Chapter 2407 Goodbye Hua Ruyu

Seeing Duan Rui's killing intent, the surrounding crowd shook their heads, believing the Young man was surely doomed.

Just then, a soft yet charming voice rang out.

“Duan Rui, if you dare to make a move, I’ll cripple you today!”

Everyone was startled again, not expecting anyone to dare speak to Duan Rui like that.

In everyone’s eyes, this Core Disciple of Jijian Sect would surely be enraged, but the reality was different from their conjectures.

Duan Rui’s expression changed, and he quickly reached out to retract his long sword.

The sword light dispersed, and a person dressed in white walked in from outside the crowd.

This person had fair skin, a handsome face, and exuded a seductive and charming aura, making it difficult for people to distinguish whether they were male or female.

Ye Bufan frowned slightly; the person who arrived was none other than Hua Ruyu, the Great Disciple of Huajian Sect, and he hadn't expected to meet him here again.

Hua Ruyu seemed completely unaware of his mood, his pretty face smiling extremely charmingly as he walked over, fanning himself with a paper fan.

“Little brother, I didn’t expect us to be so fated; we meet again so soon!”

Ye Bufan disliked this person greatly, but one doesn't hit a smiling face; no matter what, the other party was helping him, so he could only nod.

“Little brother, are you also here to see Han Jian Xian Zi?”

Hua Ruyu said with a smile, “I heard that Cold Sword Immortal Sect has produced a Han Jian Xian Zi, who is not only highly cultivated but also exceptionally beautiful, so I specifically came here to visit.

I didn’t expect Little brother to also be here; we truly are fellow travelers.”

Ye Bufan did not speak, thinking to himself, it seems Qin Biyao was right; this guy truly is attracted to both men and women.

However, neither he nor Leng Qingqiu were people this person could touch.

Hua Ruyu happily said, “Little brother, let’s go; we’ll enter together.”

After speaking, he actually came over to grab Ye Bufan’s hand.

“Brother Hua, please go first.”

Ye Bufan subtly dodged his grab, then walked inside.

Hua Ruyu didn’t mind at all, his smile becoming extremely radiant as he followed behind.

From beginning to end, neither of them looked at Duan Rui, and Duan Rui stood by, not daring to react in any way.

Huajian Sect and Jijian Sect both belonged to Tianwu State, and the two Sects were quite familiar with each other; he naturally knew how terrifying Hua Ruyu was.

Although this guy smiled more charmingly than a woman, once he started fighting, he was terrifyingly ruthless, and generally, no one in Tianwu State dared to provoke him.

Moreover, their statuses within their Sects were different; although he was a Core Disciple, his position was not the same, and he could only guard the gate here for Senior Brother Nangong Du.

Hua Ruyu, however, was the foremost existence in Huajian Sect, with unfathomable cultivation, someone he simply dared not provoke.

Not to mention him, even Nangong Du would avoid him by three points upon meeting him.

It was precisely because of this that he didn’t dare utter a single peep, directly letting the few people pass.

Seeing this scene, everyone present had their curiosity piqued.

They wondered who that neither male nor female person was, and even more, what was the background of that Young man, to make the Disciple of Wuji Sect so fearful?

“What are you looking at? Those of you who have nothing to do, get out of here!”

Seeing Hua Ruyu leave, Duan Rui roared in anger, venting his frustration on the people before him.

Just then, another figure rushed in from outside the crowd.

“You stop right there!”

The enraged Duan Rui originally intended to stop this person, but before he could even draw the precious sword from behind him, he felt a gentle breeze sweep past, and the figure had already rushed past him.

His speed was astonishing, almost like a ghost.

“Overestimating yourself, you’re still far from being able to stop me, Feng Wuhen!”

By the time the crowd clearly heard these words, the figure had completely disappeared, vanishing into the courtyard before them.

“Who is that person? How is he so fast? I couldn’t even see what he looked like…”

“Didn’t you hear what he said? That’s Feng Wuhen of Shenfeng Valley…”

“I’ve heard of Shenfeng Valley; it’s one of the Nine Star Sects in Tianmang Prefecture, and Feng Wuhen is their most outstanding Disciple…”

“Oh my heavens, another Nine Star Sect! It seems there’s a show to watch today, but it’s a pity we can’t go in…”

Seeing that the backgrounds of those coming to pay respects to Han Jian Xian Zi were getting stronger and stronger, many people present had already given up hope.

However, they did not leave directly but continued to stay, wanting to see the final outcome.

Cold Sword Immortal Sect was a native Sect of Tiansheng State, and it was a top-tier Nine Star Sect; the courtyard built here was extremely luxurious.

As Ye Bufan and Hua Ruyu had just arrived at the entrance, Feng Wuhen, swift as wind, caught up from behind.

“Oh, I didn’t expect you to come too.”

Hua Ruyu was clearly an old acquaintance of Feng Wuhen; upon seeing him, he chuckled, “Little Brother Feng, are you interested in having a drink with me tonight?”

“I only like women.”

Feng Wuhen’s expression was cold; after speaking, he proudly turned his head away.

“What a boring person!”

Hua Ruyu shook the folding fan in his hand, shook his head, and then stepped towards the main gate.

“Gentlemen, we wish to pay our respects to Han Jian Xian Zi!”

There were several guards standing at the entrance, but they were not surprised by the arrival of Ye Bufan and the others, nor did they stop them.

“Please follow me first!”

After a few simple questions, the guard captain led everyone inside; it seemed that the arrival of outstanding Disciples from other Sects was already commonplace here.

“Gentlemen, please wait here; in a while, a special Disciple from our Cold Sword Immortal Sect will come to receive you.”

The guard captain led the group into a spacious hall, gave his instructions, and then turned and left.

Ye Bufan surveyed his surroundings; there was already a person sitting in a Grand Master’s chair in the hall.

This person was in his twenties, dressed in a purple robe, with a distinguished demeanor and a somewhat handsome appearance.

His aura was powerful, clearly indicating a high level of cultivation, and his face was filled with arrogance.

Although he had not met this person, he could guess that it was likely the Senior Brother Nangong mentioned by Duan Rui outside.

Ye Bufan guessed correctly; this person was indeed Nangong Du, the Senior Brother of Jijian Sect.

Nangong Du was originally sitting at a tea table drinking tea; upon hearing someone enter behind him, he turned his head, a surprised expression on his face.

In his mind, with the Junior Brothers he brought blocking the entrance, no one else should have been able to enter.

When he saw that it was Hua Ruyu and Feng Wuhen who entered, he finally showed a surprised expression.

In terms of Sect status, Huajian Sect and Shenfeng Valley, where the two belonged, were in no way inferior to Jijian Sect.

In terms of cultivation, they were both the most outstanding Disciples in their Sects, essentially masters of the same level.

Since these two had arrived, it was only reasonable that Duan Rui couldn’t stop them.

Then his gaze fell upon Ye Bufan, and upon discovering he was merely a Void Refining Realm Cultivator, he immediately shifted his gaze away.

In his opinion, this was likely just Hua Ruyu’s latest male companion, or perhaps an attendant brought along, someone not on the same level as himself.

At this moment, Hua Ruyu looked at him and smiled charmingly: “I say, Little Brother Nangong, it’s fine for you to come by yourself, but you even had people block the door; are you trying to monopolize everything?

That’s too unkind; doing that makes people very sad!”
