Chapter 964: Battle

Su Xiaolu smiled disdainfully. Anyway, this old witch had gone crazy. She did not mind provoking her more.
Her disdain made Bai Liu even crazier and lose her rationality.
Su Xiaolu welcomed her with her sword. She wanted to test her current level. She was not afraid of having such a powerful opponent at all. Instead, she was very excited. The blood in her entire body seemed to be boiling.
Her sword moved with her heart. She fought Bai Liu, who was also at the late-stage Golden Core realm, and was not at a disadvantage at all. Apart from her cultivation, Bai Liu was very strong and her martial arts were very high.
However, Su Xiaolu’s martial arts were also very high. In terms of martial arts, Bai Liu could not defeat her.
This sword technique was extremely overbearing and impossible to deal with.
Bai Liu had only seen one person in her life who could use the sword to such an extent. That person was Gui You.
Bai Liu exclaimed, “You’re Gui You’s disciple?”
Gui You only mentioned one disciple to the outside world, and that was a woman.
She was Gui You and Old Wu’s disciple. She had learned medicine and the sword to the extreme, but there had been no news for decades. They all thought that Su Xiaolu had disappeared.
“I was blind.”
Bai Liu retreated far away. Her eyes were sinister and she was in a sorry state. If they continued to fight, she would still lose.
Su Xiaolu drew a beautiful sword flower and sheathed it again. She looked calmly into the Ice Pond and ignored Bai Liu.
Bai Liu’s expression darkened. She thought for a moment but did not say anything in the end.
She looked at the calm lake, cold air swirling around her, her eyes dark.
The stem of the lotus flower standing in the center swayed. Bai Liu stared fixedly at it and watched as the stem was pulled into the water.
Bai Liu felt blood in her throat.
Soon, two figures surfaced. Who else could it be but Hu Changshou and Bai Xu?
The two of them swam back. Bai Xu took out the Flame Fruit from his mouth and put it away.
Bai Liu did not move. The scene she wanted to see did not happen, but what she did not want to see happened. She gritted her teeth.
Bai Xu glanced over coldly and faced the malicious gaze of hundreds of willows. She said coldly, “Grandma, I’m sorry for not letting you have your wish.”
Bai Liu’s face twitched. “Bai Xu, you will regret it one day.”
“Perhaps, but even if that day comes, Grandma, you won’t be able to see it.”
Bai Xu revealed killing intent.
Bai Liu sneered. “You want to kill me? You?”
How ironic. Bai Xu was coming at her. Don’t blame her for being ruthless.
Bai Xu did not say anything else. Her figure was like a leopard as she attacked Bai Liu agilely. Hu Changshou was also with her, one on the left and one on the right.
“Su Xiaolu, thank you. Now, let me settle this grudge myself. I hope you won’t interfere. Life and death are up to fate.”
Bai Xu shouted at Su Xiaolu. She wanted to settle the grudge between her and Grandma herself.
Hu Changshou was the person she loved. If he wanted to marry her in the future, they would be one.
Bai Liu was extremely hateful and her attacks were ruthless. However, after exchanging blows, she realized that Bai Xu’s strength had increased greatly and Hu Changshou was not bad either. The two of them could actually resist her hand in hand.
The two of them cooperated very well, as if their hearts were connected. Such cooperation undoubtedly poked Bai Liu in the eye.
Bai Liu spat out blood as the swords slashed her body.
Realizing that she was no match for them, she panicked for a moment and roared sternly, “Bai Xu, I’ve treated you so well in vain. You’re going to kill Grandma for a man.”
“Everything Grandma does is for your own good. Why don’t you understand?” Bai Liu roared in accusation.
Bai Xu retorted coldly, “Grandma abandoned me that year and used my life to exchange for your life. Why didn’t you mention that? Grandma always said that I was picked up and abandoned by Father and Mother. Then where did you pick me up? Grandma, why didn’t you mention it?”
“Grandma always said that all men in this world are heartless. Then why don’t you kill all these heartless men? Grandma must love someone very much to be like this, but why don’t I see you seeking revenge? Grandma is full of lies herself, and you still want me to believe you. What a joke.”
Bai Xu’s question was powerful and resounding. These questions had long been entrenched in her heart.
Today, their blades met. Bai Liu was no match for her. It was impossible to soften her heart with emotions.
Her and Hu Changshou’s strength had increased drastically after eating the lotus flower lotus seeds. She had also reached the late-stage Golden Core realm, so she naturally had the confidence to compete with Bai Liu.
Although Hu Changshou was only at the mid-stage Golden Core realm, the two of them were even stronger when they joined forces.
Bai Liu could not take it anymore, so she wanted to dodge.
However, Bai Xu stopped her. In today’s battle, she had to settle the score. She would not let such a huge enemy have the chance to take revenge on her again.
Seeing that Bai Xu had really killed her, a trace of viciousness flashed across Bai Liu’s eyes. She quickly retreated and went to Bai Yu’s side. She grabbed Bai
Yu’s neck and roared, “Stop. If you don’t stop, I’ll break her neck and kill her.”
Bai Xu and Hu Changshou leaned against each other and both of them were stunned.
Bai Yu was actually an innocent person. Hu Changshou and Bai Xu looked at her and frowned.
Bai Xu frowned and said coldly, “That’s your disciple. What does she have to do with me!”
Bai Yu’s neck was suddenly grabbed. The suffocating feeling made her instantly come back to her senses. Her eyes widened in disbelief. She did not expect her beloved Grandma to want her life.
What was she to Grandma? “Grandma
Bai Yu shouted with difficulty.
Bai Liu did not care about her at all. Instead, she stared at Bai Xu coldly and said, “Bai Xu, Bai Yu can be a stranger to others, but not to you. She’s your niece and your elder brother’s daughter. She’s extremely doted on. It took me a lot of effort to steal her. Don’t you want to know where you’re from?”
Not only was Bai Xu shocked and in disbelief, but Su Xiaolu and the others were also in disbelief.
Bai Xu gritted his teeth. “You’re full of lies. Who knows if what you’re saying is true or not?”
Bai Liu sneered. “True or not? Won’t you know if you ask the Ji family in Man Zhou? Go and tell Ji Changyuan that if he wants to exchange Bai Yu’s life, he can use Liu Yuyan’s ashes to exchange for it on Evil Spirit Island.”
Bai Liu grabbed Bai Yu’s neck and retreated. Perhaps because this last sentence made Bai Xu believe her a little, Bai Xu did not go forward again.
Bai Liu held Bai Yu hostage and retreated.
After Bai Liu left, Bai Xu slowly came back to her senses. She kept thinking if Bai Liu’s last words were true.
Hu Changshou said from beside her, “I’ll go to Man Zhou with you to Investigate.”
They would find out if it was true after investigating.
Su Xiaolu walked to Bai Xu’s side and said, “Bai Xu, are you going to make a deal with the Flame Fruit you just took?”
Bai Xu looked at Su Xiaolu and smiled. He said truthfully, “Su Xiaolu, if you want to search for treasures in the Ice Pond, I’m afraid you can’t. The only one that is mature, with the flowers and roots, has already been eaten by Hu Changshou and me. There are indeed many lotus flowers at the bottom of the water, but they haven’t bloomed and you can’t dig them out. It’s useless for you to have the Flame Fruit..”
