<h4>Chapter 748: Came for Who?</h4>


    A harsh sword light shed across.


    Shangguan Wan’s heart harshly skipped a beat as she watched the Cloud-Sky Copper Sword directly sh the tree root.


    But just as the sword was about to touch it, Qin Yi suddenly pressed Qiang Wanzhou’s wrist. His action was light as if he just patted thetter, but Qiang Wanzhou’s actions suddenly stopped.


    Rage overwhelmed Qiang Wanzhou’s pretty face as he held the sword hilt tightly, strengthened his force again, and tried to retaliate.


    But Qin Yi was too overwhelmingly strong—he silently restrained Qiang Wanzhoupletely. He just ced his hand there, yet thetter couldn’t even move.


    Realizing that he really wasn’t Qin Yi’s match, Qiang Wanzhou looked up angrily. I don’t believe Qin Yi can’t tell what’s going on here! Why is he stopping me? Even if Shangguan Wan dies a million times, it won’t be enough!


    However, Qin Yi’s expression had already calmed down, and a bottomless pit was found in his narrow eyes. “We haven’t made this matter clear yet. Don’t randomly jump to conclusions.”


    Then, he looked at Shangguan Wan gently. “We’ll save you first.”


    Shangguan Wan was ted and kept nodding.


    Then, Qin Yi really waved his sleeves and flung out a rope that wound around Shangguan Wan’s waist. He gently lifted his wrist, and Shangguan Wan was pulled up.


    After leaving the area wrapped in dark-green light, Shangguan Wan instantly felt like she had crawled out of hell. She turned around to look back with lingering fear, and her entire body was drenched in cold sweat. If I didn’t grab the root just now and was slightly careless… I would’ve been the one who dropped down!


    At this time, another wave of ripple could coincidentally be felt from the air.


    A figure then came out from inside.


    Shangguan Wan turned around and was instantly shocked. It’s actually Jiang Yucheng!


    “Yucheng?!” Shangguan Wan gasped as she hurriedly rushed over and jumped into his arms. “Yucheng, you finally came!”


    Jiang Yucheng didn’t notice it and was surprised by the hug as he instinctively held Shangguan Wan’s waist.


    “…I was so scared just now! I almost died! Yucheng, did you specificallye to look for me?” Shangguan Wany in his arms and cried. Jiang Yucheng knew my position. Since he appeared, he must’vee for me.


    After experiencing all the previous incidents, the emotions suppressed in her chest were finally unleashed when she saw Jiang Yucheng, exploding out of her body.


    Horror, fear, panic… In such a short amount of time, she had been through a few life and death scenarios, and she had been on her tippy-toes.


    She could finally rx now.


    The clothes in front of Jiang Yucheng’s chest were swiftly drenched by Shangguan Wan’s tears as thetter held him tightly. Her body was still trembling slightly, clearly petrified.


    Even Jiang Yucheng rarely saw her in such a state, and he softlyforted her as he gently patted her shoulders. “It’s fine. Am I not here? Don’t worry…”


    Qiang Wanzhou saw Jiang Yucheng—who suddenly appeared—and pressed his lips against each other tightly before ncing at Qin Yi. So he had already detected someoneing… And that person is even Jiang Yucheng! It’s not hard to imagine what the consequences would be if Jiang Yucheng came and saw me killing Shangguan Wan. But even if so… What about Chu Liuyue?


    Qiang Wanzhou looked at the deep gully and held the Cloud-Sky Copper Sword in his hands tightly.


    Jiang Yucheng hugged Shangguan Wan andforted her, but his gaze swept around as if he were searching for someone. A tinge of undetectable worry could be seen in his eyes.


    Qin Yi saw it clearly and couldn’t help but secretlyugh as mockery shed across his eyes. He then lightly said, “Eldest Young Master Jiang, you came here really quickly. We just arrived, and you’ve already chased up to us.”


    Jiang Yucheng froze.


    His cultivation level wasn’t as good as Qin Yi, and he was even injured. Logically speaking, it was impossible for him to be so fast. The key was that he wasn’t with the two of them, yet he arrived at this ce. Without a proper reason, it wouldn’t make sense.


    “Not long after you left, I received Wan’er’s cry for help. Hence, I rushed to this ce,” exined Jiang Yucheng briefly.


    He didn’t intend to continue quibbling with the duo. No matter if they believed it or not, they didn’t have the right to question him. He and Shangguan Wan were engaged after all, and they had distinguished statuses. Thus, it was only natural to have trump cards.


    He then said as if in a self-reproaching and heartbroken manner, “Wan’er, why did you send the news sote? We almost went crazy from looking for you!”


    Shangguan Wan knew what she should do at this point, and besides, she also wanted to hide some things. She didn’t speak, but she hugged Jiang Yucheng tighter and sniffed.


    Qin Yi looked at the duo nonchntly as if he had no intentions of asking further.


    “I see.”


    Jiang Yucheng secretly heaved a sigh of relief, scanned the surroundings in detail, and asked, “Wan’er, you’re… the only one here?”


    Shangguan Wany in his arms, and the crowd couldn’t see her expression.


    “…Mm.” Shangguan Wan nodded hesitantly, and she sounded upset.


    Does this mean that… She’s already gotten rid of Chu Liuyue? Jiang Yucheng was stunned, and his heart felt empty and even… a little pained. It was as if someone took needles and pricked his heart one by one, causing a close and continuous pain.


    Actually, he had been very conflicted.


    On the one hand, Chu Liuyue most likely had already guessed what Shangguan Wan was doing. Considering all aspects, they should get rid of her. If not, there would be many problems.


    But on the other hand, he felt very uneasy and worried. He felt upset once he thought of Shangguan Wan killing Chu Liuyue.


    He originally didn’t n toe here, but he was already here when he recovered his senses. It was as if he was possessed for some reason.


    Jiang Yucheng didn’t dare to overthink, but there was suddenly a pandora’s box in his heart. Once he opened it, everything would be destroyed!


    Shangguan Wan naturally didn’t know any of this. She thought that Jiang Yucheng came because he was genuinely worried for her. After all, he knew the reason why she came to Dahuang Swamp.


    Thinking of this, Shangguan Wan secretly felt hatred. I haven’t healed thest bit of my Yuan meridian! If it weren’t for Chu Liuyue—


    Jiang Yucheng looked down. Judging from this messy scene, there must’ve been a great battle here earlier.


    He slightly knitted his brows. This is weird. It should’ve been very easy for Shangguan Wan to kill Chu Liuyue, so why did it cause such a bigmotion? Is it because of that red-tailed phoenix?


    “Since you’re already here, Eldest Young Master Jiang, you can leave with the Third Princess first,” said Qin Yi. “I’ll go down and see what exactly this is.”


    Jiang Yucheng followed his vision and immediately understood what Qin Yi meant. He’s actually thinking of jumping down into that deep gully glowing with a strange dark-green light?


    “You…”


    “What do you want to do?” asked Shangguan Wan rather agitatedly as she suddenly raised her head. Since I’ve killed Chu Liuyue, I definitely won’t allow anyone to save her!


    Jiang Yucheng patted her shoulders and convinced gently and patiently, “Wan’er, Young Master Qin just wants to—”


    Jiang Yucheng’s voice suddenly stopped, and he suddenly pushed Shangguan Wan away as if he saw a ghost.


    The face that could be considered cute and adorable in the past was actually bloody and badly mangled. It was as terrifying as a ferocious ghost!
