Chapter 161 Ye Li'an, you know martial arts!



Chapter 161 Ye Li'an, you know martial arts!

There weren't many of them, and only a few were truly capable fighters. With Ji Xiao, a master fighter, they could handle most of them, and the brother and sister were well protected.

Old Madam Ye had never seen such a bloody scene before. She was so frightened that she trembled and clung tightly to Ye Chengzhu, trying to climb onto the carriage.

Ye Chengzhu held a sword in his hand, standing in front of Old Madam Ye, seemingly wary, but his eyes kept glancing at Ye Li'an.

While everyone's attention was on the bandits, he quietly approached Ye Lian'an.

Ye Yaoyao held a sword in one hand and poison in the other, watching the battle ahead with alertness.

Hearing the soft footsteps behind him, Ye Li'an smiled and subtly exposed his back, shielding Ye Yaoyao in front of him.

Ye Chengzhu narrowed his eyes dangerously and suddenly raised his sword to stab. Old Madam Ye trembled and could not climb up the carriage. Seeing that Ye Chengzhu was not by her side, she got off the carriage and stumbled over.

"Chengzu, Grandmother is so scared."

Old Madam Ye happened to bump into Ye Chengzhu, which helped him quickly and directly stab Ye Li'an.

"Heaven is on my side!" Ye Chengzhu thought excitedly to himself.

However, Ye Li'an turned around, pinching the sword tip between two fingers, forcing Ye Chengzhu to stop.

"Is Brother Chengzu going to kill me?"

Ye Chengzhu's face instantly turned extremely ugly. Ye Li'an actually knew martial arts. He then forced himself to remain calm and said:

"This is a misunderstanding. I originally intended to bring my grandmother here, but she was so panicked that she accidentally bumped into me and almost hurt you."

"Li An, you know martial arts!"

"If I didn't have martial arts skills, I would have almost been ambushed by you."

Ye Yaoyao glared at Ye Chengzhu with hatred, then with a flick of her hand, she slipped the drug onto his body.

"Cousin Yaoyao, I didn't mean to."

"Ye Yaoyao, why are you being so mean to Chengzu? I accidentally bumped into him, and besides, Li An is fine."

Old Madam Ye couldn't bear to see Ye Chengzhu being bullied by the two siblings, and Ye Yaoyao looked at the old woman with icy eyes.

"If anything happens to my brother, I'll make your grandson wish he were dead."

Old Madam Ye was frightened by Ye Yaoyao and hid behind Ye Chengzhu.

"Brother Chengzu probably didn't mean it!"

Ye Li'an let go, and the sword broke in two. Ye Chengzhu now knew how high Ye Li'an's martial arts skills were, and that his plan to kill him was impossible.

After dealing with the people, Ji Xiao came over and, seeing the scene before him, asked, "Are you alright?"

"Uncle Ji, not bad!" Those people had all been killed, and blood was everywhere.

There can't just be this one group!

"Let's go! Let's keep going."

Ye Jingyang and Xin Chuli, who were waiting in another valley, could not see any signal being sent.

"Second Brother Ye, let's not wait for the signal, let's just go!"

"Okay! Let's meet up with our older brother and the others directly."

Ye Jingyang agreed without even thinking, fearing that, like last time, by the time reinforcements arrived, something bad had happened to everyone.

Ye Yaoyao looked around for a while, and when there was no movement, she prepared to get into the carriage. Suddenly, the two horses became agitated and the coachman could not pull them away.

"Little sister, real danger is coming." Ye Lian took her hand.

"What happened?" Old Madam Ye asked, her voice trembling with fear as she tightly gripped Ye Chengzhu's arm.

[Host, there are wild beasts, and quite a few of them. Be careful!]

Sure enough, not long after, the sound of tremors from the ground was heard.

Ye Li'an shielded Ye Yaoyao behind him, his expression grave as he gazed in the direction from which the sound came.

