Chapter 349 - 110: Meddling_2
"Hurry up!"
"Mother!"
Chen Jiuniang’s voice was tinged with tears. She reached out her hand and was about to speak when a dark shadow flickered before her eyes. Uncle Zheng had already placed the huge stone down and leapt into the secret passage.
"Let’s go."
"Uncle Zheng..."
Her eyes filled with tears:
"My father and mother, they won’t be in trouble, right?"
"No."
Uncle Zheng’s voice was stiff, yet carried an undeniably firm conviction:
"Miss will definitely be safe."
......
Green Willow Manor.
This place was a manor built by the Chen Family on Immortal Return Mountain.
Immortal Return Mountain had marvels like sunrise glows and seven-colored cloud bridges, a must-visit for sightseeing in Zhaonan Prefecture. Building a manor here was not surprising.
However...
The Chen Family’s manor was not only for leisure, but secretly housed many death warriors, which naturally caught the eye of the Qian Family, who had it surrounded.
3:00 AM.
There was still some time before dawn, the hour when people are in their deepest sleep.
"Whoosh!"
"Whoosh whoosh!"
Amidst the sound of the wind, one figure after another leapt out from the manor, rushing towards the thick forest.
"Hmm?"
Not far away on a hillside, Boss Qiu, who was sleeping in his clothes, suddenly flipped up, his eyes flickering:
"Are these guys courting death?"
"Guarding the manor and relying on the terrain, I can’t easily make a move. Now they’ve come out of their lair, isn’t that walking right into a trap?"
"Boss!" someone approached, drew his sword, and shouted:
"Whatever their reason, since they’re delivering themselves, how can we not take them?"
"Exactly." Boss Qiu grinned, picked up an iron rod beside him, squinted as he looked downward, then lifted the rod and swung it:
"Brothers, follow me. Capture one alive or dead for no less than ten taels of silver, and if it’s a martial artist, starting at a hundred taels!"
"Go!"
"Kill!"
The leaves in the forest shook, as one shadow after another darted out.
Boss Qiu carried a wine pouch, took a heavy swig, then tossed the pouch far away, and charged at the incoming figures with his rod.
"Boom!"
The rod struck the air, creating layer upon layer of ripples visible to the naked eye, with shockwaves rushing towards several figures in the front.
"Great Zhou Celestial Martial Artist!"
"Get out of the way!" the incoming figures’ faces changed drastically, shouting urgently.
But alas,
It was already too late!
The rod in Boss Qiu’s hand was like a long snake, targeting the vital points of others. Anyone struck had their bones shattered and died without exception.
Without exception!
His movements were as fast as lightning, even Three-Blood Martial Artists found it hard to react.
In an instant.
Wherever Boss Qiu’s rod pointed, none could withstand it. Leading his men, he cut a path through the crowd, only halting when he encountered two desperate martial artists.
In the rear.
A shadow appeared out of thin air.
The figure watched the melee, face unchanged, and let out a strange low whistle, as an exotic beast resembling a green-eyed gray wolf walked out behind him.
The exotic beast growled lowly, as if speaking.
"Invisibility Talisman?"
The shadow raised an eyebrow, looking towards the direction the exotic beast indicated, with a smile:
"I thought there was something strange here, for so many people to cover a retreat with a high-tier Spirit Talisman concealing someone’s presence."
"I wonder which member of the Chen Family it is?"
"Heibao."
He gently stroked the beast’s head:
"Go, lead the way ahead, let’s meet who it is."
"Heh heh... no matter your means, you wouldn’t expect, my Heibao has the superpower to see through disguises."
"Woo..." the exotic beast growled lowly, bounding several meters with each leap, pouncing towards a figure attempting to escape amidst the chaos.
Soon after.
"Clink clink clang clang..."
Several figures surrounded a graceful silhouette, launching a fierce attack.
The silhouette wielded a Treasure Sword, dressed in Soft Armor, appearing exhausted, but the Sword Qi remained sharp, deterring close approaches.
Occasionally bursting forth, she forced multiple adversaries back repeatedly, narrowly escaping danger.
Each time.
Out of the darkness flew several Black Shuttles, whirling and piercing through the air like birds, attacking the silhouette.
The swift assault of the Black Shuttles forced her back into the encirclement.
"Get away!"
Engaged in drawn-out combat, the woman roared lowly, the Treasure Sword in her hand unleashing sharp Sword Qi, sweeping across a span of several meters.
The Sword Qi was charged with evil power, causing all vegetation it touched to wither and die.
And those in its path...
Except for two who narrowly escaped, the rest were struck by the Sword Qi, their bodies freezing in place, vitality extinguished.
"Sword Evil!"
Seated on the beast’s back, the shadow’s eyes widened as he shouted hoarsely:
"You’re Chen Jiuniang!"
The technique to refine Sword Evil was a secret discipline among various sects, with strict demands on disciples. The Chen Family had very few practitioners of it.
And among those of the suitable age...
Only Chen Jiuniang!
"Haha!"
The shadow laughed wildly:
"Never expected, the big fish I’ve been waiting for so long is the Chen Family’s cherished daughter. Block her; capturing or killing her will be heavily rewarded!"
While speaking.
His arm swung, pushing the Artifact Manipulation Technique to the limit, sending several Black Shuttles as streaks of light towards ’Chen Jiuniang’.
Simultaneously activating Spirit Talismans.
In a flash.
The ground churned, spikes of earth suddenly shot up; water gathered, forming water snakes; vines grew, encompassing all directions...
Earth Spike Technique, Water Snake Technique, Fire Manipulation Technique were common magics, but wielded by this person, their power was terrifying.
Head-sized fireballs collided with trees, reducing decades-old giants to charred remains in a blink.
Water struck like a martial artist’s whip, shattering gold and stone.
This one person,
launched an unstoppable tidal wave of attacks.
"Five Elements Daoist!"
’Chen Jiuniang’ turned her head, eyes showing fear:
"It’s you!"
"Indeed." Five Elements Daoist slightly raised his brows:
"Who would have thought my name could catch Chen Jiuniang’s attention?"
