Chapter 455: None of Them Will Escape!
"NO!!!"
Tears streamed uncontrollably from Shen Youchu’s eyes. ’That damned old bastard! He actually killed Uncle Hu, who was like a real uncle to me!!’
’Damn him!!’
’Damn him to hell!!!’
Shen Youchu wanted nothing more than to tear Uncle Fu limb from limb!!
In her extreme rage, Shen Youchu failed to notice the Water Element on her dagger fluctuating!
Yang Haotian’s eyes lit up. He had found an opportunity to counterattack!
BAM!
Yang Haotian slammed a palm into Shen Youchu’s abdomen with all his might!
Shen Youchu was sent flying by the blow!
If Shen Youchu hadn’t taken the Bursting Pill, this single strike would have been enough to take her out of the fight!
Even so, Shen Youchu violently spat out a mouthful of blood, her aura diminishing significantly!
"You’re courting death!!"
Ignoring her own injuries, Shen Youchu lunged fiercely toward Yang Haotian!
A moment ago, Yang Haotian’s bodyguards hadn’t been fully prepared, allowing Shen Youchu to succeed. This time, however, several bodyguards swarmed forward, launching a coordinated assault on her!
By now, Shen Youchu’s aura had dropped to the Martial Emperor Late Stage. Facing two at the Martial Emperor Middle Stage and four at the Martial Emperor Early Stage, she was struggling badly!
To make matters worse, Uncle Fu would occasionally launch a sneak attack.
In just a short time, Shen Youchu was hit several times, and her aura fell to the Martial Emperor Middle Stage.
Shen Youchu’s situation was becoming perilous!
The eyes of the young members of the Hu and Zhu Families were bloodshot. They hated this, hated that they were too weak! All they could do was watch helplessly as Shen Youchu fought for her life!
"Are we, a bunch of grown men, just going to let a young girl like Youchu fight to the death alone? Let’s fight them to the bitter end!!"
It’s unknown who shouted it!
Like fearless warriors, the disciples of the Hu and Zhu Families launched a final charge, using their own bodies as weapons!
Unfortunately, courage is sometimes meaningless in the face of absolute power!
Soon, all the disciples of the Hu and Zhu Families had fallen!
Shen Youchu’s heart felt like it was bleeding as she stared death at Yang Haotian!
’She knew this was her only remaining chance!’
’A chance her uncles, brothers, and sisters had bought for her with their lives!’
Taking advantage of the chaos created by the Hu and Zhu Families, which had distracted the bodyguards, Shen Youchu charged recklessly toward Yang Haotian!
’Even if it meant death!’
’Shen Youchu had to kill this master culprit!’
"You little bitch! Why are you so fixated on me? Do you think I’m some kind of pushover? You’re asking for death!!!"
Provoked repeatedly by Shen Youchu, Yang Haotian finally lost his temper and threw a fierce punch at her!
BAM! BAM!
Their fists struck each other’s bodies at almost the same instant!
"Ugh..."
Yang Haotian let out a muffled grunt, a trickle of blood escaping the corner of his mouth. He had sustained a minor injury.
Shen Youchu, already severely injured with the Medicinal Power of the Bursting Pill nearly exhausted, took far greater damage. She was sent flying by the punch and collapsed limply to the ground!
Finally feeling like he had vented his anger, Yang Haotian roared, "Seize this little bitch! I’m going to skin her alive!"
"Yes, sir!"
Several bodyguards rushed forward, restrained Shen Youchu tightly, and began dragging her toward Yang Haotian.
"Let me go! You let me go! My brother won’t let you get away with this!"
Two of the bodyguards sneered, "Your brother? He’s probably scared witless by now, right? To be honest, we’d love for him to hurry back. Why don’t you give him a call?"
...
Rushing as fast as he could, Cheng Yuan finally made it back to Yuanxi Pharmaceutical. Without even stopping to catch his breath, he sprinted straight for the water room!
While still hundreds of meters away, Cheng Yuan could feel intense energy fluctuations coming from the direction of the water room!
Cheng Yuan was worried. ’Are Third Uncle and the others okay?’
Cheng Yuan quickened his pace again!
When Cheng Yuan arrived at the water room, the scene before him made him grit his teeth so hard they could shatter! A wave of demonic fury shot up from the base of his spine straight to his brain!
