Free Web NovelChapter 1341: Chapter 519: Yu Youhan’s Intimidation! The Mysterious Woman of the Chen Mansion! (2)
Whoosh—
The wind howled through the courtyard as the three people, each with their own team, flew away.
Jiang Wangye’s smile faded, his face turning grim, as he turned to the Bright Mirror and bowed, saying: "There’s been a change in circumstances. The Demon Extermination Crossbow was destroyed; I’m afraid the thunder tribulation won’t be able to affect Consort Yu... What should we do now?"
Inside the coffin, one of the "corpses" suddenly sat up, a hoarse voice emanating from the mirror, "Don’t panic. Follow the original plan, the Eightfold Exorcism Array is the key. Before the array is completely broken, the Array Map must be retrieved."
"And also handle that Array Master Sun Chongli."
"Yes." Jiang Wangye nodded in agreement, putting away the treasure mirror and quickly left the residence.
...
...
Capital Camp Training Field.
The alchemy process had reached its most critical moment, and the thunder tribulation strikes became more frequent, almost covering all colors!
With Her Majesty the Consort protecting, there’s no need to worry too much. The Daoist Venerable only needs to focus on outputting alchemy fire. Under the tempering of the Fire of Duality, the pill embryo began to gradually gather Daoist Charm.
At this rate, the pill will surely form within seven days!
Boom—
Suddenly, a muffled sound came from the distant city, and the sky was pierced with fire!
At the same time, the communication jade in Chen Mo’s arms began to buzz and flash, a prearranged alert from his people, signaling any sudden events at the Chen Mansion.
"In that direction..."
"Seems like it’s Ming’an Street?"
Ling Ningzhi’s expression changed slightly, saying: "Could those guys be trying to target the Chen Family?!"
Although she didn’t know who was behind this, managing to sneak so many demons into the city, and using the Demon Extermination Crossbow to attack the training field, clearly pointed to someone formidable!
And her intuition told her that their goal was certainly not as simple as stopping the alchemy!
Chen Mo furrowed his brow and said: "You stay here with Elder Ling, I need to go and check!"
Ling Ningzhi was naturally uneasy; it was likely an enemy’s diversion tactic... It was then that Yuan Junfeng spoke up: "Why don’t I accompany Mr. Chen?"
"Counselor?" Chen Mo shook his head, "Isn’t that inappropriate?"
"It’s perfectly fine." Yuan Junfeng’s face was solemn, saying: "There are two Ultimate Venerables here, nothing unexpected should happen. Since this involves the Demon Clan, it’s within the Demon Suppression Department’s duty, I cannot sit idly by!"
"Besides, the opponent is well-prepared this time, if we encounter an ambush on the way, we can look out for each other!"
"That works." Chen Mo considered for a moment and didn’t refuse, nodding: "Then I’ll trouble the Counselor."
The two didn’t delay much, entrusting the task of guarding the training field entirely to Guo Xiaoyong, and after a simple briefing, they swiftly flew towards the city.
Yuan Junfeng, as the second-in-command of the Sky Scale Guard, had long reached the Heavenly Human First Grade, making him one of the most powerful figures in all of Jiu Zhou. However, he was usually extremely low-key and rarely displayed his true strength.
The Capital Camp was in the North Suburb, while Ming’an Street was located in East City, spanning nearly half of the Capital City.
Fortunately, the cultivation depth of the two enabled exceptional speed, crossing a hundred miles in mere moments, and from afar, they could see fire rising into the sky and heat waves swirling, indicating someone was fighting, exactly at the location of Chen Mansion!
"It seems their target is not just the Commander!" Yuan Junfeng gritted his teeth, "Mr. Chen has previously exterminated many demons, becoming a thorn in the demon clan’s side, they seem to have turned their aim on the Chen Family, seeking revenge!"
Chen Mo nodded, "Lord Yuan is correct, these demons are truly detestable."
Yuan Junfeng’s eyes were filled with killing intent, as he said: "Are your parents still in the mansion? We must swiftly eliminate the demons to prevent casualties!"
"No rush." Chen Mo waved his hand, saying: "My mother is a Martial Arts Grandmaster herself, and it’s rare for her to stretch her muscles, let them fight for a bit first, but before that, I have somewhere else to go..."
With that, he turned and flew towards the East Suburb.
Yuan Junfeng was taken aback and quickly followed, asking in confusion: "Where are you going?"
Chen Mo smiled, saying: "The Demon Suppression Department."
Yuan Junfeng: ???
...
...
Half a quarter of an hour ago.
A dozen or so strong men, in brocade martial robes, silently gathered outside the Chen Mansion’s gate.
