Chapter 710: Chapter 386: Young Master of the Mysterious Sect (2)

Just at that moment, the girl’s figure suddenly spun, escaping the grasp of the young man’s fingers in an almost impossible manner.

However, the young man didn’t fail to catch her; he withdrew his strength midway, turned around, and reached to grab the girl’s arm, but still missed by a fraction, causing the girl to be more than three meters away from him in an instant.

The girl herself looked puzzled.

In that instant, she felt an invisible force pulling her, moving her body without her control.

Once she steadied herself, she realized someone had helped her.

The young man from the Profound Mystery Sect seemed to realize something too and suddenly clasped his fists, looking around in all directions:

"I wonder which esteemed master might be passing by, playing a joke on me?

"I am Zuo Zhongtang from the Profound Mystery Sect!

"I kindly ask the elder to show yourself!"

"Zuo Zhongtang."

Chu Qing smiled slightly:

"So it’s the Young Sect Leader of the Profound Mystery Sect. No wonder... your face is bigger than the sky."

Zuo Zhongtang glared at Chu Qing angrily, then sneered:

"Is this a place for you to speak?"

Chu Qing was momentarily speechless, glanced at the dazed girl, and gently clasped his fists:

"Greetings, young lady."

"Greetings, young master."

The girl’s eyes were slightly red, clearly from crying earlier, suppressing her sorrow as she greeted Chu Qing.

Chu Qing pondered for a moment and asked:

"I wonder if the young lady can tell me what your relationship with Zuo Zhongtang is?"

"There’s no relationship between us!"

The girl spoke instinctively, gritting her teeth as she spoke.

But after saying that, she suddenly changed her tune:

"No, there is a relationship... We have a deep enmity, endless until death!"

When Zuo Zhongtang heard the girl’s first sentence, there was only a sneer on his face.

When he heard ’there is a relationship,’ a smile emerged at the corner of his mouth, but as soon as the last four words ’endless until death’ came out, he became instantly furious:

"How long do you plan to keep causing trouble?

"Whatever you want, I’ve given it to you, even if you wanted the stars in the sky, I would have brought them to you.

"Why can’t I seem to warm your heart?

"Do you... simply not have a heart?"

Chu Qing listened and was momentarily stunned, feeling as though he had inadvertently stumbled onto the set of a romantic drama.

What kind of setup is this?

When they arrived earlier, there was a group of people gathered here just to watch the commotion, and now he realized it was this kind of commotion?

But it actually sounds quite interesting.

The girl, upon hearing Zuo Zhongtang’s heartfelt words, was not moved at all but gritted her teeth and said:

"Is it me who has no heart, or you who are despicable and shameless?

"We only met briefly on the street, yet you pestered me endlessly... I’ve told you long ago, I already have someone in my heart, yet you keep clinging on!"

"So what? Your so-called person of interest—when it comes to looks, martial arts, family background.

"What in any aspect can compare to me, where am I inferior to him?"

"Because you are not him!!!"

The girl cried out:

"Though he may not be as good as you, my heart delights in him, so to me, he is the best.

"Yet you resort to force and manipulation, using the Profound Mystery Sect’s influence to arrange a marriage with my parents.

"Even willing to threaten my entire family’s lives to force me to marry you...

"Do you think someone like you is worth my affection?"

Chu Qing suddenly felt he was missing something like popcorn or sunflower seeds while watching this plot unfold.

Just as he thought that, the sound of crunching could be heard from the side, and Chu Qing turned his head to see Gentle holding a big bag of sunflower seeds, sharing them with Wu Qianhuan and Wenren Qianluo.

Chu Qing was taken aback:

"Where did you get those?"

"From the inn, picked them up by the roadside while leading the horse."

Gentle offered an absurdly farfetched answer, then asked Chu Qing:

"Do you want some?"

"Yes!"

Chu Qing immediately took a large handful, watching the two argue with his arms folded.

No different from the surrounding spectators eating their seeds.

But unlike those around him, Chu Qing egged them on while eating:

"Yes, he doesn’t deserve you."

