Li Shouyuan said nothing. He merely shifted aside, revealing the figure behind him.
"Elder Shi!" Li Feifei cried out.
Hearing this, Zhang Yu hurriedly looked up. Sure enough, it was his master, Shi Cangyue. His feelings toward Shi Cangyue were exceedingly complicated.
Shi Cangyue had treated him very well, directly giving him thirty top-grade Blood-Nourishing Pills. After Zhang Yu killed Ye Ditian, Shi Cangyue had injured the Ye Family Patriarch to protect him, intimidating the entire Ye Family.
He had never expected that, at the very moment he needed help most, Shi Cangyue would appear as if by magic.
"Master, why are you here?" Zhang Yu looked at Shi Cangyue in confusion. The person who had delivered the letter had only just left.
After learning that Withered Soul Hall assassins had appeared in Spirit Hidden City, Shi Cangyue had rushed to Phoenix Tower City without delay.
"Hmph. You were targeted for assassination by Withered Soul Hall killers, yet you didn't tell your master immediately. Zhang Yu, do you still have any respect for me?" Shi Cangyue sternly demanded.
Though his voice was harsh, his eyes were filled with concern.
Zhang Yu could feel that concern.
"Master, I was wrong." Zhang Yu obediently admitted his mistake.
"You still know you were wrong? You've got quite the nerve. You'd only been in Phoenix Tower City for one day, and you already killed Sima Yan's daughter, Sima Shu." Shi Cangyue snorted coldly.
Wearing an obedient expression, Zhang Yu weakly defended himself. "Sima Shu called me a dog. If I'm a dog, then what does that make Master? She dared to insult Master in such a roundabout way. The ancients said, when a master is humiliated, a disciple fights to the death. So I had no choice but to send her to her death."
