Chapter 167: Chapter 168: Nolan Qingcheng, Disfigured! (8th Update)
In front of Su Yuan, Su Hong, and Su De stood a middle-aged man.
He was dressed in ancient general’s war armor, with hands clasped behind his back, standing firm as a mountain, right before their eyes was the unrivaled War God—Yue Wushuang!
He seemed to be in his thirties, but his actual age was far greater.
Yue Wushuang had sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes, a high nose bridge, a beard that trailed down, and a broad face. He was eight feet tall, his presence imposing like a deity descended from heaven!
One man, one halberd.
Merely standing there, he blocked the way of three Nascent Soul Middle Stage cultivators!
"Yue Wushuang, what are you trying to do?"
Su Yuan said in a deep voice, a thick trace of dread flashing across his aged face!
The man before them was like an ancient War God, his aura unfathomable. Even with Su Yuan, Su Hong, and Su De present, they couldn’t help but feel apprehensive.
"The three of you, please turn back. According to the rules of the Kunlun Ruins, those above Nascent Soul cultivation are forbidden to take even a step out!" Yue Wushuang spoke indifferently.
His voice resonated like a majestic bell, causing a tremor in one’s heart!
"What? Didn’t you see it? Just now, a Nascent Soul Cultivator ran out of the Kunlun Ruins, why didn’t you stop him?" Su Yuan said angrily.
The expression on Yue Wushuang’s face remained calm as he smiled and said, "We from the War God Palace will naturally take care of this. As for you, return immediately. According to the rules of the Kunlun Ruins, any Nascent Soul Cultivator approaching within ten miles of the exit is breaking the law! You have clearly crossed the line!"
"What if I say no?" Su Yuan took a step forward.
"No?"
The smile on Yue Wushuang’s face turned serious as he reached out with his hand.
"Clang!"
The Heavenly Halberd lying on the ground flew into his grasp, pointing towards the sky, as he struck down towards Su Yuan with the halberd.
"Sizzle!"
A terrifying crimson rainbow slashed down, targeting Su Yuan’s head with precision.
"What! You dare!"
Su Yuan’s face paled with shock as he hastily retreated while Su Hong and Su De both took action.
Joined by the trio’s efforts, they finally neutralized the might of the halberd, but their faces revealed even greater shock as they turned to look at Yue Wushuang!
Rustle rustle rustle!
At the same time, the sound of armor clashing echoed. Behind Yue Wushuang, a large group of warriors in ancient armor appeared, all from the War God Palace.
"Trespassers will be killed without mercy!" Yue Wushuang, wielding the Heavenly Halberd, commanded with authority.
"You!"
Su Yuan was so furious he almost spat blood. His most beloved great-grandson had been killed; the murderer right before his eyes, yet he was blocked by Yue Wushuang.
"Elder brother, enough! This is the War God Palace. Let’s leave for now. Clashing head-on with them will bring no good end!" Su De said gravely, stopping the furious Su Yuan.
"Elder brother, let’s go!"
Su Hong too began to leave, pulling Su Yuan back with him.
"Yue Wushuang, you wait! My Su Family has noted this grudge!"
After saying this vehemently, Su Yuan was dragged back the way they came by Su Hong and Su De.
"War God, what should we do now? The one who acted in the auction house was Lin Fan!" A man dressed in armor approached.
If Lin Fan were here, he would recognize the man—the Sword King of Northern Cold from outside the Immortal Burial Valley!
"Let him go," Yue Wushuang said as he gently shook his head.
...
Su Ming died, causing a huge uproar in the auction house.
The auction that was about to begin was even put on hold because of the arrival of the three Nascent Soul cultivators from the Su Family.
At this moment.
When Lin Fan had killed Su Ming, all involved parties were gathered together.
The three Nascent Soul cultivators from the Su Family stood in the auction house with cold expressions.
"Nolan Qingcheng, that person called Lin Fan, he’s your friend, right? I heard you openly confessed your affection for him in front of everyone?" Su Yuan looked down at Nolan Qingcheng and asked sternly.
"Yes."
Nolan Qingcheng bit her lip, her beautiful face turning deathly pale!
"Good! Very good! If that’s so, then commit suicide! My great-grandson Su Ming also liked you. Now you can go down and join him. That would be fitting!"
Su Yuan smiled viciously, his eyes bursting with intense murderous intent!
The entire place went silent, everyone trembling, not daring to speak a word!
"Clang!"
Su Yuan even raised his hand, and a golden dagger accurately landed in front of Nolan Qingcheng, making her delicate body tremble slightly.
Everyone present showed a look of pity in their eyes.
As the most beautiful woman of the Kunlun Ruins, it would be such a pity if she were to die just like that!
"Elder Su! Please show mercy!"
Just at that moment, an aged voice was heard, accompanied by an elder, who with the support of the crowd, walked out shakily.
