"Wait!" Now that things had come to this, the two soldiers only wanted to find out the truth before they died.

"Liu Xin, for the sake of our brotherhood, you should at least tell us why you did this, right?"

The two looked at Liu Xin with complicated yet expectant eyes.

A sinister smile appeared on the latter's face: "Fine, I won't mind telling you." Anyway, he was about to die at his hands.

Dead people don't reveal secrets.

Do you know why I told you to turn your backs before?

The two soldiers shook their heads, one of them saying, "You don't want us to see your formation-breaking technique?"

Liu Xin smiled: "Yes and no. Although I broke a few formations, it wasn't through formation-breaking techniques. Rather..."

"Formation-Breaking Body".

"Formation-Breaking Body?" What is that?

The two soldiers had never heard of it before.

Liu Xin knew it would be pointless to explain to them, "It's an extremely special constitution. Any formation can be broken with just a drop of my essence blood!"

However, the price was too high.

He had consumed too much of his vital essence and blood, and he needed to drink the blood of others to regain his senses.

Moreover, they must be people with extremely high cultivation levels.

"Is there anything else you want to ask?" Liu Xin's brows furrowed with impatience.

The two soldiers had spent so much time with him and were very familiar with his every move. They knew that Liu Xin was annoyed with them, and if they pressed her further, the consequences would likely be even worse.

"I have nothing else to ask."

"Liu Xin, the thing I regret most in my life is being your brother!"

"Me too, we were so naive to believe you! In the end, we all died at your hands!"

They originally thought that there were only two possible outcomes for following Liu Xin: either they would die at the hands of Ding Hao, or Liu Xin would overthrow Ding Hao and bring them all glory and wealth.

What a pity, it was all just their imagination!

Liu Xin is a cunning and ruthless person who disregards past relationships; she is even more terrifying than someone like Ding Hao!

"At least you died knowing the truth, so I haven't treated you unfairly." Liu Xin smiled as she activated the explosive talisman.

As he spoke, he backed away: "Unlike the others, they still don't know why I killed them, hahahahahaha..."

Amidst the maniacal laughter, a thin figure slowly descended from the sky.

With gentle movements and a casual wave, she stopped all the talismans from exploding.

"It's her!" The two soldiers stared wide-eyed at the newcomer, then exchanged a look of disbelief.

Why would the people of Night City come to rescue them?

"Thank you for your help, we are extremely grateful." The two then stood behind Ruan Yu.

Regardless of Ruan Yu's intentions, they are safe for the time being, which is better than being drained dry by Liu Xin.

"When did you follow me here?" Liu Xin asked Ruan Yu with a grave expression. He hadn't noticed at all!

Could it be that this woman's strength has reached a level he cannot even imagine?

Ruan Yu frowned, pretended to think for a while, and then stroked her chin with her fingers and said, "I've been here for a long time. I arrived when you just arrived."

"..." Liu Xin was greatly alarmed.

So, she saw everything he said and did?

Absolutely not! The secret of the Breaking Formation Body must never be revealed!

But the fact that she deliberately confronted him proves that she has absolute confidence in her ability to defeat him.

After some deliberation, Liu Xin decisively made his move. He guessed that the array formation in Black Night City was the work of this woman; at most, she was just an array master.

In terms of practical combat skills, they are definitely not as good as me.

"Prepare to die!" Liu Xin's sword was aimed directly at Ruan Yu's brow.

No sooner said than done, Ruan Yu flicked his finger, sending his divine weapon flying. The sword shattered in two as it flew through the air.

Liu Xin's heart was broken too.

This is his signature artifact!

"Pfft!" With his natal artifact damaged, Liu Xin's cultivation level plummeted, and his foundation was also damaged. He couldn't help but exhale, and now, severely injured, he was no match for Ruan Yu.

Without a second thought, Liu Xin crushed the teleportation jade disc and disappeared right under Ruan Yu's nose.

The teleportation jade disc... He's from the Upper Continent.

While Ruan Yu was stunned, the two soldiers were also in a daze. They knew all too well the value of the teleportation jade disc.

That's why I was shocked.

"Which continent is Liu Xin from?" Ruan Yu turned to ask the two of them.

"Reporting to you, sir, we only just learned that Liu Xin is not from the Beast Taming Continent."

"Thank you so much for saving our lives, sir! It seems there must be some misunderstanding about how you wiped out the entire Qingyong army earlier..." The two were trying to help Ruan Yu resolve this trouble.

"There's no misunderstanding, I was the one who destroyed it."

Ruan Yu's answer left the two of them speechless.

Sir! Didn't you see us frantically exchanging glances? Just go along with what we're saying, okay?

“That group of Qingyong soldiers truly deserved to die,” Ruan Yu revealed his motive for killing them.

"Tell me, should they have been killed?"

Upon hearing this, the two soldiers remained silent.

The Qingyong soldiers had always acted this way, and before this, they hadn't thought there was anything wrong with it.

But if you combine what Ruan Yu said with your own perspective, then the problem becomes much bigger!

So, in other people's eyes, the Qingyong soldiers are really that bad?

"I'm asking you a question!" Ruan Yu's eyes flashed with murderous intent.

If either of their answers displeased her in the slightest, she would not spare their lives.

“Yes, yes!” the two quickly replied.

"It is our fault for failing to properly manage our subordinates. We apologize for the trouble we have caused you, sir!"

"Those Qingyong soldiers were arrogant and trampled on the lives of ordinary people. Your Excellency's killing of them has truly rid the people of a great scourge!"

The two men didn't forget to flatter Ruan Yu while they were talking.

"Go back and tell your superiors that if they have any complaints or disagreements, they are welcome to come to me in Night City."

"Yes, yes." Having received Ruan Yu's permission, the two nodded and bowed as they left.

Ding Hao and his men had been trying to break through the formation for an hour or so, but they hadn't managed to breach a single point. He finally snapped: "Where the hell has Liu Xin gone? Hasn't she had enough rest?"

"Chief!" The two soldiers who had been rescued by Ruan Yu returned, looking disheveled.

"Were you attacked by people from Night City?" Ding Hao squinted at them with disdain, then looked behind them.

"What about the others?" The question was mainly directed at Liu Xin.

Because only Liu Xin has the ability to break the formation.

The two recounted everything that had just happened, and Ding Hao almost cried with joy!

Liu Xin killed several soldiers and fled!

Hahahaha! Liu Xin has made a huge mistake this time; no amount of merit can atone for it! Her position is secure!

"Let's go!" Ding Hao exclaimed, his face beaming with joy.

"Chief, where are we going?"

"Of course, we're going back to Qingyong City!"

"Aren't you going to attack the city anymore?"

"Attack my ass!" Ding Hao slapped the soldier next to him on the head. "What's wrong with Black Night City? Why are we attacking it?"