The disciples of the Hu and Zhu Families were all lying in pools of blood! Half of them had had their throats crushed!
What infuriated Cheng Yuan the most was the sight of two Yang Family bodyguards dragging Shen Youchu towards Yang Haotian!
’These animals from the Yang Family deserve to die!!’
"Let go of Youchu! You’re courting death!!!"
SWOOSH!
In a flash, Cheng Yuan’s figure blurred as he shot directly toward the two bodyguards dragging Shen Youchu!
Yang Haotian’s eyes lit up, and he shouted, "It’s Cheng Yuan! Cheng Yuan is back! Men! Seize him for me!!"
’So this is Cheng Yuan?’
’Just a Martial King Middle Stage?’
A trace of disdain appeared on the faces of the crowd. Five or six bodyguards at the Martial King Peak rushed forward, attempting to capture Cheng Yuan!
The others watched with great interest. In the minds of the Yang Family members, five or six experts at Martial King Peak taking down one at Martial King Middle Stage was a sure thing.
However, what they didn’t expect was...
Cheng Yuan merely waved his hand!
An astonishing wave of Gang Qi appeared, and the five or six men were swatted away like flies!
SWOOSH!
The next second, Cheng Yuan was in front of Shen Youchu, his hands raised, closing around the throats of the two bodyguards!
"You seem to enjoy crushing people’s throats, don’t you?"
CRACK! CRACK!
The two bodyguards clutched their own throats and collapsed limply to the ground. Even in death, they couldn’t comprehend how they had been instantly killed by a mere Martial King Middle Stage practitioner!
Yang Haotian, Uncle Fu, and the others were stunned, watching the scene unfold with utter disbelief!
’How is this possible?’
’A Martial King Middle Stage instantly killed seven or eight Martial King Peak experts in a single second?’
’This doesn’t make any sense!’
From the shadows, Fu Qingzhu’s pupils contracted slightly. ’Just what kind of man is this??’
’One moment he was full of tenderness, and the next he transformed into a merciless God of slaughter!’
For some reason, Fu Qingzhu found Cheng Yuan incredibly handsome as he killed!
Cheng Yuan helped Shen Youchu up and checked her injuries, his expression a mixture of heartache and gentle reproach.
"Youchu, you just recovered from your last injury! How could you take a Bursting Pill? It’s a good thing I came back when I did! Otherwise, you would have died! Quick, open your mouth!"
As he spoke, Cheng Yuan took out a Three Patterns Rejuvenation Pill and placed it in Shen Youchu’s mouth.
Shen Youchu trusted Cheng Yuan unconditionally and swallowed the Three Patterns Rejuvenation Pill without hesitation.
An astonishing surge of Medicinal Power rose within her, protecting her already fractured heart meridian and safeguarding her Fire of Life.
A little color returned to Shen Youchu’s pale face.
Regaining a bit of strength, Shen Youchu raised a hand and pointed worriedly in Hu Sanqiang’s direction. "Brother, don’t worry about me. Uncle Hu is hurt worse than I am. Quick, go save Uncle Hu!"
"Alright."
Cheng Yuan rushed over to Hu Sanqiang and placed a hand on his wrist to check his pulse. His expression then turned incredibly grim, and two streams of tears flowed uncontrollably down his cheeks!
Cheng Yuan gritted his teeth and said, "Uncle Hu... is gone."
"SOB SOB SOB... Uncle Hu! WAAAAH!! Uncle Hu died trying to save me! SOB SOB SOB..."
Shen Youchu hugged Cheng Yuan and cried her heart out, while tears also welled up in Cheng Yuan’s fierce eyes.
In the shadows, Fu Qingzhu clenched her fists tightly. She had seen countless people cry—adults, children—and had always remained unmoved.
But now, she was moved.
Cheng Yuan’s tears tugged at her heartstrings!
After crying for a full thirty seconds, Shen Youchu finally looked up, her gaze fixed on Yang Haotian with boundless hatred.
"Brother, that man is the leader! He’s the one who ordered the killings! And Uncle Hu was killed by that old bastard! I don’t care about the others, but you have to kill those two!"
"Youchu, don’t worry. Everyone here today... not a single one will escape!!"