This drew an angry glare from Zuo Zhongtang, but he still looked coldly at the girl:

"So what? You were married to me with all the formalities.

"Even if you die, you must enter the Zuo family ancestral hall!"

The girl, however, gave a bitter laugh at this point:

"What’s the point of saying these things now?

"A Shu is already dead, you killed him!

"I see no point in living either... Since I cannot kill you, nor do I wish to waste my life, I shall follow A Shu into the afterlife.

"I will watch from the Nine Netherworld and see your final fate!!" 𝘧𝓇ℯℴ𝓂

As these words fell, the girl suddenly turned her palm upon herself, aiming to strike her heart.

Attempting to break her heart vein.

Zuo Zhongtang was terrified:

"Stop!!!"

He leaped and lunged, reaching to grasp the girl’s wrist.

But unexpectedly, at that moment, the girl flipped her palm, redirecting her attack from herself to Zuo Zhongtang.

Zuo Zhongtang was intent on saving her, never expecting the girl to make such a move. At the moment, completely exposed, he was struck fully in the chest by her palm strike.

With a muffled sound, he was sent flying backward, but he adjusted his posture and landed on the ground before he flew more than a meter.

Looking up again, his eyes were filled with despair:

"So you didn’t want to kill yourself, but wanted to kill me...

"Do you hate me that much?"

"Yes!!"

The girl gritted her teeth and said:

"I wish I could skin you alive, pull out your tendons, break your bones, siphon your marrow, so you’d never have peace."

"Young Sect Leader!!!"

The disciples of the Profound Mystery Sect also seemed to be used to just watching the commotion, only now realizing what had happened and hurriedly rushed to protect Zuo Zhongtang, with someone issuing orders:

"Seize her!!"

"Stop!!"

Zuo Zhongtang shouted a command, and the Profound Mystery Sect disciples who had surged forward immediately halted their steps.

Zuo Zhongtang, his face pale, looked at the girl and suddenly let out a bitter smile:

"Enough... enough.

"I didn’t kill your person of interest, take him and leave.

"Never appear before me in this lifetime, otherwise... I don’t know what I might do to you."

"What did you say?"

The girl paused briefly, then suddenly seemed to realize something, quickly parted the crowd, and rushed towards a lifeless body in the crowd.

That person’s face was pale, and he had stopped breathing.

The girl reached him, checked quickly, then suddenly tapped several points on his body.

The man took a deep breath and astonishingly, opened his eyes.

"A Shu!!"

The girl’s ecstatic shout caused A Shu’s face to slightly change as he surveyed his surroundings and softly asked:

"What happened to me?"

"You’re okay, you’re okay, that’s wonderful."

The girl cried tears of joy and hurriedly supported A Shu up:

"Let’s go."

The man, in a daze, nodded and was escorted away by the girl.

As they were about to leave the crowd, Zuo Zhongtang suddenly called out:

"Cheng Xiao!"

The girl paused, looked back at Zuo Zhongtang.

Zuo Zhongtang exhaled lightly:

"This is the last time. I hope you... won’t regret it."

Upon hearing this, Cheng Xiao turned around and resolutely continued supporting A Shu away.

Chu Qing scratched his nose, feeling the plot was rather melodramatic...

Even after they disappeared, Zuo Zhongtang was still staring in the direction they left.

Chu Qing was momentarily at a loss... somehow feeling that he had been forgotten.

He cleared his throat:

"Shouldn’t we address our matters?"

Zuo Zhongtang glanced at Chu Qing and waved lightly:

"Kill them and bring Jiang Qianliu back."

"Yes!!!"

The Profound Mystery Sect disciples immediately took the order.

Chu Qing couldn’t help but roll his eyes dramatically, feeling that Zuo Zhongtang seemed somewhat lacking in wits.

In his eyes, it seemed like there was no bigger matter than that girl just now.

Just as he was about to speak, a reprimanding voice rang out:

"Zuo Zhongtang, how dare you!"

At this voice, Zuo Zhongtang’s complexion sank slightly.

Chu Qing, a bit surprised, turned to see a group of people approaching quickly, led by one Liu Jinghan and one Liu Qingyan.
