Changchuan He is the number one master of the Thorn Empire. At the age of eighteen, he joined the Seven Holy Swordsmen squad and became the leader of the Holy Swordsmen at the age of twenty-two, receiving an honorary rank at the age of twenty-three. At the age of twenty-seven, under the coronation of the Thorn Pope, he became the youngest honorary Sword Saint in history and one of the eight great swordsmen on the Ancient Yue Continent.

When Lun Hui was hanging out with Longyou at Dozhe University, he once asked Longyou about his strength.

"In a face-to-face battle, if I go all out, he can take my head within ten moves."

Lun Hui deeply valued the evaluation in this statement.

The Changchuan family has produced holy swordsmen for generations. Although they do not have a large population and neither high rank nor wealth, the ancestral small courtyard of the Changchuan family is hidden in the most inconspicuous corner of Ukampa. However, the Changchuan family is indeed one of the most respected ancient clans, with a superior status. The people of the Changchuan family are also cautious and never allow others to provoke them.

As the younger brother of the 33-year-old senior swordsman, Changchuan Gu lived up to expectations and achieved the rank of master at a young age. He was a true young talent.

But when it comes to titles, in the Thorn Empire, the most prominent titles are not the emperor, the pope, not Hedda Nolan, the leader of the Twelve-Person Council, not the magic martial arts masters Changchuan He and Dalton, but the husband of the captain of the Royal Knights, Rhythm Nolan!

This legendary story of not loving the country but loving a beauty comes from the former first powerful nation, the Imperial Mausoleum. King Philip VIII gave up his throne to pursue the number one beauty in the world and left with the words "Even if there is a vast world, I only want to dance with you". This story has been sung by countless wandering poets to this day.

Speaking of which, beautiful women who are easy to obtain and have both money and power are countless, but it is difficult to find a match for the stunning beauty like Rhythm Nolan, who is young in age but ranks among the top experts in the world, even if we look back several hundred years in human history.

Even the foreign royal nobles who admire her beauty are numerous, but the people of the Thorn Empire are unwilling to let this globally famous flower of the empire marry abroad.

Therefore, the title "husband of Rhythm Nolan" which sounds awkward has undoubtedly become the most captivating title in the Thorn Empire.

So, when Smile Nolan mentioned that this man was the one who married her sister, Changchuan He's heart was definitely shaken as if a level nine earthquake had occurred.

"Smile, it's getting late. You can stay if you want. I'm leaving." Lun Hui was impatient. He knew about Smile's little grudge against him, although he didn't understand why this girl had such a problem with him. But if it caused any friction with Changchuan He, it was something he didn't want to encounter.

After speaking, Lun Hui turned around, shrugged at the man and woman in front of him, and was about to leave.

"I am actually interested in the man who can secretly take away the flower of my empire. Mr. Lun, don't you think we have met somewhere before?" But just because Lun Hui didn't want to cause trouble didn't mean he was afraid of it.

"Just a few years ago, Changchuan Brother once gave me some advice. I thought there must be many people who have received advice from Changchuan Brother, but I didn't expect to be remembered by Changchuan Brother. It is truly an honor." Lun Hui definitely remembered Changchuan He. Many years ago, when he was still a kid, he had a face-to-face encounter with Changchuan He at the Nolan Family. Changchuan He was a cunning little devil who almost played a trick on him and made him the scapegoat.

"What did I say back then?" Changchuan He looked down at Lun Hui coldly from the steps, his gaze different from the condescending look of a spoiled young master. It was a look at a weak person, which made Lun Hui can't help but find it funny.

"You told me to stay away from Nolan Family women and said that I couldn't get close to them, right?" Lun Hui smirked.

Smile Nolan's face changed slightly when she heard this.

Perhaps she did have a dislike for Lun Hui, but only she knew her true thoughts.

