Chapter 285: Chapter 285: The Duel of the Innate (Three)

As his body neared Mu Ruyue, it was clear he was still too late, and he could only watch helplessly as the green storm engulfed the girl’s body…

Despair slowly gnawed at his heart, while a fury surged from his chest, making him want to destroy heaven and earth, but even more overwhelming was the deep regret…

If… if he hadn’t Sealed her strength, perhaps she would have already left this place. And if he hadn’t believed Feng Xiang’s words, she wouldn’t have encountered such peril.

Ultimately, it was all his fault!

This woman was the only one he had accepted apart from his deceased mother, the one he wanted to protect for a lifetime, but he never imagined that in the end, he would be the one to harm her!

“Woman!”

Feng Jingtian bellowed with a heart-wrenching howl.

That voice was like a spike piercing through everyone’s heart…

Back when the main mistress endured the Fire Punishment, the young master who was restrained by everyone had screamed in the same heart-wrenching manner.

“More than a decade ago, I couldn’t protect my mother, and now I can’t even protect the woman I love.” Feng Jingtian stood up, his demonically handsome face filled with endless sorrow and irony, “It seems I’m really just a waste! If that’s the case, then I’ll accompany her to hell, even if it costs everything I have to be forgiven.”

A waste who could only watch helplessly as the people he wanted to protect died in front of him…

He lifted his gaze to the storm in front, slowly walked towards it, Feng Xiang’s heart suddenly filled with dread, about to intervene, when a streak of red light flashed by, cutting through the condensed green storm, and struck directly at Feng Xiang.

Feng Xiang had no chance to react, his body was violently hurled away, crashing with a bang against a tree.

Everyone was stunned, their astonished gazes turning toward the front…

The storm slowly dissipated in the wind, revealing a figure in bloodstained white robes. Although the girl’s attire was now tattered and lacked the initial dazzle, her aura was so compelling that no one could avert their eyes.

“Pfft!”

The girl suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, her body swaying and leaning forward.

“Woman!”

Before Feng Jingtian could feel relieved, he saw the girl’s falling figure, his demonically beautiful face tinged with urgency, his red clothes flashing as he deftly caught her in his arms.

Mu Ruyue looked feeble at this moment, her pale face caused Feng Jingtian’s heart to clench painfully, the remorse was beyond bearing, and he repeatedly apologized, “I’m sorry, woman, it’s my fault, I shouldn’t have Sealed your power, shouldn’t have forcibly kept you here, and I shouldn’t have believed his words and left you alone here, knowing Feng Xiang’s dissatisfaction towards you, you can hit me, scold me, kill me, it’s all my fault!”

Mu Ruyue didn’t speak, she closed her eyes wearily, her pale appearance heartbreakingly weak.

She had already been drained of a lot of strength due to Lan Xin and the others before; now, after breaking through the Innate, she had been through a battle, and currently, her body had reached its limit…

If not for the golden silk soft armor that Wuchen had given her, Feng Jingtian’s strike might have meant she could never rise again.

“Cough cough.” Feng Jingtian coughed dryly, picking himself up from the ground, fresh blood gushed from his chest, staining his entire robe red.

It was obvious that Mu Ruyue’s last counterattack had inflicted serious injuries on him.

“Jingtian, you are my son, and now I command you to kill that woman!” Feng Xiang, seeing his own son so protective of Mu Ruyue, roared with a towering rage.
