"Bastard." The grumpy Luo Heng slammed his palm on the table. "Wen Ya, don't not know what's good for you. You refusoast only to be punished."
"Hehe, Luo Heng, you still like Junior Sister Yan'er? But after all these years, you still haven't even touched her hand! "
"Bastard, shut up." Luo Heng was furious. He pulled out the sword in his hand and a sword light flashed. The middle table was instantly split into two.
Seeing that there was going to be a fight here, many of the guests quickly left in fright. Meanwhile, the owner and waiters of the teahouse both knew Cang Yaner. Due to the princess' identity, they could only hide behind the counter, not daring to move, hoping that they wouldn't ruin the restaurant.
Wen Ya was still sitting upright on his chair, holding a teacup in his hand. Looking down at the shattered teapot, he shook his head helplessly and sighed. "Whaity, whaity it'ot of good tea."
"Hmph, death is at hand. You even have the leisure to do so. Watch my sword." Luo Heng could not take it anymore. The sword beneath his feet released a bright ray of light, aiming straight for his heart.
A cold light flashed across Wen Ya's eyes as he moved his wrist. "Whiz!" With a sound, the teacup flew towards Luo Heng's face with the force of a gust of wind. The latter frowned, raised his sword, and shattered the teacup. At the same time, Wen Ya suddenly stood up from his original position and sent out a gust of sharp wind from his palm towards Luo Heng.
Bang! Luo Heng, who was caught off guard, was pushed back by the impact. Once the battle started, Lian Cheng who was standing beside Cang Yaner also rushed over, and threw a punch at Wen Ya's back. Wen Ya was slightly alarmed and hurriedly turned to the side to receive the palm strike.
Bang! A silent sound echoed in the air. Wen Ya suddenly felt his arm go numb, and a surge of powerful hidden strength surged into his body. Startled, he immediately circulated his martial arts to reduce the impact.
"Hey, Senior Brother Wen Ya, how does my amplification ability feel?" The flirtatious expression on Lian Cheng's face became increasingly thicker.
"Just average! If you can knock me down with a single punch, then I'll have a little respect for you. "
"Hmph. Don't be in sucurry. I will soon fulfill your wish."
Lian Cheng once again flashed in front of his opponent and launched a ruthless attack. The battle maniac Luo Heng also attacked together. Facing the joint attack of two martial cultivation of the same level, Wen Ya's pressure could be easily determined just by thinking about it.
Not far away, Han Chen was still sitting quietly on the window ledge. Compared to the guests who were hiding far away, his actions were very calm.
After a moment of observation, Han Chen realized that Wen Ya's character was a little similar to his. Now think about it, who paid for the rich building's people to kill him? Someone from the Taiqing Sect? Probably not.
Chapter 117 - Conversion
"Berserk Fist!"
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM! Lian Cheng's fist smashed down; a square table of the Eight Immortals was instantly smashed into smithereens. Luo Heng was just like his name, a battle maniac. His sword techniques were ruthless, but they were a bit strong and lacking in agility.
If it were to be said in a single sentence, Luo Heng would probably not be a match for Wen Ya. But with the addition of Lian City, the outcome of the battle wouldn't change. Moreover, Cang Yaner, Yi Shui and the rest were beside them.
"Junior Yan'er, this time it's all thanks to you finding Wen Ya's hiding spot in time." After taking back the Third Elder's things, they returned to the Taiqing Sect. You are the number one contributor, haha. " Yi Shui said with a flattering smile. He had often tried to please the other party.
Cang Yaner nodded politely, "Senior Brother Yi Shui is joking, I just happened to find Wen Ya hiding in Blue City."
"Heh heh, this must be heaven's will! "Who told him to be so stupid? He clearly knows that Junior Yan Er is a Blue Blue City princess, but he still dares to come here." Yi Shui replied.
Cang Yaner laughed, and did not say much more. She then shifted her gaze to where the window was. From the very beginning, she felt that the figure of that person was somewhat familiar.
Han Chen maintained his composure and continued to act likasserby. So what if Cang Yaner suspected him? The two of them had no grudges in the past few days, so she wouldn't do anything to him.
