Chapter 757: Chapter 320 Letting Nature Take Its Course
In a perilous place, confronted with strangers.
Even with a heart of chivalry, one must stay vigilant against hidden agendas.
Thus, although the two met and reached an agreement to a certain extent, they both held something back.
Wan Yilan used Yu Youniang as a disguise, while Xu Lu utterly refused to speak of his own martial lineage.
Now, all had been exposed.
That day in Lady Wan’s secret chamber, Su Mo had used the Qiankun Acupoint Technique on Wan Yilan.
Today, as Xu Lu performed it, she recognized his background.
And with Wan Yilan looking like this, it wasn’t only that Xu Lu wasn’t foolish, even a real fool would understand the girl’s identity by now.
However, now was not the time for talking. While Jun Luo was entangled in combat with Lady Wan, Xu Lu needed to hurry and rescue Wan Yutang.
Wan Yutang, faced with all that was unfolding before him, was a bit stunned. Who are these people?
Seeing Xu Lu coming over to remove the hooks from his body, he hurriedly whispered:
“Who are you? Don’t meddle in unnecessary matters, go away now!”
“Cut the crap, the hooks in your body aren’t easy to remove. Most have already grown into your flesh. Are you afraid of pain?”
“???”
Before he could finish speaking, Xu Lu exerted force with his hands. In a burst of blood, a hook, along with flesh, was ripped from Wan Yutang’s body.
On Wan Yutang’s scar-crossed face, no particular expression could be seen, just a muffled groan.
Watching this, Wan Cangxin felt a twitch in his heart and swiftly stepped forward.
Yet opening his mouth to speak, he didn’t know what to say.
The only eye Wan Yutang had left scanned over them one by one:
“Get lost… That wild woman won’t delay Jun Luo for long. If you don’t leave now… you might never be able to leave!
“These things on me are hard to remove, especially the Mystic Heart Lock on my Pipa Bone, which comes from the Heavenly Craft Treasure Record.
“Unless I die, there is no way to unlock them.
“Hurry up and go… Don’t waste your time on a dying man like me…”
As he said this, he turned his gaze towards Wan Cangxin, grinned with a fierce smile:
“You young lad, you almost lost your life for nothing. Hurry away, and in the future, don’t come to such dangerous places…
“Spend the rest of your life… taking good care of yourself.”
While he spoke, his body trembled, the only eye he had left still endured the pain, but from the empty eye socket, a turbid liquid flowed down.
His palms clenched then released, lips pursed then closed.
It seemed as though he had a thousand words to say, but he forcefully held them back, cursing with his mouth, only wishing to hasten his departure from this dangerous place.
In the end, the slight tremble in his voice betrayed his true emotions.
Men don’t shed tears easily, only when the heart is truly hurt.
Seeing this old man with a ruined appearance, and mouth filled with curses, Wan Cangxin was already in tears, unable to speak, only stubbornly shaking his head.
“You bloody fool!!”
Seeing Wan Cangxin shake his head, Wan Yutang grew even angrier, gritting his teeth and growling in a low voice:
“Get out of here fast, don’t lose your life in vain.
“Even if your parents were to die, they wouldn’t want to see you lose your life while you’re still young.
“If possible… they, they would only wish for you to have a better life…
“To live better than they did!
“Hurry up and leave, if you don’t leave now it will really be too late.”
While listening to his ramblings, Xu Lu also felt a headache as he looked at all the hooks buried deep in his body.
Jun Luo was too ruthless, too heartless; the hooks reached deep into the bones, and over the years had fused with the flesh.
Even if they were forcibly removed, Wan Yutang would be left without the strength to move.
Moreover, if it was true as he said, that there was a Mystic Heart Lock on his Pipa Bone, then it would be exceedingly difficult to get him out.
Looking up, he saw Lady Wan leading the experts of Wusheng Hall, still locked in combat with Jun Luo.
Only Jun Luo had to merely raise his hand, and a person would lose their life.
He wasn’t unaware of the things happening before him, only in the occasional glance, his eyes full of mocking amusement.
Was he treating this as a game?
Indeed, given this man’s martial arts skills, even if he did manage to rescue the person, escaping from the Endless Prison would be next to impossible.
What to do now?
Regretting that his master Su Mo was not here, otherwise, how could he let this arrogant man run wild?
In a flash of thought, the best strategy for now was to escape first.
To find Su Mo to come here for the rescue certainly seemed most assured.
But once gone, who knew what would happen here?
Wan Cangxin had just escaped death; coming and going, fearing that if he returned to rescue, he would only save a corpse.
While lost in thought, suddenly someone cut through the crowd and approached.
It was Wan Yilan’s senior brother.
His eyes swept over everyone, instantly understanding the situation, and immediately pulled out a broken sword from his sleeve:
“Everyone, don’t panic. Just now, as I was escaping, I found a good thing.
“Brother Wan is a master of swordsmanship; he might want to try this sword.”
Li Xuechun, as he spoke, handed the broken sword to Wan Cangxin.
Wan Cangxin, taken aback, didn’t hesitate. Since Li Xuechun said this, it meant he was sure of it in his heart.
“Brother, step aside for a moment.”
He spoke to Xu Lu.
Xu Lu hesitated slightly, then moved away from Wan Yutang, while walking away he said:
