Chapter 565: Chapter 323:
Duan Yun and the Murong brothers just happened to land on the roof tiles and lay down quietly.
As Duan Yun activated the Absorption Star Skills, two tiles silently lifted open a crack, through which they could see the scene inside.
Arriving here, the sword aura that felt faintly discernible suddenly became more apparent; the two blade-wielders felt a piercing chill.
This was summer, but the sword intent exuded made one feel like entering winter.
And at this moment, they also saw the interior scene.
Mr. and Mrs. Li stood on one side of the room, their expressions grave, and this terrifying sword aura was being emitted by Mr. Li.
His hands hung naturally at his sides, without a blade, yet he was more fearsome than a world-class swordsman holding a Divine Blade.
Because he was in a state of about to strike but not striking, and his sword aura and sword intent were the same.
Duan Yun and his companion had long seen that Mr. Li’s flying knife skills weren’t weak, but they hadn’t anticipated they still underestimated him.
Just this fleeting and chilling state of readiness surpassed most sect leaders in Qinghe City.
This couple had renovated their house to save money, using only half the tiles, yet never imagined they were dealing with such a master.
It seems in Qinghe City, they aren’t the only heroes treading with low profiles.
Who could be forcing Mr. Li to reveal such sword aura?
Because under their observation, Mr. Li’s sword aura was ethereal, yet he seemed as if facing a formidable enemy.
The next moment, the two shifted their view slightly and saw another person.
A man in a purple robe.
Facing this terrifying sword aura, the purple-robed man just sat there, looking very composed and relaxed.
As if even if Mr. Li’s flying knife was launched, he could catch it effortlessly.
Just this calmness alone made them not dare to underestimate him.
Indeed, another master had appeared!
At this time, the purple-robed man looked at the Li couple, his face filled with pain and deep emotion as he said, "Do you remember our promise?"
Seeing this scene, the Murong brothers understood at once.
This Li couple had eloped.
Mr. Li presumably snatched the woman from the purple-robed man, who was now passionately questioning Mrs. Li, Lin Yin.
Duan Yun likely thought the same.
This Martial World is nothing short of deceit and murder, or the affairs of love, and his companion here is a love-struck fool.
Looks like this Li couple came to Qinghe City to elope and avoid enemies?
Unexpectedly, they still couldn’t escape.
Hearing this, Mr. Li became even more tense and said, "Brother Long, since we’ve known each other, why force me so bitterly; Yin’er and I are truly in love."
As expected, they guessed right.
This was over a woman!
From the looks of it, Mr. Li and Brother Long should be old acquaintances, perhaps even friends.
It’s often said not to betray a friend’s wife; Mr. Li had run away with his friend’s woman.
This is a classic storyline of love and enmity in the Martial World.
Although cliché, Duan Yun and the Murong brothers loved watching it without blinking an eye.
At this time, the man called "Brother Long" in the purple robe wore a face of agony and questioned, "When we were close, you called me ’Little Long Long’; now you have a new love and call me Brother Long."
"Li Kai, do you remember that night at Daxia Lake? What you did and what you said to me!"
"Stop it, I’m begging you not to say more." Mr. Li also said painfully.
Hearing such a conversation, Duan Yun and the Murong brothers were stunned for a moment, thinking they had misheard.
After a while, they too showed signs of pain.
What development was this?
Not two men turned against each other over a woman, but had feelings for each other, with Lin Yin breaking them apart?
No, why did it get so complicated?
"Why can’t I say it? You said you’d love me for a lifetime! Why do you like such a lousy woman?" the purple-robed man questioned again.
The purple-robed man was burly, bearded, giving off the vibe of a well-off merchant roaming the Martial World with no weak martial arts skills.
For a man like this to speak such words, Duan Yun almost wore a mask of agony on his face.
The promised classic plot of elopement with a woman, brotherly fallout, where did it go wrong?
And Mr. Li, you really don’t spare either gender.
Mr. Li shook his head, "Brother Long, it’s all my fault; I thought I liked men, but later found out I also like women. Someone like me is destined never to be with you."
"Really? What if I’m determined?"
