“You’re finally here…” Bai Yunfei wiped the blood off the corners of his mouth and looked at Qiu Luliu and Chu Yuhe, who were supporting him. He gave a faint smile, but a strange thought emerged in his mind: “Why do helpers always come on the scene at the most critical moments? Why can’t they show up a bit earlier? That way I wouldn’t have needed to take the last palm strike…”
Chu Yuhe looked at Bai Yunfei, who had a somewhat strange expression on his face, with a pair of wide opened eyes filled with tears, almost on the verge of crying, and asked anxiously: “Are you okay, brother Yunfei? Are you hurt anywhere? Are you seriously injured? Please don’t make me worry…”
Surprised, Bai Yunfei looked at this anxious little girl then chuckled and said comfortingly: “I’m alright. Don’t worry. I’m just slightly injured. There’s nothing serious about my injuries.”
After saying so he turned to Qiu Luliu, who was also looking at him with a deeply concerned expression, smiled at her in return and said: “I have troubled you, Luliu…”
“You don’t have to stand on ceremony, Yunfei. You’re Yuhe’s sworn brother. My master also said that we should help you.” Qiu Luliu smiled then looked at a middle-aged woman about thirty years old standing in front of Bai Yunfei, saying: “This is my junior aunt Mu Feng, the elder of the Green Willow School. My master specifically told her to go with me to help you.”
Mu Feng inclined her head a bit to cast a look at Bai Yunfei, nodded slightly then raised her head looking at Liu Cheng in front of her, saying with cold laugh: “I was wondering who you were. Turns out you’re elder Liu from the Glacial School. Why did you go into my Luliu City without reason instead of keeping watch on your Glacial School? You’re even attempting to harm my school’s guest. What’s the meaning of this?”
Liu Cheng frowned slightly, looked at Bai Yunfei then turned to look at Mu Feng again. Giving a soft sigh, he folded his hands in salute, saying: “You’re taking it too seriously, elder Mu. I definitely have no intention of offending your school. This is merely a personal feud between me and this man. Besides, I didn’t know that he’s related to your school at all, so…”
“There’s a feud between you and him? What is it that can make a soul cultivator of the middle Soul Sprite stage like you personally get into action to deal with a junior of the Soul Warrior stage?” Mu Feng interrupted him and asked in a slightly satirical tone.
“He…” Liu Cheng was somewhat speechless temporarily. After pausing for a moment, he continued: “He killed the son of my school’s elder Zhang, so I want to capture him…”
“Oh? He killed Zhang Zhenshan’s son? Do you have any evidence?” Mu Feng raised her beautiful eyebrows, “Besides, why do you want to avenge the death of elder Zhang’s son? Why do you take the trouble to get into action yourself, elder Liu?”
Liu Cheng fell silent for a while then said in a deep voice: “So this means your Glacial School wants to save his life?”
“I already said, this man is a guest of the Glacial School. As long as he’s in this Cuiliu City, my school definitely won’t sit by and watch him get hurt by his enemy. If there’s really a feud between him and Zhang Zhenshan, please tell elder Zhang to come here to confront him in person.” Mu Feng’s tone was resolute and unfaltering. She was the only elder of the Glacial School and a late Soul Sprite, so she was even more powerful than Liu Cheng. Furthermore, they were at the gate of her school at the moment so naturally she would not want to appear weak.
