    A dead silence.</p>

    The wooden sculpture, Qin Batian, gazed at Jian Wuji with an expressionless face, but that empty look was more creepy than any expression.</p>

    "Swish!"</p>

    As if it had accomplished its mission, the wooden sculpture giant slowly shrunk, eventually changing back to its original size and falling to the ground.</p>

    Jian Wuji’s gaze, crossing over the wooden carvings on the ground, looked towards Bo Qianjing and asked, "Was it the Martial Arts Alliance that exterminated your entire clan?"</p>

    His voice, slightly trembled, after years of traversing the jianghu, he had experienced countless great storms and waves, but at this moment, he was overwhelmed with shock.</p>

    Bo Qianjing’s heart was filled with pleasure as he watched Jian Wuji’s expression.</p>

    What about it? You, the self-proclaimed smartest devilish young master, what else do you have to say now?</p>

    "What? You don’t believe that the Martial Alliance Master would do such a thing?" Bo Qianjing sneered.</p>

    "That’s right, I don’t believe it." Jian Wuji said firmly, "The Alliance Master Qin I know would never do such a thing."</p>

    Although Qin Batian was overbearing, he was not a murderous person, he would never exterminate someone’s entire family for no reason.</p>

    "Then why did he do it, do you think?" Burqian Mirror asked.</p>

    Bo Qianjing didn’t answer, but only said coldly, "I’ve said enough."</p>

    He once again activated the "Wood Form Thousand Souls Technique", wanting to stop Jian Wuji from continuing to pursue the matter.</p>

    "Swish Swish Swish ……"</p>

    This time, only three carved wooden giants stood up.</p>

    They walked slowly, with a calm and steady pace and an imposing presence, very different from the wooden giants from before.</p>

    With a single glance, Jian Wuji could tell that these three wooden carved giants, unlike the previous ones, were even more powerful and dangerous.</p>

    But this time, he didn’t draw his sword, but instead inserted his longsword back into its scabbard.</p>

    When Bo Qianjing saw this, he was puzzled, and just as he was puzzled, Jian Wuji suddenly moved.</p>

    "Swish!"</p>

    Jian Wuji executed the "Underworld Steps", and with a flash of his body, he arrived in front of the three wooden giants and blasted out a fist.</p>

    "Boom!"</p>

    With a loud bang, accompanied by deafening thunder, the wooden sculpture of the giant right in the middle was instantly blasted to pieces.</p>

    That was the first punch of the Fist Demon’s mastery, the first punch of the "Thunderbolt Shura Fist", the "Black Cloud Shura"!</p>

    The other two wooden carved giants, however, were not the least bit moved and continued to attack Jian Wuji.</p>

    "Swish! Swish!"</p>

    The two wooden swords, with their powerful sword qi, stabbed straight at Jian Wuji’s vitals.</p>

    "He’s dead!"</p>

    Bo Qianjing secretly said in his heart, these two swords, their speed was extremely fast, their angles were tricky, Jian Wuji could not dodge them at all.</p>

    Just a moment before the two wooden swords were about to pierce through Jian Wuji’s body!</p>

    Jian Wuji’s figure suddenly disappeared.</p>

    "Shift!"</p>

    At the same time, a deafening thunderclap sounded once again.</p>

    "Boom!"</p>

    The second wooden giant’s head, too, was blasted to pieces.</p>

    The last wooden sculpture giant, still not giving up, continued to attack Jian Wuji.</p>

    However, Jian Wuji was no longer in the same place, he performed the "Shadow Step" and instantly moved to another location.</p>

    "Boom!"</p>

    A third thunderclap, even louder, and the head of the last of the wooden carved giants, was blasted to pieces.</p>

    Three wooden carved giants, all killed in one move.</p>

    Bo Qianjing’s body, trembled slightly, he had never imagined that he would feel so much fear in his own territory.</p>

    Jian Wuji bent down and picked up a wooden sculpture of a giant that had its head blown off and said, "They are a bit different from the previous wooden sculptures."</p>

    "Of course it’s different, they were carefully carved by me." Burqian Mirror said.</p>

