Chapter 585: Chapter 585: Leave Your Life Behind! (3 more)

Ding, ding, ding!

Sparks flew in all directions as Hong Li wielded his sword of no small quality. Coupled with being a gold element martial artist whose elemental power possessed an incomparable sharpness, his strike upon the chains was almost as easy as slicing tofu.

One chain after another fell to the ground, and Young Master Nangong, who had been wrapped in chains on the torture rack, slumped, tumbling down. Yuu Qian quickly stepped forward, catching him in his arms, and said with a sycophantic smile, "Young Master Nangong, how are you?"

Naturally, currying favor with the royal family of the Tianyang Empire was worthwhile, and although Yuu Qian’s own family was not bad, it was nothing compared to the royal family, not even worth a fart.

Nangong Yin, groggy and dizzy, lifted his head; with sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes, his appearance was quite handsome. His strength was probably around the late stage of the Origin Transformation Realm. Although he was not very learned, he was an offspring of the Tianyang royal family, possessing a not-so-poor bloodline. Moreover, having consumed countless heavenly materials and earthly treasures since childhood, it was normal for him to reach the Origin Transformation Realm in his cultivation.

Clearly having suffered considerable abuse, his body was covered in bloodstains, and his face was ashen. He gave the group a weak glance but lacked the strength to speak for a long while.

"We should leave now."

Sweeping a glance around the environment, Hong Li took the lead, walking at the forefront.

Yuu Qian carried Nangong Yin on his back, seeing this as a perfect opportunity to prove his worth to Young Master Nangong. If he could make the young master comfortable, perhaps he could reap some benefits in the future.

"What a good dog!"

Ling Feng snorted lightly. Nangong Yin’s character aside, this Yuu Qian was simply the face of a traitor!

Truth be told, Ling Feng was hugely tempted to slaughter both of these scoundrels with a single sword stroke.

Yue Yunlan gently tugged at Ling Feng’s sleeve, giving him a slight shake of her head, her eyes carrying a hint of pleading.

"Ah!" Ling Feng sighed softly, walking with the Despicable Donkey towards the back of the group, an uneasy feeling creeping into his heart: Wasn’t this operation going a bit too smoothly?

Boom, boom, boom!

Just as Hong Li opened the secret door, preparing to escape according to the plan, firelight surged around the rockery, and countless torches lit up, completely sealing the rockery pond area.

There were well over three hundred people surrounding Ling Feng and company, including seven or eight emperor-level experts.

"Indeed, I knew it wouldn’t be that easy." Ling Feng shook his head, realizing that a fierce battle was inevitable.

However, the thought of fighting for someone as despicable as Nangong Yin made him somewhat reluctant.

Seeing the glaring fire torches, Hong Li’s complexion turned extremely ugly; this was clearly a trap.

No wonder everything had gone so smoothly. Hong Li had never imagined that what he thought was a flawlessly executed plan would end up with him hooked like a turtle!

Calculations, it was all calculations!

However, fortunately, they had the aid of a Demon Emperor on their side, unafraid of the enemy’s numerical superiority.

"You lapdogs of the Tianyang Empire, how bold of you!"

At that moment, a thin elder clad in a long white robe, exuding an aura of the Divine Origin Realm, slowly emerged from the crowd, his mighty presence causing Hong Li and the others to shiver slightly in their calves.

Divine Origin Realm Ninth Layer!

This person’s cultivation had actually reached such a terrifying level.

Though not yet at the king-level, he was not far off.

No wonder Nangong Yao, even with several Divine Origin Realm guards, still fell into the clutches of the Lei Family.

"Senior, we are not the lackeys of the Tianyang Empire."

With a firm resolve, Hong Li stepped forward, removed his mask, and bowed respectfully to the white-robed elder. "Not to deceive you, senior, but we are actually disciples of the Cangqiong Sect. We hope you can show leniency for the sake of our Sect Master Yue and let this man go."

"Humph, since when did the people of the Cangqiong Sect become the claws of the Tianyang Empire?" sneered the white-robed elder coldly. "This so-called National Guardian Divine Sect is truly laughable!"

"You!" Yue Yunlan gritted her silver teeth, unable to hold back as she stepped forward and exclaimed, "You have no right to slander the Cangqiong Sect!"

"Hmph, it doesn’t matter who comes, this person has brought shame upon my Lei Family. Unless the Royal Family of the Tianyang Empire comes forward to apologize and beg for mercy on their knees, don’t even dream about me letting this brat off!"

The elder’s eyes blazed with firelight, showing a tough and uncompromising manner.

"Indeed!" At this moment, another young man in his twenties stepped out from the Lei Family’s ranks, clenching his fists tightly, his eyes bloodshot as he glared at Nangong Yao, veins bulging in fury.

"I won’t let Xiu’er die in vain! I wish I could flay this scoundrel’s skin and pull out his tendons!"

Judging by the young man’s rage, it seemed that this was none other than Lei Ming, the eldest young master of the Lei Family.

Anyone who had been cuckolded to such an extent would surely struggle to remain calm.

To have the phrase "Nangong Yin touched here" despicably inscribed on his wife’s chest, it was no wonder that the woman named Xiu’er chose suicide.

Not just Lei Ming, even Ling Feng felt a strong urge to slaughter Nangong Yao.

"Ha ha ha!" At this time, Nangong Yin, who was lying on Yuu Qian’s back, not only showed no sign of remorse but instead laughed out loud. "Lei, I played with your wife, what can you do about it? I’m a Prince of the Tianyang Empire! If you know what’s good for you, you’ll let me go. Otherwise, the iron hooves of my Tianyang Empire will surely trample down your Lei Residence, trample down the entire Duling City!"

What does it mean to be a profligate son?

This Nangong Yin was the perfect embodiment of the term, and a reckless one at that.

Even Hong Li was sweating at the thought, knowing full well that with such a loose cannon, the Lei Family would surely stop at nothing.

"Did you hear that?" seethed the white-robed elder, "My Lei Family does not wish to be an enemy of the Cangqiong Sect. Release that scum, and I will let you leave safely!"

"Senior, we understand your feelings, and we urge you to consider the bigger picture."

Yue Yunlan clenched her fists tightly, her teeth gritted as she said, "Do you realize that if you insist on detaining Nangong Yin, it will inevitably lead to a war between the two nations, a war that will result in rivers of blood?"

"So what?" Lei Ming ground his teeth and said, "If we go to war with the Tianyang Empire, my Lei Family is willing to donate all our wealth to the state treasury! All those Tianyang bastards deserve to die!"

The white-robed elder took a deep breath and said slowly, "Ming’er’s attitude represents my own. The Cangqiong Sect has its force field, but my Lei Family is no soft persimmon that anyone can squeeze!"

"Either leave peacefully on your own accord or leave your lives behind! It’s your choice to make!"

The white-robed elder’s eyes flashed coldly as a terrifying killing intent swept across the room, engulfing everyone present.

"Leave our lives behind?"

Just then, Despicable Donkey stepped out from the ranks, his gaze sweeping over the crowd with a cold sneer, "Do you really think these few insignificant fish can demand a Divine Beast to leave its life behind?"

Despicable Donkey chuckled, his eyes finally resting on the white-robed elder, word by word he said, "Old fellow, don’t you think you’re underestimating an Emperor-level Expert a bit too much?"
