Madam, please listen to my explanation.

Chapter 142 Sword Heart Shattered
"Xu Jin Huan!"

The expressions on their faces were incredibly interesting.

At first, the two of them were both stunned, their pupils dilating in shock.

Immediately afterwards, the woman seemed to think of something, pursed her lips, and looked shy.

The man beside him had eyes that were practically spitting fire!

Xu Jinhuan took in the entire performance of the two men and burst into laughter, clutching his stomach.

Great, I like your attitude—you can't stand me, but you can't beat me.

This journey, which began outside Nanliang, has now come to an end.

There's no need for me to pretend anymore and play house with these two little kids.

With a thought, four black dots sped towards them from afar.

The two looked at the four familiar daggers and thought the other party was going to have a change of heart and return them to their rightful owner.

结果
He simply spread his five fingers, grabbed casually, and the four daggers vanished without a trace.

Well, he has absolutely no conscience.
“What are you looking at?

Didn't I say that night that everything sold in this store is honest and straightforward, and there are no returns or exchanges?

"You bastard! You're selling counterfeit goods! And you still dare to call yourself Chen Xinghe!"

"Same to you two, don't you also call yourselves Xiao Chunan and Young Master Fan?"

Besides, brothels are originally a business of our Great Yan, and we only need to be responsible to the people of Yan.
What are you looking at? Want to fight?

He didn't care, and the two of them later spread the word about their close relationship with the owner of the brothel.
Anyway, there are many different opinions about this matter. What can two people from enemy countries who haven't even grown up yet do, no matter how much they talk?

It's just slander.

Li Junruo took a deep breath, "Idiot, shut up."

Her feelings were extremely complicated.

He was so eager to do this that he even went to great lengths to buy all the information about the other party.

But they were blind and didn't realize that the person was right in front of them.
Thinking back to how we first became sworn brothers, and then he suddenly attacked us, it was utterly shameful!

She lifted her clothes and bowed to Xu Jinhuan.

"This concubine has met you."

"Stop doing this."

Xu Jinhuan waved his hand impatiently:
"You have a goatee and an Adam's apple bigger than mine, so please don't refer to yourself as 'this humble servant' here. It's disgusting."

Seeing his 'fiancée's' embarrassed look, Xu Jinhuan laughed again.

He was genuinely happy.

This trip to Youzhou was truly a great success!

He had just used Xiaoqing's senses to search inside the snake's belly for a long time by himself.

Now, inside the interrogation chamber, there lies not only a blood-stained snake gall, but also a blood-red demon core with a flowing halo.

The demon core of a seventh-grade great demon!
There's no need to bother my brother-in-law anymore with any more deals with that ancient serpent.

Furthermore, since the ultimate goal has already been achieved, there's no need to venture further into southern Xinjiang. Therefore, there's no need to worry about what kind of trap a certain ill-intentioned former general has set for him to fall into.
Although the snake's head was already at its last gasp and far removed from its original form, the remaining spiritual energy still made Xiaoqing feel blissfully light.

As for that demon core...

In my current state, I am naturally unable to absorb the power contained within.

Given time, he could overcome another inner demon tribulation and successfully enter the sixth rank.

With this demon core in hand, one can quickly reach the peak of the sixth rank, saving ordinary people the effort of decades of hard work!
When that time comes, we will finally be qualified to glimpse the secret of ascending to heaven.

Li Junruo reached out and gently wiped her face, and all her disguises fell away.

She loosened her hair bun at the back of her head, allowing her long, black hair to cascade down.

For a moment, her bright eyes shone like stars, carrying a hint of shyness.

Without the goatee to cover her small lips, they resembled ripe cherries, so luscious and tempting that one couldn't resist picking them.

At that moment, even though Xu Jinhuan considered himself to be used to seeing stunning beauties, he was still utterly amazed.

Li Junruo took in the other party's performance.

She scoffed inwardly, but outwardly appeared both shy and timid.

"Junruo greets Young Master Xu."

Even though he had been deceived all the way, he still believed him without a doubt when the other party said that he was Xu Jinhuan.

On the contrary, at such a young age, he possesses such skill and composure, and only he could make everything seem reasonable.

Despite having only the peak of the fifth rank, he was able to easily render that idiot Xiao Han powerless.

Not to mention the quick thinking and decisiveness the opponent displayed when they killed the snake demon!

No wonder he is the man who could win the heart of the Empress of Great Yan.
Unfortunately, it was destined to be a bad ending for the two of them from the very beginning, even before they met.

