Zhang San, please behave yourself!

Chapter 405: 380

Although Zhang San did not know why there had just been a thunderbolt in the west, such a loud thunderclap could not have been produced without giving oneself enough time to unleash powerful Thunder Method; even he himself could not do it.

This was not to say that the person who had created the thunderclap was exceedingly powerful, rather that the other party had carefully planned and prepared to release the Thunder Method, otherwise the sound would not have been so loud, echoing through the entire Daxing City.

Zhang San did not know what exactly had happened in the west, but he had a feeling it might be related to the Floating Corpse Case.

Therefore, Zhang San desperately tried to flee the area, rushing toward the west.

What Zhang San had never expected was that he had managed to evade the Martial Artists of the Town Demon Office, even leaving Zhang Datui behind, but was stopped by a cold arrow shot from hiding.

At that moment, around a dozen Martial Artists from the Town Demon Office armed with longbows began to shoot arrows at him frantically.

At the same time, some of the Town Demon Office’s Martial Artists suddenly jumped out from the alleys around, surrounding him.

From the Archery Technique of the attackers, Zhang San knew they were from the Baili Family.

Zhang San also knew that some from the Baili Family had joined the Town Martial Office while others had remained in the Town Demon Office, so he had enemies both inside and out.

Those who had stayed with the Town Demon Office from the Baili Family probably urgently needed to do something to prove their value and loyalty to the Town Demon Office.

If they could capture him, whom even the Wen Family had not managed to catch,

their status within the Town Demon Office would be secured.

Regrettably, these people were still too naive.

Did they really think the incident at Shouyang Mountain was just a coincidence?

Zhang San reached toward his waist for the Gluttonous Bag, preparing to draw his bow and set an arrow, only to remember that his Gluttonous Bag and Storage Ring were still being detained at the Town Martial Office.

Zhang San could only perform the Eight Steps Xun Flash, dodging the attacks of the surrounding Martial Artists while snatching a Horizontal Blade to engage in close combat.

But he had to guard against the Martial Styles of the Martial Artists nearing him, while also resisting the cold arrows shot from all around.

These Martial Artists from the Baili Family shooting arrows from a distance were not an easy bunch to deal with.

Each arrow was shot with extreme precision, and being Martial Artists of the Town Demon Office, they coordinated tacitly with other Martial Artists from the same office.

For a time, Zhang San’s Techniques were frequently interrupted, and although with his mastery in Martial Styles, he could quickly take down one of the Town Demon Office’s Martial Artists, the key issue was that he could only incapacitate them, but they could kill him.

Moreover, more and more Martial Artists from the Town Demon Office were coming from the east.

"Since you all are making things so difficult for me, I’m going to have to use my trump card!"

With a loud shout from Zhang San, many Martial Artists around immediately scattered to avoid him.

After all, they had heard of Zhang San’s might, and while everyone wanted to gain merits, no one wished to be decimated.

Having bluffed the crowd with his words, Zhang San took the opportunity to execute Wind Series Techniques and the Earth Fire Forging Method.

In an instant, wind and fire blended, creating a series of fiery whirlwinds that swept around him.

The fiery whirlwind blocked both the Martial Artists’ chance to attack and the arrows from the far-off Baili Family Martial Artists.

Zhang San seized the opportunity to fight his way out, but to his utter astonishment, suddenly countless arrows were shot toward him.

It turned out the Town Demon Office’s Martial Artists realized they could not capture him through close combat, so they completely relied on long-range bow attacks.

Thunder Method!

In an instant, over a dozen thunderbolts struck in the distance, forcing the Baili Family archers to temporarily retreat.

At the same time, a dark figure suddenly charged from not far away, and with two Horizontal Blades in hand, they instantly chopped off the longbows in the hands of several Baili Family archers, then kicked those people away with a powerful blow.

The martial artists from the Town Demon Office, upon witnessing the scene, immediately rushed in to help.

Zhang San took the opportunity to charge in as well, beginning to slash and kill the archers from the Baili Family with gusto.

However, since Baili Tu had not troubled him before, and since these martial artists from the Baili Family were also acting under orders, Zhang San followed the example of his own masked ally and cut their longbows, then took the opportunity to snatch a longbow out of someone’s hand and swiftly took their quivers from behind them as well.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh—

With a bow and arrows in hand, Zhang San executed Ninefold Scrutiny and instantly saw every move of the surrounding martial artists with crystal clarity.

The only one helping him was a tall figure in a mask, and though his face was covered, Zhang San could tell who it was by his height and the dark skin peeking out from his brow.

Besides him, Zhang San shot down every martial artist he saw, one by one.

In a short time, using the Meteor Arrow Technique in combination with Ninefold Scrutiny, Zhang San managed to shoot down all the thirty or so martial artists who had originally been planning to surround him.

After all, these people didn’t really want to fight him to the death.

Zhang San of course had no intention of taking their lives either.

It was just that more martial artists were charging from the east, causing Zhang San, who noticed his arrows running low, to panic.

The Baili Family, realizing that Zhang San’s archery was even better than theirs, quickly retreated and picked up all the dropped arrows from the ground.

"Brother San, run fast!"

Hearing Big Head Wang say this, Zhang San had no choice but to trust that Big Head Wang could handle everything.

As Zhang San retreated, he condensed Qi into arrows and shot several arrows at some of the more powerful martial artists who were rushing toward him.

They never expected that Zhang San, even without arrows left, could still shoot.

Caught off guard, several experts were wounded, which indeed eased the pressure on Big Head Wang, who was covering their escape.

Big Head Wang’s blade technique was one used in the military.

There are mainly three types of infantry blade techniques in the military: the first is the Mo Blade Formation Technique used for offensive formations; the second is the Horizontal Blade Technique for formations that, combined with a shield, can perform both attack and defense; the third is the solo combat Horizontal Blade Technique, since on the battlefield it’s inevitable for formations to break apart and soldiers to be isolated or for both sides to be embroiled in melee combat.

At this moment, Big Head Wang was using the solo combat Horizontal Blade Technique.

This blade technique was recognized by many martial artists from the Town Demon Office who saw it.

"Didn’t expect that brother here used to be from the military... Zhang San sure has a wide network!"

"However, today Zhang San will inevitably be captured by us. If you get caught as well, I’m afraid it might bring trouble to your family. It’d be better for you to run for your life now!"

The martial artists from the Town Demon Office were naturally not kindly advising Big Head Wang to leave.

The truth was that those who had come after them were at the True Core Realm, and unfortunately, several at the level of Qi Flow Transformation and True Core to the Sea had been shot by Zhang San already.

The rest of them were no match for Big Head Wang, so they could only try to bluff the masked Great Han and continue chasing Zhang San.

"Brother, think it through. More and more of us are coming. If we catch you, just by resisting the Town Demon Office, I’m afraid you’re certainly doomed to death."

Hearing these words, Big Head Wang couldn’t help but let out a cold laugh.

"Since death is certain, then I have no need to hold back!"

As Big Head Wang spoke, the Tiger’s Life Spirit Gang gathered on his two Horizontal Blades.

It was a technique passed on to Big Head Wang with the consent of Ximen Jinxing. Big Head Wang had recently mastered it, and today was the perfect opportunity to test it.

"When it comes to life and death, let’s part at life and death!"
