Chapter 348: Chapter 349: The Return of Yan Jin’s Domineering Aura (Part 2)
“Yan Jin, you’re back?” Mu Ruyue withdrew her gaze and looked up at the man standing in the void.
The man lowered his deep black pupils, settling on the beautiful visage of the young girl. His figure flashed, and he descended from the void. “Girl, I told you, when my strength reaches a certain level, I would come back. However, what do you plan to do with this person?”
What to do with him? Truthfully, Mu Ruyue hadn’t made up her mind yet.
“What happened here? Why is it so lively?”
Unexpectedly, an old silhouette came from the side.
“And it’s not just humans that are lively. Even a Demon Beast has come to join the fun?”
Demon Beast? The crowd was somewhat shocked as they raised their eyes toward the handsome and cold-faced man. This powerful man was actually a Demon Beast? No wonder he was so strong.
Yan Jin snorted coldly and cast his gaze toward the person approaching.
At the same time, Mu Ruyue also looked over…
The elder approached in white robes, walking with grace, his aged face donned with a cold smile and his eyes clearly containing a chill. The woman walking beside him was recognized by Mu Ruyue in a glance—it was the woman she had met at the Martial Hall when looking for Wuchen, named Lin Ruoying.
Why were they here?
Mu Ruyue’s eyes slightly narrowed, unswervingly watching the two people as they entered.
Zi Qianjing’s toe tapped lightly and he leaped in front of Mu Ruyue, the gaze he cast at Lin Ruoying tinged with a trace of coldness.
No son would have a good impression of a woman intent on destroying his family. Back when this woman spoke, she acted as if she had already become his father’s wife, completely assuming the role of the lady of the house.
He didn’t know what she was here for now.
Yan Jin and Zi Qianjing stood on either side of Mu Ruyue, vigilantly watching the two approaching people, ready to deal with them instantly should there be any movement.
“Are you a Disciple of the Alchemy Hall?” The elder’s lips curled into a cold smile. “The Disciples of the Alchemy Hall sure are impressive. Not only do they cause trouble in my Martial Hall, but they also injure our sparring field manager. I wonder who gave you such courage?”
As he spoke, he glanced at Mo Li, lying on the ground, and sighed helplessly.
The hit just now had nearly killed him, and even if it hadn’t, he was almost certainly crippled. From now on, Mo Li was utterly useless…
“He was the one who disregarded the rules and struck first. Yue’er was merely acting in self-defense!” Yao Yunqing’s expression changed, thinking first there was Liu Li, then Mo Li came along, and now having dealt with Mo Li, this old fellow had been summoned.
Are all people from the Martial Hall this shameless?
In that moment, Yao Yunqing seemed to forget she was also a part of the Martial Hall.
“Are you that newly advanced genius Disciple of the Martial Hall?” The elder narrowed his eyes and said coldly, “Don’t forget that you belong to the Martial Hall!”
Yao Yunqing snorted, “So what if I am?”
“Heh heh, the girl’s got spirit, which suits this old man’s taste. I admit Mo Li was wrong, but even so, it should be up to me to decide his punishment, not to nearly cripple him!”
The elder chuckled coldly and then directed his gaze toward Yan Jin.
“A Demon Beast capable of taking human form is indeed rare. Are you not going to explain the offense you have committed?”
“Explain?” Yan Jin laughed coldly. “Explain what exactly? That mongrel wanted to hurt my master, so I protected her. I accidentally used too much force; somehow, he couldn’t take a hit, and ended up like this. All in all, it’s because his strength was too weak. What does it have to do with me?”
