Yun Yan didn't expect Hu Ying to be so cowardly before he died. This was completely different from when he threatened her before.
However, Yun Yan would not be swayed, and he would not sympathize with this ruthless guy.
Therefore, Yun Yan's long sword did not stop at all.
However, what he never expected was that just when his sword was about to penetrate Hu Ying's neck, a person suddenly stood in front of Hu Ying.
Yun Yan was determined to kill and struck decisively, so his long sword did not leave any chance for Hu Ying to escape.
But when he saw clearly that the person who suddenly appeared was Ye Erniang, it was already difficult for him to withdraw his sword power.
Seeing that Ye Erniang was about to die under her own sword, Yun Yan had no choice but to use the power of chaos to shatter the long sword in her hand into pieces. After losing the blessing of soul power, the cold jade long sword was turned into dust by Yun Yan with the candle's real fire and floated down.
"If I really kill you by mistake, I won't feel a trace of guilt, because you asked for it."
Ye Erniang raised her arm, gently touched her still cold neck and smiled.
"I know, but luckily you didn't kill me."
Yun Yan looked at Ye Erniang and asked in confusion.
"Why?"
"Because he didn't deserve to die."
Yunyan couldn't accept her statement.
"If he doesn't die, I will be in trouble. I don't want to be manipulated anymore, and I don't want to put the people I care about most in danger, because I have had enough of this kind of life."
Ye Erniang didn't know who the person Yun Yan was talking about, but the person who could make him care so much must occupy a very important position in his heart.
Ye Erniang did not dare to expect that she could occupy a place in Yun Yan's heart. She only hoped that Yun Yan could spare Hu Ying's life.
So, Ye Erniang stepped forward and begged Yun Yan softly.
"Just think it's me begging you, okay?"
"Unless you can give me a reason not to kill him, you can't blame me for being selfish."
Yun Yan didn't understand why Ye Erniang did this, so he shook his head slightly and replied.
"This man is ruthless and ruthless. He watches helplessly as you fall into the abyss step by step without doing anything. I can't think of a reason for you to save him."
Having said this, Yun Yan suddenly looked at Ye Erniang with strange eyes and asked.
"Is it because you are in love with him?"
"impossible!"
Hearing this, Ye Erniang blurted out.
"I will never have anything to do with him in my life."
Yun Yan became even more confused upon hearing this.
"Then why did you risk your life to save him?"
Ye Erniang turned her head and glanced at Hu Ying, who looked solemn, and then turned back to Yun Yan and said.
"I have been greatly favored by my master. I watched his old man being killed by a jackal, but I was unable to do anything. Even now, I cannot avenge his old man.
Therefore, I can't let the master's only son in this world go with him. In that case, I will die in peace. "
Only then did Yun Yan react. He looked at Hu Ying in surprise and asked.
"Is she also in your plan?"
Hu Ying endured the severe pain and replied.
"I only know that Er Niang is hiding here. As for whether she will come out to help me, I am not sure."
Yun Yan then looked at Ye Erniang and sneered.
"Did you hear that? He has been using you from the beginning to the end. Is such a person worth your life to save?"
Ye Erniang was silent for a long time before she spoke.
"He is him and I am me. When my master saved me from the brink of death, I owe my life to him. Although our fate as master and apprentice is very shallow, I am his disciple after all.
Now, the life of the master's own flesh and blood hangs by a thread. If I choose to stand by and watch, I will never find peace in my life.
So, I, Ye Erniang, beg you, if you still refuse to let him go, then
Please kill me first. "
As she spoke, Ye Erniang knelt down. She was determined to save Hu Ying, just as she was determined to kill Jackal. However, her doing so made Yun Yan difficult to make a choice.
Finally, as the dark night sky was illuminated by endless light, Yun Yan stretched out her hand to help Ye Erniang up with a look of helplessness, and said.
"Consider me unlucky, who allowed me to meet you before."
Hearing this, Ye Erniang cried with joy.
"Thank you, I..."
Yun Yan saw that Ye Erniang couldn't help but want to pounce on her, so he quickly raised his hand to support her and said.
"You still owe me a cold jade sword. It's a low-grade spiritual treasure. Don't just fool around with it."
"ah?"
Seeing Ye Erniang's surprised look, Yun Yan struck while the iron was hot and said.
"A top-grade treasure is worth about four million gold, and lower-level spiritual treasures are two levels higher than top-grade treasures.
According to the rule that the price difference of each level of magic weapon is five to ten times, so..."
Before Yun Yan could finish her words, Ye Erniang spoke.
"I know, I will compensate you. Even if I go back to help them refine the pregnancy elixir, I will pay you back in full."
Yunyan chuckled upon hearing this.
"Then you will never leave the Night Continent in your life."
At this time, Hu Ying, who was standing behind Ye Erniang, said.
"I will pay for this money. Er Niang is here to save me, so I owe you 80 million gold."
When Yun Yan saw this, she said solemnly.
