The flames roared and burned in the night wind, shaking the light wildly and intensely. When Cheng Lie casually slapped Xi Junyu to the ground and left with his saber, most of the members of the Hundred Saber Alliance in the courtyard already knew that they had been affected by Ou Peng's attitude just now. Today, this ambitious and ruthless person who had been entrenched in Jiangning for a long time was truly enraged.
Speaking of which, the result would probably be the same if he got angry all the time.
A group of people had already rushed out to kill Ou Peng, whose fate was unknown. Battle cries and blood-curdling screams spread throughout the forest. In the courtyard, someone let out a roar and charged at Ma Lin, whose body was already half-stained with blood. Sparks flew everywhere as Ma Lin slashed at him, forcing him to retreat. Under the protection of two servants, Su Tan'er approached her father and Guardian Geng.
"Are you alright, Miss?"
"I'm fine." Su Tan 'er shook her head. "Speaking of which … Uncle Geng, it seems that the bigger the sword, the more powerful it is."
The courtyard was filled with spots of blood. It seemed like Ma Lin, who was surrounded, had no way out. He brandished his saber to avoid the few people who were surrounding him. Blood splattered all over his body, making him look terrifying. Su Tan'er was also pinching the corner of her clothes, but at this time, she had the upper hand. She also wanted to crack a joke to ease the tension in her heart, so she said so. At this moment, in the courtyard, the person who used the sharp knife was inferior to Ma Lin, who used the large knife. Although the steel knife in the hands of this fellow called Ma Lin was swift and fierce, it was still inferior to Cheng Lie's simple and heavy large knife.
On the other side of the arena, Ma Lin yelled "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
"Speaking of which, an ordinary person's weapon wouldn't be able to differentiate this. However, when it reaches a certain size, it's really like what Miss said. Ma Lin's saber skills are very fierce and strange. Just now, when he came in, I almost fell into his trap. However, the blade in Alliance Leader Cheng's hand is so heavy, yet he wields it as if it were light. Every strike of his blade is steady and controlled, and he does not use unconventional methods. Just by looking at the way he wielded his blade with one hand, you can tell that Ma Lin will be defeated in at most three more moves … "
Naturally, Su Tan'er didn't understand this, but she was listening attentively. It was mainly because Ning Yi would occasionally talk about these things at home. Thinking of Ning Yi, she turned her head to look at Xi Junyu who was knocked down to the ground.
He should be killed …
As for how to deal with Xi Junyu, she didn't have a concrete decision yet. As for when and how to kill tonight, she had never been involved in such an intense decision before. It seemed that her father should be the one to make the decision.
After all, humans weren't plants. She still treated Xi Junyu like a teacher and a friend. She was sure that he would die tonight, but since someone else had made the decision, Su Tan'er didn't think about it. Originally, she didn't want Xi Junyu to know about her Husband because if he didn't die, he would be a threat to Ning Yi. Now that he knew, she should kill him as soon as possible. This was the first time she started to consider this matter tonight.
In the middle of the courtyard, the flames of the beacons were piercingly cold. Ma Lin yelled hysterically as he was forced back by the slashes of the saber. Cheng Lie's saber was steady and steady. After a few consecutive slashes, Ma Lin was forced to retreat. Sparks and blood splattered in the air and dust rose from the ground. Ma Lin was forced to retreat, leaving several grooves in the ground. The air was dry and yellow dust flew everywhere.
When Cheng Lie raised his saber, "Ha!" Ma Lin was finally sent flying along with his saber. He crashed into the wall at the back of the courtyard and spat out blood. At the same time, the sounds of fighting on the other side of the wall became louder. A figure borrowed strength from the wall and soared into the sky, brandishing a great spear in his hand. It was Ou Peng, who had been running and fighting along the outer wall of the courtyard, who directly jumped in.
"Old man!"