"This is what they call starting and abandoning halfway; you don’t love me, and sleeping with me is deception, you think you can just pat your butt and leave?"
The purple-robed man still didn’t stand, but it was clear his emotions were gradually losing control.
At this moment, like a gust of wind, he moved several steps forward, chair and all, suddenly closing in on the Li couple.
Is this Shifting Shadow?
The Murong brothers’ eyes widened, realizing that this purple-robed man should not be underestimated.
Just this Shifting Shadow light body skill bordered on a Grandmaster level.
Li Kai couldn’t help but shout, "Stop coming closer!"
"I won’t! Kai! I can’t live without you!"
Facing Li Kai’s warning, Brother Long seemed to hear nothing, rushing towards Li Kai like a moth to a flame.
At this instant, that ethereal sword intent became reality.
Duan Yun and the Murong brothers knew that the flying knife, which had been concealed, was about to strike!
Such a flying knife, once released, feared it would draw blood and take lives.
With a hum, the flying knife flew out, only to suddenly halt.
Between the purple-robed man and the Li couple, mere inches apart, a fearsome flying knife pointed at his throat.
Even Duan Yun and the Murong brothers couldn’t see how he managed to draw and stop the knife.
We can only say this flying knife truly carried a demonic charm, as if it could hit whatever it intended to.
At this moment, the Murong brothers couldn’t help but think of someone.
Li Feixia.
The legendary Feixia, whose flying knives never missed, was once crushed for three days and nights by the Meat Venerable without dying and successfully pierced the opponent’s right eye with a flying knife.
This Li Kai was also surnamed Li, could he be Li Feixia’s successor?
Back then Li Feixia and the Meat Venerable were both hurt, and later, Feixia’s power waned because he got entangled with the inextricable Bodhisattva Flesh.
But he also took this chance to retire from the Martial World, fathering numerous sons and daughters.
This Li Kai’s expertise in flying knives was remarkable, perhaps it’s possible.
The flying knife’s aura hovered on the purple-robed man’s throat, causing his skin to shiver with goosebumps, but his gaze remained firm.
"If you don’t want me, then kill me."
The purple-robed man took a step forward, forcing the Li couple to retreat a step.
But with a thud, the couple had already hit the wall, with nowhere left to go.
At this moment, Lin Yin couldn’t help but cry out, "Cousin, don’t do this!"
Hearing this, Duan Yun and the Murong brothers showed even more agony on their faces.
Turns out you’re still relatives?
The purple-robed man cursed, "Don’t call me cousin! You just stole my beloved man! I’m willing to die for him, can you do that?"
As he spoke, with a fierce look, he lunged at the flying knife.
Li Kai hurriedly tugged his hand, but the knife still pierced the skin of the purple-robed man.
However, the knife only left a red mark on his skin, then immediately returned to Li Kai’s hand and disappeared.
"What are you doing?" Lin Yin, witnessing this, cried out in fear.
Moments ago, her cousin truly intended to die.
Li Kai spoke with a pained look, "Long, don’t."
The purple-robed man didn’t look at him, but at his cousin, saying, "I’m willing to die for him! For him, I could even become a woman. I found the Jade Sword Sect’s whereabouts, he likes women, so I’ll become a woman and stay by his side, even as a concubine, can you do that?"
Lin Yin looked at him, tears of shock welling up.
"If you don’t kill me, you can’t stop me from being with you."
The purple-robed man looked at Lin Kai and suddenly hugged him.
Lin Kai couldn’t help but shed tears, "Long!"
At this time, Lin Yin stood nearby, seeing her husband also hugging her cousin while tearful, she appeared momentarily helpless.
The purple-robed man looked at her, saying, "From now on, we call as we see fit; you call me cousin, I call you sister, you’re the elder, I’m the younger."
Lin Yin looked at Lin Kai in shock, saying, "Is this okay?"
Lin Kai remained silent, only wrapping her in his embrace too.
Thus, in the eyes of Duan Yun and the Murong brothers, it was a flamboyant scene of Lin Kai’s left and right embrace.
They couldn’t bear to look any longer and quietly left, even shedding a few tears.
They just wanted to watch a show, but this drama was too much to handle!