Even if she were to ultimately marry this man, she would still find ways to achieve her ultimate goal.
Even if it means starting a war
Whoever it is, let the war kill that beast surnamed Zhou for me!
"Young masters, it's so good that you're alright."

The heavy footsteps of the Hegu Tower slowly made their way here.

He seemed to have sustained some injuries after facing an attack from numerous demons all by himself.

So much so that at this moment, his chest was heaving violently, and even his voice was hoarse and unpleasant.

"Master Hegu".

Now that they had opened up to each other, Xiao and Li no longer needed to hide anything, and they turned around to greet each other.

This mission resulted in heavy losses and ultimately ended in failure.

Compared to the resentment of the other two, this person is truly heartbroken.
Just as Li Junru was pondering how to reintroduce the man opposite him to Master Hegu, he saw him suddenly point to the sky and exclaim:
"Young master, look!"

Before he could finish speaking, the two of them had already noticed something was wrong.

The sharp, explosive sound seemed to pierce their eardrums, and an invisible pressure made it difficult for both of them to breathe.

Even the ground beneath their feet was trembling irregularly.

Li Junruo and Xiao Han covered their ears and looked up in the direction the Hegu Tower was pointing.

On the horizon in the direction of Youzhou City, a long, indigo-blue rainbow is flying towards this place!

The sharp sword energy stung their eyes like needles.

"That's... the Sword Immortal Senior?"

Xiao Han muttered to himself.

Li Junruo was also captivated by the sight, but her gaze never completely left her 'future husband'.
Why didn't he even lift his head when there was such a commotion?
Just as I was thinking this, I saw his sharp gaze and he suddenly pounce on me!

"ah!"

Li Junruo could no longer care about the ever-approaching sword aura; her heart was practically leaping out of her throat.

What is he going to do!
Boom!
A loud bang rang right next to my ear.

Before Li Junruo could react, she was kicked away.

While she was in mid-air, she realized that Xu Jinhuan had already started fighting with Master Hegu.
wrong!

That's not Master He Gu!
The two men had their hands clasped together and were wrestling.

The flesh on Heguta's face was writhing strangely!

His mouth split open wide, reaching all the way to his ears, his teeth became sharp, and a layer of fine scales instantly spread all over his body!

"Your name is Xu Jinhuan?"

The 'Hegu Tower' opened its mouth.

The voice was both real and illusory, neither male nor female.

Just hearing the sound caused a large amount of blood to instantly flow from Xiao Han's eyes, ears, nose, and mouth.

"Master Hegu"

He collapsed to the ground, staring at the old man who had accompanied him all the way, completely bewildered by what had happened.

Thump. Li Junruo also rolled to the ground, supporting herself with her hands, looking completely bewildered.

"Master He Gu is still here. If I hadn't discovered your little master beforehand, he would already be dead!"

Xu Jinhuan felt that the arms gripping his hands were like two small mountains, pressing him down inch by inch.

Fortunately, he had made preparations in advance and had been observing from the shadows.

Otherwise, they would surely be taken advantage of by this ancient serpent demon who suddenly possessed the body of the Hegu Tower!
"Your target is actually this girl?" The bones in his arms creaked under the pressure, but he didn't panic at all.

"But it's too late. My reinforcements have arrived!"

Xu Jinhuan grinned, only to find that the other party seemed completely unangered by the failed attack.

Its snake head transformed into a long tongue, protruding from its narrow, gaping mouth before retracting again, and it sneered:

"You still have time to worry about others. Little brat, I'll dismantle you inch by inch and search carefully to see where you've hidden my demon core."

Oops!

He turned his head sharply and looked at where Li Junruo was.

The azure rainbow had already reached the top of his head, but suddenly a spatial rift opened up beside that foolish woman.

On an arm covered in barbs, four sharp, silver fingernails gleamed and were moving like afterimages, reaching for Li Junruo's head!

The time was calculated with such precision.
They planned to kill Li Junruo in front of his brother-in-law, so that he would regret it for the rest of his life!

"Go away!"

His extremely hoarse voice resounded throughout the heavens and earth!
Before the hand with its sharp, thorny fingertips could even touch the terrified woman, it was swept away by the shockwave from her roar.

Qinghong suddenly fell, standing beside Li Junruo with one hand on her sword.

He was covered in blood, and a grotesque smile was forced onto his scarred face.

"May I have your name"

puff!
The arm that had been previously swung away suddenly plunged into Shen Ye's already riddled-with-holes body.

He remained oblivious, his eyes fixed on the woman before him.