Staring at the tightly closed black door, Wanqi Shuofeng’s eyes were fierce, and he coldly said: "Quick battle! Leave no survivors except for the Chen Zhuo couple!"
Having decided to strike, it was essential to eliminate the roots!
Anyway, the Emperor had already passed away, so there was no need to hold back any longer!
As for Chen Mo’s parents, they can be detained first, just as a backup option. After all, Jiang Wangye’s words can’t be fully trusted. In case of failure, it’s an alternative escape route.
"A blood feud can only be paid back with blood!"
"Today, I will use the lives of everyone in the Chen Family to honor the spirit of my deceased brother!"
Wanqi Shuofeng raised his hand and waved, the main door shattered with a bang, wooden splinters flying everywhere—
"Kill!"
The group behind responded and drew their weapons, charging in.
However, upon entering the courtyard, they found it empty, not even a single servant in sight.
"Where are the people?" Wanqi Shuofeng raised an eyebrow slightly, expanded his Divine Sense, and still found nothing. He said, "Could they have caught wind and hid in advance? Search each room, don’t miss any clues..."
Before he finished speaking, he seemed to sense something and suddenly looked up.
He saw a woman in a red dress sitting on the eaves, legs crossed, swinging casually, holding a white porcelain wine pot in her hand, a slight blush on her radiant face.
?!
Wanqi Shuofeng’s face changed dramatically!
They were so close, yet he hadn’t noticed her presence just now?!
This woman had no trace of Primordial Qi fluctuations, but she made him feel a sense of alarm, and her appearance seemed somewhat familiar, though he couldn’t recall where he had seen her before...
"Who are you?!" Wanqi Shuofeng stepped back and asked.
"I’ve been waiting for more than twenty days, almost dying of boredom, finally you’ve come."
The woman glanced at the people below, a faint smile of excitement on her lips, "One First Grade, one Second Grade, two Third Grades... quite the lineup; not bad, it’ll keep me entertained for a while."
Wanqi Shuofeng’s face turned even more unsightly.
From the sound of it, they had just agreed on this matter, and she was already prepared?
In this situation, either Jiang Wangye was plotting against him, or there was a mole!
In any case, this place is not safe to linger!
"Retreat!"
Without a second thought, Wanqi Shuofeng turned to flee.
Just as he moved, an old man appeared at the doorway, his hair white as a crane, eyes sharp, wearing a blue satin sleeve robe embroidered with the sea and river.
Someone from the court!
His Qi was concealed, as steady as a mountain, likely a First Grade Grandmaster too!
"Isn’t it a bit late for you to decide to leave now?" the old man said softly.
Buzz——
As soon as he spoke, light beams emerged from the bricks, intertwining above, like an inverted bowl, enveloping the entire mansion!
Even the Array was prepared in advance, clearly planning to capture them in the nest!
Wanqi Shuofeng’s face grew even darker.
In front was an old man whose realm rivaled his own, and behind him was a woman of unknown origins. The situation had turned adverse, but he showed little panic; as long as the Ultimate Venerable didn’t get involved, it wouldn’t be easy to capture him!
"I am Wanqi Shuofeng, newly arrived in your esteemed place, and I haven’t yet asked for your honorable names?" Wanqi Shuofeng cupped his hands.
"Wanqi Shuofeng?" The old man raised his brow slightly, and asked, "Are you Wanqi Tinglan’s son? The current heir of the Wan Qi Family?"
"You seem to know quite a lot," Wanqi Shuofeng felt a bit more relieved. Since the other party knew of the Wan Qi Family name, they wouldn’t dare act rashly. He placed his hands behind his back and said indifferently, "Invading the Chen Mansion was indeed improper, but it is only to seek justice for my brother... since no harm has been done, why not just call it quits?"
The implication was simple: as long as he was allowed to leave, the matter concerning Wanqi Kai would no longer be pursued.
However, the old man’s breathing became rapid, his eyes shining with enthusiasm as he stared at him intently, "No wonder Mr. Chen’s intelligence is so accurate, it truly is a big catch!"
"Your Highness, Princess, would you like to take action personally, or shall I make the first move?"
The red-dressed woman stood up, stretched her waist, revealing her slender waistline, "Step aside, it’s rare to have the chance to stretch my muscles, I certainly can’t miss it."
"Your Highness, Princess?"
Upon hearing this title, Wanqi Shuofeng was momentarily stunned, then suddenly realized, turning back in disbelief.
"You are Chu Yan..."
The character "li" had yet to be spoken when his entire vision was filled with dazzling golden light—
A giant golden hand descended from the sky!
