Chapter 1016 Helplessness (6)
"elder brother!"
Wei Lianlei, who had been blocked by a group of people, finally couldn't hold back any longer and broke free from their restraints.
"Please, save my brother!" She was quick-witted, knowing that she, a weak woman, was no match for Qiu Tao.
He scrambled to the Taoist priest at Xinyi Temple and knelt down to kowtow heavily.
"Master! My brother has always given us everything we eat and drink at the temple! Please, please save him!"
Bang!
A bloodstain was left on the ground on his forehead.
"this......"
The dozen or so Taoist priests looked at each other, none of them daring to agree.
After all.
This is a mess that Wei Yue himself created.
If he hadn't insisted on cutting in line, he wouldn't have offended this nasty person.
of course.
Not all Taoists think this way.
That's not how I see it.
There is no way.
Abbot Chen Qingfeng was not present.
The eldest and second senior brothers are no longer here.
None of them were true disciples of the Illusionary Water Palace.
He couldn't say a word to Qiu Tao, a formal disciple of the Burning Heaven Sect.
"Save my brother! Save my brother! Please!! Please!!!" Wei Lianlei kowtowed repeatedly, and soon a small puddle of glaring blood appeared on the ground.
The dozen or so Taoist priests turned slightly away, lowered their heads, closed their eyes, and refused to look at her.
"Please... save my brother..." Wei Lianlei struggled and crawled to the other side of the crowd.
Those onlookers who still dared to stand around at this moment were no longer ordinary people; they were either members of many families or martial arts practitioners.
Their purpose in coming here was certainly not simply to pray for blessings and burn incense.
more.
It's about discussing cooperation or exploring the progress of various important matters.
Hearing the noise and fighting, he ran out to see what was going on.
It would be unrealistic to actually put them to the test against Qiu Tao, that ruthless man.
The two people dressed as master and servant stared blankly at the blood on Wei Lianlei's forehead, their expressions indifferent and without any reaction.
"The world is a dangerous place. Huan'er, this is the danger I always tell you about." The speaker was a woman in white. She had a cold and aloof appearance and a cold voice. She was dressed in white and had a silver soft sword tied at her waist.
"A hero saves a damsel in distress. If you do, people will say you're after her beauty. If you don't, people will think you're morally corrupt, ignoring the pleas of a vulnerable woman. In this situation, what would you do?"
"Auntie, don't treat me like a three-year-old." The young man beside the woman in white chuckled, waving his folding fan. "No matter how beautiful the girls in this world are, can any of them be more beautiful than you? Therefore, any woman who appears before me... is a bad person... just kill her..."
Wei Lianlei abruptly stopped kowtowing. Although she had never practiced martial arts, she could sense the murderous intent in the other person's words.
I initially thought these two were beautiful inside and out because of their good looks, but I never expected...
A large amount of blood slowly flowed down his forehead.
Wei Lianlei's vision was blurred, with countless overlapping images, making it impossible to see anything clearly.
But she still gritted her teeth and staggered off in another direction.
"Enough... Lian Lei... Go... Go..."
At this moment, Qiu Tao stopped his violent actions and watched Wei Lianlei's behavior with great interest.
Wei Yue barely opened his eyes. His cheeks were swollen bigger than steamed buns. Through the blood-red afterimage, he vaguely saw his sister, her face covered in blood, kneeling before strangers and begging for mercy.
Suddenly, my nose stung, and blood mixed with tears streamed down my face.
He shouted with all his might, using the loudest voice he could muster at that moment.
It's just this sound.
To others.
The soft moans were indistinguishable from the soft ones; they were completely inaudible.
Wei Lianlei naturally didn't hear it either.
of course.
Even if she heard it, she wouldn't give up.
I recall every little detail of my childhood.
Everything good, her brother thinks of her—the best food, the best drinks, the best fun things...
She had such a good brother; if he were to die in front of her over something so trivial, she would never be able to rest easy for the rest of her life.
"Please..."
“Please…”
"..."
at last.
Wei Lianlei knelt down in front of Han Yi.
"Please... help me... save my brother..." Her voice was weak, almost nonexistent, filled with a deep despair and deathly stillness.
"..."
Han Yi looked calmly at Wei Lianlei.
He had witnessed far too many tragedies of birth, aging, sickness, and death, from the initial disaster in Pingzhou to the demonic calamity that spread throughout the Central Plains; countless tragedies were overwhelming.
Compared to the Central Plains, compared to the North.
The lives of ordinary people in the evil realm are simply paradise.
The expectation in Wei Lianlei's eyes faded. Although the other person did not speak, she could vaguely see a pair of indifferent eyes through the thin bamboo hat.
