"Xue'er, don't be angry. He's just a lowly commoner. Why are you so concerned about him?" Hong Tianpeng said with a slight smile of contempt.
"Hong Tianpeng! If you dare to lay a hand on Ye Liangchen, and he suffers even the slightest injury, I will not hesitate to fight my way back to the capital to settle accounts with you!" Li Xue's beautiful eyes widened, and her delicate body trembled slightly with anger.
Seeing this, Hong Tianpeng laughed nonchalantly: "Haha, Xue'er, it's not difficult for me to let Ye Liangchen go, but from now on, you must obediently return to the capital with me and must not have any further dealings with Ye Liangchen."
"Hong Tianpeng, you've gone too far! When did it become your place to interfere in my affairs?" Li Xue gritted her teeth in anger, wishing she could rush up and slap him right away.
However, facing Li Xue's angry rebuke, Hong Tianpeng remained unfazed and coldly said, "Xue'er, things have come to this point. If you refuse to agree to my conditions, then don't blame me for being ruthless. Now that Yuwei is not in my hands, I really cannot guarantee that the Dust People will be safe and sound."
"You...you've gone too far!" Li Xue trembled all over, pointing her finger at Hong Tianpeng, so angry she could barely speak.
"Xue'er, I almost forgot to tell you, there's about a quarter of an hour left. If I don't give any new instructions in a quarter of an hour, that mortal will be reduced to ashes."
“Hong Tianpeng, you’re a madman.”
Inside the Zhenyuan Division in Jiang Province, Jun Wuhen looked at a report in his hand.
Just now, traces of strange beasts have been discovered in multiple locations within Jiang Province.
Another report indicates that a supernatural energy riot was discovered not far from Jiang Province.
"Someone, immediately send someone to investigate this place. Remember, it's just to investigate. If there's any disturbance, come back and report immediately."
Outside the high-rise building, the links of the iron chain have come loose.
"Divine Child, it's untied."
Ye Liangchen nodded.
He remained standing there without taking any action.
A person quickly walked in through the doorway.
Zhao Yuwei is back.
She held a soft sword in her hand and placed it directly against Ye Liangchen's neck.
"Kid, your time is up. Unfortunately, Li Xue did not give up her freedom for your life. You can go now."
"etc."
Ye Liangchen was also somewhat surprised to hear Li Xue's name.
"Is the person you behind the scenes looking for Sister Xue?"
"That's right, kid. Otherwise, do you think you could catch our young master's eye? As for that little girl Su Yao, she wouldn't even be worthy of our young master's attention."
Ye Liangchen did not expect that the Su family, which was considered one of the top families in Jiang Province, still could not catch the eye of the person behind the scenes.
"Then, if I want to know Sister Xue's identity, you should be able to tell me, right?"
Zhao Yuwei laughed when she heard this.
“Boy, it seems you know nothing about Li Xue. Fine, since you’re about to die, I can tell you some information about Li Xue.”
Tell me about Li Xue, the character you know.
Zhao Yuwei didn't tell him directly, but instead asked Ye Liangchen about his impression of Li Xue.
"Sister Xue is a very virtuous woman, and she is also a martial arts master."
That's all?
"That's all."
Ye Liangchen summarized his impressions of Li Xue.
"Hmph, how utterly foolish," Zhao Yuwei mocked. "Li Xue is the daughter of the head of the Li family in Kyoto."
However, she was an illegitimate child, and at the time she had a younger brother.
The two siblings were outstanding and both entered Tianlong Academy. Unfortunately, her brother died not long after entering Tianlong Academy.
Upon hearing this, Li Xue unleashed a bloodbath in the capital. Those involved in the incident were either killed or maimed, earning her the title of "female killing goddess."
Unfortunately, her good fortune didn't last long. Li Xue went too far and was suppressed by Tianlong Academy, subsequently expelled. Only after the Li family head intervened did Tianlong Academy release her.
Ye Liangchen was startled, never expecting Li Xue to have such an astonishing background. At that moment, a strange commotion suddenly came from outside.
Another group of strange beasts has appeared.
"Damn it, what's going on?"
Zhao Yuwei looked at Ye Liangchen, wanting to feed him to the strange beast.
The bracelet then lit up.
"Yuwei, release that commoner."
"Yes, young master."
Zhao Yuwei put down the soft sword.
"Kid, you're lucky to be alive, but whether you can leave this place is up to you."
Zhao Yuwei leaped and disappeared into the darkness.
The strange beast realized that the powerful figure had already left.
They quickly surrounded them.
Ye Liangchen quickly broke free of his shackles.
The longsword instantly appeared in his hand.
If Zhao Yuwei dared to let her go, there's only one explanation: Sister Xue has already agreed to the conditions set by Zhao Yuwei's backer.
The sword shadow was unleashed instantly without leaving a trace.
The first few strange beasts fell to the ground instantly.
Ye Liangchen activated his heterochromatic eyes, and the iron piece flew out instantly.
But the strange beasts seemed inexhaustible; as they fell one after another, another would pounce on them.
Ye Liangchen gasped for breath, sweat dripping from his forehead, his eyes revealing exhaustion and helplessness. He knew his supernatural abilities were almost exhausted, but the number of monsters showed no signs of decreasing. He gripped his longsword tightly, trying to preserve his last bit of strength and courage.
Suddenly, a gigantic beast pounced on him. Ye Liangchen mustered all his strength to raise his longsword, trying to block the beast's attack. However, his strength was insufficient to support this movement; the beast easily knocked his sword away, and he was slammed to the ground.
Ye Liangchen felt his consciousness gradually fading, and he knew he could no longer fight.
Does this mean we really have to stay here?
Soon, a strange beast leaped up and pounced on Ye Liangchen.
Ye Liangchen grabbed the beast's neck with both hands.
Ye Liangchen could smell the stench coming from the beast's mouth.
Seeing the beast's fangs, Ye Liangchen's will to survive was constantly being stimulated.
He punched the beast in the neck.
The beast roared, its head thrashing about.
Ye Liangchen threw a second punch.
With each punch landing, the fate of this strange beast was sealed.
But the strange beasts swarmed around them again.
"Damn it, I'll risk it."
Ye Liangchen rushed forward.
Ye Liangchen grabbed one of the strange beasts and began hand-to-hand combat.
But this time, he was kicked away by the beast as soon as he pounced on it.
After being kicked away, Ye Liangchen was immediately attacked by the strange beast.
Ye Liangchen is a great treasure to them.
They all wanted to eat Ye Liangchen.
The strange beast recently bit down on Ye Liangchen's neck.
