Chapter 254 She is very distressed
The energy net was already full of lightning and fire. Every time the whip fell, it would cause an energy collision like fireworks. But An Yan did not fight back, she just dodged.
This annoyed the old man in the north courtyard. He said, "Why are you hiding? Fight back!"
"I know you have always been dissatisfied with me and have long coveted West City, expanded your territory, annexed treasures, and established your dominant position." An Yan said these words lightly.
The old man in the north yard stopped for a moment, he looked at the old man outside and said, "This old guy really doesn't know how to judge people. He can't beat me and he refuses to keep his promise to give me West City. Instead, he hands it over to you, a little girl. Then let me see your real skills." After that, he swung the whip towards An Yan.
The long whip flashed a fiery red.
An Yan turned sideways and moved lightly to the other side. She took out an extremely thin long needle from her clothes. She quickly went behind the old man and was about to stab him when he discovered her.
The old man immediately jumped above An Yan and swung his whip at her with such force that cracks appeared on the ground. Even the energy network was shaken, making the people outside nervous.
The old man outside the network said angrily: "Old man from the North Courtyard, why don't you withdraw the border? Anyone who hurts my city lord should be killed!"
"An Yan, you must be extremely careful!" Li Rongsen was extremely anxious, and he only hated his limited ability and was completely unable to help An Yan.
"Today we will decide the winner. Only the winner can leave this world." The tone of the old man in the North Courtyard was extremely resolute, and it seemed that he would not change his mind.
This is a battle for his dignity, and he will not allow anyone to interfere.
"Since you are so determined, I will accompany you to the end, so that you can lose willingly." An Yan did not intend to give in anymore.
The two began to wrestle again, neither refusing to give in, and each move was fought with great ferocity.
"Is there really no way to break through the boundary?" Li Rongsen was extremely anxious. He felt that the old man was trying his best and was afraid that An Yan would suffer.
Yan Qingqiu said: "I have confidence in An Yan. I don't believe she can be defeated so easily."
The old man didn't say anything, but his expression showed worry.
An Yan had no intention of wasting time with the old man from the North Courtyard and had already planned to end it quickly.
She first gathered her energy on her right hand, and then saw purple energy swirling around her right hand. Then she stopped dodging the fire whip and directly caught the whip with her hand.
This startled Li Rongsen. He then saw the purple color on An Yan's right hand begin to spread to the fiery whip, melting the original red color into purple. This surprised the old man in the North Courtyard. He said, "You can actually control this fiery whip."
"What can't I do?" An Yan said as she pulled the whip over, causing the old man to pounce on her as well. She then turned around and wrapped the whip around the old man's body.
The old man was no pushover. He immediately dropped his whip and pulled out a small object from his sleeve. He swung it and it became two huge hammers. He said, "I'm not going to lose that easily."
An Yan ignored him. The red whip had turned into a purple whip. She swung it hard towards the net, and a big crack appeared in an instant. The energy in the net flew out.
It attacked Li Rongsen and the others like a hurricane, but fortunately the old man blocked it with a talisman. He heard him say again: "City Lord, seal him!"
The old man in the north courtyard had no time to cultivate his realm, so he just used the sledgehammer to hit An Yan, but missed, and fell heavily to the ground.
An Yan kicked the old man in the chest, then stood on the sledgehammer and watched him fall to the ground with cold eyes. He spat out a mouthful of blood and asked him, "Do you want to fight again?"
The old man in the north courtyard felt a pain in his chest, so much so that he couldn't speak. After a long while, he said, "You won. You can kill or scratch it as you please."
"I don't want your life, nor do I want your little daughter's life, and I have never thought of interfering in your North Courtyard's family affairs, but Beichen is going too far. She was the one who wanted to rob the people from West City first, so naturally you can't blame me for retaliating against her." An Yan stated her position coldly.
The old man in the north yard started coughing, then slowly stood up from the ground and said, "How is my little daughter?"
Yan Qingqiu interrupted and said, "It won't die, but it will take some time to recover."
At this time, Beichen's voice was heard from inside the house: "Dad! Father!"
The old man from the north yard immediately ran in to see her.
The old man walked up to An Yan and said, "City Lord, let me see your hand."
"There's nothing to see." An Yan clenched her fists and refused.
But Li Rongsen didn't care about that. He quickly grabbed An Yan's wrist and tried to pry her fist open, but he couldn't pry it open at all. He raised his eyes to look into her eyes.
An Yan felt a little embarrassed when he looked at her. She sighed softly and then slowly opened her fist.
Li Rongsen found that her palms were all burned and bloody. He couldn't help feeling sad, and even his eyes turned red. He immediately pulled her back to his yard, and Yan Qingqiu said, "I'll go make medicine right away, right away, it will be very quick." After saying that, he turned and left.
"Don't make such a fuss. It's just a minor injury. I can handle it. You don't have to worry." An Yan was dragged into the room by Li Rongsen, and she couldn't see his expression clearly. He just rushed forward without even looking back.
Finally, both of them walked into the house. Li Rongsen didn't look back. He was just looking for something on the shelf and wiped his face a few times. This made An Yan very confused. She hurried over to see him and asked, "What's wrong with you? The ointment is not on the shelf over there."
"Nothing, I'm just looking for medicine." Li Rongsen answered her while taking several bottles down from the shelf.
"Those are not for treating burns. The medicine box is on the table by the window." An Yan had to remind him.
Li Rongsen hurried over to get the medicine box. He was confused and at a loss.
An Yan felt something was amiss and immediately stood in front of him. She noticed something sparkling in his eyes and asked, "What's wrong with you? Are you crying?"
Li Rongsen quickly denied it and said, "How is that possible? I'm a grown man."
"It's nothing, just a small wound. It will be healed in a few days." Although An Yan said this, she felt inexplicably touched in her heart.
Li Rongsen came over with the medicine and motioned An Yan to sit down.
An Yan sat down obediently, then extended her right hand to him and said, "You usually seem like a man, but why are you scared when you see burns? Don't be so timid, it's just a small matter."
"Well, I fainted." Li Rongsen followed her words, so as to avoid being seen through by her that he was just worried about her. It would be embarrassing to say it to others. He was really worried that something had happened to her.
An Yan nodded, expressing her understanding, and said, "Don't be afraid, I will treat it for you in the future."
"As long as you don't get hurt again, you can cure my disease." Li Rongsen said seriously.
"Today is a special situation. I can't lose to him in a fight, otherwise where is my dignity?" This was the first time An Yan joked with Li Rongsen like this, as if just to make him happy.
Li Rongsen raised his eyes to look at An Yan. He really wanted to let her know his feelings. He thought that maybe today was a good opportunity to ask her what she thought of him.
But he hesitated again. What if she didn't have this idea? How would they get along in the future? It would definitely be awkward. They wouldn't even be able to be ordinary friends, and even the days like now would disappear.
He cherished it so much that he dared not take a step forward.
But he had to take a step forward. He became more and more greedy and wanted to be different from others.
