Although Diaoyu City is proactive, due to Yang Yiming's excessive taxes and his only allow wealthy and powerful families to live in this city, there are not many people in the city, so the living area in the city is only a few streets. After walking for a while, a few people came to the Xu family.

Before they got closer, Yao Ruoyu saw a group of people gathered outside the Xu family mansion and pointed at the door. When they approached, they saw four or five soldiers surrounded by more than a dozen black-clothed slaves holding sticks. At the door of the mansion, there was an arrogant young man standing, sneeringly looking down at the group of soldiers.

With his eyes narrowed slightly, Yao Ruoyu separated the crowd and walked in and asked, "Where is Luo Cheng?"

"I am, who is your Excellency?" A young soldier replied when he asked.

After releasing his spiritual consciousness and scanning Luo Cheng's whole body, he made sure that he was not seriously injured, Yao Ruoyu nodded: "I am Yao Ruoyu, here to help you."

Luo Cheng's eyes lit up when he heard this, and a little respect suddenly appeared in his eyes. He said happily: "Are you Lord Yao? The one who injured Wanyan Ye and resolved the trap of the siege?"

"Well, it's me." Unexpectedly, Luo Cheng would show such a respectful look. Yao Ruoyu scratched his head awkwardly.

This Luo Cheng is the second son of Luo He, the leader of the Luo family, and he is also a sergeant in the defenders of Diaoyu City.

Luo He's eldest son died for some reason a few years ago, so Luo Cheng is the only descendant of the Luo family. In addition to dealing with the Xu family, Yao Ruoyu also wants to ensure that Luo Cheng is not surprised and prevent Luo He from venting his anger on his side.

After appeased Luo Cheng and others, Yao Ruoyu turned to look at the young man standing at the door of the Xu family's house and said calmly: "Are you Xu Dongling? The eldest master of the Xu family?"

"Who are you?" The young man frowned and said coldly.

Seeing his arrogant expression, Yao Ruoyu smiled disdainfully, turned his head to look at the residents around him, and then said calmly: "Wildfire thieves are eyeing this city. In order to protect this city, we recruited young and strong guards to form a guard to resist the bandits. The Luo family can be, the Bai family can, and even ordinary people can be, why can't they come to your Xu family?"

Before Xu Dongling answered, Yao Ruoyu's eyes sharpened and he said sternly: "If you don't want it, you don't want it, but why do you want to injure the soldiers guarding the city? Do you know that they are all forces to resist wildfire thieves later! Your Xu family attacked the soldiers guarding the city, but they colluded with the wildfire thieves, wanting to cooperate inside and outside, destroy the plan to defend the city, and let the bandits enter the city?"

"Nonsense!" Unexpectedly, Yao Ruoyu gave the Xu family a charge of colluding with the bandits in just a few words. Xu Dongling's face changed drastically. He was about to scold him when he heard Yao Ruoyu continue to shout: "When the wildfire thieves attacked the city before, you did not see your Xu family defending the city. At this moment, to form a guard to resist the bandits, your Xu family shirked the blame several times! It was simply a wolfish ambition and did not know good or evil!"

The news of the Xu family in Hezhou City was not good, and the fact that they had never tried to resist the bandits before spread throughout the city under the arrangement of Xu Xuanrong, so the people had long been extremely disgusted with the Xu family. At this moment, when Yao Ruoyu told the purpose of forming a guard, he immediately felt more disgusted with the Xu family. Many people even glared at Xu Dongling, spitting, and wishing they could rush to defeat him.

Xu Dongling was originally the eldest son of the family, and he had no ability. After Yao Ruoyu was charged with collusion with bandits, he was panicked. At this moment, when he saw the excitement of the crowd around him, he was even more panicked. He had forgotten to defend himself. He could only tremble there and couldn't even say a word.

