Villain: After Truncating the Heroine, the Protagonist Collapses

115: Phoenix clouds spread across thousands of miles, Black Horn Region!”There won’t be any more danger on the way back from now on, so you can rest assured!”

”Grandpa, you can’t lie to me!”

Bai Yanyan puffed out her cheeks and continued to ask.

”Definitely!”

Bai Yuanqi had no choice but to give his assurance.

”If anything happens to Sect Master Martial Nephew, you Little Girl can come find this old man, how about that?”

”Then, Grandpa, do you swear?”

”Alright, I swear!”

His granddaughter hadn’t even married yet, but her elbow was already bending outwards to such an extent.

Bai Yuanqi’s heart was filled with bitter smiles.

But he also increasingly favored the marriage between his granddaughter, Bai Yanyan, and Yang Yucheng, and even had more thoughts of bringing them together.

As for those Righteous Path forces... a cold glint flashed in Bai Yuanqi’s eyes.

The Third Master, a Sword Dao Expert of the Late Stage Spirit Emperor stage, was already the limit of what had been dispatched this time.

If it happened again, their Fengyun Sect wasn’t to be trifled with... ”So that Revered Master knows this wasn’t done by your disciple!”

Also in the Fengyun Sect!

However, it was on another mountain peak.

Upon learning of the matter, Zhao Qingrou proactively came to this verdant bamboo forest to frankly inform his Revered Master, the Second Elder of the Fengyun Sect.

However!

The verdant bamboo forest before him did not respond to his explanation!

Knowing that Revered Master didn’t care about this matter, Zhao Qingrou shook his head with a wry smile.

He turned and left the place.

Taking a step, he returned to his courtyard, his own territory.

Zhao Qingrou’s eyes held three parts of amusement.

”The assassination attempt was utterly foolish! This Third Elder is truly a muddle-headed fellow!”

”The position of Fengyun Sect Leader is not the path I, Zhao Qingrou, chose, but if I can’t even surpass Yang Yucheng in the territory below the Upper Three Sects, how can I display my grandeur within the Upper Three Sects?”

As he spoke!

Zhao Qingrou’s smile faded, and his expression became much more serious in an instant.

”This is the path I chose! Revered Master!”

”The Prodigy’s path that belongs to me, Zhao Qingrou!”

Zhao Qingrou also had three parts of arrogance and pride in his heart!

...”Lord Hall Revered Master, he should be injured, right?”

Inside the spirit boat, within the golden Formation, Zhang Qianchou came before Sixth Elder Xu Cheng and asked softly.

His eyes fell upon Li Huanhuan, who had once again become a prisoner, carrying a hint of pity.

This woman was originally doing well.

As a maid serving Yang Yucheng, the Lord Hall Revered Master of the Ninth Hall, her future was bright and promising.

Unfortunately, she was blinded by greed, shamelessly and ignorantly trying to test Yang Yucheng, and her current predicament was well-deserved.

At this moment, Zhang Qianchou had completely forgotten.

Previously!

When he first met Yang Yucheng, he also had the same thoughts, filled with sighs of emotion.

”What?”

Xu Cheng’s eyes showed a playful smile, and he chuckled softly, ”Could it be that our Ninth Hall’s Prodigy now has plans to take advantage? When the clam and the snipe fight, the fisherman benefits?”

”Hahahahaha!”

Zhang Qianchou put his hands on his hips and laughed heartily, ”I wouldn’t dare! Lord Hall Revered Master’s Divine Might is unmatched, having achieved a Breakthrough to the Spirit Emperor Realm, invincible among peers, even the Sword Dao Expert of the Northern Region, the Third Master, dual supremacy of book and sword, met such an end!”

”I, Zhang Qianchou, still have self-awareness!”

But he!

Although he said so, including Zhang Qianchou, as well as Sixth Elder Xu Cheng next to him and the other Divine Phoenix Guard members on this spirit boat.

Each of them occasionally cast their gaze and sight towards the cabin and room.

Although Yang Yucheng’s combat record was impressive and his strength formidable, he had fought a life-and-death battle with that Sword Dao Expert, dual supremacy of book and sword.

The opponent died!

Could Yang Yucheng’s situation be much better?

They didn’t say it openly, but they had many worries in their hearts.

”Fortunately, now!”

Sixth Elder Xu Cheng looked at the surrounding scenery, feeling a bit relieved, ”We are only a thousand li from the Fengyun Sect, and we have already arrived at the Black Horn Domain. Once we pass here, the road ahead is clear!”

”Mm-hmm!”

Zhang Qianchou nodded in agreement upon hearing this.

Inside the room, Yang Yucheng’s body completed its grand circulation.

He let out a long breath.

Only then.

His internal injuries were completely suppressed, and the backlash from the secret technique, including the aggravated injuries caused by the previous earth-shattering battle, finally eased.

Unlike before, when his body was faintly aching all over.

”Fortunately, I have this god-communicating wood, otherwise, my injuries wouldn’t have recovered so quickly!”

Yang Yucheng sensed the sword marks left in his body, speaking in his heart!

The god-communicating wood had now been completely refined by him.

Although it was a top-grade spirit treasure, it wouldn’t give birth to an artifact spirit if it didn’t reach the Dao Artifact level, so whoever obtained it became its owner!

In addition, the god-communicating wood had the effect of calming the mind, speeding up Yang Yucheng’s injury recovery by three points, which was why he was able to stabilize his injuries to their current state after these few days.

So that they wouldn’t continue to worsen!

Yang Yucheng left the room.

He looked down!

Gazing at the scenery below the hundred zhang spirit boat.

Yang Yucheng couldn’t help but frown, ”So quickly, we’ve arrived at the Black Horn Domain?”

The Black Horn Domain was a chaotic area near the Fengyun Sect, and also the white glove most favored by many high-ranking officials within the Sect.

Some matters were inconvenient for them to handle directly, so using people from the Black Horn Domain allowed them to save both Face and reputation, killing two birds with one stone.

In the past, Yang Yucheng had visited it many times.

There were also people from the Ninth Hall operating here, but today... ”Sixth Elder!”

Yang Yucheng closed his eyes, and the Formation slightly receded.

Feeling the howling winds from high above, Yang Yucheng continued, ”Do you think anyone in this Black Horn Domain will make a move on us?”

”Probably not!”

To this question, Xu Cheng replied with a smile without hesitation.

”Sect Master Martial Nephew’s prestige is astonishing; even that Sword Dao Expert, dual supremacy of book and sword, died tragically at your hands, Sect Master Martial Nephew. Others should not be so foolish.”

”Is that so?”

Yang Yucheng murmured softly, then added, ”But after all, profit moves people’s hearts!”

Upon hearing this, Sixth Elder Xu Cheng’s expression became solemn.

He once again looked down at the Black Horn Domain below.

This time.

Sixth Elder Xu Cheng’s attitude was much more serious, and he couldn’t help but wonder, ”Will someone truly defy the world’s disapproval and act here?”

In his heart, if no Spirit Emperor Expert came, so be it.

If they did.

That would be openly destroying the unwritten rules between major Sects, and even Demonic Path Sects would suffer the same fate.

Righteous Path and Demonic Path were irreconcilable, but some things were common between them!

But for some reason!

Sixth Elder Xu Cheng’s gaze lingered on Yang Yucheng, and he gradually realized the terrifying aspect of his Sect Master Martial Nephew.

If it were an opposing Sect, there might indeed be a possibility that they would disregard these hidden unwritten rules and make a move again.
