Silence.
The atmosphere in the room was unprecedentedly still.
Both the Jin family members and the Xuan Yue Security personnel stared at the figure who had crashed through the window, not daring to even breathe.
Especially the Jin family members.
When they thought of how ruthless this criminal was, an unprecedented fear surged in their hearts, chilling them to the bone. It felt as though the very top of their skulls might be ripped off by the terror.
Those with weaker mental fortitude were so scared that they fainted on the spot.
"Run!"
Someone suddenly shouted.
The Jin family members were jolted awake by the cry.
In the next moment, everyone scattered in panic.
And with their chaotic flight, the slaughter began.
Compared to the previous massacre at the Jin family villa in Hengguang Flower Garden, this time, Li Chunjun's killing efficiency was much better.
Moreover, thanks to the Xuan Yue Security personnel reinforcing the defense of the Jin family mansion, some of the family members who tried to escape by jumping out of the second or third-floor windows found themselves unable to do so.
There were only two exits.
One was the main door, which had been barred shut by Li Chunjun using steel reinforcements from the outside.
The other...
Was the window that he had forcibly opened by cutting through steel rails with his sword.
"Vice Leader Shang! Hurry! Get up here!"
Jin Guanghua screamed, retreating as he called out.
Although Vice Leader Shang had already felt something was wrong because Leader Lu hadn't returned, at this point, he still gritted his teeth and ordered the Xuan Yue Security personnel to form a defensive formation to face the threat.
"Stop, Li Chunjun! How long are you going to kill? Have mercy..."
"You want to save them at the cost of your own lives?"
Li Chunjun coldly replied.
Vice Leader Shang's scalp tingled with dread, but he still said, "The criminals, the Jin family, especially Jin Guangming and his family, have already been punished. The other Jin family members are innocent..."
"Whoosh!"
The sword flashed through the air.
Vice Leader Shang hadn't even finished speaking before a sword light sliced toward him with impossible speed.
It was like a bolt of lightning, ripping through the sky and instantly closing the distance.
The speed was so fast that Vice Leader Shang couldn't even react.
Driven by his survival instincts, he immediately pulled back as fast as he could.
"So be it, I will fulfill your wish."
Blood splattered.
The two Xuan Yue members who had appeared in front of Vice Leader Shang as he retreated were pierced through the throat in an instant.
"Stop! Fulfill what!? I didn't even say anything..."
The sword light turned again!
With an icy cold flash, the sword cut through the throat of another man, taking away a spray of blood.
Then, with impossible speed, the sword pierced through the center of this man's forehead.
"Sss!"
All of Vice Leader Shang's promises to the Jin family were swept away, dissolving like clouds in the wind.
Stab, pull!
The sword never paused, immediately slashing toward another target.
"Ah! I'll fight you to deat-!"
One person, unable to bear the terror, screamed in desperation.
But before the scream could even leave his throat, the sword severed his neck, silencing his cry.
In the blink of an eye, Li Chunjun sidestepped the attack of another Integration Realm Martial Artist, moving with graceful steps, as if walking through a garden, his sword cutting through the lives of Xuan Yue members as if they were nothing more than fragile reeds.
Whether they were outer-circle personnel with Inner Strength, or ordinary staff who practiced basic techniques—
In Li Chunjun's swordplay, it made no difference.
His swordsmanship, although resembling the Nine Heavens Thunder Sword Technique, was far more efficient—
And more deadly.
Every swing of the sword brought blood to the air.
Every strike resulted in life fading away.
The elite forces of Xuan Yue Security seemed like lambs to the slaughter, with no resistance left.
A massacre, similar to what happened at the Jin family estate a week ago, was repeated within this mansion.
The Jin family members who were being chased screamed in agony, begged for mercy, and even wept uncontrollably, praying that Li Chunjun would spare them.
But...
Li Chunjun didn't even blink.
The sword in his hand never faltered.
Mercy!?
When they ruthlessly oppressed ordinary people, driving them into a corner—did they care about the people's desperate pleas for mercy?
No!
Exterminate them all, no survivors!
Since they did it to others, he will do the same to them!
Three, six, twelve, twenty-four...
Li Chunjun continued to swing his sword relentlessly, without hesitation.
Anyone—
Anyone from the Jin family—no hesitation, no pause.
Was the sword getting dull?
Replace it—but keep going!
He killed his way from the bottom floor to the top floor, then back again, swinging his sword again and again!
Until...
In the entire three-story mansion, there wasn't a single living person left standing.
He stood in the center of the room, looking at the sea of corpses around him.
Crimson blood splattered everywhere, staining the walls in every corner—so horrifying, it was almost impossible to look at.
And Li Chunjun...
He was breathing heavily.
Tired from the killing?
No!
This kind of heavy breathing wasn't from physical exhaustion, but rather a psychological aftereffect, a burning emotion that was deeply rooted in his soul.
Despite appearing emotionless and numb on the outside, no one could know what was truly happening deep within his heart.
...
Li Chunjun breathed heavily for ten seconds.
Then...
His breathing finally calmed down.
It was over.
The Jin family in the mansion had been completely wiped out.
He lowered his head and looked at his hands.
The crimson blood covered his palms, thick and foul-smelling.
But as the sword still rested in his hand, it was steady, with no sign of trembling.
"It's steady."
Li Chunjun muttered quietly.
He clearly remembered.
The first time he held a sword, when he had to survive, to stand, and to kill, as he stabbed it into her body...
His hand had shaken violently.
He had been trembling, feeling a deep sense of horror.
But now, after killing so many people,
Hundreds from the Pinjian Martial Hall, the Jin family estate, and now, this mansion,
He had killed more than two hundred people...
Yet his hand still didn't tremble.
Moreover, with every swing of the sword, with every kill, his efficiency increased.
"Life... is the most brilliant miracle in the world, full of surprises and the unbelievable. But it is also so fragile, like a butterfly crushed by a foot after being drenched in the rain..."
Li Chunjun gently rested the sword's edge on his neck, feeling the coolness of the metal against his skin.
"One cut along the neck, no need to sever the vertebrae, just cut the carotid artery, and the blood will spurt out, carrying away the body's warmth, draining all of its strength..."
He stood there, frozen in place.
The sword's edge cut into his skin—it hurt a little.
After a long moment, he suddenly dropped the dull sword on the ground.
"Clang!"
The sharp sound of the sword hitting the floor echoed through the room.
"There's one more, one more Jin Zhiya!"
Li Chunjun searched for another sword.
He needed a new, sharp sword.
"I will complete my revenge!"
After a short while, he picked up another sword.
The sword provided by Xuan Yue Security might be of slightly lesser quality compared to the treasure sword from the Pinjian Martial Hall's collection, but it was good enough.
It was better than the million-dollar sword provided by Sanxing Property.
He began to finish off the rest.
One by one, anyone who still had a breath left, he struck their head to finish them off.
"Whoever stands in front of me, I will walk over their corpse! I will complete this revenge with no survivors left!"
After completing this, he cleaned the blood off his body, changed into clean clothes, and took some compensation for the destroyed treasure swords.
He threw various fine wines collected in a room at key points in the mansion.
Then, without hesitation, he set fire to the bloodstained clothes and threw them into a prepared fire starter.
"And then..."
In an instant, ferocious flames spread throughout the house, quickly engulfing the entire structure.
He turned, walking away from the raging fire behind him, heading into the night.
"Next, let's become immortal."