Soon, more than a dozen ferocious beasts appeared, their eyes gleaming with malice. Looking at the corpse on the ground, the wild boars immediately began to devour it.

This is much harder to deal with than those who pretend to be bandits.

Grandma Ye screamed in fright, "Ah! Tigers, wild boars, and black bears are eating people... Chengzu, you must protect your grandmother!"

Ye Chengzhu swallowed hard; how could he not know that these wild beasts roamed the area?

"Hurry, let's go!" Ye Chengzhu ran a few steps.

"Roar!" A tiger roared and pounced at him.

Tigers love to eat fresh meat!

[Host, stop thinking about these things and quickly think of a way to escape!]

We're surrounded and can't escape. If only my second brother had brought a bow and arrows.

Damn it, Ye Chengzhu is so despicable, he actually ran this way to me.

[There are so many people here, if they don't run this way, where else can they go?]

Ye Mian did send people to protect Ye Chengzhu, and the tiger was temporarily stopped.

[Haha! This is the most enjoyable moment I've ever seen an old woman.]

Old Madam Ye stayed behind Ye Chengzhu the whole time and didn't bother them.

The area where Ye Yaoyao was located had the most corpses; the wild boars and black bears gnawing on the dead bodies were probably starving.

Ye Yaoyao took out all the medicine she had and distributed it to everyone.

"They're so big, this powder probably won't last long. Quick, while they still have food, let's kill them."

The guards attacked the black bears and wild boars, preparing to fight their way out. The beasts, who were feeding and were disturbed, became enraged and fought with the guards.

The medicine powder did work; the wild boar's attack was slowed down. However, those protecting Ye Chengzhu were not so lucky, and many of them were bitten.

Ye Yaoyao was being tightly protected by Ye Li'an as they faced an attack from a tiger.

The tiger pounced suddenly, but Ye Lian, holding Ye Yaoyao, dodged to the side and swung his sword at the tiger. The tiger was extremely agile and easily dodged the attack.

"Big brother, watch out!" Ye Yaoyao sprinkled the medicine powder, but the tiger was too fast and dodged it.

Ye Jingyang arrived, took out his bow and arrow, and shot the tiger in the rump.

"Roar!" the tiger roared in pain.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Ye Lian rushed forward with his sword and stabbed the tiger in the abdomen. The tiger finally fell to the ground and stopped moving.

The battle between the other guards and the wild boars and black bears intensified. Several guards were injured but were still fighting desperately. The men brought by Ye Jingyang joined the battle.

Ye Chengzhu was not so lucky; fewer and fewer people protected him, and the Ye siblings were getting further and further away from him.

His rudimentary skills were no match for the attack of a wild beast, and with a burden following behind him, he was being chased by a black bear.

Ye Jingyang did see the man, and intended to take advantage of the chaos to shoot him with an arrow, but he pretended not to see him being chased by the black bear.

"Luckily, we couldn't wait and came early this time. Big brother, little sister, are you alright?"

"It's alright, it's alright, Second Brother, you've come at the perfect time."

Old Madam Ye followed closely behind Ye Chengzhu, constantly chanting, "Buddha bless, Buddha bless."

Seeing that the black bear was about to catch up, Ye Chengzhu used his sword to cut open his clothes and flung away Old Madam Ye.

"Seungjo, I am your grandmother!"

"I have a long life ahead of me, Grandmother. I am your only grandson, the hope of the Ye family. You cannot drag me down." Ye Chengzhu abandoned her and ran away.

"Chengzu, Chengzu! You can't abandon your grandmother..."

Old Madam Ye fell to the ground, and the black bear chased after her. Perhaps it thought she was too old to eat, sniffed her a few times, and then ran after Ye Chengzhu.

Old Madam Ye escaped a terrible ordeal, but she was trembling all over, feeling weak, and so frightened that she lost control of her bladder, her clothes becoming soaked with sweat.
