Chapter 280: Chapter 280: Breakthrough to Innate (8) Chapter 280: Chapter 280: Breakthrough to Innate (8) “Send someone, beat her to death!”

Lan Xin’s brows were furrowed with malice, the gaze she cast upon Mu Ruyue flashing with deep venom. A bloodthirsty smile curled at her lips as if Mu Ruyue before her was nothing more than an insignificant ant.

“In this world, it’s the survival of the fittest. A powerless trash like you living here is nothing but suffering. So, you should be grateful to me, for soon you will be rid of this agony…”

She lifted her chin, looking down at Mu Ruyue from her superior position.

Boom!

A Flame Fist struck Mu Ruyue fiercely, sending her body flying backward, crashing through the screen and breaking it in two, a trickle of blood spilling from her lips.

The followers who came with Lan Xin weren’t as brainless as her, expecting that Mu Ruyue, who had been sitting there so calmly, really had a trick up her sleeve. Little did they know, she couldn’t muster even the slightest resistance.

Her previously calm and composed appearance was nothing but a bluff.

“Hahaha!”

Mocking laughter filled the room.

A disciple of the Lan Family lifted his head and laughed raucously, his eyes filled with scorn: “Why pretend to be anything other than what you are? With you being such trash, seeing so many of us come for you should have made you grateful or trembling in fear, yet you dare to act tough with us! I can’t understand what the Young Master of the Feng Family saw in you, to abandon Lady Lan Yue for you, you’re not even worthy of carrying Lan Yue’s shoes!”

“Hehe, though this woman is useless, she is a stunning beauty. How about I take her as my concubine? I will make her crave immortality, crave death, and be unable to quit me, never able to leave!”

The man who spoke had a lecherous face and his evil gaze was fixed on the girl’s exquisite features.

However, throughout it all, Mu Ruyue’s expression remained unchanged…

Boom!

Boom boom boom!

Layers of Qi struck her body, the brutal force turning her face white in an instant, her expressionless face watching those mocking visages.

Perhaps this is what’s called ‘A tiger, when it loses its might, is humiliated by dogs’!

Mu Ruyue sneered and began to circulate the Dan Book within her…

Ever since her fight outside the Mu Residence with Xiao Min, she had discovered that the Dan Book could absorb the power of the same attribute and convert it for her own use, although she hadn’t had the chance to try it again since then.

This time, she had even perceived the existence of Innate Power within the high tower, and all she needed to do was to concentrate the Qi at a single point to break through. Previously she might have needed months to achieve such a feat. Of course, it was different if someone else aided her…

Watching those attacks fall upon the girl, Lan Xin sneered, “You tramp, this time I want to see who can save you. Feng Jingtian has already been expelled from Feng City; no one can help you!”

And today was her death day…

Thinking of the slap Feng Jingtian had given her back then, Lan Xin clenched her fists tighter, the cruel smile on her beautiful face growing even colder, her eyes filled with ruthless venom.

“Pfft!”

Mu Ruyue spat out a mouthful of blood, staining her white clothes red.

Yet, she remained expressionless, her eyes and brows revealing an air of indifference.

The power of the Dan Book circulated within her, countless streams of red Elemental Power seeping into her body. They were then enveloped by a bundle of power and sent into the Dantian. She couldn’t be bothered with other attributes at the moment, allowing those forces to harm her body…

“Bring them in and beat her to death!”

Lan Xin’s brows were furrowed in malevolence as she watched Mu Ruyue, her gaze flickering with deep venom. A bloodthirsty smile curled on her lips, as if Mu Ruyue was nothing more than an insignificant ant in her eyes.

“In this world, it’s the survival of the fittest. A powerless trash like you only lives in agony here, so you should be thanking me. Soon, you’ll be free from this pain…”

She lifted her chin, looking down condescendingly at Mu Ruyue in front of her.

Boom!

A Flame Fist struck Mu Ruyue harshly, sending her body flying backward and splitting the screen behind her in two, a trickle of fresh blood spilling from her lips.

The followers who came with Lan Xin were not as brainless as she. Initially, when they saw Mu Ruyue sitting there composedly, they thought she was confident, not realizing she possessed no power to resist at all.

Her seeming calm and collected demeanor was nothing but a bluff.

“Hahaha!”

The mocking laughter spread throughout the entire room.

A disciple of the Lan Family threw his head back in wild laughter, his eyes filled with mockery, “What’s the point of pretending? As a worthless piece of trash, seeing so many of us here should either leave you in grateful tears or trembling with fear, and yet you dare put on airs with us! I really don’t know what kind of eyesight the Feng Family’s young master has, to fancy a woman like you, abandoning our Lady Lan Yue. You’re not even worthy of carrying Lan Yue’s shoes!”

“Heh, even though this woman is trash, she is an absolute beauty. Why not give her to me to be my concubine? It would be such a waste for such a stunning beauty to go unused! Giving her to me would be getting good value, hahaha!”

The man who spoke had a lecherous face, his evil gaze sweeping over the girl’s exquisite features.

However, from beginning to end, Mu Ruyue’s expression remained unchanged…

Boom!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Layer upon layer of Qi pounded on her body. The brutal force turned her complexion deathly pale as she emotionlessly watched the laughing faces.

Perhaps this was the so-called situation where a tiger falls to the plains and is bullied by dogs!

Mu Ruyue started to smirk coldly as she began to operate the Dan Book within her body…

Ever since her battle outside Mu Residence with Xiao Min, she had discovered that the Dan Book could transform Qi of the same attribute into her own. She had not had a chance to try it again after that occasion.

This time, she further understood the existence of Innate Power within the tower. Merely by concentrating Qi at a single point, she could achieve a breakthrough. Normally, it would have taken her months to attain such an achievement, unless someone else assisted her, of course…

Watching the attacks descending on the girl, Lan Xin smirked coldly, “Bitch, this time I’ll see who can save you. Feng Jingtian has already been expelled from Feng City; nobody can help you now!”

And today would be her death day…

Remembering the slap Feng Jingtian had once thrown at her, Lan Xin clenched her fists tightly, the cold sneer on her beautiful face intensifying, her eyes filled with vicious cruelty.

“Ptui!”

A gush of fresh blood sprayed from Mu Ruyue’s mouth, staining her white clothes red.

Yet, her face remained expressionless, her brows and eyes exuding a sense of indifference.

The power of the Dan Book circulated within her body. Countless red Elemental Powers seeped inside her and were enveloped by a sphere of force that delivered them into the Dantian. She couldn’t spare the time to consider the other attributes; she could only let those forces injure her body…
