Rosen gritted his teeth. As a renowned earl of the Edward family, how could he not be furious that his proud domain had been so easily cracked?

He had only felt this kind of anger a hundred years ago.

At that time, Edward was not the only member of the Edward family.

Unfortunately, due to the greed of some people in the empire, the Edward family became history.

Thousands of lights are on.

But the light that belonged to him went out.

There was no longer a light to illuminate his lost path and guide him home.

If his original body hadn't been away at the time, leaving only his clone to accompany his family, he would have died under the holy sword.

For nearly a century, he kept a low profile, secretly rebuilding his strength.

The hunt failed, and the hunter was pecked in the eye instead.

He underestimated the current state of metaphysics.

And once again, we see the gap.

He was furious.

He abandoned the gentlemanly manners passed down through his family and extended his fangs towards Zuo Chen, who seemed powerless.

Unfortunately, Qu Jian'er wouldn't let him have his way.

Rosen dodged Qu Jian'er's counterattack and saw her silent anger. He grinned and said, "You were worried about him just now? He's your weakness!"

Zuo Chen paused.

He stared at Qu Jian'er in shock.

Because I knew, I was shocked.

Given his current relationship with Qu Jian'er, it's impossible for him to be seen as Qu Jian'er's weakness.

The word "soft spot" symbolizes the tenderness in one's heart. How could he allow those around him to expose their own soft spots?

At this moment, Qu Jian'er appeared unchanged, but her rapid, shallow breathing betrayed her chaotic thoughts.

Rosen seemed to remember something, a madness flashing in his eyes; long ago, he too had a lover.

But now, everything is gone.

Then what right do others have to possess it?

Jealousy blinded Rosen; he wanted to break up this couple who were still not on their way.

As the incantation began.

A magic circle emitting black smoke lit up, and then many bats emerged from it.

These bats gathered and hovered in the air.

Qu Jian'er sensed that things were getting tricky.

It's not that she can't handle it.

We are still dealing with it.

She might accidentally hurt Zuo Chen.

In the past, there was no one around her who could distract her, but today was different.

She had just realized her own feelings.

And Zuo Chen happened to be right next to her.

Qu Jian'er's eyes narrowed, her voice turning slightly cold: "I advise you not to make any moves on him."

Without leaving a trace, she took out the spatial button clipped to her waist, no longer concealing her identity, and prepared to reveal her twin Nightmare Blades.

Rosen readily agreed: "Okay."

But he responded immediately.

Countless bats swept in.

A portion of them rushed straight towards Zuo Chen.

Zuo Chen is a genius in other fields, but at this moment, he is powerless.

It could even be said that they were completely defenseless.

Zuo Chen said gently, "Don't worry about me."

He didn't know what was wrong with him. In this critical moment, disregarding his own safety, he only wanted to calm Qu Jian'er down and prevent her from panicking.

It seems that he had been under Qu Jian'er's protection for a long time and had long been accustomed to not letting himself be a burden, protecting himself while supporting Qu Jian'er.

The sudden sensation left him stunned and rooted to the spot.

He didn't know why he had this feeling.

So much so that for a moment I forgot to dodge.

How could Qu Jian'er not worry about Zuo Chen?

She gritted her teeth inwardly.

The Twin Nightmare Blades sensed something.

He glided to Zuo Chen at the speed of light first.

At the same time.

Rosen withdrew the bat, his expression somber, as if recalling painful memories: "It's pointless. Having been influenced by the culture of the Empire for so many years, I don't lay a hand on unarmed people."

He thought of his loved ones.

The other party had told him that killing members of the Xuanmen sect was acceptable, but not to disregard human life or harm ordinary people.

Qu Jian'er, who witnessed someone attacking Zuo Chen, did not stop; she looked up at Luo Sen.

He chuckled softly, like a malevolent spirit crawling out of hell. In an instant, countless flames erupted in Rosen's domain, scorching trees and bats alike.

Qu Jian'er gave the bats no chance to make a move, ending the battle prematurely.

She stood amidst the towering flames, gazing at Rosen with an indifferent look as if she were looking at a corpse.

Seeing the man as assertive as ever, Zuo Chen silently retracted his words of warning Qu Jian'er to be careful.

Rosen was completely bewildered.

Rosen was still a little confused: "Wait, how come you're suddenly so powerful..."

Before he could finish speaking...

He was lashed down with a whip.

Qu Jian'er slowly approached Rosen.

Their steps finally stopped in front of the other person.

Qu Jian'er said coldly, "If you don't stop in the end, you'll get a share of the paper money for the Qingming Festival next year."

She lashed Rosen with the whip again.

soon.

Rosen's body was covered in huge cracks; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that his skin was torn open.

The body is being attacked by karmic obstacles.

He even felt his soul trembling.

In this battle.

Qu Jian'er is far superior to Rosen.

If it weren't for Zuo Chen's sake...

Rosen had no chance to make a move.

Qu Jian'er clenched her fist, and the blood-red whip disappeared, while the twin Nightmare Blades that had been swirling around Zuo Chen fell into her hand.

The black wooden knife had no luster.

You can only see the peach wood grain when you get close.

The wooden knife without the handle is approximately 1.2m long.

Qu Jian'er skillfully twirled the knife and placed it against Rosen's neck.

Without the sheath to protect it.

The menacing aura emanating from the blade washed over us.
