Chapter 37: Guard Ambush

~7 min read 1,366 words

Everyone in the Ye Clan and Mo Clan knows that Mo Tianheng is powerful, but no one could have imagined that Ye Liuyun is also so strong, actually managing to spar with Mo Tianheng for so many moves!

At this moment Ye Liuyun is gradually suppressed by the surrounding spiritual energy, seemingly about to fall into a disadvantage, when he suddenly lets out a roar, his entire Bloodline Power erupts, instantly breaking through the spiritual energy's obstruction.

At the same time, the artistic conception within his body soars again, his aura becomes even stronger, and his movement speed quickens. He did not expect that his Bloodline also enhances both the conception of his fist technique and his footwork!

Thus the situation flips instantly, turning into Ye Liuyun pressing the fight against Mo Tianheng!

Inside the Chengzhu Fu courtyard, at the canopy of a distant large tree, two men clad in armor watched with great interest.

And their bodies seemed to have completely merged with the Heavenly Earth.

"Genius, these two are definitely rare geniuses! Shi Jiu, hurry back and report to the boss!" one of them urged excitedly.

"Why the rush! I'll watch a bit longer! See if they can display all their strength!" another lazy voice said.

"Indeed! Both of these people are holding back!" the previously speaking man also admitted he was right!

But to their disappointment, after persisting for a while, Mo Tianheng actually stopped.

Ye Liuyun also had to cease, looking at Mo Tianheng in surprise.

"You win! There's no need for us to continue. Even if we used all our abilities, it would only result in a mutual defeat!"

Ye Liuyun nodded at the words; if he used a Spiritual Soul Attack, he wasn't sure whether it would leave aftereffects on Mo Tianheng.

And Mo Tianheng, evidently, also had his own Trump Card.

"Alright! I hope we have a chance to fight again in the future!" Ye Liuyun said, clasping his fists.

Mo Tianheng also clasped his fists in respect. He then sent a Transmission Voice to Ye Liuyun: "After this martial contest, I'm leaving Fengyang City! The world outside is vast; we will certainly meet again in the future! Take care!"

Ye Liuyun immediately sent a Transmission Voice back: "Then we'll meet in the world beyond! Take care!"

The two exchanged a smile and walked down from the arena together.

【9】 "It's over? And Ye Liuyun took first place!"

Finished? Ye Liuyun actually took first!

"It seems both of them didn't use their full strength, still holding back?"

"Heavens! They still have stamina! Fighting like this and still holding back? I couldn't even see how they were fighting!"

The crowd below debated loudly. Yet no one dared to question Ye Liuyun's first-place ranking.

Liang Xue's expression when looking at Ye Liuyun became even more astonished.

"This guy! He's become stronger! Even weapons are useless!"

She wouldn't argue with Ye Liuyun over any ranking! She was originally just there to watch. She heard Ye Liuyun was coming, so she came to join the fun.

Thus, the rankings for this martial contest are: first, Ye Liuyun; second, Mo Tianheng; third, Ye Tianci; fourth, Mo Tianli.

They are called the Four Great Talents of Fengyang City by these younger disciples.

As for Qin Ziyan, she doesn't dare to challenge any of the four!

She wanted to challenge Ye Mingzhen, but felt it was meaningless, and she didn't have a guaranteed victory. If she lost again, it would be even more humiliating!

This martial contest concluded after Ye Liuyun and Mo Tianheng determined the winner.

Ye Liuyun lived up to expectations, securing first place for his clan and also winning the right to host the next martial contest.

As soon as the contest ended, someone immediately reported the results to the Ye Clan!

The Ye Clan's Clan Chief and Elders were waiting for news in the council hall. Upon learning the news, they felt greatly gratified.

At the same time they felt anger and regret toward Ye Qingyun.

The two men in armor far away also revealed their forms.

"Alas! What a pity! Both of those guys have a hidden move! It's not satisfying to watch!" the lazy-voiced man said.

When the two revealed themselves, they were immediately spotted by the white-haired elder of the Qin Clan.

"Who are these people, daring to break into the Chengzhu Fu!" the elder roared, lunging at the two.

"Huh, this old thing is quite alert!" the lazy-voiced man laughed: "Don't worry, let me move too! I see those two kids are getting their blood boiling!"

Saying that, he also sprinted over and met the white-haired elder with a palm strike.

"Boom"—the white-haired elder was blasted away, his arm going limp!

"Who are you really? Even if you're masters, don't think you can leave the Chengzhu Fu easily!" the elder said, a whistle sounding from his mouth.

Immediately, many Black-clothed Guards appeared around, surrounding the two.

"Shi Jiu, stop messing around! We have official business to attend to," one of the armored men said.

Thus, the man known as Shi Jiu raised the Token in his hand toward the white-haired elder. "Damn! If it weren't for the master still having official business and not wanting to waste time here, you think you scum can stop us?"

"Tianyun Royal Mansion! Are you the Golden Armor Guard of Tianyun Royal Mansion?" the white-haired elder asked tremblingly.

"We are the Tianyun Royal Mansion Hall Guard, passing through Fengyang City; aren't you all moving aside quickly?" the armored man threatened.

"Yes! Withdraw!" the white-haired elder hurriedly ordered. The Hall Guard of Tianyun Royal Mansion is a higher rank than the Golden Armor Guard; he dared not be negligent.

Just from the overwhelming aura and the power they displayed, the elder knew these two were genuine Hall Guards, not impostors like Ye Qingyun.

The two armored men didn't linger; with a flash of movement they exited the city gate, disappearing from sight.

The white-haired elder thought it over, concluding the two were just passing through. A small place like Fengyang City can't attract such important figures.

So he hurriedly gathered guards and pursued in the directions of the Ye Clan and Mo Clan, to ambush Ye Liuyun and Mo Tianheng.

The talent and strength these two displayed today were enough to threaten the Qin Clan's position. Even at the risk of exposure, they must be eliminated.

Anyway, the identities of these guards are untraceable. Even if discovered, they would die rather than admit, and no one could do anything with them.

And he himself also rushed toward Ye Liuyun's direction.

This was the plan they had set earlier. Once the first place was taken by someone else, he would personally act against the winner.

Although he had just been injured and could only exert half his strength, with his True Yuan Fifth Tier level, dealing with a junior of the Refining Body realm should still be more than sufficient.

The Ye Clan and Mo Clan never expected the Qin Clan to gamble so recklessly, daring to openly ambush them. Hence they were not in a hurry to set off.

Moreover, each side had two Elders of True Origin Triple escorting them, completely unaware of the approaching danger.

Especially on Ye Liuyun's side. One Elder, unable to wait to bring the good news back to the clan, left immediately after the contest ended.

Fortunately, Liang Xue was following Ye Liuyun; their side's combat strength wasn't too bad either.

Ye Liuyun was chatting and laughing with others as they walked back, when suddenly his expression changed drastically.

"Everyone, run fast! We've been spotted by the Chengzhu Fu's guards!" Ye Liuyun, having come into contact with the guards before and knowing something about their concealed movement techniques, was the first to notice.

"How come I didn't sense anything?" The elder accompanying them released his Divine Sense, yet detected nothing.

"Hurry up and leave before they form an encirclement!" Ye Liuyun urged.

Everyone also preferred to believe it was true, and they all spurred their horses on, rushing along.

Sure enough, seeing them speed up, the guards no longer bothered to encircle them and gave chase directly.