"Now that you know, are you brave enough to come back to Ukampa?" Changchuan Gu, not disappointing as a master, secretly used his aura pressure while speaking to Lun Hui. And his control of this pressure was extremely precise, only Lun Hui could feel it, while Smile Nolan beside him didn't notice it at all.Lun Hui scratched his head in frustration and said helplessly, "I'm also very reluctant, you know. I have my self-esteem as a man, but now I have to play the role of a toy boy. But what's done is done, and I have to do what I have to do. You understand, right? It's about spending time with Miss Rhythm every night. Staring at me won't do any good. Do you really plan to kill me? Keep in mind that my father-in-law is Hedda Nolan. You can't do anything to me."

Although Changchuangu had strong mental resilience, he was annoyed by Lun Hui's thug attitude, but he managed to control himself and said to Smile, "Smile, you go back first. Everyone is still waiting for you. The tension has eased, and I'll have the young master apologize to you later."

But Smile Nolan refused, "Big Brother Changchuangu, let's go back together."

Perhaps realizing that he had caused unnecessary trouble, Changchuangu unconsciously glanced at Lun Hui.

This glance didn't matter much, but Changchuangu's eyes suddenly turned cold, and his previously contemptuous gaze became somewhat rigid.

"Smile, be good and go back. I have something to discuss with your Big Brother Changchuangu."

"Get out of the way, no one asked for your opinion." When Smile Nolan heard this, he almost slapped Lun Hui to death with his arm. He could only give a resentful glare and walked back into the singing hall.

"Do you really think I won't dare to kill you? Even if you're the son-in-law of the Nolan Family, the news hasn't been announced yet. No one would know if I killed you. Would Hedda Nolan offend our Changchuangu family for you?" Changchuangu glared at Smile's fading figure and said casually.

"But if you kill me, wouldn't it go against your original intention? The Changchuangu family has always sought an alliance with the Nolan Family. If I die, it will at least cause a rift. I don't mind dying, but don't you still have Smile and Nora as targets? But I have to say, Changchuangu brother, Nora is out of your league. You can't control that woman. I see that Smile likes you, so you better make an effort. We can be one family in the future. I don't mind taking a loss. I'll call you brother-in-law, and you call me big brother, and we can let bygones be bygones."

In fact, this logic was quite easy to understand. The Changchuangu family was not content with their current "extraordinary" status and sought power and influence. However, they were restrained by the emperor and the Divine Sect, both preventing the Changchuangu family from getting involved in the political arena.

But if they could form an alliance with the Nolan Family, not only would they step into the top circle of power, but the Changchuangu family was also intrigued by the fact that Rhythm Nolan became a honorary knight of the Empire at such a young age. Could they also learn something from it?

However, there were countless people eyeing the Nolan family, but only a few could compete on the stage. But Changchuangu was definitely one of the influential figures.

But when Changchuangu heard Lun Hui's words, he did not explode, but frowned and said in a low voice, "I do appreciate Miss Rhythm very much. What I said to you earlier was only to express my dissatisfaction with the unfair treatment towards her. As for Miss Nora and Smile, I don't have any other intentions. Both you and your father were born lucky. Your father received the bright pearl of the Yan family, and you even obtained the flower of the empire. I just don't know if you have the fate to enjoy it."

This made Lun Hui have to look at Changchuangu with a different perspective. He thought his provocation was enough, but he did not expect Changchuangu to hold back and suppress his anger.

"My fate is in my own hands, and I don't need you to care about it, Changchuangu. If my father had good luck, he wouldn't have died so young. As for my mother, if you have the ability, you can directly visit her. But we are all ordinary people, and there is no place here to entertain the great Changchuangu." Lun Hui gave the other person a deep look, finally putting away his smile, and walked back into the singing hall.

However, he noticed that Changchuangu's pressure did not dissipate along the way.

"I heard you're a first-class thief now?" Changhuangu sneered as they passed each other."Do you look down on master thieves? Is that why you've been locking my qi?" Lun Hui stopped and continued, "I heard that in higher levels, a master can kill someone with just a single move by locking their opponent's qi. The opponent, whose qi is locked, will constantly feel panic and unease. This is the so-called martial arts hierarchy, where strength is above all. Does this sense of superiority in martial arts make you feel proud?"

