Chapter 205: Free

War.Everyone present knew what that word represented. The consequences that it would bring along and the fates of those who would be involved in it.

It wouldn't be a political skirmish behind the scenes where every party executed one move and then let the other party move.

It would be a straight-up fight and the survivors would be the winners while the losers would lose their lives, not just the war.

In such a scenario, what does a woman like Liu Yu, who was talented and strong, but not strong enough that she couldn't be taken advantage of?

She knew she would be the clear collateral in this war just like many others. Unlike Sun Ruan, who would protect his family, Elder Zhiang wouldn't consider her a family but an asset.

On the other side, the sect master also knew the consequences of this war. No matter how powerful he was, he couldn't be in every place all the time. Although he would be able to stop the war from the inside, there was no telling about the outside.

Long story short, a war due to a simple claim that my husband was unfaithful to me was ridiculous, and not just him, everyone present knew how absurd it would be.

In such a case, it would also be clear who the main target of this war would be. The one who caused it to start in the first place. Wei Jun and Liu Yu.

However, the circle once again completed itself because Sun Ruan would be there to protect Wei Jun but Elder Zhiang wouldn't go out of his way to protect Liu Yu.

As for Wei Jun, although Liu Yu knew that he was provocative, he wasn't provocative to this extent.

It only meant one of two things. Either he had lost all reason, or he had thought of the entire scenario and intentionally aggravated Elder Mu to make a move.

'Smart boy.' The sect master thought along with many other elders in the hall. This war wouldn't be about how beneficial it would be for one party. It would be about who suffered the most losses.

And from every angle, the ones suffering would be the ones without protection.

And one such person was Liu Yu. That was why she had no choice but to take back her case. It would be as if nothing happened.

Everyone would go their own merry way and this entire ridiculous scenario would be remembered just like so, ridiculously.

"Then it seems we have arrived at a verdict." The sect master said before he continued, "On the voluntary decision of disciple Liu Yu, the court would be dismissed. However, since she has wasted precious time of everyone, she would be confined to the solitary rooms for one month."

Wei Jun smiled as Liu Yu bit her lip but that smile was soon to disappear when the sect master continued, "And since disciple Ruan is the husband of disciple Liu Yu, they would be sharing this punishment."

Wei Jun didn't like it but Shao Chen wasn't going anywhere under the watch of Yan Rong so there would be no problem if he were to stay in confinement for a month but it looked like the sect master hadn't finished yet as he said with an obvious sly smirk on his face, "Together."

'Fu*k.' Wei Jun cursed.

******************

"Kill me. Kill me now." Wei Jun said to Lin Ruan who came to escort Wei Jun to the solitary room while Liu Yu was escorted by Elder Yin.

"Don't worry, dear brother. Even if I don't, she will do it for you." Lin Ruan said with an amusing smile on her face.

"I can see that my misery is quite comforting for you." Wei Jun said before he asked, her for a favor, "Find Yan Rong and tell her to keep the target on hold."

"What target?" Lin Ruan curiously asked.

"Just tell her, she will know." Wei Jun said but didn't elaborate because there wasn't enough time to do so. With her gone, Wei Jun looked at Liu Yu who was also looking at him with a hateful gaze.

To that malicious gaze, Wei Jun flashed his most gorgeous smile that only added fuel to the raging fire inside of Liu Yu.

Soon enough, when they entered the room, they saw that the room was empty on the inside, there wasn't even a rug in the room but in the corner of the room, a pot was placed. Experience new stories with mvl

Inside the pot were brownish balls which Wei Jun felt a little disgusted from just by seeing them.

They barely had a minute before the door behind them was closed and complete and total darkness enveloped the room along with them. Sёarch* The novel(F~)ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

[Apply Qi to your eyes]

[It will enhance your sense of sight]

Wei Jun did as the system asked and it wasn't a difficult task so he was able to do it in one try.

Just in time as well because when he turned to look at Liu Yu, she was coming at him with a punch ready, aimed at his face.

Wei Jun raised his hand hurriedly to clock because it was too late to dodge and it was also very late to activate any of his skills.

Still, Wei Jun's stats were pretty high up and although he was pushed back all the way to the wall of the room as he blocked Liu Yu's punch, he wasn't injured at all.

Liu Yu followed with a knee strike while Wei Jun was still pushing to counter the force of Liu Yu's punch.

[Qi armament]

Wei Jun wasn't too keen on wasting Qi because he knew that Liu Yu had more than him and he would be the first one to run out of Qi. And it wasn't like he couldn't make do with his natural strength as well.

Wei Jun used his other hand to block her kneecap and blocked that strike as well. But Liu Yu was quick enough to follow that up by throwing a punch with her other hand.

This one Wei Jun couldn't block so he did his best to avoid it by moving his head to the side but when the punch barely missed and passed him to hit the wall behind him, the force was enough to let Wei Jun know he wasn't just dealing with anyone.

Liu Yu pushed back and delivered a spinning kick to Wei Jun which he managed to block and to retaliate, he grabbed the thigh of the same leg and slammed her into the wall in a spinning motion.

Liu Yu extended her palms and managed to stop that attack but that was enough time for Wei Jun to let go of her and jump back.

Liu Yu remained in her place after that and didn't move. She just stared at Wei Jun, anger flowing in her eyes but her face was as cold as ice. The cold Yin only enhanced that coldness in her being.

"Why did you do that?" She asked.

Wei Jun wasn't stupid enough to take the blame so he asked, "Did what?"

"Why couldn't you just let me be free?" Liu Yu asked as she took a step forward, her Qi rampaging throughout the entire room.

Even an inexperienced person like Wei Jun could tell that she couldn't control her Qi in anger like Wei Jun could. Wei Jun could control his Qi to remain calm in all kinds of scenarios to remain undetected but Liu Yu couldn't do the same when faced with intense emotions.

[It's not just about losing control of emotions]

[Cultivators are usually hot-headed]

[You would rarely find one like you who could hide his Qi to such an extent]

'Yeah, but that doesn't help me in this situation.'

Wei Jun settled down and replied while preparing defensive measures, "Your freedom costs me a lot, you see. So I cannot grant that wish of yours."

Liu Yu calmed down, or at least she tried to calm down. "You damn men. You are all the same. All you have done all my life is to take advantage of me. First my father, then my master, and now you. Everyone just wants to use me for their own purposes."

The rampaging Qi was getting out of control even though Liu Yu was becoming more and more cold on the outside.

"WHY CAN'T YOU JUST LET ME BE FREE?!!!!!" A storm of Qi, unlike anything Wei Jun had ever seen. Although Yan Rong's Qi was more frightening than this one, it never contained the essence of killing.

However, Liu Yu's Qi contained nothing but unbridled, unadulterated anger that came down from her resentment of the world.

"WAS IT THAT BIG OF A CRIME TO BE BORN A WOMAN?!!!" Another charge overtook Wei Jun and his insides began to freeze.

He desperately circulated his Qi but there was no effect. He still felt like his insides were freezing and not just that, his Qi was also being affected.

And another thing to make matters worse. His death Qi core which was as still as the word itself began to show signs of moving.

[Host, she's advancing to the next realm of cultivation]

[Take cover!]

Boom!!!
