Chapter 290: Clashing with Mercenaries
"Woo..."
A long, piercing sound roared across the sky, shocking and terrifying.
It was countless artillery shells pouring down...
"Boom boom boom..."
Suddenly, a series of earth-shattering explosions erupted, with shells falling and engulfing the convoy that had just entered the area.
The area immediately exploded, with countless fragments raining down like a storm, blazing fire shooting up, illuminating the dawn as bright as daylight.
The hundred-meter-long area endured a baptism of artillery fire, instantly turning into a sea of fire, with the explosions continuing, surging waves of heat rising.
"Boom boom boom..."
Soon, the second wave of blanket bombing arrived.
Seven helicopters hovered in the sky, releasing a large number of white objects.
These were terrifying white phosphorus bombs, which would ignite upon contact with the human body, and even the physique of an External Body Training Strong Person might not withstand them.
Especially under such a barrage of white phosphorus bombs, there was no escape route.
The fire that had somewhat subsided suddenly flared up again, turning into an even more terrifying sea of fire.
The scene before them was apocalyptic, like a terrifying volcanic eruption.
"Dada dada..."
The seven helicopters then conducted a sweeping machine gun fire across the area, leaving no part untouched.
"Clang clang, clang clang..."
A series of earsplitting, intense metal collisions rang out, the ground trembling violently, as if an earthquake had occurred.
...
Witnessing these terrifying scenes, even the strong persons from the Japan Martial Arts Realm were dumbfounded, doubting themselves.
Most martial artists had previously scoffed at modern weapons, but now, seeing these horrifying scenes, they were incredulous.
Too terrifying!
The combat power of these mercenaries was off the charts, and this level of bombardment shouldn’t be withstood by any Martial Arts Strong Person.
"The third wave of attack begins!"
Blood Wolf ordered.
Immediately, assassins hidden in the shadows and ninjas from three major ninja clans moved out, while ten terrifying snipers covered all directions from the shadows, leaving no survivors.
At this moment, the explosions on the highway had ceased, the raging fires slowly diminished, and even the smoke blocking out the sky slowly cleared.
For assassins and ninjas, it was now the best time for a harvest.
"You all be ready! It might be our turn to strike!"
Blood Wolf said proudly to a group of Martial Arts Strong Persons.
The Martial Arts Strong Persons no longer harbored the initial disdain, now trusting Blood Wolf and his team.
"Swish swish swish!"
Over a hundred assassins and ninjas quickly approached, cautiously making their way through the fire, where the scene gradually came into focus.
They believed that the previous two waves of attack should have caused devastating damage, if not killing Ye Xiaoyao, then definitely severely injuring him!
Now, they only needed to harvest!
Soon, the three cars of the convoy appeared before them.
Immediately, each face showed disbelief, as if witnessing the most terrifying scene in the world.
The three cars were intact, enveloped by a virtual silhouette of a black Divine Cauldron, resembling the Xuanwu Divine Beast.
"This..."
The assassins and ninjas were terrified!
Cold sweat dripped from their foreheads, their entire bodies shivering with cold.
"You guys are not bad! Surprised me!"
Suddenly, a voice echoed in the ears of over a hundred people.
Just as they were in a daze, a shadow began flickering through the fire.
"Psh!"
...
Wherever the shadow passed, plumes of blood mist rose.
The assassins and ninjas barely had time to react, all falling in the fire.
...
On the mountaintop, Blood Wolf and his team’s expressions slowly changed, especially Blood Wolf, who wondered, "Hm? Why is there no movement at all? Snipers, report what you see."
A sniper on the hillside silently observed, having the best vantage point to encompass everything.
"Puh!"
Suddenly, a cold light flashed, accompanied by a peculiar penetrating sound, and his head exploded.
The sniper hidden in the bushes heard a sound like a knife piercing a watermelon, and he fell too.
"Puh!"
The third one.
"Puh!"
The fourth.
...
In the blink of an eye, nine snipers fell.
The sniper hidden closest to the fire scene sensed something amiss, began observing other directions, only to see the ninth sniper turn into a headless corpse, causing his gut to twist.
In the next second, a shadow of death enveloped him.
An overwhelming pressure surged from his chest, crashing into his brain as if weighed down by a massive stone, leaving his mind blank, and suffocating despair flooded in...
"Where are the snipers?"
Blood Wolf suddenly realized he had lost contact not only with the ninja assassins but also with the snipers.
A bad omen arose in his heart, and Blood Wolf frowned.
"Have you guys..."
Blood Wolf noticed Baofeng God and Leopard King shared similar expressions.
"Vroom vroom..."
Suddenly, the sound of engines roared from below.
The convoy broke through the sea of fire, revealing its presence.
"Ah?"
When everyone saw the intact convoy, their expressions were no less than seeing a divine spirit descend on earth.
They considered many possibilities!
The possibility that Ye Xiaoyao wouldn’t die was long anticipated, but they never imagined the convoy would remain intact.
"How is this possible? Even an External Body Training Grandmaster would be injured, yet the cars are unharmed?" Blood Wolf’s eyes nearly popped out.
They were shocked, and the person sitting in the car was even more astounded.
This night was undoubtedly the most thrilling night they had ever experienced—they witnessed too much.
Just now, amidst an all-out artillery barrage, they couldn’t comprehend how Ye Qingtian effortlessly withstood it, protecting all three cars.
...
"Retreat! Retreat! We’re not his match!"
Blood Wolf realized their best chance was gone, and immediately ordered a retreat.
"Why run?"
Suddenly, a rolling thunderous voice reached everyone’s ears.
At the end of everyone’s line of sight appeared a person, it was Ye Xiaoyao, slowly walking towards them.
"Don’t let him get close! Kill him!"
Blood Wolf immediately ordered.
He knew once a martial artist got close, it meant trouble.
"Dada dada..."
Instantly, hundreds of mercenaries acted.
Countless bullets poured densely, orange flames spraying out like deadly whips, weaving into a dense web of firepower, engulfing Ye Qingtian.
But the next second, Blood Wolf and the others were astounded.
Ye Qingtian’s speed was faster than bullets, a slight tilt of his head, and the bullets missed.
"Snap!"
Even more terrifying, bullets striking his body couldn’t penetrate.
Even when bullets touched his body, Ye Qingtian wouldn’t flinch in the slightest, not even enough to tickle.
Simply too monstrous! Too defiant!
Ye Xiaoyao showed no fear of bullets!
