Chapter 25: Chapter 21 Nana, you must hold on to a good man quickly!_1
```
Luo Yu looked wordlessly towards the foxy beauty beside him.
"Nana, did your brother learn how to change his face or something? He was so cool and aloof just a moment ago, and now..."
Luo Yu didn't finish his sentence, but how could Hulena not understand?
The man obviously stopped talking in order to save her face.
Seeing her big brother act so cowardly, she herself wished she could find a hole to crawl into.
It was really... too embarrassing.
And she clearly had nothing to do with Luo Yu.
How could her brother arbitrarily set her up like this, effectively selling her out?
What would Luo Yu think of her now?
Would he think she was cheap?
Hulena was both angry and embarrassed, her beautiful eyes glaring as she felt like beating Evil Moon to a pulp.
However, she could somewhat understand why Evil Moon was acting so cowardly; Luo Yu had casually humiliated Yan earlier, a scene that was indeed hair-raising for anyone who witnessed it.
Yan was no ordinary person; he was one of the top geniuses of the Martial Soul Hall, and his strength was on par with hers and her brother's.
Having witnessed Yan getting decimated, Evil Moon naturally felt the terror of a frightened rabbit, extremely afraid that Luo Yu would turn that deadly hand on him.
Evil Moon directed a pleading look at his sister, "Nana, help me plead with your brother-in-law. I was out of line just now, completely blind."
"Evil Moon, let's stop humiliating ourselves!" Hulena stamped her foot in frustration, "Who's your brother-in-law? Brother Yu is my friend, don't talk nonsense anymore."
"Alright," Luo Yu intervened, halting their conversation with a smile, "It's all trivial matters, it's in the past."
Seeing that smile made Evil Moon shudder.
Trivial matters?
His neck stiffly rotated to look at the badly beaten Yan.
If these were deemed trivial matters, capable of battering someone to this state, wouldn't your serious matters demolish the Martial Soul Hall?
But seeing Luo Yu not appearing to pursue the issue, Evil Moon was greatly relieved.
Phew, finally safe!
Hulena had a look of deep resentment; Evil Moon might not care about losing face, but she did.
It was very humiliating for her older brother to be such a coward, especially in front of Luo Yu, making Hulena even more uncomfortable.
She pulled Evil Moon to the side and whispered urgently, "Brother, can you not be so lacking in dignity? Luo Yu is actually quite approachable; pull yourself together."
With a mournful face, Evil Moon replied, "Sister, I want to be brave too, and I care about my face, but I can't help being scared."
Hulena rolled her eyes repeatedly. It was over, he was scared witless, beyond hope.
Evil Moon's eyes suddenly shifted, sneakily glancing at Luo Yu, and he insidiously suggested, "Sis, if you hook up with him, then I wouldn't have to be scared anymore."
"Brother! Can't you be serious for once!!" Hulena puffed up her cheeks, indignantly saying, "If you keep this up, I won't bother with you anymore."
Evil Moon earnestly pleaded,
"I'm doing this for your own good. I don't know this guy's background, but just from that move he pulled earlier, in this vast world, among our peers, who can match him?"
"Don't you dare think I'm always a coward; it depends on who I'm facing, okay?"
"Aside from this forefather, give me any other opponent and see if I don't flay them."
Hulena scoffed coldly, "Heh, this is the first time I've seen someone justify being a bully but cowardly with such righteousness. Today has been quite enlightening."
"Eek! Is this how you talk about your own brother? Among our peers, as long as it's not this forefather, I can take on anyone!" Evil Moon raised an eyebrow.
"Oh."
Evil Moon spoke with emphasis, "Such a monstrous genius, you have to seize the opportunity. If you continue to be so reserved, it definitely won't work; who knows, maybe someone else will snatch away your male god one day."
"I don't want to listen to you talk." Hulena blushed crimson.
"Am I wrong? Besides, haven't you always wished for a man who can truly subdue you?"
Hulena said irritably, "Brother, you were just telling Yan earlier to stay away from me."
Evil Moon scratched his head awkwardly, "That was before I realized he was so fierce."
"Tch, should I call you a fair-weather friend, or just hypocritical?"
"I don't want to be like you."
Hulena looked at him disdainfully, leaving him hanging and running back to Luo Yu.
"What were you two discussing just now?" Luo Yu asked with a smile.
"No... nothing much," Hulena became coy, looking down at her ample bosom.
"Look at you, blushing. I won't ask then."
"Brother Yu..."
"What is it?" Luo Yu looked perplexedly at the girl.
"You're really nice, hehe." Hulena lifted her head and gave a sweet smile.
From afar, Evil Moon pursed his lips repeatedly, seeing through his sister's insincerity.
He would bet that if his sister wasn't interested in that man, he'd stand on his hands and eat three kilos of manure.
