Chapter 121: The Li Family's Many Experts

~6 min read 1,156 words

"Of course he doesn't just have one person; he has me too!" A voice suddenly appeared. I was overjoyed; the person who arrived was none other than Zhang Yinuo.

Seeing Zhang Yinuo, Li Hong's face turned livid. He cursed in anger, "That trash Liu Hengdao is truly useless! Damn it, I gave him so many people and so many experts, and they still couldn't keep you!"

Zhang Yinuo remained calm, standing there, and said coldly, "Li Hong, you've done so many wrong things. It's not too late to turn back now, otherwise, you definitely won't have a good ending!"

"Hmph, I don't need you to lecture me. Since you're all here, it saves me the trouble of finding you one by one. I'll just wipe you all out at once!" Li Hong chuckled.

After saying this, Li Hong signaled to the people around him: "All of you, attack together!"

The people around Li Hong all rushed forward. Seeing this, I hurriedly said to Feng Yi, "Take Third Brother and go first. We can handle this here!"

Hearing my words, Feng Yi looked at us and then at the incoming people, saying worriedly, "They've brought quite a few experts. Are you sure you can handle it?"

No one answered him. Zhang Yinuo and I were both watching the people charging toward us. After looking, Zhang Yinuo turned to me and said, "Don't touch the two in the very center; leave them to me. You handle the others!"

Hearing Zhang Yinuo's words, I nodded without saying anything. Zhang Yinuo had likely gauged the opponent's strength; I definitely couldn't handle those two in the middle, so it was natural for her to deal with them. As for the others, even if I couldn't beat them, I could stall them for a while. Once Feng Yi left, it would be much simpler for us to escape.

Zhang Yinuo let out a cold snort, then struck out with both palms, forcing the two people in the middle to retreat a step. The two opponents looked at Zhang Yinuo in disbelief; they probably hadn't expected her to be so powerful.

Feng Yi was also startled by this and couldn't help but say, "Holy crap, so fierce!"

"What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and take him away!" I shouted at Feng Yi behind me.

Hearing my words, Feng Yi felt relieved and hurriedly carried Third Brother away. With Feng Yi's skills, these ordinary experts couldn't stop him, and since the two stronger ones were being held off by Zhang Yinuo, Feng Yi escaped quite easily.

Seeing Feng Yi about to get away, Li Hong became anxious and hurriedly shouted at his men, "What are you doing? They're about to escape! Stop them!"

However, it was to no avail. He could only watch helplessly as Feng Yi left. Li Hong cursed at his men in anger, "What are you doing? Hurry up and attack! Why are you so useless?"

The people around, hearing Li Hong's words, charged forward like madmen. Excluding the two Zhang Yinuo was dealing with, there were about four or five others left. I found it very strenuous to deal with them; after all, these guys weren't rookies. However, they basically had no techniques; they were likely created by potions rather than being true cultivation experts, otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to hold on this long.

Seeing that Feng Yi had disappeared, I hurriedly said to Zhang Yinuo, "They've gone, let's retreat!"

Hearing my words, Zhang Yinuo nodded, and we began to fight while retreating.

Li Hong naturally saw that we were trying to run and hurriedly shouted at the people around him in anger, "Hurry! Stop them! They're trying to escape! If you let them get away, you'll all die!"

The people around us rushed up like madmen. Especially the ones I was dealing with—they felt no pain. No matter how I attacked them, they didn't react unless I killed them. But after all, they were human lives, and I couldn't bring myself to be that cruel. However, this resulted in me sustaining more and more injuries.

At this moment, Zhang Yinuo frowned, looked at the situation, leaped into the air, and in the next instant, flashed to Li Hong's side. She grabbed his throat with one hand and shouted, "All of you, stop!"

Li Hong's men were terrified and hurriedly stopped. Zhang Yinuo looked stern and said to Li Hong, "If you don't want to die, tell them all to back off!"

However, Li Hong didn't seem to care at all. After a moment, he said, "You dare kill me? I'm right here. If you want to kill me, do you dare?"

Hearing this, Zhang Yinuo's eyes turned cold, and she tightened her grip. Li Hong struggled painfully, feeling as if he were suffocating. Just as it seemed Li Hong was about to die, Zhang Yinuo suddenly let go and said coldly, "Do you want to see if I dare?"

Li Hong coughed and gasped for air, in extreme pain. The people around, seeing this, didn't dare to step forward.

"Yang Yun, come over here, behind me!" Zhang Yinuo shouted to me.

I hurriedly ran over and stood behind Zhang Yinuo. No one dared to stop me.

Finally, Li Hong seemed to recover. Then, Zhang Yinuo said to me again, "Follow me!"

After saying this, Zhang Yinuo held Li Hong and slowly retreated. I followed by her side. However, Li Hong's men followed closely. Zhang Yinuo grabbed Li Hong's throat again and shouted, "Tell your people not to follow, or I'll kill you right now!"

Li Hong, hearing this, hurriedly shouted to his men, "Don't follow! Don't follow!"

However, two or three of them were still moving forward. Seeing this, Zhang Yinuo frowned, looking angry, and grabbed Li Hong's throat again, shouting, "I see you don't learn your lesson. Since that's the case, don't blame me!"

"Don't, don't, don't! All of you, back off! Don't follow! What are you doing?" Li Hong was terrified and shouted in a panic.

Sure enough, this move by Zhang Yinuo stopped the others from pursuing. When we reached the intersection, Zhang Yinuo looked around, felt it was safe, and said to me, "Let's go!"

"Wait, I have something to ask him!" I said hurriedly.

"Let's go, it'll be too late if we don't. The Li family's experts will definitely arrive one after another. We can't delay any longer!" Zhang Yinuo ignored my request, grabbed me, and ran, leaving Li Hong behind.

However, after we left, I saw many people arriving at the intersection. It looked like they were indeed Li family members. It was fortunate we left quickly, but it was a pity we didn't get any news about Liu Shuang. I had wanted to take advantage of having Li Hong in our hands to find out his whereabouts, but it seemed I would have to wait until later.
