Seeing Yuan Shi's figure gradually disappear, Yuan Nai's expression changed, and she called out coldly to the side.
"call out"
The black figure swiftly landed in front of Yuan Nai and respectfully knelt down.
"Meet the master!"
"Shadow, lead a small team to protect the young lady!"
"As ordered!"
At this moment, Luo Chen and Wan Fang entered the city again. Looking at the guards patrolling the city, Luo Chen whispered to Wan Fang:
"Besides your enemy Yuan Nai, what other powerful families are there in Qingmu City?"
“Master, they are the City Lord’s Mansion and Tianmu Mansion respectively.”
Just as Wanfang finished speaking, she suddenly stopped, staring intently ahead without saying another word.
Following Wanfang's gaze, Yuan Shi, who had come out of the Yuan residence earlier, gradually came into Luo Chen's view.
"Wanfang, do you know her?" Luo Chen asked in confusion.
"Master, she is Yuan Shi!"
At this moment, a look of surprise appeared in Luo Chen's eyes as he said to Wan Fang:
"Wanfang, go and lure her out of the city!"
"Yes!"
Upon hearing Luo Chen's order, Wan Fang didn't hesitate at all and rushed towards Yuan Shi's direction.
A figure flashed past Yuan Shi's eyes. The naive Yuan Shi, believing herself to be quite strong and therefore safe from any danger, showed a look of surprise on her face and quickly followed after the figure.
"Great! I didn't expect to run into this assassin as soon as I left home!"
Watching Yuan Shi chase after him, a faint smile gradually appeared on Luo Chen's lips.
Just as Luo Chen was about to turn around and leave, several auras appeared in his mind at the same time.
Luo Chen quickly scanned various corners and saw several men dressed in black appear in his sight. After seeing Yuan Shi chase after him, he also set off to follow.
Chapter 116 Interception
"I didn't expect there would be guards following behind. Well then, I'll deal with you first!"
After Luo Chen finished speaking, he immediately followed behind the men in black.
When Wanfang and Yuanshi rushed out of the city, Wanfang immediately ran towards the place Luochen had told her.
Thinking that her whereabouts had been discovered, Yuan Shi's face showed a look of anxiety, and she hurriedly followed ahead.
"Captain, Miss, speed up! Let's catch up quickly!" a man in black beside him said hurriedly.
"Ok!"
Shadow nodded, and just as he was about to follow, Luo Chen's figure gradually emerged from the side, a wicked smile on his face, and he addressed the group:
"Gentlemen, where are you all rushing off to?!"
At that moment, a cold glint flashed in the shadows' eyes, and they spoke in an icy tone:
"kill!"
The moment those words fell, the well-trained man in black quickly located the location and his figure transformed into a blur as he swiftly rushed forward.
At this moment, Luo Chen weighed the stone in his hand a few times, and the smile on his lips grew even wider.
"shhhhh"
A sharp, piercing sound rang out, and the black-clad man rushing towards them suddenly froze, his body involuntarily falling forward.
"what"
Suddenly, a scream rang out, and a look of confusion appeared in Shadow's eyes as he stared intently at every move in front of him.
Fresh blood kept flowing from the buttocks of those people.
"hey-hey"
A cruel smile flashed across Luo Chen's lips, and as a cold glint appeared in his eyes, he shot forward from his spot.
A cold light suddenly shone from Luo Chen's palm as he used the dagger he had snatched from Wan Fang to swiftly slash past each of the men in black.
"puff puff"
Blood kept gushing from his neck, and with each scream, a man in black would fall limply to the ground.
Seeing this, the look in the shadows grew increasingly serious.
When Luo Chen landed steadily on the ground, only Luo Chen and An Ying remained standing unharmed on this piece of land.
"Who exactly are you! Do you know that what you're doing is tantamount to courting death!" Shadow said coldly to Luo Chen.
When Luo Chen heard Dark Shadow's words, he let out a disdainful chuckle and said calmly to Dark Shadow:
"Really? I really didn't expect that. I just don't know if you have the ability!"
At this point, Shadow roared angrily, his hand flashing like a gust of wind across his waist, his figure transforming into a blur as he swiftly flew towards Luo Chen's direction.
When Luo Chen saw the speed of the shadow, he already had a rough idea in his mind that the shadow must be a master.
"It's not that amazing!"
After saying something with amusement, Luo Chen casually toyed with the dagger in his hand, a cold glint flashing in his eyes, and forcefully threw the dagger towards the shadow.
"call out!"
Upon hearing the piercing sound, a look of seriousness appeared in Shadow's eyes, and he quickly raised the dagger in his hand to block.
"clang"
A crisp clang rang out instantly, and a powerful impact erupted from the dagger in Shadow's hand.
The sparks from the clash of the Jin soldiers were enough to demonstrate the immense force with which Luo Chen had thrown that dagger!
A slight numbness ran through the tiger's mouth. As Shadow's figure spun to the side and landed on the ground, he looked at Luo Chen in shock.
"Who is this person? His throwing power is so great; he doesn't seem like the assassin from before! Could that assassin have had accomplices?"
"How about it? Want to try again? If you're not going to make a move, then it's my turn!"
As soon as Luo Chen finished speaking, his figure suddenly disappeared from the spot.
