Along with the shout, Gao Fei's sword that was thrusting towards Ku Shou suddenly stopped moving. Following that, a figure flew out from the forest. However, it was flying and not flying on a sword.
"City Lord Ning?!" The Gao brothers were shocked. It turned out that this person was Ningshui City Lord Ning Wuji.
"I don't know who you are, but today, they cannot die in your hands," Ning Wuji stood in front of everyone and spoke to the Gao brothers.
"City Lord Ning, why is that?" Gao Fei was confused. Anyone who stayed in Ningshui City for a period of time would know that Ning Wuji and Kunlun didn't have a good relationship. Although they weren't enemies, they didn't have any interactions. But today, he actually saved the Kunlun people. This was too surprising.
"No why? But today, you cannot kill them, "Ning Wuji didn't give any explanation.
"This … alright. Since City Lord Ning has said so, then we shall take our leave," Gao Fei knew that it was impossible to kill these Kunlun cultivators and seize their resources.
Although he didn't know why Ning Wuji would step forward to help them, he was able to understand some of the contents. These Kunlun cultivators could be killed, but not today. However, Gao Fei also knew that it was impossible for him to catch such a rare opportunity again.
Although it was a pity, they had no choice but to retreat. Ning Wuji's identity wasn't just a decoration, but a proof of his strength.
All the City Lords in the Cultivation World were at least in the Golden Core late stage. Therefore, although Ning Wuji's strength wasn't considered high among the City Lords, to others, a Golden Core late stage expert meant a lot.
Not to mention the fact that one of the Gao brothers was only in the middle stage of Foundation Establishment and the other was in the early stage of Foundation Establishment, even if all the Foundation Establishment experts here were in perfect condition, they still wouldn't be able to withstand a single move from a late stage Gold Core cultivator.
In their opinion, Cheng Yu's strength was indeed very strong, but that was only in comparison to them. Even if he was in front of a Golden Core late stage cultivator, he still wouldn't have any strength to resist.
The Gao brothers looked at each other before flying off on their flying swords. When he saw the duo had left, Ku Shou heaved a sigh of relief. He looked at Ning Wuji and said gratefully, "Thank you City Lord Ning for helping us out. After a period of time, we will definitely pay a visit to thank you."
"There's no need. I will set up a restriction around you all. Rest for a while and return to the Kunlun Realm." After Ning Wu Ji finished speaking, he formed a seal with his hands and chanted the incantation. The Kunlun cultivators seemed to be covered by a transparent glass. A few rays of purple light flowed on the surface and flickered a few times before disappearing.
Ning Wu Ji did not linger and flew away.
When Ku Shou saw that Ning Wuji had left and everyone had the protection of the restriction, he felt more at ease. He closed his eyes and started to recover.
"Big Brother, it's really a pity this time. I didn't think that both of our partners would slip away just like that." After flying for a while, the Gao brothers stopped and walked on the ground. Gao Yuan said in a depressed tone.
"That's right. But it can't be helped. Who would have expected that City Lord Ning would suddenly appear? Moreover, who would have thought that he, who has never had a good impression of Kunlun, would actually come to help them?" Gao Fei was also very regretful. Although Ning Wu Ji said that they could kill these Kunlun cultivators in the future, how would they have the chance to do so in the future?
Normally, the two of them would not even be able to defeat a Foundation Establishment Late Stage cultivator, let alone four of them. If they were to kill all these Kunlun cultivators today, not only would they be able to pick up a huge bargain, but the Kunlun people would also think that they were killed by that person.
"Aiya!" Gao Fei slapped his head when he thought of this. He seemed to have understood something.
"Big Brother, what's wrong?" Gao Yuan asked in confusion.
"Say, if we were to kill all these Kunlun cultivators today, who would those Kunlun people think did it?" Gao Fei asked.
"Of course it's that person. They had sent so many people to chase after that person. In the end, they never returned. How would others think that we were the ones who killed them?" Gao Yuan wasn't stupid and spoke as if it was a matter of fact.
"That's right. They are all dead. Others would only think that it was that person who did it. But now, City Lord Ning doesn't allow us to kill these Kunlun cultivators. Isn't it because he doesn't want that person to take the blame? "Gao Fei spoke out his thoughts.
"Big Brother, you are saying that City Lord Ning is together with that person? If that's the case, wouldn't he want to kill them all the more? Why would he leave behind these calamities? "Gao Yuan was puzzled.
"Er … this. They might not necessarily be together. Perhaps, they only know each other and don't want us to borrow a knife to kill them," Gao Fei didn't understand as well.
"If you put it that way, it might be possible. But just now, we also saw Miss Ning Wushuang there. Miss Ning Wushuang also seemed to want to kill that person. Isn't this illogical? "Gao Yuan recalled Ning Wushuang's graceful figure. His face turned absent-minded. It seemed like in the vicinity of Ningshui City, Ning Wushuang's admirers could be seen everywhere.
"Haiz. Forget it. In any case, this matter has already passed. We have also lost this opportunity forever. In the future, if we see these people again, we have to be more careful. Today, we have already revealed ourselves. Sooner or later, they will look for us to settle the debt," Gao Fei said gloomily.
