The road to Jianghu started from the martial arts hall

Chapter 72 Not a Kind Kind
Fang Xun saw a girl who was less than 10 years old, wearing a light yellow silk dress, slowly walking out of the attic, followed by two beautiful maids.

The girl wore no makeup, her eyes were as bright as stars, her skin was whiter than snow, her eyebrows and features were picturesque, she was truly a lady from a noble family in the south of the Yangtze River.

In his mind, he unconsciously compared her with other beauties he had seen, and only Lady Ye Di could compete with her in beauty.

Both of them have their merits. Madam Ye Di is more mature and charming, while the girl is gentle and quiet.

"The two beauties of Jiangzhou, Jiaolong Feiyan, Zhao Feiyan of the Zhao family, are indeed worthy of their reputation, but I didn't expect their strength to be so hidden. Du Feng is estimated to be beaten by them."

Compared to her beauty, Fang Xun paid more attention to Zhao Feiyan's strength. The sword technique she used just now was exactly the "Thirty-three Styles of Mingyue Xijian" that Du Feng had used in front of him.

If Du Feng saw this, he would definitely be ashamed.

Fang Xun didn't look at it for long. He just exchanged glances with Zhao Feiyan, then turned his gaze and walked towards the four corpses hanging on the rockery.

The shouting and screaming in the courtyard became smaller and smaller. Without the five innate masters to hold them in place, the remaining acquired masters in black all fled frantically.

A dozen Six Gates detectives and the remaining Zhao family's best men, led by Zhang Feng, started chopping the melons and vegetables.

But after seeing Zhao Feiyan walking out of the attic with two maids, Zhang Feng and his constables became dazed and their pursuit slowed down.

Ignoring what others were saying, Fang Xun slowly walked to the rockery, looked at the four corpses strung together by the Soul-Hunting Sword, and drew out his sword.

With a bang, four bodies fell into a pool of blood. Fang Xun shook the sword casually, wiped off the blood from the sword, and put it back into the sheath.

At this time, a clear voice like a yellow oriole singing in a valley came from behind.

"Thanks to Lord Fang for saving my Zhao family from the dire situation. I am deeply grateful."

Fang Xun turned around and saw Zhao Feiyan and her two maids walking towards him. There was an indescribable sadness on their beautiful faces, and they looked like they were about to cry, which made people feel pity for them.

Fang Xun simply nodded and said, "No, no, it's just a small favor, not worth mentioning."

Then he looked at the bodies of the Zhao family members in the courtyard, and sighed again, "Please accept my condolences."

After hearing Fang Xun's "My condolences," Zhao Feiyan's face became even sadder.

At this time, a third voice interrupted. Fang Xun looked and saw that it was Zhang Feng who was also walking towards this side.

"The Zhao family has always been kind to others. They often repair bridges and roads, open shops and provide porridge. Their good reputation spreads far and wide. Logically, they should not have such enemies. Miss Zhao, do you have any clues about these people in black?"

The voice came from far away and gradually got closer. When the voice was finished, Zhang Feng also stood next to Fang Xun, and both of them looked at Zhao Feiyan with inquiring eyes.

The latter sighed, his face showing indescribable sadness.

"I don't know why I have suffered such a misfortune, Daddy, Second Uncle, Cousin, etc."

As she spoke, Zhao Feiyan could no longer hold back her sorrow and began to cry.

"Miss Zhao"

Zhang Feng's heart tightened unconsciously as he watched the beauty crying. He couldn't help but want to say something, but was immediately pulled away by Fang Xun, interrupting his words.

"We both deeply regret what happened tonight, but the dead cannot be resurrected. As the pillar of the Zhao family, I hope Miss Zhao will cheer up. Captain Zhang and I will go check on your father's body first. We should be able to find some clues."

Zhang Feng came to his senses when Fang Xun quickly pulled him away from the rockery. Suddenly, he heard a reminder in a voice that only he could hear.

"Zhao Feiyan is not a good person. The Zhao family has a lot of problems."

Zhang Feng was stunned, and saw that Fang Xun did not move. It was ventriloquism. He immediately reacted and his lips also moved slightly to transmit the secret message.

"you mean?"

