More than twenty Jianyou Sect ancient martial art practitioners had appeared at once, and there were seven or eight Embryonic Breathing realm ancient martial art practitioners. The one-eyed man leading them was obviously at the pinnacle of the Embryonic Breathing realm.
He blocked in front of the two of them. Zou Guangbo and Chen Zi's expressions immediately changed. At this moment, the two of them were injured. One pinnacle of the Embryonic Breathing realm ancient martial art practitioner was already difficult for them to handle, let alone so many ancient martial art practitioners surrounding them.
"Young Mistress Chen, we have finally blocked you. I think you should just surrender and stop wasting your efforts," the one-eyed man said with a cold smile.
One-eyed Dragon sneered. In order to stop Chen Zi and Zou Guangbo, he had put in a lot of effort and even deliberately let them run a little further. It was to catch a turtle in a jar, unable to escape even if it had wings.
Once he captured Chen Zi, the Lord Mayor would reward him handsomely. Thinking of this, the one-eyed man couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Li Shuncai, you despicable person.
Zou Guangbo gritted his teeth in hatred. Before this, he had been injured by Li Shuncai. He had thought that Li Shuncai was also injured, and his injuries were even more serious than his. However, from the looks of it now, Li Shuncai wasn't seriously injured at all. He was only pretending to be injured, pretending to be weak, and then waiting for help to come.
"What despicable person? That is called a scheme, you know? You are the one who is retarded, yet you are blaming others. "
Li Shuncai laughed coldly. He was indeed injured, but it wasn't as serious as Zou Guangbo had imagined. That was why he could follow Chen Zi and Zou Guangbo all the way without them noticing.
"Go, capture the two of them for me."
Li Shuncai looked at Zou Guangbo coldly. He didn't make a move immediately, because he knew that Zou Guangbo was also at the pinnacle of the Embryonic Breathing realm. Although he was injured, if he wasn't afraid of death and tried to take him down with him, Li Shuncai definitely wouldn't be able to take it.
That was why, even though he wasn't seriously injured, he still let Zou Guangbo and Chen Zi go. It was so that he could wait for help to come and capture Chen Zi without fail.
The surrounding Jianyou Sect ancient martial art practitioners looked at each other, then looked at Zou Guangbo, who was in a sorry state. They gritted their teeth and could only bite the bullet.
Li Shuncai clearly intended to use them as cannon fodder. Anyone could see that Zou Guangbo was not someone to be trifled with. If they forced him into a dead end, the price they would have to pay would be huge. However, Li Shuncai's cultivation was higher than theirs, and his status was naturally higher as well. If they disobeyed his orders, the consequences would be severe, and they would inevitably encounter all sorts of difficulties from Li Shuncai in the future.
Therefore, he might as well take the risk now. If he could successfully take down Chen Zi, it would be a great achievement.
Seven or eight Embryonic Breathing realm ancient martial art practitioners rushed forward and surrounded Zou Guangbo, immediately exchanging blows. With seven people against one person, Zou Guangbo's combat power was immediately scattered, and the battle was almost one-sided from the start.
As for Li Shuncai, he had been staring at Chen Zi the entire time, preventing her from escaping. Chen Zi was the target of this trip. In comparison, Zou Guangbo was just an insignificant character.
Not only was he interested in Chen Zi, but he was also interested in the Phantom Wolf Cat on her shoulder. It was a Level Six monstrous beast. Even the Young Sect Leader of the Jianyou Sect was interested in it. Naturally, he was even more interested in it.
"Miss Chen, I don't want to be rough with you. You'd better be sensible and come with me obediently. Don't worry, the Lord of the City has ordered that no one can hurt you. "
Li Shuncai said calmly. He was worried that Chen Zi would commit suicide in despair, so he didn't attack her immediately. She had the Phantom Wolf Cat by her side. If she wanted to commit suicide, he wouldn't be able to stop her.
"Capture me to threaten the Intentionless Sect? Dream on. "
Chen Zi laughed coldly. She would rather die than fall into the hands of the people of the Jianyou Sect. She knew that she could only be used to threaten her father. This was also the reason why the Jianyou Sect wanted to capture her no matter what.
The Intentionless Sect had been in charge of the Intentionless City for hundreds of years. Even if they had lost the intermediate stage Golden Elixir realm strong practitioner, it would not be easy for the Sacred Flame Sect to destroy the Intentionless Sect. For half a month, the Sacred Flame Sect had not conquered the Intentionless City.
"You refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit."
Li Shuncai's face darkened. He was most afraid that Chen Zi would commit suicide, so Chen Zi's words immediately made him anxious.
He rolled his eyes a few times, trying to think of a good plan to capture Chen Zi without harming her.
However, Chen Zi ignored Li Shuncai. She looked at Zou Guangbo, who was surrounded by danger and had more and more wounds on his body. A glint of sadness flashed in her eyes. Was there still no way to change things?
She decisively pulled out her long sword and placed it on her neck.
"Wait! Let's talk this out. "
Li Shuncai was shocked. He didn't think that Chen Zi would be so decisive. Was she really not afraid of death?
"Miss Chen Zi, let's talk this out. Put down your sword. Think about it, if you die, you won't be able to see your family again. Moreover, if your family knew of your death, how sad would they be? "
Li Shuncai waved his hands continuously. His face was pale with fear. If he forced Chen Zi to die, the Lord Mayor would definitely skin him alive and pull out his tendons.
"Let Uncle Zou go."
Chen Zi gripped her long sword tightly and stared at Li Shuncai without blinking. Li Shuncai couldn't find a chance to stop her at all.