"Wen Ya, stop resisting needlessly and obediently surrender. I'll give you a complete corpse." Lian Cheng was completely confident that he could kill the opponent today.
He formed a fist with one hand and released his innate ability, "Amplification". It seemed as if his entire arm had turned a faint golden color. At the same time, Luo Heng also gathered his strength and attacked. Dense sword shadows intertwined together and rushed towards Wen Ya likide.
No matter how calm Wen Ya was, he frowned at the sight of such a sharp attack from both sides.
"Wen Ya, prepare to die!" Luo Heng's cold smile could not hide his glee.
"Hmph, you think you can kill me? have your senior teach yohing or two today. " Wen Ya's eyes narrowed. His hands quickly formed a seal in front of him and formed a few hand seals.
Buzz! Buzz! A violent wave of energy fluctuations exploded in the air. Wen Ya brought his palms together and opened them once more. Immediately after, a substantial blue ring of light spread out in all directions. Likipple on the water surface, the blue halo directly knocked away Luo Heng's sword shadows.
Lian Cheng's expression changed as his golden fist ruthlessly smashed on the blue halo. Bang! Even a punch that used an Amplification spell was unable to shatter the halo. In front of everyone's astonishment, Lian Cheng was forced back a few steps.
"It's been so long, but the two of you are still so weak?"
Swoosh! As soon as Wen Ya finished speaking, a stream of light accompanied by the sound of rushing wind attacked. A sharp pain spread throughout his body, only to see a long and thin arrow sticking out of his chest.
"You?" Wen Ya's heart trembled, he stared angrily at Yi Shui who was standing beside Cang Yaner. In Yi Shui's hand, he also held a crossbow.
"Heh heh." Yi Shui laughed complacently, his cold eyes revealing his treachery, "Senior Brother Wen Ya, how could you forget about me?"
Lian Cheng, Luo Heng, Cang Yaner and their group also revealed complacent triumphant smiles. With their many years of knowledge from the same sect, they already knew that Wen Ya would be difficult to deal with, so they had already agreed on this matter. First, he would have Lian Cheng and Luo Heng lead each other, and then Yi Shui, who possessed the 'Arrow Hex', to take the opportunity to sneak an attack.
Looking at the "ugly" faces of the crowd, Wen Ya could not help but tremble. "So despicable, you all are truly despicable. I never thought that I, Wen Ya, would die in the hands of you shameless villains today. "
"You can't say that." Cang Yaner slowly walked forward, a sweet smile hung on her pretty face. Senior Brother Wen Ya, we only wanted to restrain you and bring you back to the Taiqing Sect. We didn't have any intention of killing you. "
"Is that so? "Then I really must thank you properly." Wen Ya cursed hatefully.
"Heh." Luo Heng laughed strangely, "Wen Ya, hand the thing over! I will definitely plead for you in front of the Third Elder. "
Wen Ya's face was ashen as he laughed at himself. "Haha, alright! After hiding for so long, I've had enough. It's all because of this thing. I'll just give it to you. "
Wen Ya's trembling right hand slowly extended into his bosom. The eyes of Luo Heng and the others lit up. They glanced at each other and smiled complacently.
Just as Luo Heng was about to go and retrieve the item, Wen Ya's expression hardened. He then pulled ouandful of white powder and waved it towards Luo Heng. In an instant, the air was filled with white dust.
"Damn it, retreat!" Everyone was shocked. Their first reaction was to hold their breath because of the poison in the dust.
"Humph, fell
ow apprentices, farewell."
With that said, Wen Ya used one hand to cover his bleeding wound while flying towards a windowsill. Bang! With a "splatter" sound, he jumped out of the window and disappeared into the distance.
"Bastard, I've been tricked." Luo Heng was so angry that he started to curse loudly. His eyes seemed as if they were about to spew fire.
"Stop cursing, go chase them now." Lian Cheng shouted in a deep voice.
"Let's go." Cang Yaner and her group quickly went downstairs to chase up to Wen Ya.
Seeing that the battle was over, the owner of the teahouse had a bitter face as he sighed. What they didn't notice was that the black-robed man, who had always been a spectator, had vanished at an unknown time.
