Chapter 276: Chapter 121: Harvest and Return, The Delayed Curtain Falls (Extended Chapter)

Li Yuan scratched his head, a line of black running through his mind.

This time Xiaojie didn’t immediately burst into tears. Instead, he held it in for a few breaths before crying, and Xiaojie took him away to comfort him.

As evening approached, a carriage slowly returned from outside. 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

The lady boss returned from outside. Upon seeing Li Yuan, she merely greeted him respectfully, saying, "Master has returned."

But when there was no one around, she threw herself into Li Yuan’s arms, wrapping her arms tightly around his robust waist, asking with concern, "Was it smooth?"

Li Yuan said, "Pretty smooth."

He felt he really didn’t have the fate of a protagonist.

On his trip to Beijiang Prefecture, he just worked ordinary jobs and made some ordinary money.

As for being bullied by companions, suppressed by elders, encountering strong enemies, or sudden incidents, none of that happened...

He mainly just hung around with Zhu Nuyang for a bit.

The one who really turned the tide of the battle was Elder Zhu from the Holy Fire Palace.

The lady boss, who was tall, hooked her arms around Li Yuan’s neck and whispered softly in his ear, "Shortly after you left, Xiao Ping’an started sleeping by himself. He said he didn’t want his sister to call him a crybaby anymore; he wants to be strong."

Li Yuan laughed, "So the first step to becoming strong is to sleep independently?"

The lady boss giggled, her beauty and allure, which she never showed to others, were fully displayed to the man before her.

Li Yuan said, "This kid, as soon as I came back, he asked me for good food and fun stuff. I gently knocked on his head, and he held his breath for a few moments before crying again."

The lady boss slightly pulled away, though their faces remained almost touching.

Her moist eyes rolled slightly as she glared at Li Yuan, "You’re just bullying our son."

Li Yuan softly chuckled, "I not only bully our son, tonight I want to bully you too."

The lady boss was about to speak when she seemed to have a feeling, blushed, lightly patted Li Yuan’s chest, and coquettishly said, "Hateful."

Li Yuan added, "Every night, I bully you."

The lady boss said nothing more, closing her beautiful eyes slightly and holding her husband tightly, softly responding, "Hmph."

...

...

After a night of joy, Li Yuan took a large pot and ten pounds of Sixth Grade Demon Beast Meat, sat in the yard, stacked firewood, and began cooking the meat.

Even though breaking through to the Fifth Grade was temporarily impossible, he could try his best to improve himself...

And the first step was to continue compressing his blood.

As long as his Shadow Blood level increased, even by a little, he could help Lady Yan.

Sixth Grade Demon Beast Meat was extremely difficult to cook.

Li Yuan cooked it for two full hours, yet the meat was still semi-cooked.

Patiently, he continued cooking for over an hour until the meat was finally done.

Li Yuan took a pair of long chopsticks and a large bowl and started to eat directly.

After finishing, he grabbed the large pot, brought it directly to his mouth, and drank it all down in gulps.

Then began compressing his blood...

...

...

Several days later.

Beijiang Prefecture.

Zhu Nuyang happily attended his daughter’s wedding.

The banquet was lavish, with tables set for over ten miles...

From then on, the Zhu Mansion gained a son-in-law.

This son-in-law was a Seventh Grade Martial Artist named Fang Jianlong.

However, there was no mockery or disdain for this son-in-law.

Everyone attending the banquet was incredibly envious, wishing they could replace Fang Jianlong as the Zhu Family’s son-in-law.

Zhu Qiao’Er, holding the hand of the former Blood Saber Sect’s top prodigy, paraded him proudly around the banquet, introducing her husband to others.

Today, Zhu Nuyang was utterly joyful. He drank a lot in front of others and then returned to the mansion completely drunk, collapsing directly onto his bed.

Soon, snoring began.

Meanwhile, in the darkness, a wave-like disturbance suddenly appeared, heading swiftly toward the long blade by Zhu Nuyang’s bedside.

As the blade was about to be touched by the ripple...

Suddenly, a large hand gripped the handle.

A sharp screech pierced the air.

The ripple retreated like a scalded venomous snake, withdrawing with a "swish."

Zhu Nuyang sat up abruptly, eyes clear of any drunkenness?

He sat grandly on the bed, laughing, "Given the chance, you still dared to come?

"Since you’re here... come out and show yourself."

As soon as the words fell, three figures emerged from the darkness.

