Chapter 71: Making a Move

  "Little beauty, the more you struggle, the more energetic I become, hehe!" Xu Sheng's eyes gleamed with excitement as he approached Lei Rou, slowly leaning down to gaze at her like a hunter eyeing his prey.

  Her eyes, filled with mist, looked at Xu Sheng with a hint of despair. Her pretty face was covered with a thick layer of coldness, and her small cherry-like mouth pouted stubbornly, her body also trembling slightly.

  "Xu Sheng, brother, can't you really let me off?" After saying that, Li Rou forced out a pitiful expression.

  "Haha, don't talk nonsense, just enjoy it," Xu Sheng said, squatting down beside Li Rou, slowly raising his magical palm to touch her face.

  Seeing this, Li Rou finally stopped pretending, her eyes turned cold and she said in a chilly tone: "Even if I become a ghost, I won't let you off, you will definitely be killed by my clansmen."

  After finishing speaking, Li Rou's mouth slightly moved, and a hint of despair appeared in her eyes. She was actually prepared to bite her tongue and self-destruct her soul, rather than endure such humiliation even if it meant death.

  A burst of light shot out from Xu Sheng's fingertips, and with a soft "poof", it entered Lei Rou's body. Her delicate body shook violently, and she was unable to muster any strength, her internal energy sealed off. She could only stare blankly at the young man in front of her, whose eyes were shining brightly, as tears welled up in the corners of her own eyes.

  No longer hesitating, with rapid breathing in his mouth, he stretched out his devilish palm and stroked towards Li Rou's cheek.

  "Who?" Just as Xu Sheng was about to stretch out his magical hand, he suddenly frowned and stopped moving, as if he had sensed something. He stood up and shouted in a low voice.

  At the same time, a green light shot over from afar, and a giant python of several feet in length suddenly appeared before his eyes, with a white-clad youth standing on its body.

  Before Xu Sheng could speak, a gust of wind blew in from afar and transformed into a gentle breeze that appeared near the few people.

  "Leaf, Leaf Shidi? Quickly save..." Li Rou saw Ye Fei and was initially delighted, but the words only made it halfway before she fell silent.

  In his heart, Ye Fei must have been deeply resentful of himself. Moreover, he didn't believe that Ye Fei's early foundation-building cultivation could handle the two people in front of him. After all, Xu Sheng was a true late-stage foundation-builder, and Feng Yu Xiao was infamous for his formidable strength. Even with a mid-grade demonic beast at the nucleus stage, it would be impossible to be their match.

  "Oh, it's you little brat. Heh heh, this is indeed a narrow road for enemies to meet. However, I didn't expect that you would be a disciple of the Qian Ya Sect, and still just a young kid who can't even master low-level magic." Seeing Ye Fei appear, Feng Yuan Xiao immediately narrowed his eyes, his face flashing with cold light as he spoke. This old man was precisely the one Ye Fei had met at the Thousand Cliff Cliff when hunting for demonic beasts, where he encountered someone claiming to be Huang Que in the back. Although they went through a fierce battle, in the end, he escaped using Earth Concealment Technique."

  Xu Sheng furrowed his brow upon hearing a few people's conversation and asked in puzzlement: "Does Feng Dao friend know him?"

  "Not bad, there were some grudges before, but today, it should be settled, heh heh." Feng Yuan's mouth corner rose, and he said in a cold voice.

  Ye Fei glanced at the two of them, his eyes narrowing as he finally fixed his gaze on Xu Sheng, a cultivator in the later stages of foundation building. His strength was absolutely above that of Feng Yuan Xiao's. However, having exchanged blows with Feng Yuan Xiao last time, Ye Fei knew that this person's strength wasn't to be underestimated either.

  Originally, Ye Fei had no intention of taking action. After all, this demoness had framed him, and even the unfinished task was bestowed upon him by the demoness in front of him. Ye Fei had planned to watch a good show.

  However, Ye Fei did not expect that Xue Sheng would be so despicable and do such a dirty thing. If it were said that the two of them had severely disciplined Li Rou, Ye Fei wouldn't have minded taking action, but at this moment, Ye Fei really couldn't bear to watch anymore. Even if he was an outsider, Ye Fei absolutely wouldn't stand by and watch, let alone a fellow disciple.

  Of course, with the remaining fragments of the Law Treasure, Ye Fei has some confidence in dealing with the two people in front of him. Even if he can't defeat them, self-protection is absolutely no problem. Otherwise, Ye Fei would never have run out to die.

  Just as Ye Fei was lost in thought, Li Rou's words made him somewhat surprised.

