Seeking the Immortal Way

Du Mingcheng sheathed the long knife in his hands and coldly said to Ning Bo: "I said before, if this kid can take three of my moves, I will spare his life."

Lu An ran over from the side and cupped his hands towards Du Mingcheng: "Senior is someone who keeps his promises, we are truly impressed, and since senior cannot kill him, then let us do it, this way, senior's promises are still valid, and we can also cut off enemies, why not do it?"

Du Mingcheng shook his head and said: "I've changed my mind. Firstly, I have to spare his life, and secondly, no one can hurt him. If anyone dares to make a move, don't blame me for being rude."

Hearing Du Mingcheng's words, Lu An and Ning Bo looked at each other, frowning. They were a little puzzled in their hearts.

Lu An's face darkened, and said to Du Mingcheng who was in front of him: "Senior, we have a deal to make, and our goal is to kill Lin Yan, but now, if senior is not willing to do it, then why can't we just kill him? Since Senior is someone who keeps his promise, I hope that you can keep your promise. "

Du Mingcheng walked to the front, looked at Lin Yan who was lying on the ground, and turned to speak to Ning Bo and the others: "My words, I do not wish to say it a second time. You all can go, this person is not to be touched."

"You're clearly being unreasonable. Back then, when you were collecting spirit stones, you were pretty straightforward. Now you're going back on your word. What kind of logic is that?" Ning Bo said with slight anger.

Hearing his words, Du Mingcheng snorted, the blade in his hand flashed, and instantly a condensed white blade light, quickly flew towards Ning Bo. Although it was just a casual attack, but this Ethereal Opening Realm expert's casual attack was not a joke.

Ning Bo's pupils immediately contracted, he anxiously summoned his defensive barrier. Bang! Ning Bo was immediately sent flying by the blade qi, and after knocking over three trees behind him, he stopped.

Although he had the protection of the barrier s, a deep cut still appeared on Ning Bo's chest, blood and flesh flew everywhere, and Ning Bo also continued to vomit blood. His face was pale white, and he revealed an astonished expression, even the ribs on his chest had been shattered by the blade qi, his internal organs were injured.

"Scram, otherwise, don't blame me for not showing mercy." Du Mingcheng said coldly.

Seeing that, although Lu An was unhappy in his heart, but he had no other choice, and thought that he could borrow Du Mingcheng's hand to get rid of him, but who knew, that Du Mingcheng would actually suddenly wake up, and even go against the norm, and begin to protect Lin Yan, this result was something he did not expect.

After all, Du Mingcheng was an expert of the Ethereal Opening Realm. Even if he suddenly went crazy and wanted to kill all of them, you would not be able to do anything.

Thinking about that, Lu An frowned, and said to Du Mingcheng: "Alright, since senior wants to keep Lin Yan's life, then we will comply, and take our leave."

After he finished speaking, Lu An turned around and called out to the disciples of the Scarlet Moon Sect who were still immersed in shock.

After the six people left, Du Mingcheng helped Lin Yan up, and let him lean against a big tree to the side. He connected Lin Yan's pulse, and although the genuine essence in his body was in disorder, his five organs were injured, but it was not enough to harm his life.

Lin Yan took out a small medicine bottle from his bosom and swallowed the healing Pills inside it, then slowly dissolved the medicinal power of the medicine. A tinge of red gradually appeared on his face and his spirit became a lot better.

Seeing that his complexion seemed to have recovered, Du Mingcheng became a lot more relieved and sat by his side to help guard him, so that no one would disturb him.

Two hours later, the chaotic flow of energy within his body had almost fully recovered. Although his internal injuries could not be healed in such a short period of time, they were still alright. Opening his eyes, he looked at the back of the person in front of him and couldn't help but feel suspicious.

"Senior, earlier, you wanted to kill me. Why did you have to show me mercy?" Lin Yan asked Du Mingcheng, somewhat puzzled.

Du Mingcheng turned around and looked at Lin Yan. He did not answer Lin Yan's question, but asked back, "Then why did you show me mercy?"

Lin Yan smiled and said: "Senior and I do not have any grudges between us, if I sneak attacked and hurt your life, I would at least feel a little sorry for it."

Du Mingcheng laughed and said to Lin Yan: "I never thought that at your age, you would actually follow the principles of the martial arts world. It's rare to see people like you."

After pausing for a moment, Du Mingcheng continued, "I've said before, as long as you can take three moves from my hands and don't die, I'll let you go.

Lin Yan nodded, and continued to ask: "Since that's the case, then why did you stop them from making a move against me? "This way, you can preserve your principles in the martial arts world, and they can take my life. This way, you can have a win-win situation."

Du Mingcheng withdrew the smile on his face, looked at Lin Yan and said: "You're right, I can indeed do that, but I'll go back on my word. Although we haven't known each other for long, I feel that there are some similarities between you and me.

Pausing for a moment, Du Mingcheng glanced at the moon in the sky, then continued to speak with Lin Yan: "Moreover, I do not like to interact with people from those sects. On the surface, they are all righteous and benevolent, but in the shadows, they do things like stealing from a chicken or dog, but you are an exception, I admire you for being able to see an unyielding will and spirit in your body."

Lin Yan smiled and shook his head, then said: "Senior is flattering me, but I still have to thank senior for showing mercy to me, if not, I would really have lost my life here today."

Du Mingcheng sat beside Lin Yan, and the two of them chatted for a long time. Du Mingcheng told Lin Yan many of his stories, and Lin Yan also told him some of the sect's matters.

After this battle, the two of them could be considered as friends without a fight, yet in a single night, they had become good friends that could talk about anything.

The moon set and the sky turned white. The dew on the grass was crystal clear. Everything looked so lively.

Just then, Long Fei's group of three arrived at the east side of the city, following the traces of a battle, they quickly found Lin Yan. Seeing the bloodstains on Lin Yan's body and Du Mingcheng by his side, the three couldn't help but be startled.
