Heaven-defying Phoenix

Meng Rou'er was really afraid, before the man at her side even made a move, she was already severely injured. If she did not leave now, she would really not be able to escape.    

    

"Quick, flee."    

    

"Go, quickly go."    

    

Seeing Meng Rou'er trying to escape, the group of male monk did not have the courage to continue fighting and did not dare to be overbearing as they all tried to escape.    

    

"It's too late to leave now!"    

    

Suddenly, a cold voice came out, it was Yu Qinzheng, when everyone was ridiculing Jiu Muli, he already wanted to attack, but Jiu Muli had spoken first, so he held it in.    

    

Those women who dared to bully him and those disgusted gazes all deserved to die!    

    

Qin Zheng's killing intent was no longer hidden and there was no suspense for Jiu Muli's victory. He was also too lazy to continue delaying. With a shake of his sleeve, a bone-chilling cold turned into a white mist, completely shrouding the surrounding dozens of meters.    

    

Silence!    

    

In an instant, the entire hall became extremely quiet.    

    

Those male monk s were instantly frozen into ice sculptures at a speed visible to the naked eye.    

    

Immediately after, Qin Zheng smacked the ice sculpture with one hand. With a whoosh, the ice sculpture broke into pieces and fell to the ground.    

    

"You killed them all?"    

    

Jiu Muli frowned and asked, she really did not expect Qin Zheng to kill her so easily, although she had heavily injured this group of people, she had never thought of killing them, hence she was decisive and decisive.    

    

"What's the use of keeping it."    

    

Qin Zheng said indifferently.    

    

Jiu Muli opened his mouth, but in the end he helplessly said: "We still need to go to First Island, and we need them to lead the way there.    

    

Furthermore, it was a hatred filled death. Even Jiu Muli was horrified by it.    

    

"There's one more left."    

    

After Qin Zheng finished speaking, he no longer spoke and brought Jiu Muli along, in an instant catching up to Meng Rou'er who was running for his life.    

    

"This guy."    

    

Jiu Muli was speechless, she felt that if she did not need Meng Rou'er to lead the way, Meng Rou'er would probably be killed too.    

    

Meng Rou'er's heart was currently filled with fear and hatred, especially when he noticed that the cultivators who had followed him here had long since disappeared without a trace, causing him to feel even more terrified.    

    

"Dammit. They're actually this strong?! How preposterous is this?! I will definitely not let you all get away with this!"    

    

As Meng Rou'er spoke, his speed unconsciously increased, she was afraid that the two of them would catch up to her.    

    

However, what she didn't know was that not far behind her, Qin Zheng was using her as a beacon to point the way with Jiu Muli.    

    

The First Island was the largest island within the Sea of Nine Serenities, and it was also the island with the most resources. It was most suitable for cultivators to cultivate.    

    

A large city with a circumference of several thousand li, located in the center of the island, towering majestically.    

    

The two cultivators guarding the door wore the attire of island masters as they lazily guarded. However, they suddenly saw a familiar figure fleeing from afar in a sorry state.    

    

"Ss, it's the eldest miss."    

    

"Miss Meng, welcome."    

    

In that moment, the guards at the city gate were all startled, looking at Meng Rou'er who had a face full of scars, whose entire body was dispirited.    

    

If not for being familiar with Meng Rou'er, they would have almost not recognized him.    

    

"Guard this place well."    

    

Meng Rou'er did not bother to explain at all, she coldly spoke, then instantly disappeared into the distance as she headed straight for the Island Master's residence. Faintly, everyone heard her sorrowful cry out, "Grandfather, save me!"    

    

When Jiu Muli and Qin Zheng arrived at the First Island, they instantly discovered the martial law at the city gate. But to Qin Zheng, all of this was just an illusion.    

    

"High-level cultivators are just different."    

    

Jiu Muli sighed in his heart, if it were her alone, she would not have had the chance to barge in.    

    

However, it was clear that Qin Zheng had no intention of hiding his whereabouts. After entering the city, he directly walked towards the Island Master's Mansion.    

    

However, the two of them didn't go far before several rays of majestic auras suddenly approached from the distance.    

    

"Junior, you have quite the nerves. You actually dared to injure my granddaughter."    

    

An elderly voice resounded in Jiu Muli's ears like a clap of thunder. Right after the voice fell, a few human figures appeared in front of Jiu Muli.    

    

These were all cultivators with shocking cultivation bases. Even Jiu Muli was unable to see their depths, especially the old man in the lead.    

    

"First Island Owner!"    

    

Jiu Muli squinted, and carefully sized up the old man in front of him, his tone sounding a little serious.    

    

"That's right, two juniors, seems like they are not my Sea of Nine Serenities's cultivators. May I know who my master is?"    

    

First Island Owner coldly said as he looked at Qin Zheng with a somewhat fearful gaze.    

    

He was an old man, and in a single exchange, he could tell that these two were not Sea of Nine Serenities cultivators, but what made his heart tremble even more was the young man. He did not look old, but his cultivation could not be seen through, and just by standing there, without any presence, it was as if he was completely connected to heaven and earth.    

    

"rogue cultivator Jiu Muli, this is my companion, Qin Zheng."    

