Chapter 19: The Fall
Seeing that the two of them were so confident, the flower demon gradually retreated in his heart, he would definitely not be able to fight the two of them now, but he was not willing to let him give up Ye Chen.
"What do you have to do with him, senior brother, just kill him, and save one scourge for the martial arts, killing two birds with one stone!" The woman saw that the flower demon was hesitating, pulled out her sword and shouted that she was about to do it.
"Count you ruthless, you wait for me............"
Seeing that the woman was about to make a move, the flower demon left after dropping a word. He thought twice before deciding to give up for the time being, Ye Chen had been abolished by him, and the two of them couldn't go far with him, as long as he went back to the village and brought people, Ye Chen would return to his hands.
"Scared the hell out of me! I thought he was going to do it!"
After the woman saw the flower demon leave, she clutched her chest and gasped. In fact, they are just bluffing, and they don't want to make a move with the flower demon, after all, the flower demon has been famous for a long time, even if they are injured, if they have the mentality of dying together, they will not be able to get any benefits.
They are gambling, betting that the flower demon values their lives more than them, and fortunately they bet right this time.
Seeing that the enemy was gone, although Ye Chen was lying on the ground and couldn't move, he also thanked the two again and again.
"Senior brother, why are they chasing him! What the hell is here! It is worth the Shura Hall Master to go out in person?" the woman said as she looked at the man with a look of adoration.
"I don't know, but it must be an incomparably precious treasure, otherwise this old fox wouldn't have taken action in person, and he would have used such a big battle to catch a stinky boy. The man pinched his chin, thoughtful.
"Alas...... I ask you, why are they chasing you?"
The woman came to Ye Chen's side, didn't care about his injuries at all, and kicked his foot.
With her kick, Ye Chen's face suddenly distorted, although he was disgusted by the woman's actions, he didn't dare to make a noise, because he still had to count on them to take him away.
"I ...... I don't know, it's just that I accidentally overheard their conversation and said something about dragon scales or something, and they came after me. Ye Chen casually found an excuse to fool around.
"Really? We saw it just now, that woman is your mother, right? She knows martial arts, so you must not be an ordinary mountain person, if you don't tell the truth, we will leave you here, I want it not long, that person will come back with someone just now, he is a murderer who does not blink, do you know what will happen to his hands?"
The man obviously didn't believe Ye Chen's words and threatened him to tell the truth.
"What I said is true, our family is in business, my mother used to be in the rivers and lakes, so she knows a little martial arts, please take me away, please. ”
Ye Chen guessed that they were also paying attention to the dragon scales, so they didn't dare to have a relationship with the dragon scales, so they could only continue to fool around.
Listening to Ye Chen's words, the man was silent for a while. He actually didn't want to take Ye Chen away at all, he knew very well that he couldn't run away with a waste person no matter what, and the flower demon would come back at any time.
He was just taking Ye Chen's words, wanting to know from Ye Chen's mouth what the Shura Hall was talking about, and at the same time, he was also holding on to a fluke mentality, looking forward to Ye Chen being the treasure of the Shura Palace.
"Let's go, junior sister, the flower demon will come back at any time, we have to leave quickly, otherwise we won't be able to leave later." The man was silent for a moment, but then he suddenly spoke, and disappeared behind the bushes with the woman.
Their departure was a big blow to Ye Chen, but he couldn't be depressed yet, the flower demon hadn't come back yet, he should have a chance.
Thanks to the strict training given to him by the old man before, his physical fitness is different from ordinary people. Although he only had one hand to use now, he had the strength of his arm, and with this hand, he crawled forward on the ground with difficulty.
After crawling for more than ten meters, Ye Chen found that his physical strength was lost quickly, coupled with the sharp pain on his body, he knew that even if he was given time to climb, he would not be able to climb far.
After seeing a gentle slope, Ye Chen suddenly had a way to climb faster. He climbed to the edge of the gentle slope and rolled down on his side. After seeing another gentle slope, Ye Chen continued to roll down in the same way.
After rolling a few slopes in a row, Ye Chen was already far away from his original place. This method made him faster, but it also hurt him more, and he hit stumps and rocks several times as he rolled down the slope, and once even broke his forehead, causing a lot of blood to flow from the wound.
Fortunately, the emperor lived up to his wishes, and after rolling a few more ramps, Ye Chen finally found the hope of life. He came to the river, where he could escape with the help of the water, so that they would never catch up again.
He found a piece of driftwood that had been hit by the waves, pushed it into the water little by little, and then put his head on it and floated downstream along the water.
As soon as he left, the Flower Demon took another hall master to the place he had left before, looking around for the traces they had left behind.
