Chapter 401: Just Killing Dogs
"Thank you for saving me, I'm fine now...!"
Leng Hanyue raised her eyes to glance at Yun Chen and said in a low voice.
"You saved me twice, saving you is my repayment."
Yun Chen waved his hand nonchalantly, looking out of the crevice, and said, "The danger is still out there. You're injured... Let's go together later."
"This……"
Leng Hanyue was a little hesitant.
"What's wrong? Is there a problem?" Yun Chen couldn't help but turn around and raised his eyebrows at her.
Leng Hanyue pursed her lips and was silent for a moment before saying, "I still have a mission to complete, so I'm afraid it's not very convenient..."
She paused, then continued, "But don't worry, I'll keep an eye on your master for you. If I can contact Senior-Master Ling Shuang, I'll ask her to release him."
In her opinion, the reason why Yun Chen asked her to come along was probably the same as before, that he wanted to exchange her for his master, so she quickly added.
The Japanese side has great ambitions, and she must pass the news back as soon as possible, otherwise if they succeed, the consequences will be unimaginable.
Yun Chen was stunned when he heard this, realizing that Leng Hanyue had misunderstood him. However, he did not explain, but nodded and said, "In that case, thank you very much."
We still need to contact Master as soon as possible.
She is unfamiliar with the place, so it would be a lie for Yun Chen to say that she is not worried.
However, Leng Hanyue saved them twice, so he couldn't attack Leng Hanyue.
"Okay! Then I'll take my leave. If there's a chance, we'll see you in the qualifying round."
Leng Hanyue nodded, then walked outside.
"and many more!"
Yun Chen called out to her.
Leng Hanyue turned around and looked at Yun Chen with some confusion.
Yun Chen thought for a moment and asked, "Why did you help us before?"
This was a question he hadn't figured out before.
If the first time was out of moral obligation, I would not understand the second time.
After all, Yun Chen had "repaid kindness with enmity" and almost caught her.
"Daxia monks will not tolerate bullying by the Japanese."
Leng Hanyue spoke lightly, then turned and left.
Looking at her leaving back, Yun Chen couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
Her back is slender and petite, but reveals her determination and stubbornness, giving people a strong visual shock.
"This woman is interesting."
It's getting dark.
A setting sun sets in the sky, and its afterglow spreads over the mountains and forests, casting an orange-yellow glow.
The bonfire in the jungle swayed in the breeze, reflecting Zhao Xiruo's slightly pale face.
She leaned against the tree trunk, her eyes occasionally cast into the depths of the dark jungle, her fingertips unconsciously twisting the corners of her clothes.
"Sister Zhao, don't worry, Brother Yun will be fine."
Lin Wan'er stood beside her and comforted her softly.
Zhao Xiruo nodded slightly, turned to look at Lin Wan'er beside her, pulled her to sit next to her, her eyes flashing unconsciously.
"I heard from Yun Chen that you were the first person he met after coming here?"
Her eyes were deep, filled with anticipation and curiosity.
When Lin Wan'er heard this, her cheeks flushed lightly, her small hands gently twisted the edge of her skirt, and her voice was soft with a hint of nostalgia.
"Yes, I was in danger at that time, and fortunately Brother Yun rescued me..."
"Yun Chen... is a very special man. His personality is very much like that of an older brother. He's serious and stern, yet he takes good care of me..."
As she spoke, she secretly observed Zhao Xiruo's expression. Her heartbeat was getting faster and faster, as if hundreds of deer were running around in panic.
There was no change in Zhao Xiruo's expression. She seemed not to have heard the second half of her words. She just looked thoughtfully at a place deep in the jungle, and her finger joints tightened slightly.
"Cough cough cough...!"
Elder Lei noticed Zhao Xiruo's abnormality, and quickly coughed a few times, adding a dry branch to the fire.
"Why hasn't Yun Chen come back yet? Is he in danger?"
As soon as Elder Lei finished speaking, a rapid sound of breaking through the air came from the depths of the jungle.
Zhao Xiruo stood up suddenly, a hint of joy flashed in her eyes, but it was quickly replaced by worry.
The voice seemed too hurried and a little messy.
"Be on guard!" Elder Lei shouted softly, with three talismans already in his sleeves.
Everyone stood up and looked towards the direction where the sound came from.
Lin Wan'er subconsciously leaned towards Zhao Xiruo, but Zhao Xiruo gently pushed her away and gestured for her to stand behind Elder Lei.
"No matter what happens later, protect yourself." Zhao Xiruo whispered, his eyes always fixed on the swaying shadows of the trees.
Lin Wan'er bit her lip, a complicated look flashing in her eyes.
At this moment, Yun Chen's figure rushed out from the dense forest.
His clothes were stained with blood and his breathing was a little rapid, but his eyes were still as sharp as a knife.
"Yun Chen!" Zhao Xiruo stepped forward quickly, but stopped three steps away from him. Her eyes fell on a bloodstain on his shoulder that had not yet completely solidified. "Are you injured?"
"It's just a superficial wound, nothing serious."
Yun Chen waved his hand and quickly glanced at everyone: "Leng Hanyue has left safely."
Elder Lei stepped forward and looked him over carefully. "Are you being targeted by the Japanese?"
Yun Chen nodded and briefly recounted the story of how he saved Leng Hanyue and then met the Japanese people after leaving the crevice.
Elder Lei's expression was grim. He looked at Yun Chen and nodded, "I'm glad you're okay."
"It's not advisable to stay here for long. We should leave."
However, just as he finished speaking, a shrill crow cry suddenly came from the distance.
Elder Lei's expression suddenly changed, and he stood up suddenly: "Oh no, it's the Japanese Shikigami Crow!"
Almost at the same time, dense sounds of breaking air were heard in the surrounding woods.
Countless poisoned kunai shot down like raindrops, emitting a faint blue light under the reflection of the campfire.
"Form a formation!" Elder Lei shouted, and the talismans in his sleeves flew out and turned into a golden light shield to protect everyone.
The kunai hit the light shield, making a harsh sound.
In the darkness, dozens of black shadows slowly appeared. The leader was wearing a ferocious Tengu mask, and the sword in his hand was glowing blood-red.
"Damn Chinese, you actually killed so many of our warriors on our territory. You can't leave here today."
An angry roar came from under the Tengu mask.
Hearing this, Yun Chen was instantly filled with anger.
"Fuck you, you bastard! When did this become your territory? This is our Great Xia territory. What's wrong with killing you? It's just slaughtering dogs."
Before he finished speaking, lightning flashed around Yun Chen, and then he pounced towards the other party like an arrow.
"court death!"
Seeing that Yun Chen dared to take the initiative to attack, the other party's face instantly became ferocious and he slashed at Yun Chen with a long knife in his hand.
Seeing this scene, Elder Lei and others reacted quickly and all of them took out their magic weapons and rushed towards the Japanese monks.
