Chapter 710: Chapter 443 Domestic Violence

The mist that enveloped everything dissipated, revealing the ruins of Huizhou County below.

In the midst of the devastated city center, as the fog was blown away in an instant, Xu Yuan awakened from his sluggishness.

Lifting those pitch-black, ink-like eyes devoid of any whites, Xu Yuan looked at the white-clothed man walking slowly towards him, his eyes full of confusion.

He couldn’t understand why the fog that made him feel comfortable had vanished, nor why there was always food that disturbed his sleep.

However, as the white-clothed man stopped half a meter in front of him, Xu Yuan suddenly caught the scent of the other’s presence, licked his lips, and his hoarse voice stuttered out:

"You... are... really... good..."

"Bang!"

A muffled sound abruptly filled the air.

Looking up at the azure sky while lying on the ground, Xu Yuan’s mind filled with even more confusion.

Wasn’t he supposed to eat this food?

Why was he suddenly lying on the ground?

While he puzzled over this, an indifferent voice suddenly came from above him:

"Get up."

Xu Yuan looked up slightly, his gaze gradually shifting upward, and he saw the white-clothed man looking down at him.

For some reason,

upon seeing those eyes again, an inexplicable rage rose within him.

He wanted to tear this food apart, bit by bit, and then...

"Bang!"

Before his thoughts could stop, the white-clothed man struck his abdomen with the sheath of a sword:

"I told you to get up."

This strike made Xu Yuan feel a sensation known as pain for the first time.

And it hurt,

hurt so much that his body began to shiver uncontrollably.

Under the intense pain, the anger in Xu Yuan’s mind instantly surpassed its breaking point, and he raised his left hand at the other party, roaring hoarsely:

"You... you go to hell!"

As this voice of rage sounded, the atmosphere around them abruptly turned eerie, and countless resilient willow branches sprouted from the soil within a ten-foot radius, assaulting the white-clothed man!

Seeing this ability to create out of thin air, Feng Jiuxuan’s eyes also could not help but show a hint of surprise, but in the next moment, his sheath struck again.

This time,

he aimed for the left hand that was raised.

The moment the sheath touched Xu Yuan’s left wrist bone, an invisible sword Qi suddenly spread out, cutting those willow branches that had bound the mature beauty into tiny fragments.

Agonizing pain struck once more, prompting Xu Yuan to curl up and clutch his struck left hand, murmuring unconsciously:

"Pain... hiss... pain... so painful..."

But the other party showed no intention of giving him a moment to rest, the indifferent voice coming through once more:

"If you don’t get up, then keep lying there and taking the hits."

As he spoke, in the corner of Xu Yuan’s eye, the man in white again raised the sheathed longsword.

This time,

he vanished from the spot without any hesitation.

Watching the sudden disappearance of the figure, Feng Jiuxuan’s eyes carried a hint of confusion, but immediately that confusion turned into a relieved smile at the corner of his lips.

Changtian was actually still capable of using the Instant Transfer Sword Technique he had as a member of the human race; it seemed that he still retained some consciousness...

With these thoughts in mind, Feng Jiuxuan’s body moved casually to the side like a leisurely stroll, and he followed with a strike of the sword handle.

"Bang!"

The moment his figure appeared, Xu Yuan, who was about to launch a sneak attack, had no time to react before being struck on the temple by the other’s sword handle.

Time seemed to stand still,

and the strike left Xu Yuan’s eye devoid of whites momentarily dazed.

And with the tremendous force carried by the blow, his body was sent flying backwards dozens of yards in an instant, slamming heavily into the rubble of a ruin and stirring up a cloud of dust, then falling silent.

Seeing this scene, Feng Jiuxuan involuntarily glanced down at his hand that held the sword, hesitating within himself.

Had he... struck too hard?

However, Feng Jiuxuan soon let out a sigh of relief, as he sensed Changtian slowly rising from within that cloud of dust.

Xu Yuan, clutching his struck temple, stared at the delicious but terrifying white-clothed man opposite him with eyes full of madness and cruelty, not daring to approach him rashly again.

Seeing this, Feng Jiuxuan slowly walked towards Xu Yuan, and as he walked, he asked with a gentle laugh:

"Changtian, are you scared now?"

"...."

Watching the figure that continued to approach, Xu Yuan suddenly plunged his hand deeply into his own chest.

Instantly, bright-red blood sprayed out into the air.

Upon seeing this,

Feng Jiuxuan immediately halted his advance, his previously relaxed expression becoming unusually solemn.

Watching the man in white stop, Xu Yuan curved his lips into a hideous smile, the madness in his eyes growing stronger as he rasped:

"It seems like it’s you who’s afraid now."

The other’s indifferent expression always irritated him inexplicably, but he was quite satisfied with the look on the other’s face now.

And what’s more, he was going to make sure that expression stayed on the other’s face forever!

Filled with manic thoughts, Xu Yuan gradually pulled out the Willow Ghost Blade from within his chest.

As the Willow Ghost Blade was drawn out, the ghastly wound in Xu Yuan’s chest that he had torn open began to heal at a speed visible to the naked eye.

But what confused Xu Yuan was that after he completely removed the Willow Ghost Blade, the solemn look on the white-clothed man’s face disappeared.

Feng Jiuxuan, looking at the youngster who had pulled out that rather enigmatic wooden knife, felt slightly annoyed.

Suddenly stabbing his own chest,

he had thought that the youngster had become depraved enough to consider threatening him with self-harm.

Fortunately, it was a false alarm.

But looking at Changtian’s self-healing capabilities now...