The leader was an elderly man with a normal build and a kind face. He said to a thin man beside him, "Chang Qi, I told you, trying to steal Elder Zhu’s weapon while he’s drunk won’t work.

You see, we’ve set up a trap, and they’ve set up a trap too.

The fact that we’ve made it here and entered Ghost Street is also because they’ve deliberately allowed us in."

Chang Qi, his hand entwined with fine threads, glared fiercely at Zhu Nuyang.

This time, nearly all his men in Beijiang Prefecture had been killed by Zhu Nuyang and those seven Sixth Grade ones he led.

Then, the old man again smiled at Zhu Nuyang and said, "My surname is Liu, and I used to be a doctor, somewhat well-known, people called me Liu Yishou.

The reason for that name is because after curing someone, I would often poison them again, hoping they’d come back.

If one perseveres, even heaven rewards them, perhaps the heavens were also moved by me, so they allowed me to become part of the Xinghai.

And then, I had the honor of coming here and meeting such a high and mighty elder like Elder Zhu."

He bowed and smiled, "Elder Zhu, we finally meet."

Zhu Nuyang replied, "Mansion Master of Beijiang Prefecture."

Liu Yishou smiled and said, "That’s correct."

Zhu Nuyang said, "Seems you’re not just thinking about stealing my weapon and striking when I’m drunk... I’m curious now, since we’re face to face, how do you plan to deal with me?"

With that, he cast his gaze towards a man behind Liu Yishou.

The man was a tall, brawny fellow, resembling a dangerous Demon Beast, crouched in the shadows, his body exuding a restrained but oppressive heat that Zhu Nuyang could sense.

This giant man said nothing, just stood coldly behind Liu Yishou.

And Liu Yishou suddenly reached into his chest.

But Zhu Nuyang wouldn’t wait for him to pull something out.

The fierce blade light tore through the ground, shredded the house, and slashed directly toward Liu Yishou.

The giant behind Liu Yishou suddenly stepped forward, standing in front of the blade light.

Boom!!

A furious wave blasted the house, shattered the walls, and continued to spread outward. Several passing servants and maids heard the loud crash, their eardrums bleeding, passing out on the spot.

Smoke and dust billowed, debris scattered.

Zhu Nuyang immediately pulled out the red gourd from his chest.

Pop!

He eagerly uncorked it, allowing needle-thin insects to fly out.

But in the next moment, he saw the scene on the other side through the dust.

Lotus,

Red Lotus,

Petals of lotus flowers floated gracefully with the wind...

Beautiful, fiery, and carrying an intense yang energy.

Clearly, this was also a Spiritual Artifact, and its wielder, without a doubt... was also a Fifth Grade!

Zhu Nuyang’s eyes narrowed, pupils contracted, enunciating word by word, "Red, Lotus, Sect!"

The Red Lotus Sect drove away the Emperor, they helped the Emperor drive away the Red Lotus Sect, the Emperor and Xinghai formed an alliance, but now beside Xinghai is the Red Lotus Sect!!!

Meanwhile, Liu Yishou had already taken out an object from his chest, it was a sinister mirror.

The mirror wasn’t reflecting anyone, but something seemed to be swaying inside.

He quickly flipped his hand, aiming the mirror at Zhu Nuyang.

Instantly, a Zhu Nuyang appeared in the mirror too.

And the Zhu Nuyang in the mirror suddenly ran towards the mirror, his entire face pressing against it, eerily strange.

The real Zhu Nuyang felt a strong pulling force, dragging him towards the mirror, as if if he entered the mirror, the Zhu Nuyang inside could come out.

This force distracted him.

In the domain of Red Lotus petals, the giant man suddenly dashed out, his punch demolishing everything in its path, aiming at Zhu Nuyang’s head.

Zhu Nuyang barely swung his blade to meet the punch...

But with his mind split in two, how could he resist?

This punch shattered his blade light and sent him flying far away.

The giant man, within the Red Lotus petal domain, appeared beside Zhu Nuyang as if by teleportation, his large hand reached out, five fingers spread, grasping the head of the Holy Fire Palace elder, then brutally pressing it towards the ground.

Boom!!!

An outrageous explosion sounded from within the Zhu Family Mansion.

The guests at the banquet earlier all looked sideways, gasping, at a loss, then scattered and fled...

Zhu Qiao’Er held Fang Jianlong’s hand, staring blankly into the distance.

Fang Jianlong reacted quickly, instantly scooping up his wife and, amidst her incessant pounding, swiftly dashed away.
