Su Xi looked at Yu Fan’s expression, a mixture of fear and shock, and couldn’t help but speak, “How are you feeling now? Are you tired?”
At this moment, all of Yu Fan’s attacks had been broken.
There was no way to change things, so there was no longer any threat.
Yu Fan was like a deflated ball. With a hole in his body, the spiritual power within would flow out constantly through that hole until there was no spiritual power left, rendering him a cripple.
Yu Fan, due to the depletion of spiritual power from his body, became listless. Even his own aura began to weaken.
He wanted to deal with Su Xi, but he was completely unable to act. He couldn’t muster even a bit of strength in his entire body.
Facing Su Xi’s provocative behavior, Yu Fan knew he should resist, but he was still helpless, only able to watch Su Xi speak continuously before his eyes. httpδ:/m.kuAisugg.nět
The outflow of spiritual power from his body left him with no way to respond.
Moreover, the most important thing now was to maintain his spiritual power from dissipating, not to seek revenge.
Otherwise, once the spiritual power completely vanished from his body, it would be very difficult to recover.
“What exactly do you want?” Yu Fan was truly scared now, looking at Su Xi, hoping for a sliver of survival.
He felt that as the young master of the Yu family, Su Xi must have a motive for acting this way. As long as he could discern Su Xi’s objective, he would have more leverage for negotiation.
Everything in the world has value. As long as he paid enough, he was sure he could secure a chance to survive.
Living, after all, was the best thing.
Looking at Yu Fan, Su Xi touched her nose, her face full of helplessness.
Now that he couldn’t beat her, he wanted her to let him go.
Where had his once arrogant and overbearing demeanor gone?
However, she wasn’t someone who could be bullied by anyone. Wanting to beg for mercy just because he couldn’t fight back wasn’t that easy. Everyone had to pay the price for their actions.
Su Xi attacking him now was simply courting death.
Therefore, facing Yu Fan’s plea, Su Xi smiled and said, “You must really want to live right now, right? I’ll tell you now what you should do to survive.”
Hearing Su Xi’s words, Yu Fan felt his breathing obstructed as if someone was constantly pounding on him, making him suffer immensely.
Upon hearing Su Xi’s words, Yu Fan realized he could live. He couldn’t help but ask, “What are your conditions for letting me live?”
At this moment, for them, any condition was acceptable as long as they could survive.
After all, for the Yu family, there were no conditions that couldn’t be met.
Now, he wasn’t worried about Su Xi making demands; he was worried that Su Xi wouldn’t. If Su Xi had no demands, it meant she intended to take his life completely.
Hearing Yu Fan’s words, Su Xi couldn’t help but nod and say, “Very well, what I want now is your life.”
“…”
Upon hearing Su Xi’s demand, Yu Fan’s face was filled with speechlessness.
What did this mean?
Was she trying to fool him by saying such a crazy thing?
She was making demands, not letting him go as she implied?
Was demanding his life considered making a demand?
He forced a smile onto his face and said, “You can’t break the rules of martial arts. You can ask for any other conditions, but can you please spare my life?”
He still had dozens of fiancées waiting to be wedded, and he absolutely didn’t want to die so easily.
At the very least, let him leave descendants for the Yu family.
Seeing the pleading expression on Yu Fan’s face, Su Xi burst into laughter.
This move was too amusing.
However, she wasn’t a good person and wouldn’t help others for no reason.
Helping others wasn’t her role; that was for saints.
Since Yu Fan was sincerely repentant, she would send him to meet the saints soon and help him reincarnate.
Su Xi no longer wasted words with Yu Fan. She signaled to Ouyang Chuge and the Black Mountain Old Demon, hinting for them to seize the opportunity and act.
Although Yu Fan seemed to have lost his offensive power, like a toothless tiger, a broken ship still had three thousand nails. She could not tolerate anyone acting recklessly in front of her.
Therefore, for the sake of safety, she absolutely could not give Yu Fan a chance to breathe or to make a move.
Otherwise, the situation might very well turn against them.
Ouyang Chuge had no objections to Su Xi’s instructions. Together with the Black Mountain Old Demon, they attacked Yu Fan once more.
"Crack."
With a powerful impact, Yu Fan's entire neck snapped and fell to the ground, rolling a considerable distance.
He was filled with regret.
However, even with his immense grievances, he could no longer speak.
After Su Xi dealt with Yu Fan, she looked at Ouyang Chuge, the Black Mountain Old Demon, and the others nearby and said, “We’ve dealt with him. Let’s hurry up and leave.”
