Chapter 342: Chapter 337: Central Area's Obstruction_1
```
Watching Mu Huanqing's frenzied assault on the Large Barrier, Xia Yuntian spoke again, "Hui Qing, do you think you can kill me with your current strength?"
Mu Huanqing did not answer, outside the Large Formation there was only the continuous rumbling.
"Even if you can break the Large Formation, let alone killing me, it would be very difficult to even injure me. If I counterattack, the only outcome will be your death," Xia Yuntian continued.
"Do you think I care about that!?"
Mu Huanqing roared with her eyes filled with bloodshot fury.
She was like a wild beast fighting for its life, reckless and utterly mad.
Xia Yuntian's gaze fixed on Mu Huanqing for a few seconds, then he suddenly understood something.
"Don't you think you are being very selfish?" Xia Yuntian suddenly asked.
Bang!
Mu Huanqing's palm gathered a blue glow, and after a long period of probing, she had finally found the Formation's weak point through the Array Method Extreme.
With a single palm, the Hundred-Mile Barrier instantly burst apart, turning into specks of light in the sky.
Immediately after, she did not hesitate to lift up her spear and charge towards Xia Yuntian in the sky, who, seeing this, activated his Cultivation Technique to defend.
With no barrier's protection, their True Qi collided and struck the valley within the barrier, uprooting trees and blasting rivers into the sky, turning into raindrops.
"What right do you have to call me selfish!" Mu Huanqing gritted her teeth as she slashed at Xia Yuntian.
Facing Mu Huanqing's suicidal onslaught, Xia Yuntian was surprisingly struggling; he hadn't anticipated that the severely injured Mu Huanqing would still possess such destructive power.
"Isn't it true?" Xia Yuntian replied while defending, "You have always been clever, you would never do such a thing that disregards the innocent and violates natural justice! If I'm not mistaken, you're not doing this for revenge for those fallen warriors! You are simply venting out for someone very important to you! And that person has already died on the battlefield!
What you want is for everyone here to be buried with him!"
With these words, Mu Huanqing involuntarily recalled the way Fang Ren sacrificed his life to save hers before dying, and her heartache and hatred drove her even more insane.
"You're right! I want all of you to be buried with him!!"
Having said that, Mu Huanqing took out the large amount of elixirs that Fang Ren had given her, without any concern, she swallowed them all at once.
Today, she no longer aspired to be the respected and revered Xuan Nv; she wanted to be a wife, a mother to her child, avenging her husband, her child's father!
"Hui Qing! You're mad!"
Watching Mu Huanqing swallow an unknown number of elixirs in one go, Xia Yuntian was completely thrown into disarray. .net
Mu Huanqing was originally in a critically injured state, and he had the strength to defeat her; his plan was not to harm Mu Huanqing but simply to hold her off until the Central Area's army arrived.
In the end, he too would obey the Central Area's judgment, by then Central Area would also stop Mu Huanqing from killing innocents.
Only now did Xia Yuntian realize that he had thought everything was too simple.
She was resolved to fight to the death.
Who was it?
Who exactly died before her eyes? What made her so indifferent to the lives of the innocent?
Shang Han? Or Mu Tianyu?
Bang bang bang—
Rumbling—
With the elixirs in her stomach, Mu Huanqing summoned hundreds of Divine Weapons behind her, and her powerful True Qi forced Xia Yuntian, who had been only defending, into a position where he couldn't fight back.
Spurt!
Xia Yuntian was struck in the chest with a palm and immediately spewed a mouthful of fresh blood as his figure was flung backward.
Actually, at that instant when Mu Huanqing gave up all defense to attack, he had a chance to fight back, but he didn't.
He didn't want to hurt Mu Huanqing, and his moral code did not allow him to harm her. None of this was Mu Huanqing's fault; it was his daughter who had made her into this person.
And even if he had fought back, he probably still wouldn't have been able to defeat Mu Huanqing after she had swallowed so many elixirs.
Whether he fought back or not wouldn't change the outcome; he didn't fight back because he merely hoped that Mu Huanqing would spare those innocent disciples.
"Die!"
Mu Huanqing's spear left her hand, flying straight towards Xia Yuntian's chest.
"Father!"
