Chapter 104: A Trap Beyond a Trap
"Damn it, so fast!" Upon hearing this, A Qiang immediately ran into the dungeon, grabbed Liang Ru by the hair, and dragged her out: "You lot, keep a close watch here!"
Having said that, A Qiang hauled Liang Ru away and flew toward the City Lord Mansion.
"Senior Sister!" Seeing A Qiang fly off with Liang Ru in his grasp, Yin Ningyu nervously grabbed Jiang Xun's arm.
"Now is not the time to worry about her; save the group with more people first," Jiang Xun said, reaching back to hold Yin Ningyu's hand.
"But..."
"Listen to me." Jiang Xun gently squeezed Yin Ningyu's hand.
"O... okay." Yin Ningyu looked into Jiang Xun's eyes, struggled for a moment, and then nodded.
"Let's go." Seeing that A Qiang had already gone far away, Jiang Xun pulled Yin Ningyu and flew into the city, charging straight toward the dungeon.
"It's the Hehuan Young Master!" the disciples at the entrance shouted upon seeing them, and two disciples charged at Jiang Xun with blades in hand.
Yet, the two of them were merely Foundation Establishment disciples.
Jiang Xun flicked his sleeve, and the two were blasted away, crashing into pillars and dying on the spot as they vomited blood.
Yin Ningyu also charged directly into the dungeon, engaging two Golden Core disciples; she did not fall behind in the slightest, fighting two opponents at once.
Another Foundation Establishment disciple saw this and tried to launch a sneak attack from the side, but how could Jiang Xun give him such an opportunity? He threw his folding fan, and the man was sliced in two.
At the same time, Jiang Xun lunged forward and kicked a Golden Core disciple in the waist, sending him flying five meters away to crash against the dungeon door.
"Senior Sister!" The Baihua Sect disciples in the dungeon heard the commotion and looked out one after another; discovering that it was Yin Ningyu who had come, they exclaimed in surprise.
"Move aside!" Hearing their voices, Yin Ningyu exerted more force, twisted her sword in a flourish, disarmed the Golden Core disciple before her, and thrust her sword toward his dantian.
This disciple reacted quickly, hurriedly performing a backflip to dodge Yin Ningyu's attack.
But Yin Ningyu was already prepared; as he backflipped, two vine gates erupted from the ground, piercing his body and shattering his Golden Core.
"Go save them," Jiang Xun said to Yin Ningyu while blocking another Golden Core disciple.
"Alright." Yin Ningyu nodded and ran toward Ren Yu and the others.
"Damn it, stop!" The Golden Core disciple facing Jiang Xun saw this and hurriedly charged at Yin Ningyu with his blade.
Yin Ningyu did not look back; Jiang Xun flashed behind her and kicked the disciple back again.
The Golden Core disciple's back hit the dungeon door, and he lunged forward again to chase Yin Ningyu.
Jiang Xun kicked him back once more.
"Are you done yet?" Jiang Xun looked at the man and smiled.
"Are you done yet?" the man retorted, then jumped up with a ferocious look and slashed his blade toward Jiang Xun's head.
Jiang Xun dodged to the side and kicked the man back to his original spot: "You're like a rubber ball," Jiang Xun laughed.
"A gentleman can be killed but not humiliated!" The man was even angrier upon hearing this and prepared to self-destruct.
Seeing this, Jiang Xun drew a long sword and stabbed directly into his Golden Core, finishing him off before he could act.
Over on Yin Ningyu's side, she had released the Baihua Sect members from the dungeon, and they walked out limping, supporting one another.
"Let's go quickly; they should realize what's happening over there soon."
Seeing this, Jiang Xun stepped forward to help Yin Ningyu support two of the Baihua Sect disciples.
Seeing that the person before them was the Hehuan Young Master, the Baihua Sect members were also filled with astonishment.
"Don't worry, he is here to help us; let's go quickly," Yin Ningyu said, looking at them.
