879: Chapter 554: The Profligate 879: Chapter 554: The Profligate “Save…
?”
The cold breeze of late winter swept through the desolate street as Qin Weishu revealed a strange expression, the corners of his lips curving into a slight smile while glancing at Xu ngxi on the other side, “You don’t think I was going to kill her, do you?”
Deny it….
Xu Yuan glanced at Xu ngxi, who was thrown down and struggling to get up, and spoke with an even tone,
“From what I’ve seen, if your female companion’s strike had landed solidly, her heart ridian would likely have shattered.
Do I really need to describe to you the consequences of her death…”
“So you also acknowledge it’s only a likelihood?”
“Hmm?”
“…”
Qin Weishu slightly leaped off the carriage, the indifferent woman by his side, and with a light, smiling tone said,
“Mister Qin doesn’t know who you are, but seeing the woman by your side suggests your family background must not be simple.
However, I’m really curious…”
At this, he touched his chin:
“…haven’t your family taught you not to ddle in others’ affairs when you are outside?”
Xu Yuan raised his eyebrows and gradually his smile faded as he asked,
“So this matter cannot be settled amicably?”
“Settled…
What to settle?”
His words beca increasingly pressing.
Qin Weishu tilted his head and stared at Xu Yuan, the temperature in his originally smiling voice dropped slightly,
“When she was insulting earlier, I didn’t see you co forward to dissuade her.
Now that I’m clearly winning, you step in to play the hero saving the beauty?”
“Ha….”
Letting out a light chuckle, Xu Yuan shook his head with regret,
“Second Young Master Qin, judging others by your own standards is not a good habit.”
Saying this and laughing lightly, Xu Yuan glanced at Qin Weishu, then turned his back, waving his hand,
“I didn’t think you had so many thoughts.
Since you are confident, I’ll leave the lady to you.
Let’s go, Chang Xi.”
With that, Xu Yuan walked straight towards his own carriage.
Bai Muxi calmly glanced at the pair with a chilly gaze across from her and followed closely behind Xu Yuan.
“Tap….”
“Tap….”
Footsteps echoed back as the cold wind gently swept up dust.
Although unsure if it was an act, it seed that Qin Weishu was not willing to let matters rest at that.
Such a reaction was sowhat beyond Xu Yuan’s expectations; he thought anyone should be able to discern the current situation.
On the surface, both sides consisted of three people, and their cultivation levels were also the sa.
Each side had two Great Grandmasters who had disabled one of their own, along with an Integration Body.
From the mont he intervened, the whole matter had already fallen into a stalemate.
Regardless of the annoyance, the situation forced both sides to take a step back to move past this farce, so that things could work out for everyone.
Considering that from the start of the fight until now was only the ti it took to drink a cup of tea, given the arrival speed of the City Defense Office’s experts, they were almost upon them.
To linger in such tangles – could it be that Qin Weishu was truly a wastrel?
If so, Xu Yuan could sowhat understand the other’s motive.
While mulling over these various thoughts, Xu ngxi, who had been ambushed, held onto the Simple Knife and slowly stood up from the ground.
She silently glanced at the departing figure in brocade, hesitated slightly, moved her lips, and sent out a whispered ssage:
“Thank you, Young Master…
I’ll rember this favor.”
“…..”
Upon hearing the ssage, Xu Yuan’s opinion of the constable improved quite a bit.
Because if it had been before, this woman would have most certainly used lofty morality to coerce him into staying and lending a hand…
“Boom!”
As he was thinking, a muffled sound suddenly erupted, with a gust of wind attacking swiftly from behind.
The Five Elents Shield Technique instantly ford, positioning behind Xu Yuan.
However, the force was not directed at Xu Yuan, but it was the raging wind that buffeted his clothes violently.
Due to this sudden change, Xu Yuan didn’t turn around but shifted his eyes slightly to the side just in ti to see a blurred figure flying past him.
Loosely bound hair beca disheveled in the wind, and her beautiful features showed a look of intense pain; drops of bright red blood blossod in mid-air.
The constable had barely gotten up before she was struck down again.
Although Xu ngxi was a genius, she had no cheats, nor did she have the thick health bar like Xu Yuan.
Having been secretly attacked by the middle-aged coachman, she had already lost much of her fighting power.