Yu Fan’s identity was very sensitive. If they left him here, he would surely be discovered.
Therefore, the most urgent thing was to leave as quickly as possible.
Otherwise, if the Yu family came looking for them, it would be difficult for them to escape.
But just as Su Xi and the others were about to leave, they suddenly discovered that the barrier had been forcibly sealed from the outside. Immediately, a powerful aura locked onto each of them, isolating them from external attacks.
“What happened?”
Such a powerful locking of energy made Su Xi and the others’ faces show disbelief.
They exchanged glances, completely bewildered by what was happening.
They had sealed off the Heavenly Fragrance Pavilion themselves, ensuring no one could enter, and that no news would leak out.
Why, after they had just killed Yu Fan, were they being locked onto by such a powerful aura?
Who was this person who had arrived?
As everyone was in shock and uncertainty, a green energy emerged from Yu Fan’s body and quickly formed a giant figure.
An old man, who bore a slight resemblance to Yu Fan, stood with his hands behind his back, his face full of rage as he looked at Su Xi and the others. He asked coldly, “You killed my son. Now I will make you all pay with your lives.”
“Possession by a borrowed corpse!” The Black Mountain Old Demon cried out in shock at the sight.
It wasn’t that he was being overly dramatic. This technique required a cultivator at the Void Refining stage or above. Furthermore, each casting could unleash the full power of the original body in a single strike.
The three of them had barely managed to contend with Yu Fan’s attacks. Now, facing an attack from a Void Refining stage cultivator or above would be suicidal.
They only wanted to live, not to lose their lives. Therefore, they absolutely could not withstand such a powerful attack head-on; they had to find another solution.
Hearing the Black Mountain Old Demon’s words, Su Xi immediately became more vigilant.
Clearly, she also understood the gravity of the situation.
Facing all of this, Su Xi understood that the situation had exceeded their expectations. Blindly pushing forward would be futile.
Without hesitation, she took out the life-saving hair from Old Ghost.
"Whoosh!"
With a breath, she summoned Old Ghost’s body.
Summoning help?
She could do that too.
As Old Ghost was summoned, he immediately unleashed the power he held and unhesitatingly charged towards the phantom figure in the distance.
Old Ghost hadn’t expected Su Xi to summon him so quickly, and to deal with such a weak individual, it felt like a waste of his goodwill.
Although he didn’t know what Su Xi was thinking, since he had agreed, Old Ghost wouldn’t hesitate.
With Old Ghost’s cultivation, dealing with the Yu family ancestor before him was as simple as eating and drinking, requiring very little effort.
The Yu family ancestor hadn’t expected such a turn of events and was almost scared to death.
Facing Old Ghost, he was like a three-year-old child facing an adult, unable to muster any resistance.
He was utterly confused, not understanding what was happening.
He had used possession by a borrowed corpse to appear so quickly.
But how had this Old Ghost appeared so quickly, and who was he, giving off such an unfathomable aura?
Old Ghost wasn’t in the mood to explain. Without any fancy tricks, he simply walked forward, grabbed the Yu family ancestor by the neck, and swallowed him in three bites, all before anyone else could react.
The once formidable Yu family ancestor was as docile as a quail.
He died silently?
Although they were extremely confused about what had happened, they knew that Old Ghost was incredibly powerful and wouldn’t give them a chance to ask.
Therefore, they all remained calm and said nothing.
At this moment, for them, survival was the most important thing.
Old Ghost glanced at Su Xi, and his figure quickly vanished.
He knew his aura was sensitive. Lingering for too long would be detrimental to Su Xi. If he were discovered, he would face eternal damnation.
Then Su Xi would definitely not be able to retrieve the sarira she wanted, and her hope of returning to life would be reduced to naught.
In a room in the capital, the Yu family ancestor suddenly opened his eyes, spitting out a mouthful of blood. His aura began to change, and his face became grave.
He had seen the murderers of his son, yet because the enemy was too powerful, he was helpless.
“No matter who killed my son, I will not let them go,” the Yu family ancestor wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, abandoning his seclusion, and walked out of the door.
He knew his son had died in the capital. Those murderers must not have had time to leave. If he went to search for them quickly, he was sure to find that group of people.
Once he found them, he could avenge his son.
As for Old Ghost, he was even more important.
But he also knew that Old Ghost had only appeared through some method, and his true body might still be thousands of miles away, so there was no need to worry about him for now.
The immediate priority was to deal with the one who killed his son.
