Chapter 596 - 596 582 Ye Chen is Ambushed

Chapter 596: Chapter 582: Ye Chen is Ambushed Chapter 596: Chapter 582: Ye Chen is Ambushed Ye Chen glanced around, gathered a surge of energy, and attacked in all directions, trying to create confusion and then seize the opportunity to escape.

Luo Hai urgently shouted, “Damn, the brat wants to run. We must not let this brat escape!”

Ye Chen unleashed several streaks of lightning. The path behind him was blocked, so he wanted to use his excellent lightness skills to leap over the roof. However, the sky was filled with fireballs, suffocating him.

He had been fighting with the men in black for a while and was nearly out of breath, his energy severely depleted.

One fireball landed on his right, and with a bang, blasted him off the roof and back into the courtyard.

A large group of men in black rushed over.

Ye Chen quickly got up and began to fight again, seemingly unwilling to admit defeat.

Luo Hai commanded, “Ba Qi, tie him up.”

By then, Ye Chen’s energy was visibly depleting. Even though Ba Qi was not particularly strong individually, they synergized as a team, combining their energies into a formidable whole, making them not so easy to tackle.

Ye Chen’s chances of breaking through were slim, and he had also sustained some injuries.

Ba Qi unleashed lightning and tied up Ye Chen, forcing him to retreat continuously.

Suddenly, a beam of light shot towards him from the right. Ye Chen slashed his lightning down and with a bang, a package exploded into a cloud of white smoke that enveloped Ye Chen.

Ye Chen didn’t know what it was, but soon he felt dizzy and then couldn’t see clearly, something was wrong. The sedative numbing his limbs had taken effect.

Luo Hai sneered, “Aren’t your martial arts impressive? Let’s see how far they can get you.”

Ye Chen was disoriented.

“Catch him, I want to take him back to the Alliance Leader.” The thought of the accomplishment thrilled him. This individual was a top target. Capturing him would render the New City Sect leaderless.

Yuan Menhai had always dreamed of capturing this person, and now he could rest assured.

The injured Wan Guangde took Ding Shi with him, they created an opportunity for the Wan Guangcai and others to escape. But they couldn’t hold on for long, and were soon killed off.

Luo Hai rushed over, saw Wan Guangde’s corpse, and asked, “Where is Wan Guangcai?”

“Wan Guangde held us back, and they used the secret tunnel in front to escape the Wan Residence,” replied Lin Wei.

“Damn it.”

“Did you catch that brat?”

Luo Hai nodded, saying, “Of course, how could the brat escape from my hands? I will never allow it.”

Lin Wei said, “Congratulations, Luo Hai, you’ve completed a great task.”

Luo Hai looked at him and said, “Don’t worry, I’ll tell the Alliance Leader. I won’t forget your contribution.”

“That’s not necessary, the most important thing is to share your worries.” Lin Wei’s plan had succeeded. He would gain control of Wanshou City. Nothing could be more important than that.

Luo Hai chuckled and said, “In that case, can you manage Wanshou City now?”

“Rest assured, I’ll handle it immediately. I will let the Wastelands know that Wan Guangde conspired with the New City Sect, and this is the end result. I will swiftly lead the Wan Family in pledging loyalty to the Third Demon.”

“That’s good.”

Night fell with a light rain in a dense forest.

Wan Guangcai, with Wan Danrong, Feng Niang, and several others, escaped from the Wan Residence. They used their knowledge of Wanshou City and their connections to exit the city. Now they were in a forest outside Wanshou City.

Wan Danrong cried out, “Father!” Her mind was consumed with thoughts of Ye Chen.

Before long, someone reported that her father and Ding Shi were both dead. She was on the verge of collapse.

Someone clamored, “Damn it, how could the Sect Leader of the New City Sect be in our Wan Residence without us knowing? How did the people from the Third Demon find out?”

Ding Yunjie was told that his father Ding Shi was dead. The words of the man behind him struck him, yes, why was the Third Demon so certain that the Sect Leader of the New City Sect was in the Wan Residence and even have his portrait? No, that portrait was created by Wang Dong.

He suddenly turned around, jumped up, grabbed Wang Dong, and shouted, “Did you leak the Drunkard’s secret?” He grabbed his collar.

Wang Dong, terrified, said, “I only told Lin Yongwen. Lin Yongwen asked me to pay off my gambling debts. If I didn’t, he would cut off my hand. I thought… they were only after the Drunkard.”

Wan Danrong jumped up and shouted, “Did you two know about Ye Chen’s identity?”

Ding Yunjie regretted it, his father was dead because of him. With embarrassment, he replied, “Once when Madam went to see Ye Chen, I accidentally ran into them and overheard their conversation. That’s how I found out Ye Chen was the New City Sect Leader. Then I told Wang Dong.” He hung his head in shame.

Wan Danrong cried and shouted, “You’ve ruined the Wan Family! It must be the Lin Family! The Lin Family has always wanted to become the owner of Wanshou City. With such a good opportunity, they are sure to seize it. It must be them! I’m sure the masked man was that Smiling Tiger, Lin Wei. He has wanted to harm the Wan Residence for a long time.”

She slapped Ding Yunjie on the face with resentment, and Ding Yunjie was full of remorse. If he could bring his father back by taking more slaps, he was willing. But everything was too late.

