Chapter 397 - Good Kill!
“Hold on!”
A figure strode in swiftly from outside the door. Although she wore mens’ clothes, her eyes resembled a painting and her features were delicate – that was none other than the commander of Elixir Yang Sect, Tang Yu.
Sweeping her gaze, she frowned when she saw the dead Elixir Yang Sect disciple on the floor.
When she finally caught sight of Xiaoning, her expression changed starkly as she yelped, “Purple Corpse Corrosion Poison!”
Uncle Liang nodded with a grim expression. “Her face is pale and her lips are purplish. That’s right, it should be one of Poison Sect’s Seven Lethals, the Purple Corpse Corrosion Poison!”
Tang Yu was initially in seclusion cultivation but only found out that something big had happened after she was summoned urgently.
She heard from her fellow disciples that Xiaoning was met with an attack on the long street at the city’s north. Although the attacker was killed by Night Spirit on the spot, Xiaoning was inflicted by the poison.
“To think that it’s Poison Sect!”
However, she lacked decisiveness and dominance.
There was no way for her to control the situation without those things!
Suddenly, a figure appeared in Uncle Liang’s mind.
“That man truly is…”
Uncle Liang could not continue.
It was difficult for him to give an accurate evaluation of that person.
Although he looked like a meek and demure scholar on the surface, he exuded an air of dominance deep from his spine! With sharp methods, he was decisive to kill!
Everything else aside, that particular trait alone would rank him as the top ten of the younger generation!
Suddenly, a voice sounded from outside the Main Hall.
“Who do you guys want to kill?”
The voice was calm, neither loud nor soft. However, it suppressed the chaos in the Main Hall.
Tang Yu shuddered and turned around with a flicker of joy in her eyes.
An elegant green-robed cultivator strode in. The moment he entered the Back Hall, he swept a look with his lightning-cold gaze and the place went quiet instantly!
It was a mighty aura. Although it was indescribable, it could suppress everything!
Su Zimo had returned!
The moment they saw him, everyone recalled the sight from the bloody battle on the long street and their courage weakened unconsciously.
Everyone’s gaze was on Su Zimo.
Uncle Liang could make out a hint of fear and awe in the eyes of the disciples.
“Hmm?”
After entering the Back Hall and witnessing Xiaoning’s weak state, Su Zimo’s eyes flashed coldly and killing intent surged!
Tang Yu whispered, “Fellow Daoist Su, I was careless and did not send any sect disciples to watch over Xiaoning. I truly hadn’t expected that she would be attacked by someone from Poison Sect.”
Su Zimo shook his head in silence with a dark expression.
This matter was not Tang Yu’s fault. If Xiaoning could be poisoned even with Night Spirit guarding her, nothing would have changed even if Elixir Yang Sect disciples were assigned to accompany her.
Although Tang Yu could not ascertain if Xiaoning was alive, Su Zimo had already cleared his seven orifices and could clearly hear a faint heartbeat coming from Xiaoning’s chest.
Furthermore, her heartbeat was growing increasingly stronger!
In other words, Xiaoning’s condition was turning for the better!
Su Zimo turned and walked to Xiaoning’s side. He had barely taken a few steps when Yan Jun blocked his path in a flash, sneering provocatively.
“Su Zimo, you had better stop with that attitude!”
Yan Jun shouted, “It’s true that your sister is dead but that was done by Poison Sect! It has nothing to do with us! However, all of us witnessed your beast killing our fellow disciple. Regarding that, you have to be accountable to Elixir Yang Sect!”
“Is that so?”
Expressionlessly, Su Zimo nodded. “Good kill!”
“What did you say?” Yan Jun’s eyes were widened.
“Get lost!”
“You… ”
Before Yan Jun could complete his sentence, Su Zimo reached out and slapped Yan Jun with his backhand. Instantly, Yan Jun was sent flying and landed in a corner, fainted.
The place fell into an uproar!
