Chapter 4922: Waiting for the Bait to Bite

Xiao Xuan hid in the shadows, observing everything clearly…

After the people from the Jinglong Sect arrived, they began to interrogate the members of the Xie Family about the cause.

The people of the Xie Family didn't dare to withhold anything, explaining the events clearly and shifting all the responsibility onto Xiao Xuan.

Of course.

The Xie Family was merely telling the truth.

With the testimony of the people from White Mist City, it was confirmed that the matter had nothing to do with the Xie Family; rather, the Jinglong Sect had utilized the Xie Family.

To preserve the Jinglong Sect's reputation, they did not take action against the Xie Family…

Subsequently, under the orders of the Jinglong Sect's Tongtian Realm Elder, the Jinglong Sect Disciples split up and began searching for Xiao Tiezhu's tracks.

These people left the Xie Family and then went their separate ways; Xiao Xuan secretly watched the directions they took with perfect clarity.

Once they were gone, only the Tongtian Realm Elder remained at the Xie Family.

A ruthless look appeared on Xiao Xuan's face; as long as he dealt with the Tongtian Realm Elder, he wouldn't fear the other Jinglong Sect Disciples.

The Jinglong Sect Elder stayed at the Xie Family to wait for news; once the other Disciples discovered Xiao Xuan, they weren't to engage in a prolonged battle but were to contact him immediately, and he would fly over at once…

This was the Tongtian Realm Elder's plan.

While the Tongtian Realm Elder was at the Xie Family, the Xie Family members were exceptionally polite and didn't dare to be negligent in the slightest, treating him almost like their own ancestor.

Even so, the Jinglong Sect Elder was very dissatisfied.

He believed the deaths of his Disciples were related to the Xie Family.

He silently decided in his heart that once this matter settled down, he would find an excuse to send someone to secretly exterminate the Xie Family.

After all, the Jinglong Sect's face could not be lost, and they could not forgive the Xie Family either…

At this time, Xiao Xuan secretly entered the Xie Family.

His purpose in entering the Xie Family was simple: to kill the Jinglong Sect Elder.

As long as he killed the other party, subsequent matters would be easy to resolve…

After entering the Xie Family, Xiao Xuan moved stealthily and arrived near the room where the Jinglong Sect Elder was staying.

Xiao Xuan decided to take the other party by surprise and eliminate him…

Thus, Xiao Xuan went to the kitchen. He wasn't sure if poisoning would be effective, but if he did use poison, it would be easy for the other party to detect it in advance; in that case, he would be the one in danger.

Xiao Xuan decided to take action personally. He knocked a Xie Family Servant unconscious, changed into the Servant's clothes, and headed to the Jinglong Sect Elder's room carrying tea.

Upon entering the room and seeing a Xie Family Servant, the Jinglong Sect Elder was completely off guard…

"What are you here for?!" the Jinglong Sect Elder said in a deep voice.

"The Master sent me. He wanted you to have a taste… these are rare, high-quality teas," Xiao Xuan said weakly, acting very humble.

This humility was naturally a facade by Xiao Xuan, intended to make the other party relax his guard.

After all, wouldn't a Servant be nervous upon seeing a Jinglong Sect Elder?!

"Hmm, bring it here," the Jinglong Sect Elder nodded.

Xiao Xuan walked up to him, filled the tea, and then stood to the side timidly.

The Jinglong Sect Elder picked up the teacup, drained it in one gulp, and then frowned: "What kind of rubbish tea is this? You actually use this trash to entertain me? Your Xie Family…"

Swish!

At that moment, a flash of silver light passed by, and Xiao Xuan severed the Jinglong Sect Elder's neck with a single blade strike.

The other man's head hit the floor, and the room fell silent.

"Success…" Xiao Xuan murmured, having killed the man.

To be honest, the pressure in Xiao Xuan's heart was also very great.

This was a Jinglong Sect Elder and a Tongtian Realm powerhouse; if he had been discovered, he would surely have been the one to die.

Now that he had killed the man, the biggest trouble was gone…

Having dealt with the Jinglong Sect Elder, Xiao Xuan did not leave but instead disposed of the body.

Then, mimicking the other man's voice, he told the Xie Family members not to approach, as he was going into Secluded Cultivation… only Jinglong Sect Disciples were allowed to enter the room.

The Xie Family certainly wouldn't dare to disobey an order from a Jinglong Sect Elder…

Just like that, Xiao Xuan completed the first step of his plan.

Afterward, Xiao Xuan hid in the room, waiting for the bait to bite.

Two days later…

The Jinglong Sect Disciples returned one after another. Having no guard, they entered the room and were killed by Xiao Xuan.

If one entered, he killed one; if two entered, he killed a pair.

Quietly, Xiao Xuan soon dealt with all the Jinglong Sect Disciples.

After killing these people, a sort of Bloodline Awakening deep in Xiao Xuan's bones kicked in; he began to search their bodies, taking everything they had.

As he took the items, he felt extremely refreshed. As for why it felt so good, Xiao Xuan didn't know himself…

In short, the feeling was incredibly satisfying!

After taking the resources from these people, Xiao Xuan didn't leave immediately but went to see the Head of the Xie Family, who was also Xie Baobao's father.

Xiao Xuan confessed directly that he had killed everyone from the Jinglong Sect.

Hearing this, Xie Baobao's father almost fainted from fright…

"Uncle, calm down!" Xiao Xuan hurriedly supported him.

"You, you, you… are you trying to bring ruin upon my family?!"
