Chapter 238: Chapter 157: Finally Getting What One Wishes For 2

While Qiao Xiuyuan was sent flying, a scorching hot Inner Strength followed his fist and entered his meridians, planting a heat poison in an instant.

The intense heat surged through his left hand, causing Qiao Xiuyuan to scream in agony. He then gathered his Inner Strength desperately, attempting to suppress the heat poison.

Meanwhile, Lu Yuan took advantage of this opportunity, turning towards the three Seven Star Sect elders who had turned as pale as slaughtered chickens nearby.

With just a few casual slaps, those Seven Star Sect elders, who were struggling to withstand and resist the pressure, were sent flying by him and landed far away, coughing up blood.

Although Lu Yuan intentionally spared these elders from a fatal blow, they were still breathing but unable to get up again.

“You bastard, killing my fellow sect members, prepare to die!”

After suppressing the heat poison on his body, Qiao Xiuyuan saw this scene from a distance, and thought that Lu Yuan had killed another three of his sect members. His eyes instantly turned red with anger.

Now that the Seven Star Sect has fallen to this state, all that they have left are these few elders and himself.

With all seven elders gone, only he remains. Even if he escapes now, reviving the Seven Star Sect will be an extravagant hope.

With his last belief shattered, Qiao Xiuyuan lost control and charged desperately towards Lu Yuan without any regard for his own life.

He had already lost everything, and now all he wanted was to pull his enemy down with him before he died.

However, how could Lu Yuan possibly comply with his adversary’s wish?

The opponent was now barefoot and ready to fight till death, but with his overwhelming advantage in the battle, why would he accompany his enemy to a desperate fight?

He doesn’t even want to get a scratch, let alone fight to the death.

Therefore, Lu Yuan avoided a direct confront but instead delayed and tangled constantly, occasionally sneaking in a few surprise attacks, and wore Qiao Xiuyuan down in a war of attrition.

“Come on, weren’t you a top expert? Why are you afraid of me now?”

“Coward, don’t hide if you have the guts!”

“Coward! Coward!”

Qiao Xiuyuan threw dozens of punches, but Lu Yuan did not take them head-on. Instead, he dodged or deflected them with his skill, refusing to fight him directly. This infuriated the Sect Leader even more.

As a result, the punches from his hands moved faster and with more force.

Upon dodging another punch, Lu Yuan looked at the situation, feeling even more delighted.

His opponent had already lost his rhythm, and each punch now consumed a great deal of Inner Strength.

Although the power was stronger, the consumption was also greater, and it couldn’t last long.

As expected.

After Qiao Xiuyuan threw dozens more punches, he finally stumbled while throwing another punch, unable to keep up with his Inner Strength.

How could Lu Yuan miss this chance!

Seizing the opportunity as his opponent exposed a weakness, Lu Yuan swiftly moved forward and struck a palm in Qiao Xiuyuan’s abdomen. The Inner Strength surged into his Dantian, then flowed into all the meridians, and with a subtle tremor, destroyed and crippled his opponent’s Cultivation.

With his Dantian and meridians severed, Qiao Xiuyuan screamed in pain, unable to stand and collapsed on the ground.

Fortunately, Lu Yuan withdrew the pressure in time, or else, with the disappearance of his opponent’s protective inner force, Qiao Xiuyuan would have turned into a charred corpse.

The battle thus came to an end.

Zhou Qing and the others also arrived at the scene, as well as the surrounding soldiers who had gathered. They all looked at Lu Yuan with awe and admiration in their eyes.

From the moment their General took action, he could be described as god-like in these people’s hearts, earning their reverence.

Many people’s gazes at Lu Yuan were akin to looking at an Immortal.

“Take these prisoners back and prepare to enter the city.”

Lu Yuan swept his eyes over the crowd, and everyone lowered their heads as he passed by.

He knew that after this battle, his reputation among the troops would surely be elevated. He couldn’t help but feel pleased, but his facial expression remained cold and stern.

“Yes.”

Zhou Qing, accompanied by several Disciples, apprehended the living Seven Star Sect members, including Qiao Xiuyuan, and prepared to bring them back to the barracks.

Du Rong also quickly arranged the troops to advance into the city.

After Qiao Xiuyuan and the others attempted to escape, the northern gate had already been opened wide.

The defenders from over there had also been completely wiped out.

Now, there were no obstacles to entering the city.

Lu Yuan returned to the barracks with the war spoils and headed straight to the camp, eager to interrogate Qiao Xiuyuan and the others personally.

“Master Qiao, now is the time for a proper talk with me, don’t you think?”

In the tent, Qiao Xiuyuan, with all his meridians severed, was now a useless man. He sat on a chair, unable to move.

“Dog of an official, just kill me if you want to. I have nothing to talk about with you.” Qiao Xiuyuan had lost all his vitality and just wanted to die quickly.

“Is that so? What about the inheritance of the Seven Star Sect? Are you going to abandon your fellow Disciples as well?” Lu Yuan asked calmly as he looked at him.

“You…” The mention of their sect ignited a hint of anger in Qiao Xiuyuan’s eyes.

However, as he thought of something, the anger receded, and he coldly stared at his enemy. After a moment of silence, he asked bitterly, “What do you want to let my sect’s Disciples have a way of life?”

Admittedly, Lu Yuan’s words genuinely struck a nerve.

As Sect Leader, leading his sect to destruction was already a great sin and mistake.

Now that he had become a crippled man and was unlikely to live much longer, Qiao Xiuyuan’s last remaining sense of responsibility and hope was to preserve a sliver of his sect’s incense and inheritance.

For that, even if he had to compromise with his enemy, he wouldn’t hesitate..</p