In a secluded, long, and narrow alley, Wen Ya was fleeing in a hurry. Dark blood flowed continuously from the wound on his chest. His face was as pale as a sheet of white paper.
Would he be able to escape? It was still an unknown number.
But Wen Ya understood that once he was captured and brought back to the Taiqing Sect, only death awaited him. At this moment, Wen Ya suddenly stopped in his tracks. A black-robed figure was reflected in his slightly deep eyes.
"Sure enough, you are here for me." Wen Ya coldly stared at the other party with a strange expression on his face. "Who are you?"
"The person who killed you." Han Chen replied calmly.
"The person who killed me? You aren't from Taiqing Sect? "
"You don't need to know."
"Heh." Wen Ya sneered. "Your strength seems to be at most at the seventh level of the Refinement Stage!"
"So what? It's enough to kill you. "
"I believe that you have the ability to do so. Otherwise, you wouldn't be the first one to catch up to me."
Han Chen did not speak. Instead, he slowly walked towards the other party.
Wen Ya was resigned to his fate, even if he could escape with his severely injured body, he would not be able to dodge Cang Yaner, Lian Cheng and the rest.
When they were less than two meters away from the other party, Han Chen stopped in his tracks, "Do you know who it was that wanted to kill you?"
"Hmm?" Wen Ya was taken aback. "What do you mean?"
"Do you kill the innocent?"
"What?" Wen Ya became increasingly confused. He looked doubtfully at the other and answered with a deep voice, "I, Wen Ya, ask myself in my heart. I have never wrongly killed a good person before. I think you're sent by that kid from the Hou clan! "I really regret not killing that brat that day."
Hou Clan walayboy from a noble family in Blue Blue City. He was very charming and often did despicable things. When Astronomical Edge saw that he was flirting with a woman from a good family on the street, Wen Ya's anger turned him into a cripple. It was also because of that that found out about Wen Ya's whereabouts.
And the task Han Chen accepted from the Wealthy Class House was to kill people from the Hou clan.
"If you want to kill me, then kill me! It's better to die by your hand than by those despicable people's hands. " Facing the approach of death, Wen Ya displayed the steely determination of a man.
Han Chen slightly nodded, and then said, "Go!"
"What did you say?" You won't kill me? " Wen Ya looked at the other party in astonishment.
"I don't like murdering a good person either." Han Chen said indifferently, and turned to leave.
At this moment, Wen Ya's body suddenly shook and a mouthful of thick black blood sprayed out from his mouth. Han Chen was shocked, he immediately went forward to check, "What happened to you?"
Wen Ya's eyes almost popped out of his body as his face turned green. "Arrow! There's poison on the arrow!"
Poison on the arrow? Han Chen frowned, he lowered his head to look at the arrow in front of Wen Ya's chest, the blood that flowed out from his wound had turned black, it was the sign of being poisoned.
After leading him to join the sect, they immediately begged for mercy from the Third Elder. For the sake of the relationship between senior and junior brothers, he wouldn't put anyone to death. It turned out that from the very beginning, they had never thought of letting Wen Ya live.
Even Han Chen could not help but be so angry that his body started to tremble, his two hands held onto the other party's body, who was about to collapse out of shock, "Endure it, I'll bring you to treat it right now."
"There's no need. The poison has already assaulted my heart. I am already powerless to reverse the situation." Wen Ya clearly knew that it was impossible for him to live any longer. His heart was filled with unwillingness and anger, but at the same time, there was also a sliver of relief. You, what are you trying to save me for? Do you have any plans? "
"No plan, only for one purpose." Han Chen answered without hesitation.
"Only for one justice, haha." Wen Ya's eyes reddened, as if he was suffering from immense pain. "Wow! I didn't expect that the person I would meet so casually would be a lot more loyal than my Junior Brothers and Sisters. "Bro, what, what's your name?"
"Han Chen."
"Okay, Brother Han Chen, remember, remember what I said. Hundred Red House, Human Room One, behind the cabinet. "I'll remember." After he said those words intermittently, the veins on Wen Ya's forehead popped out. He forcefully grabbed onto Han Chen's arm, then slowly closed his eyes and swallowed his last breath of air.
"Wen Ya, Wen Ya."
