Chapter 436

Saying this, Yang Xiao stretched out his finger toward Su Hang, signaling Su Hang to look in the direction he was pointing.

Following Yang Xiao's finger, Su Hang noticed that Zhou Zhou Zhiruo was hiding not far away, secretly observing him. Seeing this, Su Hang smiled bitterly and shook his head; he didn't need to guess to know that his conversation with Yang Xiao had definitely been heard by her. ===== CHAPTER 844 =====

"Brother Su, I..." Seeing Su Hang look at her, Zhou Zhou Zhiruo's pretty face flushed.

Su Hang shook his head. "Don't misunderstand. You saved my life; how could I, Su Hang, be an ungrateful person? Although you and I are not friends, I will not vent my anger on you because of this."

Hearing this, Zhou Zhou Zhiruo's expression eased slightly.

"I just hope you can protect yourself well." Su Hang continued. Although these words were a bit hurtful, Su Hang felt it was better to be clear. After all, he already had a wife, and in the end, there would likely only be one path left between him and Zhou Zhou Zhiruo: to be enemies.

Su Hang's words clearly struck a chord in Zhou Zhou Zhiruo's heart. At this moment, she was very conflicted. She didn't like Su Hang, but she couldn't bear to refuse, because Su Hang was her only motivation to live.

Pondering for a moment, Zhou Zhou Zhiruo bit her lip and said, "Young Master Su, although Zhou Zhiruo doesn't like you, today, I want to tell you something from my heart, I..."

Su Hang waved his hand. "Miss Zhou, we are just strangers meeting by chance, isn't it too early to say these things?"

"Uh, right." Su Hang's words were undoubtedly a bucket of cold water poured on her. Zhou Zhou Zhiruo instantly woke up, hurriedly shook her head, and laughed self-deprecatingly. "Young Master Su, thank you!"

Saying this, Zhou Zhou Zhiruo left the place.

As for Zhang Zhang Wuji on the other side, he had returned to the Ming Sect, but a Ming Sect disciple hurried over. "Young Master, our Ming Sect disciples have been ambushed by the Demonic Sect, and the losses are heavy!"

Zhang Zhang Wuji was shocked and hurriedly asked what happened. The result was shocking; he never expected that the Demonic Sect had come out in full force this time, with a full thirty-plus people.

Among them, there were many experts, especially the flag leaders of the Five Elements Flags; the internal energy of these people was very powerful.

Seeing the true foundation of the Demonic Sect for the first time, Zhang Zhang Wuji couldn't help but curse inwardly. The Demonic Sect was too arrogant to come to the Ming Sect to make trouble, and judging by the situation, this was not the first time the Ming Sect had suffered an attack from the Demonic Sect.

Zhang Zhang Wuji looked coldly at the Deputy Flag Leader of the Fire Qilin Flag opposite him. This was the leader of the Five Elements Flags, and his Wu Gong was even more powerful than Li Mongolian Yuan and the others.

His name was Lu Cheng, and he was only in his forties. He was quite famous in the Wu Lin, but unfortunately, he met someone with the monstrous talent of Zhang Zhang Wuji.

"Deputy Flag Leader Lu, what do you mean by this?" Zhang Zhang Wuji questioned coldly.

Lu Cheng sneered. "Little brat Zhang Wuji, stop playing dumb. The Demon Lord has already issued an order for my Five Elements Flags to lead the crowd to break the Ming Sect. You all retreat quickly, otherwise, don't blame this old man for being unreasonable."

"Presumptuous!"

A roar erupted abruptly. Zhang Zhang Wuji's expression changed violently, and he suddenly drew the Heaven-Reliant Sword, slashing through the air. The distance of several zhang was covered in the blink of an eye.

"Petty tricks!"

Lu Cheng snorted coldly, his right hand grabbing into the void. Immediately, a black, circular magic artifact appeared out of thin air. Once the artifact appeared, golden light bloomed, spreading with the wind, and in an instant, it turned into a barrier, actually blocking Zhang Zhang Wuji's sword light head-on.

"This is?"

Zhang Zhang Wuji was terrified. He could feel that this magic artifact seemed to be specifically designed to restrain his Heaven-Reliant Sword.

"Hehe!" Lu Cheng grinned. "Little brat Zhang Wuji, I advise you to surrender obediently, otherwise, if I accidentally injure you, don't blame me for being ruthless."

