Chapter 372: Chapter 372: Vowing not to give up until avenging Third Master’s injury

The murderous intent surrounding Master Xu was no less intense than that of Qin Ruan’s.

His body taut, his eyes filled with caution, he confirmed: "Indeed, it’s me."

The woman standing before him had killed his favorite disciple. Despite her being from the Huo family, a life needed to be paid for a life taken.

Ironically, Qin Ruan was thinking the same thing.

Master Xu had harmed her third master (husband). She wouldn’t rest until she’d had her revenge!

In the deep pools of her eyes, Master Xu, slightly shorter than her, appeared grotesquely ugly.

Master Xu was not only sly in appearance. His nose, eyes, mouth, and eyebrows combined made him seem as if they were assembled from someone else’s body, making him eerily hideous.

Hovering around him was a dense cloud of dark evil energy and demonic qi, wreaking of death and malevolence.

The depths of Qin Ruan’s eyes were pierced with icy intimidation as she coldly declared, "I’m giving you a chance: explain what you did to my third master and save yourself from some pain."

An annoyed look crossed Master Xu’s face as he scoffed, "I don’t know what you’re talking about."

Her gaze freezing over, Qin Ruan turned to Master Xu, her bloodthirsty lips curling up cruelly, "Is that so?"

Her golden whip materialized in her hand, transforming into a radiant nether divine power, permeating the whole dining hall.

The crowd couldn’t see the golden light, but they could certainly feel the intimidating power.

Catching everyone off guard, Qin Ruan lashed her whip towards Master Xu.

"Smack!"

Master Xu wasn’t just going to stand there and take it, he dodged swiftly.

But no matter how fast he was, he couldn’t outrun the velocity of Qin Ruan’s fury.

The whip still landed on Master Xu’s back.

The unyielding strength of the whip made his back ache like it was being burned.

Nangong Chang, who was standing next to him, also felt the repercussions of the nether power.

A chill rushed up his spine, setting off alarm bells in his chest.

A dangerous light marked Nangong Chang’s eyes as he glared coldly at Qin Ruan.

"Madam, this is the Nangong residence, you’re overstepping!" he declared.

Qin Ruan counteracted with an equally cold intensity, "Shut up, I’ll deal with you later!"

She approached Master Xu, her questions seeping with icy malevolence, "So will you tell me now?"

"You’re asking for death!" Master Xu wasn’t scared of Qin Ruan. Anger surged, filling him with a desire to kill her.

Even if Qin Ruan was from the Mystical Sect, the revered divine tools protecting him were perceived as sacred by the so-called righteous Heavenly Masters.

No one could kill him in this world.

Master Xu was agitated. A dense, palpable evil qi enveloped him, and traces of demonic qi escaped from him, spreading a foul stench around the dining hall.

"What’s that smell?"

A lady pinched her nose in disgust, scrunching her brows.

The men also wrinkled their noses in irritation.

Qin Ruan swung her whip towards Master Xu in mid-air again.

This time, instead of evading, Master Xu boldly lunged towards Qin Ruan.

His evading speed was much faster than before, and the rich evil qi and demonic qi erupted even more furiously.

The dark evil energy was overwhelmingly oppressive, but for Qin Ruan, it was an elixir of an extended lifespan.

The golden whip missed Master Xu. He appeared in front of Qin Ruan in an instant.

Extending his hand, gleaming with black, claw-like evil qi, he went straight for Qin Ruan’s face.

Seeing the situation turn for the worse, Huo Yirong shouted at Nangong Chang, "Stop your man! If anything happens to my sister, the Nangong house will never have a day of peace!"

A warning laden with hostility and direct threats was a rarity from the always composed and rarely temperamental Huo family.

Nangong Chang returned a faint smile, "Your people were the ones who initiated it. Master Xu isn’t at fault here. Why don’t you ask your young madam to stop?"

"Master Xu is an honored guest who was invited to our home by us the Nangongs. He doesn’t take orders from us, so he might not listen to what I have to say."

The explicit delight at someone else’s misfortune made the Second Master of the Huo’s want to strangle him.

"Ahhh!!!!"

Meanwhile, a change occurred in the altercation between Qin Ruan and Master Xu.

Master Xu’s miserable scream echoed in the hall, sending a chill down everyone’s spine.

Unfortunately, Master Xu’s scream was so harrowing that it made everyone feel as though they were experiencing the pain themselves.

Just as Qin Ruan was about to suffer a blow, a powerful surge of nether divine power shielded her, instantly trapping Master Xu.

Master Xu was left vulnerable, like a lamb ready to be slaughtered.

"Smack! Smack! Smack!!!"

Qin Ruan wielded her golden whip powerfully, battering Master Xu.

Recalling the sight of the third master vomiting blood triggered Qin Ruan’s fury, making it impossible for her to stay calm.

In her previous life, as a soul she’d wandered in the cemetery on Wanbao Mountain, witnessing the third master coughing up blood.

It was just before his death when he was at his weakest. Even in that state, he was still visiting her and their child in the mountains.

Every time she remembered his frail state before his death, Qin Ruan’s heart sank, leaving her with a lingering pain.

"Stop it! I will kill you!"

In a matter of blinking, Master Xu was reduced to a bloody mess. Literally so.

His gray robe was torn to shreds due to the whip’s strength, revealing horrific wounds.

The wounds resembled knife cuts. The areas where the golden whip had left its mark were raw, with blood dripping on the floor from the broken flesh.

Even a slaughterhouse wasn’t this gory.

The unbearable pain forced Master Xu to beg for mercy, "Stop, please stop!"

Qin Ruan stopped and approached Master Xu. With the handle of her whip, she lifted his chin, "I gave you a chance earlier, but you didn’t seize it. Now it’s too late!"

Master Xu glared at Qin Ruan with bloodshot eyes, "I will kill you! I swear, I will!"

Qin Ruan scoffed, her gaze icy, "You hurt my man. You want to kill me too? Do you think I’m a fool or an idiot for letting you live in this world?"

Master Xu’s eyes shifted nervously, a hint of fear creeping onto his face, "You can’t do this. You mustn’t!"

Qin Ruan looked at him, her cold, jesting eyes revealing a ruthless streak. "I can! As long as I say I can, no one can stop me!"

Master Xu turned to Nangong Chang, "Master Nangong, save me!"

He knew that Qin Ruan would indeed kill him.

This woman’s powers were too mysterious. His life-saving charms couldn’t even be activated under her strange power.

Master Xu had never encountered such an opponent before. With the smell of death so close, he had no choice but to plead for Nangong Chang’s help.

As long as he could survive, he would have his revenge. For now, he needed to think about how to escape.
