"You're awake."
In the dark room, Huang Shaoyu slowly opened his eyes. There was nothing in his empty eye sockets. It was as if at that moment of life and death, all his emotions had been swallowed by the endless darkness.
The one who spoke was Ji Hyun-woon, who was leaning on the door frame. When she saw that Huang Shaoyu had woken up, she turned and walked out of the door, "I'm leaving."
"Wait!" Huang Shaoyu stood up and chased after her, "Where are you going?" At this moment, his eyes regained a trace of life and turned into a faint murderous aura, "Don't tell me you're going to leave!"
"I'm going to do my duty." Ji Hyun-woon said lightly. A ray of sunlight stubbornly penetrated through the dark sky and shone on her embroidered robe, making her look exceptionally dazzling. Compared to the result of her failed revenge, her expression was a little too dull.
Huang Shaoyu's anger rushed to his brain, "Ji Hyun-woon, Qiuyu and I were dragged into this by you. Now that Qiuyu is dead, you're telling me you're going to leave? Let me tell you, I won't allow you to leave! "
"Most of the responsibility for Yu Jianzi's death lies on this prince. There's no problem with that. This prince is also willing to make any compensation. Once you've thought it through, come find this prince." Ji Hyun-woon finished speaking and turned to leave.
"Stop right there!" Huang Shaoyu rushed up to block the door. He glared angrily and his face was flushed red, "Does the Wei imperial palace belong to a bastard? Do you want to shrink your head after suffering a blow? Let me tell you, even if I agree, Qiuyu's soul won't agree! "
"Seeing that we've just lost a loved one, this prince won't argue with you. If you insult the Wei imperial palace again, don't blame this prince for being impolite!" Ji Hyun-woon said coldly.
"Alright! How impolite are you going to be? Come at me, Huang Shaoyu. If I, Huang Shaoyu, am afraid of a bastard like you today, I'll write my name backwards! "
The two divine lights of fiery red and icy white collided with the earthy yellow light wave. The two of them didn't say a word, so they both circulated their power. The unique mark of a cultivator, the aura, naturally appeared.
Actually, it was not difficult to understand Huang Shaoyu's feelings. From the time he handed over the Lulin people to Yan Li, it could be seen that he was a man of great responsibility. If one wasn't born with a cheap bone in their body, who would be willing to give up the country that their parents had fought for and live by the whims of others? As a result, Yu Qiuyu was reduced to ashes in front of his eyes. Self-blame and remorse occupied his heart like a poisonous snake. There was no room for anything else.
After the clash of auras, naturally, it was the clash of fists and kicks. Huang Shaoyu's overall strength was still a bit inferior to Ji Hyun-woon's. After all, the latter's true name and methods were more than a level higher than his own. Even though the Earth Fiend Art had its unique aspects, it was at most a well-known skill, far from reaching the level of an ultimate art.
Of course, in real combat, these factors could only be used as support. Huang Shaoyu had fought against Star Meteor Beasts for six years in the hunting field, accumulating abundant combat experience, yet he still couldn't decide victory or defeat within three to five moves.
The two of them actually still had some self-restraint, or else this courtyard would have long been destroyed. That would be too disrespectful to their savior.
"Heng, why aren't you stopping yet?!"
At this time, a delicate shout sounded from the northeast corner of the courtyard. The two who were fighting guessed that the one who came should be the powerful senior who saved them from Li Ku's hands. As such, they both stopped. When they turned around, they couldn't help but stare blankly. In their expectations, the one who could save them from Li Ku's hands was definitely an old senior who didn't appear in worldly affairs. Who would have thought that it was actually three beautiful young ladies who were as beautiful as flowers and jade, moreover, they seemed to have been carved from the same mold. If it wasn't for their clothing and decorations being clearly different, there was no way to tell them apart.
"The three of you are?" In the past, Huang Shaoyu would definitely tease them a bit, but Yu Qiuyu had just died miserably, so he wasn't in the mood to do this at all.
"Us three sisters had just rescued you all from Li Ku's hands, yet you've already forgotten? Heng, truly cruel and unscrupulous. "The purple-clothed woman was the first to speak. The other two also followed. "Heng, cruel and unscrupulous."
Ji Hyun-woon cupped his hands slightly. "The three of you should be Soundwave Manor's great disciples, right? We are indebted to you for saving us, words cannot express our gratitude. The Wei Imperial Palace owes the three of you a favor, and we can return it at any time. "
Soundwave Manor?
Huang Shaoyu's heart was moved. During these six years, even though he had been roaming around in the hunting grounds, he had also paid attention to the pugilistic world. The Soundwave Manor Lord undoing Li Ku's seal had spread like wildfire. The Hidden Dragon Lord was only famous in a small part of the Immortal World, and most people had heard of him being the Three Golden Flowers. After fulfilling Li Ku's wish, the Hidden Dragon Lord's name became known by everyone, and even the Nine Great Confucian orthodoxy went looking for him. Unfortunately, after fulfilling Li Ku's wish, the Hidden Dragon Lord disappeared without a trace. Even the Dao Court couldn't divine his whereabouts even after using a secret technique to steal heavenly secrets. As a result, the pugilistic world was filled with legends. The most popular one was that the Hidden Dragon Lord died of exhaustion after fulfilling Li Ku's wish. However, regardless of whether the Hidden Dragon Lord died or not, it didn't stop him from becoming a legend.
