Chapter 93: Given the circumstances, it's no wonder he's like this.
Thud!
"Great Hero Yan, spare my life!!"
"I'm just here as a bystander. I can't thank you enough for killing Yue Jinhua!"
Yan Chu looked at Yue Yunpeng, who was kneeling on the ground and weeping bitterly, knowing the fellow was quite the actor.
The other person, Yue Huifang, had a gaze as tender as water at this moment.
She began to untie her sash on her own; her outer robe slipped off her body, revealing a curvaceous figure beneath the loose garment.
"I beg Great Hero Yan to spare this humble woman's life. I am willing to give myself to you to help Great Hero Yan vent his fire..."
Pfft!
A flash of saber light flickered, and two heads flew high into the air as fountains of blood erupted like pillars.
Astonishment still lingered in Yue Huifang's eyes.
You're not even willing to take it for free?
[Killed a Sixth Realm Martial Artist of the Yue Family. Immensely satisfying. Experience +5000]
[Killed a Fifth Realm Martial Artist of the Yue Family. Immensely satisfying. Experience +3000]
Yan Chu's expression was unsightly as he stared at the corpse whose inner garment was already half-removed, blood splattered across her partially exposed chest.
"An old onion like you still wants to take advantage of me? Do you think I'm that desperate?"
This woman's aura was a chaotic mess; there was no telling how many 'guests' she had hosted behind her curtains. One of the lingering scents even bore a resemblance to Yue Yunpeng's.
Yan Chu shook his head, stripped the corpses of any valuable treasures, and strode away.
The stunning woman, receiving his signal, hurriedly followed, and they disappeared together at the end of the street.
Leaving behind only a bloody scene and a crowd of Jianghu people who had already grown numb.
"Dead... even a Grandmaster is dead..."
In the distance, the shock on everyone's faces was indescribable.
"Slaying a Grandmaster with a Sixth Realm cultivation! Hiss... even the number one on the heavenly pride ranking, the Little Martial God Zhou Xi, has never achieved such a feat, right?"
"The entire world is probably going to be shaken!!"
No one could remain calm; exclamations of wonder rang out incessantly.
"Sigh! What a pity! That Yue Family woman wasn't bad looking and looked quite 'moist'. Great Hero Yan just killed her outright; what a waste!"
The crowd looked toward the man who was shaking his head and sighing; his ill-timed words were truly eye-catching.
"Old Liu, you're a damn genius, truly someone who spends the whole year in brothels!"
"If there really were a Patron Ranking, I'd definitely cast a vote for him!"
Ma Qingzong, hidden in the crowd, glanced at Yue Xingye's corpse and silently retreated with an expressionless face...
...
On the other side, Yan Chu and the stunning woman arrived atop a tall building.
From here, one could overlook the entire Longhua Prefecture City.
Yan Chu looked down at the continuous buildings below. The prefecture city had fallen into a brief state of chaos due to his battle with numerous experts.
Jianghu people were everywhere, running around to spread the news.
The government was nearing a standstill; the Six Doors was leaderless, its gates tightly shut.
Yan Chu felt no trace of pride; instead, he felt a sense of urgency.
The news of him slaying a Grandmaster would surely attract even more powerful individuals once it spread.
Turning back to look at the woman, he couldn't help but feel a sense of wonder at her beauty.
However, it was only for an instant; this trace of stray thought was immediately severed by his Saber Intent.
A beautiful woman could only help him cool down, but she couldn't affect the speed at which he drew his saber!
"You must be Shen Zuirong, right?"
A strange light flashed in Shen Zuirong's charming peach blossom eyes.
She possessed the 'peach blossoms on a human face' physiognomy; her fair skin glowed with a natural pink hue, and her eyes were like spring peach blossoms. Almost any man who saw her would lose his soul to her.
The man before her, however, was completely unaffected.
Shen Zuirong's smile was enchanting, and her voice was like a clear mountain spring, pleasant to the ear.
"Has Great Hero Yan also heard of this little woman?"
Yan Chu did not answer but instead asked:
"Is Liu Yaozu with you? Hand over Ye Dinghan's Grandmaster Legacy, and I will let you leave!"
Shen Zuirong paused briefly, then took out a sheet of paper as thin as a cicada's wing from her sleeve and handed it to Yan Chu, saying:
"Even if Great Hero Yan hadn't asked, I intended to give this Cultivation Technique to you."
