Chapter 270: Chapter 271: Release or Not? (2nd Update) (Request for Collection, Rewards, and Recommendations)

"Yes, I killed Han Xuanbing, but she deserved to die. A Pavilion Master who pressures her own disciples like that—I, Chu Fengmian, eliminated her, and it was a favor to your Cold Snow Pavilion by removing a significant threat."

Chu Fengmian stated arrogantly. When he killed, it was done openly; Chu Fengmian never hid his actions, and those he killed were all deserving of their fate.

Confronted with the attack from the Han Ning Saint, Chu Fengmian snorted coldly and drew his Red Flame Sword, unleashing a powerful Sword Qi towards her.

"I, Chu Fengmian, had no intention of initiating a fight, but since Han Ning Saint wishes to exchange a few moves, I’m not afraid!"

This Sword Qi charged straight towards the Han Ning Saint, and their powers clashed, pushing her back several steps.

Facing Chu Fengmian, she initially believed she could win easily with less than a third of her strength. However, she found herself driven back directly by Chu Fengmian.

"Han Ning Saint, you are well aware of my strength. If you truly intend to battle me today, the Cold Snow Pavilion could be destroyed."

Benefitting from that move, Chu Fengmian slowly sheathed his sword and spoke calmly.

He had not come to wreak havoc in the Cold Snow Pavilion; that strike was merely to let the Han Ning Saint understand his power.

Without strength, everything is but empty talk. But with sufficient power, even the Han Ning Saint dares not act recklessly against Chu Fengmian.

After all, to defeat Chu Fengmian now, the Han Ning Saint would need to exert her full strength. Under the threat of life and death, she wouldn’t dare use her full force.

"Indeed, your strength is exceedingly peculiar, capable of contending with saints at the level of controlling wind. If I hadn’t witnessed it with my own eyes, I might not have believed it," the Han Ning Saint remarked, retracting her Spiritual Power and studying Chu Fengmian with her eyes.

"Tell me, what exactly did you come to the Cold Snow Pavilion for?"

"As long as Elder Han Qing is released, I will naturally leave," Chu Fengmian replied evenly.

Concerning the Cold Snow Pavilion, Chu Fengmian had always stayed out of their business.

If the Cold Snow Pavilion didn’t provoke Chu Fengmian, then he would not trouble them.

Chu Fengmian came to the Cold Snow Pavilion this time only because Han Yue Li’s master, Elder Han Qing, was detained and in danger within the Cold Snow Pavilion, and that is why he had come to rescue her.

As long as he could save Elder Han Qing, Chu Fengmian would leave immediately.

"Elder Han Qing is an elder of the Cold Snow Pavilion. What the Cold Snow Pavilion does with her is none of an outsider’s business," the Han Ning Saint said with a sneering laugh, glancing at Han Yue Li as she spoke.

"What’s more, you claim to be Han Yue Li’s husband, yet she is a disciple of our Cold Snow Pavilion. Her marriage is the Pavilion’s decision to make. Your demand to take someone with you is sheer arrogance!"

Upon arriving at the Cold Snow Pavilion, Chu Fengmian had breached the Mountain Protection Array and even captured the Pavilion’s Vice-Master Mo. Now, he had driven back the Han Ning Saint.

Against such a junior, the Han Ning Saint intended to put Chu Fengmian in his place.

But Chu Fengmian was not someone to be trifled with.

"From what Han Ning Saint is saying, you don’t plan on releasing her?"

Chu Fengmian’s brow furrowed, and his expression turned much colder. He had shown her respect by negotiating, but if it came to it, with Chu Fengmian’s power, he could simply barge in and take Elder Han Qing away, and the Han Ning Saint would not be able to stop him.

Unless the Han Ning Saint was ready to risk a life and death ordeal by using her full power, there was no way she could block Chu Fengmian.

Since the Han Ning Saint had no intention of showing Chu Fengmian any courtesy, Chu Fengmian certainly wasn’t going to afford her any respect either.

What Cold Snow Pavilion ancestors? In Chu Fengmian’s view, only Han Yueli and her mentor Elder Han Qing from the Cold Snow Pavilion merited his concern.

As for the others, as far as Chu Fengmian was concerned, they were no different from strangers, even less so than a dog.

"Release them? What right do you have to demand their release? Boy, you are simply too arrogant! Our Cold Snow Pavilion will not yield to coercion."

The Han Ning Saint sneered coldly, glancing at Chu Fengmian, her voice frosty.

"Even if someone else were to come today, don’t expect my Cold Snow Pavilion to release them!"

"Furthermore, your affair with Han Yueli is invalid without the consent of our Cold Snow Pavilion."

"Han Yueli is a disciple of the Cold Snow Pavilion. As for who her husband will be, naturally, our Cold Snow Pavilion will decide."

The Han Ning Saint spoke bluntly, Chu Fengmian’s concession only serving to bolster her momentum. On their home ground, the Cold Snow Pavilion, she didn’t believe Chu Fengmian would dare to cause any trouble.

"Ancestral elder, do you truly have no intention of releasing my master?"

In the end, Han Yueli couldn’t help but speak up as well, shocked by the Han Ning Saint’s adamant stance.

From what she gathered, not only might Elder Han Qing be unable to leave today, but she herself might also be detained.

"Han Yueli, if you are still a disciple of the Cold Snow Pavilion, come over here now and sever ties with this boy! Even if Zhi Lingtian is dead, I will arrange a new marriage for you in the future."

"As a Cold Snow Pavilion disciple, everything about you should serve the sect, including yourself!"

The Han Ning Saint spoke without any politeness and even sent forth her palm, attempting to grab Han Yueli away from Chu Fengmian’s side by force.

"Is that so? It seems you really consider me a pushover to be squeezed at will!"

Witnessing the Han Ning Saint’s actions immediately ignited the rage in Chu Fengmian’s heart—the audacity to snatch Han Yueli from before him.

There was now no need for any further discussion.

Chu Fengmian roared angrily, and his Red Flame Sword was charged with an endless intent to kill. Instantly, the Slaughter Sword Technique sent a sword slash, a thousand zhang long, blood-red Sword Qi blasting back the Han Ning Saint’s palm.

"A bunch of old fools, you truly believe yourselves to be someone important, Han Ning Saint, if you do not hand over Elder Han Qing today, then your Cold Snow Pavilion need not exist anymore!"

Chu Fengmian’s spirit was roused, and with a sudden cold shout toward the distance,

"Luo He."

Suddenly, a speeding light approached rapidly—it was the ancient Dragon Turtle. Initially, Chu Fengmian hadn’t intended to force the issue and hadn’t allowed the ancient Dragon Turtle to accompany him inside.

Just in case, he had the ancient Dragon Turtle wait outside. It seemed that today, if the talks didn’t proceed smoothly,

They would simply have to seize the prize by force. Regardless, today, Chu Fengmian was determined to take Elder Han Qing with him, eliminating any future worries.

"Another Saint?"

The sudden appearance of the ancient Dragon Turtle was clearly beyond the Han Ning Saint’s expectations.

"Old fool, since you’re unappreciative today, then I’m prepared to engage in a massacre!"

Chu Fengmian spoke, his eyes full of murderous intent.

"Should you fail to release Elder Han Qing forthwith, I’ll slaughter all disciples of the Cold Snow Pavilion and ensure its complete eradication!"
