"don't want!"
Upon seeing this, Mei Ruohua's face turned deathly pale. Ignoring her own injuries, she staggered forward, actually preparing to use her own body to block Cao Shenjiang's incredibly powerful palm strike.
Seeing Mei Ruohua like this, Yelü Hong was both anxious and moved. He gritted his teeth and rushed forward to protect Mei Ruohua.
General Cao's expression changed slightly as he looked at the scene before him.
He thought to himself: If this palm strike lands, Mei Ruohua will surely die, and then he will have no hostage. How will he explain this to Young Master Fang?
"If Mei Ruohua is to die, she can only die at the hands of Young Master Fang. If Young Master Fang hasn't killed Mei Ruohua, who would dare to kill her?"
Just as Cao Shenjiang was hesitating, a voice drifted over from a great distance.
As the sound faded, Cao Shen's giant palm of condensed true energy unexpectedly hovered in the air, unable to move forward even an inch.
General Cao was greatly alarmed. He knew that another expert at the Divine Sense Realm must have arrived.
Because only a master of the Divine Sense Realm can control his giant palm of true energy.
Moreover, these people are probably not even at the early stage of the Divine Sense Realm; their realms may be higher than his, reaching the middle stage of the Divine Sense Realm or even higher.
He couldn't help but begin to doubt whether Yanming City was really as Zhao Wu had said, with the city lord Ye Zhong, the city's number one expert, only having the cultivation of the early Foundation Establishment stage.
However, he and Zhou Shenjiang had only been in Yanming City for a short time, less than the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, when they encountered Mei Ruohua and Yelü Hong, two Foundation Establishment Realm experts, as well as the mysterious and unpredictable Hongxiu, and these two Divine Sense Realm experts who had not yet shown themselves but whose strength was terrifying.
Just how many untold secrets does this Yanming City hold?
But a miracle, like a ray of dawn, descended once more.
Mei Ruohua and Yelü Hong, who had been tense, instantly breathed a long sigh of relief.
They astutely recognized that the person who said, "If Mei Ruohua is to die, she can only die at Fang Han's hands; no one else can kill Mei Ruohua," was the mysterious veiled woman who had appeared at the Fang family's main pharmacy.
The woman, with just an invisible aura, suppressed them completely, leaving them utterly powerless to fight back.
Such formidable strength undoubtedly places him at least in the Divine Sense Realm.
At this moment, even against Zhou Shenjiang, whose strength had surged dramatically after burning his essence blood, Hongxiu was not at a disadvantage at all, firmly holding the upper hand. Now, with the addition of this mysterious veiled expert to their aid, Mei Ruohua and Yelü Hong couldn't help but feel a renewed hope for survival. They vaguely felt that perhaps they could truly escape this calamity today.
However, Mei Ruohua knew nothing about the identity of the veiled woman.
If she knew that the mysterious woman in front of her was Chen Tingxue, the sect leader of Wuji Sect, one of the three major sects in Tianyuan County, she would definitely be completely relieved and no longer worry about her and Yelü Hong's life and death.
At this moment, both Mei Ruohua and Yelü Hong were filled with a longing for life.
During their time teetering on the brink of life and death, they unknowingly developed a deep love for each other.
That wonderful feeling, like a gentle breeze in spring, softly caressed their hearts, leaving them intoxicated.
They had never truly tasted the flavor of love, and their hearts were filled with longing and anticipation for the future.
Especially after going through this life-or-death ordeal, they felt even stronger for each other.
Cao Shenjiang took a deep breath, suppressing the fear in his heart, and released his divine sense without reservation.
He tried to control the giant palm of true energy floating in the air with his divine sense and slam it down on Mei Ruohua. However, no matter how hard he tried, the giant palm of true energy was as if it were firmly bound by an invisible force and did not move at all.
"I am Cao Hai, one of the four great generals of the Demon Suppression Army. Who are you, sir, that you dare to interfere in the affairs of our Demon Suppression Army?"
Cao Shenjiang was immediately enraged and shouted angrily.
His tactic was exactly the same as Zhou Shenjiang's, both attempting to intimidate people by using the name of the Demon Suppression Army.
On the battlefield, they were fearless of death, relying on their powerful strength and indomitable will to roam freely and be invincible.
However, facing an opponent far stronger than themselves, they couldn't help but feel a sense of fear.
Just then, a crisp and rapid sound of horses' hooves approached from afar, like a sudden gust of wind and rain.
The Zhao family members, along with Mei Ruohua, Yelü Hong, and others, looked in the direction of the sound and saw four riders galloping towards them like lightning.
The two people in the center were Fang Han and Chen Tingxue, who was wearing a veil; on either side were Gongsun Yaoqin and Ye Qianqiu.
They arrived just in time.
Moreover, Chen Tingxue now deeply admires Fang Han because he solved the problem with her cultivation technique, the Wuji Jue. Therefore, when someone wanted to kill Mei Ruohua, she took action in advance.
Both she and Fang Han possessed incredibly powerful divine senses, capable of completely covering an area of several miles in radius. Therefore, they were basically aware of what had happened here earlier.
At this moment, Fang Han and Chen Tingxue both knew that Mei Ruohua was not a villain, but rather a person who valued loyalty and righteousness and was not easily swayed.
They had already made up their minds to save Mei Ruohua and Yelü Hong's lives.
Chen Tingxue leaped off her horse first, stepping on a gleaming flying sword, and flew like a shooting star to Mei Ruohua and Yelü Hong in an instant.
Her figure was light and graceful, like a fairy descending to earth, exuding an extraordinary and refined aura.
Her gaze was cold as she stared at General Cao, her tone filled with disdain and mockery: "Cao Hai, you are supposed to be one of the four great generals of the Demon Suppression Army, yet you are so despicable and shameless. In a one-on-one fight, General Zhou was no match for that beauty, so you tried to capture Mei Ruohua as a hostage to blackmail her. You even dared to use the name of the Demon Suppression Army to intimidate people, which makes me despise you. The dignified Demon Suppression Army has produced such trash!"
"Who exactly are you? Since you know we are the generals of the Demon Suppression Army, you should be aware of our power. Zhao Wu is the son-in-law of our Prince Li Wentian. We have come here to assist Zhao Wu in avenging his brother Zhao Jian and dealing with the Fang family. If you know what's good for you, you'd better leave now, otherwise, don't blame us for being impolite."
General Cao snorted coldly and said, trying to appear calm.
At this moment, his giant palm of true energy was still suspended in the air, like a huge shadow looming over his heart.
He felt uneasy, as if an invisible hand was gripping his heart tightly.
But he knew that he couldn't afford to lose face at this moment; if he showed any weakness, he would lose face in front of everyone.
"I am a member of the Fang family. Very well, since you are so arrogant, why don't we have a few rounds?"
Chen Tingxue said calmly.
If it weren't for helping Fang Han, given her current status and strength, experts at the Divine Sense Realm wouldn't be worth her personal intervention.
In her eyes, only the truly strong are worthy of fighting her.
Before Cao Shenjiang could say anything, Chen Tingxue moved her divine sense, and the giant palm of true energy that was suspended in the air changed direction and struck Cao Shenjiang.
General Cao's expression changed drastically, because this giant palm of true energy was even more powerful than when he attacked.
He instantly realized that the veiled woman before him was incredibly powerful, even invincible.
