Chapter 25: Innate martial arts!
"Woof! Woof!"
"Woof, woof, woof~!"
The barking of the black giant dog went from warning to urgent.
Finally, it lunged forward and crashed into the closed courtyard door.
"The criminal is trying to escape!"
The leading Martial Suppression Division guard, a black-faced man, scanned the area and happened to see a figure in the courtyard jumping over the wall to leave.
Immediately, he waved his hand and barked, "Chase!"
As the words fell, he tipped his toes, leaped into the air, stepped on the wall, landed on the roof, and flew in pursuit.
Whoosh~
Other Martial Suppression Division guards either landed on the roof or came out of the courtyard and ran in the alley.
The hundred-plus martial artists following behind followed suit; some went on the roof, some ran in the alley.
The team suddenly dispersed, moving quickly, chasing the fleeing Luo Zhaoyu!
Shh, shh~
Chen Mu activated his light martial arts, landed on the roof, and followed behind.
When he went out in the morning, he had put on a human-skin mask, turning into an ordinary middle-aged man.
At this moment, a dozen loose martial artists were running on the roof; he was no different from them.
"Woof! Woof!"
On the ground, the black giant dog moved quickly, chasing Luo Zhaoyu, who landed from time to time, shuttling between alleys, corners, and paths.
No matter where Luo Zhaoyu hid, he could be found by it.
With the black giant dog leading the way, others followed easily.
"Woof, woof, woof~!"
The barking of dogs rang out incessantly for a time.
"Damn it! Damn it! Damn it, ah ah ah!"
Luo Zhaoyu’s face was ferocious, his eyes full of hatred.
Running and running, he suddenly turned around and rushed toward the black giant dog.
Hmm?
Chen Kang, the black-faced man chasing on the roof, changed his face and was about to speak……
Swish! Swish! Swish!
Diamond-shaped flying darts suddenly shot through the air.
It was Luo Zhaoyu!
Rushing toward the black giant dog head-on, he threw more than a dozen flying darts, covering the area like a net; with "puff, puff, puff" strange sounds, several blood holes were pierced in the black giant dog’s body.
The black giant dog whined and fell forward, stirring up dust, its blood flowing; the color of the blood that flowed out was pitch black.
Poison!
"Luo Zhaoyu! You are looking for death!!" Chen Kang on the roof had his eyes turn red immediately.
Shh~
Hoo boom!
A muffled sound.
Chen Kang’s body exploded with energy, and his whole person was like an arrow off the string, exploding through the air, landing on top of Luo Zhaoyu’s head.
The snow-white saber light flashed from his waist, drawing a semicircle in mid-air, slashing toward Luo Zhaoyu.
"Clang, clang, clang~!"
The long sword in Luo Zhaoyu’s hand hummed incessantly, blocking the attack.
The two fought into a ball in the narrow alley.
Other Martial Suppression Division guards arrived from behind, spreading out to surround Luo Zhaoyu!
"Luo Zhaoyu is finished."
"He deserves it, actually killing the Martial Suppression Division’s tracking dog."
"No way. If he didn't kill it, he couldn't run, couldn't hide."
"Look over there, is that Guo Jinian from the Guo family? Why is he here."
"Nonsense, Guo Jinian is Guo Jilun’s brother from the same mother, can he not come?"
"……"
On the wall, on the roof, a group of loose martial artists discussed in low voices.
Chen Mu stood on the roof, listening to the conversation, and looked toward Guo Jinian, who was standing on the top of a tree, wearing white tight-fitting clothes, his handsome face gloomy. Between his brows, he did indeed look three-tenths like Guo Jilun.
Guo Jinian, the second young master of the Guo family, Acquired Eighth Layer realm, in his early twenties.
Luo Zhaoyu’s age was also not big, twenty-five or twenty-six, Acquired Seventh Layer cultivation.
In Nanyun Prefecture, both belonged to young and promising geniuses.
