Chapter 418: Exposure
Clatter, clatter.
Water poured out from the faucet, and white foam flew everywhere.
A man was diligently washing dishes in front of the sink.
"Wash faster! Once you're done, come over and serve the dishes; the customers are waiting!"
The boss, with a face full of flabby flesh, walked into the back kitchen and kicked the man hard.
"Yes, yes, boss, I'm coming right away!"
A fawning smile covered the man's face, and he began to scrub the dishes even more vigorously.
No one would ever imagine that this timid man before them was one of the top experts under the Third Realm of the Hidden Dragon Shadow Guards, Ou Ou Liechen.
Because Yu Yu Lian had alerted the enemy last time, and Yu Yu Lian had also sustained injuries.
Therefore, during this period, the four of them had been honestly blending into Sang Kingdom society, without taking any action.
Ou Ou Liechen felt a bit of regret in his heart; if Yu Yu Lian hadn't acted last time, now would undoubtedly have been the best time to strike.
Ye Lin's continuous slaughter of cities had already attracted most of the Third Realm powerhouses of the Sang Kingdom away.
But this was also his own fault; if he, as the team leader, had stopped Yu Yu Lian when she wanted to act back then, it wouldn't have led to this awkward situation today.
In the end, he himself had been a bit too eager for quick success.
One dish after another was washed clean and stacked neatly.
But as he washed, Ou Ou Liechen suddenly frowned tightly.
It was too quiet.
At this hour, with night having just fallen, it was the time for the working cattle and horses to get off work and eat; the shop shouldn't be this quiet.
Ou Ou Liechen suddenly dodged violently to the side, and the next second, a terrifying beam of energy exploded right where he had just been standing!
"Oh? You actually managed to dodge it; you've got some skill."
A yellow-haired woman who looked like a hoodlum walked out slowly, blowing a bubble with her gum.
"Bright Moon Realm!"
Ou Ou Liechen's pupils shrank violently; he didn't have time to think about how he had been exposed, so he raised his hand to trap the yellow-haired woman in a barrier, then turned and cast another barrier on himself.
The yellow-haired woman, however, was not in the least bit anxious, a mocking smile hanging on the corners of her mouth.
"No need to run, just surrender, little mouse. A net has long been cast across the entire Dongjing City; you can't escape."
Ou Ou Liechen ignored her; seeing that he was exposed, he directly took out his communication device.
"Chen Chen Xiaocao, Yu Yu Lian, Student Zhuge Ni! We've been exposed, run!"
"You guys run, don't worry about me, I've been targeted by a Bright Moon Realm!"
Chen Chen Xiaocao's voice came from the communication device, accompanied by a series of intense explosions.
Ou Ou Liechen turned to look in the direction where flames were soaring into the sky; that was clearly where Chen Chen Xiaocao was currently located.
"I've been targeted too, I've temporarily shaken off that Bright Moon Realm, I'm on Taichuan Street," Yu Yu Lian's voice sounded.
"My situation is about the same as Yu Yu Lian's, I'm near Zhengyi City," Student Zhuge Ni said.
Ou Ou Liechen's heart sank, and his expression was extremely grim.
Being exposed in a place like Dongjing City, it was undoubtedly harder than ascending to heaven for them to escape.
"Yu Yu Lian, Chen Chen Xiaocao, initiate the Self-Sacrifice Plan."
Ou Ou Liechen's slightly hoarse voice sounded from the communication device.
Chen Chen Xiaocao and Yu Yu Lian were silent for a moment, then spoke.
"Understood!" X2
"What Self-Sacrifice Plan? What are you all going to do?" Student Zhuge Ni suddenly had a bad premonition.
Boom!
The next second, a terrifying beam of energy shot into the sky; that orange-red beam contained scorching energy, clearly visible to everyone in all of Dongjing City.
Chen Chen Xiaocao flew directly into the sky, her realm, which had already been at level 90, made another breakthrough, stepping directly into the Starry Sky Realm!
She, Yu Yu Lian, and Ou Ou Liechen had all long been able to break through to the Third Realm, but they had forcibly suppressed their realms for this mission.
Chen Chen Xiaocao's hands were directly reconstructed into two mechanical cannons.
"Come on! You bastards of the Sang Kingdom!"
