1027: Chapter 1027: The Turning Tide 1027: Chapter 1027: The Turning Tide Chuchen sighed and said, âYour cultivation has not come easily.
Why risk it all for a lecherous man?â Shen Huiyaâs face was set with determination, and she ignored Chuchen completely.
But Jiang Manjun couldnât bear to hear it anymore.
She pointed at Chuchen and shouted, âYou old coot, watch your mouth!
My junior brother is a man of integrity.
How dare you slander him as a lecher over and over again!â âGood sister, still standing up for me even at a time like this.
Iâm touched!â Ye Fei, up on the high-rise, couldnât help but mutter to himself.
Zhu Yuyan, nestled in Ye Feiâs arms, couldnât resist lifting her head and giving him a playful glare.
She chuckled, âDonât get too smug.
Your sister has just been blinded by your looks.
If she saw you like this, she might be the first one to want to kill you!â With that, she playfully slapped the hand of Ye Feiâs that was wandering under her clothes, teasing her breast.
âIf she ever does find out, Iâll just have her call me âDadâ!â Ye Fei chuckled, turning his attention back to the scene below.
Chuchen, hearing Jiang Manjunâs words, didnât get angry.
Instead, he tried to reason with them, saying, âDonât you all realize that Ye Fei has not only taken the fiancĂ©e of one of our Wudang disciples but also abducted a young nun from Cihang Jingzhai?
Can a man like this be considered anything other than a lecher?â Both Shen Huiya and Jiang Manjun were aware of the situations involving Miao Chan and Jiang Yitong.
Jiang Manjun couldnât help but retort sarcastically, âYou old Taoist, for someone at the Great Ascension stage, you sure have trouble distinguishing right from wrongâŠâ âSilence, you seductress!
Are you still trying to defend that lecher Ye Fei?â The old Taoist cut her off mid-sentence, a disgusting smirk appearing on his face.
âOh, I get it now.
No wonder we havenât seen Sect Leader Zhu today.
Now that weâre on Ye Feiâs turf, she must have gone to rendezvous with him, right?
Looking at how fiercely you defend Ye Fei, I bet heâs already had his way with both you and your mother.
But I suppose itâs no wonder.
Despite being a lecher, Ye Fei is, admittedly, quite the lookerâone in a million.â His words caused not only the members of the Demon Sect but even those on his side to wrinkle their brows in disapproval.
Was this something a man of the cloth should be saying?
Jiang Manjun, on the other hand, was furious.
She had always been a woman of strong character, intolerant of any filth.
The fact that the old Taoist had not only slandered her but also insulted her mother, whom she deeply respected, was too much.
Even though she knew the despicable old Taoist was trying to provoke her, she couldnât help but roar, âYou shameless wretch, die!â With that, Jiang Manjun disregarded Chuchen standing in front of her and launched an attack directly at the old Taoist, using a lethal move right off the bat.
Normally, the old Taoistâs martial arts skills were on par with Jiang Manjunâs.
Even if she was determined to fight to the death, he should have been able to defend himself, let alone counterattack.
But at this moment, he seemed completely stunned, not even attempting to dodge, let alone block.
All he did was cry out for help, âGreat-uncle, save me!â The situation was dire.
Without time to think, Chuchen swiftly moved to block Jiang Manjunâs attack, his robe imbued with inner strength, sweeping towards her.
Chuchenâs intention was merely to force Jiang Manjun back.
However, driven by extreme anger, Jiang Manjun had exerted all her strength in that move.
After a hard collision with Chuchen, she immediately let out a muffled groan, her body flying backward.
Fortunately, Shen Huiya and Hua Wuying were there to catch her, preventing her from hitting the ground.
Nevertheless, she still spat out a mouthful of blood.
Seeing Jiang Manjun injured and bleeding, the three mothers-in-law couldnât help but feel enraged.
Hua Nongyue was the first to shout, âYou old coot, youâve gone too far!â She lunged at Chuchen.
Shen Huiya and Hua Wuying, after gently placing Jiang Manjun down, also charged forward.
Over the past two decades, the five of them had relied on each other for survival.
The three women had long regarded Zhu Yuyan as their sister, and Jiang Manjun was like a daughter to them.
With Jiang Manjun injured and bleeding, they were beyond caring about the consequences, only thinking of fighting Chuchen to the death.
After knocking Jiang Manjun away, Chuchen was momentarily stunned, and his heart felt a pang of guilt.
However, he was not the kind of person to sit back and do nothing out of remorse.
Seeing the fierce attacks from the three women, he quickly gathered his wits and began to parry their moves.
Jiang Manjun seemed to be severely injured, but in reality, she was not seriously hurt.
After spitting out the blood, her internal organs, which had been jolted, had already recovered about seventy to eighty percent.
After a brief period of regulating her breath, she regained her combat readiness and immediately joined the fray.
A moment later, the four women once again formed the Four Symbols Formation, surrounding Chuchen in the middle.
However, this time, although only one person was surrounded, the strength disparity was completely reversed compared to before.
Despite the four womenâs best efforts, they still had no way of dealing with Chuchen.
If it werenât for Chuchenâs reluctance to harm their lives and his restraint in every move, the four women would have been defeated long ago.
After more than a hundred moves, the five of them were still locked in an intense battle.
The old Taoist couldnât bear to watch any longer and shouted from the side, âGreat-uncle, finish this quickly!
If Ye Fei gets wind of this, he might run away!â Upon hearing this, Chuchen thought it made sense.
He roared, âLadies, forgive me!â With that, he surged his internal energy and forcefully slapped out in four directions.
Although the four women had exerted all their strength, their skill was far inferior to Chuchenâs.
Under his attack, the Four Symbols Formation was immediately shattered.
However, after rejoining together, they still did not retreat.
They stared at Chuchen with wide, defiant eyes.
Chuchen sighed softly and struck out again.
This time, he used almost all his strength.
Even before his palm made contact, the powerful internal energy was already pressing down on the four women, making it hard for them to catch their breath.
âStop!â At that moment, a loud shout suddenly came from above the heads of everyone present.
To others, it might have just sounded like someone shouting at the top of their lungs.
But to Chuchen, it was far from simple.
Just those two words shattered the internal energy he had gathered throughout his body in an instant, and he almost had his heart meridian severed.
The one who shouted was, of course, Ye Fei.
At this point, he had no choice but to intervene.
Moreover, he had noticed that Chuchen had not actually harmed the lives of his mother-in-law and senior sisters, and had deliberately held back.
Otherwise, that roar, comparable to Zhang Feiâs shout at the Dangyang Bridge, would have been enough to kill a Great Ascension stage master directly.