Han Chen heaved a deep sigh of relief, as if he was about to spit out all of the frustration in his heart. In an instant, the enemies and friends were swapped. However, this friend of his would eventually become an eternal regret.
Han Chen quickly organized his emotions, he could not stay here for long. However, he was still a step too late. Just as he was about to leave, Cang Yaner, Lian Cheng and the rest arrived as promised.
Chapter 118 - Mysterious Scrolls
"Who are you?"
Luo Heng shouted as he flashed in front of Han Chen, blocking his path. Lian Cheng, Yi Shui, Cang Yaner and her group quickly surrounded them. After seeing that Wen Ya had died, the few of them looked at each other, then set their gazes uniformly on Han Chen.
"Passing by." Han Chen lowered his voice and said indifferently.
"Passerby?" Luo Heng frowned and laughed coldly, "I saw you sneaking around in the teahouse earlier. In broad daylight, you've tightly wrapped yourself up. Could it be that you do not dare to meet others? "
As he spoke, he took a step forward and reached out to pull Han Chen away, wanting to take off his black robe. But just as he got close, Han Chen's figure moved, like a nimble swimming dragon, he passed Luo Heng in an instant and left in a flash.
"Stinking brat, where are you going?" Luo Heng roared in anger, but before he could give chase … Han Chen increased his speed a few times and disappeared at the end of the alley in the blink of an eye.
Everyone was shocked, especially Luo Heng. His face was filled with astonishment as he said, "This kid is really fast."
Lian Cheng squinted his eyes and coldly glanced in the direction that Yan Han Chen disappeared in, then squatted down on Wen Ya's corpse, searching for something. After checking a few times but to no avail, he couldn't help but curse, "Damn it, that thing isn't on Wen Ya."
"He must have been taken away by that kid. Let's chase after him." Yi Shui quickly said.
"How do we chase them?" We don't even know what he looks like. Now that he has taken off his black robe and swaggered towards us, we don't even know him. "
Everyone looked at each other. They looked at each other. All of a sudden, he feleadache coming on. On the contrary, Cang Yaner's expression did not change, a cold intent surged out from her eyebrows, and her red lips slightly moved. Everyone, don't worry, I know who that person is. "
"What?" "You know?" In Lian Cheng, Luo Heng, and the others' eyes all shone. The hope that had just passed quietly rose.
Hundred Red House.
Han Chen quietly came here, but he did not walk through the main entrance, but
instead climbed over the walls and went in. According to Wen Ya's dying words, he found the number one room. Fortunately, there were no guests staying in this room for the time being.
He entered the room likhief. It was a simple arrangement, including a bed, a table, and a few chairs. It was about the same as an ordinary inn. With a glance, Han Chen saw a small cabinet leaning against the wall, with a few decorative items that looked like glass vases placed on top.
"Behind the cabinet?" Han Chen muttered. He held onto the cabinet with both hands and used a force to move it away.
The wooden cabinet made a low and deep noise as it rubbed against the ground. When the counter was moved away, a slightly protruding brick appeared in Han Chen's line of sight.
Han Chen's eyes focused, he heaved a sigh of relief and went forward to take the brick out. In the hollow of a square, Han Chen reached his hand in and took ouhick and thick scroll.
"This is?" Han Chen's eyes flashed a trace of doubt, the scroll appeared to be deep red, and with curiosity, he slowly opened it.
The next thing that appeared on the scroll waair of eyes. It was an extremely strange pair of eyes, the pupils of which were shaped like ripples. felt as if he was being stared dead at.
The doubt in Han Chen's heart became more and more intense, was this scroll the reason why Wen Ya was being hunted down? What was the secret behind it?
The entire scroll only had a pair of strange eyes, if it wauman's, then so be it! Who would have sucupil? As for whether or not it was some sort of demon beast, Han Chen could not confirm.
"How strange." Han Chen's expression revealed a tinge of seriousness, and suddenly, he did not know if it was because his eyes were blurry or something, but the eyes on the scroll blinked once.
Without any mental preparation, Han Chen almost threw the thing in his hands away. After a violent shudder, he focused his attention on the scroll and saw that everything was exactly the same as before. The corrugated eyes were motionless, as if they wericture drawn on a scroll.
