Chapter 220: Chapter 221: Leaving the Holy Land (4th Update) (Please Favorite, Reward, and Recommend)

"If you dare touch her, you’re dead!"

Chu Fengmian glared at Mo Ruoxue, his eyes already filled with intent to kill.

It had been so long since Chu Fengmian had such a murderous urge. Given the chance then, he would have unquestionably hesitated and slain Mo Ruoxue.

But at the moment, Chu Fengmian simply couldn’t make a move.

He couldn’t gamble whether Mo Ruoxue would be able to break through the defenses of the black armor; because if he gambled and lost, the price would be Han Yueli’s life.

"I know I will die, but my life for Junior Sister Han’s is a fair trade."

A cold, mocking smile appeared at the corner of Mo Ruoxue’s mouth, her eyes full of greed.

Since she dared to take Han Yueli hostage, she naturally wasn’t afraid of Chu Fengmian’s threats.

"Hand over your Red Flame Sword and all the treasures in Emperor of Fertility’s tomb, and I promise to let her go. How about that?"

"Choose between the treasures and the person; these are the two paths before you."

Mo Ruoxue said with a sneer.

"One last time, let her go!"

Chu Fengmian stated in a deep voice.

He had originally shown mercy to Mo Ruoxue, refraining from killing her, but he hadn’t expected to fall into such a crisis.

It seemed that not killing an enemy in the end was simply courting disaster. Chu Fengmian had just been too soft-hearted.

"Don’t even think about it! If you don’t hand over the treasures, today I will make sure we both perish together!"

Mo Ruoxue said angrily, the sword edge in her hand inching closer to Han Yueli’s throat.

"Damn it! You’re gonna die!"

Chu Fengmian’s face had turned red with fury. He had never been subjected to such threats before.

This Mo Ruoxue, she deserved to die!

He originally didn’t want to use the Emperor of Fertility’s spiritual monument, but now he had to eliminate Mo Ruoxue with one move. The Killing Sword Technique wasn’t enough, but Chu Fengmian still had the Emperor of Fertility’s monument.

"Burn! Refine!"

From a spatial ring, countless Qi Gathering Pills were tossed out by Chu Fengmian, all nine hundred thousand of them burning fiercely.

Simultaneously, a giant, tenfold larger monument fiercely smashed towards Mo Ruoxue.

"BOOM!!!"

Under the continuous thunderous booms, Mo Ruoxue’s figure was directly blasted to bits, not even a trace of her left behind.

Ordinarily, activating the Emperor of Fertility’s monument once would only need the spiritual power of a hundred thousand Qi Gathering Pills. This time, to ensure the kill of Mo Ruoxue, Chu Fengmian directly used nine hundred thousand Qi Gathering Pills.

By driving the power to the extreme and striking with one blow, Mo Ruoxue couldn’t put up the slightest defense and was completely obliterated.

Han Yueli looked towards where Mo Ruoxue had been, her expression complicated. Her moment of soft-heartedness almost caused a great disaster.

Fortunately, Chu Fengmian had held back a trump card. Not using the Emperor of Fertility’s monument until now had an unexpectedly effective result, instantly killing Mo Ruoxue.

"..."

Han Yueli looked at Chu Fengmian and for a moment didn’t know what to say.

This trouble was ultimately her own doing, yet now she needed Chu Fengmian to resolve it.

"It’s alright. Consider this a lesson."

Chu Fengmian said to Han Yueli with a light smile.

As long as Han Yueli wasn’t injured, none of it really mattered.

Chu Fengmian looked into the sky and with a grab, a storage bag and a cyan longsword were immediately snatched into his hands.

"The Cold Soul Sword," Chu Fengmian said, "I’m giving it to you."

He handed the Cold Soul Sword directly to Han Yueli.

After a glance at the Cold Soul Sword, Han Yueli hesitated for a moment before speaking up.

"You are a sword cultivator yourself, so this Cold Soul Sword should be yours."

"I already have the Red Flame Sword, and this Cold Soul Sword isn’t of much use to me anymore. Besides, the attributes of this Cold Soul Sword are extremely suitable for your cultivation technique. You’re the one who can unleash its greatest power."

Chu Fengmian laughed, forcibly stuffing the Cold Soul Sword into Han Yueli’s hands.

"Moreover, you need to have the power to protect yourself. Otherwise, I’ll always worry."

Originally, Han Yueli wanted to say something more, but upon hearing these words, her face flushed, and in the end, she could only obediently accept the Cold Soul Sword.

"Let’s go."

Seeing Han Yueli accept the Cold Soul Sword, a relieved smile finally appeared on Chu Fengmian’s face.

The greatest treasure of the Holy Land was now collected by Chu Fengmian. There was no longer any use in staying; it was time to leave.

Chu Fengmian had already gained enough benefits from his trip to the Holy Land.

"Alright."

Han Yueli nodded, and the two figures headed towards the entrance of the Holy Land.

At the entrance to the Holy Land, it was time to part ways. Han Yueli would return to the Cold Snow Pavilion, while Chu Fengmian would head back to Wusheng Academy.

It was time to go back.

Yet now, Chu Fengmian’s face bore a tinge of melancholy. During this time together, he had grown unaccustomed to being alone again.

Han Yueli felt the same; she had never before been so reliant on someone.

Now, they had to part.

Chu Fengmian looked at Han Yueli and whispered,

"I will come for you and take you away."

These words changed the loss on Han Yueli’s face to surprise.

"Okay, I’ll wait for you."

Han Yueli whispered back, her figure flashed, and she left the Holy Land, turning into a fleeing light, flying towards the direction of Cold Snow Pavilion.

Chu Fengmian did the same, transforming into a fleeing light, flying towards Wusheng Academy.

The distance from the Holy Land to Wusheng Academy normally required a lot of time to fly, necessitating the use of an ark.

But now that Chu Fengmian had stepped into the Spirit Sea Realm, his power was comparable to the peak of the Wind-Commanding Realm, his speed almost surpassing that of an ark.

Moreover, even if Chu Fengmian fully exerted his fleeing light, he did not have to worry about insufficient Spiritual Power. Within two to three hours, he had reached Wusheng Academy.

Wusheng Academy was still as bustling as ever. When Chu Fengmian returned, he paid no attention to anyone else and flew at high speed as a fleeing light to the mountaintop, straight to the courtyard of the Saint of Xuanbei.

"What a rapid fleeing light, who is it!"

"This faint dragon’s majesty, it’s Chu Feng, he’s actually returned from the Holy Land!"

"It looks like Chu Fengmian has greatly benefited in the Holy Land; his strength has become even stronger!"

Chu Fengmian’s disappearance had been noticed by others who knew he had entered the Holy Land for cultivation.

However, they didn’t expect that Chu Fengmian would return from the Holy Land in just one month, and it seemed he had gained enormous benefits.

"Go and report to the Crown Prince, Chu Fengmian is back."

"And the Cheng family, the Chu family, tell this news to these two major families; they’ll surely reward us."

Some martial artists chatted for a while and then spread the news.
