Chapter 334: Chapter 55: Joining Forces

A Grand Concealment was instantly killed by the Fortune-teller Blind!

Chen Tang had guessed that the Fortune-teller Blind must have some tricks, but he never expected that his combat power would be so terrifying.

Receive money, solve people’s troubles.

The Fortune-teller Blind took the money and really did the job.

On the night he had just arrived in Qianzhu City, the Fortune-teller Blind accepted a hidden coin from him and helped him detoxify once.

Today, he took more than a hundred hidden coins and directly took down a Grand Concealment!

If he had known this, he would have earned more hidden coins and simply let the Fortune-teller Blind eliminate all the Grand Concealments around the Wind Mastiff.

Of course, that’s not very realistic.

Chen Tang steadied himself.

As he passed by that Grand Concealment, he reached out and took a few silver notes and hidden coins from him and put them in his pocket, continuing to head towards the Bamboo Forest Villa in the north of the city.

Following the route guided by Lady Yun, it wasn’t long before Chen Tang found the villa outside the city.

At this moment, at the entrance of the villa, two guards were pacing back and forth, patrolling.

Besides their eyes, ears, and noses, the rest of the two guards’ bodies were completely encased in metal armor, airtight and entirely impenetrable.

No wonder Lady Yun and Ye Yushi both said that the Guard Army of the Elder Council was difficult to deal with.

Chen Tang stood in the distant bamboo forest, slowly took off his bow and arrow from his back, and stared at the two guards in the distance, weighing the pros and cons in his heart.

He was in the dark, and at this distance, the two guards couldn’t detect him at all.

These guards are not without weaknesses.

The exposed ears and eyes are all flaws.

With the Flood Dragon Bow in hand, and with his proficiency and control over the bow and arrow, he was confident that he could kill one guard with a single arrow.

However, killing one of them would definitely alert the nearby guard, and might even alert the entire villa.

Once the Bamboo Forest Villa is on guard, Chen Tang will be unable to move.

At this moment, Chen Tang’s ears twitched suddenly, hearing some movements behind him.

Although the sound was extremely subtle, barely detectable, he still sensed an unusual fluctuation in the air behind him through the Wind Listening Technique!

Someone was approaching him and at a very fast speed!

“Was I discovered?”

Chen Tang was shocked internally.

Unexpectedly, before entering the Bamboo Forest Villa, his whereabouts had already been exposed!

Without thinking, as he turned around, Chen Tang instantly drew the bow and aimed an arrow in the direction of the incoming person!

“Hmm?”

Seeing the incoming person, Chen Tang was momentarily stunned, nearly releasing the Feathered Arrow.

The person was dressed in a gray cloak, difficult to discern in the night, but that stunningly beautiful face was too breathtaking, carrying an ancient sword on her back and a jade flute at her waist; it was the Jade Flute Fairy, Ye Yushi.

“Why are you here?”

Chen Tang hurriedly put down his bow and arrow, asking in a low voice.

Ye Yushi said faintly, “So Brother Chen thought Yushi was a coward, leaving without notice, risking danger alone.”

Chen Tang explained, “This matter has nothing to do with you, so I didn’t want to involve you. I came out of a moment of indignation, wanting to seek justice for Old Feng.”

“How is it not my business?”

Ye Yushi said, “Beiqian, the babies from Nanxia disappeared. I traced here all the way; behind this is the Elder Council. You are seeking justice for Old Feng, and I also want justice for those children.”

Chen Tang could hear the resentment in Ye Yushi’s voice, smiling awkwardly, he said, “I did not consider this matter carefully.”

Ye Yushi had no intention of letting Chen Tang off the hook, saying, “I’ve told you, these Guard Army members are hard to deal with, and there are Grand Concealments around the Wind Mastiff. You are merely a Fifth Grade, came here alone to court death?”

Chen Tang blinked and asked, “Is Yushi worried about me?”

“Nonsense,”

Ye Yushi avoided Chen Tang’s gaze, turning her head away.

After being interrupted by Chen Tang like this, most of the resentment in her heart dissipated, and she didn’t pursue the matter further.

“How did you know I would come here?”

Chen Tang was a bit curious, asking, “Did Lady Yun tell you?”

Ye Yushi said, “You were too calm at that time, which was abnormal, so I guessed you might have murderous intentions. Besides, as Lady Yun said, there are four Grand Concealments accompanying the Wind Mastiff on this journey.”

“There’s one in the Shadow Tower, which means there might be three Grand Concealments in this villa.”

Chen Tang thought for a moment and said, “There should only be two left.”

“Two?”

Ye Yushi was a bit puzzled.

Chen Tang briefly described what happened on his way, saying, “Let’s try to avoid alerting the rest of the guards and infiltrate quietly, first approaching the Wind Mastiff’s residence. As long as we deal with the Wind Mastiff, we should leave immediately.”

If the Guard Army is alerted, the Grand Concealments in the villa will also be present, and with the Wind Mastiff on alert, it would be very difficult for them to succeed.

Ye Yushi nodded slightly, saying, “If the Grand Concealments are alerted, I will hold them off, you go deal with the Wind Mastiff.”

“Let me do it,”

Chen Tang said, “I have the Flood Dragon Armor and should be able to delay for a moment longer.”

Dealing with a Grand Concealment would undoubtedly be extremely dangerous.

A Grand Concealment is not only a Third Grade Martial Artist but also a Third Grade Martial Artist skilled in many assassination techniques!

Ye Yushi glanced at Chen Tang and asked, “Are you Third Grade?”

“No.”

Chen Tang replied subconsciously, then suddenly lit up, realizing and asking, “Have you reached Third Grade?”

Ye Yushi nodded and said, “Actually, I could have broken through earlier, but I had some concerns.”

Chen Tang understood quickly.

If Ye Yushi were only Fourth Grade, those coming to assassinate them would be from the Middle Concealment only.

But if she advanced to Third Grade, then the assassination attempts would involve the Grand Concealments.

Trying to leave the Hermit Continent would become more difficult.

But now that the Execution Order had been issued and the hermits were unrestrained, the Elder Council had already dispatched Grand Concealments.

Ye Yushi no longer needed to suppress her realm.

She had just returned to her room to break through her realm in seclusion.

After reaching Third Grade, she found Lady Yun to express her requests.

Lady Yun sighed with admiration that both of them were considering each other in the face of danger, not abandoning each other, living and dying together, so she didn’t trouble Ye Yushi and even allowed her to leave through a secret passage.

Chen Tang was revitalized.

With Ye Yushi advancing to Third Grade, the chances of success were a few degrees higher with their combined efforts!

“How many meridians have you unblocked?”

Chen Tang asked.

Ye Yushi said, “Four, all the meridians in the hands and feet are unblocked.”

“Impressive.”

Chen Tang praised.

In Martial Arts, at the Third Grade Meridian Passage realm, the purity and accumulation of Inner Qi are crucial.

Most people can barely open one meridian during a breakthrough.

The outstanding Fourth Grade Martial Artists can open two meridians in one go with pure Inner Qi.

If someone could unblock three meridians in one breath during a breakthrough, it’s already one in ten thousand, a rarity.

Like Ye Yushi, who could open four meridians in one go, was even more extraordinarily gifted and rare in this world.

Ye Yushi said, “It was also a coincidence, I was poisoned some time ago, relying on a breath of Inner Qi to protect my Heart Meridian and withstand the Five Poison Powder. Over time, my body was soaked in poison, but my Inner Qi became more refined.”

Speaking of this, Ye Yushi slightly turned aside, her voice softening, “If I hadn’t met you, I would have died here long ago.”
