“Daoist White Stone is on our side now and he will not dare to do anything to you in the future,” Han Li stood up and said with a smile, glancing at Perfected White Stone with a deliberate look.

The elderly Daoist shuddered and nodded slightly, cold sweat pouring down his back.

When Liu Le’er saw this, her expression finally relaxed.

“Come, let’s leave this place.”

Han Li took Liu Le’er’s slender hand and walked to the stone door of the rockery, raised his palm, and pressed it onto the stone door.

As he was about to push it, he suddenly paused and frowned.

Liu Le’er felt Han Li’s subtle changes and looked up at him with a confused look in her eyes.

“What a coincidence!”

Han Li laughed and did not hesitate anymore. He pushed open the stone door and strode out confidently.

It was dark outside. However, looking out from the island, the entire Yu manor was covered in a sea of flames.

Shouts of anger and cries of despair rang out across the mansion, occasionally interspersed with a loud explosion. Thick smoke rose from every corner of the Yu manor, like a thick black dragon, struggling to take off into the night sky.

Even though Han Li and the others were in the middle of the island and was quite some distance from Yu manor, the air was filled with a thick and unusual bloody scent.

“This… What’s happening?” Liu Le’er looked at the burning Yu manor, her expression full of disbelief.

“White Stone, do you know what’s going on?” Han Li asked.

“I don’t know either. Perhaps they are enemies of the Yu family,” Perfected White Stone said hesitantly and then looked respectfully at Han Li, awaiting his orders.

Han Li glanced at Liu Le’er and found that the girl was also looking at him.

After thinking about it for a moment, he said, “I owe this Seventh Miss a favor and, having regained my memories at this juncture, I can’t just leave like that. Let’s take a look.”

The three of them walked out of the Daoist temple, went down the mountain and along the stone bridge, all the way to the front yard of Yu manor.

The closer they were to the mansion, the clearer the sounds of fighting could be heard. When the three of them came to that circular arch, a tragic scene like it was ripped straight from hell appeared in front of their eyes.

In the courtyard behind the arched door, many badly mutilated corpses lay around, most of them were dressed as guards of the Prime Minister’s mansion and only a few of them were dressed in black.

In a corner of the blazing courtyard, a half arc of white light kept a dozen people dressed in black away.

At this time, a spiral cone of fire that was as thick as an adult’s arm flew out from among those people in black. When it flew tens of feet high above the light, the head of the cone suddenly spiraled down before plummeting like a fire dragon.

There was a loud boom!

The spiral cone of fire smashed into the screen of light, which made the already weakened screen of light suddenly fracture and then shatter completely.

“Kill them.” A low voice sounded.

The people in black immediately brandished their swords and rushed towards the people hidden in the corner.

“Save the people.”

Han Li did not move and just spat out the words.

Perfected White Stone, who was standing by the side, immediately stepped into the courtyard and opened his mouth, spewing out a black beam of light.

The snake-shaped flying sword flashed in the sky and arrived above the heads of those people in black in the blink of an eye.

There was a sharp clanging sound.

The flying sword suddenly shook in mid-air and dozens of snake-like black lights shot out from the sword and rained down upon them.

Inside the courtyard, a series of thuds kept sounding along with miserable cries and howls.

Among the dozens of people in black, except for a short-bearded man who reacted in time and quickly rolled several feet away, all the others died on the spot.

“Who’s there?” the short-bearded man shouted.

Perfected White Stone ignored him and with a wave of his finger, the flying sword that was suspended in mid-air immediately swooped down and rushed towards the short-bearded man’s chest.

The short-bearded man’s expression changed and without time to think, his sleeves shook and a small blue shield flew out of his cuff and circled one round before growing in size and turning into a huge shield.

At the same time, with one hand raised, the flames of the spiral cone of fire rose and quickly rushed towards the black flying sword.

There was a loud bang!

The sky was lit aflame and that spiral cone of fire was blown to pieces.

As for the black flying sword, it flashed and stabbed straight into the chest of the short-bearded man. The blue shield was pierced through like a piece of paper.

“Core Formation level cultivator…” the short-bearded man cried out, bleeding from his mouth and nose.

Perfected White Stone summoned back the flying sword and said indifferently, “You’re merely at the Foundation Establishment level and yet dare to do this in front of me…”

Before he finished speaking, he stopped and stole a look at Han Li who was behind him.

Han Li did not respond but took Liu Le’er to the corner of the courtyard, where two people were huddling.

One of them was a young man. His blue shirt was stained with blood and his hair was messy. Although he had the cultivation base at the Foundation Establishment level, his breathing was weak at the moment and he was obviously exhausted.

Behind him, there was a girl dressed as a maidservant. There was blood all over her body, she shivered and did not dare to lift her head.

“Sister Xiao Wu?” Liu Le’er was shocked when she saw the face of the maidservant, but she still tried to call out her name.

The girl’s body stiffened and she slowly poked her head out from behind the young man. The moment she saw Le’er, she gave out a surprised cry.

Liu Le’er hurried forward and helped her up.

The young man rested for a moment before he held it in and stood up, saying to Perfected White Stone, “Perfected One… Quick, save Seventh Miss.”

Perfected White Stone was stunned when he heard this. He did not reply and looked at Han Li.

“Where’s Seventh Miss?” Han Li asked.

The young man obviously did not recognize Han Li. He was a little stunned, but still replied.

“When Xiao Wu and I came to the island to look for help, Seventh Miss and the others were being protected by the other cultivators in the compound and stayed at the main building. But the enemy is unrelentless and they may not last much longer.”

“Stay here and treat your wounds. Xiao Wu, you are most familiar with the layout of the Yu manor. Lead the way,” Han Li instructed in a light voice.

Xiao Wu also stopped crying under Liu Le’er’s comfort and she looked at Han Li with doubt.

She could barely believe that the youth who used to have a blank expression was suddenly giving her orders.

The young man also had some doubts!

He clearly noticed that Han Li was the leader in this group and that Perfected White Stone, who used to stand supreme in the Yu manor, was now obediently following Han Li’s lead.

“Okay. Follow me.”

Xiao Wu nodded subconsciously and calmed her mind. Turning around, she jogged towards the front yard and Han Li and the rest quickly followed.

Some time had passed since the Yu manor was first attacked. The entire front yard of the mansion was stacked full of corpses, which included both guards and servants. The people in black had apparently decided to kill everyone in the Yu manor.

Liu Le’er was horrified by the terrifying scenes and even though she had experienced the cruelty of the human race in the past. The confronting scene before her once again refreshed her understanding of the human race.

Along the way, other than the corpses that were everywhere, they also met several groups of people in black. But they were all easily killed by Perfected White Stone as soon as they came face to face.

They also occasionally met with some leading cultivators but most of them were only at the Foundation Establishment level and were not the opponents of Perfected White Stone.

The four of them quickly crossed through the Yu Family mansion and finally arrived at the main house.
