Chapter 723: Chapter 723: You Taught Me!

Seeing Zhou Yu wounded, the young man inside the pavilion revealed a mocking expression.

"Elder, I didn’t expect even you could be mistaken," he said.

"You also said he wasn’t a short-lived one, but now it seems this kid is definitely going to die," another added.

The elder looked at Zhou Yu, shook his head silently, and his eyes flickered with a peculiar light.

Meanwhile, faced with the mockery from the mountain guard, Zhou Yu’s complexion was pale and his eyes dim. Clearly, he was done for.

He Xu was frantic.

"Zhou Yu!!"

Her face filled with urgency, she was about to rush over, but Zhou Yu raised his hand and pushed her far away with a gentle force.

However, this palm made Zhou Yu’s injuries even worse.

Pu!

Zhou Yu spat out a mouthful of blood, his expression listless.

"Kid, trying to save your woman even in the face of death, you are quite the man!"

"But it’s no use, you’re still going to die!"

the mountain guard sneered.

At this moment, Vice President Zhou said with a venomous face:

"Mountain guard, don’t kill him, just cripple him—that’s enough, let him live."

Hearing this, the mountain guard nodded and then turned to look at Zhou Yu.

"Boy, did you hear that?"

"Make it quick and disable your cultivation yourself," he said.

Zhou Yu’s face darkened, and he roared,

"In your dreams!"

The mountain guard, holding a shortsword, strode toward Zhou Yu.

"Hmm, some people won’t weep until they see the coffin."

Upon reaching Zhou Yu, the mountain guard, with a sneer on his face, thrust his sword toward Zhou Yu’s chest.

Zhou Yu, seemingly having entirely lost the strength to resist, couldn’t even dodge the sword.

Clang!

The sword stabbed into Zhou Yu’s chest.

However, it produced a sound like the clash of metal.

For a moment, the mountain guard was utterly stunned.

But just then, Zhou Yu, who had appeared to be weak and powerless, suddenly burst forth a gleam in his eyes.

From within him, a terrifying force of a punch erupted, hitting the mountain guard in the abdomen.

At such a close distance, the mountain guard had no space to dodge.

In an instant, ten dragon-shaped Qi Forces surged into the mountain guard’s abdomen.

"Ah—"

The mountain guard screamed, vomiting blood as he was sent flying backward.

At that moment, Zhou Yu suddenly stood up. The bloody image of the Golden Cauldron Phantom flickered on his body. Enhanced by the steps of the mountain and river, Zhou Yu appeared like a specter at the mountain guard’s side, delivering another thunderous punch.

After taking the heavy blow to his abdomen, although the mountain guard was injured and vomited blood, he also put up a defense.

However, he hadn’t expected Zhou Yu to strike back so quickly.

Wasn’t he poisoned?

How could he still manage to perform such high-intensity offensive maneuvers consecutively?

In a flash of lightning, without time to think, the mountain guard instinctively raised his arm to block.

Bang!

The punch smashed fiercely onto his arm.

Crack!

A sound of a bone breaking came from the mountain guard’s arm.

In fact, at the moment of the fracture, the mountain guard watched in horror as the bone of his own arm protruded from the flesh.

The mountain guard was smashed down to the ground by this punch.

It shook the ground enough to create a slight tremor.

And that wasn’t all.

Zhou Yu then stomped down hard.

Bang!

This kick landed solidly on the mountain guard’s chest.

His chest caved inward significantly.

The mountain guard’s complexion turned to one of horror; he couldn’t tell whether he felt more pain or fear.

"You... weren’t you poisoned?"

"How is that possible..."

Zhou Yu sneered, "I’ve been poisoned since I was young; your poison is nothing to me!"

Seeing this scene, the elder in the pavilion revealed a smile.

"It’s over."

The young man opposite him was already dumbfounded.

He never expected that just a second ago, Zhou Yu had been stabbed and poisoned, seemingly powerless to fight back, yet the next second, he was as vigorous as a dragon, and within a few seconds, had taken down the mountain guard.

After a brief shock, the young man immediately looked at the elder.

"Elder, how did he do that?"

"That poison from the mountain guard wasn’t ordinary, right?"

"Yes, that’s right. An average Saint Realm master poisoned by it would likely show symptoms within a few minutes. The milder cases would damage their meridians and organs, while the severe cases would result in death."

"Then how is this lad unharmed?"

The elder shook his head and smiled:

"That, I do not know."

"However, it’s precisely because of this that he’s no simple figure."

Upon hearing this, a gleam flashed in the young man’s eyes.

"Elder, what do you think if I subdue this person?"

The elder was momentarily stunned and looked at the young man in front of him.

"Young master, if you could subdue this lad, he would indeed be a great asset to you."

"My fear is this lad, proud and aloof, isn’t the kind who would submit to others."

The young man chuckled.

"Elder, that’s where you’re mistaken."

"Although this lad has defeated the mountain guard and seems very impressive, he has also planted a massive disaster for himself, maybe even a death warrant."

"Don’t you remember?"

"This is Red Leaf Villa; the mountain guard and others are experts nurtured by the Ye Family."

"He killed someone from the Ye Family. Will Ye Family let him go?"

The elder was slightly startled.

He immediately understood the young man’s implication.

"What you say does make sense," he admitted.

"But young master, if you intend to save him, aren’t you afraid of offending the Ye Family?"

"Heh, just a Saint Realm guard. If necessary, I’ll just offer a hefty compensation."

The young man was full of arrogance, but he didn’t notice that this statement made the elder in front of him show a displeased expression.

The elder did not say anything more.

Meanwhile, Zhou Yu had already approached the fallen mountain guard.

He looked down at the mountain guard lying on the ground.

"How does that kick feel?"

Ironically, just three minutes earlier, the mountain guard had asked Zhou Yu the same question, but now, the roles were reversed!

The mountain guard’s face was bloody, and he struggled to rise, but his injuries were too severe, and he could no longer stand.

The mountain guard’s eyes filled with shock and anger.

"Impossible!"

"You clearly... were poisoned by me... How could you be fine..."

Zhou Yu sneered:

"Isn’t this what you taught me?"

"This is called, ’all’s fair in war.’"

As he spoke, Zhou Yu slapped down from the air, and the mountain guard immediately passed out.

Then, Zhou Yu turned to look at Vice President Zhou, his eyes filled with a cold intent.

"Have you prepared any more tricks? Use them quickly, because soon, you won’t have the chance anymore."
