“Come on! With such fine sport, challenging an Emptiness Refining stage like Elder Ming wouldn’t be out of the question!”

At some point, feeling the dragon blood continuously refining within his body, Yino’s long-suppressed excitement and battle lust erupted completely.

The legends spoke truth, Azure Dragon blood brought out one’s savage nature.

Even when challenging the Mother Goddess in the demon abyss, Yino had never felt such craving for bloody battle.

Yino stood alone with drawn sword, facing off against an absolute powerhouse of Emptiness Refining stage. Ancient black-red curse markings began crawling up his face, and even the black-red demon blade in his hand grew unusually excited, radiating fierce light.

“Bastard, how dare you speak with such arrogance!”

The black-robed, gray-haired elder thundered.

As his words fell, those aged eagle eyes blazed with absolute pressure from Emptiness Refining stage.

Almost instantly, Elder Ming transformed into a dark shadow, suddenly flash-stepping before Yino and swinging his iron fist.

“I speak no arrogance!”

With a cold laugh, Yino actually matched that reaction speed, boldly swinging his sword to meet the attack.

The moment fist met blade, Yino activated every ounce of potential in his body. His cultivation momentarily approached Divine Transformation stage, and that terrifying abyssal aura even made Elder Ming, who held the cultivation advantage, widen his eyes in fear.

However. Cultivation level gaps wouldn’t change based on someone’s momentum.

Emptiness Refining’s crushing superiority over Divine Transformation far exceeded what dragon blood-boosted Yino could imagine.

BOOM BOOM BOOM!!!

Their weapons clashed for less than half a second before that single punch sent Yino form shooting away like a cannonball.

Seeing this, Ruoning’s eyes went wide as she finally lost emotional control, tears welling up:

“YINO!”

She was about to cry out, but the moment the girl opened her mouth, a black-red plum branch suddenly covered her mouth from behind.

Ruoning felt shocked. Before she could struggle, the plum branch bound her completely, silently dragging the girl into the Liu mansion’s front courtyard bushes.

During this time, the battle between Yino and Elder Ming drew all elders present. No one noticed the Liu family’s daughter quietly disappearing.

“Mmph mmph mmph mmph!!!!”

The branches dragged the blue-haired girl into the bushes where she struggled and cried throughout.

Tonight Ruoning’s emotions could be described as both fearful and worried.

She worried that the many elders present would suppress Yino, but compared to that, she felt even more afraid of this plum branch host who had appeared from nowhere to kidnap her.

But… Ruoning only possessed a peak Core Formation. Under the opponent’s Divine Transformation suppression, she had absolutely no ability to resist.

Moreover, someone had kidnapped Ruoning for over ten minutes without her making any sound. Even the Liu mansion’s elders and shadow guards hadn’t noticed her disappearance!

“Shh~ Don’t make noise!”

At some point, on a branch in desolate wilderness, the plum host who had dragged Ruoning finally stopped her wall-climbing and roof-jumping.

Under the moon’s shadow, plum branches wrapped Ruoning like a dumpling.

The demon girl twisted her around to face forward, finally meeting the gaze of this white-haired, twin-tailed demonic girl.

Ruoning didn’t recognize her.

But somehow, the other party gave Ruoning a familiar sense of déjà vu.

Her style resembled Liuli, the Full Moon Sect holy maiden who had kidnapped her in Azure Forest, yet her seductive, coldly smiling personality resembled more the red fox girl who had rescued Ruoning in Azure Forest…

Moreover, what made Ruoning even more concerned was that now, observing closely face-to-face, she could actually smell Yino’s scent on the other party.

“W- who are you?!”

“Hmmm… let me think~”

The flower demon girl leaned against a tree, smiling faintly as she raised a finger to her lips in thought.

She pondered for a moment, then suddenly blushed for some reason. Her red lips curved slightly upward as her charming eyes gleamed with vengeful playfulness:

“If you really are that man’s fiancée, then I suppose I serve as your fiancé’s mistress~”

“Mistress?!”

“Oh my~~ Don’t look at me with such disgust~~ It’s really hard to say who plays the mistress now. Maybe you just represent one of that promiscuous man’s many mistresses too?”

Halfway through speaking, Mei suddenly covered her mouth mockingly, her charming eyes narrowing with even more playful mischief: “Oh right! In a certain sense, you might not even qualify as a mistress now, hmm?”

“What nonsense are you spouting, you demoness!!!”

“How, how is he?!”

“Does Young Master face any life-threatening danger?!”

After Lin Ze’s accident, everyone present swarmed forward like a hive of bees, pouring all kinds of spiritual medicines and pills into Lin Ze’s mouth, fearing he might die in the Liu mansion.

Besides rescuing him, the Liu mansion naturally sent people to pursue Yino. However, ever since that black-robed man called Elder Ming made his move, he punched Yino away from the Liu family compound at light speed. Yino even broke countless trees along the way.

After that, Elder Ming immediately gave chase, and the two figures disappeared one after another into the forest outside the Liu mansion, making them difficult to track.

However, Elder Ming possessed the strength of Emptiness Refining.

Since the Lin family elders had sent an Emptiness Refining stage elder to capture him, they surely intended to take down Yino this time. Thus, the Liu family didn’t need to worry too much about Yino’s whereabouts, they just needed to do their utmost to rescue Lin Ze from death’s door.

After all, this time Yino struck first with deadly intent. Even if the Lin mansion captured him and subjected him to private punishment, it would be reasonable and justified, and the Liu mansion wouldn’t bear any responsibility.

Conversely, Lin Ze’s life or death truly concerned the Liu mansion’s reputation.

If they let the Lin family’s young master die on Liu mansion territory, then as hosts, the Liu mansion really couldn’t shirk responsibility.

Fortunately, after several minutes of rescue efforts and observation, everyone discovered that although Yino had pierced Lin Ze’s chest, his palm strike had cleverly missed the heart and vital organs. Now, after several rounds of healing techniques and medicinal pills, Lin Ze’s wound gradually healed, and the bleeding stopped.

“That was close…”

“Young Master truly deserves his Azure Dragon bloodline, even with such severe injuries, his body remains essentially unharmed!”

“But that Yino struck far too viciously!”

“We must not allow this bastard to live!”

Seeing that Lin Ze escaped life-threatening danger, everyone present began chattering among themselves.

In the crowd, Lin Guo repeatedly confirmed that Lin Ze breathed steadily before finally standing up with a gloomy expression, surveying his surroundings.

“Where is that villain! This old man will capture him today and subject him to the most severe punishment!”
