Chapter 395: Exchange for a Semi-Saint!_2
The assembled Grandmasters felt somewhat embarrassed upon hearing this. An elderly woman behind Li Nuo looked worried and said, "Junior Brother, you..."
Li Nuo smiled and said, "Senior Sister, don't worry. Senior Dongfang is also a Sixth Realm Yin Yang School member; he can protect me."
Only then did the Grandmasters clasp their hands at Li Nuo and left in succession, flying away.
Although they felt a bit ashamed in their hearts, when it came to their lives, they could not sacrifice themselves just for favor.
Soon, within a thousand feet, only Li Nuo and Dongfang Xuan were left.
Ximen Du looked at Li Nuo and sneered, saying, "Boy, you're overestimating Dongfang Xuan. If I want your life, Dongfang Xuan cannot protect you."
Li Nuo was naturally aware of this fact. Although the Yin Yang School's attack methods were singular, they had an absolute first-move advantage, impossible to defend against or block, causing everyone to fear them.
He looked at the old man opposite, smiled slightly, and said, "I'm very interested in the methods of the Yin Yang School. Why don't you, Senior, show me some of your skills, so I can witness the power of a Semi-Saint from the Yin Yang School..."
Ximen Du replied coldly, "Young man, you don't know the height of the sky or the depth of the earth!"
At this moment, he was secretly relieved.
The departure of these Grandmasters showed they still feared death.
The Yin Yang School doesn't fear Grandmasters but fears fearless Grandmasters.
If there were ten or more of them not afraid of death, his own life would be in peril today.
He looked coldly at the young man in front of him.
Even though dozens of Grandmasters had retreated beyond a thousand feet, this young brat dared to boast in front of him.
In that case, he would first take away ten years of his life to let him know the price of being presumptuous in front of a Yin Yang School Semi-Saint.
He didn't intend to kill him, though.
This person had a faint aura of the Yin Yang School on him, and he didn't know his relationship with Dongfang Xuan. If he killed him, he might provoke Dongfang Xuan and end up with a mutually destructive outcome, which was not the outcome he desired.
With the faint aura emitted by this ignorant young man, taking away ten years of his life would cost him almost nothing.
With a thought, he put his intention into action.
The next moment, Ximen Du's body suddenly felt weak, and he had to steady himself by holding onto the carriage.
Ximen Jian stared at him with wide eyes, a look of horror on his face, trembling as he said, "Grandfather, you..."
In that instant, he saw his grandfather suddenly age considerably.
Ximen Du looked down at his hands, shock written on his face, and exclaimed, "How is this possible!"
Just now, he lost nearly ten years of lifespan!
The cost of taking ten years of another's life was his own ten years!
How is this possible? Only a Semi-Saint can make him pay the same price!
Could it be that he is a Semi-Saint?
His gaze turned towards the young man opposite, seeing no trace of time's passing on his body.
It was as if the ten years he lost had no effect on him!
This completely overturned Ximen Du's understanding, causing his mind to go blank for a moment.
Li Nuo glanced at the Law Code, noting he originally had more than 1,300 years of lifespan. After subtracting ten years, he still had over 1,300 years. Ten years of lifespan could be earned back just by inspecting a county.
Ximen Du had regained his senses, his face incredibly pale.
The most powerful and sole method of the Yin Yang School is robbing others of their lifespan.
Without this method, he was just an ordinary old man, and even a common person could kill him...
A wave of fear surged from the depths of Ximen Du's heart. He pointed at Li Nuo and shouted to the guards, "Kill, kill him!"
Among them, including two Grandmasters, none of the dozens of Ximen Family guards moved; instead, they tacitly took a step back.
Opposite was an elder just like him, a Yin Yang School Semi-Saint, and asking them to kill the young man beside him was akin to seeking death?
Li Nuo stepped forward, and Ximen Du, clinging to the carriage, shouted sternly, "Boy, if you dare to harm me, I will die together with Dongfang Xuan!"
He could not deal with this peculiar kid, but surely he cared about Dongfang Xuan's life?
He could feel that Dongfang Xuan's lifespan was nearing its end.
Although he didn't know what had happened, leading him to lose a lot of lifespan over the years, his remaining lifespan was enough to ensure they could die together.
Li Nuo was momentarily speechless. No wonder powerful individuals of various families were unwilling to provoke the Yin Yang School. They were quick to propose mutual destruction; anyone sane who didn't want to die would keep their distance.
At this moment, Dongfang Xuan smiled and said, "Boy, don't worry about me. I've lived long enough. Being able to take that old thief Ximen with me in death would be worthy of the Dongfang Family ancestors. Just take good care of Qing'er for me in the future..."
As he finished speaking, his originally graying hair quickly turned white.
His body also started to falter, barely standing with Li Nuo's support.
Opposite, Ximen Du's face also rapidly wrinkled, and he could hardly stand even with the carriage's support, pointing a trembling finger at Dongfang Xuan in disbelief and fury, "Madman, you're a madman!"
His earlier threat of mutual destruction was merely that, a threat, intending ultimately to escape.
He didn't expect Dongfang Xuan truly intended to drag him to death together!
But in the next moment, he suddenly turned his head toward the sky behind him.
Li Nuo also looked up, gazing toward the direction of Wei Country.
In an instant, a streak of light brushed across the sky, and in just a moment, two figures landed beside Ximen Du.
One of them was a middle-aged man in black.
The other was an old man in a gray robe.
