Chapter 807 807: Killing You Would Dirty My Hands!
How could this happen?
Yu Junling only felt her vision darken, on the verge of fainting. Who could have done this? The Yan Yu Sect bore no grudges against anyone. Who would destroy the Yan Yu Sect's headquarters without any reason!?
The surrounding trees had all been burned, turning into a scorched land.
The originally exquisitely built pavilions and towers had now become ruins, charred everywhere, burned to the ground swiftly, with hardly any intact places visible.
Yu Junling's delicate body trembled slightly, her fists clenched tightly, and a sound of vibration came from the surrounding air—her internal force burst out involuntarily, causing the air to emit a whining sound!
She was furious!
When a Grandmaster of Transcendence is furious, their internal force radiates outward, shattering the air, equivalent to a full-force blow of Open Force. This is indeed possible.
She had every reason to be angry.
This headquarters of the Yan Yu Sect was outside Moyi City, in the mountains. She designed it herself, chopped the trees, laid the foundation, and then personally turned the wood into building materials, carved patterns, and finally constructed it.
Personally!
Building the sect headquarters bit by bit!
It had only been less than a month since she had recruited the first person to join the sect, someone with unparalleled talent and significant potential!
Before coming here, Yu Junling even thought about how Qin Heng would marvel at the grandeur and elegance of the sect's headquarters. She even dreamed of the Yan Yu Sect developing and becoming powerful in the future.
She looked forward to a time when the Yan Yu Sect would become strong, known to the world, renowned across the land. At that time, her family and friends would only need to mention the name of the Yan Yu Sect, and no one would dare to bully them!
This was Yu Junling's ideal, or one could call it her dream.
Simple yet very real, her starting point was just to protect her family and friends, not letting them get hurt in the future's spiritual rejuvenation upheaval.
The headquarters she built herself in this mountain was the place where her dream began.
But now, the headquarters had turned into ruins.
Seeing this ruin, Yu Junling felt as if her dreams had shattered, rendering her whole life utterly meaningless.
However, along with this despair and desolation, a towering rage surged forth. She was furious to the extreme, clenching her fists, her internal force surged, lifting her right foot and stomping it down fiercely!!
Boom!!
The martial power of the Transcendence Realm was exceptionally strong. When Yu Junling stomped her foot, the ground trembled, the already fragile supports of the building ruins crumbled instantly.
With several cracking sounds, the ruins emitted waves of roar, continuing to collapse, sending thick smoke and dust into the sky, making the surrounding air turbid.
Boom!
"Why, who did this!?" Yu Junling's voice trembled as she shouted at the sky, tears welled up in her eyes as she cried out loudly, "Who, who!? Dare to do it but not admit it!?!"
The burn marks on the ruins were very fresh, and when she arrived, she could even see some smoke and unextinguished flames, suggesting it happened not long ago, and those responsible probably hadn't gone far.
"Miss Yu, shouldn't you have expected who did it?" A voice full of ridicule came from the distant forest, then a young man wearing ancient robes, gentle and refined, walked out.
He looked to be in his twenties, with a jade-like face, extraordinarily handsome, hair styled like that of ancient talents, a crown on his head, and a mustache, looking like a prince or scholar from ancient times.
"Zhu Lang! It was you indeed!" Upon seeing the man, Yu Junling's brows stood on end with anger, saying, "Why, why did you burn my heart and soul!?"
This was the place where her dream began!
"If I didn't burn down this broken house and cut off your unrealistic dreams, how would you follow me?"
Zhu Lang chuckled and said, "Miss Yu, I fancy you. It's a blessing you've accumulated in your past life. If you don't agree, you're wasting your fortune, you know."
"Get lost! Get lost from my sight!!" Yu Junling trembled with rage, her gaze toward Zhu Lang filled with killing intent, yet she didn't make a move, not even daring to.
She also spared some thought to protect Qin Heng beside her.
She knew she was not Zhu Lang's opponent. This person, who looked like an ancient scholar, was indeed an ancient person—a Semi-Saint from the Ming Dynasty!!
Lived for hundreds of years!
"When I retreat later, leave with me immediately," Yu Junling's voice suddenly sounded in Qin Heng's ear, saying, "If he stops me, I'll block him. You just escape. This has nothing to do with you."
She actually intended to block Zhu Lang herself to let Qin Heng escape.
"Haha, truly touching and affectionate!" Zhu Lang sneered. With his Semi-Saint level cultivation, Yu Junling's faint voice couldn't escape his perception. "Miss Yu, what's so good about this worthless person by your side? Is he really worth your concern?"
"He's just an ordinary person I encountered by chance. I wanted to invite him to join my Yan Yu Sect. Don't vent your anger on him." Yu Junling stood in front of Qin Heng and said to Zhu Lang, "He's innocent."
"As long as he got close to you, he's not innocent!" Zhu Lang slightly raised his chin, squinting, looking at Qin Heng with contempt, and said, "You coward hiding behind a woman, if you have any courage, stand up and compete with me!"
"Zhu Lang, you are shameless!" Yu Junling shielded Qin Heng more closely, glaring at Zhu Lang, saying, "Qin Heng is just an ordinary person, yet you, a Semi-Saint, have the face to compete with him??"
"Hahaha, beneath the Saints, all are ants. Both he and I are ants, so why can't we compete?"
Zhu Lang laughed heartily, very pleased, and said, "Of course, as long as he kneels before me, kowtows and swears that if he ever sees you in the future, his entire family will be wiped out if he violates, I can let him go and spare this worthless dog life!"
"You!!" Yu Junling was so angry she couldn't even speak. She took a deep breath and said, "The matters between Qin Heng and us have no connection at all. How can you, a disciple of the Zhu family Saint, be so unreasonable?"
"Reason?" Zhu Lang sneered, standing with his hands behind his back, extremely arrogant, "I am reason! You only have to obey, Yu Junling. I don't care to waste more words with you!
Now, immediately be with me, and let that worthless person behind you kneel to me. I might spare his life, or else I won't just kill him, but also exterminate his entire family! A mere worthless person, how dare he compete with me for a woman, courting death!!"
"You, are you Zhu Xi's disciple?" Qin Heng suddenly stepped out from behind Yu Junling, his gaze landing on Zhu Lang, calmly saying, "You might as well commit suicide. It's beneath me to dirty my hands by killing you."