"After returning to heaven, I will tell Lu Ming that you risked your life to complete the mission with me. As for Jackal, he underestimated the enemy and entered the underground palace, and eventually died in the underground palace."
However, Hu Ying sighed at this time.
"At this point, I might as well tell you another secret, so that I can repay the 80 million gold I owe you."
"Oh, a secret worth 80 million gold, I'm very interested in knowing."
Yun Yan looked at Hu Ying with a smile. He believed that Hu Ying would not disappoint him.
Hu Ying said with a serious expression.
"Actually, master... no, it should be my father. The evil skills he practiced back then originated from Tianque headquarters, and the person who taught him the skills was Lu Ming.
As far as I know, Hu Bao is Lu Ming's third apprentice. I guess you don't know who his first two apprentices were, because even I have only heard about them.
Therefore, Hu Bao is dead now. Instead of avenging his disciple, Lu Ming favors you. You might as well connect these things. I think you will understand Lu Ming's true intention. "
Hu Ying has made his words very clear, and what he said is completely consistent with Yun Yan's previous speculation.
In other words, although he eliminated the threat of Hu Bao and Jackal with the help of Lu Ming, he fell into a bigger trap.
Finally, Yun Yan had to nod and admit.
"Your news is indeed valuable. At least it makes me understand that my situation has not gotten better. Moreover, to deal with an enemy like Lu Ming, I can't be kept in the dark from the beginning. Otherwise, what will happen then? Even the dead ones don’t know.”
As he spoke, he turned his gaze to Ye Erniang and smiled slightly.
"My experience is exactly the same as yours back then, so it doesn't matter if you don't want to believe the Jackal, but you can believe me."
Ye Erniang looked into Yun Yan's eyes and asked in disbelief.
"Are you saying that my master is like Lu Ming and actually wants to take away my soul?"
Yun Yan nodded and replied.
"You may not have believed this kind of thing back then, but now that you have become a different blood soul-condensing body, I believe you are no stranger to stealing other people's talents."
Ye Erniang knew that Yun Yan was still worried about her taking someone else's body, so she said with a guilty look.
"I never thought I would meet you, let alone you have the ability to let
I am reborn, so the me before has died on this continent with that ugly skin. I will not make the same mistakes again in the future. Do you want to believe me? "
Of course Yun Yan is willing to believe that Ye Erniang can change her ways. After all, she is also a victim. Although being victimized is not an excuse for her to act recklessly, Yun Yan herself does not understand the many compulsions involved.
Therefore, he smiled and said to Ye Erniang.
"As long as you believe in yourself, other people's opinions are not important to you. Besides, your character has always been to refuse to admit defeat, so you don't need my approval."
Hearing Yun Yan's words, Ye Erniang's face showed imperceptible disappointment, but Yun Yan could only pretend to turn a blind eye because he had enough troubles now.
Hu Ying spoke at this time.
"Although I don't want to admit it, my father is indeed sorry for Jackal and Er Niang, but as his son, I don't have the courage to stand up and stop all this. I owe Er Niang too much."
However, Ye Erniang didn't care about this at all. She glanced at Hu Ying's broken arm and said lightly.
"I saved your life today, and the debt I owed to the master has been repaid. We don't owe each other. From now on, I, Ye Erniang, will only live for myself."
Seeing that Ye Erniang finally let go of the burden in her heart and regained her life, Yun Yan was naturally happy for her.
However, when he returns to heaven, the troubles he will face may be even more difficult, so he must make certain things clear to Hu Ying.
Just listen to Yun Yan saying to Hu Ying.
"Although we stopped today under Ye Erniang's persuasion, I have hurt you after all. You can naturally claim this hatred from me in the future.
But we have an agreement first. If you want to take revenge, you must wait until the grudge between me and Lu Ming is resolved.
Otherwise, if this matter involves others because of you, the first person I will not let go of is you. "
Hu Ying replied seriously after hearing this.
"Don't worry, since I have revealed Lu Ming's secret to you, I have already put myself in danger. Of course, I will not be stupid enough to seek death myself.
What's more, my purpose is just to take back Lihu Palace and inherit my father's inheritance. As for the rest, I will do what I can. "
Hu Ying's answer was very candid, because after this life and death struggle, he deeply realized the terrifying nature of Yun Yan.
In addition to possessing a powerful life soul talent, he is also able to adapt to circumstances and transform all available external factors into conditions that are favorable to him.
Such a strong man will not remain unknown forever. One day, he will reach a height beyond his reach. Therefore, giving up now is the wisest choice.
Yun Yan didn't know Hu Ying's true thoughts, but he had to be fully prepared for himself and Zhou Ying, because so far, his only weakness was Zhou Ying.
So, Yun Yan nodded slowly.
"Of course this is best. One more friend is better than one more enemy."
Ye Erniang smiled at this time.
"I think no one wants to have an enemy like you, because you are so difficult to deal with."
However, just as Ye Erniang finished speaking, a familiar voice suddenly came from a distance.
"Since you are so difficult to deal with, I can't let you leave the Night Continent alive!"
