Chapter 471: Chapter 471 Miss Lu, Please Return! (5th Update)
Jia Yingfa never expected that he would die at the hands of a little girl, letting out an unwilling roar of rage, and reached out to grab Bian Tian.
Bian Tian took a step back in fear.
Just at that moment, Jia Yingfa’s upper body exploded.
As blood and flesh flew, Zhou Daniu withdrew his fist.
Zou Yi said helplessly from the side, “I just said not to use so much strength, and now look what happened, you’ve splattered blood all over the little girl.”
Hearing this, Zhou Daniu apologized to Bian Tian with a smile.
Bian Tian couldn’t help but laugh and cry, but knowing that Zhou Daniu had saved her, she gratefully said, “Thank you, Big Brother Daniu!”
Zhou Daniu’s face instantly blushed, and he grunted in response, turning around and quickly walking away.
The battle, from start to finish, lasted only the time it took an incense stick to burn.
Including the Hall Master of the Temple of the Fire God, all were now dead.
Xue An stood in front of the City Lord’s Mansion, looking at the members of Fire Phoenix, blood-stained but with high morale, and couldn’t help but nod in satisfaction.
The concentration of Spiritual Energy within this Kunlun secret realm was much denser than on Earth.
After the members of Fire Phoenix entered, they thrived like fish in water, with many of them making progress in their Cultivation Levels within just these few days.
Of course, this didn’t mean that the people of Fire Phoenix were all geniuses.
Rather, their stages of Cultivation had long been ready to advance; it was only due to the scarcity of Spiritual Energy on Earth that they needed to slowly accumulate enough energy to achieve a true breakthrough.
And the dense Spiritual Energy of this Kunlun secret realm saved them a lot of time.
So, cultivating for one day here was better than cultivating for ten days on Earth.
Therefore, the members of Fire Phoenix were almost crazy with enthusiasm, practicing day and night with fervor.
This enabled them to easily take care of the experts from the Jizhou City Lord’s Mansion in this battle.
Bian Qingmu felt as if her eyes were opened to a new world.
The tactical prowess displayed by Cheng Hao and the others had greatly shocked her.
Before today, she did not know that battles could be fought this way.
“Instructor, all members of Fire Phoenix have annihilated thirty-eight of the enemy, with no casualties!Please instruct!” Cheng Hao stood tall and proud as he spoke.
Xue An smiled slightly, “Very good, but this is just a starter; the real whetstone is still to come. Do you… have confidence?”
“Yes!”
“Then good! Let’s go!”
This time, Xue An set his sights on Kunlun City.
Meanwhile, inside the Temple of the Fire God in Kunlun City.
The Hall Master of the Temple of the Fire God suddenly awoke from his slumber.
He then slowly sat up.
“Someone come!”
“Hall Master!” someone answered in the darkness.
“Send the command, strengthen the guard…, he has returned!”
“Yes!”
After the person left, the Hall Master of the Temple of the Fire God, Lai Shuo, looked imperious like an emperor, and his eyes flickered.
Just as Xue An had predicted.
He could sense everything that happened through a sliver of Divine Sense that was embedded in the sea of consciousness of the Hall Master and others.
So he also heard Xue An’s words.
“To discern the intricacies of Du Bing and the others at a glance, you really do have some skill!” Lai Shuo spoke softly to himself, and the eyes of the imposing god statue illuminated by the fire light seemed to flicker with flames as well.
This was an extremely luxurious room.
Cloud gauze, used to make sumptuous clothes, hung throughout the room as decoration.
A fine plume of blue smoke wafted from the incense burner made of Five Elements Fine Gold.
A delicate fragrance filled the room, making one forget the mundane world.
A beautiful woman with a radiant face walked in with a curtsy, “Mistress of the Profound Wind Tower, the Temple of the Fire God is currently deploying troops, seemingly reinforcing their vigilance!”
After a moment of silence.
Laughter from a woman could be heard from behind the gauze-covered bed.
“Hehe! Lai Shuo this guy never acts without certainty, so that means Xue An, the one who destroyed the Immortal Palace, has returned, right?”
No one dared to answer.
Because the last woman who casually spoke out of turn, favored and arrogant, now lay rotten in her grave.
A leg sculpted as if from jade slowly stretched out, resting on the warm stool in front of the bed, and then the silhouette of a woman appeared behind the gauze.
Although her face could not be seen clearly, just the reflection was enough to make one’s blood surge with excitement.
However, these women buried their heads even lower, no one daring to look up casually.
“Pass down the order, carefully gather information, I want to know when exactly Xue An enters Kunlun! And all his detailed background!”
“Yes!”
The calm waters of Kunlun City were once again stirring with undercurrents.
But all of this was unknown to Zhu Ruyan.
She almost never left her residence now, spending all day practicing the Cultivation Technique Xue An had taught her.
It wasn’t that she didn’t want to go out.
But she simply couldn’t.
As someone who once stayed by Xue An’s side, she was now under close surveillance by both the Temple of the Fire God and Profound Wind Tower, in other words, she was under house arrest.
The sound of knocking on the window woke Zhu Ruyan from her deep meditation. Looking up, she saw it was her senior sister, Lu Xunxue, hesitating for a moment before she couldn’t help but open the door.
“Senior Sister!”
Lu Xunxue looked embarrassed. She stepped aside, revealing Zhu Lei and others behind her.
Upon seeing these people, Zhu Ruyan’s expression turned sour.
“Senior Sister, you…”
Zhu Lei smiled faintly, “Ruyan junior sister, don’t blame Xunxue, I asked her to do this!”
“What exactly do you want?” Zhu Ruyan asked in a deep voice.
“Ruyan junior sister, you don’t even call me senior brother anymore?”
Zhu Ruyan sneered, “You don’t deserve it!”
Zhu Lei sighed slightly, “Alright then, I’m not here for any other reason. Just hand over the Cultivation Method Xue An taught you, and I’ll turn around and leave. How about that?”
“Don’t even think about it!”
“Ruyan junior sister, I’ll call you junior sister one last time. Don’t you understand the principle that a man is not guilty for carrying a jade, but he invites trouble if he does? Now that the Temple of the Fire God and Profound Wind Tower have taken control of Kunlun, it’s impossible for him to return!”
“I assure you, as long as you teach the Cultivation Method to me, I can guarantee your safety!”
“How can you guarantee my safety? By making me bow and scrape to the people of the Temple of the Fire God or Profound Wind Tower? Sorry, I can’t do that!” Zhu Ruyan said coldly.
Zhu Lei’s expression also turned ugly, “Ruyan, don’t be so obstinate! He can’t possibly return, and even if he does, he’s doomed to die! If you continue to be stubborn, it won’t be long before you die with no place to bury your body.”
“Hehe, you are scared, aren’t you! What, you want to use the Cultivation Technique I know to come up with a strategy to deal with him? Let me tell you, Zhu Lei, it’s impossible. Even if I die! I will not betray him!” Zhu Ruyan said with a steely face.
Zhu Lei’s demeanor finally turned cold, and he sneered, “Well then, since you are so deluded, I have nothing more to say! But I must tell you, as a woman, there are many things worse than death waiting for you!”
With that, Zhu Lei turned and left.
Zhu Ruyan’s hands tightly gripped the door frame, her fingers whitening from the force.
Lu Xunxue sighed deeply, “Junior sister…!”
“Don’t say anymore, Miss Lu, please go back!” Zhu Ruyan said, then turned and shut the door.
Lu Xunxue stood blankly in front of the door.
Miss Lu…
This address made her smile bitterly to herself.
