

As she spoke, Liu Qi had already walked to the steps in front of the door. She raised her eyes to glance at the closed door, then walked up the steps and came to the door.

Liu Qi stood at the door and stretched out his hand, as if to knock on it. Just as the back of his hand was about to touch the door, Liu Qi suddenly turned his wrist, then pressed his palm against the door and pushed it gently!
Hum——

With a dull humming sound, the door was slowly pushed open.

Through the gradually widening crack in the door, Liu Qi clearly saw a row of people standing neatly in the courtyard behind the door.

"Liu Qi, you're back." Tao, who was standing in the center, spoke first with a gentle and peaceful smile on her face.

Bang!
The door was completely opened, and Liu Qi stepped over the threshold without stopping and walked into the mansion. He only needed to take a few more steps forward to reach the center of the front yard where Tao and the others were.

But Liu Qi stopped and just stared at Tao in silence.

Tao's smile was still warm. Seeing that Liu Qi did not come over, she slowly looked to both sides. Standing on her left and right were Liu Qi's uncle Xu Yongyuan and father Xu Yongding.

The three of them smiled at each other, and then Tao walked forward with her skirt lifted and came to Liu Qi's side.

Liu Qi just stared at Tao's face until he suddenly heard a "puff" sound in his ears, the sound of a sharp blade piercing flesh!

Liu Qi watched as the smile on Tao's face slowly froze, and then her facial features gradually became tense, with pain appearing in her eyes.

Liu Qi lowered his eyes slightly, and suddenly saw a short knife stuck in Tao's lower abdomen, with countless bright red blood gushing out from the knife edge.

Bang! Bang!
Tao staggered back two steps, looking at Liu Qi with eyes full of disbelief. With both hands tightly grasping the handle of the dagger inserted into her abdomen, she murmured in pain: "Liu Qi...you!"

At the moment when Tao was about to fall backwards, Xu Yongyuan and Xu Yongding rushed forward, supporting Tao on the left and right. Then the two seemed to discover the knife on Tao's body, and immediately showed horror on their faces.

"Liu Qi, she is your mother!" Xu Yongyuan looked at Liu Qi with great sorrow and shouted at the top of his lungs.

As a husband, Xu Yongding held his dying wife in his arms and couldn't help but tremble. Then he turned his head sharply and glared at Liu Qi with bloodshot eyes: "You monster who murdered your own mother, you are not a human at all!"

Liu Qi just lowered his head silently and looked at his waist. Where the Jingji Sword should have been hanging, there was only an empty scabbard left.

Where is my knife?
Liu Qiyu raised his head woodenly, then his eyes were fixed on the dagger on Tao's lower abdomen.

It turns out to be there!

Liu Qi suddenly took a step forward and came closer under the vigilant gaze of Xu Yongding and Xu Yongyuan.

"Aunt, why do you want my great-aunt!" Suddenly a petite figure came towards her, and a pair of small hands tightly hugged Liu Qi's legs.

Liu Qi lowered his eyes and saw Xu Xinshan looking up at him with tears in her eyes, muttering: "Aunt, please don't kill anyone anymore!"

Liu Qi raised his eyebrows slightly, and then said softly: "Get out of the way."

"Aunt..." Xu Xinshan cried even louder.

Liu Qi felt the arms around her legs getting tighter and tighter.

Canglang!

At this moment, Liu Qi heard the sound of a sharp blade being unsheathed, and immediately turned his head to look in the direction of the sound, only to see Liu Shijiu looking at him with a gloomy expression, holding the unsheathed dagger Han Shuo in his right hand, with the tip of the blade pointing diagonally at the ground.

On the other side of Liu Qi, Zhou Mi walked up slowly with a cold face and said loudly: "Everyone be careful, it seems that the killing intent has corroded Liu Qi's consciousness. She has now completely become a slave to the killing intent. Now Liu Qi is no longer your daughter, but a ruthless killing machine."

"What!" Xu Yongyuan was shocked and angry when he heard this. He quickly stood up, protecting Xu Yongding who was holding Tao behind him, while looking at Liu Qi who was approaching with vigilance.

A trace of impatience flashed across Liu Qi's brows, and then he reached out and pushed Xu Xinshan, who was holding him, aside.

For some reason, when Liu Qi reached out to push the petite and frail Xu Xinshan, he felt that she was as unshakable as a mountain. In the end, he had to use his true energy to push Xu Xinshan aside.

"Give me back the knife." Liu Qi stepped forward, looked directly into the eyes of Xu Yongding who was close to him, and said in a grim tone.

Bang!
Xu Xinshan, who was suddenly pushed aside by Liu Qi, fell to the ground, and then a cloud of blood mist gushed out from her neck.

