135 See if you have the good fortune

The streaks of light continued to wind tighter as the golden mane bear struggled in vain. Before long, its range of movement was reduced. It’s angry cries also quietened down until it finally stopped moving, not making any sound.

Crimson blood spread on the floor, staining it and making it extra bloody and eerie.

Everyone only saw what had happened within the streaks of light when they faded away.

The strong and muscular golden mane bear had shrunk. It was covered in wounds and had been twisted in an unnatural manner. The blood on the floor came from it.

Mu Hongyu turned and gagged after she took one look.

Cen Hu barely held on, but his pale face had lost its last signs of blood.

Only Gu Mingfeng fared a little better. The corners of his eyes just twitched a little when he saw the scene. His heart was put at ease. After settling the pressing problem, they could finally be considered safe.

But… more problems were brewing quietly.

Chu Liuyue laughed. This little fellow runs faster than anyone when we’re in trouble and returns to acts coy when the danger is over. It’s definitely smart. However, it doesn’t draw my disdain.

Chu Liuyue took the item and thought about it, planning to give it to Mu Hongyu later. At this thought, she walked over to Mu Hongyu and helped the latter up. “Hongyu, are you okay?”

Mu Hongyu thought that she was doomed, but Chu Liuyue saved her at the last second. For that, she was relieved and grateful. While bearing the pain, she wiped the blood away from her face. “I’m fine! They’re just superficial injuries. I’ll be fine in no time. If it weren’t for you…”

“We could only win because you and Cen Hu held it back.” Chu Liuyue shook her head, and her eyes landed on Mu Hongyu’s shoulder. It looked like it was fractured. “Sit down and have a rest. I’ll set your bone for you later.”

Mu Hongyu only realized then that Chu Liuyue had seen right through her. She laughed bitterly. “Your eyes are too formidable.”

Chu Liuyue did not reveal that she had taken Mu Hongyu’s pulse while she had helped the latter up.

But these external injuries weren’t the most crucial ones. Mu Hongyu’s most serious wounds were her internal injuries.

After helping Mu Hongyu settle down, Chu Liuyue went to check on Cen Hu. His injuries were worse than Mu Hongyu’s. He had been injured before, and things had only become worse. His left forearm was fractured, and he had broken two ribs. Things did not look good.

Thankfully, Cen Hu was rather hardy. He could really put up with the pain. He did not even make a single sound when Chu Liuyue set his bone. He even smiled when she dressed his wounds. “Liuyue, you’re amazing. Even a fourth-grade fiend is not your match! That Xuan formation was not a stage-two one, right? To think you said that you were only a stage-two Xuan Master… You would’ve fooled us if we didn’t see it with our own eyes!”

Her face was red from anger as she continued yelling. “Gu Mingfeng, are you crazy?! You know what kind of status you have! How dare you raise a hand against me! I’ll tell Master what happened when I get home, and he’ll make you pay for this!”

Gu Mingfeng ignored her as he expressionlessly tied her hands behind her.

“You disrespectful b*stard! You…”

Pak!

A loud slap cut off her string of insults. Her face was slanted to the side as her left cheek quickly swelled up.

Gu Mingfeng looked at her coldly. “I never said that I don’t hit women. Besides, you’ve got to make sure you live long enough to complain if you want to do it!”

Gu Mingzhu stared at him. The silent, lowly teenager that she could bully at will had grown up and become a dangerous man!

Chu Liuyue walked over to Mu Hongyu. She pressed down on the latter’s shoulder as she carefully set the bone. Without looking up, she calmly said, “It’s not too late to get rid of her after she has repaid what she owes us.”
