However, Murong Chui quickly regained his senses; he had only been dizzy for a moment…

To his surprise, when he opened his eyes, he saw an ugly face facing him, and for a moment Murong Chui was truly disgusted...

vomit…

Murong Chui even forgot his own condition and started gagging...

This made Xuan Shan's face darken. He thought to himself, "I deserve to die! I shouldn't have tried to save you. To have to suffer such a humiliating disgrace after saving someone..."

Bang…

Enraged, Xuan Shan threw him to the ground with a dull thud...

What are you doing?

A disheveled and furious Murong Chui questioned...

Xuan Shan rolled his eyes at him, thinking to himself, "Don't you know what I'm doing? Just looking at me makes me want to vomit. Do I look that disgusting?"

"Of course I'd save you..."

Xuan Shan said arrogantly, as if to say, "Someone ranked eleventh was saved by me, ranked fifteenth, and yet he dares to call himself my senior brother..."

Murong Chui also looked disgusted, thinking to himself, "Did I need you to save me? You almost made me sick..."

"Hey...did you guys forget something...?"

I interrupted their argument, thinking to myself, "Do you two not value my son anymore?"

After both of them turned their attention to me, I mocked them without giving them any face.

"What's there to argue about, you two good-for-nothings?"

"Junior Brother Murong, I can't take it anymore, can you?"

Xuan Shan didn't want to go himself, so he steered the conversation towards Murong Chui...

Murong Chui wasn't stupid; he wouldn't fall into such a low-level trap, so he curled his lip and said...

"If you can't stand it, then you go do it! I'm ashamed for you. They wanted you to be their mount..."

"So you call yourselves experts on the Prodigy Ranking? Don't embarrass yourselves with trash like you. I'll give you a chance, come at me all at once! If my son even flinchs, I'll change my surname to his..."

Upon hearing my words, their eyes lit up instantly. Both of them were a little apprehensive about a one-on-one fight, having been hit quite hard by the sealing stone...

But two against one is a different story. One of them excels at defense, and the other at offense. Their strengths complement each other, and in their eyes, it's a sure win...

The two exchanged a glance and nodded, indicating their approval of the method. Although it was somewhat shameful for two Saint-level prodigies to bully an Emperor-level person, it was all worth it as long as they obtained the Sealing Stone…

They then looked at Tuoba San in unison, after all, he was the protagonist, and this kind of battle where they had no advantage required his approval...

"Are you two useless idiots going to fight or not? Stop dawdling and delay me from getting a mount for my father..."

Holy crap…

That's incredibly arrogant...

"Go to hell..."

Murong Chui unleashed a furious attack, his longsword transforming into a streak of light as it hurtled straight towards Tuoba San…

Faced with such a powerful attack, Tuoba San dared not be careless. He threw the sealing stones at the two men, intending to defeat them one by one...

However, the Dragon-Patterned Turtle's defense was no joke. Even as the sealing stones rained down on it time and time again, it remained firmly defended. Meanwhile, Murong Chui's attacks were extremely fierce. As expected of a prodigy, his attack methods were endless, and their power even surpassed that of Tuoba San...

The three fought fiercely, their battle so intense that even Ming Chi was mesmerized, his eyes gleaming with admiration…

Just then, her brows furrowed suddenly, because she sensed a familiar presence…

boom…

The sound of three people clashing rang out, and a powerful shockwave radiated outwards from the point of impact...

As both sides regained their footing and prepared to continue the fight, the rumbling didn't stop...

The three looked into the distance with a sense of bewilderment. In that direction, something seemed to be awakening, emanating a chilling aura…

I naturally sensed it too, but to avoid arousing Mingchi's suspicion, I pretended nothing was wrong...

Without any hesitation, Xuan Shan and Murong Chui soared into the sky, heading straight for the source of the aura…

Tuoba San frowned and looked at me. He was really worried about leaving me alone...

I said indifferently

"Son, go ahead. If you find any valuable treasure, be sure to seize it. And don't forget to bring me back that tortoise mount..."

Hearing my words, everyone fell silent. That terrifying aura was frightening even from this distance; going there would be no different from committing suicide…

Moreover, now that Xuanshan and Murong Chui are cooperating, it's impossible for them to capture Xuanshan alone. If they can't beat them, can't they just run away?

"Third Brother, I'll go with you..."

Liu Lingxian immediately jumped out, intending to stand with Tuoba San in the same boat...

But Tuoba San's single sentence made her give up her plan to go together...

"Protect my father..."

Hearing this, Liu Lingxian was filled with joy. Her third brother had asked her to protect his father, and he actually trusted her so much…

Just as she was immersed in her happiness, Tuoba San had already soared into the sky, heading straight for the source of that terrifying aura...

A glint of shrewdness flashed in Ming Chi's eyes, and I immediately sensed her hostility...

Knowing this girl was up to something, how could I not give her a chance...?

So I said to Liu Lingxian

"Xian'er, go check on the mistress's situation. Don't get too close, to avoid danger..."

"But…"

Liu Lingxian hesitated. Tuoba San had entrusted her with protecting me; if she left now, what would happen to me? She wouldn't be able to explain it to Tuoba San…

"It's alright, go check on the situation and come back as soon as possible, everything will be fine..."

Hearing my words, Liu Lingxian was also worried about Tuoba San's situation, so her hesitation lasted only a second before she soared into the sky and chased after Tuoba San...

"You deliberately sent her away, didn't you?"

Ming Chi looked at me with a smile and asked, as if she had seen through everything...

I nodded and said in agreement.

"Yes, I was indeed trying to get her away..."

Ming Chi's eyes flickered. She had only said it casually; she hadn't expected it to actually be true...

This made her somewhat suspicious. She looked me up and down, and after a long while, she finally asked...

"What makes you so confident? You don't even care about me?"

I didn't answer her question, but calmly said...

"I'm just an ordinary person with no cultivation, what qualifications do I have..."

Ming Chi thought to herself, "I don't believe you for a second," but the more he kept quiet, the less she dared to act rashly, and she even started to become suspicious of herself...

She glanced at Murong Xuanxuan beside her; she was merely a Martial King, posing no threat whatsoever…

"I'm really just an ordinary person. I've always been honest with women and never lied..."

Hearing my words, Mingchi's gaze became even more puzzled, not understanding the deeper meaning behind my actions...
