In that case...’ Lu Jing thought, looking at Zhen Yuan with meaningful eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A moment later, he raised his sword and released his sword intent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon after, the sword intent diffused onto the stage and Zhen Yuan couldn’t help but frown in discomfort.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’What is he planning?’ He wondered, but most of the spectators weren’t as confused.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fellow Daoist Lu is about to use his monarch sword.\" A spectator said in an excited voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Monarch sword? Is it the huge sword he used in the previous attack?\" Another asked, but his friend shook his head and began explaining.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The previous attack was fellow Daoist Lu’s sword intent domain and has little to do with his monarch sword style.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What do you mean? What is the monarch sword style?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s an overbearing sword style that allows no resistance, just like a monarch.\" The person said and quickly continued.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The opponent can only surrender or die when fellow Daoist Lu uses his monarch sword.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is it so powerful?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I heard that facing the monarch sword is like facing the aura pressure of a higher realm cultivator. One can only stand there and wait for death.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Some weak-willed opponents can’t even stand and end up kneeling.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unfortunately, Zhen Yuan was least afraid of intimidation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although he felt the sword pressure, his heart didn’t waver, and he casually lifted his sword.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’It’s time to end this.’ He thought, but suddenly frowned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A moment later, he hastily turned around and swung his sword in a circle around him. Instantaneously, a silver sword light barrier appeared, but Zhen Yuan didn’t relax.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instead, he tried to form another sword light barrier, but his speed could not keep up with the incoming attacks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before the second barrier could form, an overbearing sword fell towards him, and Zhen Yuan surmised it was Lu Jing’s monarch sword.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Simultaneously, a dozen attacks flew from all around and randomly hit the barrier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under numerous attacks, the barrier could not hold and collapsed in less than two breaths.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, Zhen Yuan frowned and continued to block, but he was only one person and couldn’t defend against so many ambush attacks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the blink of an eye, countless attacks hit him and his body was flung out, almost flying off the stage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Zhen Yuan was not weak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although he was seriously injured, he was conscious and reacted quickly. Before his body flew out, he used his qi to stop his flight and forcibly land on the stage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, an angry roar echoed in the square, and a streak of fire was seen rushing from one side of the stage and grabbing a masked cultivator.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Simultaneously, a dozen formation disks flew about, and several masked cultivators were caught in them before the disks fell to the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everything happened so fast that the spectators didn’t realise what had happened until the ambush was over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this time, everyone was looking around with either a confused or shocked expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Who dares to interfere with a challenge I am overseeing?\" An angry voice resounded in the square as Luo Jianfeng flew towards Zhen Yuan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Disciple Zhen, how are you?\" He asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I am fine.\" Zhen Yuan said, his eyes narrowed into slits.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although he was seriously injured, he didn’t plan to reveal his condition.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, revealing his weakness would encourage the mastermind to act again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Disciple Shen, bring the person over.\" Luo Jianfeng instructed after ensuring Zhen Yuan was fine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing the instructions, Shen Xu nodded and dragged the masked person towards Luo Jianfeng while using his qi to retrieve the formation disks he had previously thrown out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After arriving, he dropped the person in front of Luo Jianfeng and wordlessly walked to stand beside Zhen Yuan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Ayuan, how are you?] He transmitted in a worried voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He reacted first because he was always looking at Zhen Yuan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, he chose to catch the perpetrators instead of assisting his Taoist partner.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On one hand, it was because he trusted Zhen Yuan and knew the man could handle the matter, and on the other, helping would invalidate the challenge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Knowing that Zhen Yuan also wanted to win the challenges, Shen Xu forcibly suppressed his instincts and caught the perpetrators instead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Injured but fine.] Zhen Yuan said and raised his hand to rub the double’s hair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[You did well.] He said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[I wanted to help you.] Shen Xu said in an aggrieved voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[I know.] Zhen Yuan said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Ayuan, hurry up and transfer your injuries to me.] The double said and quickly continued.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[I will recover faster since I can take healing and other pills.] He said, but Zhen Yuan shook his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Xiaoxu, you still have the martial arts challenge and can’t be injured when you go on stage.] The man said, but Shen Xu was not convinced.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[There is still time before the martial arts challenge.] The double argued.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[We don’t know that. It could be the seventh challenge.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Ayuan...] Shen Xu started, but Zhen Yuan interrupted him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Xiaoxu, I can still carry these injuries. I don’t want to use the transfer ability unless it’s really necessary.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[You...]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[I will definitely let you help me if there is no other way.] Zhen Yuan said, and Shen Xu could only sigh in frustration.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’If only there was a way to forcibly transfer the injuries.’ He thought and decided to research the matter when he had some free time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While Shen Xu and Zhen Yuan were secretly talking, Luo Jianfeng began interrogating the masked cultivator.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unfortunately, before the person could say a word, he lost his breath and his body collapsed on the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He is a dead soldier.\" Luo Jianfeng said with a solemn expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Most prominent families in the Tianxuan continent raised dead soldiers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dead soldiers were originally orphans or abandoned children taken from the streets or bought in the black market.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The prominent families specifically trained them as sacrificial pawns to die in place of their masters or to carry out secret tasks for the families.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing that the ambushers were dead soldiers, neither Shen Xu nor Zhen Yuan was surprised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, dead soldiers were trained to kill themselves if they were captured during a mission. This way, they wouldn’t bring trouble to the families behind them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He may be a dead soldier, but he has a soul. It’s still possible to search his soul.\" Shen Xu said with an indifferent expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, he walked to the corpse and placed his hand on its forehead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A moment later, he removed his hand and subconsciously frowned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What’s wrong?\" Zhen Yuan asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"His memory was erased.\" The double said and tilted his head with a thoughtful expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I used formation disks to trap all the ambushers. They should still be alive.\" Shen Xu said, waved his hand, and a dozen formation disks appeared on the palm of his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, before he could do anything, a group of people flew onto the stage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Disciple Shen, you should leave this matter to the disciplinary hall.\" The leader said, and Shen Xu sneered with a mocking expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How does the disciplinary hall intend to handle it?\" He asked and intentionally collected the formation disks inside his left sleeve.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He did not trust the disciplinary hall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>First, it had been an incense stick since the ambush happened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the disciplinary hall people only appeared when they heard that the perpetrators in the formation disks were alive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What did this mean?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It meant that the group of disciplinary hall members were somehow involved with the ambush.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We will naturally question the dead soldiers and give the two disciples an explanation.\" The leader said, but Shen Xu was not deceived.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Dead soldiers would rather die than betray their masters. How does the disciplinary hall plan to extract information from them?\" He continued asking, and the leader finally lost his patience.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The methods of my disciplinary hall are not a disciple’s turn to question. Hurry up and hand over the suspects.\" The leader insisted, but Shen Xu turned to Luo Jianfeng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Elder Luo, my Taoist partner and I are the wronged parties. Are we obligated to hand over the suspects?\" He asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sect allowed disciples to fight each other.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, killing was prohibited within the sect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, the masked cultivators ambushed Zhen Yuan, but no one was killed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Considering this, Shen Xu felt there was a loophole they could exploit to prevent the disciplinary hall from taking the dead soldiers.\u003C\u002Fp>",1532,"2026-06-06T02:30:15.893Z",1,"novelbin.me","62f34fd13dadde259a714e01cc6706ecafd7fd370cb94001a9c4a2bceffbd03b","falling-in-love-to-escape-the-original-book-plot-chapter-401","falling-in-love-to-escape-the-original-book-plot-chapter-399",498,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Ffalling-in-love-to-escape-the-original-book-plot-cover.jpg"]