Xu Dongling didn't expect that Yao Ruoyu had been in the student union since his freshman year. Not to mention anything else, he hasn't learned anything else in the past four years, and has learned a lot of official words like hats. In terms of kung quarrel skills, he is really worthy of anyone in this world.

"Okay! What a collusion with a bandit! What a wolf's ambition, he doesn't know good or evil! I didn't expect that you, a junior, not only has amazing sword skills, but also has such sharp eloquence! Just about your unparalleled sophistry, don't even want to erase the achievements of my Xu family guarding Diaoyu City for many years!"

Just when the Xu family's mansion was excited and the people were all angry with Yao Ruoyu's words, a cold shout full of anger suddenly came from the Xu family's mansion. Then, a square mirror with colorful gems flowing out of the house was flying out of the house, hanging in front of the house. The mirror faced Yao Ruoyu, with a faint fluctuation of spiritual energy. It was because the mirror was pregnant with spiritual methods and was ready to attack Yao Ruoyu at any time.

After glanced at the square mirror, Yao Ruoyu was stunned. The frame of the square mirror was made of various colors of jewelry. Although it made the entire square mirror full of rich treasure energy, it was filled with a strong aura of a rage, which made people couldn't help frowning inwardly at first sight.

But then he reacted and sneered: "Why, your Xu family is guilty of being a thief. Can you kill someone to silence him?"

"Hmph! My Xu family has always been doing this, what does it have to do with guilt?" With a sneer, a man in a gorgeous robe strode out of the house and looked at Yao Ruoyu coldly, "Besides, you are too careless, right? Is my Xu family working hard to defend the city? Is it your turn, a person who doesn't know the origin, to question it?"

With a sneer, Yao Ruoyu slowly pressed the hilt of the Shuangxi sword on his waist: "The world is so big, it's only a word of truth. Even if I only pass by here, I know how to protect the people and resist the bandits. Your Xu family lives here, but he ignores the lives of the people and only knows how to collude with bandits and intends to make chaos. If you do such evil deeds, don't you allow us to speak up for justice?"

"Speak up for justice? I'm afraid it's a bad intention!" Sneered, the man narrowed his eyes and stared at Yao Ruoyu, and said in a deep voice, "Don't think Xu can't see your intentions? The city lord died, I'm afraid you will also like the city lord? But you are too ignorant of the sky and earth. You are just three realms, and you dare to covet such a position? Aren't you afraid of climbing to the top and falling to the extreme and dying?"

Shaking his head slightly, Yao Ruoyu said calmly: "In the eyes of the thieves, everyone has bad intentions, but they don't know that the world has righteousness. Do heroes need to kill evil?"

"Well said!" Before he could say this, Luo Cheng's eyes lit up and he shouted, "What a saying, 'The heaven and earth have righteousness, and heroes need to kill evil people'. Such a family like the Xu family, who are full of evil thoughts, must be punished!"

Seeing Luo Cheng and Yao Ruoyu sang together, the man's face darkened and said coldly: "You must be punished? What a big tone! My Xu family has been here for more than a hundred years, how could you kill them at will?"

"Then try!" After talking nonsense for a long time, Yao Ruoyu finally grabbed the reason for taking action. Without waiting for the other party to answer, he drew his sword and came out. Within his mind, the spiritual power in his body rose up, turned into a blue sword light and stabbed out, and took the man in front of him.

Unexpectedly, Yao Ruoyu actually took action when he said he could do it. The man was furious and quickly controlled the square mirror above his head to protect him. He saw him crooked his fingers and formed a seal. The mirror in front of him rotated, absorbing the surrounding spiritual energy into countless treasures and swept out.

As soon as his spiritual consciousness came into contact with countless treasure qi, Yao Ruoyu felt a sense of luxury. Obviously, the colorful treasure qi was just a concealment. The essence of this attack was the luxury that made people fall into an illusion.

