Chapter 625: Chapter 611: Rescue Shen Bai and Zhao Kun
Ye Chen continued: “It doesn’t matter how good you look – if it’s not practical, it’s no use. Learning martial arts isn’t just for show. The key is to defeat your opponent. When soone is trying to kill you, good looks won’t help. What is the point of being attractive in battle, unless you’re looking to find a wife?”
Guo Yuyun poured two cups of tea. After finishing the tea, she felt a bit better.
Rong’er kept nodding in agreent.
“Foundations, understand?” Ye Chen seed excited to share his wisdom.
Red Demonic Spirit retorted: “Aren’t you flaunting the martial skills that I taught you?”
Guo Yuyun chuckled and added, “Did you hear that? Quit showing off!”
“Indeed, my life ntor is right here. I dare not disrespect him. We can learn martial arts from him, but nothing else – particularly the lessons he teaches about life.”
Hearing this, Red Demonic Spirit scoffed: “Oh, so I’ve made a scoundrel out of you now, huh?”
“I managed to keep my purity intact, which is more than most people can claim. If it were soone else, they’d either be a womanizer or a notorious thief.”
“If it weren’t for , you’d probably be a notorious ladies’ man by now. It’s because of
that you stay decent – at least a little.”
Rong’er giggled at their banter.
He Xibai and so maidservants brought in delightful dishes.
“Enough chitchat, let’s dig in,” Ye Chen concluded.
Soon after, Jiang Zhuge and Li Mo rushed in, looking flustered.
Jiang Zhuge said, “Ye Chen, you were right. The bearded n are indeed planning on taking action against Shen Bai!”
“Did they start yet?” Ye Chen asked.
“Not yet, but I saw Ling Bo and Tan Gao leading a large group of n towards Rabbit Mountain. Shen Bai and Zhao Kun are conducting so business there today and will pass through Rabbit Mountain. I believe they’ll ambush them there.”
Hearing this, Ye Chen stood and asked, “Are our n ready?”
Li Mo replied, “They’ve been ready. We can take off at any mont. Do we intervene?”
“No, let them fight for a while,” Ye Chen reflected. Unless Shen Bai and his group suffered so pain, they wouldn’t be able to make up their minds.”
Rong’er also stood up, looking like she wanted to join the action. But Ye Chen told her, “You stay here in Bamboo Forest Valley. We’ll take care of this and co back.” With that, he left with Jiang Zhuge.
But Guo Yuyun, always the thrill-seeker, chirped up, “Rong’er, you stay here. I’m going!” She then hurriedly chased after Ye Chen, eager for action.
Ye Chen could barely hold her back.
Guo Yuyun was puzzled about what Ye Chen was planning.
Li Mo mused, “If we really could beat up Shen Bai and Zhao Kun, we might even be able to force them to join our side.”
Ye Chen and Li Mo, leading about 300 people, left the rest to Jiang Zhuge and advised him, “Be careful. We don’t know what Xiao Bai is up to. He could invade Bamboo Forest Valley at any ti. Prepare yourselves quickly.”
Jiang Zhuge nodded, “Don’t worry, we’ll be vigilant.”
With that, Ye Chen departed with his team.
Guo Yuyun asked, “How are we going to deal with those guys?”
Ye Chen turned around and shouted, “You really aren’t afraid of dying, huh?”
She defied, “As long you’re here, what have I to fear?”
“When the ti cos, I’ll just leave you behind!”
Tan Gao and Ling Bo found out that Shen Bai and Zhao Kun were eting up with the leaders of various minor factions, discussing potential collaboration. So, they secretly prepared to attack.
As expected, by midday, Shen Bai and Zhao Kun decided to head back through the forest.
Thrilled, Tan Gao muttered, “These parasites dare to disobey
and join the New City Sect to oppose us? I won’t let them live to see tomorrow.”
Ling Bo intervened, “We’re here to teach them a lesson, not overdo it.”
“Yeah, but we have to be harsh to make them obedient. I’m sick of these parasites, always opposing
and expecting favors.”
Shen Bai and Zhao Kun each had about 200 n with them.
Shen Bai spoke, “I don’t know who spread the false rumor that we’ve agreed to stand with the New City Sect against the bearded n and Xiao Bai.”
Zhao Kun shook his head, “I have no idea.”
“This must be soone’s sche.”
Zhao Kun added, “No matter what they say, I indeed plan to join the New City Sect. If we continue to let the bearded man rule unchecked, he’ll only beco more defiant.”
“Are you serious, brother?”
“Of course, I am! The bearded man deems himself the ruler of this dark realm, utterly disregarding us. We can’t sit back anymore. We should consider collaborating with the New City Sect and the Xue Family.”
“The bearded man and Xiao Bai have ford an alliance with a Third Demon lurking behind them. I’m afraid we won’t stand a chance against them,” Shen Bai pointed out.
“But from what I heard, Yuan nhai is being held up in Ghost City, leaving only Xiao Bai and Chen Jiu here. They can’t mobilize any more help.”