After seeing this scene, Xu Yongyuan's eyes were bloodshot. He rushed forward and hugged Xu Xinshan, while pressing the wound on her neck with his hand.

But it was obviously too late. Xu Xinshan gurgled twice, and with blood gushing out of her mouth, she tilted her head and fell into Xu Yongyuan's arms.

Xu Yongyuan stretched out his hand tremblingly and shook his granddaughter's cheek. As if he was sure that Xu Xinshan was dead, his eyes instantly turned blood red, and then he turned his head sharply to look at Liu Qi.

At this time, Liu Qi used one hand to tightly hold back the palm strike from his father Xu Yongding, while the other hand reached out to Tao in Xu Yongding's arms.

Only when he grasped the hilt of the knife exposed at Tao's lower abdomen did the solemn look in Liu Qi's eyes fade away.

laugh--

With a subtle sound, Liu Qi pulled out the knife, then turned around and inserted the blood-stained Jingji Knife into the scabbard at his waist.

Just as Liu Qi turned around and the blade was sheathed, three figures attacked from behind and on the sides.

It was Xu Yongyuan, Xu Yongding and Liu Nineteen!
The impatience between Liu Qi's brows reappeared, and then he waved his long sleeves, and while his right hand climbed up the hilt of the knife at his waist, he turned around suddenly!
Swah——

A purple arc of light swept across the entire front yard, leaving a mess wherever it touched. Even the small tree in the flower bed was cut in half.

Liu Qi turned around, sheathed his sword, and without even glancing at the corpses scattered on the ground behind him, he raised his eyes and looked in the direction of the gate.

I saw that the door was closed again without knowing when.

Liu Qi immediately said softly: "Since you are here, why don't you come in and talk."

As soon as Liu Qi finished speaking, the door slowly opened with a dull sound, and then Liu Er walked slowly from outside the door. He glanced at the bloody scene behind Liu Qi, then frowned and asked: "Liu Qi, what are you doing?"

"It's just killing a few people." Liu Qi looked at Liu Er with a serious look and replied, "Back then at Xiliu Villa, didn't we kill enough people?"

"But...but they are your relatives!" Liu Er said with a sad face. Liu Qi raised his head slightly: "Have you forgotten what Madam Mei said back then? We don't have any relatives!"

"Can……"

Just as Liu Qi was about to speak, Liu Qi suddenly interrupted him coldly: "Liu Er, you've talked too much today!"

Liu Er's face changed slightly: "Liu Qi, you are crazy, it seems that the killing intention has really affected you, you have gone crazy!"

Having said that, Liu Er resolutely turned around and prepared to leave.

But just when one foot had just stepped over the threshold, he suddenly heard a "hiss" sound, and then his eyes instantly widened, and then he slowly lowered his head to look at the half of the blade exposed on his chest.

thump!
Liu Er fell at the door.

Liu Qi walked forward, pulled the Jingji Knife out of the corpse, glanced at the blood stains on the blade, and then directly inserted the knife into the scabbard.

Only then did Liu Qi turn his head to look at the corpses scattered on the ground in the front yard of the mansion, and then said in a dark tone: "You still want to see how many people I kill, why not release them all, so as not to waste our time by coming one by one."

"Clap clap clap..."

There was a burst of crisp applause from outside the door.

Liu Qi looked back and saw a middle-aged man with an ordinary face and somewhat feminine features walking slowly towards him. The most eye-catching thing was the exaggerated wide-bladed long sword on the man's back.

The middle-aged man walked up the steps in front of the door, then lowered his eyes to glance at Liu Er who was lying on the threshold, then raised his head and looked past Liu Qi to the messy front yard of the mansion.

"They were all your loved ones and relatives, but you killed them without mercy." The middle-aged man shook his head and sighed, "It seems that the killing intent has completely corroded your consciousness."

Liu Qi looked at the middle-aged man intently, then asked softly, "Who are you?"

"Fang Hen." The middle-aged man replied in a deep voice, then reached behind him and took out the broad-backed giant blade. With a loud "bang", the heavy blade fell to the ground.

The middle-aged man held the knife in his hand, with a proud look on his face, but he looked at Liu Qi with pity in his eyes: "Everything is caused by me, and now I will put an end to your sins."

"Fang Hen?" Liu Qi curled his lips in disdain, "Just you?"

"From the moment I created the Mad Blade, the endless killing intent in this world has now had a master!" The middle-aged man said with a gloomy look, "Your killing intent is invincible, but you can't do anything to me!"

"Because I... am the Lord of Killing in this world!"

