"Mm." Liu Yue nodded and followed.

======

Zeng Baolin limped back to the dilapidated house, which could almost be described as bare. She breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Zou Chunsheng was not there.

But—Zou Chunsheng will come back sooner or later. Zeng Baolin shuddered at the thought of Zou Chunsheng's ruthless methods.

His eyes were ashen.

"Baolin".

A man's voice came from outside the door. Zeng Baolin was startled and quickly limped to the door, trying to close it.

But her strength was no match for Jun Wuchen's.

Jun Wuchen grabbed her hand, startling Zeng Baolin, who quickly withdrew her hand.

"Baolin, come with me," Jun Wuchen said earnestly.

Zeng Baolin slowly raised his head, and the face he remembered magnified before his eyes.

So many years have passed, she had almost forgotten that face.

He remained the same as always, but she had changed.

He was no longer the spirited Zeng Baolin of yesteryear.

“Young master, you’ve mistaken me for someone else.” Zeng Baolin’s voice was hoarse. “You’d better leave quickly, or if my husband sees you, I’ll be sure to give you a beating again.”

“I can take you away. We’ll leave this place and, like we said before, stay together for the rest of our lives.”

Jun Wuchen rarely lost his composure. The worst time he suffered was when his cultivation was crippled, and he was confined to a dark, sunless room, unable to see the light.

But now... seeing Zeng Baolin like this, his heart ached terribly.

Upon hearing this, a glimmer of light flashed in Zeng Baolin's lowered eyes, but it vanished in an instant and returned to its dim state.

“Young master, you jest. I am already married. How can I go with you?” Zeng Baolin laughed self-deprecatingly. Her life was ruined.

I no longer ask for anything.

As long as he's alright, seeing that he's alright puts her mind at ease.

"Come with me."

Before Zeng Baolin could speak, Jun Wuchen grabbed her hand.

"You still say you didn't seduce men, but you actually did it at home!" Zou Chunsheng had already had his wounds bandaged by a doctor, and behind him were three or four men with unfriendly expressions.

"It's you, trying to steal our boss's woman!?"

They came prepared, and they all brought their weapons.

"court death!"

He raised the stick and struck Jun Wuchen on the shoulder.

Jun Wuchen caught the stick, knocked the person away, and forcibly circulated his spiritual power, causing his chest to churn with blood and qi.

Yue'er had once warned him not to use his spiritual power.

But now... he can't care about that anymore.

Having faced countless life-and-death situations, Zeng Baolin immediately recognized Jun Wuchen's unusual behavior.

"Stop hitting me! I won't go with you!"

Zeng Baolin gritted his teeth and said.

"You bitch! You think he can leave? Ha!" Zou Chunsheng, his back hunched, couldn't help but cover his crotch with his hand. "Today, neither of you two will leave this yard! Brothers, get them! Beat them to death!!!"

Zou Chunsheng's face twisted in pain, but unfortunately that pretty little bitch wasn't there.

Once that bastard is dead, he'll capture that little bitch and have several men take turns humiliating her...

Overcome with passion, Zou Chunsheng burst into wild laughter. He wanted to see that little bitch tortured to death!

It turned him into a cripple!

These people were all highly skilled cultivators. If Jun Wuchen hadn't been injured, dealing with them would have been a piece of cake. But every time he used his spiritual power, his body felt like it was being cut by a knife.

Jun Wuchen snapped a person's neck and flung them away.

Grabbing Zeng Baolin's hand, she said, "Come on, don't refuse me."

Zeng Baolin clenched his fists, pushed Jun Wuchen aside, and resolutely blocked the man's attack, shouting, "You go!"

Faced with a palm strike from a Spirit Saint, Zeng Baolin was utterly powerless to retaliate!

Seeing this scene, Jun Wuchen was stunned. Although Zeng Baolin came from a humble background, he had dual talents in alchemy and spiritual cultivation!

He was already at the initial stage of the Spirit King realm back then, so why has he turned into this state?

"You're asking for it." Little White descended from the sky and sat down on the man's butt.

Xiao Bai did not transform into its original form, but it still weighed two or three hundred pounds, and it fell from the sky.

He immediately crushed the threatening man into a pulp.

He didn't even have time to scream.

Clang—!

The sound of the zither rose and fell, trapping the group within the barrier.

When Zou Chunsheng saw the girl appear in mid-air, he instinctively shivered, as if the shadow of being crippled was still vivid in his mind.

"Weren't you looking for me? Why are you running away?" Liu Yue chuckled as she watched Zou Chunsheng flee like a headless fly.

Her pale fingers plucked the strings.

Zou Chunsheng felt a moment of dizziness, and then the scene in front of him changed, with a ghostly face suddenly enlarged!

Zou Chunsheng committed numerous atrocities, torturing and killing countless people.

"A ghost! A ghost!"

"Second Uncle, you go first, leave this to me." Liu Yue sneered, dealing with this kind of scum was her specialty.

"I... my sworn brother is the city lord of Tianyun City. How dare you treat me like this? You're dead!" Zou Chunsheng was tortured beyond recognition, his wounds reopened, and he rolled on the ground in agony.

"Oh? I'll wait."

Liu Yue chuckled as she watched Zou Chunsheng scramble out in a disheveled state.

Clang—! The sound of the zither transformed into a blade, slicing open Zou Chunsheng's dantian.

Liuyue gave a cold laugh.

"You...you don't come any closer!"

Zou Chunsheng trembled, looking at Jun Liuyue who was walking towards him with fear.

However, just as she was about to deal with Zou Chunsheng...

"Stop!" a deep, stern voice commanded.

Seeing Zou Chunsheng's miserable state, the newcomer's face darkened as he looked at Jun Liuyue.

"What grudge do you hold against him that you would resort to such a cruel act?!"

The newcomer was none other than the City Lord of Tianyun City.

"As the Lord of Tianyun City, you condoned this person's burning, killing, looting, and all sorts of evil deeds. You are no good either."

"How dare you!" Zhang Ming sneered. "You, a mere woman, do you intend to change the name and ownership of Tianyun City?!"

Tianyun City is extremely prosperous because it is backed by the Alchemy Sect, and countless people come here every year seeking medicine.

Zhang Ming gave the girl a cold look. "I have already reported to the elders of the Alchemy Sect."

I thought Jun Liuyue would be frightened when she heard the name of the alchemy sect elder, but the other party calmly sat down in the grand master's chair.

"Oh, then I'll wait here."

"Brother, she has severely injured me, help me..."

"Someone, take Zou Chunsheng away for treatment."

Two guards stepped forward and helped Zou Chunsheng up.

Liu Yue raised an eyebrow slightly and gently flicked her pale hand.

Whoosh! Two guards with the cultivation level of Spirit Master were blasted away.

It slammed hard against the wall, causing the already dilapidated wall to collapse and pinning the guard underneath.

The young girl parted her pink lips slightly: "Did I give you permission to leave?"

"you!"
