Chapter 410 -0405: An Ran Retreats

“Who exactly is that kid? So young, yet he possesses mutated Iron Moon Strange Insects and Fire Scale Beasts as his spirit pets.”

Man Rong, filled with doubts, approached the place where captives were held.

“Eh? Such thick fog?”

Man Rong suddenly discovered a layer of light mist enveloping him.

From a distance, the fog was even denser, obscuring everything from sight.

Man Rong didn’t concern himself further and continued forward, soon arriving in front of a massive cubic stone fortress.

“Young Master Man.”

Four guards immediately knelt.

Man Rong didn’t even glance at them, taking out a key and unlocking the giant lock on the iron gate.

Afterward, Man Rong walked inside.

Inside the fortress, several red tigers lay prone, with a huge bronze chariot behind them, and many captives were bound to two bronze pillars.

Man Rong’s arrival caught the attention of these captives, panic flickering in their eyes.

Man Rong’s position here was higher than even the Commander’s.

Why would this person come here without any reason? The captives had a bad feeling.

“The man who fought beasts with me during the day, you all know him, right?”

Man Rong asked sternly.

Mentioning the day’s beast fights made him very frustrated.

The captives exchanged looks, now mostly understanding Man Rong’s purpose.

However, no one answered Man Rong’s question.

“Whoever tells me first, and does so fully and accurately, I will release him right now.”

Man Rong’s lips curled into a smirk.

“His name is Chen Yu.”

One middle-aged man immediately responded.

This man was a Hall Master from the Bone Demon Palace.

“Continue.” Man Rong commanded.

The other captives showed disdain for the man, while some sighed, regretting their slow reactions and missed opportunity.

“He is a genius from the Yunyue Sect, born with great fortune. Some once-famous geniuses from Chu Country have all fallen by his hand. But he has also offended Lv Tiezu by killing Lv Santong, being chased as a result…”

The man narrated everything he knew.

Man Rong listened intently and couldn’t help but admire Chen Yu after hearing it all.

Chen Yu was young and previously unknown, yet managed to rise step by step, stepping over other geniuses.

Even Iron Sword Sect’s Lv Tiezu hadn’t managed to eliminate Chen Yu so far.

After hearing this, Man Rong felt a bit consoled; at least he was defeated by an exceptional talent, not some nobody.

“Even though you know so much, you’re still no match for Chen Yu.”

Fang Haofei snorted coldly.

Man Rong’s cultivation wasn’t high, only at the peak of Early-stage Innate, his main strength being beast-taming, along with many powerful spirit pets gifted by his grandfather.

Now, having suffered a crushing defeat in beast fighting to Chen Yu, competing in personal strength was even more out of the question.

“Oh? It seems you have some relations with that Chen Yu, I wonder if Chen Yu would abandon the Ink Flood Snake for your life?”

Man Rong sneered maliciously.

“You… are so despicable and shameless.”

Fang Haofei cursed loudly.

“Heh!”

Man Rong chuckled coldly, pulling out a leather whip and whipping fiercely.

Snap!

A bloody mark immediately appeared on Fang Haofei’s body, blood flowing out.

This wasn’t the end as Man Rong continued to lash him several more times.

Fang Haofei gritted his teeth and endured, but still let out miserable screams.

“Hmm?”

Suddenly, Man Rong stopped, his gaze flickering behind him.

Without knowing when, the mist had drifted into the fortress, giving Man Rong an uneasy feeling.

He slapped his storage bag, releasing a gray squirrel.

The gray squirrel sniffed vigorously, twitching incessantly, suddenly emitting a cry.

“Who’s there?”

Man Rong’s expression drastically changed, shouting loudly.

Thump~

Outside the fortress, the bodies of four guards fell to the ground.

The fog surrounding Man Rong thickened instantaneously, turning into a vast white expanse, where not even his fingers were visible.

“Weren’t you just inquiring about me?”

Chen Yu’s voice, tinged with a smile, echoed through the fog.

“It’s you!”

Man Rong shivered all over, his hand already on the pet bag, rapidly releasing several spirit pets.

On the ground, a black lizard, a white spider, and three strange insects appeared; the Ink Flood Snake Chen Yu had seen during the day also emerged.

Meanwhile, Man Rong himself mounted a bird and flew into the sky.

The bird was entirely silver, small enough to carry only one person, with an incredibly fast speed.

“Chen Yu?”

The captives were also extraordinarily shocked.

Chen Yu actually infiltrated this dragon’s lair for their sake.

Moreover, Chen Yu being able to infiltrate was itself incredible.

“Chen Yu, you dare to sneak in here, truly seeking death.”

Man Rong bellowed.

Initially, he didn’t think Chen Yu was that strong.

But Chen Yu’s ability to infiltrate silently was terrifying, and he also possessed two powerful spirit pets, which should not be underestimated.

Swoosh, swoosh!

All the spirit pets released by Man Rong pounced towards Chen Yu.

“Is that so?”

Chen Yu chuckled lightly.

Suddenly, a terrifying demonic pressure emerged from the fog, pressing down.

Instantly, all the attacking spirit pets forcibly halted their advance, trembling uncontrollably, not daring to move any further.

The silver bird in the sky also stopped flying, hovering midair.

“This… impossible!”

Man Rong also felt the terrifying aura, being shocked and in disbelief.

Boom!

Suddenly, a pitch-black, domineering fist burst through the fog.

Bang, bang, bang!

