Chapter 1136: Ominous Person

Chapter 1136: Chapter 1136: Ominous Person

To Yang Ruojun, no matter how strong Fang Bai was, he was just one person. Even if one added the thousands of disciples from the Bitao Martial Academy behind him, their combined strength still paled in comparison to that of Swiftwind Valley.

And Swiftwind Valley was a contemporary second-rank major sect, boasting over a dozen Cosmic Level and thousands of Vast Level experts, with disciples spread throughout the True Martial Realm. Such tremendous power was enough to send chills down anyone’s spine.

If Swiftwind Valley sought to vent its anger towards the Xuannv Sect over the death of the Feng brothers, then, without a doubt, the Xuannv Sect would face an existential calamity.

But similarly, if Fang Bai could annihilate the Purple Flame Sect, he could likewise annihilate the Xuannv Sect.

Compared to that, Yang Ruojun was more concerned about the potential retaliation from Swiftwind Valley.

As for Fang Bai, he had deep connections with the Linghu sisters. As long as the Xuannv Sect maintained a firm control over the Linghu sisters, it would make Fang Bai hesitate to act rashly out of fear of harming them.

"If our Xuannv Sect were to join forces with Elder Qiu to kill Fang Bai, perhaps we could then receive Swiftwind Valley’s forgiveness." Yang Ruojun looked at the two people fiercely fighting in the arena and mused aloud, although Elder Qiu Heming seemed to have the upper hand, constantly suppressing Fang Bai, he was still unable to inflict any substantial damage on him.

"We mustn’t!"

"We mustn’t!"

"No!"

"No!"

"No!"

As soon as Yang Ruojun finished speaking, the venue immediately erupted with exclamations from five women.

The two women who cried out "We mustn’t!" were Han Xingyu and Linghu Hongyan.

The three women who exclaimed "No!" were Zhuge Lian, Linghu Qianjiao, and Linghu Baimei.

Yang Ruojun’s expression turned cold as he scanned the faces of the five women, then he asked Han Xingyu in a chilly voice, "Elder Han, why mustn’t we?"

Han Xingyu replied, "Reporting to the Sect Leader, Fang Bai’s strength is profound and unfathomable. When he killed the two stewards of Swiftwind Valley in Purple Flame City, he seemed not to have used his full strength. If we fail to kill him and he escapes, wouldn’t that lead to endless troubles?"

Yang Ruojun’s gaze flickered indecisively before turning to Linghu Hongyan, asking, "Hongyan, what’s your opinion?"

Linghu Hongyan answered, "Sect Leader, when Qian Jiao, Baimei, and I were in the Secular World, Fang Bai showed us three considerable kindness..."

"Ridiculous!"

Linghu Hongyan was abruptly interrupted by Yang Ruojun before she could finish, as he shouted sternly, "How can personal feelings be compared to the interests of the sect? Hongyan, you’ve greatly disappointed me!"

"Xiao Lian, and you too!"

Yang Ruojun then looked at Zhuge Lian, recalling the moment she had inadvertently called Fang Bai "Brother Fang" when he had appeared in the Xuannv Hall, and suspicion filled his eyes. Frowning, he asked, "Do you also know that Fang Bai?"

Just now, neither Han Xingyu nor Yang Ruojun had mentioned anything about Zhuge Lian encountering Fang Bai in Purple Flame City, prompting Yang Ruojun to ask this question.

"Hmm, I met Brother Fang in Purple Flame City."

Zhuge Lian did not deny knowing Fang Bai and immediately pleaded, "Sect Leader, Brother Fang is a good person, please don’t harm him."

In Zhuge Lian’s eyes, although Fang Bai was currently being suppressed by Qiu Heming, he hadn’t been defeated and wasn’t in immediate danger of losing his life. However, if the higher-ups of Xuannv Sect swarmed in and joined Qiu Heming in attacking Fang Bai, he would be in a perilous situation in an instant.

"A good person? He might be a good person in your eyes, but in mine, he is an ominous person who brings disaster to Xuannv Sect!"

Yang Ruojun gritted her teeth, speaking bitterly.

Before Fang Bai’s arrival, Xuannv Sect had wiped out the leadership of the Dragon Tiger Palace among five major sects with the help of Qiu Heming. Yang Ruojun was overjoyed by this, believing that after this battle, Xuannv Sect would see an unprecedented great situation and becoming Qingping Country’s number one sect was a certainty.