Having knelt for so long, she was completely exhausted. Seeing that Han Yi was ignoring her, she lost all hope.
He immediately collapsed to the ground, completely losing his spirit.
"Interesting! Interesting!!" Qiu Tao laughed loudly, grabbed Wei Yue's hair, and turned to leave.
"Isn't the Wei family supposed to be rich? I'd like to see how much money they can come up with to buy his life!!!"
*Sizzle*
Wei Yue was dragged along the ground like a dead dog, leaving a trail of bright red blood behind him.
Some people around couldn't bear to watch, but they didn't dare to interfere.
"Wait a moment."
suddenly.
Han Yi's calm, even somewhat deep voice rang out, not loud, but clearly reaching the ears of everyone present.
Qiu Tao paused, then turned his head sharply, his fierce gaze sweeping towards the source of the sound.
"You want to save him?!"
The others also turned their gazes in that direction.
Several other martial arts figures around who wanted to step forward but lacked the strength to do so breathed a sigh of relief; finally, someone had stepped forward.
They looked at Han Yi with relief and anticipation, hoping that he could truly stop Qiu Tao.
Especially the Taoist priests of the Xinyi Temple.
The Wei family and the Xinyi Guan (a concept related to the mind and intentions of the family) are closely related.
If people found out that they watched Wei Yue get beaten up and taken away...
Based on emotion and reason.
That doesn't make sense.
This place... is ultimately the domain of the mind and intention.
only......
They dared not step forward themselves, but placed their hopes on Han Yi.
Han Yi slowly drew his longsword and gently wiped its surface.
No. I'm not interested in him.
"So, you're interested in her?" Qiu Tao sneered. "This girl is too skinny. If you want her, do whatever you want with her."
"Hmm?" Han Yi paused for a moment. "Are you sure?"
"So we're kindred spirits!" Qiu Tao was taken aback, then burst into laughter. "Whatever."
He was just a lecherous thief...
Sensational!
People around shook their heads, especially the group of Taoists from the Xinyi Temple, whose expectant eyes now turned into slight smiles.
Just as a glimmer of hope had risen in Wei Lianlei's heart, it instantly plunged her into the abyss of despair.
A few slightly strange gazes fell on Han Yi.
The moment he opened his mouth, everyone's image of him was instantly elevated, but his next sentence caused everyone's expectations of him to plummet.
The woman in white gently took the hand of the young man beside her, glanced at Qiu Tao who was laughing loudly, and shook her head slightly.
"There's nothing we can do about it. Qiu Tao himself isn't a threat, but the Burning Heaven Sect behind him is not so easy to provoke. When the Burning Heaven Sect is angry, the earth shakes and mountains tremble..."
The title of being the number one in attack among the seven major sects wasn't earned lightly. Plus, it was that brat from the Wei family who provoked him first. Even I couldn't very well step in."
"Auntie, this is fate." The young man chuckled softly. "There aren't many people in this world... whose lives are better than mine. To have you, Auntie..."
"You...you..." The woman in white laughed heartily, a smile playing on her lips. "That mouth of yours..."
After laughing, Qiu Tao pointed at Han Yi and said with satisfaction, "You're smart enough to know what's good for you. Otherwise, your Uncle Qiu wouldn't mind chopping off another head."
He carried Wei Yue down the mountain, intending to find a place to teach him a lesson.
To avoid the other party's family not verifying the identity when they try to exchange money for someone else.
Money exchanged for person.
He still has that much integrity.
"The Burning Heaven Sect, is it? I'm not interested in him or her, but I'm very interested in you." After walking a few steps, Han Yi's voice came from behind him again. He continued wiping his sword without stopping, and his voice remained calm.
The area in front of the dojo fell silent.
"What?"
Qiu Tao's smile froze, he paused, turned around, and stared at Han Yi in astonishment.
The others were also stunned.
I never expected Han Yi to actually dare to save people. Judging from his sneaky appearance, he doesn't seem like a chivalrous person who would be willing to save people.

(A decision made with no other choice. This book will be temporarily suspended. The reason is simple... I haven't had any income for several months.)
Although it's a part-time job, it still takes up a lot of my time. 3000 words a day, 0 words a month. I spend at least two hours a day just writing. I'm putting in a lot of effort but getting very little in return. To be honest, my income for the past few months has been basically zero. I have elderly parents and young children to support... People need to eat.
I apologize to everyone. I believe that those who have read this far are all long-time readers. Although the ending and outline of this book have been written, I really have no choice but to do so because of the pressures of life.
I'll take a few days off to work out the outline and prepare for my new book. As for this book... I'll try my best to finish it if I have the time and energy in the future.
Life is so frustrating.