Feng Jiuxuan’s eyes, once again donning a smile, gradually revealed a hint of cruelty as he spoke in a calm and soft voice:

"Changtian, there’s something I want to tell you."

Xu Yuan endured the confusion and suspicion in his heart, slowly raising the Willow Ghost Blade in his hand.

With this movement, countless black splatters of Sword Qi converged in the air, howling as they enveloped Feng Jiuxuan, their terrifying Energy Mechanism nearly shaking the space around them.

Looking at these familiar splatters of Sword Qi surrounding him, Feng Jiuxuan sighed softly:

"You really haven’t made any progress, have you? All the teachings I gave you in Di’an City didn’t seem to have gone into your head at all."

Xu Yuan couldn’t comprehend what this man in white meant, but that didn’t affect his desire to kill him, as the ghost blade descended:

"Go... die...."

Feng Jiuxuan did not employ sword techniques to counter the strike nor did he use his Life Origin to shatter the Sword Qi, he simply maintained his earlier pace and continued to walk towards Xu Yuan.

The sky full of Sword Qi fell, yet without exception, they were narrowly dodged by Feng Jiuxuan, and those terrifying ink stains from the Sword Qi nearly leveled the already devastated ground beneath by nearly thirty feet!

And with the last streak of Sword Qi falling, Feng Jiuxuan gently stepped on the ground and instantly covered a hundred yards, once again standing close in front of Xu Yuan.

He looked tenderly at the familiar face before him, his voice very soft:

"Changtian, you seem to have become quite resilient. In order to quickly strip you of your ability to resist..."

As the words fell,

Feng Jiuxuan gently raised his hand and pressed his fist against Xu Yuan’s chest, smiling slightly at him, "I’ll need to get a bit more serious."

The next moment,

he exerted a sudden burst of force.

"Voom—"

As the force poured in, Xu Yuan was once again sent flying backwards.

Only this time, he flew much farther and a little bit faster than the last.

The man flew ahead, his soul chasing after him.

In an instant, his figure flew backwards nearly ten miles, skimming over the ruin-strewn ground, crashing through the thick city walls of Huizhou County, and finally embedding into a depression outside the city before coming to a halt!

After the strike, Feng Jiuxuan did not immediately pursue but instead looked up at Lou Ji, who was hovering in mid-air, and calmly transmitted his voice:

"Lou Ji, Changtian might try to escape. You go ahead to Zidu Prefecture and get ready. There we have the largest medicinal and stone storage of the Prime Minister’s Mansion in Jingbei. I’ll bring Changtian to you after draining those strange energies from his body."

Upon hearing this, Lou Ji nodded slightly and reminded:

"Okay, just remember not to drain him completely, right now Changtian’s life is entirely reliant on those strange energies."

"Don’t worry, I know."

After speaking, Feng Jiuxuan slowly flew towards the direction where Xu Yuan had crashed into the hillside.

...

...

...

Xu Yuan didn’t know what had just happened; he only knew that after receiving that punch from the other party, he had ended up here, and now it seemed he was completely unable to move.

Instinctively glancing down at his body, he saw that his torso and limbs were already twisted out of shape.

"Creak— creak—"

Under his gaze, a grating sound of bones rubbing and flesh growing rang out softly, and his body was quickly being healed by an unknown force.

In just a matter of moments, he was restored to his former state.

But this didn’t bring him the slightest bit of joy; instead, his mind felt somewhat irritated.

All the food he had stored up to eat before had already been digested so much.

His gaze piercing through the void, he looked at the man in white who was flying towards him at a leisurely pace. For the first time, a sense of retreat kindled in Xu Yuan’s eyes.

This man in white was delectable, and consuming him would sate him temporarily, but alas, it seemed he couldn’t eat his adversary right now.

If the fight continued, he might become very, very hungry.

Rational thoughts wandered in his mind, but eventually, the primal hunger took over, and Xu Yuan decided to give it another try. If that failed, he would flee.

Thinking this,

Xu Yuan’s hand, gripping the Willow Ghost Blade, tightened slightly as the Energy Mechanism around him surged violently. He swung out his strongest sword strike at the white-clothed man flying towards him, the same strike that had driven away that unpalatable orb woman.

In an instant, as if eternal,

the invisible sword cut through everything in its path, trees toppled, towering walls were neatly sliced and fell away, reaching right in front of the man in white.

But just as Xu Yuan thought he had succeeded.

"Shing—"

The sound of a sword blade being unsheathed echoed across the entire sky.

Feng Jiuxuan’s flight halted abruptly as he drew his Qingyuan Sword halfway to defend himself.

His strongest invisible Sword Qi was directly caught by the exposed half of the sword blade, and it only caused a ripple to flash across it....

Seeing this scene, the only thought left in Xu Yuan’s chaotic mind was:

Run.

Run fast.

He couldn’t defeat this man in white.

The thought had barely flickered when his figure disappeared from the spot, appearing a hundred yards away in an instant, using blink-and-you-miss-it shifts as if Origin Qi cost him nothing.

In a flash, he had fled for more than ten miles.

And this was just the start of his escape, sprinting and blinking, he didn’t know how far he had fled until the intensifying hunger from within urged him to gradually slow down and stop at the top of a hill.

Standing atop the hill,

Xu Yuan turned his gaze back towards Huizhou County, his dark eyes filled with a tinge of dark, angry resolve.

Once he was fully satiated, he would find that man in white again and tear his body to pieces, bit by bit!

...

...

...

One day later, in a secret chamber in Zidu Prefecture,

Feng Jiuxuan, carrying Xu Yuan like a dead dog, faced the worried Lou Ji and asked softly:

"In this situation... there’s still hope for him, right?"
