C25 Old fen's words

Murong Zhe looked at the two of them indifferently, his expression as haughty as ever. He walked to Qin Xuan's side, looking down at the two of them from above.

"Since you are unwilling to compromise, then there are only two choices in front of you: Hand over all the Purple Origin Fruits and I will spare your life. Otherwise, don't blame me for being cruel." Murong Zhe looked at Qin Xuan with a sinister smile, as if he was giving him the final choice.

"Don't give me the chance, or I'll definitely kill you!" Qin Xuan's eyes stared straight at Murong Zhe, they gleamed with cold light, revealing a chilly killing intent.

"Don't go too far, this is within the Tianyu Country!" Duan Ruoxi also shouted angrily, this Murong Zhe was simply too arrogant, he did not even put him, a princess, in his eyes at all.

"Only the powerless and the weak will feel that this is too much. As for revenge, do you still have a chance?" Murong Zhe mocked as he laughed, and then struck out with his palm. Qin Xuan's body was once again blasted away, leaving behind an expression on his face as he watched the scene unfold.

Qin Xuan's body heavily fell to the ground. He felt as if all the bones in his body had been broken, and his internal organs had been shaken to the point of being displaced. The circulation of the Genuine Essence in his body was as heavy as lead.

At this moment, he was as weak as a thin layer of paper, breaking upon contact. Any one of them could easily crush him to death.

"Qin Xuan!" said in a trembling voice, her beautiful eyes filled with tears. She continuously shook her head, but she was powerless as Murong Zhe held onto her tightly, unable to break free from his control. This pain was like a nightmare, suffocating.

"As expected of the number one beauty of the Tianyu Country, as expected of a beauty that can topple nations. Such beauty is unparalleled in my Daiyuan Kingdom, why don't you follow me from now on? This way, the relationship between the Daiyuan Kingdom and the Tianyu Country will be even closer, at least you won't be attacked by us again."

Murong Zhe smiled obscenely at Duan Ruoxi. At the moment, he was like a greedy wolf, he no longer had any of the previous demeanor he had, and what he revealed was a mottled depravity, making others despise him.

"Bastard!" Duan Ruoxi's face turned extremely cold, she clenched her jade hands tightly, the Genuine Essence erupted with a burst of purifying power and rushed towards Murong Zhe, wanting to break free from his restraints.

However, Murong Zhe's strength far surpassed hers. Using the Myriad Manifestation Art, he directly suppressed space with his terrifying strength, suppressing everything. The huge hand grabbed onto Duan Ruoxi once again, and spat out an ice-cold voice: "Don't give me face, I have seen a lot of people like you, I will give you one last chance!"

"Tsk tsk, so beautiful!" Murong Zhe's thick hands lifted up Duan Ruoxi's delicate chin, looking at her beautiful face, the smile on her face became even wider.

Seeing Duan Ruoxi's delicate and weak figure being humiliated like this by Murong Zhe, the anger in Qin Xuan's heart burned as he wished that he could immediately kill. However, he himself was unable to protect himself, much less save Duan Ruoxi.

"Just what is the use of me not being able to protect a single woman? What is the use of having origin soul at the fifth level!" Qin Xuan roared furiously in his heart as his fingertip deeply embedded into his flesh, yet he did not feel the slightest amount of pain, he only felt an intense sense of shame.

He was incapable, unable to protect the princess, thus violating his original promise.

"Since you are not opposed to it, then I'll accept it. Let's settle this matter here. I believe that brat will find it very interesting to see his beloved girl being taken over by me with his own eyes!" Murong Zhe laughed obscenely, and then used his big hands to hug Duan Ruoxi.

"Let her go!"

A loud and clear shout came out, causing Murong Zhe's expression to turn serious, his hands suddenly stopped moving, and his gaze turned to the person who spoke.

When Qin Xuan heard this voice, his expression immediately shook, but his face revealed a look of joy, with a hint of gratitude, he looked at the speaker, only to realize that it was Wind Chasing Country, Lin Yuyang.

"Brother Murong is still one of the top young generation of the Murong Family, why did he do such a thing? It is truly dishonorable." Lin Yuyang said indifferently as he walked over.

Murong Zhe squinted his eyes. He did not know what Lin Yuyang meant by this. When they came to the secret realm to cultivate, they had their own lives.

"What, what do you think of this Brother Lin?" Murong Zhe asked tentatively. Lin Yuyang was very strong, so it was natural that she was wary of him.

Lin Yuyang waved his hand and said: "A wise man cannot be considered to be superior, but you had better let Miss Duan go. This is too unfair to her."

"Let her go?" Murong Zhe's expression turned cold, she turned and looked at Duan Ruoxi, her gaze flickered a few times, then turned to Lin Yuyang and laughed softly, "Brother Lin, are you not joking with me, how can I just let this girl go so easily? This matter has nothing to do with Brother Lin, I am willing to give up half of the Purple Yuan fruit, I hope Brother Lin can let this matter go."