When Shadow saw this scene, his eyes narrowed, his body tensed up, and he dared not relax for a moment, his eyes vigilantly scanning his surroundings for every move!
"You also possess the abilities of a master, but your speed is far too slow!"
A cold voice rang in Shadow's ears instantly. Upon hearing those words, Shadow's pupils constricted, and he thrust the dagger in his hand rapidly backward.
"boom"
However, just as the shadowy figure turned halfway around, his mind went blank for a moment, and then his legs went light, and his body fell limply forward.
His body crashed heavily to the ground. Although the alertness of an assassin allowed Shadow to react to the previous attack in a short time, for two people of the same level but with a significant difference in strength, such a short time was enough!
A feeling of unease suddenly arose in Shadow's heart, and almost instinctively he swung the dagger in his hand toward Luo Chen.
"boom"
A powerful blow struck Shadow's wrist instantly, and with a crisp sound of bones shattering, the dagger in his hand fell straight down.
"hey-hey"
A cold smile appeared on Luo Chen's face. With a flick of his wrist, he grasped the dagger and stabbed it directly at Shadow's arm.
"what"
A pig-like scream rang out from Shadow's mouth, and a large amount of cold sweat dripped down Shadow's cheeks.
"hateful!"
Shadow let out a painful howl, a resolute look flashing in his eyes, and used his other hand to strike the arm that had been stabbed by the dagger.
"click"
"what"
The pain of losing his arm nearly made Shadow faint, but Shadow knew very well that he absolutely could not faint now, because the price of falling would be eternal sleep!
Despite the pain in his arm, Shadow slammed his palm into the ground, using the force of the impact to propel himself backward.
When Luo Chen saw this scene, he slowly stopped what he was doing, a faint smile on his face, and said contemptuously to the shadow:
"To be honest, I admire your courage, but you're just putting yourself through more pain. Why bother?!"
Chapter 117 Playful Battle
"Hmph, don't be so smug. The outcome is still uncertain!"
After saying this in a cold voice, Shadow quickly dodged to the side, gathered a stream of true energy in his palm, and forcefully swung it at the tree next to him.
"boom"
With a loud crash, the thick tree snapped in half and hurtled directly toward Luo Chen.
Upon seeing this, Luo Chen's eyes were filled with contempt. His figure turned into a blur as he forcefully swung his hand upwards.
"boom"
A powerful blow erupted from Luo Chen's palm in an instant, and the thick tree trunk instantly turned into dust and disappeared into the air.
At this moment, a cold smile appeared on Luo Chen's lips, and he said coldly:
"It's time to end the game!"
As soon as Luo Chen finished speaking, he suddenly gripped the dagger tightly in his hand and rushed forward at lightning speed.
Sensing the sharp aura emanating from the light, the shadow's eyes were filled with panic as it frantically searched its surroundings for something to defend itself.
"puff"
A sharp pain instantly shot through Shadow's chest as he looked painfully at the dagger.
Blood dripped from the blade onto the ground. As Luo Chen pulled the dagger from Shadow's chest, Shadow's body fell limply to the ground.
Slowly sheathing the dagger, Luo Chen's figure swiftly flew forward.
At this moment, Wanfang led Yuanshi towards the place where Luochen and the others had escaped from the Yuan Mansion.
After Wanfang stopped, she slowly looked at Yuanshi's face.
At this moment, Yuan Shi's face was full of smugness, and she said to Wan Fang in a contemptuous tone:
"Finally out of breath, huh! Come back with me obediently and don't put up any futile resistance. Maybe if I'm in a better mood, I might spare your life!"
"Oh? Really? Aren't you afraid the wind will shine on your head!" Wanfang replied firmly.
"Hmph, since you're so ungrateful, don't blame me for being impolite!"
After Yuan Shi spoke coldly to Wan Fang, a chilling glint flashed in her eyes. She suddenly lashed her waist with her hand, and a thin whip lashed out swiftly towards Wan Fang.
Upon seeing this, a look of panic flashed in Wanfang's eyes, and she quickly dodged to the side.
"Snapped"
The powerful blow struck the tree instantly, snapping a thick tree, which was so large that it would take one person to encircle it, in half.
Yuan Shi sneered and said sarcastically to Wan Fang:
"I'm only telling you this because we're both women. If you continue to be so stubborn, you'll end up like that tree!"
"Hmph, show me what you've got!" Wanfang shouted at Yuanshi.
"I don't know how to praise!"
After saying this angrily, Yuan Shi raised the long whip in her hand again, preparing to strike Wan Fang again.
"A girl like you, so rude, might never get married!"
A playful laugh suddenly rang out behind Yuan Shi. Upon hearing that sound, Yuan Shi's expression changed instantly, and she quickly turned around.
However, just as Yuan Shi turned around, a pair of strong hands suddenly grabbed her shoulders, and after a wet sensation on her lips, Yuan Shi's eyes were filled with panic.
Looking at Luo Chen in front of her, Yuan Shi's face was full of anger. She raised her hand and prepared to strike Luo Chen's body with the whip.
Little did Luo Chen know, he had already anticipated this move. Sensing the movement in her hand, he swiftly gripped her wrist, and after parting his lips from Yuan Shi's, he smiled and said:
