The Ancient Supreme

0"Let me go!" Ying Ning's wrist was grabbed by Zhong Jian, causing him to be enraged.    

    

"You are a demon spirit, you and them are incompatible fire and water. Ying Ning, you have to clear up the situation!" Zhong Jian berated Ying Ning.    

    

Ying Ning raised her stubborn face and stared at Zhong Jian.    

    

"They are my friends, I will never allow you to hurt them in the slightest!" Ying Ning said firmly.    

    

Hearing you say that, Zhong Jian was immediately enraged.    

    

He raised his hand, preparing to punch Ying Ning in the face.    

    

Ying Ning looked at his posture, her face still showing an unyielding expression.    

    

"Fight!" Ying Ning said to Zhong Jian coldly.    

    

"You!" Zhong Jian was immediately flustered and exasperated.    

    

His hand kept trembling in the air as if he was holding back the anger in his heart.    

    

Seeing Ying Ning's stubborn expression, he hesitated for a moment, but in the end, she coldly shook him off.    

    

"You stupid woman!" Zhong Jian scolded Ying Ning helplessly.    

    

Looking at Zhong Jian's expression, Ying Ning could not help but be shocked, she did not expect Zhong Jian to actually bear with her time and time again.    

    

"General, I beg of you to let them go!"    

    

When Ying Ning saw Zhong Jian's disappointed expression, she immediately kneeled in front of Zhong Jian with tears in her eyes, begging him bitterly.    

    

"You! This was too stupid! "Cultivators and Demon Spirits are rivals. If I let them go, wouldn't that cut off the Demon Spirit Race's retreat?!" Zhong Jian roared angrily at Ying Ning.    

    

"General, in the past hundred years, the Cultivation Clan has never fought with a demon spirit. Why would we need to start a war again?" Ying Ning held onto Zhong Jian's clothes tightly, and begged him bitterly.    

    

A look of annoyance suddenly surfaced on Zhong Jian's face.    

    

He was furious in his heart. What he did not expect was that Ying Ning was actually related to the Cultivation Clan!    

    

The more he thought about it, the angrier he got, and he impatiently kicked Ying Ning away.    

    

Ying Ning looked at Zhong Jian's furious expression and instantly blocked the attack in front of him.    

    

"Unless I die today, I will absolutely not let you touch a single hair on their head!" Ying Ning's expression was resolute, as he enunciated word by word with gritted teeth.    

    

After Zhong Jian heard this, he immediately extended his hand out, wanting to knock Ying Ning out.    

    

Seeing him suddenly make a move, Ying Ning's pupils became tight, and she dodged to the side, dodging his attack.    

    

Soon after, Ying Ning immediately stirred the Demonic Qi in her body, and struck out with her palm.    

    

Zhong Jian did not expect Ying Ning to actually make a move, and his eyes revealed a look of surprise.    

    

"Ying Ning, you actually dared to go against your superiors for them!"    

    

However, Ying Ning still maintained her indifferent expression, "You forced me to do this!"    

    

Hearing Ying Ning's words, Zhong Jian could not help but sneer.    

    

"Haha, I'm afraid you've already wanted to rebel!" A trace of killing intent suddenly surfaced in Zhong Jian's eyes.    

    

"Bring it on!" Ying Ning looked at his dark and cold aura, but did not have the slightest fear.    

    

Seeing her like that, Zhong Jian became even more furious in his heart. Raising both palms, he conjured two streams of Demonic Qi, and with a lightning fast speed, he rushed towards Ying Ning.    

    

Ying Ning looked at his agile speed and couldn't help but to open her eyes wide.    

    

By the time he could see his steps, it was too late to dodge.    

    

Zhong Jian swiftly struck out with his palm, striking Ying Ning's shoulder.    

    

Ying Ning's body flew out like a flower.    

    

"Aunt Ying Ning!" Seeing Ying Ning getting hit, Ah Yin could not help but exclaim.    

    

Although Ying Ning was injured by Zhong Jian, she still bore the pain in her body and arrived in front of Lin Yuan and the others.    

    

Ying Ning opened up her arms to protect them, and then raised her stubborn face to glare at Zhong Jian.    

    

"Today, even if I die, I will not let you hurt them even a little!" Ying Ning said to Zhong Jian with a righteous look.    

    

Seeing her like this, Zhong Jian's heart could not help but hurt, and he suddenly thought back to the matters between him and Ying Ning a thousand years ago.    

    

"This silly girl has been reincarnated for a thousand years, but she's still so stubborn!" Zhong Jian said with a disappointed look.    

    

"I can let them go for now!"    

    

Hearing Zhong Jian's words, Ying Ning could not help but reveal a surprised expression.    

    

"I mean it!" Ying Ning asked anxiously.    

    

Behind him, Lin Yuan and the aunty's faces revealed a look of doubt. The grand Demon General, why did he suddenly change his mind for Ying Ning!    

    

Seeing her look of anticipation, Zhong Jian nodded his head coldly.    

    

"I can let them off this time, but give them seven days. If this general captures them after seven days, I will definitely not show mercy!"    

    

Hearing Zhong Jian's words, Ying Ning frowned, but she did not say anything.    

    

After all, she also understood that this was Zhong Jian's greatest concession.    

    

"Thank you, General!" Ying Ning tremblingly kneeled on the ground and kowtowed to Zhong Jian.    

    

Zhong Jian looked at them coldly, then with a flick of his sleeve, he leapt up and flew into the sky.    

    

Seeing Zhong Jian leave, Ying Ning could not help but heave a sigh of relief.    

