Slender willows sway in the breeze

Chapter 110 Cousin, Save Me

With Gu Changzhou and Lu Danshi's all-out attack, the black runes of the "Netherworld Dragon Trapping Formation" dimmed instantly, and the formation trembled violently, making cracking sounds.

Immediately, with a crisp sound, the magic array shattered.

Du Xiuwei and the other evil cultivators were struck by the chaotic flow of spiritual energy, spitting out blood and flying backward. Du Xiuwei finally managed to regain her footing, looking at the shattered magic array and her injured subordinates, filled with shock and anger.

Caught off guard by this turn of events, he glared venomously at Master Lu and demanded, "Who are you?"

"Nobody's name is not worth mentioning."

"I just heard them call you Master Lu, are you from the Yougu Palace?"

Master Lu Dan: "I have absolutely no connection with the Yougu Palace."

Du Xiuwei's expression relaxed slightly. If Yougu Palace intervened in this matter, it would be difficult to handle.

Du Xiuwei felt somewhat relieved that Yougu Palace had not been involved in the matter.

But looking at the current situation, he knew he was powerless to change it.

With a resolute look in his eyes, he roared, "Even if I die today, I will take you all with me!"

He forcefully circulated his spiritual power, ignoring the backlash, pushing his spiritual power to its limit. Surrounded by dense and violent black spiritual power, he pounced on Gu Changzhou and Alchemist Lu like a trapped beast.

Gu Changzhou's expression was cold and stern. The Star Sword in his hand shone brightly, and the power of the stars surged out, condensing into a dazzling light screen in front of him.

Master Lu also formed hand seals and chanted incantations, enveloping him and Gu Changzhou in a soft yet powerful white halo of spiritual energy.

Du Xiuwei crashed into the light curtain and halo like a black meteor.

In an instant, the collision of spiritual energy produced a deafening roar like thunder, and light radiated everywhere.

Although Du Wei was fearless, she was ultimately unable to break through the defenses of Gu Changzhou and Lu Danshi. Instead, due to the backlash of spiritual energy, her injuries worsened, and she coughed up a mouthful of black blood.

Seeing their leader like this, the other evil cultivators were filled with fear and lost all will to fight, scattering and fleeing in all directions.

"Cousin, are you okay?"

At this critical moment, Biqing, who should have been in the backyard, suddenly appeared, and she was standing not far from Du Xiuwei.

Du Xiuwei was on her last breath.

Upon seeing Biqing approach, his eyes suddenly lit up, and in a flash, his thin hands had already gripped Biqing's neck.

"Stop if you don't want her to die."

Jiang Tai and the guards all stopped and looked at Gu Changzhou.

Now should be the best time to retaliate, but of all times, Miss Biao has to come.

Why wasn't she there when the fight was at its most intense?

Jiang Tai had initially been quite fond of the cousin, but now he was grinding his teeth so hard they were clicking.

"Ah... Biqing."

The old lady also arrived. If it weren't for Uncle Yun behind her, she would probably be a hostage like Biqing right now.

"Auntie, cousin, save me, save me..."

Bi Qing finally came to her senses, her eyes filled with terror.

"Changzhou, hurry and save Biqing."

Gu Changzhou glanced indifferently at Xiao Qianrui: "Mother, as you have seen, these are all evil cultivators who have committed numerous crimes. Releasing them is tantamount to letting tigers return to the mountains, which will cause endless trouble in the future."

"But she's your cousin, you grew up together, how can you bear to abandon her to her fate?"

Xiao Qianrui's voice became shrill.

Gu Changzhou: "Mother, these people have committed many evil deeds in Zhongzhou City. If we let them go, who knows how many innocent people will suffer in the future? You should understand this." "I don't care. I am your mother. I demand that you save her."

Even if I die?

Xiao Qianrui's eyes changed: "You won't die, but if you don't save Biqing, she really will. I'm begging you, you can catch evil cultivators again later, but Biqing only has one life. I'm begging you!"

Gu Changzhou's lips curled into a cold smile: "I am also very worried about my cousin's safety, but I cannot let momentary leniency lead to a major disaster."

"you……"

Xiao Qianrui's eyes were filled with anger and incomprehension: "You child, how could you become so heartless! Biqing is your cousin, and her life is at stake, yet you're spouting platitudes here. Do you think the lives of those unrelated people are more important than your cousin?"

At this moment, Du Xiuwei, gripping Biqing's neck, gasped for breath and sneered, "Gu Changzhou, stop pretending. If you don't let us go, I'll kill her right now."

As she spoke, she increased the pressure on her hand, and Biqing's face turned even more purple and swollen.

Biqing's face was filled with terror, tears streaming down her cheeks, as she cried out intermittently, "Cousin...save me..."

Master Lu transmitted his voice to Gu Changzhou: "Lord Molin, do not agree to his request. These evil cultivators are untrustworthy. Even if we release them, we cannot guarantee Miss Biqing's safety."

Gu Changzhou nodded slightly, though he didn't speak, his mind was racing to come up with a solution.

"what……"

Biqing screamed again as Du Xiuwei's sharp fingernails dug into her flesh.

His eyes flashed with ruthlessness: "Don't delay any longer. If you don't let go, then drag this woman down with you."

"No, no."

Xiao Qianrui's eyes were terribly red. "Changzhou, do you really want your mother to kneel down and beg you before you'll agree?"

Gu Changzhou's aura was terrifyingly cold.

He knew that Xiao Qianrui loved Biqing, but he never expected that she would go to such lengths for her.

At this moment, Uncle Yun spoke up: "My lord, even if Biqing is your cousin, as a marquis, you are responsible for protecting the safety of the people. Even if the person being held hostage by the evil cultivator is a stranger, you would still have to save him, wouldn't you?"

Gu Changzhou's expression was cold and stern.

At this critical moment, Master Lu secretly channeled his spiritual power, his hands quietly forming a hand seal within his sleeves.

It was an extremely well-hidden spell called "Spiritual Sound Bewitching Spell".

This spell uses spiritual power as a guide, which can be transformed into invisible sound waves to disturb the mind of the enemy.

Lu Danshi's lips parted slightly, but no sound came out. However, Du Xiuwei suddenly felt dizzy, as if a pair of invisible hands were grabbing her forcefully.

His consciousness began to blur, and the hand gripping Biqing's neck unconsciously loosened a little.

Gu Changzhou keenly noticed Du Xiuwei's unusual behavior and realized that Lu Danshi had secretly helped her.

The opportunity was fleeting, and Gu Changzhou instantly pounced on him.

The Star Sword shone brightly, and a dazzling star-like sword aura slashed towards Du Wei.

Du Wei barely regained her senses from the dizziness and was greatly alarmed when she felt the powerful sword energy rushing towards her.

But at this point he was powerless to dodge, and could only do his best to gather the remaining spiritual energy in front of him, forming a black spiritual energy shield.

"boom!"

The sword energy collided with the shield, unleashing a deafening roar, and the powerful spiritual energy surge spread outwards like a storm.

Du Wei's spiritual energy shield shattered instantly under the impact of the Star Sword Qi, and he was also sent flying by the force, crashing heavily to the ground.
