Chapter 575 - 575 561 Dangerous Encounter with Ye Chen
Chapter 575: Chapter 561: Dangerous Encounter with Ye Chen Chapter 575: Chapter 561: Dangerous Encounter with Ye Chen This place was somewhat distant from the city, but it’s hard to say if a fight would alarm the townsfolk. Ye Chen didn’t want to alert the Wan Residence, so a swift battle would be preferable.
He had accurately pinpointed how many people were approaching from this direction.
Gui Lang covered his face.
Leading the newlywed lady’s horse car towards Wanshou City was Zhong Yao, one of Wan Guangde’s trusted assistants. Tasked with protecting the new lady, he was bringing along more than twenty people, gradually drawing close to Wanshou City.
The new lady inside the horse car yelled, “How much longer?”
“Not too much longer, around six hours, and we will be back in Wanshou City.” Zhong Yao replied.
Just a turn around the small hill ahead, and they would be able to see Wanshou City.
Suddenly, a loud yell erupted, and dozens of concealed weapons flew out from the forest.
Zhong Yao promptly jumped off the horse car as the rainlike flurry of hidden weapons and the clash of swords echoed around them.
About forty attacks had been launched, with several disciples being hit by the concealed weapons.
Zhong Yao yelled, “No good, we’ve fallen into an ambush!” Having just heard about Rong’er’s ambush in Wanshou City, he quickly retreated to the horse car, guessing that it was likely the people from No. One Heroes targeting the new lady.
The new lady leaped out of the horse car. It was Feng Niang, the new lady of the prince’s residence.
Suddenly, dozens of black-clad men, their faces covered, leaped out from the forest on both sides of the road.
Seeing this, Zhong Yao was taken aback and yelled, “You are from No. One Heroes! I knew you thieves are up to no good!” He formed a protective circle.
Gui Lang smirked coldly, glanced at Er Gui, and said, “Capture the new lady.”
“Got it.” Er Gui nodded, adding, “The new lady is quite beautiful… What a win for that old bastard Wan Guangde.” He seemed nearly drooling.
Feng Niang’s demeanor and dress were not the same as before when she was in Feng Niang Inn. She was less coquettish yet still elegant, making her even more tantalizing.
Gui Lang charged towards Zhong Yao, seeking to tear a hole in their defense.
Zhong Yao shouted in command, intending to protect the new lady.
Gui Lang had the plan ready, outnumbering and outskilling Zhong Yao’s group. He quickly led a group and tore open a throbbing gap in their defense.
Er Gui immediately rushed in with his men, attempting to seize the new lady. Yet he didn’t expect that Feng Niang was not an ordinary woman. She knew martial arts and was quite skilled, which took him by surprise as they counterattacked.
Gui Lang, still slightly baffled, asked, “What just happened?”
“The damn woman knows martial arts. But don’t worry, I can handle her.” As one of the Four Great Demons in the past, with numerous subordinates, if he couldn’t even capture a woman, it would be indeed embarrassing. He wouldn’t be able to claim to be a leader. He said assertively, “Rest assured, she’s just a woman.”
Feng Niang sneered, “Come again, and I’ll behead you.”
Er Gui, now more cautious, led a large number of people to press in, muttering, “Damn woman, I don’t believe I can’t deal with you.”
Booming sounds of sword and blade clashes filled the air, flying around chaotically.
Zhong Yao tried to create a path for his men to bring the lady back to the city, but Gui Lang was on high alert. His many black-clad men couldn’t break through and were quickly pushed back.
He quickly ordered his men, “Send a distress signal.”
The people in Wanshou City should see the signal from here.
Gui Lang snarled, “Stop hesitating! Deal with these people first!”
They had more people now and eliminating these before them wouldn’t be that hard. In any case, they couldn’t let their opponent escape back to the city.
Boom, boom, boom, the shadows of swords everywhere, while the horse car was already in a sorry state.
Gui Lang aimed for a swift victory.
Zhong Yao was trying to protect the new lady, waiting for rescue from the city. He didn’t have any better ideas, the increasingly injured disciples were getting out of breath, becoming harder and harder to fight.
In no time, they were encircled by the men in black.
Gui Lang glanced at Er Gui, repeating with the same words: “Take them down first, then capture that coquettish woman.”
Er Gui almost had Feng Niang, if it weren’t for her martial arts prowess, he would have captured her by now. A few hidden weapons forced them to retreat.
Zhong Yao was making his last stand.
Ye Chen was disappointed. Even if he didn’t want to leave, he had to. He could only leave this place and look for a better place to continue freeloading, drinking to pass the time while still feeling a little miffed.
Sounds of swords and painful screams were heard from the front.
Ye Chen looked around and hurried towards the sound. He saw a group of black-clad men encircling a group of white-clad people. The group of men in black was wearing the same black clothing as that night, their faces all concealed.
He mumbled to himself, could it be those damn No. One Heroes again?
At a closer look, this group of men in black seemed to be trying to kidnap the beauty in pink clothing.
The men in white were dedicated to her protection.
