C203 Unforgettable(2)

Things went more smoothly than expected. A few people easily pushed open the crystal coffin, revealing a portal of light in the stone house!

However, the situation quickly turned grim. Just as Woo Zhengyang had predicted in the third scenario, the moment the crystal coffin was touched, the No Life Patriarch was alerted and rushed back without hesitation.

After Blade Man and Hammer Man entered the portal, Woo Zhengyang and Loong Zhiwu were about to leave when the No Life Patriarch appeared.

Loong Zhiwu urged Woo Zhengyang to go first. She held off the No Life Patriarch's attack, resulting in a stalemate where both were injured.

Earlier, in an illusion, Loong Zhiwu had failed to notice that the Woo Zhengyang beside her was fake, and she was already hurt in the abdomen. This attack caused her wound to burst open, bleeding profusely.

There was no way Woo Zhengyang would abandon her. He picked up the injured Loong Zhiwu and tossed her into the portal. As he was about to enter himself, the No Life Patriarch struck him hard on the back.

What happened next, Woo Zhengyang didn’t know. He could only speculate that leaving the No Life Patriarch’s domain was random, and by sheer chance, he ended up on the Liu family’s martial arts competition stage.

Closing his eyes, Woo Zhengyang tried to sense his surroundings again. The sword-shaped energy within him was still there, but with his meridians damaged, he couldn’t harness it. Yet, Woo Zhengyang remained undeterred.

In the past couple of days, Woo Zhengyang had observed that his body, transformed by a mysterious vortex, could heal even broken meridians, though it took some time.

Half an hour later, the wooden door swung open again. A young servant glanced at the untouched meal and smirked, "The young lady is here to see you!"

After the servant left, a woman in a sky-blue dress entered with two maids. Woo Zhengyang knew this must be Liu Yunyun, the one involved in the martial arts marriage competition.

Liu Yunyun was indeed beautiful, but to Woo Zhengyang, her beauty wasn't unparalleled. She couldn't compare to the breathtaking Nalan Yan'er, who could captivate with just a glance. Even Bing'er, Ruoxuan, and Liang Ruoxuan surpassed Liu Yunyun in charm. Even the rather plain Loong Zhiwu had a certain spiritedness that Liu Yunyun lacked.

What disinterested Woo Zhengyang the most was Liu Yunyun's demeanor. Though she tried to appear calm, there was a hint of disdain in her gaze.

"I'm here today to fulfill your wish and let you see me up close!" Liu Yunyun tried to keep her tone even, but there was an unmistakable air of superiority.

Recently, this matter had been the talk of the entire city.

A guy named Woo Zhengyang was a fervent admirer of Liu Yunyun. He recklessly jumped into the ring just to catch a glimpse of her up close. In doing so, he nearly shattered every nerve in his body, barely managing to push Han Shanyuan out of the ring.

Woo Zhengyang had heard the rumors from a servant but didn't take them seriously. He never expected Liu Yunyun to actually show up today, seemingly to fulfill a wish he never dared to hope for. However, her attitude was quite disheartening.

"Miss Liu, please leave. I know why you're here. This engagement was a mistake from the start and shouldn't be taken seriously," Woo Zhengyang declared.

Liu Yunyun's expression turned icy. Although she came under the pretense of fulfilling Woo Zhengyang's wish, her main goal was to make it clear she would never marry him. Yet, things weren't unfolding as she imagined.

Contrary to the rumors, Woo Zhengyang wasn't desperately clinging to her or even looking at her with the rumored fervor. Instead, he was the one suggesting the engagement be called off. If this got out, how could Liu Yunyun, hailed as the most beautiful woman in the city, maintain her dignity?

"Hmph! Don't think that by acting all indifferent, you'll earn my respect. Even if you weren't a broken man now, even if you still had your former skills, I wouldn't give you a second glance!" Liu Yunyun retorted coldly.

"That's better!"

Woo Zhengyang didn't argue. On one hand, even though he hadn't eaten a single grain of rice from the Liu family, he had stayed at their place for a few days, so there was no need to keep quarreling. More importantly, Woo Zhengyang wasn't in the mood to bicker with her.

"You..."

Woo Zhengyang's indifferent demeanor only fueled Liu Yunyun's growing anger.

"I've been a burden to your family these past few days. Now that I can move around, I'll take my leave!" Woo Zhengyang struggled to his feet, placing a thousand-dollar gold note on the couch, and bowed.

Thanks to the incredible recovery power of the Flesh Condensing Technique, Woo Zhengyang, though struggling, could still walk with a limp. There was no need to stay with the Liu family any longer.

Seeing Woo Zhengyang casually leave a thousand-dollar gold note, Liu Yunyun's eyes widened slightly.

For cultivators, gold and silver might not be that precious, but not everyone could throw around money so freely.

"Who would've thought, a guy who looks so shabby actually has some wealth?"

"I get it, you must be trying to get my attention, huh? Well, you've underestimated me..."

Liu Yunyun wanted to continue, but Woo Zhengyang interrupted, "You're overthinking it. It's just that I only had this one note on me!"