With his eyes narrowed slightly, Yao Ruoyu's wrist turned, and the sword edge of the Frost Xi Sword turned, and the blue sword light that had previously pierced suddenly exploded and turned into drops of ice chips like rain and burst out everywhere, directly colliding with the countless treasure qi, splashing out of thin air.

Just as the man's attack was resolved, Yao Ruoyu's thoughts moved, and a spiritual seal suddenly appeared in front of his chest. Then countless ice tides surged out from the void around him, rolling out like a crazi wave. Judging from his momentum, he wanted to swallow the Xu family's mansion to freeze.

"Arrogant!" Seeing Yao Ruoyu actually attacking his ancestral home, the man was furious and clicked a square mirror. The treasure mirror immediately rushed up, released endless treasure aura and fell down. He set up a barrier outside the Xu family's mansion, blocking the ice tide summoned by Yao Ruoyu outside.

Yao Ruoyu naturally didn't expect this ice tide to solve the man. The next moment he summoned the ice tide to roll it out, he had already raised his sword and pointed it at the man with a sword.

With a squeak, the blue sword light slashed out by the sword edge instantly slashed on the barrier falling from the square mirror. However, although this attack caused the entire barrier to shake violently, it failed to shatter it.

"Hmph!" Seeing Yao Ruoyu's sword ineffective, the man sneered and bounced his fingers, forming a spiritual seal and punching it into the mirror. Then he saw that the treasure energy in the square mirror surged and turned into several sharp energy shot directly at Yao Ruoyu.

(No! The other party is in the fourth realm, after all, I am only in the third realm. If I don’t use it, it will be difficult to take it down... Since that’s the case, why not try again...)

As his thoughts turned sharply, Yao Ruoyu's mind suddenly moved, and he actually recalled the scene when he fought with Wanyan Ye that day. However, after a few breaths, the nameless aura that day surged again, making him immersed in the state of mind that day in an instant, feeling the helplessness, anger, violentness and other emotions of that day.

"It's not as good as that day...but it's enough!"

But in just a breath, Yao Ruoyu suddenly felt a sharp aura rushing from his heart. Suddenly, his eyes suddenly opened, the Frost Sky Sword in his hand rose, and another blue sword light rushed up.

But this time, the surface of this sword light was surrounded by an indescribable aura of destruction. With one blow, several sharp auras from the man were shattered. Then the sword light hit the barrier directly, hitting the man's forehead and killing him.

"Father!" Seeing the man killed, Xu Dongling's face changed drastically. He rushed forward in horror and wanted to support the man. However, this person had been penetrated by Yao Ruoyu's sword and died in an instant. Even if he was supported by him, he had lost his breath of life.

"Yao Ruoyu!"

The moment the man died, a roar suddenly came from the Xu family's mansion, and then he saw a vast spiritual energy like a volcanic explosion soaring into the sky from the mansion. A pagoda could be faintly seen from the spiritual energy. The pagoda rushed to a high place with surging spiritual energy, and then swooped down and suppressed Yao Ruoyu.

"Xu Qiu?" His eyebrows raised slightly, but Yao Ruoyu was not surprised at all. The Shuangxi Sword was swung up. The moment the sword light burst out, a sword force with endless aura of destruction also rushed up, surrounding the sword light and hitting the pagoda.

With a bang, the sword light exploded into pieces in the air, but the surging spiritual energy brought by the pagoda was also shattered, and the entire pagoda flew backwards and shook in the air for a while before being stabilized again by the man named Xu Qiu.

He frowned slightly, and Yao Ruoyu sighed in his heart. When he faced Wanyan Ye that day, the last sword was a desperate bet, stimulating all the anger that had passed through time. Only then did he cross the several levels and forcibly realize the meaning of swordsmanship.

But today, I don’t have the same state of mind as I did today. Even if Yao Ruoyu forced his understanding, he could only condense the power of the sword, and his power was greatly reduced. Otherwise, if the sword intent was opposed, the sword just now would be enough to smash the pagoda.