"However, Liu Yaozu is already dead!"
"This Legacy was obtained from his body!"
Yan Chu took the paper from her hand and scanned it carefully word by word from top to bottom, but a look of disappointment inevitably crossed his face.
This was a technique called the Three Lights Water-Dividing Sword Manual. It was indeed Ye Dinghan's Legacy, containing both a Mind-Cultivation Technique and sword techniques.
However, even if the Mind-Cultivation Technique of this sword manual was cultivated to Perfection, it was only enough to reach the Middle Stage of the Divine Radiance Realm, which fell far short of Yan Chu's expectations.
Back in the day, Ye Dinghan's cultivation was at this level.
Yan Chu temporarily put it away, intending to keep this technique as a backup option.
If he still couldn't find a suitable technique in the end, he would make do with this sword manual for the time being.
Yan Chu asked indifferently: "Speak, what do you want me to do for you?"
This woman suddenly appearing before him clearly meant she had a request for him.
Since she had presented the sword manual with both hands, he didn't mind returning the favor.
Shen Zuirong pondered for a moment and slowly said:
"I want Great Hero Yan to help me kill someone!"
"Kill who?"
Shen Zuirong's tone was cold, carrying an unforgettable hatred:
"An old fossil in the Mountain Shaking Realm!"
"Goodbye!"
Yan Chu dropped those two words and leapt down from the building, turning into a gust of breeze. Within a few breaths, he had drifted several miles away and disappeared from Shen Zuirong's sight.
Are you kidding me?
I don't know where you got the courage to make such a request!
"This..."
Shen Zuirong's cherry lips parted slightly, looking somewhat dazed.
At least let me finish...
You're just taking my sword manual and leaving?
Yan Chu walked on the wind and appeared within the Lu Residence in a few moments.
Wang Ping was waiting outside the residence gates. Upon seeing Yan Chu, he immediately bowed his head to the ground: "Young Master's martial arts are peerless! Your Divine Might is boundless!"
"Slaying the Sixth Realm and killing a Grandmaster, Young Master's great name will be praised throughout the world!"
"Alright, get up!"
Yan Chu waved his hand.
You weren't there when there were so many spectators just now. Now that it's just us acquaintances, what's the point of flattery?
"Yes! Young Master!"
Wang Ping rose sheepishly and stood respectfully behind Yan Chu.
Looking toward the front of the Lu Residence, a large group of people were still kneeling, including the Lu Family head, Lu Zhongxuan. All the members of the Lu family were kneeling on the ground.
Only two women were standing.
One was Su Zhirou, and the other was a beautiful woman who shared thirty percent of her likeness. She wore a goose-yellow ruqun, which made her already fair skin look even more like frost and snow.
Shi Lianhan's gaze toward Yan Chu at this moment was somewhat complicated.
Not long ago, she was strongly advising Zhi Rou to sever ties with this man.
Who would have thought that he would now become the backer for both of them.
She wondered how he would deal with her?
Wang Ping leaned in and whispered a few words into Yan Chu's ear, causing Yan Chu's expression to become somewhat strange.
He looked at Lu Zhongxuan kneeling on the ground, thinking that this fellow was truly a piece of work.
He knew about the Dauntless Gang's leader, Mao Bufan, offering his wife and daughter.
But at that time, he was in the middle of a fierce battle with Han Yunlu, so he had someone reject him, only agreeing to his request to join the Raging Flood Dragon Gang.
He hadn't expected this matter to spread so widely!
If he really did such things, how could he continue to survive in the Jianghu?
Wouldn't his reputation be completely ruined?
Yan Chu didn't know that his reputation for liking other men's wives had already spread throughout the Jianghu, and there was no way to change it now even if he wanted to!
His gaze inconspicuously sized up Shi Lianhan in front of the residence gates again.
She was like a fully ripened flower, different from Han Yunlu's style where every frown and smile carried a heart-hooking charm. Instead, she exuded a sense of fortitude and shrewdness.
Standing with Su Zhirou, the two were like twin blossoms on a single stem, each with her own merits and unparalleled beauty, making even the ruined front courtyard of the Lu Residence seem bright and beautiful.
In that case, one can't really blame Lu Zhongxuan!