    "Why are you wasting your time, carving these wood carvings?" Jian Wuji asked.</p>

    "Are you mocking me?" Bo Qianjing said angrily.</p>

    "If they taunt you, I’ll stomp them to pieces or, alternatively, piss on them." Jian Wuji said, "I know how much effort you’ve put into carving these wooden sculptures."</p>

    "Even so, you won’t live through today." Bo Qianjing said.</p>

    "Then why don’t you tell me the truth? I’m going to die anyway, so what else do you have to hide?" Jian Wuji said, "Why do you have to carry so many secrets? Why do you have to live such a painful life?"</p>

    Jian Wuji’s words were like a sharp sword that pierced into the depths of Bo Qianjing’s heart.</p>

    That’s right. He’s carrying too many secrets. He’s living too much.</p>

    "You …… you less talk nonsense here!" Bo Qianjing said angrily.</p>

    "Tell me, I want to know your story." Jian Wuji said.</p>

    The gazes of the two, once again, met, and Bo Qianjing could feel that Jian Wuji was genuinely trying to get to know him, not to use him.</p>

    He slowly reached out his hand and pointed to a group of wooden statues in the distance.</p>

    "Swish Swish Swish ……"</p>

    The group of wooden sculptures, suddenly came to life and turned into life-sized wooden giants, but instead of attacking Jian Wuji, they began to fight each other.</p>

    Jian Wuji knew that Bo Qianjing was using this way to show him what he had experienced.</p>

    The clearing, transformed into a stage, plays out the past of Burqian Mirror.</p>

    A masked wooden giant, holding a long sword, was slaughtering other wooden giants, whether male or female, old or young, none of them could escape his clutches.</p>

    "The Wooden Sky Family ……" Jian Wuji said in his heart.</p>

    Burqian Mirror was showing him how the Muten family had been exterminated.</p>

    Those fallen wooden carved giants seemed to have turned into people he was familiar with, their faces, one by one, surfaced in his mind.</p>

    That masked wooden giant, after killing all the wooden giants, finally stopped.</p>

    "Do you want to know why I spent ten years carving these wood carvings? Do you want to know why I don’t care if a war breaks out? Do you want to know why I dared to take the granddaughter of the Martial Alliance Master captive?" Bo Qianjing’s voice, filled with hatred and anger, "Because, I’ve been waiting for the opportunity to take revenge, I want those murderers who killed my people to pay in blood!"</p>

    His voice, full of grief and despair.</p>

    "Did you see it with your own eyes?" Jian Wuji asked.</p>

    "I didn t see it with my own eyes, but when I came back, they had all ……" Burqian Mirror suddenly choked up as he said this, and he couldn t say any more.</p>

    "Then why would you think that it was the Martial Alliance Master who did it?" Jian Wuji asked.</p>

    "Someone saw it." Birchglass said.</p>

    "Who?" Jian Wuji asked.</p>

    "It was our family’s butler, he was covered in blood and dying, he told me before he died that the murderer was a martial arts ally." Bo Qianjing said.</p>

    Jian Wuji didn’t say anything, he didn’t know, whether this matter was true or false, the human heart was unpredictable, and no one could guarantee, that the butler was telling the truth.</p>

    However, he was still inclined to believe that this incident was not the work of Qin Batian because he knew that Bo Qianjing was a follower of Old Man Transformation Demon, who, in turn, was Qin Batian’s mortal enemy.</p>

    "But, Martial Alliance Master, why did you want to exterminate your entire family?" Jian Wuji asked.</p>

    He really couldn’t think of any reason why Qin Batian would want to lay his hands on the Mutian family.</p>

    Just then, a possibility occurred to him.</p>

    "Could it be that …… it was because of your clan that killed the alliance master s son and daughter in law?" Jian Wuji asked.</p>

    When Bo Qianjing heard this, his face turned ironic, but he didn’t deny it.</p>

    "It seems that you already know." Jian Wuji said.</p>

    "Even if I knew, what would it do? Could it cancel out their sins?" Bo Qianjing angrily said, "I take revenge, and it’s for the sake of my clan, so why should I implicate the innocent?"</p>