"Alright … let him go. If you don't kill yourself, I will let him go immediately …"
Li Shuncai nodded his head continuously. Zou Guangbo was just an unimportant person. If he was let go, then so be it. There was no point in killing him or not killing him.
"Put down your sword and I will let him go immediately."
Li Shuncai took a deep breath and stared at Chen Zi. In his heart, he was thinking about the success rate of him making a move the moment Chen Zi put down her long sword.
"Let him go!"
Chen Zi said coldly. She didn't care about Li Shuncai's conditions at all. The long sword in her hand moved slightly towards her snow-white neck. A line of blood immediately appeared. Dark red blood flowed along the blade and dripped down from the tip of the sword.
"You …"
Li Shuncai's expression changed slightly. Chen Zi actually used her life to threaten him. He had never felt so wronged before.
However, at this moment, he didn't dare to do anything to provoke Chen Zi. If Chen Zi died, he reckoned that he wouldn't have a good ending either.
"Let him go."
Li Shuncai held his breath and said fiercely.
The ancient martial art practitioners from Jianyou Sect who were surrounding Zou Guangbo looked at each other and could only retreat from the battle. However, they were cursing in their hearts. Li Shuncai was unhappy. What right did he have to shout at them!
"Missy, you …"
Zou Guangbo escaped from the killing trap and slowly heaved a sigh of relief. In the blink of an eye, Chen Zi's long sword was pressed against his throat. His expression immediately changed.
"Uncle Zou, please take Little Meow and leave immediately."
Chen Zi bit her lips and stared at Li Shuncai. At this moment, the only thing she could rely on was her own life.
Little Meow was the name Chen Zi had given to the Phantom Wolf Cat. Although it didn't sound like a meow, Chen Zi still said that she was happy to call it that.
"Missy, I …"
Zou Guangbo didn't think that things would turn out like this. He would rather die in battle than escape now.
"Uncle Zou, we have no other choice. No matter what, I can't fall into their hands. You should understand." Chen Zi was very calm. At this moment, she was surprisingly calm. Since she couldn't escape, she could only die.
Zou Guangbo's lips twitched. His eyes were red and he clenched his fists tightly, but he couldn't say anything.
"Uncle Zou, we don't have much time to waste," Chen Zi urged.
Once the ancient martial art practitioners from Jianyou Sect surrounded the forest, Zou Guangbo wouldn't be able to escape.
"Missy, I'm useless …"
Zou Guangbo clenched his teeth. He carried the Phantom Wolf Cat on Chen Zi's shoulder and left in a flash. He knew that if he didn't leave now, it would only make the Missy feel worse. It didn't matter if he lived or died, but he knew that the Missy loved the Phantom Wolf Cat very much and didn't want it to fall into the hands of Jianyou Sect.
Li Shuncai gritted his teeth. His eyes seemed to be spitting fire, but he could only watch as Zou Guangbo escaped.
The Phantom Wolf Cat was a rare Sixth rank monstrous beast. His heart was bleeding.
Then, an unexpected scene happened. The Phantom Wolf Cat actually broke free from Zou Guangbo and turned into a black light. It returned to Chen Zi's side and continued to lie on her shoulder. A pair of green eyes stared at Li Shuncai, as if it was looking at a mortal enemy.
"Little Meow."
Chen Zi looked at the Phantom Wolf Cat on her shoulder. She felt a lump in her throat. She didn't think that Little Meow would return to her side at this moment. Originally, she thought that the Phantom Wolf Cat was only willing to stay by her side because of Mo Wen's order.
Zou Guangbo laughed bitterly and walked back. He looked at Chen Zi helplessly and spread out his hands. The Phantom Wolf Cat's speed was shocking. He couldn't stop it even if he wanted to.
"What a touching scene. Since both of you don't want to leave, why don't you stay together?"
A strange silhouette came from the depths of the forest. The voice was so hoarse that it didn't sound like a human. Instead, it sounded like the squeaking of a wild beast. However, one could understand what it meant.
A person shrouded in a black robe walked out from the forest behind them. His face couldn't be seen, but his bare hands were as dry as tree bark.
"Lord Luo Shan."
A glint of joy flashed in Li Shuncai's eyes. He respectfully bowed to the person in the black robe and knelt on one knee. He was extremely serious.
At the same time, he felt a lot more at ease. With Lord Luo Shan here, he didn't believe that Chen Zi had the ability to commit suicide.
"Who are you?"
A glint of vigilance flashed in Chen Zi's eyes. This mysterious person in the black robe made her feel uneasy.
"Young Mistress Chen, as the Young Mistress of Intentionless Sect, you actually don't recognize me?"
The figure of the person in the black robe flashed and had already appeared in front of Chen Zi. Everything was silent and untraceable. It was as if he had appeared out of thin air.
"An ancient martial art practitioner with the Golden Elixir realm!"
Zou Guangbo's eyes narrowed and his face turned pale. Only an ancient martial art practitioner with the Golden Elixir realm had such an ability to appear five meters away from him without him noticing.
"Luo Shan! Could it be that you are the thirteenth elder of Sacred Flame Sect, Luo Shan? "
Zou Guangbo suddenly thought of something and immediately cried out in shock. Previously, Xu Zhong of Jianyou Sect had cooperated with Elder Luo Shan of Sacred Flame Sect to come to Panli City. They had injured the original Mayor of Panli City and chased him away. He had thought that Luo Shan had already left Panli City. He didn't expect him to appear at this time. (To be continued.)