But suddenly, wait, the woman looked so much like Feng Niang. She never used to dress so elegantly and gorgeously before, it took him a moment to adjust. Right, it is Feng Niang. He recognized her, despite her beginner martial arts skills, it was definitely her.
He needed to act quickly. Feng Niang was in danger. He tossed his grilled fish and ran toward them, aiming to open a breach in their circle. Otherwise, escape would be impossible.
Leaping forward, faster than a lightning, he utilized his internal strength like a fierce tiger. While the attention of the men in black was on the front, several green dragons charged fiercely like torrents.
Explosions followed explosions, boom, boom, boom…
Sand and stone were flying around everywhere. The men at the back had no idea what was happening, some mistook it for a tornado. Some were swept into the river, others up onto the tree branches, all of them wailing loudly.
Gui Lang had no clue what had happened, reinforcements were certainly not arriving that fast.
Zhong Yao was also clueless about what had happened.
At this moment, an opening was torn, Ye Chen shouted, “Feng Niang, what are you standing there for? Hurry up and break out, or do you want to be surrounded again?”
Feng Niang was somewhat confused. How could this monkey be here? Wasn’t he supposed to be in the Dark Zone?
Ye Chen unleashed another Dragon Palm, driving back those trying to surround them again.
Zhong Yao was still somewhat in shock, unsure whether the newcomer was a friend or foe.
The encirclement had been breached.
Coming to her senses, Feng Niang cried, “Zhong Yao, let’s go.” With the help of Ye Chen and about ten others in white, they broke through the encirclement.
Gui Lang finally understood what happened.
Ye Chen stayed behind to cover their retreat.
He was stopped by Gui Lang, who exclaimed, “Why is it you?” Although his hair was long, it was daytime, and he recognized Ye Chen’s martial arts skills. This was the guy who captured him, used him to get people from the realm of Immortal Demon into Sky Domain City. How could he forget him? Without this guy, he wouldn’t be in such a predicament today.
Ye Chen was also puzzled. He asked back, “Who are you? Do you know me?” Gui Lang had his face covered, of course he couldn’t recognize him.
“Even if you are reduced to ashes, I would still recognize you,” Gui Lang grasped his long sword, fearful that Feng Niang would escape. He shouted, “We must not let that damn woman get away.”
Leaping into the air, he released a barrage of killing moves like a storm.
This time, it was Gui Lang who came. He even brought Er Gui. His underlings were far more formidable than Er Gui’s, and he himself had some skills. Though he couldn’t defeat Ye Chen, when teamed up with other powerful experts around him, it wasn’t easy for Ye Chen to deal with him easily. After all, he was one of Gua Zhengnie’s most relied upon assistants, and he has some extraordinary aspects.
Ye Chen hurriedly engaged him in battle.
With the release of martial arts, Ye Chen quickly identified him, “You are that Gui Lang, right?”
“Damn it! If not for you, I wouldn’t be in such a terrible situation today,” Gui Lang retorted.
Ye Chen was puzzled for a moment. He had heard that Gui Lang had gone to join Yang Jing. It seemed this was true.
While Gui Lang’s martial arts skills might not be a match for Ye Chen, the dozen or so assistants that Gui Lang brought with him gave Ye Chen some trouble.
Seizing the opportunity, Er Gui quickly led more than thirty men. While Ye Chen was held back, they broke free and continued to hunt down Zhong Yao to capture Feng Niang.
Although Zhong Yao had burst through the encirclement with Feng Niang and was trying to escape in the direction of Wanshou City while sending out a distress signal, it would still take time for reinforcements from Wan Residence to arrive. It certainly would not be very fast. At this time, Er Gui and his men were closing on them again, soon to engage with them.
Zhong Yao knew that it would be impossible to escape these men dressed in black. Thinking that their main target was Feng Niang, he shouted, “Feng Niang, you should go back. We will hold them.”
Feng Niang drove the horse car herself, while the coachman also jumped down to help Zhong Yao.
Ye Chen was unable to quickly determine a winner against Gui Lang and his helpers.
The situation suddenly became urgent again.
Even if Zhong Yao and his men stayed behind to hold back Er Gui and his men, it is unlikely that they could succeed. There were just too many men in black, and they were prepared for this. Ye Chen had to go and assist in order to not let the men in black capture Feng Niang. If she were captured, it would be difficult to rescue her later. Right now, they were not yet totally out of control. If they could quickly get rid of these people and move to help, there might still be an opportunity to assist Feng Niang.
Ye Chen thought like this, but determining a winner with these people would probably cause injury. He didn’t have that certainty.
Gui Lang appeared to be out for revenge, bombarding him with various moves.
Ye Chen said, “Shouldn’t we be friends?”
Thinking of Xiao Bai framing him, saying that he conspired with the New City Sect to allow them into the city, he felt suffocated. He roared, “Friends? Let me sever you before saying anything.”
Angry, he struck with his blade, forcing out an energy as bright as lightning, aiming to pulverize Ye Chen to ashes.