All the spirit pets were instantly crushed by Chen Yu’s punch, blood splattering everywhere.

In an instant, Man Rong’s massive army of spirit pets was completely annihilated.

In the sky, Man Rong’s mouth dropped open in shock and dismay, his mind going blank.

“Die.”

Chen Yu waved his hand, and a tremendous force of True Qi descended around Man Rong and relentlessly crushed him.

At that moment, Man Rong felt as though he was grasped by a pair of invisible hands, and his bones were breaking one by one.

He struggled with all his might, only to find it futile.

Facing that invisible hand, his power was like a firefly in the presence of the sun.

“Die!”

Chen Yu shouted low.

Bang!

Man Rong’s body burst apart, flesh and blood flying everywhere.

“How are things? Brother Chen, do you need help?”

Nangong Li urgently asked.

“Quick, save people.”

Chen Yu shouted low, the fog around them thinning.

Immediately, the bloody scene unfolded before Nangong Li and Mu Xueqing.

All dead!

Just now, Chen Yu had apparently thrown only a punch, but Man Rong and those Spirit Pets had all met gruesome deaths. He was too powerful.

Swoosh, swoosh~

The three of them rushed forward, severing the thick chains.

“We’re saved.”

“Thank you, Deputy Commander!”

Many immediately expressed their gratitude.

“You really are bold to have run here.”

Fang Haofei saw Mu Xueqing and Nangong Li and couldn’t help but laugh.

“We should leave, follow my lead.”

Chen Yu whispered, True Qi flowing into the “Smoke-spitting Pearl,” thickening the fog around them once again.

“How amazing, Chen Yu has such a treasure.”

Fang Haofei marveled, now understanding how the trio had infiltrated this place.

Swoosh, swoosh~

The group had just exited the stone fortress when noises and vibrations surrounded them.

“Catch them!”

A squad charged toward them.

“How audacious, to dare break in here.”

“Keep the prisoners!”

Several Qi Transformation Realm higher-ups rushed over, immediately shouting orders.

Amidst the fog, the crowd could not see anything but heard countless roars and shouts, everyone filled with immense dread and confusion, following Chen Yu closely.

“From now on, just keep charging forward!”

Chen Yu shouted low.

Everyone’s minds trembled, and they immediately complied, all charging forward.

At the same time, a troop and a few Qi Transformation Realm powerhouses rushed from behind.

Boom!

Chen Yu immediately threw a punch.

Due to the fog’s cover, those outside didn’t see it happen.

By the time they did see, it was too late.

The heavy, domineering black fist energy roared past, crushing everyone in its path, leaving behind a trail of devastation.

“Young Master Man is dead; activate the City Protection Array, don’t let them get out.”

“Activate the City Protection Array.”

Voices rang out.

At the edges of the city, various Arrays lit up, the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi fluctuating wildly.

“There’s such a powerful Array here; it could probably even trap someone from the Guiyuan Realm.”

Chen Yu felt slightly surprised inside.

Buzz!

A layer of dull yellow antique light shield suddenly shot up into the sky.

Instantly, inside and outside of the city seemed like two different worlds.

Simultaneously, within the depths of the city, a surge of powerful auras flared up.

“Who dares to infiltrate this place!”

A deafening roar resounded, and then a commanding giant man with a long sabre flew toward them.

Behind him, other powerhouses and a large troop mobilized.

Besides that, a large group of Demon Beasts furiously charged out.

“Oh no, the City Protection Array, what do we do?”

“We can’t get out, we’re all going to die.”

The group reached the edge of the city only to find that the Array had been activated, making it impossible to leave.

Swoosh!

Chen Yu suddenly rushed forward, pulled out an antique Token, and fiercely slashed.

Instantly, a huge gap appeared in the barrier before them.

Behind, many were stunned; but with no time to think further, they immediately dashed out.

Inside the city, everyone saw the prisoners, enveloped in a layer of white fog, escaping through the breach in the Array.

“How is this possible? The Array was broken?”

A few of the top figures widened their eyes, wondering if there was also an Array Master among those who’d infiltrated.

“It’s that kid!”

The Yan Leader recognized the last person to escape, who was the same Chen Yu who had fought beasts with Young Master Man during the day.

“Reporting, Leader, Young Master Man is dead.”

A soldier suddenly knelt on the ground, his voice trembling.

“What? Young Master Man is dead?”

The Yan Leader was thunderstruck, standing stiff.

In a moment, he burst out with an overwhelming aura, thunderously yelling, “You idiots, remove the Array and follow me out; kill them all!”

He slapped his pet bag, releasing a Spirit Pet.

Swish!

A pale blue shadow dashed out, transforming into a giant wolf that perched on a palace rooftop, letting out a series of wolf howls.

Immediately, a bizarre and powerful aura spread out, causing the bodies of many nearby to stiffen, then start trembling.

“Young Master Man is dead; I must annihilate them all, otherwise I can’t answer to the Clan Leader!”

The Yan Leader’s eyes flashed with ferocity.

This Guiyuan Realm Level “Green Wind Swift Wolf” was a trump card given to the Yan Leader by the Clan Leader, meant to protect Man Rong’s safety.

As long as Man Rong safely returned to the tribe, the Guiyuan Realm Level Green Wind Swift Wolf would be his.

But now, Man Rong was dead!

To appease the Clan Leader’s fury, he was determined to exterminate Chen Yu and his companions.
