Chapter 329 - 261: Lu Xuan, Don’t Do Anything Reckless!
In his view, if he doesn’t resolve Mu Yun early, he might truly end up failing at the hands of this troublesome guy, capsizing in a gutter.
Wo Jiu’s eyes shone with a fierce light, and his right hand’s five fingers were instantly enveloped by a rich purple glow, like five sinister pythons exhaling purple energy, emanating a cold and dangerous aura.
Immediately afterward, his arm, wrapped in a forceful gust, plummeted like a black lightning bolt directly at Mu Yun’s face.
The speed was so fast that it almost tore through the air, without the slightest hesitation.
Because, in Wo Jiu’s heart, he had already weighed the pros and cons and made up his mind.
His move this time was only to cripple Mu Yun’s cultivation, leaving him a crippled life, to drag out an ignoble existence in this world.
After all, slaying the Profound Bird Guard and merely crippling his cultivation are entirely different matters of heaven and earth.
In the former case, Wo Jiu would undoubtedly die afterward; in the latter, there’s still a slim chance for maneuvering.
Wo Jiu knew perfectly well that the Profound Bird Guard, as that Empress’s direct elite force, was heavily relied upon by her.
If he really disregarded everything and killed Mu Yun, with the Empress’s thunderous methods, she would definitely not spare the Wu family easily.
By then, the entire Wu family could be dragged into a monstrous calamity.
And at that time, there might not even be a need for the Empress herself to descend judgment.
The family’s patriarchs, to appease the Empress’s wrath, would undoubtedly and unhesitatingly strike him dead with a single blow.
Offering his life as a scapegoat to quell this storm.
However, just as Wo Jiu’s right palm was about to touch Mu Yun’s face.
A sudden change occurred!
Wo Jiu suddenly felt his right arm come to a halt as if reaching into scalding hot molten magma.
An indescribable scorching pain surged along the meridians of his right arm, causing Wo Jiu immense agony.
In the blink of an eye, Wo Jiu’s entire right arm, at a terrifying speed visible to the naked eye.
Bit by bit, inch by inch, turned to ashes.
Fine blackened dust floated slowly in the air, and some even landed on Wo Jiu’s old face.
A pitch-black shadow, deep and seemingly able to devour everything, silently enveloped, completely covering Wo Jiu’s slightly hunched body.
Wo Jiu was startled, his hair standing on end, almost subconsciously lifting his head instantly to gaze at the source of the shadow.
"Lu Xuan!"
Upon seeing the newcomer, Wo Jiu’s eyes widened in disbelief and anger.
He gritted his teeth and roared furiously, "It’s you again, you bastard junior, playing tricks!"
In response to Wo Jiu’s angry roar, Lu Xuan seemed not to have heard, his expression grim, his gaze directly passing over the opponent.
Then, he steadily focused his eyes on Wo Jiu’s forehead, where there was a bizarre purple pattern.
"Is it the power of the Primordial Spirit again?"
Lu Xuan murmured softly, his voice low but full of certainty.
As Lu Xuan’s voice still lingered in the air, a vast and terrifying force of divine thought and Primordial Spirit burst forth from his body.
Wherever this force of divine thought and Primordial Spirit passed, the air churned violently.
The mysterious oppressive force that originally spread around, almost suffocating the Profound Bird Guard.
Under the impact of Lu Xuan’s divine thought, quickly collapsed.
All the Profound Bird Guard present, including Mu Yun, all their power, was instantly restored to peak condition.
Upon realizing numerous hostile gazes piercing at him, the color on Wo Jiu’s face faded instantly, a wave of panic surging in his heart.
At this moment, Wo Jiu no longer had the arrogance from before, hurriedly speaking, even his voice unconsciously carried a tremble: "Lu Xuan, don’t do anything foolish!"
As he spoke, he involuntarily stepped back half a step, his eyes full of fear and unease.
"I represent the Wu family, here to negotiate with you!"
Wo Jiu tried to use words to stabilize the situation, but his feigned calm tone failed to mask the terror within.
