Everyone watched with great interest as the embassy car drove away.

Only Chu Yang kept his gaze fixed on a towering tree diagonally opposite Gu Bao Zhai.

Gu Ao patted Chu Yang on the shoulder, "You're pretty good, kid! You managed to fool me like that?"

Chu Yang rolled his eyes at him before looking at Jiang Tiangang.

"Take Xiao Heizi to the back room to rest right away. He just had his illusion broken and needs to catch up on sleep immediately."

As he spoke, he placed the silver needle in his hand on Li Heihu's pressure point, which caused him to fall into a deep sleep.

Just as Jiang Tiangang left with Li Heihu on his back, Chu Yangchong and Gu Ao raised their eyebrows.

"Someone's going to kill me in a minute, you'd better take the blow for me."

Gu Ao's lips twitched. "Why should I? If you die, I won't have to worry about medical expenses. Besides, are you really crippled?"

Chu Yang sighed and patted Gu Ao on the shoulder. "With your level of understanding, it's hard for me to explain. Just remember that if something comes up later, just go for it. I'll give you a 20% discount on your treatment fee then."

Gu Ao saw that Chu Yang didn't seem to be joking. "Is the opponent that powerful? What if I can't handle it?"

Chu Yang smiled slightly, "You don't need to know that much."

Gu Ao truly didn't understand why Chu Yang, knowing there was danger, still stood at the door. Couldn't he have gone inside to hide?

When it comes to ambushes, you can't judge their level based on martial arts skill.

There are precedents of martial artists with internal strength assassinating grandmasters.

At this moment, he was on high alert, having long forgotten that he, as a Dragon Shadow Guard, had no obligation to act as a human shield for Chu Yang.

The messy stalls outside Gu Bao Zhai have been cleaned up, and the crowd who had finished eating the melons have all left.

Just as Chu Yang turned around, the branches of the centuries-old, towering tree he had been staring at trembled slightly, startling the birds into flight.

Gu Ao was startled. If he hadn't been on high alert the whole time, he wouldn't have noticed anything amiss.

A faint, almost invisible figure seemed to be invisible even in broad daylight, only causing ripples in the air.

If you're not paying attention, you won't even notice those subtle changes.

"How dare you! You commit murder in front of the Dragon Shadow Guards!"

With a roar, he leaped into the air and flew towards the source of the ripples in the air.

Several eerie laughs echoed from the sky: "Mere Dragon Shadow Commander, if you wish to die, I'll grant your wish!"

The eerie figure was already approaching like a ghost!

too fast!

Gu Ao's vision blurred for a moment, and he couldn't catch a glimpse of his opponent. He only felt a chilling, bone-piercing, and overwhelmingly terrifying gust of wind rushing towards his chest!

"puff--!"

Gu Ao felt as if he had been hit hard by a ten-thousand-pound hammer. If it weren't for his strong protective qi, his bones would probably be broken.

He was thrown back like a kite with a broken string, crashing heavily against the heavy door frame of Gu Bao Zhai with a loud "boom." The heavy solid wood door panel shattered, scattering dust and wood chips everywhere.

His vision went black, and blood gushed out.

"Who... are you?"

The almost transparent, eerie figure moved without the slightest hesitation. One moment it was still on the path of Gu Ao's backward flight, and the next moment it appeared in front of Chu Yang like a leech clinging to his bone!

A chilling, tangible killing intent suddenly descended!

Close at hand!

Chu Yang could already smell the fishy stench emanating from the other person.

"Transformation?"

The figure that had slightly stirred the air paused.

"You also know about shapeshifting?"

Chu Yang was slightly taken aback. "It seems that the illusionary technique used to control Li Heihu was also your doing!"

"You do have some knowledge! I am Sagawa Reina, a protector of the Tengen Sect of Japan. For me to use such a supreme ninjutsu, you can die with honor!"

The old woman's tone was chilling, like a demon seeking death.

Chu Yang suddenly burst out laughing.

"Thanks! But I won't be erecting a monument for you!"

Reina Sagawa was taken aback upon hearing this.

Chu Yang flashed a gleaming white smile, raised his chin, and said, "Do you know what it means for a villain to die from talking too much?"

