Chapter 1143 Return to Yaochi
Chapter 1143 Return to Yaochi
The smoke and dust that originally filled the room seemed to be frightened by these two powerful beings and moved away.
At this time, Hua Mingrui was struggling to stand up from the ground. His body was trembling slightly due to the severe pain, and his originally handsome face was now severely burned and unrecognizable, which was horrible to look at.
However, despite suffering such a severe blow, Hua Mingrui's eyes were still fixed on the front, burning with endless hatred and anger.
"Who is it? Who did it!" A hoarse and terrifying roar came from his throat, and the sound echoed in the room as if it was going to break through the roof.
When the two powerful men in the Daluo Golden Immortal Realm heard Hua Mingrui's roar, their faces instantly became extremely gloomy, as if the entire sky had collapsed at this moment.
They knew Hua Mingrui's position in the sect and the power he represented. Now Hua Mingrui was seriously injured under their protection. How could they explain this to the sect leader?
Thinking of this, a chill ran down their spines.
So, they released their terrifying spiritual consciousness without hesitation, like an invisible net, quickly covering the entire Wanhuafang.
The power of this divine consciousness is extremely strong. Wherever it passes, any slight movement cannot escape its perception.
At this moment, the madam was also frightened by this sudden change. She hurried over to see what had happened.
When she rushed into the room and saw Hua Mingrui's miserable appearance, her face also instantly turned as pale as paper, completely bloodless.
However, in this chaos, Lu Chen disappeared quietly like a ghost, as if he had never appeared in Wanhuafang.
Although this operation did not succeed in killing Hua Mingrui as expected, Lu Chen was still satisfied with his performance.
After all, not only did he inflict severe damage on Hua Mingrui, making it difficult for the boy to recover in a short period of time, but he also cleverly took advantage of the chaos at the scene and successfully escaped.
Lu Chen thought that after all this trouble, Hua Mingrui would definitely not have time to take care of his own injuries, let alone consider any marriage.
In this way, a big stone in Lu Chen's heart finally fell to the ground.
Thinking of this, Lu Chen felt happy and his steps became lighter.
He couldn't wait to tell Zixuan the good news, and he also planned to take her out of the Yaochi Holy Land, away from this place of trouble...
A few hours later.
The night was like a dream. On Yayuan Peak, Zixuan's boudoir was still brightly lit.
In the center of the room, Zi Xuan sat cross-legged like a fairy, her body surrounded by a faint green light, which was like a soft gauze, wrapping her tightly.
She closed her eyes and practiced with full concentration, as if she had become one with the power of heaven and earth. Every slight breath she took echoed with the surrounding environment.
At this quiet moment, a strange smell suddenly appeared in the room. This smell was like ripples on a calm lake. Although subtle, it could not escape Zixuan's keen perception.
Zixuan's heart suddenly tightened, like a disturbed string of a musical instrument. She immediately stopped practicing, quickly opened her eyes, stood up, and looked around vigilantly.
Her eyes were as fast as lightning, quickly scanning every corner of the room, not missing any suspicious signs.
Just as she was about to make a move, a familiar figure appeared in the room silently like a ghost.
The person who came was Lu Chen. His figure was like a ghost, making it difficult to notice his arrival.
However, Zi Xuan's reaction was extremely quick. Almost at the same moment, she waved out a green light without hesitation. This light was like an emerald green arrow, shooting straight towards Lu Chen, obviously trying to repel this unknown invader.
Seeing this, Lu Chen was shocked and shouted loudly: "Xuan'er, it's me, don't do it!"
There was a hint of anxiety in his voice, fearing that Zixuan might hurt herself by accident.
When Zi Xuan heard the voice, she turned around abruptly and took a closer look. It was actually Lu Chen! She was startled and quickly stopped the attack. The arrow condensed from the immortal essence immediately turned into nothingness and then dissipated in the air.
Lu Chen was seen walking towards Zixuan slowly with a smile on his face.
Seeing this, Zi Xuan also showed a gentle smile on her face and said softly: "Brother Lu, why is it you?"
Lu Chen walked up to Zi Xuan and stopped. The two looked at each other and were speechless for a moment.
After a while, Lu Chen spoke first to break the silence: "Xuan'er, your sect leader didn't make things difficult for you after I left, did he?"
Zi Xuan nodded and responded with a smile: "No, the sect master didn't find any trace of you and left directly."
After hearing this, Lu Chen felt relieved. After that, the two exchanged a few more pleasantries, and Lu Chen told him the whole story of how he assassinated Hua Mingrui.
“I went to assassinate Hua Mingrui this afternoon. I thought I could kill him in one fell swoop, but I didn’t expect that he had a protective magic weapon on him. I failed in the end.
However, I also succeeded in causing him serious injuries, and I don't think he will be able to recover in a short period of time."
Zi Xuan listened to Lu Chen's story quietly. When she heard that Hua Mingrui was only seriously injured and not dead, she couldn't help feeling disappointed.
However, she quickly concealed this emotion, still with a gentle smile on her face, and comforted Lu Chen:
"It's okay, Brother Lu, you've done a good job. Although you didn't succeed this time, you've dealt him a heavy blow. Moreover, this failure doesn't mean failure forever, we still have many opportunities.
More importantly, you come back safe and sound, which is more important to me than anything else.”
Lu Chen listened to the heartwarming words, smiled slightly, and looked at Zixuan gratefully: "Thank you, Zixuan. I feel much more at ease with you around."
Upon hearing this, Zi Xuan snuggled obediently in Lu Chen's arms. At this moment, Lu Chen felt the long-lost warmth.
Just when he proposed again to take Zixuan away from Yaochi.
Suddenly, as if time had stopped, the air in the room became heavy.
Two figures appeared in the room without any warning, as if they had teleported.
One of them was Yao Chi Sect leader Murong Qiuyue. She had a graceful figure and pretty face, and was dressed in a white dress as white as snow, like a fairy from heaven.
Standing next to her was a white-haired old man with a hunched body and wrinkled face, but his eyes were as sharp as an eagle's, revealing a chilling aura...
