Let you be a good grandson, you raise a group of banshees?

Lu Yuan did not dare to be careless, and quickly activated the power of the Tianyuan Jade Pendant. A strong energy surged through his body. He waved his fists and started a fierce battle with the man in black.

The two men punched and kicked each other, their qi collided, and there were bursts of roaring sounds. The Buddha statues in the temple were shaky and dust was flying.

The strength of the man in black should not be underestimated. Every move he made was ruthless and went straight to Lu Yuan's vital points. Although Lu Yuan had the blessing of the Tianyuan Jade Pendant, he still felt a little tired.

"Boy, you are quite strong, but you are still not my opponent!" The man in black laughed wildly, "Hand over the Tianyuan Jade Pendant obediently, and I can spare your life!"

Lu Yuan sneered: "If you want the Tianyuan Jade Pendant, it depends on whether you have the ability!"

He raised the inner Qi to the extreme, and the light of the Tianyuan Jade Pendant became more dazzling. He flashed, as fast as lightning, and punched the man in black.

The man in black was caught off guard and was hit in the chest by Lu Yuan's punch. He flew backwards and fell heavily to the ground, with blood spurting out of his mouth.

Lu Yuan took advantage of the victory and rushed forward again, ready to give the man in black a fatal blow. At this moment, a delicate shout came from outside the temple:
"stop!"

A woman in red fell from the sky and landed between the two of them. She had a beautiful face and a hot body, and in her hand she held a red sword with blazing flames burning on it.

"Who are you?" Lu Yuan asked vigilantly.

The woman in red glanced at Lu Yuan coldly and said, "I am Huo Wu, a disciple of the Red Flame Sect."

"Red Flame Sect?" Lu Yuan's heart moved. He knew that the Red Flame Sect was a powerful sect nearby and all of its disciples were very powerful.

"Why did you stop me?" Lu Yuan asked.

Huo Wu snorted coldly: "This man is a traitor to my Red Flame Sect. I have been ordered to hunt him down!"

Lu Yuan looked at the man in black and saw that his face was pale and his eyes were full of fear.

"Humph, I didn't expect you to find out!" The man in black gritted his teeth and said, "But even if I die, I won't let you get the Tianyuan Jade Pendant!"

He suddenly took out a black pill from his arms and swallowed it in one gulp.

"Oh no! He's going to self-destruct!" Huo Wu exclaimed.

Lu Yuan's face changed and he quickly pulled Lin Qingxue back.

boom!
With a loud bang, the black-clothed man's body exploded, and the powerful shock wave razed the entire temple to the ground.

Lu Yuan and Lin Qingxue were blown away by the shock wave and fell heavily to the ground.

"Cough cough..." Lu Yuan covered his chest and coughed violently. Lin Qingxue's condition was even worse. She was pale and had a weak breath. It seemed that she would faint at any time.

"Qingxue!" Lu Yuan quickly picked up Lin Qingxue and shouted anxiously, "Qingxue, how are you?"

Lin Qingxue opened her eyes with difficulty and said weakly: "Lu... Lu Yuan... I... I'm so cold..."

Lu Yuan hugged her tighter with heartache, warming her with his body temperature. He raised his head and looked at Huo Wu, his eyes full of anger.

"It's all your fault! If it weren't for you, Qingxue wouldn't have been hurt!"

Huo Wu's face changed. She didn't expect the man in black would choose to self-destruct. She looked at the unconscious Lin Qingxue and felt a little guilty.

"I'm sorry..." Huo Wu whispered, "I...I didn't mean it..."

Lu Yuan roared, "Is a simple apology enough? Qingxue's life or death is uncertain now, how can I forgive you!"

Huo Wu bit her lip and said, "I will...I will try my best to save her!" She took out a red pill from her bosom, handed it to Lu Yuan, and said, "This pill can heal her wounds, give it to her."

Lu Yuan took the pill, hesitated for a moment, and finally gave it to Lin Qingxue.

The pill melted in her mouth, and a warm current flowed into Lin Qingxue's body, and her face gradually regained some color.

"Thank you..." Lu Yuan looked at Huo Wu gratefully.

Huo Wu shook her head and said, "You're welcome. This is what I should do."

She paused, then continued, "The Tianyuan Jade Pendant...is it with you now?"

Lu Yuan looked at her warily without saying anything.

Huo Wu sighed and said, "I know you have misunderstandings about our Chiyan Sect, but please believe that we are not bad people. The Tianyuan Jade Pendant is of great importance, and I hope you can give it to us for safekeeping."

Lu Yuan sneered: "Do you think I will believe you?"

Huo Wu said seriously: "I know you don't believe me now, but I can assure you that we in the Chiyan Sect will never abuse the power of the Tianyuan Jade Pendant. On the contrary, we will use it to protect the people of the world!"

Lu Yuan looked at Huo Wu's sincere eyes and felt a little shaken. Could it be that...she really had no ill intentions?

Just then, there was a noise from a distance...

The noise in the distance was getting closer and closer, and a team from the Red Flame Sect appeared in the sight of Lu Yuan and Huo Wu. The leader was a burly middle-aged man with a sharp gaze and a powerful aura.

"Junior Sister Huo Wu, are you okay?" The middle-aged man asked with concern when he saw Huo Wu.

Huo Wu shook her head, pointed at Lu Yuan and said, "Brother, the Tianyuan Jade Pendant is on him."

The middle-aged man looked at Lu Yuan, a trace of greed flashing in his eyes. He bowed and said, "Young man, I am Lieyang, the law enforcement elder of the Chiyan Sect. The Tianyuan Jade Pendant is the sacred object of my Chiyan Sect. Please return it to me."

Lu Yuan sneered: "Holy object? I think it's an evil object! This thing has killed so many people, what else do you want to use it for?"

Lieyang's face changed: "Young man, be careful with your words! Although the power of the Tianyuan Jade Pendant is strong, as long as it is used properly, it can benefit the people. Please don't be blinded by rumors."

"Rumor?" Lu Yuan said sarcastically, "I saw with my own eyes that the man in black blew himself up for the Tianyuan Jade Pendant. Is this also a rumor?"

Lieyang sighed, "Alas, that man was so stubborn that he ended up like this. Young man, if you hand over the Tianyuan Jade Pendant to us, I promise that the Chiyan Sect will keep it properly and will never let it fall into the wrong hands."

Lu Yuan sneered in his heart. He didn't believe this statement at all. He could see that Lieyang, like Huo Wu, was full of desire for the power of the Tianyuan Jade Pendant.

"Young man, I advise you to hand over the Tianyuan Jade Pendant obediently, so as to avoid physical pain." Lieyang's tone turned cold, and the threat was obvious.

Lu Yuan smiled disdainfully: "Just you guys? You think you can snatch things from me?"

"How dare you!" a disciple behind Lieyang shouted angrily, "How dare you disrespect the law enforcement elder!"

Lu Yuan glanced at him and said, "What? You want to fight? Come on, I want to see what you, the Red Flame Sect, are capable of!"

"Looking for death!" The disciple drew out his sword and stabbed towards Lu Yuan.

Lu Yuan dodged the sword easily with a flash of his body, and slapped the disciple on the chest with his backhand.

boom!
The disciple screamed, flew backwards, fell heavily to the ground, and vomited blood. (End of this chapter)
