Chapter 1042 - 1042 1028 The Death of Si Nanyu

Chapter 1042: Chapter 1028: The Death of Si Nanyu Chapter 1042: Chapter 1028: The Death of Si Nanyu Jiu Hu climbed up and was greatly surprised to see Baili He—one of the three top experts under Qiandu Xiang’s command.

Jiu Hu had no confidence that he could deal with him and called out, “Junior Sister, you go first,” as he drew his steel blade.

“Thinking of escaping from in front of me? That’s a pipe dream,” scoffed Baili He. To him, Qiandu Xiang only wanted Ouyang Yue and Si Nanyu alive, not the others.

With Qiandu Xiang’s ruthless attacks pouring forth, even if Si Nanyu and Nangong Yao joined forces, they were no match for him.

Wan Liyun was dumbfounded and asked, “Big brother, are you sure you can take on Qiandu Xiang?”

It seemed Qiandu Xiang truly was a talent. His martial arts were even more formidable than imagined. Shaking his head, he replied, “No confidence.”

“They seem like they’re about to surround us,” Wan Liyun said with some concern.

Shao Hengjiang was also worried. For some reason, this anxiety just came over him. Perhaps it was because Qiandu Xiang was such a vile character—should the Sacred Spirit Stone fall into his hands, it would undoubtedly be a disaster.

Some of the minor thugs, who had just surged out, lacked a unified command. Realizing that the Key Box was fake, they quickly lost morale. Moreover, Qiandu Xiang’s men, who came up, were extremely fierce, leading some to choose to withdraw.

Soon only Si Nanyu and Nangong Yao’s people were left.

An executioner killed his way out from a hidden spot.

Nangong Yao patted Si Nanyu and said, “We should retreat.”

But Qiandu Xiang was too formidable. Trying to easily shake him off was truly difficult. He quickly said to the masked Nangong Yao, “Uncle Master, you go first, I’ll cover the rear.”

Seeing that they couldn’t get rid of Qiandu Xiang and with Baili He re-entering the fray, the situation was getting worse as more and more people arrived. Nangong Yao urgently said, “Then you must follow quickly.”

“Rest assured.”

Qiandu Xiang launched an attack, fierce as a dragon or tiger. Without Nangong Yao’s help, Si Nanyu was utterly outclassed. More confident than ever, Qiandu Xiang sneered, “Your little martial arts skills are laughable. Go and practice for a couple more years.”

An unwilling Si Nanyu leaped up and shouted fiercely, unleashing several bolts of lightning to strike Qiandu Xiang dead. But Qiandu Xiang used his Dodging Technique, turning the energy Si Nanyu had unleashed back on him, striking Si Nanyu from the air back to the ground.

Si Nanyu summoned up the Spiritual Stone behind him and slammed it down, only for Qiandu Xiang to crush it into tofu dregs with a single palm strike.

Si Nanyu called forth a powerful righteous energy, like a soaring dragon.

Qiandu Xiang scoffed, “You dare to embarrass yourself with these two moves in front of me?” He also summoned a powerful righteous energy, but it was incomparable to Si Nanyu’s.

With a loud boom, he dissolved Si Nanyu’s attack and went straight for the kill. Si Nanyu released a Light Wave to block it, but it was in vain.

“That’s what I call righteous energy.”

Si Nanyu cursed, “I’ll blow you to kingdom come,” and, grabbing the gunpowder from his clothes, lit it and threw it.

Qiandu Xiang dodged in a hurry, and the gunpowder exploded behind him noisily.

Si Nanyu murmured, “Aren’t you proud of your palm techniques? Let’s see whether your martial arts or the gunpowder is more powerful.”

“Screw you! Put down the gunpowder, and I’ll reduce you to dust.” Qiandu Xiang had no choice but to dodge.

Si Nanyu’s entire focus was on Qiandu Xiang, but someone from behind had targeted him. This person was the pressured Gu Feng, who had nearly been blown apart by Si Nanyu’s earlier gunpowder. With a sidestep, he sent his sword flying out, striking Si Nanyu’s shoulder.

The lit explosive Si Nanyu had yet to throw fell as he winced in pain. Unable to dodge, he was blown away.

Blood spurted out of his mouth instantly.

Ouyang Yue screamed, “No,” and wanted to fly over to save her Senior Brother.

But Nangong Yao, knowing the situation was becoming increasingly dire, shouted, “Let’s go!”

Qiandu Xiang rushed over, but Gu Feng flew in, only to see the bloodied Si Nanyu collapsed on the ground, his hands and feet nowhere to be seen.

Qiandu Xiang cursed furiously, “Damn it, why did you kill him? Who will tell me about the Key Box?”

“I worried he might blow you up. I didn’t mean to kill him. It was the gunpowder that…”

Furious, Qiandu Xiang kicked Gu Feng away with a single foot.

Ye Chen made his move, killing his way out from behind Baili He. The man with the bronze hammer had never anticipated someone would attack from behind. Ye Chen shook him off with a single palm strike, and immediately had Li Mo set off the gunpowder and release smoke to open a gap through Baili He’s side.

At that moment, Shao Hengjiang, witnessing Si Nanyu being killed by the explosion, wondered whether he should go out and help them break free. As he hesitated, Ye Chen killed his way out. He let loose the wriggly Green Dragons, but that didn’t seem enough. He added a few more fires, as well as fireworks and firecrackers.