"No door to hell …"
With a loud bang, the long spear whizzed down. Cheng Lie's beard and hair stood on end as he shouted and raised his saber. The two seemed to be in a stalemate in the air for a moment before they pushed each other away amidst the flying sparks.
"You broke in!"
Cheng Lie took a step back. Ou Peng's attack was originally in the air, but before his legs could touch the ground, he was struck back into the wall behind him. His legs kicked off and he directly pounced towards Cheng Lie. Cheng Lie swung his saber and slashed his figure to the side. He had just landed when the flickering sparks of the saber, which had almost condensed into a golden glow, slashed down like lightning.
With a bang, sparks filled the sky. Both of Ou Peng's feet slid on the ground for three to four meters before he stopped. Dust billowed. At this time, the courtyard was surrounded by Hundred Saber Alliance disciples. Before he could stand firm, he waved his great spear and began to repel the surrounding enemies. When he turned his head, Cheng Lie's saber had already turned into lightning.
Because of Cheng Lie's attack, the Hundred Saber Alliance disciples did not attack together. They only retreated and moved along with the circle of battle. Cheng Lie's saber was heavy and fierce, while Ou Peng was also a tall and strong person. One wielding a saber while the other wielded a saber. From the center of the courtyard, it looked like a huge storm, and the fight was hair-raising.
The sounds of fighting in the forest were still in an intense state. In a short period of time, the people in the courtyard were attracted by the fight. The Hundred Saber Alliance disciples were focused on surrounding Ou Peng and the heavily injured Ma Lin, so they did not notice that the perimeter had moved a few meters in a certain direction. It was also at this time that an intense sound came from the side of the small courtyard, and in the blink of an eye, it approached.
Boom — —
Countless soil embryos and bricks danced in the air. A large cart forcefully crashed into the mud brick wall at the side of the courtyard. Two Hundred Saber Alliance disciples were almost sent flying on the spot, and dust filled the air. This breach happened to be close to where Xi Junyu was. A sturdy figure covered in blood suddenly rushed out of the dust and knocked a nearby Hundred Saber Alliance disciple into the air. He then pulled Xi Junyu up from the ground. Soon after, two more figures rushed in. Outside the breach, the Hundred Saber Alliance disciples surrounded the person pushing the cart and were also engaged in an intense fight. At this time, the Hundred Saber Alliance still had the upper hand. The breach was almost completely blocked, but at least in this short period of time, they managed to save Xi Junyu with a lineup of less than ten people.
Cheng Lie turned his head and took a glance. Everyone in the yard was looking at him. That tall and sturdy man, who was covered in blood, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and smirked. He then threw a heavy steel shovel to the ground.
"Come. Who dares to come! "
Two seconds later, everyone in the courtyard rushed in that direction.
*****
The battle dragged on. At some point, the center of the fight began to press towards the small courtyard, and then towards the small market and fish stalls on the other side of the Ten Steps Slope.
On a small hill not far away, two carriages were parked by the side of the road. A man held a long cylinder and looked towards the Ten Steps Slope.
"Wow, how did it end up like this …"
It seemed that this fight had gathered a lineup of hundreds of people. For the fight to this extent, it was enough to prove that the power behind Xi Junyu was amazing. Originally, he thought that with the power that the Su family could use, it would be like crushing a grasshopper against the small gang behind Xi Junyu. But now it seemed that this grasshopper was not so easy to crush. This matter must have gotten out of hand.
The night was quiet. Roars and battle cries could be heard from there. Occasionally, he would hear some messy things, and Ning Yi would frown … On the other hand, Cheng Lie and the others from the Hundred Saber Alliance were also surprised at the tenacity of this group of foreigners.
Just now in the courtyard, they had already surrounded those people, but in the end, they still forcibly killed their way out. Among this group of people, Ou Peng's ability was very high. For a time, he was actually on par with Cheng Lie. Perhaps they also had people who knew how to arrange their troops. Because when this group of people was surrounded in the center, the people who were fighting in the small forest outside had already begun to rush towards the small courtyard. In the end, they mixed together. The Hundred Saber Alliance had the advantage in numbers, but in the end, they were still killed by a group of people.
