Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World

Chapter 854: Chapter 451: Nyua Pavilion

Ji Ziyue’s face darkened, suddenly feeling a sense of unease.

To her, the strength of the Shaking Light Saintess was not below her own.

As a member of the Ji family, showing weakness in front of outsiders would be too embarrassing.

Therefore, even if it was just an act, she had to keep up appearances.

"Shaking Light Saintess, if you have the ability, feel free to try."

Ji Ziyue said, gripping a short blade and stepping forward.

The smile of the Shaking Light Saintess instantly froze, a glint of murderous intent flashing in her eyes.

"Since you’re so unappreciative, I’ll grant you your wish."

With that, the figure of the Shaking Light Saintess vanished from the spot.

Ji Ziyue’s eyes sharpened, immediately concentrating all her divine power into her palms.

However, at that moment, the Shaking Light Saintess suddenly sensed a strong divine power rapidly approaching.

That divine power came from the Ji family, and it was stronger than her own!

"Hmph! Take this!"

The Shaking Light Saintess snorted coldly, suddenly unleashing divine power at Ji Haiyue.

"Whoosh!"

A red light shot toward Ji Haiyue.

Seeing the force coming, Ji Haiyue exerted all his strength to dodge.

But having just taken a hit, his movements were slightly sluggish now.

"Bang!"

Even so, he was struck by the divine power.

"Pfft!"

Ji Haiyue’s body swayed, spitting out a mouthful of blood.

"Brother!"

Seeing this, Ji Ziyue shouted, immediately flying over to check on Ji Haiyue’s injuries.

Taking advantage of the moment, the Shaking Light Saintess grabbed Gu Sheng: "Let’s go!"

Then the two transformed into a streak of light, shooting off into the distance.

Ji Ziyue looked up in the direction of the Shaking Light Saintess’s disappearance, her eyes filled with unwillingness.

But now, Ji Haiyue’s injuries were the more pressing matter.

"Brother Haiyue, are you okay?"

Ji Ziyue asked with some urgency.

Ji Haiyue wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his face pale.

"I’m fine, Ziyue, don’t worry. We must inform the family quickly; the Shaking Light Saintess has taken Gu Sheng away, there must be some plot."

Ji Haiyue said, gasping for breath.

"It’s my fault, all my fault..."

Ji Ziyue said, looking guilty.

"Ziyue, I really don’t understand why you did this."

Ji Haiyue said, with a hint of discontent in his voice.

"I..."

Ji Ziyue stammered, not answering.

"Enough, I won’t ask more, just hope this doesn’t happen again."

Ji Haiyue comforted her.

After all, she was his younger sister; a brother’s love for his sister was only natural.

"Mm, thank you, brother."

Ji Ziyue nodded.

Then she immediately took out a Communication Talisman, preparing to quickly report the situation back to the Ji family.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!"

Suddenly, several streaks of light flashed by.

It was Ji Hui Ancestor arriving with a few other elders from the Ji family.

"Ancestor... Greetings, Ancestor."

Ji Haiyue saluted Ji Hui.

"Ziyue, Haiyue, what happened to you?"

Ji Hui, seeing the blood at the corner of Ji Haiyue’s mouth, frowned slightly and asked with concern.

"We had just caught Gu Sheng; unexpectedly, the Shaking Light Saintess ambushed us and rescued Gu Sheng."

Ji Haiyue explained to Ji Hui.

"What did you say? Ambushed? Shaking Light Saintess?"

Ji Hui was obviously skeptical, then turned his gaze to Ji Ziyue.

"Ziyue, is what your brother Haiyue said true?"

Ji Hui asked coldly.

"This... this..."

Ji Ziyue stammered a bit in her speech.

Seeing this, Ji Haiyue quickly explained: "It’s true, of course, it’s true. If it weren’t for Sister Ziyue arriving in time, I might not have made it out alive, wouldn’t you say, Sister Ziyue?"

Ji Ziyue nodded in agreement with Ji Haiyue’s words: "Yes, Ancestor, Brother Haiyue really almost..."

Ji Hui obviously didn’t believe the two of them.

But right now, capturing Gu Sheng was the top priority, not troubling his own family.

"Which way did they escape?"

Ji Hui asked.

"That way."

Ji Haiyue said, pointing in the direction where Gu Sheng and the Shaking Light Saintess had fled.

"Ziyue, take your brother Haiyue back to heal, we’ll give chase!"

After saying this, Ji Hui led the other Ji family elders in pursuit.

Watching their retreating figures, Ji Ziyue and Ji Haiyue let out a long breath.

"Phew... Brother Haiyue, thank you."

Ji Ziyue sighed.

"Thank me for what?"

Ji Haiyue asked with a faint smile.

"Thank you for covering for me. If Ancestor knew the truth, I’m afraid I would never be able to step out of the Ji family again."

Ji Ziyue said with a pout, looking pitiful.

Ji Haiyue chuckled: "Alright, I’m your brother, after all. Let’s go back first."

"Mm."

Ji Ziyue nodded, and along with Ji Haiyue, formed a stream of light heading to the nearest Ji family stronghold.

Meanwhile, the Shaking Light Saintess was advancing rapidly with Gu Sheng.

She knew that although the operation had succeeded this time, her whereabouts were also exposed.

Therefore, she had to quickly find a place to hide Gu Sheng.

If the Ji family found them, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"Where are you taking me?"

Gu Sheng asked as he flew with the Shaking Light Saintess.

"The Maiden Pavilion."

The Shaking Light Saintess replied.

"Maiden Pavilion? What kind of place is that?"

Having never heard of it, Gu Sheng asked with curiosity.

"It is a place in the Shaking Light Sacred Land, an inn exclusively for women, haha..."

After saying this, the Shaking Light Saintess let out a hearty laugh.

Hearing this, Gu Sheng suddenly understood.

He had heard others mention before that in the Shaking Light Sacred Land, there is an inn only for women. All the magic practiced there was of a yin and gentle nature, and any man who entered would die of exhaustion...

"Damn it!"