“We must consider it thoroughly before making any decision as there’s no turning back,” Shen Bai, not wanting to provoke the Third Demon, remained cautious. While the last incident had infuriated him, he wasn’t sure they could handle the Third Demon and feared the consequences if things turned bad.
Zhao Kun said, “I think if we keep enduring, the big bearded man will only push us harder. It’s likely to get more and more difficult.”
“We’ll cross that bridge when we get to it.”
Suddenly a horde of monsters rushed toward us from the front. They were ferocious and vicious, grabbing anyone they saw.
Not knowing what had happened, Zhao Kun cried out, “Who dares to set up an ambush for us?”
From the front, Tan Gao shouted, “So you think my words are hot air, huh? Today, I’ll show you a lesson. You treat us like we don’t exist, right? You’ll taste what it’s like to get beat up now.”
Monsters from both sides surged forward to attack.
They were extrely ferocious.
Zhao Kun shouted, “Damn, it’s Tan Gao! They’re trying to get us!”
Shen Bai was sowhat taken aback. He hadn’t expected the big beard’s n to actually attack them.
Everyone was crying out in alarm.
“I’ll let you taste what death feels like!” Tan Gao was ruthless. He was extrely vicious, unleashing his Winged Dragon, and fireballs rained into the crowd one by one.
Shen Bai and Zhao Kun’s n scattered, trying to find cover.
“You’re nothing but parasites, daring to fight against us. Let’s see your New City Sect allies co to your aid now!”
Shen Bai’s n, unused to calls to battle, scread in panic. They thought they’d been surrounded and their formation had long since been thrown into chaos.
“Do you dare to work with people from the New City Sect again, huh? You think you’re so tough!” Tan Gao continuously taunted from the side.
Shen Bai was at a loss for what to do. So people were even suggesting surrender.
An enraged Zhao Kun could only curse the big bearded man’s ancestors under his breath.
When Tan Gao heard that, he yelled, “They dare to insult our leader. Wipe these parasites out!” His onslaught beca even more ruthless.
At that mont, Ye Chen led his n and suddenly launched their attack from behind Tan Gao and Ling Bo.
They were incredibly fierce, like a dark cloud blotting out the sky.
Ye Chen didn’t hold back. He went all-in from the very start, wielding full power.
The attack left Tan Gao and Ling Bo looking as if they’d been ambushed from the rear.
Ye Chen didn’t take it lightly, piling on as much aggression as he could. Monsters were sent scrambling in all directions, and the Winged Dragon let out a scream.
Shen Bai’s n were still debating whether to surrender when Tan Gao’s rear flanks were set ablaze, significantly easing their pressure.
Excitent instantly surged within Zhao Kun, who shouted, “We’ve endured for so many years, and they dare to lay hands on us. Brothers, it’s either us or the big bearded man today. If we let them keep this up, they’ll do whatever they want and we won’t have anywhere to stand in the days to co.”
Leading his n, he quickly charged forward, joining forces with Ye Chen and counterattacking Tan Gao’s n.
It felt as if everything had been planned in advance.
Tan Gao yelled, “Damn it, it’s a counterambush. We walked into a trap!”
Caught between a rock and a hard place, Zhao Kun saw this as an opportunity to avenge his fallen comrades, all the while still cursing the big beard’s ancestors.
Seeing the tide turning against them, Ling Bo urged, “Don’t fight anymore, let’s get out of here!”
Tan Gao said unwillingly, “This damn Zhao Kun, he’s not getting away with it so easily.”
Ling Bo was afraid of being surrounded, and wasn’t expecting people from the New City Sect to suddenly strike. Their timing was just too perfect, and there were just too many of them.
They quickly fled towards the forest.
“That big beard has been taking us for granted more and more. They’ve disregarded the rules, trying to get us, yet we’re expected to tolerate it! If we do, there’ll be no place for us in the dark territories in the future.” Zhao Kun kept fussing, his anger not yet subsided.
Ye Chen approached alongside Li Mo.
Li Mo had t Shen Bai and Zhao Kun before, but they hadn’t t Ye Chen.
Li Mo hurriedly asked, “Are you guys okay?”
Zhao Kun quickly thanked them, saying, “You really ca at a critical ti.”
“We were nearby and heard the noise of battle, so we ca over. Thankfully, you are alright. Let
introduce to you our Sect Leader, Ye Chen!” Li Mo said.
“So young.” Zhao Kun said.
Ye Chen said, “The important thing is that you are safe. As I see, Tan Gao and Ling Bo might have left, but it seems they still hold a grudge. You need to be careful.”
“Those two bastards wanted us dead here. But the Heavens were watching over us, we survived.”
“Well, we’ll be leaving if there’s nothing else,” Ye Chen said.
But Zhao Kun stopped him, saying, “Sect Leader Ye, don’t go yet. We want to discuss how to deal with the big bearded man and Xiao Bai next.”
This was exactly what Ye Chen wanted to hear.