However, Chen Kang, who was pestering Luo Zhaoyu, was under thirty, a Copper-Execution Guard of the Martial Suppression Division, Acquired Eighth Layer realm.
In anger, Luo Zhaoyu was no match at all, being beaten back steadily.
One Chen Kang was already like this, and there was Guo Jinian on the side!
"Luo Zhaoyu is finished, he’s dead for sure."
"Alas, what a pity~"
"……"
The discussion followed.
Chen Mu listened, looking from afar without speaking.
The Guo family and the Martial Suppression Division were not something the loose martial artists watching the scene could deal with.
No matter how sympathetic they were to Luo Zhaoyu, at this time, no one would jump out to help.
That was looking for death!
Living well, who wanted to die?
"Boom~"
A muffled, loud sound.
On the ground, Luo Zhaoyu was kicked flying by Chen Kang, crashing into the wall and falling into the ruins.
"Puff!"
Luo Zhaoyu, covered in dust and pale-faced, opened his mouth and spat out a large group of stagnant blood, struggled to get up, half-squatted on the ground, and breathed heavily.
"Originally, you didn't have to die."
Chen Kang released his murderous aura, the Fierce Tiger Saber reflected light, and as he stepped forward step by step, he said coldly, "But you actually dared to kill the tracking dog, then don't blame us, because this is something you brought upon yourself……"
"Pah~!"
Luo Zhaoyu raised his head and spat a mouthful of bloody saliva at Chen Kang, mocking, "Are all you Martial Suppression Division guards so hypocritical and disgusting?"
"Also, since when did the Martial Suppression Division listen to big families? You represent the imperial court! You are the personal guards of the Zhou Emperor! You were actually led around by the nose by a local family; if your superiors knew, would they come over personally and pinch you all to death?"
"You……"
"Luo Zhaoyu!"
Chen Kang was just about to speak when Guo Jinian gave a loud shout, floated down from the top of the tree, and said in a low voice, "No matter how you quibble, killing my Guo family descendant is an indisputable fact! Killing people requires paying with one’s life, today……"
"Pah~!"
Luo Zhaoyu turned his head and spat a mouthful of bloody saliva at Guo Jinian, who was approaching slowly, mocking, "What a 'killing people requires paying with one’s life'; when your Guo family wiped out my Luoyun Martial Arts Hall, why didn't you drink poison yourself to accompany my father and the others in death!"
Before Guo Jinian could speak, Luo Zhaoyu suddenly stood up, mobilized his internal energy, and shouted loudly, "Everyone, martial arts heroes, the Guo family wiped out my Luoyun Martial Arts Hall to rob an Innate martial art!"
"I, Luo Zhaoyu, announce here!"
"Today, whoever can help me escape, escape the city, I will give him this Innate martial art!!"
Innate martial art……
Martial art……
Art……
Luo Zhaoyu’s roar echoed in the air, the sound lingering.
Everyone scattered around, standing on the roof and the wall, couldn't help but widen their eyes, their eyes full of astonishment, realization, excitement, and ecstasy!
Innate martial art!
The Luoyun Martial Arts Hall actually had an Innate martial art?
"No wonder……"
Chen Mu’s heart was also surging, and while surprised, he understood the cause and effect.
He had been wondering why the Luoyun Martial Arts Hall was wiped out for no reason.
It turned out it was for an Innate martial art!
Without Innate strength, yet possessing an Innate martial art, if this news leaked, wouldn't it be coveted by others? Out of greed, they moved to rob it!?
Ordinary gold and silver jewelry, the Guo family didn't look down on.
But an Innate martial art, the Guo family didn't have many either!
……
"Everyone, don't listen to his nonsense!"
After a brief silence, Guo Jinian’s face sank, and he barked, "My Guo family itself has Innate martial arts, so why would we rob others? Luo Zhaoyu is randomly framing my Guo family in order to escape; his heart is punishable! Don't let him……"
Whoosh~!
Before he could finish speaking, an arrow suddenly broke through the air and shot toward Guo Jinian!
