Elder Yu held tightly onto Ling Yi's fist, a cold gleam showing in his old eyes.

"Master Ling, as an elder, I don't think it's right for you to meddle in a match between young ones, no?"

"Get lost!"

A roar came from Ling Yi's mouth. His eyes were bloodshot with hatred, as if wanting to ravage human flesh. "I don't care about if there's a match or not. I only know that she has made my grandson into a good-for-nothing, and that she must die here today!"

Elder Yu laughed out loudly. "Master Ling, your grandson has taken the wrong path. Even if he was not crippled by someone else, he's still destined to be a good-for-nothing. From this point on, he will have a hard time improving his cultivation."

Like a bolt from the blue, the news struck Ling Yi, making him dumbfounded on the spot.

What did Elder Yu say? Even if Gu Ruoyun did not cripple Ling Xi, he was still a good-for-nothing?

"No!"

"Impossible!"

Lady Shi Yun had said that the secret technique would not have any side effects. This old man must be trying to fool me to protect Gu Ruoyun.

"Do you think that I will believe this just because you say so?" Ling Yi was filled with boiling anger as he bellowed, "I advise you to surrender Gu Ruoyun to me. Or else, don't blame me for not showing mercy! Xi'er is the sole heir of our Ling family, if he's crippled, then that leaves the Ling family without any offspring! That's why I have to let that damned little girl pay the price of death!"

Roar!

Ling Xi let out a furious howl. However, he neither struck out at Elder Yu, nor did he rush towards Gu Ruoyun who was shielded by Elder Yu behind his back.

Instead, he made for Luo Yin who was among the crowd...

"Damn it!"

Elder Yu's expression turned grave. Just when he was about to move forward, a strong wind blew him off his feet. With a thump, his legs gave way and he fell heavily onto the ground.
At that moment, the wooden staff held tightly by Elder Yu was broken in two with a snap. His aged face was terrifying as he looked on with a ghastly expression at the people from the Weapon Refining Sect who acted as if nothing had happened. He spat out three words, word by word.

"Weapon! Refining! Sect!"

Indeed, the source of the force came from the Weapon Refining Sect.

Who would have thought that the Weapon Refining Sect had the nerve to pull tricks with a crowd of people staring!?

"Fine!"

"It's completely fine!"

"I, Elder Yu, will remember this debt!"

"Luo Yin!"

Seeing Ling Yi gunning for Luo Yin, Gu Ruoyun shouted anxiously.

But Luo Yin had barely reacted when she fell into Ling Xi's hands...

"Hahaha! Gu Ruoyun, you think you are safe with the people from Hundred Herb Hall guarding you? Alas, you take me too lightly! If you wish for your friend's safety, then you cannot fight back, no matter what I do! Or else, I'll choke the life out of her!"

Ling Yi's hands grabbed tightly around Luo Yin's neck as he said with a fierce and malicious expression, "Gu Ruoyun, don't mind me!"

Luo Yin glared fiercely at Ling Yi and said fearlessly, "Ling Yi, you shameless old thing! It was your grandson who wanted to sign the lease of life and death with Gu Ruoyun. Who can be blamed if he is crippled? After the young one is beaten, then comes the old one. Don't you guys have any f*cking shame?"

"Shut your mouth!"

Ling Yi raised his hand and slapped Luo Yin's face mercilessly. Immediately, five finger marks appeared on her small face.

However, Luo Yin neither cried nor shouted. She licked the blood from the corners of her lips, a sneer flashing in her eyes.

"The lease signed by those two were witnessed by the Cultivators of the Weapon Refining Sect. Don't tell me that you're going to leave them alone?"

As she was saying this, her gaze moved towards the Weapon Refining Sect.

Although Luo Yin was well informed about the ruthlessness of the Weapon Refining Sect, she had thought that with so many people looking on, even the shameless Weapon Refining Sect ought to be more graceful in their execution.

Sadly, she had underestimated the shamelessness of the Weapon Refining Sect...

"Lease?" Hun Fei glanced at Luo Yin and snorted, "I'm sorry, I only said that the match will end when the winner is obvious. When did I ever mention a lease? Gu Ruoyun went against the rules, so naturally, there will be punishment due. However, we, Weapon Refining Sect do not like to treat human lives like worthless straw, hence we won't meddle in this matter!"

It was not only Luo Yin, even the bystanders, were impressed by the shamelessness of the Weapon Refining Sect after hearing such a speech from them.

However, when they saw Shi Yun knitting her brows beside Hun Fei, they let out a silent sigh.
It seemed that this incident was Hun Fei's own doing and was obviously not Lady Shi Yun's intention. Someone like Lady Shi Yun, who was gentle and kind like a fairy, could never do something so shameless.

"Haha!" Ling Yi laughed boisterously. He was filled with boiling anger as he said fiercely, "Luo Yin, what more do you have to say?"

Luo Yin bit her lip and snorted, "I just didn't think that the Weapon Refining Sect would be so shameless! So, kill me if you like, I have nothing to say! After all, my life isn't worth anything. If you wished to use me to threaten Gu Ruoyun, dream on!"

"Then, you shall see with your own eyes how your good friend is going to be trampled by me! Haha!" Ling Yi laughed angrily while grasping Luo Yin's neck. "Also, don't even think about killing yourself. In my hands, you cannot die! If you want to die, you'll have to wait until I've taken care of Gu Ruoyun!"

After he finished, he looked at Gu Ruoyun. In his eyes was a furious storm.

"Gu Ruoyun, if you don't want your friend to die, then drop that sword in your hand! Then, come stand in front of me!"

From the start until the end, Gu Ruoyun had not said a word. Her pretty and delicate face was expressionless. Her dry gaze projected towards Ling Yi. "Ling Yi, there are things which you should never do. If you have done it, then you must have the resolve to pay the price!"

"Hmph, don't try to mess with me. If you do not obey my commands, I'll let your friend die here! Put down your sword immediately and stand in front of me! I'll give you three minutes, or else, I can't guarantee your friend's life."

Ling Yi grabbed tightly onto Luo Yin's neck. Seeing that the person within his grip was almost suffocating, an endless enjoyment welled up within him.

"Elder Yu, please hold on to my sword."

Gu Ruoyun waved her palm and tossed her sword to Elder Yu. She then made her way slowly towards Ling Yi. Throughout it all, her pretty and delicate face did not have any unnecessary emotions.

"Big..." Looking at Gu Ruoyun's figure, Elder Yu opened his mouth anxiously, but he swallowed his words. Nervousness filled his eyes.

"Gu Ruoyun, you injured my grandson. Today, I will let you experience what hell is! Don't worry, I won't let you die a quick death. I'll only make you pay a thousand times over for what you did to my grandson. Hahaha!"

Boom!

Ling Yi landed a heavy punch on Gu Ruoyun's chest. She was pushed back by the force, her feet dragging a deep and long shadow on the ground. Her beautiful hair dispersed messily, covering her pale face.

She wiped the blood stain at the corner of her lips, raised her head and looked at Ling Yi.
Although she did not say anything, the scorn in the young lady's eyes was so obvious that Ling Yi could not help but burn with rage.
