Chapter 415: 202 Murong Ying_1
Adorned in a fluttering blue dress and a light veil over her face, the woman stood atop the mountain, her eyebrows slightly knitted and her lips gently parting in a slightly annoyed tone:
“Do not delude yourselves.”
“Murong Ying, surrender and come back with us. Otherwise, this will be your place of burial.”
The man in green clothes, hundreds of meters in front of Murong Ying, spoke with a heavy voice, bursting with momentum, firmly locking onto the woman in the blue dress.
“Delude? I think you’re the deluded one, Murong Ying. You have no choice now,” said a yellow-dressed young matron with a graceful and mature figure, toying with a small knife in her hand, smiling behind Murong Ying, hundreds of meters away.
A hint of murderous intent flashed in Murong Ying’s eyes as she responded coldly, “You are seeking death.”
“Murong Ying, do you really think you, a mere God Refining Realm cultivator, have the audacity to say such things? What gives you such confidence?” sneered the young matron in yellow.
“Killing Young Master Qi has sealed your fate,” stated the man in green, his voice deep and somber.
Murong Ying replied indifferently, “He deserved to die.”
Young Master Qi was at the Gangyuan Realm, and with his two followers of the God Refining Realm, he tyrannized one side, bullying everyone in Suizhou, and even wanted to capture her as a slave. Murong Ying had simply executed him on the spot, along with his two God Refining Realm followers.
After leaving Suizhou, Murong Ying entered Yunzhou. Unexpectedly, that man was the grandson of Wanshui Palace’s Second Elder. Wanshui Palace was a major Sect of the Ancient Empire, with several Great Grandmasters of the Myriad Phenomena Realm commanding respect across more than a dozen states.
Upon learning of his grandson’s murder, the Second Elder of Wanshui Palace dispatched two Gurus in the Hollow Void Stage to capture her.
Murong Ying fled all the way to Tuo State but was still cornered.
She truly didn’t want any trouble, and though these two men were Gurus in the Void Realm, she hadn’t regarded them as a threat. If she really had to make a move, it would take no more than a few strokes to suppress them.
But killing these two would only make things more complicated. There were only about twenty to thirty Gurus in the Void Realm at Wanshui Palace, and the death of two Gurus was a significant event. The Myriad Phenomena Realm’s Second Elder would definitely take action, and she was currently no match for a Great Grandmaster of the Myriad Phenomena Realm.
Murong Ying also didn’t want to mindlessly slaughter people. If she could escape the pursuit, that would be best. Otherwise, she would have to kill her pursuers and then leave the territory of Wanshui Palace to continue her solitary cultivation.
“Young Master Qi deserved to die, but you weren’t qualified to kill him,” the man in green communicated to the young matron in yellow, as they slowly closed in on Murong Ying.
Young Master Qi’s actions had outraged both heaven and humans, but with a grandfather who was a late-stage Myriad Phenomena Realm Great Grandmaster, the man in green, although displeased, had no choice but to obey orders.
“Murong Ying, don’t make foolish moves in your next life. It’s terrible to be impulsive in this world.”
As soon as the young matron in yellow finished speaking, her figure suddenly appeared behind Murong Ying, raising her hand to strike towards the back of Murong Ying’s head.
Simultaneously, the man in green ambushed her, his long spear thrusting with the force of a dragon, sweeping heavily towards Murong Ying’s abdomen.
“Hmph~”
Murong Ying coldly snorted, unfazed, a flash of blue light covering her body, blocking the attack from both sides. Then, with a flick of her left fingers, sword lights shot towards the man in green, while her right hand formed a fist seal, blasting towards the young matron in yellow.
“How is this possible?”
Both the man in green and the young matron in yellow were sent flying, injured and shocked, disbelief flashing in their eyes.
Murong Ying was just a God Refining Realm cultivator; they had never suspected that she could possess such formidable strength. Otherwise, how could they have chased her for so long and so far?
Now, they realized their assumptions were too naïve; they had kicked an iron plate. Murong Ying wasn’t just talking big; she truly had the ability.
While the two of them were lost in their thoughts, Murong Ying continued her assault, determined to quickly end the fight now that she had engaged.
She flashed above the man in green, pressing down from above with a crushing force. The man in green swung his spear to resist, but he was no match and was killed after just a few exchanges.
As the young matron in yellow managed to steady herself, preparing to aid the man in green, she saw him grievously wounded in just two moves. Without hesitation, she turned and fled.
But she couldn’t escape; after killing the man in green, Murong Ying activated a secret technique and appeared in front of the young matron in yellow. Within three exchanges, the young matron in yellow was dead.
Having killed two Gurus in the Void Realm, Murong Ying sighed, collected their Space Rings, destroyed the bodies, and was about to leave when she suddenly froze in place.
A look of alarm crossed Murong Ying’s face, not because she didn’t want to move, but because she had been suppressed by a powerful being.
“Clap clap clap~”
“A mid-stage God Refining Realm cultivator cutting down two mid-to-late stage Hollow Void Stage Grandmasters, impressive indeed.”
A series of clapping echoed, followed by a voice of admiration. However, the sound made Murong Ying feel rather uneasy.
This person had witnessed the entire event, yet she had not noticed them at all. At the very least, they must be an Emperor Wu of the True Martial Realm, but what was their purpose?
“Who are you?” Murong Ying demanded, her voice cold as she scanned the area, trying to locate the person.
Even before an Emperor Wu of the True Martial Realm, Murong Ying was not afraid. Worst comes to worst, she could use some forbidden techniques at a price and still manage to escape.
“You’re quite composed. It seems you have some cards up your sleeve. Let me test your depth.”
As soon as the voice ceased, Murong Ying saw a delicate and fair hand reaching out from the sky above, grabbing at her. Her body flew uncontrollably towards that hand.
“Don’t even think about it!”
Without hesitation, Murong Ying resorted to a forbidden secret technique, attempting to escape.
To her horror, she still found herself flying towards the fair hand; the forbidden secret technique had not transported her millions of miles away as it should have.
