Chapter 299: Chapter 300 United as One (Part 2)
For a moment, everyone in the Xiao Family climbed up from the ground, their tenacious figures standing tall in the gentle breeze.
“Family Head, let’s break through the barrier together!”
In a large family like the Xiao Family, many were secretly calculating against their own kin, and there was no shortage of grudges and disputes. However, at this moment, they all set aside their differences to face the powerful enemy at their doorstep.
Madam Sheng Yue covered her lips, crystal tears flowing down between her fingers.
She had never imagined that because Mu Ruyue had chosen to face Nangong Zifeng alone to protect the Xiao Family, it could cause these old stubborn men to unite as one.
Perhaps this daughter was indeed their Xiao Family’s savior…
“Ancestor, I wonder if you would feel comforted to see the Xiao Family now,” Elder Xiao said, smiling contentedly as he saw the family united as one.
He turned his gaze towards Mu Ruyue standing in the midst of the storm, sighing softly, “Perhaps choosing her as the Xiao Family’s inheritor was the most correct decision, because she possesses the capability to bring the Xiao Family to its peak.”
This young girl had brought countless miracles to the family…
Inside the storm, Mu Ruyue stood against the wind, her once-white clothes now tattered and old, with fresh blood seeping from the wounds on her body, quickly forming scabs.
Yet she seemed to be oblivious to the pain as if from countless ice knives, her sword slashing toward the blizzard before her like a Fire Dragon. But the power of the Intermediate Innate was too overwhelming, and gradually, Mu Ruyue began to falter.
Then, she took out a bottle of Elixir from her Space Ring and swallowed it whole, and instantaneously, her pale complexion began to recover…
Xiao Tianyu’s fists, wrapped in Flames, hammered onto the barrier. He was repelled by the force of the barrier, but he did not give up and stood up to meet it once more.
“Mu Ruyue, you are destined to be no match for me!”
Nangong Zifeng watched the disheveled Mu Ruyue, laughing scornfully. She had lost to this woman in her last life, but in this one, she had a greater advantage. She would trample her underfoot and humiliate her at will.
Only that could vent the raging fury in her heart.
Mu Ruyue seemed not to hear her, her once white clothes now soaked with fresh blood, her hair knocked about by the roaring cold wind—she appeared like a devil who had walked out of hell from afar.
She clenched the sword in her hand, continuously channeling her Qi into the blade, then lifted it and in that moment, an intense Firestorm burst forth from the sword, crashing into the air with a thunderous impact.
A spray of fresh, red blood scattered into the air like a rain of blood.
Mu Ruyue’s body weakened, and she fell from the sky, gently lifting her exquisite face to look at the colliding storms in the void.
Flame clashed with ice and snow; the shockwaves spread from both, shattering the surrounding trees, with the smell of gunpowder permeating the air.
Nangong Zifeng’s expression darkened. She clenched her sword and charged toward Mu Ruyue. In that instant, a mighty killing intent spread out, heavily pressing down on Mu Ruyue.
“In such a short time, you really have grown a lot, but what of it? Mu Ruyue, without your once weapon at hand, you will absolutely not defeat me!”
This woman had grown too terrifyingly fast, at a pace that left her far behind.
If it had not been for the power she had retained from her previous life before her rebirth, she probably wouldn’t have been a match for Mu Ruyue. And if she didn’t kill her now, it probably wouldn’t take long for Mu Ruyue to surpass her!