  "Leaf Shidi, you'd better leave quickly, you're not their match. Otherwise, I'm afraid even you will fall here." After finishing speaking, Li Rou looked at Ye Fei with a sincere face, without the mischievous color of her usual self.

  "Even if we're not from the same school, I won't just stand by and watch you die. You don't have to thank me." Ye Fei's heart stirred with suspicion, wondering if this girl was playing some kind of trick again.

  "Haha, Xu Sheng, it seems that your little rival has appeared." Feng Yuanxiao coldly glanced at Ye Fei before speaking to Xu Sheng.

  Upon hearing this, Xu Sheng's face flashed with a stern expression, he licked his lips and coldly glanced at Ye Fei.

  "Ye Xuan, you bastard, what do you think you are? Rushing here to seek death, if you know what's good for you, leave quickly. Your foolish and reckless behavior will only make people look down on you even more." Suddenly, Li Rou's face turned cold, revealing a mocking expression as she spoke.

  Upon hearing this, Ye Fei's eyebrows furrowed, and a hint of anger flashed across his face. He had acted with good intentions, yet received such ridicule in return. However, after some thought, Ye Fei began to understand Lei Rou's meaning - she probably didn't want him to die here. What surprised Ye Fei was that he couldn't fathom the thoughts of this demoness, who had suddenly become so kind-hearted.

  "Hmph, don't waste your thoughts, today, none of you can leave." As soon as he finished speaking, a dark aura flashed across Xu Sheng's face, staring tightly at Ye Fei.

  "Xu Shengdao, my friend, why so much nonsense? Just kill him directly! I've had enough of your good deeds. " As soon as he finished speaking, Feng Yu Xiao slapped his waist with one hand, and with a whooshing sound, three flying swords shot out, appearing in mid-air above their heads.

  Upon seeing this, Ye Fei's mind stirred, and Xiao Qing's body surface glowed with a flash of light, instantly appearing near Feng Yuanxiao, her eyes fixed tightly on the three flying swords in mid-air.

  Bang!

  Ye Fei's aura burst forth, while Xu Sheng smiled faintly and said in a cold voice: "Mid-stage Foundation Establishment? Heh heh, I'll let you die quickly." As soon as he finished speaking, his shoulders shook, and the three-foot-long sword behind him transformed into a white glow. A blurry figure appeared in mid-air, surprisingly, it was a top-grade artifact.

  Yan Fei's mid-term foundation building cultivation was palpable, while Li Rou looked somewhat perplexed. She recalled that he had only recently advanced to the foundation building stage, yet his aura was so extraordinary. A hint of curiosity flashed in her eyes as she wondered what he was thinking.

  Whoosh, three streams of light shot out from mid-air, one flashing towards Qingyuan Snake with a slash. Immediately afterwards, the old man formed a hand seal with one hand and muttered incantations.

  With a loud crash, a white light column shot towards the three flying swords, Qingyuan Mang's body flashed with green scales, its tail slapped the ground, opened its huge mouth and pounced on Fengyuan Xiao.

  A buzzing sound, a white long sword gleamed in mid-air, bringing out a sonic boom, slashing towards Ye Fei's head. Xue Sheng suddenly narrowed his eyes, moved his body, and floated away to a distant place, leaving Li Rou's side.

  Almost at the same time, just as Xu Sheng was about to stand firm on the ground, sharp thorns suddenly grew out of the ground, but after Huang Xia flashed by, Ye Fei's figure flashed out in an instant, and he had actually used the Wind Shadow Escape Technique to dodge Xu Sheng's long sword.

  Just as he appeared beside Li Rou, Ye Fei snapped his fingers and a drop of fresh blood shot out, accurately entering Li Rou's mouth. Just as Li Rou was about to blame Ye Fei, she suddenly felt the toxin in her body rapidly dissipating. To her surprise, Ye Fei's blood had an antidote effect.

  Right after that, Ye Fei quickly cast a spell, and with a "poof" sound, it entered into Li Rou's body, dispelling the restrictive magic seal. Feeling the magic power in her body slowly recovering, Li Rou's eyes flashed with joy.

  "Let's work together with Qingyuan to deal with Fengyuan Xiao, hand this person over to me." As soon as he finished speaking, without waiting for Li Hui's response, he drew out a silver long sword and struck at Xu Sheng. (End of chapter)

  "Today is Yuanxiao Festival, and it's also the day when underground parties surface. Hehe, be careful not to crash into each other! Wishing everyone a happy Double Festival, and take control of your own life!"
