"You would actually ignore the Great Protectors as well!"
Yue Ling never thought that Dongfang Yu would be this arrogant. She gritted her teeth and glared at her ferociously.
"All I know is that I will avenge my husband and daughter. As for those Great Protectors, so what if they have power?" Dongfang Yu raised her sword and spoke icily, "If they stand in the way of my killing spree, I don't mind making them my enemies!"
She then brought the longsword down and a wave of energy flew from the sword towards Yue Ling.
Yue Ling stumbled back from shock but was soon forced into a corner, unable to back away any further.
Slash!
Slash, slash, slash!
Countless waves of energy from the longsword flew towards her, shooting towards Yue Ling in a neat and uniform manner. Yue Ling quickly raised her sword to block the attacks. but there were too many strikes and she could not block them all. Instantly, countless cuts appeared all over her body.
"Dongfang Yu, you're only raining tyrannical abuse with the middle-class spiritual weapon in your hand. Where's the skill in that? If you're truly skilled, fight me in hand to hand combat!"
Yue Ling was holding a low-class spiritual weapon in her hand and she was unable to defend against Dongfang Yu's attacks. Hence, Dongfang Yu's weapon must be a class above her own! If she could have that spiritual weapon for herself, she would not need to fear this damned woman, Dongfang Yu!
Dongfang Yu laughed icily as she raised her hand and continued to attack. She threw countless blasts from the sword towards Yue Ling, causing the wall behind her to shake. Pieces of rocks were thrown fiercely onto Yue Ling's body as well.
Ptui!
Yue Ling spat out a mouthful of blood. Her face has become increasingly pale as she crawled out from beneath the rubble. She looked poor and haggard, no longer as radiant as she once was.
"Dongfang Yu!"
She gritted her teeth hatefully. Her eyes were glaring at Dongfang Yu with daggers as if she wanted to hack her into pieces.
Dongfang Yu laughed icily. She then raised her sword once again and a ray of energy, much stronger than before, shot out from the sword. It left a long trace in the sky before swooping down to strike Yue Ling who was in the middle of the rubble.
After the strain from the previous battle, Yue Ling's body no longer has enough energy to retaliate. Her legs were trembling so much that they could give way at any moment. Hence, when faced with an even more powerful blast, forget about fighting back, she did not even have the strength to resist...
She could only watch as the white blast from the sword came closer and closer towards her before it slashed her throat!
Slam!
Her eyes were opened wide and filled with unwillingness as her body was flung heavily into the rubble. She probably never thought that she would end up losing her life as a result of that one wrong decision...
Dongfang Yu sheathed her sword before she walked towards Grand Lord Hong Lian and her daughter. The cold and distant air in her features slowly melted away and her beautiful eyes now carried a gentle light.
"Yun'er, did I scare you?" A gentle light filled Dongfang Yu's eyes before it spilled over and enveloped Gu Ruoyun. It was warm, comfortable, and very soothing. "It's alright now, I won't let anyone hurt you."
As Gu Ruoyun stared at the concern in the woman's face, she could only feel a warm current overflowing in her heart. A smile then appeared on her lucid and elegant features.
"Welcome home, Mother."
Dongfang Yu gently stroked Gu Ruoyun's hair and replied gently, "I know that in our absence, you and Shengxiao must have had to endure a lot of bitterness and receive a lot of contempt from others. Have you ever blamed me for not coming back to find you in all these years?"
Gu Ruoyun shook her head. "You must have had your reasons for staying away! I don't blame you and Big Brother has never blamed you either."
