CHAPTER 57: I Want to Report a Case, I Am Wronged!
As the night deepened, worries filled Chu Fourth Master’s mind.
Outside, the night sky was calm, with a gentle breeze blowing.
All was silent!
The midnight watch had already sounded three times.
Suddenly, with a loud bang, the door of the clinic was kicked open, splintering the decrepit wooden door into countless fragments that flew into the air. A hearty laugh followed as six mysterious figures in black masks swaggered in, scanning the crowd with wide eyes, momentarily stunned, then bursting into laughter: “Chu Fourth Master, is this the reinforcements you’ve called?”
Chu Feiyan snorted and said, “Do we need an army to deal with such sneaky characters?”
The leader grinned ominously, “What a tough mouth! Chu Fourth Master, don’t provoke me. Otherwise, while I won’t take your life, a careless move could leave you severely injured… and that won’t be pleasant.”
Chu Yang snorted, “Fourth Uncle, hurry and take Le'er to the room behind.”
While Chu Feiyan was still talking, Chu Le'er had already taken her small steps, pulling herself towards the room.
“Stop them! Kill anyone who isn’t from the Chu Family!” the leading man in black roared.
The ten reinforcements Chu Yang had called surged forward simultaneously, leaping into action without a sound, like ten mutes.
The six masked figures let out sinister laughs as they drew their swords and charged ahead!
To them, these ten people were nothing to worry about!
In just one charge, screams echoed through the air! Out of the ten, six were already injured, blood splattering everywhere as they fell, crying out in pain.
Chu Feiyan anxiously watched from the doorway, ready to jump out, but was held back tightly by Chu Le'er.
Since the appearance of the men in black, Chu Yang had been hiding among the purple bamboo. At this moment, no one noticed that his expression had turned cold and grim, his gaze sharp and merciless.
Standing there was no longer Chu Yang, but the Sword Spirit!
“Chu Feiyan, you really want to use such trash as reinforcements?” the leading man in black shouted triumphantly. Though he ordered the killings, he was wary of it being a trap, so he didn’t go all out, as there might be important figures involved. As long as it didn’t escalate too far, there was still room for negotiation.
He punched and kicked while keeping an eye on his surroundings. If there really was an ambush… Hmph, as long as the Chu Family Ancestral Patriarch doesn’t come, others… even if Chu Feiling shows up, we’ll find a way to escape without leaving any traces…
After waiting for a while without seeing anyone emerge, the man in black laughed loudly: “Chu Feiyan, do you really want your nephew's life gone?”
Just then, a voice filled with palpable anger and boundless killing intent shouted: “Take down these audacious bandits!”
The voice was like thunder, shaking the entire night sky.
Chu Yang smiled inwardly as the Sword Spirit instantly deactivated its mission, returning to the nine calamity space.
The man in black waved his sword, stepping back while looking up, only to see that the rooftops surrounding the small clinic were filled with people, at least twenty or thirty of them! It was a complete encirclement.
Panic surged within him: each of these people's cultivation levels was not low… where did so many experts from the Chu Family come from?
While he was puzzled, footsteps echoed at the broken entrance of the clinic, and two figures slowly walked in through the night.
One had long flowing hair, while the other was bald, seemingly gleaming in the night. Both had cold faces filled with killing intent.
These two were like famous trademarks at Ping Sha Ridge! If anyone saw them and didn’t recognize who they were, it was better for them not to mix in here anymore.
“This is terrible, we’ve fallen into a trap!” the leading masked man’s expression changed drastically behind his mask. He was filled with endless confusion: how did these two appear here?