Shen Ye never dreamed of this.

I hope that one day I will be able to see this face again.

As a result, all the pain coming from various parts of my body became unimportant.

Whatever is fine.

He just wanted to watch a little longer.

"Li Junruo"

puff!
A large amount of blood gushed from Shen Ye's mouth.

As rumored, the Sword Immortal was indeed covered in scars and extremely ugly.
Li Junruo's mind went blank.

There's no such thing as a coincidence in the world.
What's more, the jade bracelet on her arm was burning red at the moment!

"Li Junruo, Li Junruo. What a nice name. Is your father Li Yanzhou?"

"Brother-in-law, stop being so sentimental and look at your poor brother-in-law!"

Xu Jinhuan wanted to shout, but in the end, he didn't say anything.

He knew that this man, at this moment, did not want to be disturbed by anyone.

Unfortunately, not everyone shares this level of awareness.
"Hahaha! Shen Ye, prepare to die!"

The sharp fingernails protruding from the space stirred back and forth inside Shen Ye's stomach, while the creature chuckled incessantly.

But the smile froze on his face the next moment.

"Noisy."

Shen Ye remained expressionless and gave a soft snort.

Without any visible movement from him, his entire being seemed to suddenly transform into a drawn sword!
Strange and sharp sword energies burst forth from his body, soaring straight into the sky!

Li Junruo's loose hair fluttered gently in the breeze.
Despite being right in the center of the sword energy, she did not feel any discomfort whatsoever.

All she saw was a blue lotus blooming beside the extremely disheveled sword immortal.

The lotus leaves spun around, instantly obliterating the arm stuck in his abdomen.

Behind them, in the rippling space, a mournful roar had barely begun before vanishing without a trace.

The pressure in Xu Jinhuan's hands instantly vanished.

The monster in front of him still had a wide grin on its face, laughing unrestrainedly.

But from bottom to top, it turned into ashes.

Fortunately, my brother-in-law never forgot me, his brother-in-law.
"Senior, do you know my father?" Li Junruo asked timidly.

She had so many questions she wanted to ask.

Everything fit together so perfectly that she naturally thought of that person.

But how could that be?
Wasn't he already dead?

Shen Ye suddenly turned his head away, as if worried that his ugly appearance would frighten the woman in front of him.

"Okay, okay."

She uttered three "good"s in a row, her voice growing weaker and weaker.

He killed two powerful demons without making a sound, and he himself did not realize that after seeing the girl out of danger, something that he had been missing was being rapidly filled.

At this moment, no one could stop him from talking to the daughter of his old friend.

Even if my mentor Lu Yuan were in person, it wouldn't work!
At this point, Li Junruo was absolutely certain that what he felt from that sword mark was this sense of sorrow and desolation!
"Your father was so lucky. It's just a pity he died so young."
you."

Xu Jinhuan, with a complicated expression, acted as an observer.

This person is probably the most powerful killer on this continent right now.

Unfortunately, she has an extremely tender heart.

If it weren't for his almost obsessive arrogance and soft heart, he probably wouldn't be in this situation today.

"Senior, do you wish to ask about my mother?"

Shen Ye, who had just displayed his great power, seemed to hunch over the moment he heard those two words.

how many years
He never dared to inquire about that woman.

She only found out she was a widow by chance when she was drinking on the street.

He didn't even dare to ask whether the news was true.
酒.
If only I had some wine on hand right now.
For no apparent reason, the peerless swordsman who could cleave heaven and earth, whose sword-wielding hand should have been as steady as a rock, began to tremble slightly.

"My mother..."

Having uttered just three words, the box called 'sadness' that Li Junruo had sealed within her heart instantly opened.

She suddenly lowered her head, her shoulders trembling slightly.

Oops!

At that moment, Xu Jinhuan suddenly realized!
I've been wrong all along!

What do you mean by Orochi's clone?
What kind of monster is hiding in the spatial rift?
It's all a smokescreen!

It's to confuse oneself or others.
So that the man and woman can have a proper conversation!
The demon race was not so naive as to think they could easily kill Shen Ye.
Even if the physical body is destroyed like this, a supreme saint can absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to nourish himself and recover to his peak state in no time!
Their real goal is to shatter Shen Ye's sword heart!

"Don't you know, senior?"

"My mother has been insane for a long time."

Li Junruo raised her head, laughing as she cried.

"shut up!"

Xu Jinhuan hurriedly tried to stop him, but it was too late.

"I almost forgot to mention, she just wet her pants before I left, hahaha."