    

"You guys should leave as soon as possible!" Ying Ning turned around and said to Lin Yuan and the others.    

    

"Aunt Ying Ning, are your injuries alright?" Ah Yin looked at Ying Ning's pale face with worry.    

    

Ying Ning chuckled, and then shook her head.    

    

"Don't worry, Zhong Jian will not hurt me."    

    

Although Ying Ning had only met him twice, but every time she saw Zhong Jian's clear eyes, Ying Ning felt a sense of familiarity towards him, as if she had known him for a thousand years.    

    

"Now that the carriage is in ruins, I'm afraid we won't be able to leave ?" Lin Yuan looked at the broken carriage, his face revealing a look of worry.    

    

"Stay in Mascot for another day, I'll go find a carriage for all of you." Ying Ning sighed and said.    

    

"This ?" A trace of awkwardness appeared on Ah Yin's face.    

    

Seeing them acting like this, Ying Ning couldn't help but think back to when they were in the bamboo forest. The people from the Ling-Xian Gate thought that she was secretly colluding with Lin Yuan.    

    

"Don't worry, just with those sect disciples, even if we're injured, they won't be able to hurt us!" Ying Ning comforted Lin Yuan.    

    

Lin Yuan muttered to himself for a moment, but at the moment, he had no other choice.    

    

Then they returned to the village.    

    

When the villagers saw that Lin Yuan had actually returned with Ying Ning, they could not help but reveal a trace of fear.    

    

"Lin Yuan, you are really going too far!" Wu Lin saw that Lin Yuan and Ying Ning were together, and scolded angrily.    

    

Currently, the disciples of the leading sects were all wearing mourning garments. They wanted to call out to Ye Baixuan.    

    

Bai Yuxuan's corpse was placed on top of a pile of firewood.    

    

"Ying Ning has changed. She won't kill anymore innocent people." Lin Yuan said indifferently to the villagers.    

    

The disciples of the Ling-Xian Gate all looked at Lin Yuan with resentment.    

    

"I, the Ling-Xian Gate disciple, have endured it repeatedly. Lin Yuan, you really do not put us, the Ling-Xian Gate, in your eyes!" Chen Mei walked out from the crowd, his eyes carrying a cold killing intent.    

    

"It is not that I do not respect all the fellow disciples, but it is just that Great General of Modu, Zhong Jian, is currently outside the village. If not for Ying Ning's help just now, my wife and I would have died long ago."    

    

"Enough!" Chen Mei waved the sword in his hand, and said impatiently.    

    

"You killed my big brother, this hatred is irreconcilable! Today, I will kill you! " Chen Mo's face was livid and his body emitted a trace of chilliness.    

    

When the Ling-Xian Gate disciples saw that he was about to rush over, they immediately stopped him.    

    

"Senior brother, you can't! With our strength right now, we are still unable to contend against Lin Yuan, so we need to endure a bit more. We wait for the disciples of the various big sects to arrive, then besiege Lin Yuan together!" The junior brothers behind Chen Mei quietly advised him.    

    

Only then did Chen Mei dispel the anger in his heart and kept the sword in his hand.    

    

"Lin Yuan, right now, my eldest senior brother's bones are not even cold, I do not want to see blood, but in three days, I will take your dog life!" Chen Mei glared at Lin Yuan and said.    

    

Hearing them say that, Lin Yuan did not refute them.    

    

After all, the disciples of the Ling-Xian Gate had personally witnessed him killing Bai Yuxuan.    

    

Lin Yuan did not look at them anymore and directly followed Ah Yin and the others into the house.    

    

The others didn't dare to stop them as they watched them walk past.    

    

The Ling-Xian Gate disciple's face was ashen as he stared at Lin Yuan, his fists clenched tightly.    

    

It looked like he was about to pounce on Lin Yuan and skin him alive.    

    

Although Lin Yuan knew that they had a deep hatred for him, he knew now that there was no point in explaining it.    

    

He had to find enough evidence to prove that there was something amiss!    

    

After entering the house, Ying Ning sighed helplessly.    

    

"Lin Yuan, in vain did you expend all your heart to treat them, and now they are actually enemies with you. Is this your so-called path of justice?"    

    

Lin Yuan did not respond to Ying Ning. Instead, he sat on the bedside.    

    

Then, he immediately took out a pill from the storage bag and consumed it.    

    

"You're injured, quickly consume the pill." Lin Yuan said to Ying Ning.    

    

After this battle, Lin Yuan's opinion of Ying Ning had greatly improved.    

    

Previously, he always thought that Ying Ning was a Demon Spirit and was always against the Mascot, so he didn't have a good impression of her.    

    

But now, Ying Ning was actually willing to sacrifice her life to save him.    

    

The drop of water was a token of her gratitude. Since she had saved them, regardless of her identity, she was still a friend!    

    

"I'll leave soon. I'll only be a burden if I stay here." Looking at the pellet in Lin Yuan's hand, Ying Ning felt a wave of emotions in her heart.    

    

"Aunt Ying Ning, you saved us, why would you drag us down!"    

    

Seeing that Ying Ning was about to leave, Ah Yin immediately stopped her.    

    

"Ying Ning, we are now grasshoppers on the same rope, it is better to think carefully about how to deal with General Zhong Jian."    

    

When Ying Ning heard this, she also looked like she had a heavy load on her mind.    

0

    

As a Demon Spirit, she had actually betrayed the yadu. This matter would definitely be kept in Zhong Jian's heart, and he did not know how to handle it in the future.    

    

"We started three hundred years ago, so what do I have to fear?"    

    

After thinking about it, Ying Ning's face suddenly revealed a calm expression.
