Memories are like ever-blooming stone flowers, yet only the self believes them to be eternal. Ultimately, what they bring is the ruthlessness of reincarnation; perhaps no one will wait this time.
Gu Liyan's expression changed drastically as she looked in Zhang Wei's direction. Zhang Wei was standing within the range of the Dragon-Tiger Breaking Mirror, looking completely deranged.
"If I could tame these two divine beasts, wouldn't I gain control over all the demon races?" Zhang Wei laughed maniacally. "Hahaha, it seems the heavens are on my side!"
As he spoke, Zhang Wei excitedly reached out and began to arrange the contract.
Gu Liyan's expression immediately changed drastically, and he shouted, "Stop!"
Without saying a word, Gu Liyan used all her strength, pushing her speed to the limit as she rushed forward, directly breaking Zhang Wei's contract seal.
Seeing Gu Liyan suddenly appear and interrupt him, Zhang Wei immediately flew into a rage, "You damned brat! Even if you have reached the Enlightenment Realm, you're just at your last gasp! Die!"
Zhang Wei punched Gu Liyan in the chest, causing Gu Liyan to spit blood onto Zhang Wei's face. However, Zhang Wei wouldn't let Gu Liyan fall. He grabbed Gu Liyan's collar and cursed, "It's a disgrace to our human race to have a weakling like you! You dare to befriend demon beasts? You're tired of living!"
After saying that, he clenched his fist and punched Gu Liyan again and again.
Gu Liyan was in excruciating pain, but he was too weak to cry out. His whole body was already limp, and only the remaining life force within his body was doing its last bit of strength to protect Gu Liyan's heart.
At this moment, the morning light rose from the horizon and shone on Gu Liyan, bringing a warm feeling, but all he felt now was pain!
Seeing that Gu Liyan was already on the verge of death, Zhang Wei sneered, "Alright, brat, I'm tired of playing with you! Let me see your true colors before I send you to your grave!"
Zhang Wei grabbed Gu Liyan by the neck with one hand and removed Gu Liyan's mask with the other.
Removing his mask, Zhang Wei was surprised to see Gu Liyan's face, but also pleasantly surprised. "So you're the young lad from Qingge Hall? Hahaha, looks like I can still take you back and play with you!"
Gu Liyan was panting heavily, unable to breathe and powerless to struggle as Zhang Wei choked her. She could only look at him with those pitiful eyes.
Upon seeing this, Zhang Wei burst into laughter, "Hahaha, what a gem!"
Zhang Wei flung Gu Liyan to the ground, pinned her down, and laughed lewdly, "Hahaha, I never thought I'd encounter such good fortune today! Even the top courtesan of Qingge Hall doesn't have such a stunning face!"
Gu Liyan frowned at him, gritted her teeth, and scolded, "You... shameless!"
"Haha, her voice is still so tender and pleasant, truly the best of the best!" With that, Zhang Wei reached out to untie Gu Liyan's belt.
Gu Liyan's face was pale with a hint of red; she never expected to be pinned down by a man!
Even if I die... I will never submit to you!
A ruthless glint flashed in Gu Liyan's eyes, and her fingernails suddenly extended, stabbing straight at Zhang Wei's temple.
However, Zhang Wei, who was on guard, blocked the attack. With a ferocious expression, he pressed down on Gu Liyan's hands and cursed, "So you had such a weapon on you, you little bitch! Today I'll make you taste what it's like to be worse than dead!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a blinding red light flashed, and Zhang Wei felt a blur before his eyes, and Gu Liyan disappeared from his sight.
"Who?" Zhang Wei broke out in a cold sweat, turning his head to see a young man in black robes staring intently at him with bloodshot eyes, his gaze like that of a hunter. "Who are you...?"
Before Zhang Wei could speak again, he saw a stunningly beautiful young man in magnificent gold attire with a gold tattoo between his eyebrows behind the black-clad youth. The young man was supporting Gu Liyan, who was covered in blood, and was looking at him coldly with narrowed amber eyes.
Their gazes were sharp, cold, and filled with boundless killing intent.
"You..." Before Zhang Wei could say anything, the golden-clad youth glanced at the other five people behind Zhang Wei and coldly said, "So it was you who severely injured him? Good! Very good! Little Tiger, kill them all!"
The young man in black smiled coldly, "That's exactly what I was thinking!"
As soon as the words were spoken, everyone felt a dark shadow flash past them, followed by a chill on their necks, and then the world in their vision went dark...
In the blink of an eye, only Zhang Wei remained of the six people.
Seeing the two men, Zhang Wei turned deathly pale, his legs went weak, and he knelt on the ground, stammering, "Two big shots, I... I didn't know this young man was your friend. I thought... I thought he was a member of the demon race, so I..."
"Pfft..." Before Zhang Wei could finish speaking, Gu Liyan spat out another mouthful of blood, her beautiful face deathly pale.
Xiao Long's expression turned cold as he supported Gu Liyan, and asked gently, "Gu Liyan, are you alright?"
Hearing Xiaolong's voice, Gu Liyan looked at him and smiled wryly, "Luckily you arrived in time, otherwise I..."
At this point, Gu Liyan's voice gradually weakened, and she collapsed unconscious in Xiaolong's arms.
Upon seeing this, Xiaolong was instantly enraged. He coldly glanced at Zhang Wei and then let out a roar, which was actually the sound of a dragon's cry.
Upon hearing the dragon's roar, Zhang Wei froze on the spot. "You, you are..."
At this point, Zhang Wei's pupils suddenly contracted, and his body suddenly went limp and collapsed. As he fell, blood flowed from his seven orifices, severing his life force!
Xiao Hu approached Gu Liyan, scrutinized Gu Liyan's stunningly handsome face, and said with displeasure, "This is Gu Liyan? He's freaking handsome!"
Xiao Long's expression was grave. He looked at Gu Liyan, whose clothes were somewhat disheveled, and his face flushed slightly. However, his gaze lingered more on the wound on Gu Liyan's chest. He immediately said, "Don't gloat! We've both committed a grave mistake this time; we might have killed him..."
"Huh?" Little Tiger scratched his head. "It can't be that bad, can it? He only got stabbed a few times and hit a few times. Are fox demons these days so fragile?"