However, even if they could be regarded as ferocious dragons that crossed the river, after this group of people rescued Xi Junyu, they still suffered heavy losses. Along the way to the small market at the Ten Steps Slope, they lost many more people. At this time, in the camp that was formed by only twenty people, Ou Peng was in the lead, a huge man with a shovel in his hand was at the back, and Ma Lin, who had already suffered heavy injuries, was in the middle, fighting fiercely with the surrounding members of the Hundred Saber Alliance. Beside Ma Lin, Xi Junyu had also been slashed, and was currently talking to a thin man.
"… Big Brother Jiang, it's my fault this time, I've implicated everyone …"
"When we do things, we must repay kindness, and repay enmity. You have done us a favor, and we were willing to help you back then. Unfortunately, this plan was originally perfect, but now we know that the tables have been turned from the beginning. That Ning Yi is amazing …"
"He's in the dark, and I'm in the light. Since we already know this person, even if we lose this time, we'll just get him back next time …"
At the mention of Ning Yi's name, Xi Junyu also gnashed his teeth, but in reality, he still didn't feel that it was real. However, the person beside him was called Jiang Jing, and he was also a person who was good at scheming. He had participated in the entire plan and arranged the assassination, but at this time, he only laughed coldly.
"Lose? That might not be true … "
"Hmm?"
"In the end, we can always use force to break through! However, this matter has not been decided, let's kill our way out first. Everyone, charge south! "
"Kill!"
At the back of the group, the huge man with the shovel sent a person flying into the sky with a bang. In front, Ou Peng's spear danced like the wind, forcing back four or five members of the Hundred Saber Alliance who were surrounding him. Not far away, Cheng Lie appeared in sight with the Su father and daughter pair, wielding their sabers and rushing over. Ou Peng raised one hand, and a hidden weapon flew towards the Su father and daughter pair, which Cheng Lie blocked with his saber. Ou Peng laughed loudly.
"People of the Su family, listen up. If we can escape today, we will definitely bring our brothers here in the future to slaughter your entire Su family! In order to comfort the souls of our brothers who died today! "
"Haha." In the middle of the group, Ma Lin blocked an attack from someone, "Count me in! Su family's little bitch, remember your Ma family's big brother, haha! "
In a fight, cursing and provoking each other was also a kind of tactic, and this was not the first time such words were said. This group of people were all desperadoes, and with dozens of their brothers dead and injured, they had already thrown caution to the wind. They were not afraid of provoking others to be irrational, and for a moment, there were many curses.
"I will remember your Su family's name …"
"The main thing is that I didn't die today …"
"If you dare …"
Jiang Jing also laughed and shouted, "Tell that Ning Liheng, I will come again in the future, he won't be so lucky …"
"That Su family's little bitch, remember, when I mess with you in the future, I will let your Husband watch from the side …"
A little further away, Su Boyong's hands squeezed the armrests of his wheelchair, making it squeak. Protector Geng had long since walked towards this group of people with a gloomy face. Su Tan 'er knew that they were doing this on purpose, but she was still so angry that her face was flushed red. In any case, this was a Jianghu style of fighting, and it was difficult to surround them like an army. The Hundred Sabers Alliance's line of defense was probably too late to intercept these people's escape route.
At the same time, on the road to the side of the Ten Step Slope, a horse carriage galloped from afar, recklessly rushing into the Hundred Sabers Alliance's loose line of defense.
A figure was pushed out, and a voice shouted, "Stop, who dares to make a move —"
The light on the horse carriage flickered, and the person pushed out of the carriage curtain was a man who was tied up tightly, wearing a scholar's robe. Behind him, several people dressed as Su mansion's servants held steel knives to the man's neck.