For the woman in the light clothing to strike her down in one hit was actually quite normal.
But none of that was important; what mattered was that Xu ngxi’s landing spot was precisely where his carriage stood.
It was actually quite fair.
After all, Xu Yuan had, in one way or another, spoiled soone’s good fortune.
However…
He sighed quietly in his heart and spoke again, his voice tinged with a trace of icy humor,
…having already stepped back, are they refusing the face I’ve given them?
No unnecessary words; only two syllables.
“Act.”
As his words fell,
Bai Muxi’s bright eyes drooped slightly, and a layer of brown fungal armor spread from the ring on her fingertip, her red lips curved in a smile.
In an instant,
a barrier of water surged from the air, catching Xu ngxi, who was flying with imnse kinetic energy, preventing her from crashing into her young master’s carriage.
At the sa ti, Bai Muxi’s Qi Machine locked onto the thinly-clad woman.
The mont the woman in thin clothes felt the tidal surge of the opposing Qi Machine, her expressionless face was imdiately followed by swift action; without any hesitation, she stepped forward and charged towards Xu Yuan and his companion.
It seed they were dealing with another crude martial artist.
Unlike Xu Yuan, Bai Muxi, as a bona fide Mage, didn’t allow the woman any chance to close the distance.
In the instant her Qi Machine Lock was in place, countless searing fireballs accompanied by Gengjin XuanSpikes had already gathered around her.
With the downward motion of her slender forefinger, they shot out like a torrential downpour.
The thinly-clad woman’s expression remained indifferent, her cool eyes rapidly tracing the paths of the spellcraft.
She aid to dodge and approach simultaneously, but she suddenly realized the attacks were not aid at her but at Qin Weishu, who stood before the carriage…
“….”
“….”
“Boom!!!!”
The explosion of fireballs engulfed the entire street block, and a mushroom cloud of black smoke rose high, visible from tens of miles away alongside the firestorm.
As a whirlwind dispersed the flas, two figures slowly erged from the center of the explosion.
The principle of being unhard amidst smoke and debris doesn’t exist in reality.
The woman’s death soldier’s tattered clothes hung from her body, and while her overcoat might have been made of quality fabric, it couldn’t withstand a direct assault from such powerful spellcraft.
Beneath the tattered combat gear, her skin was scorched by the fiery blast and marked with wounds inflicted by Gengjin XuanSpikes, her bright red blood seeping out continuously.
Yet, Qin Weishu beside the female death soldier remained unscathed.
Qin Weishu looked at the cold-eyed youth across from him, his eyes filled with a mix of shock and uncertainty.
He’d never seen anyone more reckless than this.
He’d only damaged his carriage, yet was he intent on taking his life?
After a mont of astonishnt, Qin Weishu lightly licked his lips, his eyes taking on an excited gleam as he laughed loudly,
“Hey…
are you trying to kill outright?”
“That’s not quite right.”
Xu Yuan shook his head, his tone still light, and pointed to his overturned carriage amid the explosion,
“I rely wanted to destroy your carriage, who told you to be right in front of it?
The quality of your carriage isn’t bad; it should be able to take another hit.”
Saying this, Xu Yuan grinned,
“Of course, if you wish to kneel and apologize, I might spare your carriage.”
Qin Weishu opened his mouth and then closed it, finally letting out a chuckle,
“You…
are the most arrogant person I’ve ever t.”
“If you don’t comply, I’ll beco the last one you’ve ever t.”
“….”
Qin Weishu’s eyes turned frosty, no longer wasting words.
He maximized the flow of his Cultivation Technique, rubbed his wrists, and ordered coldly,
“Fei Qing, keep that woman by this brat’s side busy for ; I’m going over there to tear this kid’s mouth apart…”
“No need to go to such trouble.”
Xu Yuan smiled and interrupted, snapping his fingers.
In an instant, the entire street block darkened.
A strange black substance in the air changed from light to dark, and almost the entirety of Huaijiu Alley was engulfed.
Within the eerie mist, a leisurely voice echoed as if through a deserted valley,
“Second Young Master Qin, your brother Qin Weijiu was defeated by the eldest son of the Pri Minister’s Mansion in three strikes during the last Heavenly Elent Competition.
I wonder how many moves you, as his younger brother, can withstand against ?”
