"Fairy Xinrong, please step in and help Young Master Wu quickly.
If that person truly harms Young Master Wu with his sinister methods, what will we do then..."
The guards by her side all urged Lv Xinrong.
But Lv Xinrong still did not make a move, just watching Ban Wu like that.
"Weren’t you always boasting of being a genius in this world?
Didn’t you say that I was merely a burden to you in the matters of this world?
Now, tell me, am I really this burden or not."
Lv Xinrong’s face carried a trace of melancholy as she looked at Ban Wu, waiting for his answer.
Despite the intense tension of the battle, Lv Xinrong couldn’t help but press these questions.
She wanted Ban Wu to concede and bow to her.
However, Ban Wu, lost in his own thoughts, stubbornly remained silent, enduring it all.
"Fairy Xinrong, you know Young Master Wu’s temperament. No matter how much you push him, he won’t speak..."
The guards on the side grew increasingly anxious.
The two of them are truly exasperating, still like this at such a critical moment.
In a flash, Ban Wu seemed to be shaken by Shen Han, stumbling back abruptly, and then spitting out a mouthful of blood.
The previously persistent Lv Xinrong, who refused to make a move, instantly drew her sword and joined the battle.
The sword edge blocked in front of Ban Wu, her gaze fiercely fixed on Shen Han.
"Didn’t I tell you, you are not allowed to harm him!
I’m the only one who can hurt him, what are you!"
Seeing Ban Wu injured, Lv Xinrong immediately lost her composure.
Her words seemed to be filled with hatred towards Shen Han.
Even though she had only met Shen Han briefly, she seemed to resent him more than Ban Wu.
Behind her, Ban Wu wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, looking at Lv Xinrong in front of him: "Thank you..."
With that single thank you, it seemed as if the ice in Lv Xinrong’s heart melted away.
The gloomy expression on her face seemed to instantly relax because of that "thank you."
"You’ve never thanked me before..."
Lv Xinrong spoke softly, having always waited for Ban Wu to give her a way out.
Today, it seems she finally received it.
"Actually, I’ve long regretted it. Today, I also happen to get this opportunity..."
Ban Wu’s words were light, but they struck a chord in Lv Xinrong’s heart.
After years of discord, they finally began to reconcile today.
"He murdered my sister disciple Yu Yan and slaughtered several guards of Tiger Peak Manor.
Today, given this opportunity, we must capture him.
Subject him to the most vicious tortures of the manor, to bring solace to the innocent souls of our manor!"
Ban Wu raised the tip of his spear, pointing at Shen Han’s face.
With Lv Xinrong’s assistance, his confidence soared.
It wasn’t just about defeating Shen Han; he wanted to capture him alive and bring him to Yu Yan’s grave to seek forgiveness.
"So many years have passed, I wonder if our spear and sword still have the harmony of that year."
Lv Xinrong whispered softly, more confident than Ban Wu.
In the next moment, both of them attacked instantly.
Lv Xinrong, seemingly still immersed in the harmony between man and woman, frowned involuntarily when she sensed the ferocity of Shen Han’s techniques.
"Was he using this technique against you just now?"
"Don’t underestimate him, he has some skill."
Ban Wu was a bit more serious, having already fought Shen Han before.
"I can sense that his techniques are utterly ruthless, with no intention of holding back; he wants to kill you.
Are you sure you only want to capture him alive?"
Lv Xinrong asked softly, seemingly wanting to eliminate Shen Han on the spot.
"Master’s intention is to capture him and make him watch over my sister’s grave.
To have him kneel at my sister’s grave daily, to provide her some solace."
Upon hearing this, Lv Xinrong finally nodded.
