The bright moon lowered its head and met Nie Feng's scarlet eyes, which were filled with demonic energy and devoid of any humanity.
Mingyue was shocked and tried to break free from Nie Feng's grasp.
However, Nie Feng, who had already fallen into demonic possession, was completely irrational. He not only grabbed Mingyue's hand, but even tried to strangle her.
In the nick of time, the peerless sword placed to the side emitted light, and a dark green barrier enveloped the bright moon, then sent Nie Feng flying.
This was a defensive formation that Chu Yang had set up beforehand, originally intended to deal with Xiong Ba, but unexpectedly it was used on Nie Feng.
Although she was temporarily safe, Mingyue was terrified; she never dreamed that Nie Feng would attack her.
"Wind, what's wrong with you?"
"Look carefully, I am Mingyue!"
"Don't scare me, okay?!"
No matter how Mingyue called out to him, Nie Feng remained expressionless, his eyes fixed on her as he drew closer.
Even with the barrier protecting her, despair still lingered on Mingyue's face.
Nie Feng has gone mad; what's the point of her living?
Just as Nie Feng reached out and pressed his hand on the barrier, the Peerless Sword was once again enveloped in a faint golden light.
That's another technique.
"Sigh, the madness has finally struck again. I thought that if Mingyue hadn't gotten into trouble, you would never have fallen into this state."
Chu Yang's voice rang out behind Nie Feng.
Nie Feng suddenly turned around, only to be met with a bald spine that slapped hard across his handsome face.
Nie Feng was spun around by the blow, and the demonic energy in his eyes weakened slightly.
Mingyue looked at Chu Yang with surprise and delight. Before she could explain what had happened, she saw Chu Yang whip her with his spine.
Nie Feng activated his Wind God Leg technique, instantly transforming his figure into a ghostly blur, seemingly about to dodge the attack.
Unexpectedly, Chu Yang's speed also increased dramatically, transforming into a golden flash that appeared behind him and grabbed his neck.
Then he picked up the spine in his hand and started whipping it.
Nie Feng screamed in agony as he was beaten, his previous aloof demeanor vanishing instantly.
In fact, Chu Yang could have simply handed the dragon vein over to Nie Feng. As long as the dragon vein was by his side, it could suppress the demonic energy within him.
But Chu Yang was really unhappy if he didn't give this kid a good beating.
Seeing that Nie Feng was recovering in Mingyue, Chu Yang felt very sorry for him but did not rashly stop him.
"Stop, stop, stop! Ah Yang, stop it! It hurts so much!"
Nie Feng, whose head had been beaten into a pig's head, kept begging for mercy. He had clearly regained his senses. If he didn't speak up, he might really be beaten to death by Chu Yang.
"Are you sure you're awake?"
"Sober, extremely sober, I've never been this sober in my entire life."
Nie Feng was almost in tears.
Chu Yang reluctantly put him down.
"Feng, are you okay?"
Mingyue stepped forward, crying, and rushed into his arms like a swallow returning to its nest.
"It's alright now, don't worry."
Nie Feng looked at Mingyue with heartache and said with lingering fear.
If Chu Yang hadn't appeared in time, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
Mingyue turned her head and looked at Chu Yang, asking, "A-Yang, do you know what just happened?"
Chu Yang explained, "The Nie family's ancestor once fought a great battle with a fire qilin and accidentally got his hands on the qilin's blood, which was then passed down to him. Although the qilin is an auspicious beast, its blood can drive people mad and gradually lead them down the path of demons."
Upon hearing this, both Mingyue and Nie Feng turned deathly pale.
Nie Feng could fall into the demonic path at any time, which also means that Mingyue could be in danger at any time.
"Mingyue, it seems that I will no longer be able to stay by your side in the future."
"No! Even if it means death, I want to be with you, Feng."
The two gazed at each other with deep affection.
Chu Yang got goosebumps and couldn't help but interrupt them, "Although the Qilin blood is powerful, it's not entirely hopeless."
Chu Yang took a deep breath, leaving both of them feeling uneasy.
Mingyue and Nie Feng looked at him with resentment.
I hope you can tell me something important sooner next time!