Wan Guangcai said, “It’s Lin Wei. He said we didn’t want to join the Third Demon. Only Lin Wei would say something like that. Lin Wei was the one delaying our joining of the Third Demon. He was using a scapegoat.”

The rain was getting heavier, lightning flashed, and thunder roared. Everyone was engulfed in grief.

Wan Danrong said, “I won’t let the Lin family off. As long as I’m alive, I will have my revenge.”

Wan Guangcai said, “Let’s move ahead and get out of this rain.”

Wan Danrong was already sobbing uncontrollably.

Ding Yunjie was also filled with regret. He wished he could tear Wang Dong apart, but it was too late for that now.

“I told you that a leopard cannot change its spots. I warned you not to bring such a person into the Wan Residence. Why didn’t you listen?” Wan Danrong drew her sword and threatened to kill Wang Dong: “You cursed bastard, why did you have to harm our Wan family?”

In his fright, Wang Dong rolled on the ground and scrambled to escape.

With a powerful swing of her sword, Feng Niang sent Wang Dong over the cliff. At that moment, she was furious. Ye Chen had been captured, thanks to that man. She was even tempted to kill Ding Yunjie with one sword strike, if it weren’t for the fact that his father had just died.

Ding Yunjie was kneeling on the ground, speechless, filled with endless regret.

Wan Guangcai glanced at Feng Niang and said: “Sister-in-law, we can’t stay here. We need to find a place quickly. I don’t know if they’ll come after us, we need to be prepared just in case.”

Feng Niang nodded her head, and leading the still sobbing Wan Danrong, she and a group of others ventured deeper into the dense forest.

Feng Niang didn’t know whether Ye Chen had managed to escape or not, so she said: “Second Manor Master, could you help me find out about the condition of the Sect Leader of the New City Sect?”

Wan Guangcai assured her: “Don’t worry, I’ll try my best to find out.”

Night was gradually falling, at the Lin Residence.

Luo Hai was quite pleased as he watched the continuous rain; it showed no signs of stopping anytime soon.

One of Lin Wei’s men returned and reported: “They have likely already escaped the city.”

Luo Hai cursed: “Damn it! They actually managed to escape.”

The subordinate replied: “The Wan Family, even in Wanshou City, still has some influence. We sealed off the city gates, but they probably found another way to escape.”

Luo Hai nodded slightly and said: “Lin Wei, thank goodness I listened to you. I never expected Wan Guangde to treat me like a child and play me like this.”

“I told you, there’s no way I could be wrong. You didn’t believe me at first.”

“I didn’t disbelieve you.”

Lin Wei asked again: “What about the people who escaped? How shall we deal with them?”

“After I send that brat back to Sky Domain City, I’ll return to take care of them. With Wan Guangde dead, what trouble could Wan Guangcai cause?” Luo Hai turned around and said: “The matter of Wanshou City is now your responsibility.”

“Don’t worry, I can handle it.” By this time, Lin Wei was already excited beyond words.

“Then, the affairs of Wanshou City are up to you.”

“Alright.”

Dawn was gradually breaking.

The rain had lessened considerably. At this moment, a man ran in, he was the one Wan Guangcai had sent to gather information.

Feng Niang had been restless and sleepless the whole night, worried about Ye Chen. If anything happened to him, it would be a devastating blow to the New City Sect. The Wastelands could easily fall into the hands of the Third Demon.

It was only after crying till midnight that Wan Danrong finally calmed down a little. She eventually fell asleep, likely from sheer exhaustion.

Wan Guangcai asked: “What’s the situation in the city?”

“The Wan Residence has been destroyed. Wanshou City is essentially under the control of Lin Wei. It appears that the Second Manor Master was right. All of this is the work of a coalition between Lin Wei and the followers of the Third Demon. Without Lin Wei’s help, Luo Hai wouldn’t have been able to easily bring a group of people into Wanshou City.”

“What about my elder brother?” He still refused to accept the reality.

The subordinate shook his head.

Wan Guangcai punched the wall hard.

The subordinate continued: “Besides those who managed to escape, almost everyone was killed. They didn’t even spare our maid from the Wan Residence. They were incredibly cruel, nothing more than ruthless murderers.”

“They aim to annihilate our Wan family.” Wan Guangcai stated vehemently.

“I guess we can’t go back. I believe the people in the city will soon listen to Lin Wei.”

Just as Feng Niang came over, she overheard the news of Wan Guangde’s death. Tears streamed down her face, and she asked: “What about Ye Chen?”

The subordinate replied: “Ye Chen didn’t escape, he was captured but he is still alive. I heard that Luo Hai plans to send him back to Sky Domain City, then execute him publicly to intimidate the Wastelands.”

Rong’er, who had just woken up, heard the news and cried out: “No, absolutely not.”

The subordinate continued: “However, they haven’t left yet. Considering the rain that doesn’t seem to stop, they should be delayed.”

Feng Niang declared: “I must save Ye Chen.”

Wan Guangcai looked at her.

The man warned: “Luo Hai has around three hundred men with him, it’s not going to be easy.”

“Even so, I must save him.” Feng Niang insisted.

Wan Danrong also spoke up: “Yes, I want to save him too.”

“But we only have so many people, how can we save him!” the subordinate exclaimed.