"So you're the Hidden Dragon Lord's great disciple. Forgive me for my rudeness, but I wonder where the old Lord is? I wish to thank him in person, or else I won't be able to rest easy after receiving such a great favor." Huang Shaoyu said this because he didn't believe the Three Golden Flowers' abilities. He wanted to ask the Hidden Dragon Lord to fulfill his wish of resurrecting Yu Qiuyu.
The Three Golden Flowers had roamed the pugilistic world for many years, so how could they not understand the hidden meaning behind Huang Shaoyu's words? The eldest sister, Zi 'er, sneered, "Since you don't believe that we saved you, then leave your life here."
The Three Golden Flowers had a tacit understanding, so they immediately spread out and surrounded Huang Shaoyu. Huang Shaoyu sensed danger. Judging from the aura, his scalp went numb, and he couldn't help but be shocked.
"Stop fooling around." Two elders appeared at the northeast entrance. One was sitting in a wooden wheelchair, and the other was pushed out by a slightly younger elder.
"Hmph, Master, this brat is looking down on us. Let us teach him a lesson and let him know our power!" The eldest sister, Zi 'er, said. The other two immediately chimed in, "Hmph, let him know our power!"
When Huang Shaoyu saw the elder, he immediately ran forward in delight and kowtowed, "Junior Huang Shaoyu pays his respects to the Hidden Dragon Lord. Please, Lord, save my pitiful younger brother. He has never had a good life since he was young, and he was often bullied by me. Although he was adopted by my father, he has never been loved by his biological parents. I once promised him that I would find his biological parents. If they abandoned Qiuyu because they had no choice, I will forgive them. If not, I will chop off their heads and give them to Qiuyu …"
"Cough cough cough." The Hidden Dragon Lord coughed and interrupted Huang Shaoyu, "Young friend, you think too highly of this old man. Birth, old age, sickness, and death are the laws of the Heavenly Dao. Nothing in the world can go against it. Resurrecting the dead is something that no one can do. Even if it's done, the person who resurrected will not be the same person as before. However, young friend Yu is not fated to die … "
Huang Shaoyu was already in despair, but when he heard the Hidden Dragon Lord's words suddenly change, he immediately knelt down at the feet of the Hidden Dragon Lord and cried, "Lord, please save my younger brother. Lord, please save my younger brother. I am willing to serve you until I die."
"Don't make a fool of yourself."
At this moment, another voice came from behind the door. When Huang Shaoyu heard this familiar tone, he suddenly looked over and saw Yu Qiuyu slowly walking out from inside. She still looked as cold as ice, and the words that came out of her mouth were still like ice knives that pierced straight into people's hearts. It was indeed Yu Qiuyu who was alive, and not a transparent ghost or something like that.
"Am I dreaming?" Huang Shaoyu subconsciously pinched his cheeks, and he only felt a wave of pain. "Qiuyu, you're not dead!" He cried and rushed forward, wanting to hug him, but Yu Qiuyu pressed his head down in disdain.
"I'm not dead." Yu Qiuyu looked at Huang Shaoyu's tearful appearance, and a trace of gentleness appeared on his cold and indifferent face, but it was quickly concealed and turned into a deep pain.
"What's going on? I clearly saw you …"
The Crouching Dragon Manor Lord smiled and recounted what had happened. It turned out that the Three Golden Flowers had really come to his rescue. They had used a type of divine power called 'Yin Yang Escape'. The principle of this divine power was to harmonize the Yin and Yang energy of a realm, causing them to achieve a special balance. The caster could then use the void as a medium to send the target away. When the three sisters arrived, Yu Qiuyu was defeated, and they just happened to send him away. From the outside, it looked like he had been reduced to ashes. Even Yu Qiuyu thought that he was dead for sure, and he even fooled Li Ku. The second time he passed, Li Ku discovered some clues, and he was immediately recognized. Fortunately, the thick city walls and the Dragon Emperor were there to stop him. However, the three sisters were still a bit too late, and Yu Qiuyu's wife was not saved.
Everyone looked at Yu Qiuyu, only to find that the latter had his eyes closed in pain. Human sorrow and joy were not connected. No matter how heartbroken he was, it couldn't be transmitted to others.
Ji Hyun-woon looked at the Hidden Dragon Lord thoughtfully, and said, "Whether the Lord took action or the three beauties took action, why did Soundwave Manor take such a huge risk? Even I have to admit that Li Ku's strength is extraordinary. Anyone who offends him should be prepared to have their entire family wiped out. "
Zi 'er continued, "Hmph, we want to kill Li Ku. We saved you because we want to work together with you."
"Kill Li Ku?" Ji Hyun-woon's brows jumped in surprise. "As far as I know, after Li Ku undid the seal in Soundwave Manor, he took you three as his disciples as a reward. How can a disciple kill their master? "
Zi 'er said angrily, "Even though he took us as disciples, he didn't teach us anything, only using some unorthodox methods to fool us. Who are we three sisters? How can we be bullied by Li Ku as he pleases? This time, we will let him know how powerful we are!"
Ji Hyun-woon had a vague feeling that things weren't that simple. He glanced at the unfathomable Hidden Dragon Lord, and said, "The Lord must have a plan, but forgive me for not being able to accompany you. I will repay you for saving my life in the future. "
"Why is that?" Huang Shaoyu asked anxiously. His mood completely changed when he learned that Yu Qiuyu didn't die.
Ji Hyun-woon said, "Your Greenwood Corps has Yan Li to take care of, but my subordinates don't. As a son, I can be willful once, but I definitely can't be willful forever. "With that, he swaggered off.