"Hur hur." Lin Yuyang chuckled as he stared at Murong Zhe, and muttered: "Looks like you don't put my words to heart, and want me to take action?"

With that said, Murong Zhe's body shook violently. He could immediately feel a powerful storm power around his body, wave after wave of cold Qi invading into his four limbs and bones, causing him to shiver.

Lin Yuyang raised his hand slightly, causing the storm power to become even stronger, with him at the center. Strong gales flew, and from time to time, he slashed out Whirlwind Blades, causing the sky to change color, and the Spirit Qi in the area to become chaotic.

Murong Zhe felt as if he was trapped in a storm, his expression was filled with terror as one extremely sharp blade after another swept past his body, yet they did not touch his body. Even so, he still felt a strong sense of danger, this attack was enough to threaten his life.

"I promise you!" A voice suddenly rang out from within the storm. It was somewhat hurried, and even somewhat fearful.

Between a strong enemy and a beautiful woman, Murong Zhe could naturally make the right judgement.

Hearing this, Duan Ruoxi's heart relaxed, the originally tensed up body immediately became soft, and the Genuine Essence that was condensed in her body also slowly dissipated. If Murong Zhe really dared to do that, she would rather die than let him succeed.

The corner of Lin Yuyang's mouth raised into a slight smile. With a thought, the terrifying storm that filled the sky disappeared in an instant. Nothing in his surroundings changed at all, as if the storm had never come before.

However, Murong Zhe, who had personally experienced it, found it difficult to forget. His fear of Lin Yuyang increased a little, and at the same time, he felt a strong hatred towards him.

However, Lin Yuyang did not care about what Murong Zhe thought, he casually swept a glance over him, and said indifferently: Could it be that Brother Murong has something else to do here, do you need my help?

Hearing that, Murong Zhe's face became even more ugly, he looked deeply at Duan Ruoxi, then flicked his sleeves and left. It was obvious that he was extremely furious, after all, he had almost succeeded, but he did not expect Lin Yuyang to suddenly intervene and mess everything up.

"Thank you Fourth Prince for your help!" Duan Ruoxi thanked Lin Yuyang, and then immediately ran to Qin Xuan's side, only to discover that he was already on his last breath.

Before he even finished his sentence, Duan Ruoxi gently grasped Qin Xuan's palm. The seven petals of a flower blossomed behind him, emitting a strange light, it was as hazy as a mist, but it was even more dazzling and divine than before. The light enveloped Qin Xuan's entire body, and a tide of pure energy began to flood into Qin Xuan's body.

Lin Yuyang looked at Duan Ruoxi's nervous expression and the subtle emotions hidden deep within her eyes. He couldn't help but give her a deep glance, and then stood quietly at the side, protecting the two of them.

Originally, Qin Xuan had already reached an extremely dangerous state. Fortunately, Duan Ruoxi had made it in time to transfer and purify the Genuine Essence, which allowed him to gradually purify the purple poison in his body. His corroded flesh had regrown, and the speed at which the Genuine Essence was flowing had also gradually recovered.

After a while, Qin Xuan slowly opened his eyes and realized that the person in front of him was still that familiar face. His heart immediately relaxed, and only after seeing Lin Yuyang who was standing to the side did he guess what had happened, and immediately shot him a grateful look.

After that, Qin Xuan closed his eyes again and his consciousness entered his mind. He asked with a doubtful tone: "Fen Old Master, if Lin Yuyang did not make a move just now, would you have just ignored her?"

However, after several breaths of silence, there was a deathly silence without any response.

"Since you are so cold, I don't need your help anymore. If you encounter danger in the future, you don't have to help me!" Qin Xuan seemed to understand the meaning behind this tranquility, and his tone became even colder.

Qin Xuan's words were extremely resolute, his tone revealed a trace of unquestionable, and even a bit unreasonable.

It was because he was very disappointed that Fen Old Master, whom he had always respected, was so cold and indifferent this time around, not caring about the lives of others.

The reason why I didn't attack was because I had already sensed that person's presence and knew that he would definitely come to save me. Besides, my power is limited and I don't have much left. Fen Old Master finally replied, but there was a trace of weariness in his tone.

"You are destined to have rough times in your life, and there will be more hardships in the future. I can't accompany you forever, so I want to help you quickly grow. Only by doing so can you have the ability to protect those you care about as much as possible."

Fen Old Master's words were like the chimes of a morning bell that struck Qin Xuan's heart, causing his originally restless and angry heart to suddenly calm down, as he quietly listened.

There are many things that are not what we think. Humans are destined to have many regrets in their lives, and the only thing we can do is to try our best to avoid them. Sometimes, strength does not solve all of our problems.

After saying that, the Fen Old Master's voice disappeared again, leaving only Qin Xuan's consciousness floating in his mind.
