75: Contact was made
Chu Yuan realized that things were indeed a bit difficult right now; a powerful dragon still cannot suppress a local serpent...
"Impersonating members of the great Zhenwu Bureau is a heinous crime! I sentence you... to death!" Wenxuan Lingtai spoke. Ono, who had been standing still, shifted his figure again and lunged straight at them!
He did not choose to attack the seemingly frail Chu Yuan first, but instead chose Tian Tian.
In Ono's intuition, that youth looked like he would fall over with a gentle push... yet he gave him an incomparably dangerous feeling!
Instead, this girl, although her aura was powerful, had clear eyes and probably lacked combat experience...
Tian Tian's expression was solemn as she raised her blade to block; the moment the two blades met, sparks flew! A powerful recoil force surged, making Tian Tian's palms go numb!
Her heart couldn't help but sink; Ono was also an Inner Breath Realm Martial Artist!
Moreover, the opponent's Inner Breath was stronger than hers, and his combat experience was greater!
After just one exchange, Tian Tian knew that she would not be Ono's match; should she... run?
She glanced at Chu Yuan from the corner of her eye, only to see Chu Yuan standing in place with his arms crossed, his expression calm, as if nothing had happened;
If anyone else had struck this pose, Tian Tian would only have cursed him for putting on airs in her heart;
But if it was Chu Yuan... Tian Tian's heart immediately settled. He could even deal with Tong Han, so what about this minor situation before her?
So, she stopped being distracted and focused on the battle...
"Trash! Finish it quickly; don't waste my time!" After watching for a moment, Wenxuan Lingtai became impatient and urged him.
Ono did not answer, but responded with actual action!
His offensive became increasingly violent; he attacked without defending, adopting a tactic of exchanging injuries for injuries!
Soon, Tian Tian's situation became precarious, and two wounds appeared on her chest and abdomen...
"It's over!" Ono said in Great Qin language;
The long blade in his hand went straight for Tian Tian's slender, fair neck, yet there was a hint of regret in his eyes.
Reaching the Inner Breath Realm at this age... in Great Qin, she could be considered a Genius, right?
In fact, he already understood that even if these two were not from the Zhenwu Bureau, they should at least be from Great Qin;
It was just that in Chi County, the Wenxuan Family still had the final say...
Feeling the approach of death's aura, Tian Tian gritted her teeth, a trace of determination flashing in her eyes;
Then, without changing her blade's momentum, she still stabbed towards Ono's heart!
If she died here... then dying here was fine; Chu Yuan would definitely avenge her!
"Stop! Otherwise, I will slaughter him!"
"Stop! Stop!!"
Two voices rang out simultaneously; the former carried killing intent, while the latter was somewhat panicked;
Ono was stunned and hurriedly changed his move, slashing the blade that was originally aimed at Tian Tian's neck to her side instead!
The Saber Qi extended out, leaving a long, deep slash mark on the ground;
But Tian Tian would not stop; she took the opportunity to pierce through his heart!
The long blade in Ono's hand fell powerlessly to the ground. He looked back and saw a dagger pressed against Wenxuan Lingtai's brow, having already pierced the skin and drawn blood...
"What... Martial Skill is this? It's actually so miraculous?"
"I don't know either; you should worry about yourself first..." Tian Tian's expression was somewhat complex: "You are also a Third Realm Martial Artist, far stronger than him; why would you willingly listen to such a person?"
"Cough... The fate of the Family, tied to one person..." Ono seemed to notice the trace of pity for him in Tian Tian's eyes and forced a smile: "Do you think I'm pathetic?"
"A little."
"But in Mu Island, I don't know how many people would beg for such an opportunity..." His pupils gradually dimmed, and he muttered: "In the next life, if only I were a great qin people..."
Tian Tian pulled out her blade, watching Ono's body go limp and fall to the ground;
She just felt it wasn't worth it for him, but she didn't feel sorry for him.
Given Wenxuan Lingtai's style, one could guess with their toes how many evil deeds Ono had committed for him in the past!
Chu Yuan especially appreciated one thing about Wenxuan Lingtai;
That was, when facing a life-and-death crisis, he didn't act like some people, shouting, 'I am from the XX Family, do you dare to kill me?'.
At this moment, he tried his best to take his attention away from the dagger hovering at his brow and managed to force a smile as he looked at Chu Yuan: "Brother, I think there might be some misunderstanding between us..."
"Then now the misunderstanding between us is even deeper."
"No, no, no, Ono was just a servant of our Family; a thing like a wild dog, if he's dead then he's dead... He doesn't affect anything." Wenxuan Lingtai said earnestly: "Spare me, and make whatever demands you have! I swear in the name of the Wenxuan Family that I will never seek revenge afterwards!"
"Is that so?" Chu Yuan walked over slowly: "Contact the Zhenwu Bureau."
Wenxuan Lingtai was shocked. In the current situation, these two actually dared to demand that he contact the Zhenwu Bureau; could it be that they really had some connection with people from the Zhenwu Bureau?
But if that were the case, he might not be in any mortal danger after all...
While thinking, he felt the dagger at his brow drill a little further into his skull, and there seemed to be the sound of bone being cut!
"Yes! I will contact the Zhenwu Bureau now! Please don't be impulsive... I won't hide it from you two, my father, Li Wenxuan, is currently serving in the Zhenwu Bureau! We are all our own people!" Wenxuan Lingtai hurriedly opened his terminal and dialed the communication.
"Aren't you from Mu Island?" At this time, Tian Tian also walked over and asked curiously;
She casually slashed her blade across Wuxiang's throat, and a few drops of warm blood splattered onto Wenxuan Lingtai's face.
His expression stiffened, and he replied with a fawning smile: "You two have misunderstood! I can also be considered half a great qin people! The Wenxuan Family was created by my father single-handedly, it is not one of those original indigenous families of Mu Island..."
"Li Wenxuan... Wenxuan Family... Heh." Chu Yuan shook his head. That Zhenwu Bureau member named Li Wenxuan, even though he left his own Bloodline offspring on Mu Island, wouldn't even let them use his surname, Li;
Instead, he used his given name as their surname, directly creating some sort of Wenxuan Family? And they were so rampant and unbridled...
Judging by this, the lives of the Zhenwu Bureau Martial Artists on Mu Island must be quite colorful!
But it was none of his business, he wasn't a member of the Zhenwu Bureau anyway...
"Xijing Zhenwu Bureau, is there any situation that needs to be reported?"
Chu Yuan spoke: "I am Chu Yuan, a trial-taker from the Great Qin Secret Realm No. 7. I was teleported to Mu Island due to the collapse of the Secret Realm and am now in Chi County. Before coming here, an Eighth Realm powerhouse surnamed Han said that I could ask the local Zhenwu Bureau to send us back to Great Qin; or, help me contact the Great Qin Zhenwu Bureau."
"We have already received instructions from the mainland. Please wait at a nearby government office; someone will come to pick you up to Xijing very soon. In addition, for safety reasons, please do not wander around or make contact with Mu Island people at will..." The other party answered formulaically, then seemed to suddenly remember something, their tone changing: "Wait a moment, may I ask who you said you were just now?"
"Chu Yuan."
A sound of tables and chairs colliding came from the other side...
