After fifteen years of cultivation, he finally reached the pinnacle of the first rank!

Chapter 198 Not enough
In an instant, Han Chuiyuan was enveloped in crimson-gold flames.

The endless burning pain eroded his body, and even the incredibly powerful martial arts true energy within him had no effect whatsoever; he was utterly unable to resist it.

Visibly, Han Chuiyuan's entire body gradually turned into ashes and ash, which were slowly dispersed by the gusts of wind that swept up in the night.

At this moment, the look of shock on his face was slowly freezing.

Han Chuiyuan could hardly believe that Murong Xiaoya was so powerful, and he had no way to deal with the crimson flames on her body that were like maggots gnawing at his bones.

All that awaited him was death in the agony of burning, leaving no trace of his remains.

"To die in the midst of battle, I can say that my death was worthy..."

Han Chuiyuan struggled to speak, but never begged for mercy.

In just a few breaths, he was completely burned away by the crimson flames, leaving only his heart, which turned into blood mist and then condensed into a wisp of essence blood containing a powerful aura, which flowed into Murong Xiaoya's body.

Under the pitch-black night sky, Murong Xiaoya stood in mid-air, her fiery wings, like lava, extending behind her, and her terrifying aura was like a raging storm.

She watched as Han Chuiyuan was burned to ashes, leaving not even a trace of ash, but the murderous intent in her eyes did not diminish in the slightest.

"Not enough, far from enough!"

Murong Xiaoya's eyes blazed with intense light and blood-red flames as she abruptly turned to look in the direction of the Han residence in the city.

Although the main culprits who attacked the Murong family have been executed, Murong Xiaoya's murderous intent is growing stronger.

It seemed that only constant killing could briefly quell the overwhelming grief and anger within her.

"You will pay tenfold, a hundredfold, for destroying my Murong family! I will slaughter you until not a single one of you is left alive!"

The next instant, Murong Xiaoya turned around and disappeared from the spot with billowing flames.

……

After leaving the city, the Han family walked along the official road for a while before turning onto a mountain path.

Inside the carriage, Han Chuiyuan’s eldest son, Han Song, and second son, Han Fu, sat facing each other, with an old man and Xu Qingcang sitting beside them respectively.

"My father told us to leave overnight, so something serious must have happened that he couldn't handle."

Han Fu, with his handsome features, frowned deeply, while Han Song, sitting opposite him, also looked solemn.

"Young masters, please do not worry. General Han is a master strategist and will handle the affairs in the city well. We just need to follow the arrangements and not be a burden to the general."

Xu Qingcang spoke up to comfort him, while the old man opposite him closed his eyes to rest and remained silent.

At this moment, Han Song looked at his younger brother and suddenly asked:
"Where did that demonic master you took on halfway go? Why haven't we seen him along the way?"

Upon hearing this, Han Fu's expression shifted several times, then he said indifferently:
"That old man Wuxiang is seeking revenge for his dead disciple and will not be traveling with us for the time being. However, it is said that his enemy is extremely powerful, and it seems to be the group that killed Baili Changfeng with a single finger in broad daylight today."

Han Song narrowed his eyes slightly and said:

"Really? It seems that the demon really cares about his disciple. Even when facing such a powerful expert, he is willing to take the risk to seek revenge. My brother has really found a good master!"

Faced with his elder brother's sarcastic remarks, Han Fu snorted and said:
“That old man Wuxiang was extremely powerful. If I hadn’t taken the opportunity to become his disciple, I’m afraid both Mr. Xu and I would have lost our lives. If my brother had been in the same predicament as me, I’m afraid he wouldn’t have done any better.”

Upon hearing this, Han Song's gaze turned cold. At that moment, the old man, who had been resting with his eyes closed, suddenly opened them and rushed out of the carriage. Seeing this, Han Song and the other two were stunned, and then quickly jumped out as well, only to see the old man already standing on the top of a towering tree, gazing in the direction of the city.

"Oh no! Something's happened to General Han!"

The old man spoke in a deep voice. Upon hearing this, the three of them changed their expressions and immediately leaped onto a nearby rocky hill, following the old man's gaze.

At this moment, everyone could see that the azure spear light that soared into the sky above the city was extinguished by the crimson-gold fire, and the powerful and domineering terrifying spear aura also dissipated.

"Father!"

The Han brothers exclaimed in unison, both showing expressions of shock and anger, while Xu Qingcang also wore an expression of disbelief.

Meanwhile, in the Mei residence in Shengzhou city.

Hu Ruian and the others all looked up and gazed at a certain spot in the city.

Murong Xiaoya and Han Chuiyuan encountered each other in the sky above the city. Although Han Chuiyuan was almost instantly killed, he still managed to make a move. Moreover, the huge commotion caused by their fight was visible throughout the entire city.

"That must have been Miss Murong's doing! It's incredibly powerful!"

Wu Shang gazed at the crimson-gold flames descending from the sky in the distance and exclaimed in amazement.

Hu Ruian and the others were almost in the same boat. Although they found it hard to believe, in just one night, Murong Xiaoya had gone from a martial arts master to a terrifying strength that even Hu Ruian could not match.

But this matter was confirmed by Li Musheng himself, so even if they didn't believe it, they had no choice but to believe it.

"I don't know if it's just my imagination, but I feel that Miss Murong's aura is much stronger than before!"

Hu Ruian frowned and turned to look at Li Musheng.

Li Musheng looked up into the distance, a thoughtful expression on his face, and said:

"You're not mistaken, Miss Murong is indeed getting more and more amazing."

As he spoke, he touched his chin and said:
"I bet... she has something precious on her."

Upon hearing this, Hu Ruian and the others all looked at Li Musheng. Even the big black cat stared at him with its big green eyes wide open, its face seemingly full of doubt and curiosity.

Seeing this, Li Musheng withdrew his gaze, glanced at everyone, and said:
"Don't look at me. Even if it's a treasure, it belongs to someone else. You can just look at it."

Hu Ruian's eyes flickered, and he said:
"Your Highness, we are simply curious about what kind of treasure could have such miraculous effects, enabling Miss Murong to undergo such a transformative change?"

Li Musheng shook his head and said:
"I don't know about that. If you have the chance in the future, when you meet Miss Murong, you can go and ask her."

Upon hearing this, Hu Ruian's expression immediately changed.

When they met again, his and Murong Xiaoya's strengths were no longer comparable, and they probably wouldn't be able to get along as before.

In just one day, the Murong family was destroyed, Murong Xiaoya underwent a drastic change, and everything seemed to have changed beyond recognition.

Thinking of this, Hu Ruian sighed inwardly, then turned to look at Mei Yan and his wife, and said:
"Your Highness, the transfer orders have now been issued, and the Tianjin Guard of Shengzhou will be heading to Lanzhou immediately. I wonder what should be done with those two?"