    

Seeing that the island master was not stupid, Jiu Muli did not plan to go against him, and his tone was serious.    

    

Jiu Muli sighed inwardly. He knew that if he did not have an extraordinary background, the other party would probably not be so courteous to him in the future.    

    

However, she had already discussed this with Qin Zheng before this. She wanted to train herself, so unless she was trapped in an extremely dangerous situation, she hoped that Qin Zheng would not intervene.    

    

Not to mention that she also needed to fight in order to train herself. She didn't have enough combat experience, so in this cruel world, she would be the one to die.    

    

"Hmph, rogue cultivator of the first step, you dare to be so impudent in my First Island, you really have guts."    

    

Sure enough, First Island Owner's face instantly darkened, his face was full of killing intent, and the few cultivators behind him were all eager to give it a try.    

    

"Island Lord, please wait and get angry."    

    

Jiu Muli squinted his eyes, and said smiling: "Island Lord, I think it is not appropriate for you to take action now, and I do not have any ill intentions, it was your granddaughter's hard work to force us, furthermore, we have already shown mercy, so why are you angry, Island Lord?"    

    

In the time it took for her to say something, she had already deduced that the other party was a profound vein who had suffered heavy injuries. Right now, her entire body was like a ball that had a hole punched in it as she gasped for air. Although he had already tried his best to cover it up, how could he hide from Jiu Muli?    

    

After all, this world had never had such a medical skill, let alone the fact that she had studied profound vein before.    

    

"Grandfather, why are you wasting your breath on her? Quickly kill them."    

    

Meng Rou'er, who was following closely behind, had a face full of hatred as he stood behind the First Island Owner and kept urging the others on.    

    

First Island Owner's face instantly changed, his gaze became as sharp as a blade, and an immense pressure immediately started to spread, completely ignoring Meng Rou'er, and said coldly: "Junior, what did you say!"    

    

This was his secret, and he had never revealed it to anyone. After all, if people were to find out, not only would his position in First Island Owner be lost, even his life would be lost.    

    

This kind of secret even his most beloved granddaughter was something that he had never revealed. He never would have thought that Jiu Muli would instantly reveal it to him today, how could this not alert him in his heart?    

    

"No need to doubt. I merely felt that the island master wasn't feeling well, but this isn't the place to speak. I wonder if you are willing to change locations?"    

    

Jiu Muli did not reveal the slightest bit of fear. Although the pressure from the First Island Owner made her feel as if she was carrying a mountain that was thirty thousand meters tall, she still did not cower.    

    

"Forget it."    

    

First Island Owner thought for a bit, then looked at Qin Zheng. In the end, he had no choice but to agree.    

    

As he said that, he swung his sleeve, wrapping Jiu Muli and Qin Zheng up as he rushed towards the Island Master's cave.    

    

Jiu Muli did not resist, nor did Qin Zheng express anything. From the beginning to the end, he was like a spectator, and in the eyes of the Island Master and the others, he was like Jiu Muli's bodyguard.    

    

The First Island Owner's cave was set up in the center of the island, it was an extremely luxurious castle. When they arrived at the main hall, the First Island Owner dispersed the crowd and asked Jiu Muli: "Junior, what did you mean just now?"    

    

"Grandfather, what are you doing?"    

    

Meng Rou'er was completely stunned. She had thought that her grandfather, who loved her, would immediately kill Jiu Muli. She did not expect that in the end, he would actually invite her into the Palace.    

    

In my opinion, the Island Master must have been severely injured, and if it was not a backlash from training, then it must have been caused by someone else. Now, your entire body is like a sieve, although you tried your best to conceal it, your cultivation was still unstable, and now you are unable to fight against anyone.    

    

Jiu Muli similarly did not bother with Meng Rou'er as he spoke frankly.    

    

"Shut up, how could anything happen to my grandpa, you liar."    

    

Meng Rou'er was furious when he heard this, and said to the First Island Owner: "Grandfather, this slut is obviously not kind. There's no need to waste words with them, just kill him."    

    

"You shut up."    

    

First Island Owner swept a glance at Meng Rou'er, and then said to Jiu Muli: "How can Miss determine?"    

    

Even though he did not admit it at this point, anyone who knew the meaning behind his words would be able to understand it.    

    

Jiu Muli laughed: "To be honest, Island Master, I am only studying a bit of medicine, not just that, the Island Master's injuries are very obvious, all the spiritual energy in my body are leaking, I think anyone who is careful would be able to detect it."    

    

Jiu Muli said, his voice changed: "Of course, if I am really blind, I can just follow the Island Master's orders, after all, the First Island has been run by the Island Master for a long time, so no matter how strong I am, it would be difficult for me to get in."    

    

However, it wasn't that he couldn't escape!    

    

The First Island Owner caught onto the hidden meaning in Jiu Muli's words and looked deeply at Qin Zheng who had never spoken, and became silent for a moment.    

    

"Grandfather, you wouldn't really believe her words, right? There are two people with unknown identities and origins. Grandfather, there's no need to waste words with them." Meng Rou'er's face darkened to the extreme, and said fiercely: "Don't forget, when they tried to kill me, they did not care about Grandfather's reputation."    

    

"Do you think you can escape if I kill you?" Jiu Muli sneered.