What Yang Ruojun never expected was that as soon as Fang Bai made his appearance, he killed the Feng brothers of Swiftwind Valley, becoming their sworn enemy. And it just so happened that Xuannv Sect disciples, Linghu Qian Jiao and Linghu Baimei, had a deep relationship with Fang Bai. What would Swiftwind Valley think if they knew this?

Even if Xuannv Sect could clear themselves of any association with Fang Bai, with two personal transmission disciples of Swiftwind Valley killed within Xuannv Sect, Xuannv Sect could not be uninvolved by any means.

In short, in Yang Ruojun’s eyes, it was precisely Fang Bai’s emergence that complicated matters and pushed Xuannv Sect into danger.

Back in the Xuannv Hall, when Fang Bai killed the Feng brothers, Yang Ruojun was so angry that she wanted to slap Fang Bai to death on the spot, but unfortunately, Fang Bai’s strength was too formidable, far beyond the reach of a martial artist of her level.

Now, Yang Ruojun only hoped to assist Qiu Heming to jointly kill Fang Bai, to prove that Xuannv Sect and Fang Bai were enemies and not allies, and to lessen some of Swiftwind Valley’s wrath.

As for Linghu Qian Jiao and Linghu Baimei’s recent startled cries of "don’t," Yang Ruojun was not surprised; she knew that the two women had already known Fang Bai in the Secular World, and their hearts were with him.

Actually, when Linghu sisters first joined Xuannv Sect, Yang Ruojun valued them greatly, for Innate Spiritual Roots are rare and precious, and if cultivated carefully, they could achieve great accomplishments on the Martial Dao, bringing glory to the sect. However, the sisters later disobeyed her command as Sect Leader to forge a marital alliance with the Feng brothers of Swiftwind Valley. This made Yang Ruojun feel as if her authority had been challenged and she ordered the sisters to be imprisoned in Reflection Valley.

Yet, unexpectedly, once Fang Bai learned that the two were imprisoned, he came knocking on the door and killed two personal transmission disciples of Swiftwind Valley in the Xuannv Hall, causing a huge disaster.

"Both of you, like that Fang Bai, are also ominous people!"

At this moment, Yang Ruojun no longer considered the Linghu sisters as disciples of Xuannv Sect, and her gaze towards them was indescribably cold.

Yang Ruojun planned, after Fang Bai was killed, to hand over the Linghu sisters to Qiu Heming to take back to Swiftwind Valley for disposal. As for whether the sisters lived or died, that would have nothing to do with Xuannv Sect from then on.

Her words "ominous people" conveyed a meaning that all the Xuannv Sect higher-ups present understood. They exchanged glances, with varied expressions.

Han Xingyu’s mouth moved slightly, wanting to speak up for the Linghu sisters, but fearing to provoke even greater wrath from the Sect Leader, he could only sigh.

Linghu Hongyan knew that the Linghu sisters had been abandoned by the Sect Leader, and a pained expression flitted across her face as she lamented in her heart, "Qian Jiao, Baimei, I have failed you."

She knew that if the Linghu sisters wanted to preserve their lives, their only hope now was that Fang Bai could overcome Qiu Heming. But with the Sect Leader prepared to join forces with Qiu Heming, what chance did Fang Bai stand?

When the Linghu sisters heard that Yang Ruojun intended to join forces with Qiu Heming against Fang Bai, their complexions turned pale.

Although they were only Desolate Level Martial Artists, they still had good judgment. With Fang Bai’s current condition, he could barely hold his own against Qiu Heming, and if the Xuannv Sect higher-ups joined the fray, Fang Bai would undoubtedly be defeated.

They both wanted to help Fang Bai, but knew they would only hinder him, and could not be of any help at all. They were filled with anxious concern. As for Yang Ruojun’s labeling them as ominous people, they turned a deaf ear, not taking it to heart at all.

It was at this moment, in the square in front of Xuannv Hall, that a blood-red blade light swept across the sky, instantly filling the air with killing Qi and a stench of blood.

Fang Bai, who had been sent flying several feet by a palm strike from Qiu Heming, now held in his hands a blood-colored long sabre.