“I can extract the Qilin blood, but doing so will deprive Nie Feng of the opportunity to become stronger. If he can suppress and control the mad blood, his strength will rise to a terrifying level.”
Chu Yang decided to give Nie Feng a choice, as this was originally his opportunity, and others should not make the decision for him so easily.
"Then I'll trouble A-Yang to help me extract the Qilin blood."
Nie Feng's attitude was very firm. When he realized that he might harm Mingyue, he was determined to abandon this power.
"The power of mad blood will allow you to easily surpass Xiong Ba."
Chu Yang reminded him again.
“I understand, but I don’t want it. I almost killed Mingyue just now, and I hate this power.”
Nie Feng answered confidently.
Chu Yang nodded. Being sentimental was Nie Feng's strength, but also his weakness; his choices were never rational.
Having devoured all of the Fire Qilin's blood, Chu Yang could sense the presence of the Mad Blood within Nie Feng's body and could activate it with a single thought.
While drawing upon the Qilin blood, Nie Feng appeared to be in great pain.
It felt like Chu Yang was forcibly peeling a very important organ from his body without anesthesia.
Nie Feng's hair turned from black to white, and his skin became withered, as if he had become an old man in his eighties.
This is a state in which a large amount of vitality is lost in a short period of time.
Chu Yang then replenished Nie Feng's body with pure life force, and his skin immediately returned to normal, except that his full head of white hair remained unchanged.
Mingyue gritted her teeth and anxiously watched Nie Feng.
After a while.
Nie Feng's Qilin blood was completely cleared from his body, leaving him weak and exhausted, as if he had just recovered from a serious illness.
After managing to thank Chu Yang, Nie Feng collapsed to the ground. Upon seeing this, Mingyue quickly stepped forward to support him.
"The madness has been eliminated. Tell me what has happened recently."
Chu Yang stayed in Lingyun Cave for a long time, unaware of all the events that had transpired outside.
Nie Feng recounted the process of Bu Jingyun's falling out with the World Society with a somber expression, blaming himself for not listening to Chu Yang, which led to Kong Ci's death during their fight.
To this, Chu Yang could only sigh, "It's all about timing and fate."
"I never imagined that Master... Xiong Ba was so ruthless. If Senior Brother Yun returns, I will definitely kill that old thief with him!"
Nie Feng clenched his fists in anger.
"If Bu Jingyun returns, he'll probably kill you too. He hates Xiong Ba, so how could he not hate you?"
"I told you long ago, don't try to guess a girl's feelings of affection based on your own assumptions."
Chu Yang said indifferently.
Nie Feng gave a bitter smile, lost in self-reproach.
"Feng, let's go and find a secluded place to live in seclusion."
Mingyue earnestly advised Nie Feng to leave, as she genuinely didn't want to get involved in any trouble.
"With the fall of Wushuang City, the Tianxia Society will undoubtedly become the number one gang, with influence spread throughout the world. If Xiong Ba wants to find us, there will be nowhere for him to hide..."
"Even a god like a clay bodhisattva can't escape it."
Nie Feng's meaning was clear: unless he cooperated with Bu Jingyun to kill Xiong Ba, he and Mingyue would not be able to escape the pursuit of the World Society.
Mingyue wanted to say more, but Chu Yang suddenly reached out to stop her and said, "On this point, Nie Feng and I agree: as long as Xiong Ba lives, you won't have a peaceful life."
"Leave Xiong Ba to me. Once this matter is settled, we'll be even over for saving your life."
Chu Yang's words sounded like he was trying to distance himself from Mingyue, which made Mingyue feel very uncomfortable, and she nodded silently.
Nie Feng sighed, feeling a little regretful. In his opinion, Chu Yang was a very loyal friend. If he hadn't ignored his advice, things might not have developed to this point.
"Then when do you plan to take action?"
"In a few days, when the Sword Saint arrives, we'll make our move together."
"You want to fight both Xiong Ba and the Sword Saint at the same time? Ah Yang, I know you are highly skilled in martial arts, but doing this is still a bit presumptuous."
"The Sword Saint's life is coming to an end. He can only barely unleash his last sword strike. I want to see his final sword strike."