Suddenly, a streak of golden light swept from afar, and the spear that was about to pierce through Xia Yuntian was deflected in mid-flight.
Soon after, Xia Fu Lan, dressed in Taoist robes, flew from the distance to Xia Yuntian's side.
With a Bronze Mirror in her hand, the golden light was emitted from this mirror.
Without that mirror, given Xia Fu Lan's Cultivation Level, she would have been utterly unable to stop Mu Huanqing's strike, and would not even have been able to catch a single slap from her.
"You scoundrel!"
```
Xia Yuntian saw his daughter rushing to save him, and instantly, the rage in his heart erupted.
He delivered a solid slap to Xia Fu Lan's face, and the next moment, fresh blood poured from the corner of her mouth, with half of her face swelling up immediately.
"Father… I was saving you…"
Having been slapped by Xia Yuntian, Xia Fu Lan was completely stunned; she had never been hit by her father before. She couldn't believe that the first time she was hit by her father, she was nearly knocked unconscious.
"You still have the face to call me father!!"
Xia Yuntian, without another word, slapped her again, causing several of Xia Fu Lan's teeth to fly out of her mouth as her hair was nearly all shattered by the True Qi.
"Why… Why!!"
Xia Fu Lan went mad, howling at Xia Yuntian, "It was her who wanted to kill you! Was it wrong for me to save you? Why are you hitting me!?"
Smack—
Another slap!
"Today, it's not wrong for anyone to come to kill me!" Xia Yuntian roared back: "Including you! It's not wrong if anyone kills you! Whoever can kill you is right!!"
As he shouted, Xia Yuntian's eyes turned red. He had never been so furious and heartbroken; his beloved fellow warriors had all been killed by his own flesh and blood!
"You've gone mad…"
Xia Fu Lan looked at her frenzied father and immediately turned to flee, constantly telling herself that this was not her father, her father could never do this to her.
Boom—
The moment Xia Fu Lan turned around, a streak of silver light shot out from Mu Huanqing's hand and shattered the earth in front of Xia Fu Lan.
"Xia Fu Lan!"
The instant she saw Xia Fu Lan, the last bit of sanity in Mu Huanqing's heart completely crumbled.
Because of this woman!
So many of her sisters had died! So many warriors of the Central Area had perished!
Because of this woman, her own child had lost his father just after being born!
It was also because of this woman that the person she was willing to sacrifice everything for to be with openly, died at the hands of the Void beast while trying to save her!
Unforgivable!
No matter what, unforgivable!
Xia Fu Lan must die!
Mu Huanqing transformed into a streak of light and charged towards Xia Fu Lan, while Xia Yuntian immediately moved to stop her upon seeing this.
"Xia Yuntian!!"
"Hui Qing! You can't kill anyone here now!"
"Go to hell!"
Without the slightest hesitation, Mu Huanqing chopped off one of Xia Yuntian's arms with her spear, then aimed directly to pierce his heart.
"Hui Qing! Stop!"
Just when Mu Huanqing was about to strike, countless figures rushed over from behind.
The army from the Central Area had arrived.
As her words fell, a long rainbow struck against the spear in her hand, sending her flying back.
The person who took action was clearly the Commander-in-Chief of the Central Area, Xia Mo.
"You'd also stop me!"
Mu Huanqing grabbed the Hundred Martial Divine Weapon and flung it towards the approaching Xia Mo.
Xia Mo was startled by Mu Huanqing's attack; he wanted to defend himself, but already exhausted on the battlefield, the blow he had delivered to save Xia Yuntian had taken all his strength.
Thud!
The blow struck Xia Mo solidly, sending his figure soaring backward, with blood spewing from his mouth.
"Stop me again, and I'll kill you!" Mu Huanqing shouted angrily.
"Hui Qing! The one at fault isn't him!" Xia Mo yelled back.
"Then what was Fang Ren's fault! What did he do to deserve death! Why did he have to die! Why!! Tell me!!"
Mu Huanqing grabbed the hair by her temples, crying and screaming in madness: "If he could be brought back to life! I wouldn't blink an eye at sparing them! I'd even give my own life without hesitation!"
Xia Mo became petrified, suddenly having nothing to say. Innocence, fault, these concepts meant nothing at this moment, in Mu Huanqing's world, the whole world was at fault.