Originally, they were there to catch fish. In the end, they didn't manage to catch the fish. Instead, they were targeted by the fish. Was there anything more depressing than this?
Actually, the Gao brothers had guessed some of Ning Wuji's thoughts. However, they weren't able to guess it completely.
Ning Wuji didn't know who Cheng Yu was. The reason why he didn't want Cheng Yu to be borrowed by others was because he cherished talent. His daughter could be said to be a well-known figure among the younger generation. Although she couldn't be compared to some of the young geniuses in Kunlun, she was able to reach the Foundation Establishment Realm at the age of 20. This kind of aptitude was definitely not bad.
However, when he saw Cheng Yu, he was truly astonished. He wasn't able to tell Cheng Yu's age, but he could tell that Cheng Yu wasn't that old. At such a young age, he had already reached the Foundation Establishment Realm late stage. Furthermore, he wasn't any ordinary Foundation Establishment Realm late stage. From his performance just now, his strength could basically sweep away all the Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators in the Cultivation World.
However, although Cheng Yu was powerful, the current him still didn't have the ability to fight against a Golden Core expert. Therefore, while Ning Wuji didn't wish to be borrowed by the Gao brothers, there was another important reason. He didn't wish to lure out Kunlun's Golden Core expert to deal with Cheng Yu.
Ning Wuji didn't have any other reason. He just didn't wish to see a genius fall. He wished to see how far this young man could walk. Cultivators placed great importance on opportunities. Ning Wuji had already been in the Golden Core Realm for over a hundred years. However, he still didn't have any signs of forming his Nascent Soul.
He didn't know if he would have such a day. Perhaps, he needed an opportunity. However, no one knew where this opportunity was. Cheng Yu was able to have such strength at such a young age. He could definitely be considered as a person with great luck.
To form a good relationship with such a person, perhaps, it was the opportunity that he needed.

At this moment, the heavily injured Cheng Yu was lying on his flying sword as he flew above the forest. "Pu!
Pu! "Cheng Yu vomited another two mouthfuls of blood. After that, he fell down from the tree.
However, Cheng Yu didn't fall onto the ground. Instead, he was caught by the branches of the tree. Cheng Yu fainted immediately. The blood on his mouth was still dripping down.

"Father, it's so hard for your daughter to come back. Where did you go?" Ning Wuji had just returned home when he saw his daughter acting coquettishly beside him.
"Haha! How old are you already? Why are you still acting like a little girl? How many days are you staying this time?" When Ning Wuji saw his daughter, he was very happy. His daughter was his only concern. When he saw his daughter was able to be happy, there was nothing better than this.
"Heh heh! This time, master allowed me to stay at home for a month. When I return, master asked me to go into seclusion. He said that before I reach Foundation Establishment late stage, I can't come out," Ning Wushuang said happily and gloomily.
"Oh? Could it be that your strength has grown so fast in the past two years? You are already about to enter Foundation Establishment late stage? "When he heard his daughter's words, Ning Wuji said happily.
"I don't know either. That's what master told me," Ning Wushuang shook her head.
"Alright. I believe that Valley Master Hua wouldn't speak without thinking. Wushuang, you must cultivate well. I believe that with your aptitude, you will definitely form your Golden Core within a hundred years," Ning Wuji said with a smile. He had placed too much hope on Ning Wushuang.
"I also hope that the day will come sooner. Father, I met a weird person today. He's just a Foundation Establishment late stage cultivator, but he was able to fight against a few experts in the same realm as him, as well as dozens of Foundation Establishment middle stage and initial stage experts, "When she heard her father mentioning cultivation, Ning Wushuang suddenly recalled that mystical pervert.
"Oh? There's such a thing? You know him? " Ning Wuji naturally knew that his daughter was talking about Cheng Yu. Previously, when he followed a group of Kunlun people to find Cheng Yu, the first person he saw was his daughter.
When he saw his daughter's angry expression, he also wanted to know what had happened between them. However, he still endured it and watched the whole battle quietly.
Now that his daughter had returned, it wasn't good for him to say it first. Wouldn't that be exposing that he was also at the scene? Therefore, he pretended that he didn't know anything and took the opportunity to find out what had happened between them.
"I … how could I know that pervert?" When she heard her father's words, Ning Wushuang quickly denied it.
"Pervert? What did he do to you? I will go and kill him! "When Ning Wuji heard his daughter had called Cheng Yu a pervert, he immediately spoke in anger.
This anger was both real and fake. Naturally, he could tell that his daughter was still a virgin. Furthermore, when he first saw Cheng Yu, he didn't feel that he was such an evil person. But the truth was, his daughter was his treasure. If Cheng Yu really dared to do such a thing to Ning Wushuang, even if Ning Wuji admired Cheng Yu a lot and thought very highly of him, he would still kill him.
However, Ning Wushuang didn't know that her father's expression was fake. She was truly frightened. Her father was in the Golden Core late stage. No matter how powerful Cheng Yu was, he wouldn't be able to block an attack from a Golden Core late stage expert.
