Chapter 63.2

Shang Ruifeng’s figure also appeared immediately, flying forward to grab the silver spear with one hand and steadily catching the falling Lu Jinghuai with the other, “Are you okay?”@@novelbin@@

“Be careful, he’s not an ordinary innate warrior. If you manage to hit him, just leave me and run away,” Lu Jinghuai warned, not feeling relieved despite being rescued.

Although Shang Ruifeng’s strength was commendable, having recently advanced to the innate realm like him, he might not be a match for the formidable opponent in front of them. Shang Ruifeng’s situation seemed even more precarious.

Seeing a usually confident person like Lu Jinghuai in such a vulnerable state, and receiving such a warning, Shang Ruifeng frowned solemnly. What kind of person could inflict such harm on Lu Jinghuai?

When the man in the black robe saw Shang Ruifeng appearing, his gloomy mood suddenly brightened, “You’ve come just in time.”

There were only two innate warriors in the entire secret realm, and one of them had just came to him, saving him the trouble of searching.

Shang Ruifeng placed the injured Lu Jinghuai under a nearby tree and raised his silver spear, eyeing the man in black robes warily. “The Hou family’s proposed battle of the aristocratic families truly has a hidden agenda.”

.

“Young master, it’s that person from the Shang family.” Cheng Qi, having finally identified the murderer, noticed that besides the man similar to the one in the black robe from yesterday, there were others present.

“Let’s observe first, then we can discuss,” Li Tianyan replied. He not only saw Shang Ruifeng but also noticed the injured Lu Jinghuai sitting on the ground.

As soon as he finished speaking, the two individuals in front of them had already sprang into action. Shang Ruifeng’s marksmanship had always been renowned, though in Li Tianyan’s eyes, it seemed a bit inexperienced. Nonetheless, considering his age, it was still praiseworthy.

It was a pity that although Shang Ruifeng’s marksmanship was good and the Coiling Dragon Spear was considered a superior weapon, he had only recently advanced to the innate realm, making it difficult for him to wield it proficiently. Moreover, Shang Ruifeng had not used the spear for a long time, so he couldn’t command it like an extension of his arm. As expected, the Coiling Dragon Spear soon flew out of Shang Ruifeng’s hand under the pressure of his opponent’s strength.

Lu Jinghuai’s heart sank when he saw this scene. He was about to advise Shang Ruifeng to flee, but he noticed the flying Coiling Dragon Spear being caught by another person.

The sudden appearance of Li Tianyan momentarily stunned the three individuals present. After recognizing who it was, the man in the black robe spoke to Li Tianyan with a tense face and a loud voice, “This is a matter of the Yuncheng family’s grievances. I advise you not to meddle in affairs that don’t concern yourself.”

The man in the black robe was evidently wary of Li Tianyan’s sudden arrival. Although he had planned to deal with Li Tianyan in this secret realm, the timing wasn’t right yet. If Li Tianyan and Shang Ruifeng joined forces, he would be outnumbered. Even if he couldn’t defeat them, he feared that one of them might escape and cause endless trouble.

“What, you don’t want to have some fun with me? I see you’re itching for a fight. Why don’t you indulge me in a few rounds?” Li Tianyan seemed oblivious to the tense atmosphere, casually playing with the silver spear in his hand.

Hearing Li Tianyan’s words, Lu Jinghuai was unsure whether Li Tianyan was genuinely here to negotiate or if he already knew something. He hesitated about whether to offer a warning.

Cheng Qi saw Li Tianyan appear and followed quietly. When he approached, he noticed another person present. “Are you injured?”

“Are you the shuanger with Li Tianyan? This person is very dangerous; you should tell your husband to leave him alone,” Lu Jinghuai advised the shuanger, who had appeared next to him. He genuinely wanted them to take Shang Ruifeng and leave first. If they stayed, nobody would know about the Hou family’s involvement.

“Don’t worry; the young master is very powerful,” Cheng Qi reassured. Believing in Li Tianyan’s capabilities, he took out a pill from his pocket and handed it to Lu Jinghuai. “This is a Pulse Renewal Pill. It should help you recover quickly after taking it.”

“Thank you,” Lu Jinghuai expressed his gratitude before accepting the pill from Cheng Qi.

The Pulse Renewal Pill was a potent healing medicinal pill. Lu Jinghuai couldn’t dwell on the situation too much at the moment. If he could recover quickly, Li Tianyan and Shang Ruifeng would have a better chance in the fight, and he could still lend some assistance.

After ingesting the medicinal pill, Lu Jinghuai eagerly focused on regulating his breathing to assimilate the medicine’s power. However, Li Tianyan and the man in the black robe had already begun their confrontation. Watching Li Tianyan’s prowess in battle, Lu Jinghuai immediately felt reassured, realizing his earlier worries were unfounded.

The Coiling Dragon Spear became light and agile in Li Tianyan’s hands, devoid of any sense of heaviness or sluggishness. While Shang Ruifeng’s marksmanship was already impressive, Li Tianyan’s martial skills were even more fluid and refined. He displayed no flashy moves but exuded a sense of crisp efficiency.

The other two individuals present couldn’t help but admire Li Tianyan’s martial prowess, momentarily forgetting the situation at hand. Shang Ruifeng, in particular, was captivated, nearly applauding in admiration. He hadn’t expected his Coiling Dragon Spear to exhibit such dexterity.
