Chapter 190: Falling into a dilemma
"Humph! Self-preservation?" The old man sneered, "He is just a warrior in the Xiantian realm, can he kill my Chi Yan? Xue'er, don't be fooled by his sweet words!"
"Master..." The girl wanted to say something, but was interrupted by the old man with a wave of his hand.
"Okay, Xue'er, don't worry about this matter!" The old man said firmly, "Today, I will kill this man to comfort Chi Yan's spirit in heaven!"
After saying that, the old man raised his right hand again, ready to kill Chu Tian.
"Master, if you insist on killing him, then kill your disciple first!" The girl suddenly stood in front of Chu Tian and said in a firm tone.
"Xue'er, you..." The old man was stunned. He didn't expect that his beloved disciple would disobey his orders for an outsider.
"Master, I beg you!" The girl looked at the old man pitifully with tears in her eyes, "Please forgive him!"
The old man felt mixed emotions when he saw the girl's appearance. This disciple was the one he loved most in his life. Now that she asked for mercy, how could he refuse?
However, Chi Yan had been his partner for many years, and now he had died tragically, how could he easily let the murderer go?
For a moment, the old man was in a dilemma.
The old man's words were firm and decisive, leaving no room for maneuver. The girl bit her lip, a trace of struggle flashed in her eyes, and finally she slowly walked in front of Chu Tian and said softly: "Sir, I'm sorry, I..."
Before she could finish her words, Chu Tian suddenly grabbed her wrist. The girl screamed and tried to struggle subconsciously, but Chu Tian held her tightly, unable to move.
"What do you want to do?!" The old man became furious upon seeing this and was about to take action, but Chu Tian gave him a cold look. He suddenly felt like he fell into an ice cave, his whole body stiff and unable to move.
Chu Tian's eyes at this moment were cold and ruthless. Where was the slightest trace of his previous weakness?
"I said, I didn't mean to kill the Red Flame Tiger." Chu Tian's tone was calm, but with an unquestionable majesty, "Besides, I will not let others slaughter me."
After that, he exerted force with his wrist, pulled the girl behind him, looked directly at the old man, and said in a deep voice: "If you want to kill me, just come at me!"
"You..." The old man was frightened by his aura and didn't know how to answer for a moment.
"Master!" The girl struggled to break free from Chu Tian's restraints, but found that she couldn't move at all. She was anxious and angry, and couldn't help but yelled, "Let me go! What are you going to do?!"
"Shut up!" Chu Tian glanced at her coldly, with a hint of impatience in his eyes.
The girl was frightened by his eyes and her heart trembled. She dared not speak anymore. She just looked at him with complicated eyes, which contained both fear and confusion.
Chu Tian ignored her and just looked at the old man with cold eyes, waiting for his answer.
"Little beast..." The old man was about to speak when he was interrupted by Chu Tian.
"Just say that again?" A cold light flashed in Chu Tian's eyes, and a fierce murderous intent instantly locked onto the old man.
The old man suddenly felt a chill running up from the soles of his feet to the top of his head, as if he was being stared at by a ferocious beast. His hair stood on end and he didn't even dare to breathe.
Chu Tian no longer paid attention to him, turned his head to look at the girl, and said in a slightly softer tone: "I don't want to hurt you, you'd better be obedient."
The girl was a little overwhelmed by his sudden gentle tone. She stared at him blankly and forgot to react for a moment.
Seeing this, Chu Tian said no more and simply pulled her away.
The old man stood there, looking at the two men's backs, his eyes full of resentment and anger, but he never dared to step forward to stop them.
……
After leaving the old man and the girl, Chu Tian did not rush on his way, but took the girl to a nearby valley.
"Where are you taking me?" The girl struggled all the way, but could not break free from Chu Tian's restraints, and could only let him pull her away.
Chu Tian didn't answer, but just walked forward on his own.
"You..." The girl was even more angry when he ignored her. She couldn't help but curse, "Why are you like this? I was kind enough to help you, but you turned your kindness into enmity and brought me here. What on earth do you want to do?!"
"Shut up!" Chu Tian suddenly stopped and looked back at her coldly.
The girl was frightened by his look and her heart trembled. She dared not speak anymore and just looked at him with a wronged look.
Chu Tian felt a little reluctant when he saw this, but when he thought of his current situation, he hardened his heart and said coldly: "I caught you, of course I have a use for you."
"What's the use?" the girl couldn't help but ask.
"Of course..." Chu Tian stopped talking here, looked into the distance, and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.
"What's wrong?" The girl followed his gaze but saw nothing.
"The prey is coming." Chu Tian's mouth curled up slightly, revealing a cold smile.
When the girl heard this, she suddenly felt an ominous premonition in her heart.
Chu Tian let go of her hand, walked to a huge rock, and slowly pulled out the sword from behind.
With a flash of cold light, a sharp sword energy broke through the air and instantly killed a wild boar that was foraging in the distance.
Blood splattered as the wild boar's huge body fell to the ground with a deafening noise.
"You..." The girl looked at this scene, her eyes full of shock and fear.
She never imagined that this seemingly weak boy actually possessed such terrifying strength!
"Don't be afraid, this is just the beginning." Chu Tian put away his sword, turned his head to look at the girl, and a wicked smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. "Next, there will be more exciting things."
After saying that, he walked towards the wild boar's body, leaving the girl standing there alone, her face pale and at a loss.
The girl looked at Chu Tian in horror. This boy who had always been gentle and elegant in her eyes was like a Shura from hell at this moment, emitting a chilling murderous aura. The blood of the wild boar dyed the sword in Chu Tian's hand red, and also dyed the evil smile on the corner of his mouth red. That smile was so strange and so scary in the girl's eyes.
"You... why are you doing this?" The girl's voice was trembling, and its original crispness was almost unrecognizable.
"Why?" Chu Tian turned around and threw the sword to the ground casually, making a crisp sound. He approached the girl step by step, and every step seemed to step on the girl's heart. "Why do you think I will really believe your nonsense?"
The girl was forced to retreat again and again by Chu Tian, until her back hit a thick tree trunk, and she had nowhere to retreat. She looked at Chu Tian in panic, her eyes full of helplessness and fear. She didn't understand why she was fine before and suddenly became like this?