"Senior Sister, Senior Sister Liang was taken away by them," Ren Yu said, walking over while leaning against the wall from behind; her injuries were among the lightest of the group.
"I know, let's get out of here first."
Yin Ningyu looked back at Ren Yu and said, but she truly had no hands left to support her.
"I'll carry you," Jiang Xun said, looking at Ren Yu.
"No need!" Ren Yu refused flatly; the memory of how he had almost let Shen Yue kill her was still fresh in her mind.
"Ren Yu, now is not the time to be temperamental, hurry up," Yin Ningyu said sternly, looking at Ren Yu.
"..." Ren Yu heard this and, unwillingly, came behind Jiang Xun and let him carry her on his back, after which the three of them left the dungeon quickly.
But the moment they stepped outside, they were stunned.
"Oh, isn't this the Hehuan Young Master? Surrounded by beauties, I see."
The leader was none other than Alin.
"You came fast enough." Seeing this, Jiang Xun set down Ren Yu and the other two Baihua Sect disciples he was holding.
Before them were three Nascent Soul cultivators, four Golden Core cultivators, and five Foundation Establishment cultivators.
It was all the disciples of their Tianwu Sect.
"Surrender immediately, or I'll crush her to death!"
A Qiang grabbed Liang Ru by the neck and lifted her up.
"Senior Sister!" Yin Ningyu shouted upon seeing this.
"Senior Sister, our Spirit Power has all been sealed, we have no ability to fight, you all should leave quickly!" Ren Yu said, sitting on the ground and looking at Yin Ningyu.
"Leave? Can you leave? We have already set up a Formation all around here; today, not even a mosquito will fly out!" A Liang shouted, looking at Ren Yu.
"Yin Ningyu, oh Yin Ningyu." Jiang Xun was not anxious upon hearing this; instead, he smiled: "What was I even aiming for?"
"I'm sorry..." Yin Ningyu looked at Jiang Xun upon hearing this, her heart filled with apology; if not for her, Jiang Xun would likely already be on the ship back to the Lingerie-Sect.
"Attack!" Alin did not waste words and waved his hand, shouting.
A Liang immediately charged toward Yin Ningyu and threw a punch at her abdomen.
Seeing this, Yin Ningyu immediately raised her sword to block.
"You dare to block?" Seeing this, A Qiang exerted more force with the hand gripping Liang Ru's neck.
Liang Ru's face turned deep red, and she could not speak.
Seeing this, Yin Ningyu silently lowered the long sword in her hand and closed her eyes.
Seeing this, A Liang curled the corners of his mouth and struck Yin Ningyu with even greater force, determined to cripple Yin Ningyu with a single punch.
Bang!
At this very moment, Jiang Xun held a folding fan to block in front of Yin Ningyu, but he was knocked back five steps by A Liang's punch; his Qi and blood surged, he spat out a mouthful of blood, and he half-knelt beside Yin Ningyu.
"Jiang Xun!" Seeing this, Yin Ningyu hurriedly ran to Jiang Xun's side to support him.
"Are you stupid?" Jiang Xun looked at Yin Ningyu, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and said.
"You're the stupid one! Why did you block it?" Yin Ningyu said with reddened eyes.
"If you don't resist, do you think they would have let Liang Ru go?" Jiang Xun looked at Yin Ningyu with an expression as if looking at a fool: "At a time like this, of course you have to resist; even if you die, isn't that better than being captured?"
"A Qiang." Seeing this, Alin frowned and looked at A Qiang.
A Qiang understood, immediately dropped Liang Ru from his hands, and then rushed toward Jiang Xun and Yin Ningyu together with A Liang.
Seeing this, Yin Ningyu hurriedly used vines to defend, but these two were simply not people that Yin Ningyu's vines could stop, and they were directly hacked into pieces by A Qiang's blades.
Subsequently, Jiang Xun also slashed out several Wind Blades, which were likewise easily shattered by A Qiang with a single slash.
A Liang rushed out from behind A Qiang and struck a palm toward Yin Ningyu again.
