The power of Yue Ru's Musical Assassination Technique was extraordinary as well. Ordinary people would not be able to withstand it. However, compared to Bai Feng, Yue Ru's Musical Assassination Technique was like comparing a child to an adult.
A quarter of an hour later, the two middle-aged men lay motionless, completely dead.
The ten people on the ground had turned into dried corpses. It was a frightening sight to behold. Yue Ru was the only one among the women who saw this. Her expression turned grim and she felt uncomfortable in the pit of her stomach.
Zhang Junrui spat out a mouthful of blood with a "wa" as his expression turned paler by the minute. He cupped his fists and spoke in a deep voice, "Young Miss Bai, it's really a misunderstanding!"
"Whether it's a misunderstanding or not, I'll kill you first."
"All the disciples of the Blazing Sun Hall know that I have come to the Immortal Phoenix Restaurant."
"Then I'll say that you've already left. You went after the people of the Blood-robed Cult and I don't know where you are."
"Miss Bai, how have I offended you? Why do you want to kill me?"
"Do you think I don't know that you've been scheming against the Phoenix Goddess Brothel?"
"It's just a small fight. Is there a need to force me to the point of death?"
"Hmph, you're bent on killing me. So what?"
"Of course not!"
"You still want to lie now?" Bai Feng sneered, "But lying is useless. No one can save you today!"
"The Flaming Sun Sect and the Tian Luo Sect should join forces to fight against the White Tiger Sect. How can we kill each other!" Zhang Junrui said, "Miss Bai Feng, don't worry. After you let me go, let Miss Yue Ru marry my disciple. What do you think?"
"Hehe …" Bai Feng sneered.
Yue Ru hesitated for a moment before she looked at Bai Feng.
Bai Feng rolled her eyes at her and scoffed, "Do you really want to marry Lu Xiaofeng?"
Yue Ru shook her head slowly.
Although she liked Lu Xiaofeng, she had not reached the point where she would sacrifice herself for him. She still had her own rationality. After all, she was a disciple of the Tian Luo Sect while he was a disciple of the Flaming Sun Sect. It was impossible for them to truly get married.
Moreover, through this incident, she knew that Lu Xiaofeng wasn't someone worth entrusting. She wasn't as important as the Blazing Sun Clan, and he would definitely sacrifice her for the clan.
Bai Feng scoffed. "That's it then!"
"But …" Yue Ru said, "Do we really want to kill him? Won't it provoke the Flaming Sun Sect's revenge? "
Bai Fengdao rolled her eyes at her.
Yue Ru loved Lu Xiaofeng's master, so she felt that she could not allow her master to kill Lu Xiaofeng's master. Otherwise, the two families would become enemies and she and Lu Xiaofeng would become mortal enemies. If that happened, they would have to fight each other to the death. It was hard to imagine what that would look like.
Chu Li coughed softly and said, "Why don't we spare his life?"
Bai Feng turned to look at him.
Chu Li replied, "Killing him will put Miss Yue Ru in a difficult position."
"This girl only thinks about love affairs!" Bai Feng shook her head.
Chu Li smiled. "Lu Xiaofeng likes Miss Yue Ru. Zhang Junrui won't hurt you, Senior Bai."
Bai Feng furrowed her brows and snorted. "That brat might not necessarily care about love!"
Chu Li said, "The Flaming Sun Sect isn't a pushover either. If you really kill him, how can they not find out? It'll be bad if the two sects turn against each other, so it's better to spare his life for now."
He had actually seen a completely different thought process in Zhang Junrui's mind.
Zhang Junrui didn't want to kill Bai Feng. On the contrary, he liked and admired Bai Feng, but he'd forcefully suppressed this feeling in the deepest part of his heart and never revealed it. Instead, he'd always gone against Bai Feng.
Although Bai Feng was sharp, she did not notice Zhang Junrui's thoughts. She only thought that he wanted to kill her.
