"How could Nanmen Ruoxuan be so vicious?"
The people around them were talking amongst themselves. They had all thought that this young lady of the Snow Cold Blade Sect was so trustworthy. They had just said that Bai Yao, a demon, was not of their kind and her heart must be different.
Hearing their words, Nanmen Ruoxuan snorted coldly and said, "You despicable people, did I ever say that I am a true and upright young lady of a celestial sect? It's just wishful thinking on your part. Yes, their Heavenly Sword Sect is a prestigious and righteous sect, but our Snow Frost Blade Sect isn't? You despicable people dare to call yourselves righteous? Get out of here! Or I'll kill you all!"
Nanmen Ruoxuan's killing intent was overwhelming. Many people were stopped by her words, but the Nanmen family members were in a dilemma. However, someone stepped forward and said, "Brothers, what happened earlier must have been someone else's doing. The young lady would never harm us!"
At this moment, Lu Yuan looked at the changes happening in the field, a trace of disgust flashed in his eyes. In fact, a large part of the reason why he left the court back then was that he couldn't get along with those people. They were two-faced and treacherous. He just didn't expect that the immortal sects and the martial arts world were similar.
Looking back now, the Heavenly Sword Sect was his favorite place, at least most of the people there were sincere and upright.
Following the example set by their superiors, the sect leader, Liu Jiantang, is a man of chivalry and integrity, and many of the elders are upright and honest.
Lu Yuan stared at Nanmen Ruoxuan, lost in thought. He muttered to himself, "My hand's a little numb. What if I accidentally ruin this corpse? Will Nanmen Ruoxuan fight me? Junior Sister Bai Yao is here; she's quite strong now, so it shouldn't be a problem. Speaking of which, why is this corpse starting to stink? Will she think I haven't showered in days? That shouldn't be the case, I just washed in the river yesterday… Should I reveal what happened back then in public? Would that offend Nanmen Ruoxuan terribly? If I use all my strength, I should be able to escape, but Junior Sister Ai Yue is a different story. Junior Uncle is still in his room; I need to buy some time. Oh well, I'll play the villain…"
Lu Yuan finally came to his senses, looking at Nanmen Ruoxuan's cold face, while his junior sister Bai Yao nudged him with her elbow.
Nanmen Ruoxuan seemed to say something, but Lu Yuan was distracted and didn't hear it clearly, so he asked again, "Huh? What did you just say?"
Nanmen Ruoxuan thought he was deliberately provoking her. "I said! Put him down, and everything will be fine! If you provoke me again, I will make everyone in your Heavenly Sword Sect pay with their lives today!"
Lu Yuan pondered for a moment and said, "What's the rush? Nanmen Ruoxuan, there aren't many people in this world who can make you care this much, right? After all, your brother is in my junior uncle's hands, yet you don't care about his life or death at all, but you care about a corpse in my hands. This person is Tuoba Hongen, isn't he?"
At this moment, the arena erupted in commotion.
"What? Tuoba Hongen, that's the old sect leader's adopted son, right? I heard he grew up with the sect leader and the young lady, and they were like siblings. For the young lady of the Nanmen family to value him so much, could that corpse really be him?"
"Shh! Don't talk nonsense. Tuoba Hongen is a foreigner and a disgrace to the Nanmen family. If you bring him up now, aren't you just reopening the wounds of the Nanmen family?"
Nanmen Ruoxuan's expression changed drastically. She turned around and slashed with her sword, the blade cutting across the land and affecting many innocent disciples of the immortal sects. She gritted her teeth and said, "What do you know?! Shut up! He was born a member of the Nanmen family, and he will die a member of the Nanmen family! Even if he is of Northern Barbarian blood, he is still a member of the Nanmen family. How can you two-faced villains insult him at will!"
At this moment, Lu Yuan seemed to remember something, and his expression suddenly became somewhat solemn. He then carefully placed the corpse in his hands behind his back. "Nanmen Ruoxuan, I will not destroy his body. In the end, his death is also related to me. I will just wait for my junior uncle to come out and take them away. At that time, I will return Tuoba Hongen's remains to you safely."
"What does this have to do with you? And who are you?"
"My name is Lu Yuan, and I used to have another name, Lu Yuanzong."
Nanmen Ruoxuan frowned, looking at Lu Yuan in surprise. "You? You're Lu Yuanzong? Hmph, do you think I'd believe your nonsense? The sect leader of the Heavenly Sword Sect is that demon? Who would believe that?"
