Chapter 3280 Lesser Fullness (The commotion was huge)
Hua Nian's eyes widened, and she gasped in shock.
"Brother Yang Rui!"
Just as the white light was about to fall, a red figure appeared like lightning in front of Yang Rui.
Hu Xiaoman spread her arms to protect Yang Rui behind her.
Those clear, cold eyes met Zhou Wenlun's murderous gaze without fear.
"stop!"
She shouted at him sharply, "Zhou Wenlun, you promised me!"
"If I marry you, you'll let them go!"
Zhou Wenlun's hand froze in mid-air, his brows furrowed slightly, and a hint of displeasure flashed in his eyes.
"Xiaoman, move aside."
His voice was deep and carried a hint of danger: "This ant is too noisy, and he disrespected me."
“Killing him wouldn’t hurt, since you still have so many senior brothers.”
Hu Xiaoman sneered, refusing to budge an inch, her eyes resolute: "Zhou Wenlun, he is my fourth senior brother!"
"If you kill him, I will immediately self-destruct my soul, giving you a corpse!"
Hearing this, the gloom in Zhou Wenlun's eyes deepened.
In the past, when Hu Xiaoman had minor squabbles with the people around him, it was because he was in a good mood!
He's in a bad mood right now!
But looking into Hu Xiaoman's resolute eyes, he knew she meant what she said.
After a moment of silence, the white light in his palm slowly dissipated, and that fake, gentle smile returned to his face.
"Alright, since his fiancée is so reluctant to part with him, then I will spare his life."
He withdrew his hand, but the oppressive aura pressing down on Yang Rui did not disappear.
Hu Xiaoman breathed a sigh of relief and turned to look at Yang Rui behind her.
Yang Rui lay on the ground, covered in blood, yet still managed to lift his head with difficulty. His bloodshot eyes were fixed on Hu Xiaoman, and his voice was weak but full of pleading.
"Junior Sister...no...don't marry him..."
"We...would rather die...than have you..."
"Shut up!"
Hu Xiaoman coldly interrupted him.
The concern and anxiety that had been on her face were gone.
Instead, there was an unprecedented indifference and disdain.
Yang Rui was stunned.
He had never seen his junior sister look at him like that before.
That look was as if he were looking at a burden he couldn't shake off, a worthless nuisance.
"Fourth Senior Brother, how long are you going to keep this up?"
Hu Xiaoman looked down at him, her voice icy and chilling.
Every word was like a sharp knife, piercing deeply into Yang Rui's heart.
Do you think I want to marry him?
"But look at the state you've become!"
"They're all half-dead, what can they do besides drag me down?"
"The senior brothers are barely alive, you are about to die, and Hua Nian is also seriously injured."
"If I don't agree to his request, we'll all die here!"
Yang Rui opened his mouth, feeling an itch in his throat and a sudden tightness in his chest.
"But... Junior Sister, that's your happiness for a lifetime..."
"happiness?"
Hu Xiaoman scoffed, her eyes full of mockery: "In this dog-eat-dog world, only those who live and possess power are worthy of talking about happiness."
She turned away from Yang Rui, no longer looking into his heartbroken eyes.
"Fourth Senior Brother, Zhou Wenlun is the Heavenly Dao, the ruler of this world."
"If I marry him, I will have unparalleled power and become the most noble woman in the world."
"What's wrong with that?"
"It's a million times better than following you and waiting to die in this dark and gloomy place!"
Her voice grew louder and louder, as if she were trying to persuade Yang Rui, or perhaps as if she were trying to persuade herself.
"So, Yang Rui, listen to me carefully."
"I married him willingly."
"If you dare to utter another word and ruin my plans, I'll kill you myself without him even lifting a finger!"
Every word was so resolute that it left no room for negotiation.
Yang Rui stared blankly at the red figure.
The junior sister actually said he was a burden.
My heart aches so much it feels like it's about to break.
But he's not a fool.
Through those chilling words, he saw his junior sister's tightly clenched fists hidden in her sleeve.
She was forcing him to live in the cruelest way possible.
"puff--!"
Overwhelmed by anger, Yang Rui coughed up another mouthful of black blood, his eyes lost all light, and he fainted.
"Brother Yang Rui!" Hua Nian cried her heart out, crawled over and hugged Yang Rui, her tears soaking his clothes.
She understood.
The young lady was saving them.
The nicer the young lady treated them, the more Zhou Wenlun wanted to kill them.
Hearing the commotion behind her, Hu Xiaoman trembled almost imperceptibly.
But she didn't turn around.
She cannot turn back.
Once you turn back, all the pretense will crumble.
She raised her head, looked at Zhou Wenlun, and gave him a cold smile.
"How is it? Are you satisfied now?"
As Zhou Wenlun watched this scene, the gloom in his eyes vanished, replaced by extreme joy.
"Satisfied, very satisfied."
He stepped forward and whispered in her ear, "Xiaoman, you really are a smart person."
I like you just the way you are.
"Now that everything is resolved, let's go."
With a wave of his sleeve, a powerful force swept up everyone on the ground.
Then, he raised his hand and tore through the void.
"Hey!"
The solid spatial barrier was torn open like a piece of cloth, leaving a huge crack.
Zhou Wenlun, with Hu Xiaoman in his arms, stepped into the cave and instantly disappeared into the collapsed underground Blood Demon Cave.
Outside the Blood Demon Cave.
The earth was still trembling violently, distant mountains were collapsing, and dust was billowing.
The heads and elders of the Feng, Lei, Ning, and other major families were suspended in mid-air, looking solemnly at the continuously collapsing hole.
"This commotion is huge, what exactly happened inside?"
The Feng family patriarch frowned, fanning himself with his folding fan even faster: "It is said that the Blood Demon Ancestor is sealed in the Blood Demon Cave. Could it be that the Blood Demon Ancestor has broken free from the seal?"
"Impossible!" Although the Lei family patriarch had a fiery temper, his face was now solemn. "If that demon had come out, we would probably all be dead by now."
The head of the Ning family looked at the cave entrance with worry: "I wonder how Ning Shuang's senior and junior brothers and sisters are doing... Such a terrifying fluctuation, I'm afraid they are in grave danger."
Just when everyone was filled with doubt and anxiety.
"Om-!"
A vast and boundless, terrifying aura that changed the very fabric of the world descended without warning.
The originally dark sky was instantly torn apart by golden light.
Everyone felt their scalps tingle, and the spiritual energy within their bodies instantly froze under this aura, making even breathing difficult.
"what is that?"
Someone pointed to the sky in terror.
Suddenly, a huge rift appeared out of nowhere in the void.
Immediately afterwards, a group of figures slowly emerged from the crack.
The leader, dressed in pristine white, though his clothes were tattered, could not conceal the noble aura that placed him above all others.
Beside him was a woman in red, and behind him floated several unconscious figures.
"They're out! They actually made it out alive!"
