Wang Ye smiled as he watched Hua Erniang and Feng Wuxi leave.
He asked telepathically, "How did it go?"
"With Sword Saint's help …"
"You don't have to do anything. I can handle it!"
As he spoke, Wang Ye seemed rather pleased with himself.
However, the unknown elite hiding in the dark did not respond to Wang Ye's telepathic message.
There was no other sound other than the sound of the wind.
Did he run away?!
Wang Ye's heart skipped a beat when he realized that no one was responding to him.
It was the nameless expert who had been hiding in the dark.
He actually took advantage of the Sword Saint's attack and ran away!?
What the f * ck …
Thinking of this, Wang Ye cursed in his heart.
He did not know what to say.
"Thank you, Senior Mu and Zhang Daozhang, for saving my life …"
Bai Yulin got up from the ground and bowed as Wang Ye cursed in his heart.
"Sigh, both of us are old friends of your father. It's reasonable for us to help you. You don't have to do this!"
Sword Saint said to Bai Yulin as he looked at him.
As he spoke, he had a calm expression on his face.
"No matter what, you saved my life. I'll remember it!"
Bai Yulin was still as humble as ever.
He turned to Wang Ye and said, "Also, I'd like to thank Shopkeeper Wang for saving my life!"
"Shopkeeper Wang saved your life?"
Sword Saint and Zhang Daoxuan asked when they heard Bai Yulin's words.
"That's right!"
Bai Yulin nodded when he heard that.
He took out the Heart Protection Mirror and said, "I was able to survive until now because of the Heart Protection Mirror and the armor that Shopkeeper Wang gave me …"
"If not for the armor, I would have died on the spot!"
As Bai Yulin spoke, he took out the cracked Heart Protection Mirror from his bosom.
Wang Ye's heart skipped a beat when he saw the Heart Protection Mirror.
The Heart Protection Mirror made of Frost Iron had been attacked by Hua Erniang more than once.
But now, it had only deformed and cracked.
Such forging skills were truly worthy of being the work of Qian Mang and his nephew.
"Shopkeeper Wang, please accept my bow!"
Just as Wang Ye was deep in thought, Bai Yulin spoke up.
At the same time, he tidied up his clothes and prepared to bow to Wang Ye.
"Hey, hey, hey …"
Seeing Bai Yulin's actions, Wang Ye said, "Young Master Bai, you don't have to do this …"
"I'm just doing my duty as a host and letting Young Master Bai experience the local customs of Jinling …"
"It's nothing. There's no need to thank me!"
Wang Ye said.
Although he said that there was no need for him to bow, he didn't.
Unknowingly, he straightened his body and had no intention of stopping him.
He allowed Bai Yulin to bow down to him.
The moment he saw Bai Yulin kowtowing to him, Wang Ye felt a sense of satisfaction in his heart.
The son of his sworn enemy bowed to him …
Was there anything more satisfying than this in the world?
Seeing how Wang Ye said no but made Bai Yulin kowtow, Sword Saint and Zhang Daoxuan shook their heads.
At the same time, they said, "Alright …"
"Since there's nothing else, we should head back …"
With that said, everyone nodded and headed to the inn together.
Just as they were about to head to the inn.
On a nearby rooftop, a figure appeared.
He pondered for a moment and said in a deep voice, "I've repaid the debt of gratitude in the past …"
"Fortunately, that money-grubber didn't find out …"
"Otherwise, this would be a big problem …"
With that said, the figure disappeared from the rooftop.
…
A moment later, outside Jinling City.
On an isolated island in the middle of Xuanwu Lake.
Feng Wuxi brought Hua Erniang and flew lightly, landing directly on the isolated island.
Hua Erniang's face was pale and her breathing was rapid.
She looked extremely weak.
"Sister Hua, are you alright?"
Feng Wuxi asked when he saw Hua Erniang in such a state.
"I'm fine …"
Hua Erniang shook her head. "It's just some sword energy. I'll be fine once I use my inner force to force it out …"
"Brother Feng, come and help me!"
Feng Wuxi nodded when he heard Hua Erniang's words.
He arrived behind her and rotated his arms. Abruptly, he channeled his energy and sent a palm strike towards Hua Er Niang's back.
Bang!
With a muffled sound, a gush of inner force entered Hua Erniang's body.
Hua Erniang used her inner force to guide the inner force into her body.
After a while, her eyes widened and she opened her mouth abruptly.
Puff!
In an instant, a mouthful of blood splattered out.
A pure white sword energy shot out along with the blood splatter and sliced the large green rock in front of her into two.
"This Sword Saint's power is actually so tyrannical!"
After forcing the sword energy out of her body, Hua Erniang's face regained some color. "Use the Fire Dragon Bullet to distract the Black Lotus Sage and his subordinates!
"Tell Third Brother to get ready!"
!!!
Feng Wuxi's expression changed when he heard that.
He looked at Hua Erniang and said, "Sister Hua Erniang, what are you doing?!
"Third Brother is in charge of the rescue and retreat. If we go all out, who's going to rescue us?!"
"Retreat?!"
Hearing Feng Wuxi's words, Hua Erniang said, "Bai Yulin's arrival in Jinling is a rare opportunity!"
"As long as we capture him, White Mirrojade will have to think twice before making any big moves!
"This is an important matter. We have to stake everything on this!"
As she spoke, a ruthless expression appeared on Hua Erniang's face.
"But I still think we should be careful …"
Feng Wuxi said with a hint of hesitation in his voice.
"What's there to be careful about?"
Before Feng Wuxi could finish, Hua Erniang said, "This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. What's there to be careful about?!"
Her voice was loud and carried a hint of urgency.
At the same time, she grabbed Feng Wuxi and said, "You saw it for yourself. If Sword Saint and Zhang Daoxuan weren't here, Bai Yulin would be captured easily!
"If Third Brother is here, the two of you can hold back Sword Saint and Zhang Daoxuan. Bai Yulin will be captured easily!
"If we have Bai Yulin, we can succeed!"
At this point, Hua Er 'niang's eyes were wide open. Her eyes were bloodshot.
At a glance, it was a sign of anger surging up!
Feng Wuxi wanted to say something when he saw Hua Erniang's expression.
He wanted to say something, but when he saw Hua Erniang's eyes, he chose to shut up.
He took out a wooden tube with a dragon's head.
He aimed it at the sky and pulled!
Bang!
With a muffled sound, a fireball suddenly shot out and blasted towards the sky.
The moment the fireball flew into the air, it suddenly exploded, and a blood cloud pattern instantly appeared in the air.
Feng Wuxi's right eyelid twitched when he saw the blood cloud pattern floating in the sky.
For some reason, the blood cloud pattern in front of him gave him an ominous premonition.