Chang Chuan Gu was taken aback and realized he had been playing such a small trick. Originally, he wanted to pressurize the opponent with a higher level of strength, but without resorting to physical force. In doing so, Lun Hui suffered a minor loss, but Chang Chuan Gu couldn't say it out loud. He could only swallow the bitter fruit himself.

After all, men are creatures who care about face. Feeling the difference in strength is embarrassing enough, let alone admitting it.

"I just wanted to say that your qi is weak and easily graspable. I'm just reminding Mr. Lun not to have his qi shattered by someone at the first encounter in the future," Chang Chuan Gu sneered.

"Immersed in this insignificant sense of victory, it's no wonder that the Chang family has remained a small family for hundreds of years," Lun Hui suddenly reached out his hand and patted Chang Chuan Gu's shoulder.

But this pat made Chang Chuan Gu tremble all over! Not only did the soft and gentle qi within Lun Hui's body surge like a tidal wave, but his own qi also mysteriously twitched twice!

"What do you mean by this?!" Chang Chuan Gu's face darkened, and he immediately reached out to grab the person next to him!

This grab, filled with astonishment and anger, had such force that it would surely cause the person's skin to burst.

However, this foolproof attack turned out to be only grabbing the empty air. He turned his head to take a look and found that Lun Hui had already floated several meters away. In that split second, Chang Chuan Gu, who was naturally confident in his own skills, couldn't see how the other person quietly left his side!

Just as he was about to take another step forward to investigate, gunshots suddenly rang out in the nightclub!

Followed by several screams.

Lun Hui and Chang Chuan Gu exchanged glances. That was clearly Smile Nolan's voice!

Without hesitating, the two of them quickly turned into two shadows and rushed into the living room. They immediately discovered that chaos had already broken out in the hallway. The crowd was frightened by the sudden sound of gunshots and ran in all directions. In the already relatively crowded and sealed KTV, the chaos worsened.

As expected of a master-level expert, Chang Chuan Gu used his internal energy to forcefully create a path through the crowd, making his way toward the private room. He had a dark expression on his face and thought to himself that he had brought Smile Nolan out tonight. If anything were to happen to Smile, it would be uncontrollable.

Lun Hui's figure was even faster than Chang Chuan Gu's! Unlike Chang Chuan Gu, who used brute force to push through the crowd, Lun Hui seemed to pass through the gaps in the crowd. Although he had never been to Smile's private room, he was able to track down Smile's location based on her energy.

In the private room, several disoriented men and women were in a state of chaos, while Smile was trembling while holding a girl whose body was covered in blood.

Lun Hui took a quick glance and then turned to exchange a glance with Chang Chuan Gu. Chang Chuan Gu said, "First, calm down. Can anyone explain what happened?"

"I don't know... Someone suddenly pushed open the door and started shooting at us..."

"Forget about that for now. Let's get out quickly," Lun Hui impatiently interrupted.

"It's too chaotic outside..."

Before the words were even finished, a huge explosion sounded outside the door, and a giant, red tongue of flame shot through the hallway like a dragon, engulfing the lives in the corridor after the explosion!

"Run! Someone planted a bomb inside!" Lun Hui and Chang Chuan Gu broke out in a cold sweat. If they had dragged this group of people outside along with the crowd, they might all have turned into ashes by now.

"How do we escape? There might be other explosives outside!" Smile cried out loudly.

"Chang Xiong, use your internal energy to escort the girls out, and I'll take care of the boys," Lun Hui said to Chang Chuan Gu.

Chang Chuan Gu quickly nodded. Although his internal energy was strong, he couldn't help everyone. For now, letting the four smaller girls go first was the only option."Hurry up!" Lun Hui impatiently pulled Smile, who was still holding the injured girl, and threw her towards Changchuan Valley.

"I can't leave Xiaohua here." Smile Nolan looked at Lun Hui stubbornly.

"Don't waste my time. This is not a movie. If we don't leave now, I will stab her a few more times!" Lun Hui said sternly.

