Oh no! I, the weakling, have become the villain!

Chapter 545 Unbelievable

Upon hearing his words, Liu Ming was immediately shocked, his eyes filled with disbelief.

"Are you really at the eighth level of Body Refinement?" Liu Ming couldn't help but ask.

"That's right! This is the sword technique I just mastered."

As Xu Yao spoke, he brandished his sword, which instantly transformed into a longsword radiating a cold light in his hand.

"This sword move is extremely powerful; an ordinary cultivator would definitely not be able to withstand it."

If I could escape even if I encountered a high-level cultivator, I think I could defeat them too.

Liu Ming carefully examined the longsword in Xu Yao's hand, and then nodded slightly.

He hadn't expected the young man in front of him to be so powerful.

"What's the name of your sword move?" Liu Ming asked.

"The Soul-Slaying Sword".

Xu Yao uttered three words.

Upon hearing his words, Liu Ming's eyes narrowed sharply, revealing an expression of disbelief.

He hadn't expected that the young man in front of him would use the Soul-Slaying Sword, one of his signature moves.

This sword technique was his strongest move, and he never expected that someone younger than him would master it.

This made it difficult for him to calm down, after all, his swordsmanship was unparalleled.

Even a cultivator at the second level of Qi Refining could defeat him, but he was defeated by this young man in front of him.

"Xu Yao, I never expected your strength to have reached such a level! My Soul-Slaying Sword set, although not as good as my own, is still very powerful."

"I never expected you to have mastered the Soul-Slaying Sword to this level. It seems you are truly talented in swordsmanship! I am now very much looking forward to sparring with you!" Liu Ming said.

"Then please." Xu Yao cupped his hands in greeting, a faint smile appearing on his face.

"Please." Liu Ming gestured for them to enter, and then he and Xu Yao went into the living room together.

"Waiter! Bring me a pot of good wine!" Liu Ming shouted.

"Alright! Please wait a moment, sir!" the waiter replied immediately.

"Xu Yao, it's been a long time since we last met. I didn't expect your strength to improve so quickly. It's truly astonishing."

Liu Ming spoke, a look of surprise on his face.

Liu Ming's words warmed Xu Yao's heart.

"Thanks to your care, sir," Xu Yao said, bowing slightly before adding.

"Without your help, sir, I would probably have died inside the Thunder God Sect long ago."

Xu Yao's words made Liu Ming frown.

He understood where Xu Yao was referring to as the Heavenly Thunder Sect, but he hadn't expected Xu Yao to be so vengeful.

Liu Ming didn't say anything; he knew that Xu Yao had suffered a lot over the years.

He also understood Xu Yao's feelings very well.

"Old sir, how did you know I would come to Luoyang City?" Xu Yao asked.

"This matter is actually a misunderstanding," Liu Ming said, without revealing that he was the Supreme Elder of the Heavenly Thunder Sect.

He was unwilling to reveal his hand.

Moreover, it's quite embarrassing to talk about, and he doesn't want others to know his identity.

"That's it."

Xu Yao's eyes lit up with realization. He realized there was such a misunderstanding, and his mood improved.

He looked at the waiter beside him and said, "Waiter, another two catties of wine!"

"Alright, we'll bring you the food and drinks right away!" the waiter said hurriedly.

"Xu Yao, how did you offend the Thunder God Sect?" Liu Ming asked.

"This matter is quite complicated, and I don't know the details yet, but since you are my master, I feel it's alright to tell you!"

After Xu Yao finished speaking, he told Liu Ming about his grudges with the Tianlei Sect.

Hearing his story, Liu Ming was deeply moved.

"It seems you two have an irreconcilable feud!"

Liu Ming said with some emotion.

"That's right! They bullied me by taking advantage of their power, not only destroying my hometown, but also trying to kill my wife and even my children!"

How could I possibly swallow such hatred?

Anger flashed across Xu Yao's face.

"Don't worry, since they want to kill my wife and daughters, they will pay the price!"

"I will avenge you!"

"Thank you, sir."

Xu Yao spoke, a cold light flashing in his eyes.

"By the way, sir, I came here this time to look for a weapon refiner. I wonder if you know any weapon refiners?" Xu Yao asked.

Xu Yao's words stunned Liu Ming. He hadn't expected Xu Yao to want to find a weapon refiner, since weapon refiners were extremely rare.

“I know you have a weapon refiner by your side, but I have never met this weapon refiner.”

Is he very strong?

"Sir, you've seen it before; it's the magic weapon we used when we were fighting just now." Xu Yao smiled.

"The one you're talking about is the weapon refiner next to you, right?" Liu Ming asked.

Xu Yao nodded without saying anything.

"Then come with me!" Liu Ming said.

"Yes!"

"Master, Young Master Xu Yao has arrived and is waiting for you at the inn up ahead," Liu Ming's personal servant said respectfully as he approached Liu Ming.

"Okay! I'll be right there!" Liu Ming nodded.

"Alright, I'll go and inform the master right away. We'll have dinner together when you return."

"Ok."

After Xu Yao and Liu Ming arrived at an inn, Xu Yao saw an old man approaching. Upon seeing the old man, a look of joy appeared on Xu Yao's face.

Xu Yao's eyes were filled with excitement.

He never expected to see Liu Ming here.

"Xu Yao, it's been a long time," Liu Ming said.

"Old Liu, we meet again! Your strength has increased once more!"

Xu Yao said with a smile, a bright smile on his face.

He is currently at the peak of the ninth level of the Spirit Venerable realm, only one step away from the Spirit Saint realm.

His current cultivation speed in the Heavenly Pill Sect far surpasses that of ordinary disciples.

"Hehe, Xu Yao, it's been a long time since we last met," Liu Ming said with a smile on his face.

"Is there something important that you've come to the Heavenly Pill Sect this time?"

"That's right! We're here to find a weapon refiner!"

Liu Ming said that he had no way to hide it anymore, so he simply told the truth.

"What, Elder Liu, you're looking for a weapon refiner?"

Upon hearing Liu Ming's words, Xu Yao's face showed surprise, knowing that weapon refiners were extremely valuable.

Once he learns weapon crafting, his cultivation level will increase significantly, and he will be able to have even greater strength.

“That’s right, I need a weapon refiner. That’s why I came to Luoyang City this time.”

"I know you have many friends in Luoyang City. I hope they can recommend a few weapon refiners to my residence. I am willing to pay a hefty sum!"

Liu Ming looked at Xu Yao and spoke.
