Chapter 212: Chapter 206: Blood Bats
As soon as the signal was given, the people at the city gate saw it and prepared to close the gate.
However, at that mont, Li Mo, leading twenty n, was waiting at the entrance. Once the signal appeared from Piaoxiang Tavern and the gatekeepers were preparing to close the gate, Li Mo imdiately led his n to charge forward. In less than a mont, they had taken control of the gate. Soon, a group of people showed up—it was Ye Chen and his n.
They rushed over, but the Piaoxiang Tavern had not yet managed to organize their n so quickly.
When Ye Chen arrived, he asked, “Have they prepared the horses?”
“They’re outside,” Li Mo replied.
Ye Chen hurriedly said, “Then let’s get going, we can’t waste ti here.”
“Fine, you guys get out of here, I’ll cover the rear.”
Ye Chen led his n and charged out.
In a grove at the corner, Ye Chen found the other ten n, drew open the curtain of the horse carriage, and found Wei Yiling inside, staring at him with eyes as cold as death.
“Don’t look at
with such affectionate eyes; my heart isn’t that good.”
Ye Chen had soone put Hong Ying into the carriage, then quickly got onto the carriage himself and shouted, “Let’s go.”
They had vanished into the dim night.
One after the other, they mounted their horses and raced off.
They didn’t stop for three hours, leaving Ghost City far behind. After making sure no one had followed, Ye Chen finally slowed down; it was midnight by then.
Ye Chen said, “Okay, no more running. We’ll rest here and continue when it’s light.”
Ye Chen opened the curtain and entered the carriage, untying the two won.
Ling’er was stupefied; he had really captured Hong Ying.
“You scoundrel, always causing trouble,” Ling’er shouted, kicking towards Ye Chen, who swiftly avoided her hit, dodging a few yards away.
Ye Chen said, “Don’t bla , bla your father.”
“My father told you to capture Hong Ying?” Wei Yiling cried out.
“No, your father needed
to deal with Yang Jing, Tong Hegan, and the four evil spirits. He wanted
to lead them to Futu Valley. But I needed so bait.”
“So, you just straight up captured Hong Ying to blackmail them.”
“I’m just trying to survive, I had no choice.”
“You’re shaless.”
“She’s pretty, isn’t she? I think so too. She’s indeed quite appealing. Compared to you, we just don’t know about her figure. I’ve seen yours, but not hers.”
Upon hearing this, Ling’er blushed and yelled, “You’re hopeless!”
“Watch her for , she’s the only guarantee that we can lure Yang Jing over,” Ye Chen’s voice softened a little.
“Can Mo is also listening to you, even allowing you to do this kind of things.”
“That ans I’m doing the right thing,” Ye Chen said.
Ling’er had already jumped out and was striking wildly with her bone claws. Ye Chen quickly dodged to the rear, while the other boys laughed and watched their argunt.
Ye Chen then spoke to Li Mo, “Watch the girl inside the carriage. Anyone who lets my wife escape, I won’t let them off.”
“You jerk,” Ling’er shouted.
“Your father wants to ambush them and cook them all in a pot. We need to lead them to Futu Valley. I feared they wouldn’t follow us, so I had to bring Hong Ying out. It was a necessary evil,” they had already moved a fair distance from the carriage at this point.
“Ambush? Brought out? You have the cheek to say that? You captured her!” imdiately, she rembered the ti when she had almost been captured by Yang Jing.
“Right, we want to lead them to Futu Valley. But in order to ensure this, I had to do this. It was a necessary evil,” Ye Chen continued, “Right now, Tong Hegan, The Four Great Evils, and mbers of the No. One Thieves have all tead up. If we can ambush them in Futu Valley, we’ll be able to save so many of our disciples. Have you considered the sacrifice it would take to eliminate them one by one?”
“Stop your nonsense. You did wrong, capturing a girl, and now you’re justifying it!” She suddenly rembered the incident where she was almost captured by Yang Jing.
“Rember when you were almost captured? We’re just using the sa thod they wanted to use against your father on them. I don’t intend to hurt that girl. I swear to God,” Ye Chen spun around a few tis, but Ling’er didn’t chase after him.
“Stop making a fuss, they’re laughing at us. We’re family now, so stop being jealous,” Ye Chen said.
“Laughing at us?” A few stones ca flying over.
Ye Chen dodged all the stones.
“But I still think she’s pretty, she might even outshine you. You should learn from her,” Ye Chen said.
“You idiot, asking
to learn from her,” Ling’er couldn’t catch up with him.
Ye Chen sat on the sandy ground, looking at the starry sky,
Taking a deep breath.
In the early morning, just as dawn was breaking, Can Mo and his n, fearing they would be pursued, roused their subordinates. They only had a day left to reach Futu Valley, so at this critical ti, they had to speed up their progress and couldn’t afford to linger.