Chu Li shook his head and sighed. Zhang Junrui was really good at enduring. If he really died here, it would be such an injustice. Chu Li could not bear to see him die here, so he pleaded for mercy on his behalf.
"… Alright, since you've spoken, I'll spare him for now!" Bai Feng scoffed and pressed her hands on the strings of the guzheng. The sound of the guzheng stopped abruptly.
Zhang Junrui spat out a mouthful of blood and fell limply to the ground. He smiled bitterly.
Chu Li said, "Senior Bai, based on my observation, Zhang Junrui likes you. I'll remove the formation first and take my leave!"
After he said that, he turned around and left.
Bai Feng was dumbfounded. Then, she burst into laughter. She thought that he really knew how to joke.
Chu Li channeled his energy into both of his hands and stared into the void. Suddenly, he reached out and scooped a Jade Lion out of thin air. The other seven jade artifacts also slowly appeared out of thin air and were summoned by him one by one.
He kept the jade artifacts in his pocket, turned around, and left the Phoenix Goddess Brothel.
Yue Ru looked at him and smiled. Then, she looked at Bai Feng and whispered, "Master, Young Master Zhao said …"
"Don't talk nonsense!" Bai Feng glared at her and scoffed. "He's joking."
"I'm afraid Young Master Zhao wouldn't joke about something like this."
"Then treat it as a joke!" Bai Feng said impatiently. "I'm already so old!"
Yue Ru looked at her face and shook her head.
Master looked younger and prettier than Yue Ru, so it was normal for men to like her. However, Master was stubborn and thought that she was old.
Bai Feng glided over to Zhang Junrui and scoffed. "How is it? Do you know how powerful I am now?"
Zhang Junrui's gaze moved up from her boots. Then, he slowly got up and smiled bitterly. "Miss Bai, why did you do this?"
"You're sneaking around. I'm sure you're up to no good!" Bai Feng said coldly. "I'm already being merciful by not killing you when you're trying to take advantage of someone like you. If this happens again, I'll definitely kill you!"
Zhang Junrui sighed. "I really wanted to come and help."
"Thank you for your kindness, but there's no need for that." Bai Feng scoffed and pointed at the ten disciples of the Church of the Bloody Garment on the ground. "It's that easy to take care of them!"
Zhang Junrui smiled bitterly and sighed. He nodded. "Yes, I've been meddlesome. It seems like the Phoenix Goddess Brothel has been hiding its strength. There's an expert here!"
He did not expect the Phoenix Goddess Brothel to be prepared and so was the Tian Luo Sect. They had secretly sent a formation master over. There was nothing more to be said. The disciples of the Church of the Bloody Garment did not die unjustly. Bai Feng was indeed unpredictable. Not only did she hide the fact that there was a formation master, she even spread the news that she was going to ask for help. She acted nervous, but she managed to fool everyone!
Bai Feng said, "Hurry up and get lost. The Phoenix Goddess Brothel doesn't welcome you. Don't ever come here again!"
"Sigh …" Zhang Junrui shook his head.
Bai Feng turned around and glided upstairs. Yue Ru followed behind her and curtsied at Zhang Junrui before she went upstairs.
Zhang Junrui smiled and nodded.
He felt awkward. He had embarrassed himself in front of a junior and had been beaten up so badly by Bai Feng.
However, there was a hint of joy in his heart. If he had been beaten up like this by someone else, he would have been furious and swore to avenge himself. However, he was not angry when Bai Feng beat him up. Instead, he enjoyed it and wished that Bai Feng could keep torturing him like this.
"Master?" A sudden shout was heard. Lu Xiaofeng strode into the house. His expression changed when he saw that Zhang Junrui was injured.
Zhang Junrui waved his hand. "I'm fine."
"Where are the people from the Church of the Bloody Garment?" Lu Xiaofeng asked.
Zhang Junrui shook his head. "They're dead."
"Master, you didn't want to come!" Lu Xiaofeng grumbled. "Why are you here again?"
"We're brothers after all. It was too dangerous, so it was only right for me to lend a hand," Zhang Junrui said.
