Chapter 370 A Battle of Life and Death



Chapter 370 A Battle of Life and Death

Han Yue couldn't help but turn his head to look at Chen Dao, and was deeply shocked!

As a peak sixth-rank martial artist, it might not be difficult for him to kill the Wang family retainers on the city wall and the Wang family warriors on the watchtower, but he could never kill them so silently that they couldn't even make a sound...

This shows just how terrifying Xiaoyuan is!

"Well done!"

A flicker of excitement flashed in Zheng Qing's eyes, and he was equally shocked. However, he knew very well that this was not the time to talk about such things, and immediately issued an order: "Everyone, follow me to infiltrate the Wang family manor."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zheng Qing took the lead and ran towards the Wang family manor, trying to keep his footsteps as quiet as possible.

At the same time, Chen Dao, Han Yue, and a group of martial artists followed suit.

Soon, the group used their strength to leap onto the city wall and saw one after another the corpses of Wang's retainers lying on the ground with their throats ruptured.

"All of them were fatal with a single blow. Young friend Chen's pet is truly terrifying!"

Han Yue exclaimed in a low voice.

At this moment, Xiao Yuan returned to the top of the city wall, her small body leaping up and landing on Chen Dao's shoulder.

Upon seeing this adorable little animal, everyone's expressions changed.

Before this, who could have imagined that such a seemingly harmless little beast would display such terrifying strength?

In less than a quarter of an hour, they killed more than a dozen of the Wang family's retainers, leaving them unable to utter a sound. This was absolutely terrifying!

Zheng Qing withdrew his shocked gaze from Xiao Yuan and said, "Let's split up and try to find and kill the Wang family's martial artists first, without making a scene."

"Yes."

The crowd responded in unison, and Zheng Qing led them down the city wall. Under the cover of night, they sneaked into the houses to find the Wang family's warriors and carry out a decapitation operation.

The manor was completely silent at this moment. Martial artists have extremely sharp hearing, and everyone could tell which room had a martial artist just by the rhythm of their breathing.

Chen Dao stood outside a house without making any move, while Xiao Yuan silently transformed into a blur and slipped into the house. In no time, a muffled groan came from inside.

Inside the house, the martial artist, who was asleep, was killed by Xiaoyuan.

Afterwards, Chen Dao continued to lead Xiao Yuan to the next house, killing one Wang family martial artist after another in their sleep.

Meanwhile, Zheng Qing, Han Yue, and the others were not idle either. They split up and silently infiltrated the houses to find out the whereabouts of the Wang family's martial artists.

A quarter of an hour later, Zheng Qing and Chen Dao met again, and Zheng Qing asked, "Young friend Chen, how many Wang family martial artists did you kill?"

"10."

Chen Dao replied that killing the Wang family warriors was not difficult, but the Wang family manor was very large, and searching for the warriors took him a lot of time.

"I killed eight of them."

Zheng Qing said, "Our two sides combined killed a total of 18 martial artists from the Wang family. I wonder how things are going on Brother Han's side!"

"Enemy attack!!!"

As soon as Zheng Qing finished speaking, a loud voice resounded throughout the entire Wang Family Manor.

Zheng Qing and Chen Dao's expressions changed instantly. The voice was extremely unfamiliar and could absolutely not have come from Han Yue's men, which meant...

They've been exposed!

"not good!"

Zheng Qing was startled and said, "Brother Han has run into trouble. We need to go and provide support as soon as possible!"

"it is good!"

The two, along with the Zheng family's martial artists, quickly headed towards the direction from which the sound came.

At the same time, in the direction from which the sound came, Han Yue was looking at the corpse on the ground, his face extremely grim.

The corpse belonged to a seventh-rank martial artist from the Wang family. He was the one who had just made that enemy attack sound. Han Yue never expected that while everyone else was asleep, this person would be staying up all night cultivating.

Han Yue's original intention was to sneak into the house silently and kill the martial artist. However... the martial artist, who was cultivating, immediately sensed Han Yue's arrival. As a seventh-rank martial artist, he was naturally no match for Han Yue, but Han Yue couldn't possibly silence him completely...

Before Han Yue killed him, the martial artist shouted "Enemy attack!", revealing their location and their infiltration.

"Brother Han."

Zheng Qing and Chen Dao rushed over, looking anxious, and asked, "How is the situation?"

Upon hearing this, Han Yue's expression turned ashen. He said, "I encountered a bit of an accident. This person wasn't sleeping; he was cultivating. He noticed me as soon as I entered the room. You all know what happened after that."

Upon hearing this, Zheng Qing and Chen Dao's expressions immediately turned serious. Their original plan was to infiltrate silently, eliminate as many of the Wang family's martial artists as possible, and ultimately destroy the Wang family completely.

It was obvious that the plan had already failed at this point!

Because with the shout from the Wang family warrior, the Wang family members inside the manor must have already reacted, and it would be impossible to deal with the Wang family warrior as easily as before.

"Brother Zheng, what should we do next?"

With a look of guilt on his face, Han Yue asked, "Should we retreat, or continue?"

A look of struggle flashed across Zheng Qing's face. If he missed this opportunity, the Wang family would definitely increase their defenses in the future, making it even more difficult to find another chance to eliminate the Wang family...

"Brother Han, how many Wang family warriors did you kill?" Zheng Qing asked, looking up.

"A total of 11 people."

Han Yue replied that because he had more manpower, he had taken down more Wang family warriors than Chen Dao, killing a total of 11 Wang family warriors.

"11……"

Zheng Qing pondered for a moment. He had killed 8, Chen Dao had killed 10, and Han Yue had killed 11, for a total of 29 Wang family warriors.

This is already an extremely astonishing number. Based on Zheng Qing's understanding of the Wang family's strength, he is already more than half of the Wang family's martial artists, which means...

At this time, the number of martial artists in the Wang family has been greatly reduced, and they are no longer at their former peak!

"Don't go!"

Whether it was recalling the numb and sorrowful eyes of the women in Lijiapo, or thinking of his past grudge against the Wang family, Zheng Qing gritted his teeth and said, "Let's settle this with the Wang family right here!"

"Then I, Han, will risk my life to accompany you!"

Han Yue suddenly laughed. The reason he was able to maintain a good relationship with Zheng Qing was because Zheng Qing had a boldness that was not found in other officials. When facing strong enemies, Zheng Qing never hesitated. This was what Han Yue admired most about Zheng Qing, and it was also the reason why he was willing to befriend him.

"Young friend Chen."

Zheng Qing turned to face Chen Dao and said in a deep voice, "I hope young friend Chen will lend me his assistance later."

"Prefect Zheng, rest assured."

Chen Dao nodded slightly. He was not worried about his safety. With Xiao Yuan there, even if his side failed, he was fully capable of retreating under Xiao Yuan's cover.

Besides, the chances of our side losing are not high. Most of the Wang family's warriors have already been killed, and their warrior strength is not much stronger than ours.
