Above all spirits

Chapter 245 What happened?

Although Gu Yun didn't care about or want to get involved in this turmoil, even though Hua Xin'er had mocked him a few times, Lin Hu wasn't someone who could easily suppress his temper.

Lin Hu had always been wary of Gu Yun. Gu Yun's strength was unfathomable, and he might also have a huge and undeniable power behind him, possibly a hegemonic force. He dared not provoke him, nor could he afford to.

But he knew Hua Xin'er inside and out; she was just a peak Saint Body cultivator. Normally, before he made any breakthroughs, he would have tolerated this, since he had an extra helper.

However, having taken the lead in breaking through the bottleneck of the peak of the Holy Body and reaching the level of half-step innate, he was no longer someone like Hua Xin'er, an ordinary peak Holy Body who had neither abundant wealth to possess various spiritual treasures nor any powerful imperial will, and could easily be taken advantage of.

Even if she has a fashion blogger by her side.

He knew Feng Shangyun; he was famous far and wide, and his background was indeed powerful. However, he was not a direct descendant of the Feng family, and the Feng family would not bother with his ordinary squabbles.

Furthermore, he is a womanizer and a complete playboy. Although he possesses the strength of a half-step innate master, it is mostly illusory, and he could not possibly be his match.

Despite Lin Hu's flattery of Gu Yun, he is ultimately just a petty person, a bully who preys on the weak and fears the strong. He shows no mercy to those weaker than himself.

Lin Hu's face gradually darkened as he watched the two despicable people working together, even criticizing the Heavenly Blade Pavilion repeatedly. He was an honorary elder of the Heavenly Blade Pavilion, and even if it was an honorary title, he was still an elder!

Three fellow disciples were watching from behind.

If he continues to remain indifferent and doesn't even dare to utter a word, how will he ever be able to face the Heavenly Blade Pavilion again if this news gets out?

Suddenly, a resolute glint flashed in his eyes.

Lin Hu took a deep breath, looked down at the silver ring on his index finger, and with a flick of his fingertip, the ring flashed with a glimmer of light.

Suddenly, a gray longsword appeared out of thin air, its blade radiating a chilling aura. The saintly energy on the longsword rapidly gathered, and the blade drew a cold light in the air.

Clearly, this knife is no ordinary item.

Furthermore, this knife was not sheathed when it appeared, clearly indicating that it was a weapon ready for immediate combat.

The long sword trembled slightly, and the toes of the foot stepped out lightly.

In a daze, his body leaped up like lightning, and the long sword in his hand, carrying a terrifying aura, slashed straight at Hua Xin'er.

"Hua Xin'er, you've really given me too much credit. Today I'll show you the difference between us!"

"So you'll never dare to utter such arrogant words again!"

Hua Xin'er's expression changed slightly. She naturally understood the gap between herself and Lin Hu. If they were both at the peak of the Holy Body, they could still fight. But now that Lin Hu had entered the half-step Innate Realm, she would definitely not be able to withstand Lin Hu's offensive. Otherwise, why would she have sacrificed her beauty to get Feng Shangyun to come and help her?

Perhaps it was because Lin Hu's sword strike was too swift, or perhaps he understood that Feng Shangyun was likely just all show and couldn't withstand this strike.

In short, a woman of her character would never remain indifferent and entrust her life to a man she had only met two or three times, especially a philandering man like him. Even if Feng Shangyun was probably planning to step in and defend her, she would have to take the fall herself.

Hua Xin'er's aura ignited instantly, and with a sudden swing of her cherry-red iron fan, it resembled a blooming poisonous flower, creating a gust of wind and air.

Lin Hu raised an eyebrow slightly, showing no concern whatsoever for the fan carrying the aura of a saint. With a single slash, the sweeping wind was instantly split in two like a piece of paper.

Immediately afterwards, Lin Hu turned to the side, and with a swift, flowing motion, swung his blade horizontally towards Hua Xin'er once again.

Hua Xin'er's expression immediately became flustered, and she quickly placed the iron fan in front of her chest.

"Qiang!"

With a loud crash, the longsword and the iron fan collided, producing a piercing metallic clang.

The collision of the two powerful energies caused tremors around the already unstable gap in this space.

After a brief exchange.

Lin Hu only shifted backward one step due to the recoil, while Hua Xin'er's body was uncontrollably pushed backward.

If Feng Shangyun hadn't caught her, she might have been flown off to who knows where.

Feng Shangyun also showed some dissatisfaction at this moment, and said.

"Xin'er, why did you take action on your own? Don't you trust me?"

"I was just about to take that blow for you."

Hua Xin'er didn't care about Feng Shangyun's little emotions. However, when she saw her own embarrassing situation, a look of unwillingness and ruthlessness flashed in her eyes.

This blow made her realize that she absolutely could not win on her own. Although Lin Hu had an annoying temper, his talent for cultivation was truly remarkable. Right now, she could only hope that Feng Shangyun would not bury his impressive background.

Clear-headed!

Hua Xin'er bit her lip lightly, and her entire demeanor changed. She immediately clung tightly to Feng Shangyun's chest like an injured kitten, her head turning slightly, revealing her slender neck and snow-white skin, exuding a breathtaking beauty.

She seemed to know how to show her most vulnerable side, a subtle shyness that quietly permeated the air.

Hua Xin'er, nestled in Feng Shangyun's arms, had a hint of panic in her eyes. Her delicate body trembled slightly, as if the recent confrontation had brought her considerable tension and fear. Her long eyelashes fluttered slightly, stirring the deepest desires in people's hearts.

"Brother Feng, I don't doubt you at all, it's just that Lin Hu's aura is too fierce."

"I really didn't expect that with you by my side, Brother Feng, he would dare to ignore you and attack me."

"That's outrageous."

Hua Xin'er spoke softly, her voice as delicate as silk, as if every word carried an invisible allure, making people subconsciously believe her.

Then, a hint of tenderness flickered in her eyes, and she continued to speak softly, her words tinged with shyness.

"Brother Feng, you have to help me, as long as you can avenge me."

"Tonight, I will do whatever you say."

These seven words were like seven arrows striking Fengshangyun's heart.

Although he has countless top-ranking women in the fashion world, Hua Xin'er's level is clearly not low either!

Feeling the softness in his arms, Feng Shangyun suddenly felt a rush of heat to his head and became somewhat confused.

Looking at the alluring beauty of Hua Xin'er in his arms, his heart churned, and countless intimate images, heavily censored, kept flashing through his mind.

Although he knew that Hua Xin'er's words were full of encouragement and manipulation.

but.

So what?

Does Lin Hu have any impressive background?

No!

Is Lin Hu really that powerful?

No!

Um... being at the half-step innate level does make them a bit more difficult to deal with.

but!

He possessed a pseudo-innate sword aura containing royal-level sword intent; if he used it, he should be able to instantly kill this person.

No problem!
