Chapter 265: Unaware of Life and Death
The streets of the prefectural city were still bustling with traffic, as ever.
The lives of the residents hadn't changed at all because of the ordeal at the Governor Mansion.
At most, after a good meal, they had a bit more juicy gossip to chat about.
Occasionally, they would let out a sigh.
Xu Nian, at this moment, was walking alone on the main avenue of the prefectural city.
However, he had changed his appearance.
Dressed in a white robe with a fair complexion,
At first glance, he looked like a weak scholar who couldn't even truss a chicken.
The entire Battle Mansion was currently searching for him.
He was here mainly to take away Zhao Yanyun's body.
If he tried to rescue her with his true appearance, it would undoubtedly be as difficult as reaching the sky.
As for Bai Feng, he had been stationed at the city gate, waiting to assist.
Xu Nian didn't head directly to the Governor Mansion.
Because he didn't know if there were any Saints in the Governor Mansion at the moment.
If there were Saints present, with their Spiritual Sense,
he would be detected immediately upon entering the mansion.
Then, not only would he not be able to save anyone, but he might also lose his own life.
Xu Nian had already thought it through.
If there really was a Saint at the Governor Mansion,
Then he would have no choice but to ask Liu Mubai to make a move, forcefully break in, and take Liu Yanyun's body.
Soon, Xu Nian arrived at the residential area where the members of the Battle Mansion lived.
Xu Nian used his Spiritual Sense Power to investigate.
He found that Dugu Jingcheng and Lin Xifeng were no longer at their residences.
Presumably, they had already left the prefectural city.
"Huh?"
However, when Xu Nian's Spiritual Sense reached his own residence, his face suddenly changed.
Then, a murderous intent surged in his eyes.
With a tip of his toes, he turned into a gust of wind,
Rushing towards his own residence.
At this moment, Xu Nian's residence was in complete disarray,
Clearly having just experienced a battle.
Yan Wu was kneeling on the ground, clutching his chest.
His face pale, with blood dripping from the corner of his mouth.
If someone were to observe with Spiritual Sense,
They would definitely find that the meridians inside his body were severely damaged.
He couldn't circulate Spiritual Energy or engage in battle any longer.
But his eyes were fiercely fixed on three young men in front of him, filled with endless rage.
"Release my daughter," Yan Wu roared angrily and resentfully.
"Release her? Do you think that's possible? Your daughter is so charming, how could I bear to just let her go, Yan Wu? I'll give you one last chance—tell me where Xu Nian is, or else I'll let you watch how I play with your daughter," the leading young man said with a mocking smile.
He even reached out and gently stroked Yan Ruyu's fair cheek.
Yan Ruyu struggled desperately, but it was futile.
She was firmly grasped by the arms by the other two young men, unable to move at all.
Hearing the words of the leading youth, the other two young men also showed mocking smiles.
Their eyes also carried a hint of lewdness as they looked at Yan Ruyu.
"Zhang Feng, you're despicable, I'll fight you!"
Yan Wu bellowed, madly charging at the leading youth.
"Hmph, you overestimate yourself, a mere One-star Battle General, and you want to fight me to the death?"
Zhang Feng sneered and threw a punch directly.
He was of Five-star General strength.
How could a mere One-star Battle General shake him?
"Boom!"
Before Yan Wu could get close, he was sent flying by Zhang Feng's punch.
He slammed against the stone pillar, blood spewing from his mouth.
"Father…"
Yan Ruyu urgently cried out, desperately struggling to break free from her restraints.
But with her strength, it was all in vain. Tears had already slid down her face, heartbroken.
Zhang Feng did not stop there; he walked up to Yan Wu.
He stepped on Yan Wu's chest, causing Yan Wu to cough up blood again.
"Stop... please stop, I'll do anything you want, just please stop hitting him." Yan Ruyu cried out, her voice filled with despair.
"Is that so? Then take off your clothes," Zhang Feng said with a light laugh.
Yan Ruyu's body froze, her eyes blank.
By now, the two young men behind her had already loosened their grip on her arms, looking at her with lecherous smiles.
"Fine, if I take off my clothes, will you let my father go?" Yan Ruyu said coldly, her hands trembling.
Stripping in front of all these people would leave her with no reputation.
"If you take them off and I'm satisfied, maybe I'll be in a good enough mood to let your father go," Zhang Feng said mockingly.
He enjoyed this feeling of toying with others.
Especially women.
When he saw women forced to do things against their conscience before him, he was immensely excited.
Yan Ruyu bit her red lips, which were like fresh blood—it was unclear whether it was blood or just their natural color.
"No... don't do it, Yu'er, no matter what, father would rather die than let them dishonor you... ah…" Yan Wu screamed.
But before he could finish, Zhang Feng stepped on his chest again, eliciting a painful cry.
Seeing this, Yan Ruyu hesitated no longer.
She began to reach for the belt of her dress.
Zhang Feng, seeing this, had a playful smirk on his face.
Another woman, submitting to his authority.
The feeling of conquest was indescribably satisfying.
The two lackeys' eyes also gleamed keenly, intently watching Yan Ruyu's delicate body.
Awaiting the moment her clothes would fall.
By now, Yan Ruyu had completely despaired.
Her heart was bleeding.
She knew what would happen once she took off her clothes.
But she had no choice.

For her father's sake, she could only do this.
In Yan Ruyu's mind, the image of a young boy unexpectedly surfaced, her lips curling into a tragic smile.
Perhaps when he returned and found her no longer alive.
He would kill in his anger for her!
That alone would be enough for her.
Yan Ruyu's belt slowly came undone, her dress began to slide down, revealing her smooth, snow-white shoulders.
Seeing this, the two lackeys' eyes gleamed with unspeakable greed.
Zhang Feng's smile grew even thicker, his heart feeling immensely gratified.
Yan Wu's face was filled with grief and anger, his heart bleeding.
"If you dare look at her again, I will make you regret ever coming to this world."
Just then, a loud shout suddenly rang through the courtyard.
Following that, a white figure had unexpectedly appeared beside Yan Ruyu.
This sudden turn of events left everyone stunned.
Yan Ruyu was also shocked, staring at the young man who had suddenly appeared, her eyes both excited and panicked.
However, the young man came to her side and gently draped the slipping dress back onto her.
"Your dress should only be taken off for someone you love," the young man said softly to Yan Ruyu.
Yan Ruyu could no longer hold back, covering her mouth as she sobbed uncontrollably.
Yan Wu, seeing this, was also immensely moved.
But Zhang Feng was staring fiercely at this sudden young man, asking coldly, "Who are you?"
Upon hearing this, the young man's eyes immediately grew cold. He glanced at Yan Wu lying on the ground and then at Zhang Feng, whose foot was still on Yan Wu's body, and said coldly, "Aren't you looking for Xu Nian? I am the Xu Nian you are looking for."
As soon as these words were spoken, including Zhang Feng, all three young men were taken aback.
