Translator: 549690339
Upon hearing Wen Zi’s words, several high-minded outer sect disciples of the Ming Emperor Sect stepped forward to help her, hoping to win her favor. However, in an instant, electric light flashed, and the disciples who wanted to protect Wen Zi were sent crashing to the ground, blood gushing out.
Yang Chen, wielding the Forbidden Purple Dragon Spear, calmly walked towards Wen Zi. No one dared to stop him.
Whoever blocks his way shall be killed without mercy!
Blood splattered wildly, and bodies lay strewn across the way.
As he walked, Yang Chen’s voice was chilling: “My target is only this woman, if anyone dares to stop me, prepare to die.”
His words struck their ears like a thunderclap, and the remaining Ming Emperor Sect disciples were horrified.
No one dared to help Wen Zi anymore.
Fear spread through their hearts, and they lacked the courage to act.
Seeing that no one was willing to help her, Wen Zi’s body trembled with anger. “Quickly, stop him! You bunch of useless trash! Whoever stops him, I will surely thank them in the future!”
If it were normal times, her promise to thank them would surely draw many outer sect disciples of the Ming Emperor Sect to help. There were quite a few disciples who had passed the age of twenty, stuck at the third or fourth stage of Spirit Martial Realm, with no path to enter the Inner Sect. Naturally, they sought the favor of a beautiful, talented girl like Wen Zi.
Undoubtedly, Wen Zi was the most popular disciple among the outer sect.
But not today.
Simply for her promise of being grateful, should they risk their lives for her?
What a joke!
Did Wen Zi overestimate the value of her gratitude?
Wen Zi clearly thought that her gratitude was worth too much. Seeing that no one was helping her, she stomped her foot in fear and tried to flee.
However, she was incomparably slower than Yang Chen. In just an instant, Yang Chen was right in front of her.
“Miss Wen, what’s the hurry to run away?” Yang Chen suddenly blocked Wen Zi’s path, his voice as cold as air from an icebox.
Wen Zi shivered all over, her eyes wide in fear as she looked at Yang Chen’s frost-covered body. “Yang Chen, I… I have no grievances with you, please…please don’t kill me!”
She still wanted to live, to be a phoenix in the sky, admired by all.
“True, there’s no enmity between us. But I’m curious, why did you kill Liu Taixing?” Yang Chen suddenly questioned.
Wen Zi was taken aback, her mouth agape and speechless. “You… how did you know… No, it was you who killed Liu Taixing!”
“Shut up.” Yang Chen’s rebuke frightened Wen Zi, making her retreat several steps.
Yang Chen deeply looked at Wen Zi and suddenly laughed.
He had wondered who was trying to frame him.
Now, he finally understood.
It was all because of this Wen Zi!
In that sudden question about why she killed Liu Taixing, he was merely testing her. He had no evidence to back his suspicion.
His suspicions originated from the fact that Wen Zi and Liu Taixing had a rocky relationship. She even berated him for his temporary failure.
With Liu Taixing’s death, why would this woman mourn him?
Her grief reminded Yang Chen of an expression: mourning like a fox for the death of a rabbit!
Indeed. there was no reason for this woman to act this wav. Doing so only
raised further suspicions. As such, Yang Chen felt that Wen Zi was hiding something. The moment he decided to probe her, he discovered her true colors.He was now almost sure that the one who killed Liu Taixing and framed him was definitely this woman. He didn’t know why she killed Liu Taixing, but he knew that the malicious intentions of this woman were far beyond his imagination.
Thinking of this, Yang Chen gripped the Forbidden Purple Dragon Spear and pointed it at Wen Zi: “Keep your life for now, I’ll come for it sooner or later.” As he finished speaking, Yang Chen sneered and disappeared in a flash.
There was a reason why he didn’t kill Wen Zi.
If he really killed her, the truth would never see the light of day. Although he wasn’t afraid of being hunted by the Ming Emperor Sect, he couldn’t bear being wronged forever. To bring the truth to light, he had to start with Wen Zi.
However, in this current situation, getting Wen Zi to confess the truth would obviously not be easy.
Yang Chen held his hands behind his back, not even glancing at Wen Zi, and headed straight for the edge of the formation.
Wen Zi was shocked and dripping with cold sweat, standing there as if she had been frightened out of her wits.
“This tiny formation wants to trap me, Yang Chen?” Yang Chen shouted and then viciously stabbed the Forbidden Purple Dragon Spear. The power of Thunderbolt instantly swept out, and with a loud boom, the formation broke open, making a huge hole.
The next moment, Yang Chen’s voice echoed: “Brother Python, Bear Elder One and Bear Elder Two, let’s go!”
On hearing this, the demonic python and Black Mountain Black Bear brothers hurried towards Yang Chen. In an instant, they disappeared into the Eight Extremities Flowing River Space without a trace.
Yang Chen had no intention of staying, and since he couldn’t deal with Elder Gu, he didn’t plan to stay either. In a flash, he escaped the formation.
This scene made Elder Gu furious, and he bellowed, “Where are you running
The next moment, Elder Gu chased after Yang Chen!
Wen Zi still stood at the original place, not yet having recovered from the shock. Fear enveloped her, her chest heaving, and her beautiful face pale, as if she had just come back from the brink of death.
Her disheveled and sweaty appearance attracted the gazes of the Ming Emperor Sect’s Outer Sect Disciples. One after another, they came up to comfort her, saying, “Junior Sister Wen Zi, are you all right?”
“Yes, Junior Sister, are you okay?”
Wen Zi roared, “Get lost!”
Did these Outer Sect Disciples think they could please her? They should be her slaves and exist to lick her toes.
She should be a soaring phoenix above the Ninth Heaven, but how dared these people not risk their lives to save her just now? Yang Chen dared to kill her and humiliate her. She could kill someone like Yang Chen, play with him as she pleased!
She had the Ming Emperor Sect, MO Shengyun, and MO Shengyun’s Taotu Sect behind her to act as a shield!
She also had so many Outer Sect Disciples under her command; she just couldn’t believe she couldn’t kill Yang Chen!
At the same time, chaos continued in the outside world.
“Look, that’s the Deacon Elder stationed in MO City by the Ming Emperor Sect!” “Who is he chasing?”
“It’s a young man. I don’t know what trouble he’s gotten into with the Ming Emperor Sect. A half-step Yuan Martial Realm expert!”
While they were still inside the formation, the outside world couldn’t see the movement or the scene. But now that Yang Chen had broken the formation and come out, the scene was clearly visible to all.
This was also within Yang Chen’s expectations. The only problem was that, inside the formation, his Black Mountain Black Bear and the demonic python wouldn’t be seen by too many people, so they could be used.
It was different once they were outside.
He had originally thought that Elder Gu would try to kill him inside the formation, but now that he had escaped, the old man still wouldn’t leave him be.
This made Yang Chen extremely annoyed.. Did they want to kill him?