The thick smoke arose, the sulfur smell somewhat choking. Qiandu Xiang saw the flying explosives everywhere, presumably the handiwork of that individual, and had no choice but to find cover at the back for now.

Ouyang Yue had already been crying her heart out.

But Nangong Yao remained extremely calm. He had to be calm. Qiandu Xiang’s martial arts were simply too formidable, and their numbers were growing. With Si Nanyu dead, if they didn’t leave now, once Qiandu Xiang joined the fight, they would be even more overwhelmed.

Nangong Yao said to Jiu Hu, “Hurry, take your junior sister and evacuate first. We’ll cover the rear. We can’t wait any longer.”

Jiu Hu nodded.

Nangong Yao glanced at Ye Chen. He didn’t know who the masked man was, but his martial arts were incredibly high, and his intervention was timely, creating an opening. He must be one of Si Nanyu’s men. Nangong Yao said urgently, “Young man, your martial arts are good. Help us hold the rear.”

“No problem.” Ye Chen was at the forefront of the battle and wanted to put on a good show. With such an opportunity, since those guys were all confused, he liked to throw them for a loop at times like this.

The girl was crying very sadly. He saw that and figured the boy must be undoubtedly dead. Otherwise, why would she be crying so heartbreakingly? If someone was blown into the air by an explosion, how could they survive?

“That bastard, setting fires here, and even setting off dragons.” Qiandu Xiang couldn’t see clearly ahead. At any moment, explosive powder could come flying. The explosion that turned Si Nanyu into a lump of flesh had startled him, and he didn’t dare to jump out recklessly. Besides Ye Chen, there were also people from the Iron Ten Thousand Bandits setting off explosives.

Wan Liyun saw the girl being taken away to one side and was stunned. He asked, “Big brother, Si Nanyu is dead. Shouldn’t we go and take that girl captive?”

“If we could capture that girl, we would be able to find the key box. Qiandu Xiang would have succeeded long ago. There’s no need to wait until now. Throw the rest of the explosives.”

Ye Chen didn’t know if it was for revenge for the girl or because of what Nangong Yan had said, but he had never enjoyed himself so much. People inside didn’t know where to go, while he continuously threw sword shadows and saber lights inside, making them cry for help.

“Are you having fun now?” Black Demonic Spirit asked.

Ye Chen replied, “Quite fun.”

“Then are you sure you can shake off Qiandu Xiang?” Black Demonic Spirit, fearing being captured, shouted, “I advise you to leave quickly. Do you realize everyone behind you has already left?”

Only then did Ye Chen realize that those people had all run away, leaving just him and Li Mo behind.

“I guarantee you, if you get caught in a bit, you’ll definitely be paraded through the streets,” Black Demonic Spirit said angrily.

“Where did they go? How could they leave without me? That’s really inconsiderate,” Ye Chen pondered whether he could use this opportunity to blend in.

“You seem rather excited about this, playing quite happily,” said Black Demonic Spirit.

Qiandu Xiang’s cursing was getting closer and closer, and the black smoke could dissipate at any moment. Ye Chen shouted, “Li Mo, let’s get going!”

Li Mo hurriedly followed behind him.

The two of them quickly fled.

Qiandu Xiang cursed loudly while still yelling, “Who set this up? Wasn’t it supposed to be foolproof?”

Hai Jingtian responded, “We had them surrounded, but then several highly skilled martial artists broke through our encirclement, and they started throwing black smoke and explosives. It turned into chaos.”

Qiandu Xiang looked at a corpse, unwilling to believe that only Si Nanyu knew the whereabouts of the key.

Hai Jingtian said, “I’ll lead a team to pursue them now.”

Qiandu Xiang shook his head. At this point, it was still unclear who knew about the key box. Even if they caught Ouyang Yue, what then? Pressuring her had been of no use; what else could they do?

“No, let them go. They can’t escape the palm of my hand,” said Qiandu Xiang.

“Let them go?” Gu Feng was somewhat puzzled.

Qiandu Xiang then asked, “Hai Jingtian, how is the preparation for the ships I had you arrange?”

“Don’t worry, everything has been prepared,” Hai Jingtian answered.

“Good,” Qiandu Xiang said with satisfaction.

Ye Chen had thought he could find the group, but they had long since disappeared without a trace.

Li Mo asked, “Are we still going to look for them?”

“No, let’s head to the Wanderer,” Ye Chen decided.

Black Demonic Spirit was startled and said, “So, we’re really heading to the Wanderer. Aren’t you afraid of being captured?”

With limited information at hand, how could Ye Chen compare to those from Iron Ten Thousand Bandits? It was smarter to follow them, especially since the whereabouts of the Immortal Medicine Sect were still unknown. He said, “As long as we follow Shao Hengjiang, we’ll be able to find the Sacred Spirit Stone.”

“That’s right, the Iron Ten Thousand Bandits have their people infiltrated into the Sacred Spirit Sect as well,” Ye Chen confirmed.

Worried that their ship might leave at any moment, Ye Chen said, “Let’s talk on the ship.”

There was no better option.

“I thought you’d use this chance to blend in. You had your fun killing, but now nobody knows where they went,” Black Demonic Spirit said coldly.
