Chapter 308: Chapter 274: [Act capriciously and bully the weak]

"Sheng’er!"

There was no answer, only the roar of Murong Gu in response. With a sudden stop, he leaped up and out, his body soaring into the air as he caught Murong Sheng in his arms.

"Puh-chi... Puh-chi..."

Falling into the embrace of Murong Gu, Murong Sheng’s body trembled, coughing up two mouthfuls of blood one after another, then his complexion turned as pale as paper, his breathing rapid, his gaze scattered, as if he could die at any moment.

Seeing this, Murong Gu shivered all over with fear and immediately used his Spiritual Sense. To his dread, he discovered that Murong Sheng’s consciousness had completely shattered, and his Dantian was utterly destroyed along with ruptured internal organs; the young man was on the brink of death.

"Sheng’er!!"

This discovery tore through Murong Gu’s heart like a knife. With bloodshot eyes, he let out a bellow, hurriedly placing his hand on Murong Sheng’s Dantian. Power surged from the palm of his hand into Murong Sheng’s body and then divided into several streams, following his meridians to his organs to protect them, all the while sealing the wound at the Dantian.

Under Murong Gu’s emergency treatment, Murong Sheng’s bleeding Dantian stopped, and his previously rapid breath gradually calmed down.

However—

Because his consciousness had been completely shattered, he became a living dead, his eyes void of any luster, staring blankly at the sky.

"Zhang Qian, come over and take care of Sheng’er!"

As a Half-step Gang Qi realm master, Murong Gu saw that his son’s consciousness had completely shattered, and would now be a living dead. In agony, he bellowed at Zhang Qian not far away.

"Yes... Yes, Great Elder!"

At the sound, Zhang Qian snapped out of his daze and hurriedly ran to Murong Gu’s side, crouching down on the ground.

With trembling hands, Murong Gu handed Murong Sheng over to Zhang Qian, then abruptly stood up, his eyes bloodshot as he stared at Ye Fan, "You little beast, return my son’s life to me!"

"Smack—"

As soon as he finished speaking, a terrifying intent to kill burst forth from Murong Gu, his Power surging crazily, directly causing the concrete ground beneath his feet to explode, debris flying everywhere.

Immediately, the splinters of concrete that had been kicked up were swept into the air by a gust, swirling around Murong Gu, obscuring his expression from view, leaving only that terrifying, palpable intent to kill!

"Murong... Murong Gu, what are you doing??"

The chilling words of Murong Gu echoed in his ears, and feeling the terrible intent to kill rising from Murong Gu, Zhao Meng’s expression changed, he yelled at Murong Gu.

"Get lost!"

Murong Gu, his gaze sharp as a knife, locked onto Ye Fan, without even turning his head as he growled back, his tone as cold as a Siberian chill.

"Murong... Murong Gu, according to the rules set by the Yanhuang Organization, once martial artists have signed a life-and-death agreement, their fate is in their own hands, and no one else is allowed to intervene!"

Sensing Murong Gu’s ever-increasing intent to kill, Zhao Meng felt a sense of horror but still mustered the courage to approach Murong Gu, "Just now, when you intervened to save your son, that already broke the rules of the duel. If you lay hands on Ye Fan now, it would be a complete violation of the Yanhuang Organization’s rules, and you will face severe punishment from them!"

"Smack—"

Zhao Meng’s answer was a slap in the face!

Under the sunlight, Murong Gu’s right hand suddenly swung, a stream of air howled as it struck Zhao Meng’s face, directly sending him flying!

"Sss~"

Seeing this scene, Kang Lin and the other two trembled in fear, their lips twitching as they involuntarily inhaled a cool breath.

Meanwhile, Ye Fan’s brows instantly knitted together, his face becoming grave!

He had originally thought that Zhao Meng’s presence would have a deterring effect on Murong Gu, but he didn’t expect that not only did Murong Gu not take the rules of the Yanhuang Organization seriously, to the point of personally wanting to deal with him, but he had also attacked Zhao Meng—and even though he couldn’t see clearly how Murong Gu had made his move just now, he did see that it was a burst of air that had sent Zhao Meng flying!

Striking from afar!

Once a martial artist becomes a Gang Qi realm master, the inner strength within their bodies transforms into Gang Qi. With a swing of their hand, Gang Qi surges and creates a sonic boom, injuring people with air pressure.

Although Murong Gu had not yet become a Gang Qi realm master, he was one step into this realm, a half-step Gang Qi realm master.

Just now, he made a slap from where he stood, Gang Qi shot out, creating a sonic boom right in front of Zhao Meng, the explosive flow of air directly sending Zhao Meng flying.

"Remember this, the rules of the Yanhuang Organization are like nothing to a Gang Qi realm martial artist, so, don’t talk to me about rules again!"

After sending Zhao Meng flying with a single slap, Murong Gu paused in his steps, his tone ice-cold as he said, "Keep talking nonsense, and I’ll kill you too!"

Clack!

Facing Murong Gu’s blatant threat, a terrified Zhao Meng, with a collapsed face and blood streaming down, had his heart twitching. Afterwards, although filled with rage, he didn’t dare utter another word under the threat of death!

Because he was very clear that as a half-step Gang Qi realm master, Murong Gu was simply not someone he could contend with!

Even, had Murong Gu directly struck him with the Gang Qi a moment ago, he would already be dead!

Even Zhao Meng was tight-lipped, not daring to make a sound, let alone Kang Lin and the other two?

"Snap! Snap!"

