C297 An unexpected knot

With that, Chen Yan got his subordinates to give the remaining half of the rewards to the people present.

Thank you!

Thank you! Princess Chen!

Receiving the other half of the reward, the guards all heaved a sigh of relief, and thanked Chen Yan one after the other.

It has been hard for you all to escort us here. If not for their escort, we wouldn't have come here so easily.

Chen Yan waved his hand to everyone and said.

The reason why she hired these people was to conserve her physical strength. If it wasn't because she couldn't let them know what happened next, she even wanted these people to continue escorting her.

It's no trouble, it's our honor to be able to escort the princess of Sky Demon Kingdom!

Yes, yes, it is our honor!

Chen Yan's skin was white, although he was dressed in male attire, his eyes and teeth were bright. If he were to change into a female attire, he would definitely be a beauty.

Being able to protect beautiful women was an honor to them.

Alright, let's not talk about the rest. We still need to hurry on our way, please go back. Chen Yan smiled faintly, and after that, his gaze once again returned to the spot where Ye Dongfeng and the others were standing just a moment ago, and he said:

But, when everyone returns back, I might have to look for another path, although I do not know why Chu Ming is looking for the four of them, I do not know. But Chu Ming has a bad temper, if he suddenly finds trouble with you guys, I won't be able to help you guys …

Upon hearing these words, everyone turned their gazes to the foot of the mountain.

At that place, a large amount of smoke was currently permeating the air. One could only vaguely see a large part of the forest being swept flat.

From the scale of the destruction, one could imagine just how intense the battle had been.

Was that Chu Ming from the Great Chu City?

Hm, yes. I've been to the Great Chu City once before, and I've seen him from afar. Those people he brought with him were all the elites of the city …

Who would have thought that Ye Dongfeng would actually offend such a ruthless person!

Right, I wonder what kind of feud they had with the Great Chu City. They actually managed to get their men to chase them all the way here!

What grudges are not important? I only know that they are unable to escape this time, more than 20 have surrounded and killed four. Even if they have monstrous abilities, it is impossible for them to survive …

However, from the sound just now, they seemed to have fought for quite a while. To be able to hold out against Chu Ming for so long, those four people did have some skills!

Listening to these people's sighs, Chen Yan also shook his head slightly.'s sword strike earlier, had left a good impression on her.

However, after a moment of silence, she suppressed the regret in her heart.

Once again, he said to the escorts, "Everyone, we still need to hurry on our way. Farewell …"

However, before she finished speaking, a faint voice suddenly sounded from the sky, interrupting her words in the blink of an eye.

Princess Chen, you haven't, give us the other half of the reward, don't be in such a hurry to leave!

Hearing this, Chen Yan's expression became obvious shock. His body tensed up, and from the position where his voice came from, he suddenly raised his head, and looked at the Windy Eagles which was swooping down from the sky with extreme speed.

When everyone heard Ye Dongfeng, they could not help but raise their heads and look at the sky in shock.

How could they, how could they still be alive?

If they were still alive, didn't that mean that Chu Ming's group had already been killed by them?

When they thought of this possibility, all of them could not help but shiver.

Four against more than twenty people, and one of them was an expert who had a small reputation in the Land of Hundred Refinements.

In their eyes, this was simply impossible.

However, the faint smile on the young man's face clearly told them that all of this was real.

This young man whom they had looked down upon before, had really survived from the hands of Chu Ming and the others.

At this moment, waves of shock rolled through their hearts.

Hehe, Princess Chen, why are you looking at us like that?

Ye Dongfeng slowly walked down from the spread of the Windy Eagles's wings. Seeing the surprised Chen Yan, a smile flashed across his face as he asked.

I never thought that you all would actually be able to escape from Chu Ming's hands!

Chen Yan realized that he had lost control of himself and laughed awkwardly.

Hehe … Gu Xian, who was at the side, laughed tenderly when she heard Chen Yan's words.

She could understand why Chen Yan had lost his composure. Just now, the shock on her face wasn't any weaker than Chen Yan's.

There were more than 20 of them, and she had thought she needed to help.

However, they did not expect Ye Dongfeng to say this in an indifferent tone. I wanted to test the might of the Illusory Sword Arts, and make all three of them watch by the side.

How is this possible?!

Even after hearing Gu Xian's laughter, the General Chen still did not dare believe it.

He knew Chu Ming, he had no confidence in defeating him.

But now, these people had actually defeated Chu Ming, which meant that they were stronger than him?!

When he saw Gu Xian's charming gaze, his heart tightened. It was really a foolish decision for him to confront them just now.

Although there were elders present, if they were to fight with each other based on the opponent's strength, then both of them would likely suffer losses.

At that time, the mission would be affected.

Turning his head to look at the old man behind him, he saw him shaking his head at him. General Chen nodded silently and took a few steps back, not wanting to attract Ye Dongfeng's attention.

The old man then whispered into Chen Yan's ears.

Chen Yan listened to his mutterings and silently nodded his head as well. After which, he waved his hand at his subordinates, telling them to give the remaining half of the reward to Ye Dongfeng.

Young Master, this is the remaining half of your reward! Chen Yan saw that after Ye Dongfeng received the gold coins, he immediately laughed and said.

The rest of the journey is too dangerous, so I don't need you to escort me.

Thank you, Princess Chen!

After looking at Chen Yan's face for a moment, Ye Dongfeng cupped his hands and said with a smile.

Alright, everyone, let's say our goodbyes. Hopefully, we'll have another chance to work together next time!

Being unnaturally stared at by Ye Dongfeng, Chen Yan immediately turned his gaze away, and cupped his fist to the surrounding people who were still in a daze, and then brought his own people to surround the interior of the Han Jia Shan.

She seems to be afraid of us! Gu Xian looked at Chen Yan's figure that gradually disappeared in the distance, and whispered into Ye Dongfeng's ears: It feels like he's hiding something!

I've already left a mark on her body. Let's take a break here, we'll know what they're hiding when we catch up with them …
