Chapter 1262: Lin Family, Revenge (9)
Gu Ruoyun does not know why but when she looked at Wen Luo, she could not help but be reminded of the Immortal Realm at West Spirit Mainland.
The Wen family and the Immortal Realm share many similarities.
Gu Ruoyun burst into laughter but her smile was as clear and cold as always. Her eyes held a faint glimmer of mockery as she said, "Why had cultivators from the First City attacked others on their own? I didn’t see the Wen family butting in at that time! Yet, you would come along and act as the law when I want to kill someone?"
"How would you know that the Wen family 1 had turned a blind eye to this?" A fierce light flashed in Wen Luo’s eyes as he stared at Gu Ruoyun ferociously. "If the Lin family had not been under the First City’s authority, do you think that you’d still be alive? You would have visited the Yellow Spings 2 long ago! Instead, you have no sense of gratefulness and have caused a disturbance in front of us, the First City’s Great Protectors! As long as I’m here today, don’t even think about laying a finger on the Lin family!"
"Oh, really?"
Gu Ruoyun raised her brows as she waved the sword in her hand. The Lin family members in front of her did not even have time to react before they all fell into their own pool of blood 3 .
"You..." Wen Luo’s eyes were spitting fire as he glared angrily at Gu Ruoyun. "You’re really going to disregard the First City’s authority?"
This damned girl, she had the audacity to kill others in front of me! She clearly doesn’t place any importance on me!
Gu Ruoyun laughed icily. "This strike is for the ones who had been harmed by the Lin family! You claimed that the First City had used its rules to limit the Lin family but how do you explain the massacre at Wind Fall village? I had promised those innocent villagers that I would come to the Lin family and avenge them someday. It’s useless for anyone to stop me!"
"Hahaha!"
Wen Luo laughed in spite of his rage. His features have turned ashen. "What a smug and egotistical little girl. I can’t let you be when you ignore the First City’s rules like that. Prepare for death!"
Boom!
A murderous air rose from within his body before he gathered an infinite amount of power in the palm of his hand and slammed it towards Gu Ruoyun. There was a murderous look in his eyes and that made the temperature in their surroundings plummet to an eerie chill.
Slam!
A flash of white robes had appeared in front of Gu Ruoyun.
The white-robed woman raised her hand and blocked Wen Luo’s attack. Both parties then stumbled back with a crash.
"You’re trying to kill my daughter in front of me. All of you from the First City, when have you become ignorant of my presence?" Dongfang Yu lifted her icy cold eyes and her body was enveloped by a cold and aloof aura. "Besides, my daughter is right! It’s much too obvious that the First City is protecting the Lin family! They’ve murdered so many innocent people and they should die. How is it a sin for us to destroy the Lin family?"
Grand Lord Hong Lian did not say a word but his cold and grim eyes filled with a murderous aura as well. He pulled Gu Ruoyun into his arms as his gaze became as swift and sharp as a keen longsword slashing imaginary foes.
"Yun’er, stay here, leave the rest to us."
He then slowly released the woman in his arms and walked to Dongfang Yu’s side. His cold and grim eyes stared at the white-robed man before him and his voice carried a murderous intent as he said, "Back then, where was the First City’s authority when the Lin family had tried to kill me? Where were you when the Lin family tried to kill my daughter? When the Lin family had attacked and killed those villagers, I didn’t see anyone standing up to protect those innocent people. Now, you want to insist that we abide by the First City’s rules?"
Wen Luo gently narrowed his eyes. He knew that the Lin family had been unreasonable in this matter. Back then, if he had not shielded the Lin family, the First City would have severely punished the Lin family.