"Great Grandfather!"
Nolan Qingcheng’s beautiful face suddenly changed color; the elder in front of her was none other than the Nolan Family’s Ninth Grade Dan Venerate, Nolan Tiannan!
"Brother Nolan, it’s you!"
Su Yuan’s expression softened.
The other party was a Dan Venerate capable of concocting Ninth Grade Elixirs, and even Su Yuan had reasons to request his services. Moreover, many Nascent Soul Cultivators from the top ten families used Elixirs refined by Nolan Tiannan.
"Qingcheng is my great-granddaughter, a good child. Brother Su, for the sake of our many years of acquaintance, please spare her this one time!" Nolan Tiannan pleaded.
"Hmph!"
Su Yuan’s face suddenly darkened as he coldly said, "Brother Su, should I give you face? My own great-grandson is also dead! If it weren’t for Nolan Qingcheng, how would he have died over jealousy and conflict? Let Nolan Qingcheng take her own life! I can give you face! But that’s only after Nolan Qingcheng dies; the Su Family can grant her a status, and allow her to marry into our family with Su Ming!"
"What?"
Nolan Tiannan’s body trembled, his old face filled with disbelief, "Brother Su, must it really be so?"
"Hehe! If not, my great-grandson will not rest in peace! If Nolan Qingcheng does not die, your Nolan Family, hehe..." Su Yuan’s eyes narrowed, the chill in his gaze intensifying.
"Fine! I will die!"
Upon hearing this, Nolan Qingcheng’s delicate body shook. If this matter affected the Nolan Family, or even caused them to be targeted by the Su Family, then her death would not be enough to make amends!
Immediately.
Nolan Qingcheng picked up a golden dagger from the ground, ready to commit suicide!
Everyone’s heart leaped to their throats, yet not a single person dared to speak out to stop her. Offend the Su Family over a woman? What a joke!
Suddenly.
"Thump!"
In the shocked gaze of the crowd, Nolan Tiannan actually knelt down slowly before Su Yuan!
"Dan Venerate..."
"Kneeling?"
"How can this be! Even for Su Yuan, he doesn’t have the stature to make a Dan Venerate kneel!"
Everyone present, their faces dramatically changing, couldn’t believe what they were seeing in Nolan Tiannan!
That was a Dan Venerate!
And he, he was kneeling to Su Yuan?
"Great-Grandfather!"
Nolan Qingcheng stood rigid, so shocked she couldn’t utter a word, the dagger in her hand frozen mid-air!
"Silly child, why don’t you know to cherish your own life? If your mother below knew this, she would be heartbroken! Promise me, to live well!"
Tears shimmered in Nolan Tiannan’s cloudy old eyes.
"Alright, I promise you, Great-Grandfather!"
Tears streamed down Nolan Qingcheng’s gorgeous face as she sobbed uncontrollably.
Everyone present was moved.
The next moment, Nolan Tiannan’s old face turned towards Su Yuan, saying, "Brother Su, in my life, apart from my parents, I have never knelt to anyone else! Today I kneel before you, I beg you! Please spare this child Qingcheng!"
Su Yuan himself was stunned!
Even he had not expected that Nolan Tiannan would kneel for the sake of Nolan Qingcheng.
A wave of joy bloomed in his heart!
If word of this spread, his renown, Su Yuan, would surely sweep across the entire Kunlun Ruins!
This was a Ninth Grade Dan Venerate, who had actually knelt before him!
"You!"
Su Yuan’s expression softened, but the murderous intent on his face did not subside as he nodded and said, "As a Ninth Grade Dan Venerate! Since you are willing to kneel, all for the life of Nolan Qingcheng, I will grant you this face! However, her capital crime shall be pardoned, but her lesser crimes remain; her face... hehe! Go ahead and disfigure it yourself!"
Upon hearing this, Nolan Qingcheng trembled!
For a woman, her appearance is far too important!
If she lost her beauty, she would rather die.
But then she remembered, she had just promised her Great-Grandfather to live well...
"Alright!"
Nolan Qingcheng bit her red lips, the dagger in her hand quivering. Then suddenly, she raised her hand and resolutely slashed at her own perfect face, viciously leaving several gashes!
Blood gleamed!
"Ssst!"
"This..."
The crowd present couldn’t bear to look at this scene.
But everyone knew that from today onward, the number one beauty of the Kunlun Ruins, Nolan Qingcheng, would become a thing of the past!
Watching this unfold.
"Hahaha! Ming’er, if you have knowledge beneath the spring, you should be comforted! A Ninth Grade Dan Venerate has knelt for your death, and Kunlun Ruins’ number one beauty has disfigured herself for you!"
Su Yuan laughed heartily and turned to leave.
Leaving only Nolan Qingcheng standing there, letting the fresh blood drip from her cheeks.
A heart-wrenching sight.
