Chapter 664 - This Stupid Meatball
Hearing the orders of the city lord, the surrounding soldiers hesitantly approached as they felt in their hearts that something wasn’t quite right. These three people before them were truly too calm that it was illogical. Where was there anyone who would be so incomparably calm when they were so heavily surrounded, about to be arrested? It seemed like there was a problem here, and it was not a small problem.
Ling Chuxi pouted and shook her head. Whipping out the Luo Chen Sword, its silver blade began emitting a dazzling ray of light after it was infused with Ling Chuxi’s True Qi.
Ling Chuxi brought her sword down in a slashing motion as True Qi emitted from her body. Sparks flew across the bluestone wall that had stood erect for hundreds and thousands of years, leaving behind a long sword mark carved into the wall.
Debris flew and the qi from her sword scattered all over. The soldiers who were about to apprehend them were shaken till they all fell off their horses and were sprawled on the ground, rolling about in pain. The soldiers looked miserable and did not regain their senses for quite some time. They were shocked and terrified in their hearts. They all knew that the situation was indeed terrible for them and the unease in their hearts had become a reality.
The city lord’s little yellow bean eyes were narrowed into slits as his tongue fell out and an expression of shock overcame his face. The situation before him had developed in away that was totally different from his expectations!
“You, you, you...” sputtered the city lord as he pointed at Ling Chuxi, unable to spit out the words. In the end, he just miserably shrieked and cried out for help, “Mister Ren, help, help!”
Putting his short and stubby figure aside, his lung capacity was quite well developed. His miserable wail was so shocking that the earth shook and the entire Gu Yang City could hear him loud and clear. Truly shocking enough to make the heavens and earth shake and make ghosts and deities cry!
“Mister Ren? You mean Ren Youran?” asked Ling Chuxi. She was originally planning to take action but stopped after hearing his wails.
Very quickly, a black figure flew out to join them. His large sleeves floated in the wind without catching any dirt and there was still the air of a strong expert cultivator about him. Without needing to take a closer look, Ling Chuxi could also recognize that this was indeed Ren Youran.
“What happened?” asked Ren Youran, raising his head and putting on an act, turning his head around to patrol his surroundings. But then he saw Ling Chuxi looking at him mockingly at a glance.
Immediately, Ren Youran’s proud head sunk back down and his shoulders immediately shrugged as his entire body became tense as he looked at Ling Chuxi with a gaze as if he were looking at a ghost. He even rubbed his eyes hard and blinked to ensure he wasn’t seeing things.
“It’s you? You aren’t dead?” asked Ren Youran’s trembling voice directly. They had personally witnessed how powerful the barrier at Little Silver Ancient Mountain was. It was one that could even turn a huge ten thousand jun stone into dust instantly under its terrifying power. How did she manage to escape it? Could it be that her cultivation was truly so strong until such a level?
If that were so, it was something that was too terrifying.
Thinking about this, Ren Youran ruthlessly glared at the city lord. This stupid meatball, why didn’t he shout out more details? If he had known earlier on that it was Ling Chuxi at the gates, even if he had to cover his ears and pretend he couldn’t hear the city lord’s cries and be a coward, he still wouldn’t dare to have shown himself.
“Why? This is unexpected, right?” said Ling Chuxi as she gave a faint smile. “Ren Youran, I never thought that you would actually still dare to return to Nan Xia. Could it be that now that your age is catching up with you, you want to return to your roots?” As she said the last part of her sentence, Ling Chuxi’s smile turned cold, and a murderous intent flashed in her eyes.
This scum who betrayed his country to seek glory for himself. Encountering him today was just right. She could take revenge on him for his past misdeeds, and she could also be considered to be ridding Nan Xia Country of a great harm.
“Ling Chuxi, do you really think that you can kill me? Back then, if it were not for the fact that I remembered that you were a fellow Nan Xia countrymen and left you a road out due to my pitying you, do you think you would still be alive today?” Seeing the murderous intent in Ling Chuxi’s eyes, Ren Youran’s heart dropped as he began shouting loudly in his own defense, clearly demonstrating that although he appeared tough and tyrannical on the outside, he was weak and timid on the inside.
