The School Beauty's Super Rogue

Chapter 1379: Chapter 1374: Rescue

Moonlight descended through the branches above.

Illuminating the figure surrounded, revealing a refined and elegant noble young master.

His appearance was exceptionally handsome, but alas, his beautiful cheek was stained with blood, and his clothes were slightly disheveled, as if he had just endured a fierce battle.

This noble young master was none other than Young Master Xu.

"Xu Mu, we’re brothers, why speak so distantly?"

Young Master Xu looked at someone in the crowd and spoke.

"Heh heh, I’m just a small figure, how could I compare with one of the four great young masters, a top name on the Cyan Cloud List, Young Master Xu?"

A man with a wart on his brow said from the shadows.

This man was very ugly, but his body was very strong, with veins protruding on his arms, showing he was also a martial arts expert.

"Yes! Young Master Xu is appointed as the heir to the position of the next Patriarch! We are clearly from the same generation, yet we have to fight hard, it’s truly lowly beyond measure!"

"Heh heh, but the thing is, he has a powerful father, right?"

"Too bad now his father’s coup has failed, our poor Young Master Xu has become prey!"

The figures gradually became visible under the moonlight, and they were all wearing the distinctive attire of Xu Family disciples.

It turned out that the people besieging Young Master Xu were actually Xu Family colleagues!

Young Master Xu wore a carefree smile, yet inside, his heart gradually grew cold.

Could it be that I’m truly going to die here?

Three days ago, in a power struggle, his father unexpectedly lost and was thus imprisoned.

And the newly appointed Patriarch was Young Master Xu’s uncle.

This tyrant saw Young Master Xu as a thorn in his side and used the imminent opening of the Cyan Cloud Secret Realm as an excuse to set up a cruel training mission.

"To train the five competitors from Xu Family, all Xu Family members can hunt them down!"

This meant the five experts on the Cyan Cloud List had to face their own brothers’ siege in Ghost Cry Ridge.

And anyone who killed a competitor could replace them, becoming the new expert on the Cyan Cloud List.

Of course, also a competitor for the Cyan Cloud Secret Realm!

On the surface, the mission seemed fair enough.

After all, there were five people being hunted.

But, the new Patriarch secretly ordered otherwise.

No one else could be attacked, only Young Master Xu!

In other words, the hunted went from five to just Young Master Xu!

Now, Young Master Xu became the public enemy of Xu Family, hunted by everyone!

"As long as we take your head, the Patriarch will give us an immense reward, and I will have a chance to gain fortune in the Cyan Cloud Secret Realm!"

A young disciple named Xu Gong licked his lips, filled with greed.

Immediately, the surrounding people all showed murderous intent in their eyes, glaring at Young Master Xu.

Young Master Xu, amidst a crisis, was instead not so nervous.

He smiled warmly: "My head is just one, are you sure it can be shared?"

With these words, everyone was momentarily stunned. Then, each person subconsciously tensed up, ready to make a move.

Indeed, Young Master Xu’s head was just one.

There could only be one person to gain immense fortune.

What choice to make?

Of course, fight for it!

Seeing the growing division among them, the disciple named Xu Mu shouted: "Don’t let him sow discord among us!"

Seeing the disciples full of disbelief, Xu Mu continued to shout: "This cunning guy is trying to provoke us into a melee, then escape in the chaos! We can fight, but first let’s kill him!"

"Alright!"

This suggestion received many agreements.

Instantly, a myriad of murderous intents returned, weighing like a mountain on Young Master Xu.

"Sigh! Damn Xu Mu."

Young Master Xu sighed helplessly in his heart, he had lived his life as a noble young master, never expecting to face such a crisis today.

The message was sent to Qin Hao.

But the distance from Beijing to this place was vast, and even if there was a flight, it might not be in time.

Therefore, the chance of Qin Hao arriving here was slim.

Even if he could make it, this Ghost Cry Ridge was vast, the previous coordinates were already invalid, Qin Hao might not be able to find him!

Suppose, just suppose, if he did find him. Then what?

The people present might not be Cyan Cloud List experts.

But many were quite close to being on the list.

So many combined, Young Master Xu had no power to resist.

Even if Qin Hao had great abilities, he couldn’t do anything, right?

Thinking this, Young Master Xu forced a bitter smile: "Today I’m destined to die, but before I go, Xu Mu, I will kill you!"

"Ha! Unflinching in danger! Young Master Xu, your determination is truly admirable! But, alas, today you are destined to die!"

Xu Mu coldly smiled and shouted: "Attack!"

With that, nearly twenty figures all charged towards Young Master Xu.

The pressure was like a mountain.

The murderous aura thicker than the air.

At that moment, Young Master Xu horrifyingly realized he couldn’t even muster the strength to move!

His vitality was completely locked.

Destined for doom!

The next moment.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh!

A sudden gust of wind blew from nowhere.

The whirlwind slowed and distorted the attackers’ movements.

And Young Master Xu, too, became much clearer minded under the gale.

He fixed his gaze, no matter what this strange wind was, at least I now have a chance!

Next moment, he stomped his foot, cracking the heavy earth below.

And Young Master Xu himself flew straight up.

"Cough cough cough!"

Just as he rose into the air, Young Master Xu smelled gunpowder, his eyes filled with a whitish fog, and somehow this forest was already engulfed in thick mist!

"What! What is happening!"

Even Young Master Xu, well-traveled as he was, did not know what was going on. However, he didn’t have time to investigate as the tension lingered in his mind.

Though he was aloft, eventually he’d have to come down.

What would happen once he came down?

There was only desolation in Young Master Xu’s heart.

And at that moment, a light voice drifted in, "Hold on tight!"

Whoosh!

Something approached through the mist, Young Master Xu instinctively grabbed it, yanking hard, and then his body was pulled and swept away.

Cre-aaak!

After a brief glide, Young Master Xu landed on a branch, his ear catching that familiar voice: "Xiaoxu, your reflexes are quite sharp."

"Big brother!"

Young Master Xu’s body shivered, his eyes shining with excitement.

Though still shrouded in thick mist, that silhouette was gradually becoming clearer.

That tall figure, handsome face, and wicked smile, who else could it be but Qin Hao?

"Hey! Where is he!"

"That devil disappeared! Did any of you see him!"

"No! Impossible! Why would he get away!"

Behind, Xu Family disciples let out enraged roars.

Young Master Xu had a lot to say, but hearing the rustling sounds behind, he knew it wasn’t the right time, and whispered: "Big brother, let’s find another place to catch up!"