Chen Chen Xiaocao raised her arms, and energy cannons blasted out one after another, launching a dazzling fireworks show in Dongjing City.
Every time a shot landed, several buildings were overturned.
Student Zhuge Ni's beautiful eyes shrank violently; she finally understood what the so-called Self-Sacrifice Plan meant.
With the Sang Kingdom people hunting them down in overwhelming numbers, Chen Chen Xiaocao's act of rising into the sky might look impressive, but in reality, it was no different from seeking death!
Just as Student Zhuge Ni was stunned, a black shadow approached her like a ghost.
Student Zhuge Ni, having reacted, was about to fight back when she realized the person who had come was Yu Yu Lian.
Yu Yu Lian stuffed a thin piece of human skin into Student Zhuge Ni's hand.
"This thing was given to me by Ye Lin; it can perfectly disguise you as someone else. Take this, it will definitely be able to help you."
Having said that, Yu Yu Lian turned to leave, but her footsteps suddenly paused, and she looked back with a smile, a smile as fleeting as an epiphyllum.
"If you can survive and leave, please help me tell Ye Lin that I am very grateful to him for saving me last time, it's just that I won't have the chance to repay him."
"Yu Yu Lian!"
Student Zhuge Ni exclaimed, but Yu Yu Lian's figure had already disappeared into the night.
"Go!"
Ou Ou Liechen, who had quickly rushed here, pulled Student Zhuge Ni into his barrier and began to rush out of Dongjing City with her.
"Ou Ou Liechen, let me out, I can deal with a Blazing Sun Realm! Trust me!"
Student Zhuge Ni's star-like double pupils were filled with worry and anger.
"I know."
Ou Ou Liechen's expression was cold.
"But there are five Blazing Sun Realms in the Sang Kingdom."
Student Zhuge Ni bit her lip tightly, her mind thinking frantically.
She desperately wanted to come up with a way to break the situation, but the situation before her was clearly a dead end.
This was a crushing defeat in terms of raw strength; even if they resisted with all their might, it was impossible to defeat five Blazing Sun Realms.
For the first time, Student Zhuge Ni experienced the feeling of despair.
"From the day we joined the Hidden Dragon Shadow Guards, we already knew that such a day would likely come."
Ou Ou Liechen suddenly spoke.
"The Self-Sacrifice Plan is for everyone else to voluntarily give up their lives to escort the most valuable person away."
"Student Zhuge Ni, you are undoubtedly the most valuable of the four of us. You living on will definitely be more useful than the three of us."
"So, please run, please... do your best to escape from Dongjing City."
After hearing Ou Ou Liechen's words, Student Zhuge Ni took a deep breath.
"Sorry, I can't do it. If the worst comes to the worst, we die together! If I return to the Great Xia, I will only become a tool for the Student Zhuge family anyway."
"Rather than becoming a cripple after the Student Zhuge family digs out my eyes, I, Student Zhuge Ni, would rather die in battle here!"
Ou Ou Liechen suddenly revealed a smug smile.
"Hehe, I knew you wouldn't agree to run; I'm so smart."
As soon as he finished speaking, Ou Ou Liechen's hands bloomed with a burst of red light, and as his hands began to dance, the surrounding space began to resonate with him.
"Ten Thousand Territories Boundary!"
A red light curtain suddenly appeared, covering Student Zhuge Ni and isolating everything around them.
Then the light curtain began to shrink slowly, until finally, it turned into a grain of sand and fell to the ground.
Ou Ou Liechen's complexion was extremely pale, and cold sweat poured from his forehead; it was clear that using this move was an extremely terrifying drain on him.
Student Zhuge Ni had never expected Ou Ou Liechen to suddenly act against her; she wanted to shatter the light curtain, but she couldn't shake it in the slightest.
After all, Student Zhuge Ni's ability was replication; without any strong experts around for her to replicate, the real strength she could exert was only level 81.
"Don't waste your effort, Student Zhuge Ni."
"This seal was constructed using my own life essence; even if a Blazing Sun Realm comes, they won't be able to find you."
"This seal can last for ten days; after ten days, remember to find a way to escape."
Having said that, Ou Ou Liechen turned and left; with every step he took, his aura grew stronger by a fraction.
After nine steps, Ou Ou Liechen stepped into the Starry Sky Realm and shot into the sky!