In the end, the flower demon found the direction where Ye Chen was crawling, and following the traces left by Ye Chen, they chased them all the way to the river.
Ye Chen's escape, they naturally blamed the two people, because Ye Chen was already wasted, they would not believe that Ye Chen could come to the river so far away. thought that they took Ye Chen and floated away along the water.
Unable to find Ye Chen, the two of them returned to the village quickly, the old man and Lin Zhentian were still fighting, and the two sides were evenly matched, so they didn't decide the winner for a long time.
Both had obvious injuries on their bodies. Moreover, the faces of the two of them were pale, and at a glance, they knew that it was caused by the huge consumption of true qi.
Although the two of them couldn't bear it anymore, the fight was still so violent, and no one refused to back down in the slightest.
"Hall Master, that kid has fled. Just when the two of them were fighting fiercely, the flower demon suddenly said.
"What? What are you eating? So many people can't catch a stinky boy, what do you want from this seat?"
Lin Zhentian was furious when he heard this, Ye Chen fled, doesn't it mean that he came in vain this time.
"The hall master is angry, I have already taken down that kid, but I suddenly killed the two apprentices of Shangguan Renjie halfway. Their subordinates were outnumbered by them, and by the time the Wind Hall Master and I returned, they had fled by water. The flower demon was half-kneeling, respectfully retributing.
"It's Shangguan Renjie again......"
Lin Zhentian's face was bruised, and he suddenly vomited a mouthful of blood in anger. The old man seized this opportunity and struck at him with a palm, although he made a defensive move, he was still a step late, and was knocked back several feet away by the old man's palm.
"The Lord of the Temple......
When the three of them saw that he was repulsed, they hurriedly shouted.
The flower demon and the wind hall master rushed forward at once, entangled with the old man.
The old man was only at the end of his crossbow at this time, and although he didn't lose the wind in the fight with the two, he knew very well that he wouldn't be able to hold on for long if he continued like this.
Lin Zhentian was watching from the side, and when he saw two of his subordinates rushing forward, he did not immediately join the battle, but meditated and breathed on the side, observing the old man's weaknesses.
The two fought with the old man for more than 20 moves, and although the old man had the upper hand, he couldn't take the two for a long time.
After Lin Zhentian breathed briefly for a while, he saw that the old man suddenly turned his back to him, and he knew that the opportunity had come. He quickly approached the old man, and slapped him on the back with a palm of his whole body. The old man couldn't hold it anymore, and after a palm, the old man flew out upside down like a kite with a broken string. And he also exhausted all his true qi, and he was tired to the side.
Seeing that the old man had fallen, the two flower demons didn't bother with him anymore, and hurriedly came to Lin Zhentian to help him up.
Seeing the old man lying on the ground coughing up blood, Lin Zhentian finally breathed a sigh of relief. If it weren't for the two flower demons coming, it would be unknown who would fall first, he or the old man.
"Brother Qingyun, you still lost to me after all!" Lin Zhentian came to the old man's side with the support of the two, and said weakly.
"My emperor Qingyun has too many regrets, but I have never broken my promise. I've done my best, and I won't be able to protect them for you anymore......"
"Lin Zhentian, for the sake of our old feelings, I hope you will spare these innocent villagers. This is the last time I beg you in the name of my brother, and I hope you will hold up your noble hand......"
The old man raised his head to the sky and let out a long roar, his eyes looked at the sky very unwillingly, and he kept his head held high, and he never moved a single inch until he lost his breath.
Looking at the old man who had already lost his breath, Lin Zhentian just shook his head and sighed lightly, without saying anything. This once best brother, the strongest opponent, finally left before him.
For him, since taking over the Dragon Palace, the old man, the former brother, has fallen out with him, and the two have been fighting for more than ten years, although hostile, but neither of them will kill each other, this is the love of brothers, but also the respect of opponents. Because of this, after the old man disappeared back then, he thought that the Righteous Path Alliance had assassinated him, so he took people to Wushuang City in one go, just to avenge him.
The two flower demons saw that their hall master had been staring at the old man's corpse, and knew that he remembered the past. No one wants to bother him at the risk of being scolded.
Lin Zhentian, who came back to his senses, glanced around, except for the corpses all over the ground and the villagers who were shivering in their strong feet, the only people he brought were the four hall masters.
He didn't care about the old man's body, he knew that the villagers would deal with it, and he didn't embarrass a single villager, so he left alone with four of his men.
I don't know how long it took, but a villager slowly approached the old man with courage. When he learned that he was dead, he knelt down in front of the old man with a thud.
The rest of the people gathered around him when they saw him doing this, and after one glance, they also knelt down like him.