Seeing that Zhao Meng did not dare to make a sound, Murong Gu resumed his steps, striding towards Ye Fan. With every step, an explosive sound like firecrackers going off could be heard, and the concrete pavement under his feet cracked and shattered, as if thousands of troops were galloping, the momentum fearsomely powerful.

Witnessing this scene and feeling Murong Gu’s gaze locked onto him, Ye Fan felt as if he were enveloped by the aura of death, a sensation that no matter where he fled to the ends of the earth, he could not escape Murong Gu’s fatal strike!

This made his expression unprecedentedly solemn, his heart leaping to his throat, his body as if bound, unable to move, helplessly watching Murong Gu approaching.

"You... didn’t you say you wouldn’t intervene in this competition?"

Just then, from a distance, Su Liuli, forcing back her fear, ran towards Ye Fan while angrily shouting.

"Exactly, do you still have any shame?" Su Jindi followed behind Su Liuli, enraged and roaring nonstop.

Although Su Yuxin and Situ Ruoshui did not speak, they too were with Su Liuli and Su Jindi.

"If you wish to join him in death, I don’t mind fulfilling your desires!"

Murong Gu’s gaze swept over the four like a sharp blade, his icy words erupting like thunder in their ears, causing Su Liuli to fall straight to the ground.

And Su Yuxin, Situ Ruoshui, and Su Jindi also felt their eardrums vibrating, their heads buzzing, legs going weak, instinctively halting their steps.

"Don’t come any closer!"

Sensing this, Ye Fan shouted in a grave tone.

There was no answer.

Suppressing her fear, Su Yuxin continued walking toward Ye Fan.

Situ Ruoshui followed closely behind.

Su Jindi clenched his teeth, unwilling to be left behind.

Su Liuli’s face turned pale as she struggled to get up from the ground and followed behind the three of them.

Huh?

Seeing this scene, Murong Gu paused mid-step, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.

It seemed that he had not expected Su Yuxin and the others to truly be willing to share life and death with Ye Fan!

"Good, good, good, since you all want to die with him, I will grant your wish!" After the surprise, the murderous intent on Murong Gu remained unchanged.

Although he knew that killing commoners was a taboo for martial artists and would inevitably lead to retaliation from the Yanhuang Organization, in his rage, he had set his heart on avenging his son!

Moreover, in his eyes, if he could make a breakthrough into the Gang Qi Realm after the fact, even if the Yanhuang Organization pursued the matter, it was not certain that they would openly confront the Wudang Sect!

"Step back, leave here immediately!"

Seeing that Murong Gu had completely intended to kill, Ye Fan turned around with bloodshot eyes and yelled at Su Yuxin and the others who were approaching, "Did you hear me??"

"We can’t abandon you!"

"Big brother, we won’t leave!"

"Brother Ye, let’s fight him together!"

Su Yuxin, Situ Ruoshui, and Su Jindi each spoke in turn, their expressions firm and tenacious.

Su Liuli did not speak.

She just quietly looked at Ye Fan, following behind Su Yuxin and the others with great effort and difficulty, step by step towards Ye Fan.

With her actions, she told Ye Fan that she wanted to share life and death with him!

"You... you..."

Witnessing this scene, Ye Fan felt an unprecedented surge of emotion in his heart. He opened his mouth to say something, but it was as if his throat was choked by something, rendering him unable to utter the words that followed.

Amidst his moved feelings, he suddenly realized that his fear and anger toward Murong Gu had completely dissipated.

"Whoo~"

He took a deep breath, turned around, and looked straight at Murong Gu who was approaching, his mind fully clear and without fear, he met Murong Gu’s murderous gaze and said word by word, "The rules of the Yanhuang Organization don’t really bind Gang Qi Realm masters, but don’t forget, you’re only at the Half-step Gang Qi Realm!"

"Haha..."

Murong Gu scoffed disdainfully and then, like a specter, appeared in front of Ye Fan, grabbed the collar of Ye Fan’s shirt, and lifted him into the air, ominously asking, "Tell me, how do you want to die?"

"Swoosh—"

There was no answer, a sudden sound of slicing air resounded!

The next moment.

Under the stunned gaze of Zhao Meng and the others, the Taiyin Xuan Sword that had previously fallen from Murong Sheng’s hand suddenly flew up, turned into a streak of white light, and rapidly slashed towards Zhang Qian, the head of Dong hai Wudang Martial Arts Hall.

Zhang Qian, just an outer disciple of the Wudang Sect with only the strength of the Peak-stage of Postnatal, how could he possibly withstand Ye Fan’s sudden attack?

"Zzz~"

Before Zhang Qian could dodge, the sharp Taiyin Xuan Sword cut through his neck as easily as slicing through tofu.

"Spurt—"

Blood splattered everywhere, and a head flew into the air!

"You’re seeking death!"

Sensing this, Murong Gu roared in rage, raised his right hand, turned it into a palm, and attempted to slap Ye Fan dead.

"Are you sure you want to do this?"

Facing impending death, there was not a trace of fear on Ye Fan’s face; instead, he asked with a smile.

Huh?

Murong Gu looked back in astonishment, only to see the Taiyin Xuan Sword stained with Zhang Qian’s blood, hanging in the air, its tip pointed at Murong Sheng’s throat, nicking the skin and causing blood to ooze out continuously.

"You..."

This discovery made Murong Gu’s face change drastically!

"I assure you I can send your son to accompany me in death, do you believe that?"

Noticing the change in Murong Gu’s expression, Ye Fan breathed a sigh of relief internally, spoke again, and the smile on his face grew even brighter.

Believe me?

Murong Gu’s hand froze mid-air!