"Based on the sword she used just now, Du Feng, who ranked 93rd on the Dragon and Phoenix Ranking, was no match for her. But when the five black-clothed men led the crowd to slaughter her relatives, Zhao Feiyan stayed in her boudoir and watched from the sidelines."

The first time Fang Xun saw Zhao Feiyan, he knew that this person was scheming and not a good person. However, Fang Xun also tacitly did not ask why she did not take action just now. It was nothing more than some internal strife within the Zhao family.

Zhang Feng also reacted. With the strength Zhao Feiyan had shown with that sword just now, the five attacking people with innate meridians were just chickens and dogs.

You have to know that among the corpses lying on the ground now, there is not only her father Zhao Tianya, but also a group of her uncles, brothers and sisters. They are so powerful, but they just stayed quietly in their own boudoirs before.

Thinking of this, Zhang Feng felt a little sad.

"Thank you for the reminder, Brother Fang. The story behind these high walls is really fascinating.

But the Zhao family is also miserable. A family of 43 people, most of them died just a few moments ago, especially Zhao Tianya, the pillar of the family, and his brothers who were in charge of the family.

Zhao Feiyan was just a spectator. He and Fang Xun were both outsiders, so they were not so obsessed with each other's beauty that they would not become arrogant and meddle in other people's affairs.

As the two of them were talking in secret, they unknowingly came to Zhao Tianya's body, and Zhang Feng also began his job.

He had no control over the Zhao family's internal affairs, but he had to investigate the case.

The two men squatted down and carefully examined Zhao Tianya's body, and Zhang Feng gestured.

"General Zhao only had two wounds on his chest, one deep and one shallow. It was done with just two cuts. It was clean and neat. He was killed without any chance to fight back!"

As he spoke, Zhang Feng's expression became serious. Zhao Tianya was a master fighter, but he couldn't even block two slashes from the murderer!

Fang Xun also quickly deduced the circumstances surrounding Zhao Tianya's death.

"The blood was black, and it was suspected that he was poisoned. General Zhao must have been careless and was attacked by the poisoned blade. After being poisoned, he was completely unable to exert his strength. The murderer only used the second knife to kill him."

"You two gentlemen have made a good guess. As for the cause and effect of the matter, please listen to Zhao Hun's detailed explanation."

At this time, Zhao Feiyan also came to Zhao Tianya's body. Her eyes were red and swollen from crying, but she still calmed down and tried her best to appear strong.

Zhao Hun, a manager of the Zhao family who was standing next to her, bowed to Fang Xun and Zhang Feng and began to tell the story respectfully.

"After the master returned home, he went to Master Ming's room to look for him, but before he could open the door, a swordsman wearing a bronze ghost mask broke the door with a single blow and injured the master."

"You said it was a ghost-faced man?"

Fang Xun's mind sank, and he immediately remembered the ghost-faced man he met on the road before.

Zhao Hun immediately replied, "Yes, it was the Ghost-Faced Man. After killing the master, the Ghost-Faced Man left in a hurry, leaving behind only a group of men in black to finish off the team. He wanted to wipe out the entire Zhao family!"

Things turned out pretty much as Fang Xun had guessed. Zhao Tianya was first ambushed and poisoned by the ghost-faced man hiding in Zhao Tianming's room, which greatly affected his ability to perform, so that he couldn't even take the opponent's second blow.

After listening to Zhao Hun's account of the cause and effect of the incident, Fang Xun carefully examined Zhao Tianya's wound. When he found that the flesh on the other party's body was burnt, he subconsciously felt a sense of familiarity.

"The power is scorching hot, fierce and overbearing, like the Qi of a wedding dress."

But he immediately dismissed the idea in his mind.

There are countless magical skills in the world, and there are many skills that can cause fire killing effects. It is not surprising that there are similar effects to the "Wedding Dress Magic Skill".

At this moment, a Six Gates constable who looked to be in his thirties suddenly came hurriedly to Zhang Feng.

"Captain Zhang, when we were collecting the bodies of those men in black, we found that many of them were serious criminals on the Green Forest List!"

Zhang Feng's eyes narrowed when he heard this, and he immediately said, "Well? Take me to see it right now!"

After that, the group followed the lead of the constable to a pile of corpses.