"Ah..." Liu Qi deliberately dragged out his tone, "So it's the legendary god who controls killing!"

The middle-aged man didn't seem to hear the teasing in Liu Qi's words, and his eyes were full of pride: "You can also call me that."

"Now, it's your turn to go!" The middle-aged man's tone suddenly became stern, and then his right hand holding the knife shook slightly.

"Ok?"

The middle-aged man suddenly hummed lightly, then turned his head to look at the broad-backed long knife in his hand, with a look of doubt in his eyes.

Just as the middle-aged man looked at a loss, Liu Qi suddenly whispered, "What happened to the legendary god who controls killing?"

"Are you looking for... this?"

As Liu Qi slowly uttered the last two words, a strong wind suddenly blew up around him, and then a bone-chilling chill rushed in from all directions...

"This... this... how is this possible!" The middle-aged man's body trembled slightly in the strong wind. He could already feel the endless murderous intent gathering around him.

But it was not concentrated in his sword, but in the woman in front of him.

A pale color appeared in Liu Qi's eyes, and then he said in a cold tone: "You can't even muster a trace of murderous intent, and you dare to call yourself the Lord of Killing. I think you should stop calling yourself Fang Hen and change your name to Jumping Clown!"

"This is impossible!" the middle-aged man suddenly shouted, his eyes instantly filled with madness.

"Nothing is impossible in this world." Liu Qi opened his lips slightly, "Speaking of which, Liu Qi should thank you for teaching me the Crazy Blade, the Blade Sharpener Old Man!"

When Liu Qi called out the four words "old man sharpening the knife", the middle-aged man in front of him trembled, and then a strong wind blew in his face and swept him in in an instant.

When the strong wind died down, the originally feminine middle-aged man had disappeared, and was replaced by an old man who looked like a skeleton.

Old man sharpening the knife!

Although the person in front of him had changed drastically in appearance, even if he turned into ashes, Liu Qi could still smell the odor on his body.

"Long time no see, old knife sharpener." Liu Qi said softly.

The old man sharpening the knife lowered his eyes woodenly and looked at his dry arm. It was not until he saw the killing knife in his hand that he came to his senses with a trembling pupil.

He suddenly raised his head, staring at Liu Qi with his cloudy eyes, and said in a hoarse voice: "I underestimated you. I didn't expect that your attainments in killing intent have reached such a level."

"But……"

"Hehehehe..."

The old man sharpening the knife shrank his body and let out an eerie laugh.

"You were able to see through me because I was careless for a moment."

"But everything else in this murderous state is fake, Liu Qi... look back, those people lying on the ground are all living people, they all died under your knife, these are all real!"

"Really?" Liu Qi said without any emotion, "Old man, why don't you take another look? Is this the Xu residence on Changle Street, or... the second floor of the warehouse on Jiang'an?"

When the knife-sharpening old man heard the word "warehouse", his pupils shrank almost to the extreme. Then he turned his head sharply and looked around, only to see the light around him fade away rapidly.

Until everything became dark and silent.

The old man who was sharpening the knife was about to step forward when he suddenly seemed to bump into something. He looked down and saw that it was an armchair with Liu Er lying unconscious on it.

Liu Qi was standing at the window where they had just watched the decisive battle on the river, looking at the old man sharpening the knife with a calm look.

Just as the old man was at a loss as to what to do while sharpening the knife, Liu Qi suddenly shifted his gaze and fell on the broad-backed long knife in his hand.

"The killing knife."

Following Liu Qi's gentle call, she quickly raised her hand and slightly bent her five fingers. A strong wind instantly swept out from her palm, and the next second, the broad-backed long sword fell into Liu Qi's hand.

The old man sharpening the knife turned his head woodenly to look at his empty right hand, then turned back to look at Liu Qi.

Liu Qi glanced at the broad-backed long sword calmly and said softly, "After so many years, it's time for the killing sword to see the light of day again."

Then Liu Qi's eyes suddenly focused, and with a loud "bang", the rough and thick blade broke apart.

Suddenly, debris flew everywhere in the room.

The old man sharpening the knife raised his arm to block in front of him. After he calmed down again, he slowly lowered his arm and looked at Liu Qi with his eyes trembling suddenly!
Liu Qi suddenly had a knife in his hand that was more than three feet long. The blade and handle were integrated, and the surface was withered and yellow.

It can be seen that it was carved from a whole piece of wood, and the carving technique was quite rough. You can even barely tell that it is a knife by the handle at the end.

Liu Qi's eyes slowly moved downwards and he saw two crooked characters carved in awkward strokes on the handle of the knife.

"Fang, Heng."

It turns out that this is the killing knife!
