Chapter 296: Open!!! (2)

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Under the moonlight, eight people were carrying the brass medicinal furnace through the forest. They weren’t slow.

Bai Siming was leading the way in front while looking around the surrounding mountains and forests and talking to the Jun Mountain Terrace duo beside him. “The Heavenly Carnelian Bead has just been tested. There’s one prepared in the medicinal furnace behind. As long as we take it, it won’t be a problem for me and Brother Guan to become Martial Chiefs on the spot. However, brewing the medicine requires time. The two of you can follow us to Yellow Stone Ridge first…”

Xuanyuan Hongzhi and Yao Wenzhong had just arrived when the soldiers arrived shortly after. It was a little suspicious.

But the soldiers were already 15 kilometers away, which meant that they had already set off at noon.

At noon, Bai Siming was still lobbying Xuanyuan Hongzhi. Their hiding place had been accidentally leaked by Guan Yujia, so these two people might become life-saving straws.

From the beginning to the end, Xuanyuan Hongzhi had never thought about helping the Prince of Wu escape. His goal in staying here was similar to that of the Cutting Cloud Palace. He wanted to swindle the formulas and leave.

But Bai Siming was at his wit’s end and very cautious. He wouldn’t hand over the formulas if he didn’t see a way out. He just kept bragging about the power of the divine medicine in his hand.

The large group of soldiers would take at least half a day to march 15 kilometers in the mountains. It was enough time for everyone to move, so the group wasn’t in a hurry.

But just as the dozen or so people walked a few kilometers, the Prince of Wu’s team, which was marching silently in the distance, suddenly heard a commotion.

“Ahhhh!”

“Enemy attack!”

Sha!Sha!

The dense sounds of sabers being drawn came.

Everyone’s expressions changed drastically as they looked up at the distant mountains.

Because it was already dark, they hadn’t dared to light a torch. They could only use the moonlight to see a large number of figures moving in formation in the distance.

Bai Siming felt that something was amiss and wanted to rush to the Prince of Wu’s side to provide support. But at this moment, a loud voice suddenly came from the forest not far away. “Hero Yao, hold Bai Siming back! In half an hour, Madam Meng will be able to capture the Prince of Wu alive…”

The four people in the lead of the team were all top experts. Their reactions were even faster than their thoughts.

The moment the voice sounded, Bai Siming stopped in his tracks.

As for Guan Yujia, he was injured, so he was already careful. When he sensed that something was wrong, he raised his hand and directly punched the side of the face of the bamboo hat man beside him.

Bam!

Xuanyuan Hongzhi’s strength was definitely not bad, but compared to a provincial overlord such as Guan Yujia, there was still a gap. The moment he sensed that things were bad, he immediately touched the hilt of the saber at the back of his waist, but a heavy punch struck him in the face. His entire body flew horizontally and broke two trees as thick as bowls.

Crack! Crack!

On the other hand, Yao Wenzhong was much more stable. He knew that they had fallen into a trap when he heard the sound. Seeing Bai Siming’s extremely tricky palm strike, he immediately took large strides backward and distanced himself. “Stop! It’s a trap!”

But everyone’s heartstrings were tense, and they were wary of each other. Even though they knew that there was a trap, the four of them jumped up at the same time and instantly distanced themselves from the bronze medicinal furnace.

Ye Jingtang was lying in ambush in the forest, waiting for an opportunity. When he saw the four experts suspecting each other and retreating far away, his figure immediately exploded. Like a black bolt of lightning, he passed through the forest and rushed toward Zhang Jinglin, who was standing in front of the medicinal furnace and had yet to react.

Ye Jingtang’s original plan was to abduct Zhang Jinglin and run away, leaving the blame to Jun Mountain Terrace and letting the two groups kill each other.

But what Ye Jingtang didn’t expect was that the moment he rushed out at lightning speed, a figure charged out of the forest behind Bai Siming’s team at the same time.

The speed of the thin figure was unbelievable. This person jumped from a spot 300 feet away, making an explosion, and flashed to another location with a whoosh, similar to Daoist Xuanji’s shocking movement technique.

Ye Jingtang’s expression changed slightly when he saw this scene. He kicked a tree in the air and flew back.

As for the Northern Liang Thief Sage, after rushing out, she realized that Ye Jingtang had the same goal as her. There might be a conflict, so she forcefully stopped in place halfway. The sourcᴇ of thɪs content ɪs ɴoᴠel ꜰɪre.nᴇt

Whoosh!

The moment Xuanyuan Hongzhi was punched and jumped back up, the other five people had already distanced themselves and scattered around the medicinal furnace.

The eight guards carrying the medicinal furnace finally reacted. They quickly put down the bronze furnace, pulled out their sabers, and looked around as if they were facing formidable enemies.

After Bai Siming glanced at the two people who had suddenly appeared, he looked at the black-robed man with a bamboo hat on the right and felt that his figure was a little familiar.

Guan Yujia directly said, “Ye Silang?! You’re really fine! Doctor Zhang, do you see that? It’s him. The medicine has indeed succeeded. He’s still fine…”

Although Yao Wenzhong was surprised that Ye Silang was here, he was in no mood to pay attention to him at this moment. He only frowned while looking at the black-clothed woman behind him, feeling that this woman’s lightness skills were shocking.

Ye Jingtang didn’t expect to bump into a person suspected to be one of the Eight Chiefs. He guessed that this woman was the ruthless person who had beaten Daoist Xuanji unconscious.

Since the ambush had failed, it would be difficult for him to get close again.

Now that Ye Jingtang had exposed his identity as a government official, he would probably be attacked by this group of people. For this reason, he said calmly, “Xuanyuan Hongzhi, long time no see.”

Xuanyuan Hongzhi and Yao Wenzhong were standing together. They had been punched in the face, and their bamboo hats and masks had been smashed. Half of their faces were swollen. They stared at the black-clothed and face-covered Ye Jingtang.

Xuanyuan Hongzhi said, “In just a short month, Nephew Ye has changed so much. It’s really unexpected.”

Whoosh!

Just as the six people present were judging the complicated situation, there was suddenly a sound near the medicinal furnace.

Everyone looked over from the corner of their eyes and saw the disheveled Zhang Jinglin quietly opening the medicinal furnace. Then he opened the medicine box at his waist, pressed the hidden button at the bottom, and poured what was inside into the medicinal furnace.

Rustle, rustle, rustle-

Countless white objects poured out of the hidden compartment at the bottom of the medicine box, emitting a faint sound.

At first, everyone didn’t understand what was going on. After the Northern Liang Thief Sage took a look, she recognized the objects and said angrily, “Stop! How can you waste so much…”

“No, it’s not a waste!”
