Chapter 10
He was on the verge of collapse.
“Cough, cough, cough ...”
The hall was in a mess at the moment. Broken tables and chairs were everywhere. Smoke and dust scattered and shrouded the entire room. The sound of coughing rose and fell.
Crack!
Liu Yuan waved his sword to block the last arrow. It was cut in half at the waist, and the two halves fell to the ground.
He calmly flicked his robe and continued to walk toward Yue Longzhang with his sword in hand.
It had only been a few seconds since Yue Longzhang had discovered his tracks and launched an attack. The ordinary martial artists in the villa had basically only seen a ball of sword light flashing through the blue mist.
Liu Yuan and Yue Longzhang both jumped up and down, their figures flickering, dazzling the eyes. Finally, the scene was fixed on Yue Longzhang retreating in a sorry state, and Liu Yuan cutting the arrows and advancing forward.
At this moment, anyone could see the current situation.
Gu Siyin could not care less about her jealousy. She was so excited that her face was red and she waved her little fists. “Brother Jun Xuan is so amazing!”
She could not help but puff out her chest, as proud as she was.
Yue Longzhang’s two moves had failed, and his body was also wounded by the Sword Qi. He was in a sorry state, and he staggered two steps back. He then saw the gazes of those mortals that contained joy and disdain.
It was as if this mortal was saying ‘Weren’t you all high and mighty just now? Now, you’re as laughable as a stray dog, hahahaha.’
The way Liu Yuan walked over was calm and aloof. Yue Longzhang gasped for breath and suddenly laughed in a low voice. He then roared like a mad demon,”I heard it just now! You’re shouting for Gu Siyin, right?”
He suddenly turned around and flew towards Gu Siyin.
Buzzzzzz!
The blue-green cloud painting on Yue Longzhang’s folding fan suddenly unfolded and the cloud and fog swept towards the people standing there, and the first to bear the brunt was Gu Siyin!
Gu Siyin did not react in time.
But Liu Yuan reacted. He looked at Yue Longzhang and did not run over to stop him. Instead, he stopped in his tracks with a speechless expression.
“Rongrong!”
Yue Longzhang did not manage to react.
He subconsciously regarded Ning Xiangrong as the cold Senior Sister who would never respond. However, this time, she belonged to someone else.
Ning Xiangrong’s eyes behind the veil met Liu Yuan’s gaze and she said softly, “You owe me one this time.”
She stretched out her slender hand and an illusionary full moon suddenly appeared in front of Gu Siyin. The water rippled and the moonlight spread out, forming a distorted independent space and wiping out the green clouds.
“Water Moon Immortal Cave!”
When Yue Longzhang saw this Water Moon Dock’s signature Core Formation technique, he knew that it was Ning Xiangrong. He hissed, “Senior Sister, how can you help an outsider kill someone from the same sect?! You’ll be expelled from the sect if you do this!”
Ning Xiangrong looked at Liu Yuan and said, “An outsider? He’s not an outsider...”
“Then who is he?!” Yue Longzhang roared.
Who was he?
Yue Longzhang was about to go crazy. He could not figure it out no matter how much he thought about it. He had clearly investigated Chiyu Villa and found no cultivators. Where did this person suddenly come from? And he even knew Ning Xiangrong, who had stayed in the sect for many years and never left?
It could even make her do something that was equivalent to betraying the sect!
However, Ning Xiangrong did not know who Liu Yuan was, so she felt more and more resentful and could only say, “He will be my husband.”
Crack.
Yue Longzhang’s fan broke into two.
It was cut off by Liu Yuan.
Liu Yuan was not an NPC who just stood there and dealt damage. Naturally, he found an opportunity to attack. He moved forward and cut off Yue Longzhang’s weapon with one strike, then aimed for his throat.
Yue Longzhang watched helplessly as Liu Yuan’s sword got closer and closer.
“Junior Brother! Save me!”
However, Ma Shu seemed to be scared out of his wits. He was stunned on the side of the seat. He was awakened by Yue Longzhang’s roar and stood up in a panic, but it was too late.
Buzzzzzz!
The sword only left a thin and long wound on Yue Longzhang’s throat, but the sharp edge of the sword had pierced through the back of his neck.
“Yueyue... You... You...”
In the end, Yue Longzhang did not look at Liu Yuan, who had killed him, but rather Ning Xiangrong, who had been watching from the side.
But Ning Xiangrong’s eyes were on Liu Yuan from the beginning to the end.
“Ha... Hahaha... I...”
Yue Longzhang’s eyes suddenly bulged out as he laughed, and he died of exhaustion after a few laughs, with his eyes wide open.
“Phew...” Liu Yuan let out a breath and pulled out his long sword. Blood sprayed out and Yue Longzhang’s body fell to the ground.
He lowered his head and looked at Yue Longzhang’s corpse. He did not feel anything special in his heart, and instead, he let out a sigh of relief.
Perhaps it was because when Yue Longzhang was an NPC, and he had already killed Yue Longzhang countless times.
Liu Yuan used his spiritual power to shake off the bloodstains on the sword. He then put the sword back into the scabbard.
He turned around, and his eyes swept over the people of the villa who had survived, as well as Ning Xiangrong, and said, “As witnesses, Yue Longzhang attacked me first for no reason, and I had no choice but to defend myself.”
“Yes, yes, yes, we all saw it. You were forced to fight back,” the Housekeeper of the villa, He Ren, quickly shouted.
Nonsense, if he did not go along with the flow at this time, it was possible that this guy will continue his rampage, right?
He wiped the sweat from his forehead and thought to himself, ‘When Immortals fight, mortals suffer. It’s really fortunate that the scope of this battle wasn’t too wide. Those who weren’t protected by Ning Xiangrong in the hall had all become corpses on the ground.’
Moreover, the corpses all died in a tragic manner, causing one to feel fear in their hearts.
He had no choice but to defend himself... My ass!
Take a look at the body on the ground! He was clearly being dominated and beaten by you the entire time, without any power to resist. You could even say that he was being toyed to death.
The corners of everyone’s mouth twitched, but they all agreed. Gu Siyin flew into Liu Yuan’s arms like a swallow, her eyes shining as she complimented him.
The Housekeeper, He Ren, immediately ordered the rest of the people to clean up the scene and helped Gu Feidao to sit down.
Gu Feidao coughed twice, which attracted the worried gazes of He Ren and Gu Siyin. He seemed to have been holding up his aura earlier. Otherwise, he would not have stood by and watched when the two of them started fighting.
He raised his eyes and looked at Liu Yuan, asking, “May I ask who Your Excellency is?”
“Father, he is...” Gu Siyin raised her hand and puffed out her chest.
Liu Yuan stretched out his hand to stop her. He took two steps forward and looked at the old man. “I’m Liu Yuan, Liu Jun Xuan, an itinerant cultivator traveling the world. I was seriously injured a few days ago, and I would like to thank you for taking me in and allowing me to nurse my wounds.”
Gu Feidao’s expression was grave. “It’s nothing. It’s just that you have killed a disciple from Water Moon Dock...”
“It doesn’t matter. Yue Longzhang acted without distinguishing between right and wrong. He only has himself to blame. With me as a guarantee, Mr. Jun Xuan will definitely be safe and sound.” Ning Xiangrong stepped forward, took Liu Yuan’s hand with a smile, and emphasized the words ‘Mr. Jun Xuan’.
Liu Yuan clearly saw her looking at Gu Siyin, who was pulling on his other sleeve.
“You didn’t say anything earlier. Who are you?” Gu Feidao asked.
“I am Water Moon Dock’s inner sect successor disciple, Ning Xiangrong.”