```
If she didn't have a good impression, would a goddess properly call another man "Daddy"?
Not even ghosts would believe that!
Evil Moon secretly hoped, Sister, oh sister, you must latch onto those strong thighs.
Until today, Evil Moon always thought he was the real deal.
Today, it was like getting half his life back, and he suddenly had an epiphany.
It turns out, I was the clown myself.
I, Evil Moon, am just a little brother! I'll never pretend again.
"Swoosh!"
A red streak of light, majestic and powerful, flew from afar, arriving in an instant.
It was an elder, precisely the Seventh Elder from the awakening ceremony earlier, who shakily stood beside Yan.
The complexions of Evil Moon and Hulena changed.
"Damn, the Seventh Elder is Yan's mentor!"
"Seeing his disciple beaten up like this, won't this old guy crush Luo Yu to pieces?"
"No matter how strong Luo Yu is, he can't beat a Hyper Douluo."
"Brother Yu, we have to go." Hulena nervously grabbed Luo Yu's hand, wanting to take him away quickly.
But motionless, Luo Yu just stood there, quietly watching.
The Seventh Elder's expression was one of grief and indignation, his trembling hands caressing Yan's body, transferring Soul Power to heal him, "My disciple, who has injured you like this, your master has come too late!"
"It was him... him... it was him..."
"Master... avenge me..."
Yan struggled to open his eyes, blood frothed from his mouth, making it hard to speak, as he feebly pointed at Luo Yu.
"Still not dead? Quite tenacious to hang on to life," remarked Luo Yu, surprised.
Hulena was desperately anxious, "What are you doing cracking jokes at a time like this?"
The Seventh Elder was heartbroken, "Wait, my disciple, your master will avenge you!"
"Boom!"
The Seventh Elder stood up, his Nine Soul Rings revolving and shooting out in anger, his fury palpable as he glared at Luo Yu with gritted teeth.
"You little rat, I knew you were no good the moment I saw you in the plaza, and sure enough, I was right. Dare to wantonly injure my disciple, I will have you pay with your blood," he said.
Luo Yu faced the onslaught of the Seventh Elder's presence head-on, his spine straight and unafraid, "Old man, didn't you even ask why your disciple was beaten? You want to judge others without knowing the facts?"
The Seventh Elder sneered with a frown, pointing at Yan, "Facts speak louder than words."
"Facts? What facts? Your disciple reaped what he sowed; he failed to commit rape and got beaten up instead. He pretended to be tough and got a harsh beating, and you blame someone else?"
Luo Yu and Hulena were taken aback, as they hadn't spoken yet, and the voice came from behind them.
Evil Moon's face showed mockery, overly protective of Luo Yu.
The Seventh Elder instantly shifted his gaze, pressing his Soul Power towards Evil Moon, "What are you clamoring about? Taking the side of an outsider, are you seeking death?"
Lacking Luo Yu's resilience, Evil Moon spat out blood, his pitiful appearance contrasting with how quickly he wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.
"How ridiculous. What do you mean taking sides with outsiders? First, I, Evil Moon, always speak the harsh truth; second, that's my brother-in-law!"
Having said that, he glanced at Hulena with pride, as if to say,
Look, your brother isn't a coward. As long as it's not this ancestor, I dare to confront even a Hyper Douluo.
The Seventh Elder was so angry his hair stood on end, "Even the youngsters from the Martial Soul Hall have no manners now? I thought to deal with him first, but since you so eager to die, I'll accommodate you first."
The Seventh Elder's aged face revealed a cruel smile, while Hulena's seductive face was filled with anxious worry.
"Swoosh!"
The Seventh Elder flicked his sleeve, sending out a Bone Penetrating Nail made of purple Soul Power, whizzing through the air, aiming straight for Evil Moon's chest.
"Brother!" Hulena cried out instantly, her eyes reddening.
Even if a Hyper Douluo attacked casually, she was too late to rescue him. What to do? Despite any arguments or fights, that was her own brother!
Evil Moon's face turned deathly pale, on the verge of tears, wishing he could slap himself. Why did he let his mouth run in the heat of the moment, irritating this old man, who now cared for nothing but to take his life?
The Bone Penetrating Nail caused a sonic boom as it hurtled through the air.
Evil Moon's legs went numb, unable to dodge, scared out of his wits, thinking his end was near.
However, Luo Yu's eyes gleamed sharply.
"Clang!"
A clear, resounding sound of a sword rang out.
The figure of the Banished Immortal, holding a sword, rushed forward, landing in front of Evil Moon, raising the sword to block.
"Clang!!"
The Bone Penetrating Nail struck the sword.
An ear-piercing clang of metal on metal immediately resounded.
Hulena's mouth hung open, her reddening eyes suddenly contracting.
Evil Moon stood frozen, never expecting him to come to his rescue…