Changchuan Valley reluctantly carried the struggling Smile and forcefully carried her out of the compartment, with flames bursting outside.

There were four boys and a wounded girl. But Lun Hui did not have the power to resist. He couldn't carry the flames and explosions like Chang Hehe did.

At this moment, there was a series of explosions outside. The walls collapsed, countless debris scattered, and the rapidly running flames turned the dim compartment into a scorching oven.

"We're done for..." one of the boys said in despair.

"This is deliberate murder. Those people came to kill Smile, and we ended up as accomplices," another boy said bitterly.

However, Lun Hui remained calm, as if he was in a very safe place. His eyes were still lazy, as if he would never wake up, and he glanced at the walls lightly.

"We have to leave, stick together," Lun Hui said in a low voice.

"Leave? Where are we going?" someone asked.

"There is no path, create your own," Lun Hui said, then quickly used his fist to hit the thick wall behind them, and black energy enveloped the momentary brilliance.

It was an extremely short-lived light, almost entirely black, even making people doubt if it ever existed. However, the soundless crumbling wall was as if it had been devoured by a ferocious beast in an instant!

And the black energy actually crazily moved within the flames, as if it was enjoying the heat around the devourer, continuously devouring the reinforced concrete wall!

"What about her?" one of the boys pointed at the girl who was shot.

"Leave her, she's already dead anyway." Lun Hui didn't even lift his head and took the lead to run out of the damaged wall.

The boy didn't pay attention to Lun Hui's words and carried the girl named Xiaohua.

But Lun Hui didn't care. He had already opened a path that didn't exist for these young people, fulfilling his duty to the fullest extent, and he didn't care about any unnecessary actions leading to death.

The black energy danced in the air, the wall was eroded in a strange way like smoke, and soon Lun Hui blasted through the last wall. The group escaped in the light of the flames.

Outside the KTV, there were already spectators and firefighters, but due to the fire and the unknown explosion, they didn't rush in to rescue. However, the few people who came out knew very well that most of the people had died in the flames of the explosion while trying to survive.

As they were being pulled away by the firefighters, the boy who had carried the girl out came out of the broken wall with her!

The continuous explosions sounded behind him, and a bustling KTV building collapsed, burning hundreds of bodies in the flames.

Everyone who was saved was full of fear. Perhaps their loved ones and friends were still inside, or maybe they were just grateful to have escaped. But for Lun Hui, his attention was not only on the scene of the incident.

His keen perception told him that the culprit might still be among the crowd.

Unexpectedly, the boy who carried the girl slowly limped in front of Lun Hui and said angrily, "Why didn't you save her just now? You knew she was still alive!"

Lun Hui glanced at him with confusion. "Oh? She's still alive? I was too nervous at that time, I didn't see clearly."

"Stop lying! You knew she was alive, but you were going to leave her behind! If it wasn't for me saving her, she would have burned to death!" the boy who saved her said indignantly.

While paying attention to his surroundings, Lun Hui casually asked, "What's your name?"The surrounding audience also heard the angry voice of the boy and gathered around with great interest.

"My name is Awen, and I am grateful that you saved our lives! But you clearly had the ability to save her too! You are so strong, why didn't you bring her out safely?"

"Awen..."

Lun Hui suddenly exerted force and grabbed the boy's collar, lifting him up.

"Saving that girl just now gave you a sense of accomplishment, didn't it? So now you can criticize me from a humanitarian perspective? Yes, I could have saved her, even effortlessly, but I chose not to. Why does having the ability mean I must do what is expected of that ability? Why do you think I should do this for you just because I have the capability?" Then Lun Hui threw him down. "Go back, take a shower, and get a good night's sleep. If that girl doesn't die from excessive bleeding, she will thank you for the rest of her life."

After saying that, Lun Hui turned away from the crowd, not even looking at Smile and Changchuan River who were approaching, and walked away without looking back.

"That's right, why should we bear corresponding expectations just because we have enough ability? Isn't that ridiculous?"

As he walked away, Lun Hui muttered to himself.
