Chapter 463: Red Girl

It wasn’t that he didn’t want Hui Nian to continue fighting; if he rushed into the Gravity Ball’s range like that, it would simply be a wasted effort, and he would have to be pulled back.

He hung the Gravity-immune badge on Hui Nian, then pushed him forward and said,

“Go, Pi Pi Nian, you’ve been powered up by me.”

Hui Nian, full of ferocity, charged over like an enraged beast, unleashing a flurry of punches and kicks on the man.

The man’s pig-like screams echoed through the room, sharp and piercing, as if they would rupture eardrums.

Liang Yu listened to the screams with a frown, his face full of disdain, finding them exceptionally noisy.

He said nothing about Hui Nian’s actions.

He stood to the side, his eyes cold, and impatiently shouted,

“Hui Nian, you’re hitting him too lightly. Look at the way he’s screaming; he clearly hasn’t learned his lesson. Hit him harder, just don’t kill him.”

Upon hearing this, a flash of realization crossed Hui Nian’s eyes, and his movements became even more brutal.

Each punch carried immense force, landing on the man’s body with dull thuds.

The man’s screams grew more desperate, his body curling into a ball, attempting to evade the storm-like assault.

“Please… stop hitting me…”

The man begged intermittently, his voice filled with fear and despair.

But Liang Yu remained unmoved, watching the scene coldly, as if it were a trivial play.

Hui Nian was panting heavily as he fought. Liang Yu thought it was strange that he wasn’t using any spiritual energy to fight, so it was no wonder he was tired.

Although his movements were brutal, he always remembered Liang Yu’s words and did not deliver any fatal blows.

The man’s body was already covered in wounds, his face bruised and swollen, and he continuously spat out bloody saliva.

Shortly after Hui Nian stopped, the door was kicked open again, and a sword-wielding Red-Clad young lady appeared at the entrance.

The Red-Clad young lady had initially burst in with a fierce demeanor, but upon seeing the man’s miserable state, curled up on the ground from the beating, her usually lively eyes instantly widened, the longsword in her hand unconsciously drooped a few inches, and her steps halted.

The furious anger on her face, as if doused by a basin of cold water, quickly dissipated, replaced by astonishment and disbelief.

The young lady was the man’s sister. After hearing reports from her servants that her brother had forcibly brought a man to the backyard, she rushed over to save him, but never expected to see such a scene.

Unlike before, this time it was her useless older brother lying on the ground.

Compared to him, the Red-Clad young lady couldn’t help but look at Liang Yu and Hui Nian with a renewed appreciation.

At this moment, the young lady entered the room and also closed the door. After just two steps, she noticed something was wrong; she felt as if she was being pressed down by a thousand-pound boulder.

In the end, she could only use both hands to grip her longsword and brace herself against the ground, preventing an intimate encounter with the floor.

Liang Yu looked at the newcomer, who appeared to be around sixteen or seventeen, still carrying the youthful vigor of her age.

He extended his hand and beckoned to the Gravity Ball, which then returned to his hand.

As the Gravity Ball was taken by Liang Yu, the young lady was freed from the gravity and finally let out a sigh of relief. However, she dared not be careless and watched Liang Yu, who held the Gravity Ball, with vigilance.

As for Hui Nian, he was directly ignored as an insignificant figure. The half-dead man lying on the ground was given a quick glance to confirm he was still alive, then she bothered no further with him.

Liang Yu’s lips curved into a slight smile, one that concealed a barely perceptible cunning.

He scrutinized the Red-Clad young lady from head to toe. Her eyebrows were like distant mountains, her eyes like stars, and her vibrant red dress accentuated her snow-white skin, her face full of innocence and charm.

In Liang Yu’s eyes, such a pampered young lady was as naive as a fledgling bird yet to experience the world, making her easy to trick.

He looked at the young lady and asked casually,

“Here to rescue someone?”

The Red-Clad young lady merely nodded slightly, but did not relax her guard against Liang Yu.

Seeing this, Liang Yu chuckled inwardly and continued,

“Don’t be nervous, I bear no ill will. Otherwise, there would only be two more corpses here.”

“I was also captured by him; you should know that.”

The young lady looked up, still silent, but curious about what Liang Yu intended to do.

It was true that they were captured, but given the current situation, these two had not resisted at all when they were captured; one could say it was intentional.

Therefore, she concluded that these two must have a request.

However, Liang Yu’s next words made her a little flustered.

“Capturing me isn’t a big deal, after all, I’m just a small fry.”

“But he also captured a Zen Sect disciple. Oh, it seems he’s even a direct disciple. I just wonder what the Zen Sect will do when they find out?”

Hearing the matter involve the Zen Sect, the young lady had a bad premonition. The other party being a direct disciple made her scalp tingle.

Although her family was wealthy and powerful, facing a behemoth like the Zen Sect was like facing an ant that could be crushed at will.

The most crucial thing was that although Hui Nian didn’t know what Liang Yu wanted to do, he cooperated by taking out his identity token and throwing it towards the Red-Clad young lady.

After the Red-Clad young lady confirmed the information, she felt as if the sky was falling because the information was true.

In that instant, she considered killing the two, but immediately dismissed the thought, remembering what had just happened.

The young lady took a deep breath, looked at Liang Yu, and prepared herself for his exorbitant demands.

“Speak, how do you want to resolve this?”

Liang Yu saw that the other party was so cooperative, and his smile deepened, but in the Red-Clad young lady’s eyes, it was like a demon’s smile.

Her half-dead brother, lying on the ground, had smiled like that when looking at the remaining people.

Two lines of clear tears flowed from the Red-Clad young lady’s eyes, and she closed them, beginning to undress.

Liang Yu looked at her actions, a bit bewildered. Were people here really so open-minded?

As soon as the other party took off her red outer garment, Hui Nian covered the young lady with his own coat, while also reassuring her that he wouldn’t do such a thing.

After Hui Nian had calmed her down, Liang Yu finally spoke.

“Seeing that your family seems to have considerable prestige and power, help us with a favor, and this matter will be over.”

“How about it, isn’t that a good deal?”

The Red-Clad young lady’s first reaction was disbelief. Is it really that simple?

“Alright, it’s a deal.”

“Tell me, what is it?”

Seeing that the other party agreed without even asking, Liang Yu couldn’t help but shake his head. Still too young, indeed.

He didn’t try to make things difficult for her. He simply asked the young lady to investigate if any mysterious individuals or Black-robed Men had secretly infiltrated the city recently, or if they were connected to other forces within the city.

Liang Yu did not tell the other party the specific details, as it was better for fewer people to know about this matter to prevent any leaks.

Moreover, Liang Yu didn’t believe this matter had no connection to the city’s forces. In their eyes, there were no eternal enemies, only common interests.

For profit, there was nothing they wouldn’t do; in fact, the Black-robed Men’s ability to enter the city might even be thanks to their help.