While speaking, the aura on Lu Cheng's body surged, pressing straight toward Zhang Zhang Wuji.

Zhang Zhang Wuji didn't dare to fight head-on, so he immediately sheathed his sword and turned to flee. ===== CHAPTER 845 =====

"Where are you going!"

Lu Cheng wouldn't let him slip away and immediately chased after him.

"Swish!"

However, just then, a sword light shot in from the side, piercing through Lu Cheng's side and knocking down a giant tree on the summit.

The giant tree collapsed with a boom.

Lu Cheng's expression changed drastically. He turned his head and saw a woman covered in white cloth standing on the treetops, staring at him with a cold gaze.

"Who are you?"

Lu Cheng frowned and asked. He had thought this person was also from the Demonic Sect, but he didn't expect this woman not to be, though he didn't know why she would stop him from capturing Zhang Zhang Wuji.

The woman didn't answer, her toes lightly touching the branches, and she drifted down from the summit with elegance, landing steadily in front of the two.

Zhang Zhang Wuji looked up at the woman. She was stunningly beautiful, her skin delicate, her figure slender, wearing a purple dress with a silk ribbon around her waist, looking exceptionally charming.

This person was Zhou Zhou Zhiruo. She was acting on Su Hang's orders to come here to help Zhang Zhang Wuji, only because Su Hang had calculated Zhang Zhang Wuji's death calamity.

Now, Lu Cheng looked at Zhang Zhang Wuji and Zhou Zhou Zhiruo, but he just snorted coldly, not caring about the two at all. His mission was only to capture Zhang Zhang Wuji; as for the others, he didn't care.

Whether it was Zhang Zhang Wuji or Zhou Zhou Zhiruo, they were both mortal enemies of their Demonic Sect. Since both sides were already at odds, he would just wipe them all out.

Thinking of this, Lu Cheng immediately gave a cold shout, "Kill!"

Immediately, the other four experts of the Five Elements Flags jumped up, each using their own methods to rush forward, surrounding Zhang Zhang Wuji in an instant.

These people were each comparable to first-class experts.

Such a formation would be difficult for an ordinary second-class expert to handle. Zhang Zhang Wuji fought five experts alone, naturally under great pressure. After a fierce battle, he began to show signs of defeat and was forced to bring out the Heaven-Reliant Sword to join the melee.

Zhou Zhou Zhiruo on the side didn't move, just watching quietly, waiting for an opportunity to strike.

After a while, a flash of light suddenly appeared in Zhou Zhou Zhiruo's eyes, and her right hand, gripping the long whip, suddenly lashed out.

A sharp whip shadow cut through the night sky, as if tearing through the darkness, fast as lightning, lashing onto Li Mongolian Yuan's shoulder. Skin and flesh split open, and blood splattered.

Li Mongolian Yuan felt the pain, covered his shoulder, and retreated staggeringly. Zhou Zhou Zhiruo took advantage of the situation to get close, flipped her palm, clamped the tail of the whip with two fingers, and pulled and tugged. The whip shadow suddenly split into three, like a snake, winding toward Li Mongolian Yuan.

Li Mongolian Yuan was terrified and hurriedly dodged, but he still couldn't escape the entanglement of the whip shadow. His body was bound by the whip, and he fell to the ground, trembling constantly, staring at Zhou Zhou Zhiruo with eyes full of fear. His previous arrogance had vanished.

"Zhou Zhou Zhiruo, what do you mean by this?"

Seeing this, Lu Cheng frowned. Zhou Zhou Zhiruo had actually attacked their Five Elements Flags people on the spot; this was simply humiliating them.

"Deputy Flag Leader Lu, why don't you let me get rid of him for you!" Zhou Zhou Zhiruo said indifferently.

Hearing this, Lu Cheng was stunned for a moment, then reacted. Zhou Zhou Zhiruo wanted to use this to suppress their Demonic Sect, which surprised him.

However, this thought only circled in his mind for a moment before Lu Cheng nodded and whispered a few words to the four flag leaders beside him. The four flag leaders immediately took orders and left.

Li Mongolian Yuan saw this and started yelling. He was already no match for Zhang Zhang Wuji, and after being injured by Zhou Zhou Zhiruo, his strength was even weaker. Now, he could only be beaten. ===== CHAPTER 846 =====
