Chapter 49: Absolutely Impossible
"Get out!"
The Vermilion Bird watched as over a dozen sword auras crisscrossed toward her.
She struck to block them, but in an instant, the sword energy slashed apart her Vermilion True Flame. Even though she retreated quickly, one streak of sword aura still nearly severed her wing.
Lu Ye’s cold, unyielding heart at this moment made the Vermilion Bird feel as though she didn’t recognize him at all.
How had Lu Ye become like this?
In his past life, Lu Ye could be described as bright and cheerful, even carrying a bit of humor. Anyone who came into contact with him would be drawn in by his charm.
Aside from being ruthless toward the demon and foreign races, he was utterly fair and just with his fellow humans. Toward the weak, he was even gentle—treating them as equals.
But now, he wanted to kill Yue Hongling. He wanted to kill her.
Seeing Lu Ye about to rise, the Vermilion Bird no longer dared to stay. The killing intent in his heart had already taken root. If she left Yue Hongling here, Yue Hongling would certainly die.

Lu Ye did not pursue. His body, which hadn’t fully risen yet, simply sank back into a cross-legged posture.
Yue Hongling was handled as well.
