959. Chapter 957: Contending with the Demon Beast

Big brother, what's the matter?

The three brothers all looked at Lin Qingyang, asking doubtfully.

Lin Qingyang frowned and asked, 'I remember you said your boss is Yang Yunfan?'

Yang Yunfan? Upon hearing Lin Qingyang's words, the three brothers were first stunned, then all burst out with mocking smiles.

Big brother, are you an idiot? You actually know our boss? Did you get your brain caught in a door?

The burly man sneered, looking at Lin Qingyang like a country bumpkin.

……

Lu Yuan was currently contending with the demon beast.

Although he was furious, he understood that he had to quickly increase his strength, otherwise he could not help Lin Qingyang at all.

He took a deep breath, striving to calm his emotions.

Suddenly, he heard the conversation between Lin Qingyang and those three guys.

Yang Yunfan?

Could it be that Yang Yunfan sent them over? They want to seize the Storage Ring on this man's finger!

In an instant, Lu Yuan figured it out! 'I won't let them succeed!'

The next moment, Lu Yuan suddenly turned, brandishing his silver spear, and charged at Lin Qingyang and the others! At the same time, he let out a fierce shout: 'Get lost!'

Huh?

Seeing this, Lin Qingyang narrowed his eyes slightly and coldly snorted, 'Courting death!'

After saying that, he lifted his foot and kicked the burly man's belly hard! Boom! A dull impact sound rang out; the burly man screamed, his whole body shot out like a cannonball, shattering the window glass and falling into the lake outside the courtyard.

Damn it!

The slender youth was greatly startled and immediately lunged to the window to investigate.

Seeing this, Lin Qingyang's eyes flashed with cold light; he stepped forward with his right foot, stomping on the slender youth's back, and coldly shouted, 'Don't move, or I'll sever all your meridians!'

Yes, yes...

The slender youth was terrified out of his wits, hurriedly flung himself to the ground, trembling.

Lu Yuan, take care of that man.

Wind and Cloud Decree!

At that moment, Lin Qingyang gave a low shout, lightly tapped his foot, using the reaction force to swiftly leave the house, disappearing from Lu Yuan's sight.

Yes!

Lu Yuan also didn't hesitate, immediately rushing toward the man lying in a pool of blood.

Puchi!

A spear thrust pierced the man's chest, pierced his dantian spirit platform, ruining his cultivation; only then did Lu Yuan withdraw his spear and retreat.

After doing all that, Lu Yuan quickly hurried after the direction Lin Qingyang had gone.

Cough cough cough.

Moments later, the man coughed violently, struggling to sit up and wiping the blood from his mouth.

Lu Yuan... I will not coexist with you!

Seeing Lu Yuan already gone, the man gritted his teeth and hatefully said, 'You dare ruin my dantian? Wait for me—I won't let you off!'

After saying that, he forced his injured body to stand, dragging his utterly exhausted frame toward the end of the street, hoping to find a carriage.

He was severely injured; if untreated, he would surely die tonight.

……

The night over Jiangchengshiqu was very quiet.

There were hardly any pedestrians on the street.

Buzz—

Suddenly, a faint tremor sounded in the air, drawing the attention of those nearby.

Huh? What is that?

This airflow fluctuation seems rather strange.

The streetlights illuminated part of the dark area.

At the edge of the street's shadow, a strange ripple suddenly appeared, slowly spreading from the ground.

Then, a blurry figure slowly emerged from the ripple.

It was a middle-aged man in black clothes, very ordinary in appearance, the type that would blend into a crowd and be unrecognizable. Yet, at the moment he appeared, a terrifying killing intent spread out, lowering the surrounding temperature considerably, as if plunging into an ice cellar.

Whoosh!

The black-clad man stepped forward.

The next moment, his form suddenly turned into a black electric arc, appearing instantly before the severely wounded, dying man.

Pfft!

That man's face turned deathly pale, his pupils unfocused, obviously not long for this world.

Slap!

The man extended his palm and slapped it onto the other's shoulder, pouring a thick surge of spiritual source power into him to help stabilize his life force.

Ah!

Feeling the intense spiritual source power, that man immediately cried out in pain.

Who are you?

The man opened his eyes, discovering he was actually lying in the arms of a stranger, and he was utterly astonished.

Because his memory was very clear.

He had just been ambushed by Lu Yuan, stabbed in the heart, and nearly died.

How in the blink of an eye did I end up in this stranger's embrace? "My name is Yang Yunfan. I came to save you."

Yang Yunfan glanced at that man indifferently.

……

On the other side of Jiangchengshiqu, Lu Yuan was standing on a desolate open space, facing a monster beast shrouded in shadow.

Night fell, moonlight filtered through the sparse clouds onto the ground, and the interplay of light and shadow created a mysterious and dangerous atmosphere.

Lu Yuan slightly bent his body, legs naturally apart, eyes like torches, staring directly at the monster beast.

Its body was huge, mane blazing like fire, claws like blades, flashing with cold light.

The monster beast let out a low growl, as if warning him not to act rashly.

But Lu Yuan remained calm, a confident smile on his face, as if everything was as he had expected.

"Good." Lu Yuan's voice was clear and firm, as if he were speaking to himself and also issuing a challenge to the monster beast.

"Come on." These two simple words were full of provocation, like a match that easily ignited the tense atmosphere between them.

The monster beast's gaze wandered over Lu Yuan, as if assessing the young man who dared to provoke it.

Its nostrils twitched slightly, as if it had caught the human scent in the air, carrying a hint of contempt and anger.

Immediately, it leapt forward, its huge body lunging at Lu Yuan like a small mountain.

"Bring it on!" Lu Yuan's fighting spirit ignited; he pushed off with his feet and shot forward like an arrow.

His movements were agile and swift, like a hawk soaring in the sky, easily dodging the monster beast's pounce.

A gust of wind swept through the air, lifting several dry leaves from the ground to swirl and dance.

At the moment Lu Yuan dodged, he twisted his side, clasped his hands into a fist, and struck hard at the monster beast's flank.

As his fist struck, the air made a soft "hiss" sound, like tearing fabric, imbued with immense power.

The monster beast was hit, let out a muffled grunt, its huge body shifted slightly; it obviously hadn't expected Lu Yuan to have such fierce attacking power.

Its anger was instantly provoked, and it let out an earth-shaking roar that seemed to shake the entire clearing.

"Good!" Lu Yuan felt a surge of excitement, the heat of battle boiling his blood, his whole body feeling as if immersed in flames, instantly sensing a feeling. (End of chapter)