Reina Sagawa couldn't help but sneer, "Heh heh, let's see who can save you!"

A bone-chilling aura suddenly erupted in front of Chu Yang, and the moisture in the air almost froze into thin ice.

A misty hand suddenly grabbed at Chu Yang's chest.

Chu Yang's pupils shrank sharply, as if what was rushing towards him was not a palm strike, but the wail of death!

He could clearly see a withered hand with black, curved nails, containing destructive power capable of tearing through steel, and carrying a heavy, sinister aura that ripped through the air.

Before his fingertips even reached his neck, the sharp wind pressure already stung his skin.

The shadow of death descended coldly!

"Kid! Die!"

To Sagawa Rena's surprise, Chu Yang didn't dodge or avoid the attack; instead, a mocking smile appeared on his lips.

"Make your move! Otherwise, you'll be collecting my corpse!"

Before Chu Yang could finish speaking, he heard a disdainful, coquettish voice, "I hate you!"

Reina Sagawa, who was already certain of victory, was shocked and terrified.

With her cultivation level and eyesight, she could only hear the sound, not only could she not see the person, but she also could not identify the direction of the sound.

She couldn't believe that even with decades of practice in shapeshifting, she couldn't achieve the same level of complete concealment as the other person.

In a panic, she shouted, "Who's there?"

"Bang!"

A burst of light and shadow suddenly exploded in front of Rena Sagawa.

Before she could even see the other person clearly, a long sword gleaming with a cold light had already pierced through her chest.

She could no longer maintain the shapeshifting spell, and her hunched body slowly appeared in the sunlight.

She stared in disbelief at the girl in front of her, who looked to be no more than twenty years old, with an ethereal beauty and dressed in a classic moon-white dress.

Even now, she still can't believe it.

"Thump—!"

Her legs could not support her weight, and she crashed heavily to the ground.

Chu Yang gave a thumbs up, "My Yueyue is still a cut above the rest!"

"Shut up! Who owns your house?"

Hua Xiyue blushed, feeling quite uncomfortable with this form of address.

However, she also felt very confused.

How did you know I was here?

Chu Yang thought about it for a moment, but decided not to tell anyone about the jade pendant vibrating. It wasn't that he wanted to hide it, but he was afraid that people wouldn't believe him.

Since harmonizing Yin and Yang with Hua Xiyue, it seems that the bond between them has deepened, and the jade pendant's reaction distance is farther and the degree of reaction is higher.

"Uh... just think of it as telepathy."

Hua Xiyue rolled her eyes at him, "Aren't you afraid I'll just stand by and do nothing? Do you know I actually want you to die?"

Chu Yang's expression turned serious, and he replied in a solemn tone, "If I'm such a failure as a person that even my own woman wants me dead, then there's no point in me living. I'd rather be killed by this old hag."

"Ah...you..."

The aloof and cold-hearted healer, who had never experienced love between a man and a woman, had never heard such words before. He immediately blushed and his heart pounded, and he didn't even know how to refute them or from what angle.

"I...I hate you!"

She stomped her foot in anger and was about to pull her longsword back when Chu Yang stepped forward and pressed down on her wrist.

"Don't pull it out!"

"I won't listen to you! I'm going to pull it out!"

"No, no, no...please don't pull it out!"

"I'll pull it out!"

……

The two kept pulling at each other.

Even Gu Ao, who was severely injured and sitting on the ground leaning against the door frame, couldn't help but grin as he watched.

The long sword moved back and forth across Reina Sagawa's chest, making it sound like she was playing an erhu.

"Aaaaah...it hurts so much! Kill me if you want, but don't torture me!"

Reina Sagawa couldn't take it anymore and shouted it out.

Chu Yang and Hua Xiyue uttered two words almost simultaneously, "Shut up!"

Chu Yang quickly explained, "Little Yueyue, this guy has some highly beneficial ingredients on him that would be good for both you and Ningning. If he dies, I won't be able to get them out."

Upon hearing this, Hua Xiyue's eyes lit up, her lips curled slightly, but her beautiful eyebrows furrowed into a knot.

"Then what are you waiting for?"

Chu Yang was puzzled; how did this woman manage to make such a complex expression?

"Give her some injections to keep her alive! I'll be right back."