The surrounding people from the Hundred Sabers Alliance saw that he was dressed as Su mansion's servants, and for a moment, couldn't figure out which side he was on. Then, the lantern in the carriage was also shaken out. However, this short moment was enough for some observant people to see the scholar's appearance. Jiang Jing glanced at it and suddenly laughed. "Ha, it's a success! Success! Brothers, let's kill them! "
Xi Junyu thought his eyes were playing tricks on him, but the person tied up in the distance was clearly Ning Yi. "Brother Jiang, that's …"
"Ning Yi, haha, that's what I've arranged. When the results of the clan meeting came out, I guessed that you'd been tricked, so I used both methods at the same time … Anyway, it was arranged beforehand, and it's coming in handy now. Capture the hostages and force them to give way!"
The Hundred Sabers Alliance was powerful. Even if they managed to break out of the encirclement, they'd have to face a series of pursuits. How could hostages be more useful. Everyone turned and charged towards the encirclement. The already injured Ma Lin laughed as he charged at the front. "That little bitch from the Su family, I'll let you know what pain is today …"
On this side, Cheng Lie asked Su Boyong and Su Tan 'er what happened. Only Su Boyong answered a few words. The Hundred Sabers Alliance disciples who had surrounded them from afar were also confused. They didn't quite understand what the definition of the Su mansion's servants on the horse carriage was. Seeing this group of people charging inside, everyone maintained their encirclement posture. For a moment, the battle cries near the Ten Steps Slope quietened down slightly.
Su Tan 'er stood there, her heart sinking.
According to her previous training, as a businesswoman, she should maintain her calm. In any situation, she should maintain her calm and think of a way to deal with it. Because even if she panicked, it wouldn't help. If there was a problem, she had to solve it. But at this moment, she almost stopped breathing for a moment.
Her mind went blank. Her body felt as if it had fallen into an icehouse, and her thoughts were frozen.
The horse carriage was blocked and stopped on the slope. The sound of weapons clashing continued. Ma Lin rushed towards the horse carriage like a sharp knife, ready to meet up with the four brothers in the carriage. Finally, the heavy knife sent the last person blocking his way flying. He walked to the side of the dark horse carriage, tilted his head, and looked at Ning Yi, who was tied to the shaft of the carriage. He then tilted his head again and raised his knife downwards. "Stop! Who else dares to surround me and try!"
At this time, Cheng Lie had already learned from Su Boyong how important Ning Yi was. He was far more than just a son-in-law who had married into the family. Under his signal, the disciples who continued to encircle the horse carriage stopped one after another. Jiang Jing stood halfway up the slope with his arms open. "Haha, what can you do? I said, we'll get him back! "
"We can't go on like this. Our losses will only increase." In the distance, Cheng Lie turned his head and said to Su Boyong. A moment later, Su Tan'er suddenly shook her head. "No! No! "
After a moment of breathing, Ou Peng dragged his great spear and walked upwards. Everyone also started to turn and walk in that direction. The distance was less than four to five feet, but because there was not much light, the people above looked like a silhouette. Ma Lin stood beside the horse carriage, and the hostage sat on the shaft of the carriage.
Then, they saw the hostage stand up.
This action was understated, but it was enough to shock everyone. How could a hostage stand up like this? In the dark silhouette, the figure faced the crowd and raised his hand to Ma Lin, who was beside him. A red light flashed in the darkness.
Bang — —
Less than half a meter away, a flame blossomed in the darkness like a blooming flower, enveloping Ma Lin's entire head. His flesh and blood continued to spread in the form of the flame as it spread into the distance.
The figure did not even have time to shake. After the flame faded, he fell straight to the side.
Everyone stopped in their tracks.
The dark figure put down his hand and lowered his head to pull down the rope on his body.
The huge explosion was still spreading and echoing in the night sky for a long time.
"I heard you guys talking about me so happily …" He threw the rope to the side, opened his hand, and said enthusiastically, "So I came!"

Haha, the feeling is back. Surprise ^ _ ^