However, they had only been traveling for half an hour when suddenly a dense group of creatures arrived from the south direction, pressing towards them like a dark cloud. So disciples hurried back to report, but they couldn’t see what it was clearly.
After a quick glance, Can Mo imdiately ordered his n to prepare for defense. The dark group of creatures was getting closer and closer. There were thousands of them and they were instantly overwhelming.
They had red eyes, looking like bats, but bigger. They emitted hissing sounds which could be heard from afar.
“Hurry, it should be the Blood Bats.” Can Mo quickly organized his disciples to respond.
Facing this large batch of incoming Blood Bats, which attacked anyone they saw, was extrely terrifying.
They were extrely ferocious, covering the sky and the earth. Once a group descended, they could simply snatch people away.
…
Tong Hegan’s subordinate ran back, reporting, “Good, our Blood Bats have entangled them.”
Hearing this, Yang Jing imdiately beca excited and exclaid, “This is great! Now that they’re distracted, where are Da Gui and the others?”
“They’re almost there.”
Ci Ye said, “As long as these Blood Bats can hold them off, we can quickly surround them.”
“Right, hurry, we can’t let these people escape.” Yang Jing shouted.
Tong Hegan laughed, “They can’t escape my Blood Bats easily.”
It was quite apparent that he was quite confident.
Can Mo and his n were already engaged in a fierce battle against the Blood Bats. Overwheld by the sea of bats, they found it hard to break free. The more hurried they beca, the more helpless they felt. He also knew that if they couldn’t escape the Blood Bats soon, the people following them would catch up, and the plan for Futu Valley would fail utterly. Even if Ye Chen and the others really captured Hong Ying, the plan would hardly succeed. Breaking free from the Blood Bats was a top priority.
Can Mo shouted, “Don’t waste ti wrestling with the Blood Bats here. Let’s get out!” So people were assigned to cover the rear, several of them had their arms bitten, and their faces were full of injuries. Every ti they fought off the bats and thought they were gone, they quickly regrouped and launched another wave of attacks, persistently harassing them, making the situation extrely difficult to handle.
Ye Chen led the fifty n, got up early before dawn, ate sothing simple, and hurried on. Continuous loud noises could be heard from the front, but they didn’t know what had happened. As they crossed over a hill, they suddenly saw a group that was as dark as a cloud, entangling a crowd of people.
Li Mo, after seeing this, said, “It’s not good, it’s Can Mo and his gang. They seed to be held up by sothing.”
Ye Chen also saw it. Although he couldn’t see clearly, he ordered, “Li Mo, you take the horse car and go ahead. I’ll go help.”
“Maybe I should go with you.” Li Mo suggested.
“No need, keep an eye on Hong Ying, and that girl in there. Don’t let Hong Ying escape.” Ye Chen quickly took three dozen n and headed over there.
“What in the world is that?” Ye Chen asked.
A disciple replied, “It looks like bats.”
At this mont, a disciple ntioned, “I’ve heard that Tong Hegan has a group of Blood Bats, very vicious, they bite people and suck human blood, they’re hard to deal with. However, it seems they haven’t been fully tad.”
“It looks like it’s those creatures.” Ye Chen asked again, “But is there any way to deal with it?” He guessed that those People like Yang Jing would want to use these Blood Bats to hold Can Mo and his n, so they could catch up to them.
They all shook their heads, and soone murmured, “We’ve never studied it.”
Ye Chen said, “I guess they want the Blood Bats to hold Can Mo. They wouldn’t take long to catch up.”
“I have a poison, I don’t know if it can be used.” A disciple took out a white bottle from his arms.
“Hehe, you think they’ll eat poison?”
The people laughed.
“You’ve even prepared poison. You are tough. Who are you going to poison?”
The subordinate replied, “Didn’t you say to prepare for all possibilities? I thought it might be useful.”
“Alright, you’re formidable. When the ti cos, let’s feed this poison directly to that damned Yang Jing. Let’s poison him first, and leave Hong Ying to .”
They all laughed again.
“It’s too many to handle.” one disciple stated.
The whole sky was filled with the bats, flying chaotically. Can Mo and his n really wanted to get rid of them, but they couldn’t. These creatures seed to be endless. They drove them away, but in less than half an hour, they would co back, like stubborn plaster, always sticking on. Although the killing power was not great, the repeated attacks were uncomfortable. They were like mosquitoes, buzzing around you, and you couldn’t ignore them.
Ye Chen turned around and ordered, “Give
the poison.”
His subordinate quickly handed him the white bottle. He opened it, looked inside and asked, “What kind of poison is this?”
The disciple quickly replied, “It seems it’s not a poison, but a sedative drug.”
“Hehe, you carry a sedative with you, planning to dope so girl?”
“No, I won’t do such a thing.”
“Don’t explain, you’re probably planning to take advantage of so girl when she’s off guard.”
