891. Chapter 889: Endless Dispute

「Huh? Not good! 」

From deep within the poison mist, a muffled grunt suddenly sounded; immediately after, a burst of green light flared up, emitting a chilling aura, and vanished instantly.

Boom! The next moment, a violent roar echoed in all directions, the entire mountain forest trembling incessantly! "Hmph! Trivial tricks!"

Yun Xianghan arrogantly rebuked coldly, her eyes icy to the extreme.

After enduring the interference and obstruction of the Soul-Devouring Poison Mist, she finally broke free from the other party's entanglement.

However, she felt no joy at all; instead, her eye twitched and her expression turned solemn.

Because just as she swung that fist shadow, a wisp of faint blue ghostly light had already coiled around the Soul-Devouring Poison Mist and silently entered the back of her neck.

「Damn it! It's actually a poison needle! 」

Sensing this strange spiritual power, Yun Xianghan's eye twitched wildly and her expression became extremely solemn!

This poison needle contained deadly poison and had cleverly slipped beneath the surface of her skin, like a tiny snake lurking under the skin.

Even if she exerted all her strength to mobilize her robust bloodline spiritual power to suppress it, she still could not completely dispel it.

Fortunately, Lu Yuan happened to be passing by this place.

Otherwise, she would have had no idea what to do.

The opponent not only had preparations in advance, but was also skilled in concealed weapon techniques, and possessed such a rare and vicious poison! "No way! I must find a place to refine this poison needle, otherwise once the opponent notices, I will surely die! 」

Yun Xianghan's eye twitched wildly; she immediately flickered and darted deep into the mountain forest.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Almost as she fled, a violent roar erupted from mid-air.

Blinding golden spiritual light burst forth wildly, instantly engulfing vast expanses of the poison mist.

Yun Xianghan gritted her teeth and shouted angrily, her heart burning with anxiety.

Jin Yuanlang is immensely strong, and with some unknown trump cards, in this clash she is certainly no match for him!

More importantly, she also had to worry about Lu Yuan's situation and dared not be distracted.

However, fortunately Jin Yuanlang's strength, though strong, is still slightly inferior to hers in cultivation realm.

Moreover, although this poison mist is formidable, it can only trap her for a moment and is not enough to be lethal.

So she still had a chance to shake off the pursuer and seek help! Yun Xianghan took a deep breath, forcing herself to calm down.

At this moment, she was not far from the Yun family manor, yet she did not rashly return; instead, she continued onward into the depths of the valley.

Moments later, a burly figure came toward her.

「Huh? 」 Yun Xianghan frowned slightly, a hint of wariness flashing in her eyes.

Although she had not heard any battle sounds, and Lu Yuan was closely following behind, she did not stop but instead sped up, continuing to flee forward.

Whoosh! Suddenly, Lu Yuan stepped on his flying sword, tearing through the air to arrive and block her path.

Yun Xianghan's eye narrowed sharply; she immediately adjusted her posture and assumed a stance.

The moment she saw the man's face clearly, a flash of surprise crossed her eyes.

「How is it you again? ！」

Lu Yuan's brows furrowed slightly, his face full of displeasure: "What's wrong with you woman, why do you keep haunting me？"

「Hmph! 」 Yun Xianghan gave a cold smile, a hint of mockery flickering in her eyes.

「How, do you dislike me so much？」

「Cut the nonsense, get lost right now! Don't forget who helped you heal your wounds and save your life back then！」

Lu Yuan said coldly, then pointed at Yun Xianghan, his face darkening to the extreme.

「Heh, you helped me heal my wounds? I don't recall that at all。」

Upon hearing that, Yun Xianghan couldn't help but let out a cold snort, her pretty face covered in a frosty glare.

「You… you…」 Lu Yuan's face turned livid, his chest heaving violently with anger.

He had originally only wanted to use this matter to scare that willful girl, but he never expected her to be completely unmoved.

「You're really quite cunning！」

Lu Yuan gritted his teeth and shouted angrily, killing intent flaring in his eyes.

「Cunning? 」 Yun Xianghan shook her head with a cold smile, her face full of contempt.

「Heh, I don't think so; rather, you're just too naive. 」 「You! 」 Lu Yuan's eye twitched wildly upon hearing that, his face growing even uglier.

「Hmph, if that's the case, don't blame me for turning against you and refusing to acknowledge you！】

Before his words even finished, Lu Yuan's killing intent surged, and purple light suddenly erupted all around him.

「You don't know what's good for you! Since you're so stubborn, let you experience how fearsome Jin Yuanlang's poison needle is！」

Before his voice even faded, Lu Yuan's figure flickered, turning into a purple shadow as he lunged at Yun Xianghan.

「Hmph! Do you really think you can defeat me with just your own strength？」

Yun Xianghan's eyes blazed with killing intent, blue light surging all over her; as she thrust out a palm, she suddenly retreated, racing deep into the mountain forest.

「Want to run? Too late！」

Lu Yuan's face sank, golden light bursting forth all around him, his speed suddenly increasing severalfold.

Whoosh!

In the blink of an eye, he had closed in beside Yun Xianghan; shaking his arms, two blades shot out like lightning.

These two blades were pitch-black, flashing with a chilling light, obviously coated with some deadly poison.

「Trivial tricks！」

Yun Xianghan gave a cold shout, pressing her right hand's five fingers together and slammed them hard toward the blades.

Bang—boom! Accompanied by a frenzied explosive sound, the three blades snapped into several pieces.

Yet the broken blades' residual force did not diminish; they suddenly stabbed again toward Yun Xianghan's shoulder.

Yun Xianghan's eyes turned cold, and she swept out with her right leg.

Crack—, slap!

Accompanied by several bone‑shattering cracking sounds, the three blades completely collapsed.

But at that moment, Lu Yuan showed no hesitation and leapt up again; at the same time, a crimson soft armor suddenly appeared on his left hand.

Buzz! As soon as the soft armor appeared, it released a strong flame spiritual aura.

Yun Xianghan's expression changed, and she instinctively tried to dodge, but it was already too late.

"Blow up!"

Lu Yuan gave a cold shout, flicked his wrist, and the crimson soft armor suddenly burst apart, turning into several flames that swept out, enveloping Yun Xianghan's entire body.

"Ah!"

Yun Xianghan let out a miserable cry, engulfed by the flames, her body instantly scorched black, billowing white smoke.

"Hmph, where do you think you can run?"

Seizing the opportunity, Lu Yuan gave a cold shout, leapt forward again, and with a palm strike from afar, several waves of spiritual power like huge surges rolled in, completely enveloping Yun Xianghan.

"No……"

Accompanied by a piercing miserable cry, Yun Xianghan's body exploded, and she died instantly on the spot.

"Hiss!"

After dealing with Yun Xianghan, Lu Yuan involuntarily exhaled a sigh of relief, and a bead of cold sweat appeared on his forehead.

……

However, before going to pick the spirit medicine, Lu Yuan had to do something important.

Yun Xianghan had died, but the treasures she left behind had not yet been retrieved; they had to be found quickly.

Lu Yuan frowned slightly, and after a careful search, he found a hidden compartment deep in the mountain cave.

As he slowly pushed open the stone door, the hidden compartment revealed an ancient‑looking jade box and a pile of glittering spirit stones.

"Azure Flame Lotus, it's really here!"

Lu Yuan's eye twitched, and the corner of his mouth curled into a smile.

Now that he had the Azure Flame Lotus in hand, Lu Yuan felt extraordinarily refreshed and wanted to let out a long whistle to the heavens.

However, recalling his previous encounter, he still felt a chill down his spine. (End of chapter)
