Chapter 286 Escape
"You three old fools, are you feeling scared now? If you are feeling scared, there's still time to beg for mercy!"
"But, well... rest assured! Even if you kneel down, admit your mistakes, and apologize, I won't forgive you!"
Zhan Qimeng chuckled sinisterly, her eyes swirling around.
"Kneel?!"
"Don't even think about it!"
"Humph! Kill us if you can!"
Cangmu angrily growled, gritting his teeth.
"Oh, quite tough, huh! Fine then, let's give it a try! After all, I'm quite free, I'll play with you guys!"
Zhan Qimeng smirked and suddenly twisted her wrist violently.
Crack!
A sound of bones breaking suddenly erupted.
A muffled grunt emerged from Cangmu's throat instantly, and the veins on his forehead bulged out immediately.
"You can choose to beg for mercy, or have me personally twist your heads off; pick one!"
Zhan Qimeng grinned sinisterly, flipping her wrist; a sharp dagger again drew a bloody line on Cangmu's neck.
Watching the wound deepen, the blood began flowing slowly down his neck, Cangmu became utterly panicked.
Who could have imagined a girl, seemingly only fourteen or fifteen years old, could threaten the life of a mighty emperor-boundary expert like him!
"Damn it! Get out of the way!"
Cangmu suddenly roared, as the power within him burst out wildly.
Zhan Qimeng was only newly initiated into the emperor-boundary, and was caught off guard, instantly blown away.
Seizing the moment, Cangmu suddenly yelled, "Retreat!"
Cangmu's figure shook, and he sprinted directly towards the rear.
The two emperor-boundary experts beside Cangmu were also stunned for a moment, then their figures dashed, sprinting with all their might towards Cangmu.
Zhang Xiulan watched the backs of Cangmu and the others as they fled, a scornful sneer on her lips; her eyes bulged, and then her delicate body trembled slightly, as a terrifying killing intent swept around!
Whiz! Whiz! Whiz!
Zhang Xiulan's long sword swayed in her hand, suddenly transforming into a sky full of sword lights, enveloping Cangmu and the others beneath it.
Under those sword glares, it seemed like everything could be torn apart!
Thud! Thud! Thud!
The three were simply unable to withstand the myriad swords raining down, and their figures immediately plummeted to the ground.
Cangmu and his companions were in utter disarray, their skin lacerated by the sword rain in countless places, blood flowing ceaselessly.
Cangmu's face was covered in a fierce expression.
The two emperor-boundary experts were also soaked in blood and their bodies convulsed intensely.
Watching the pathetic state of Cangmu and his two companions, Zhang Xiulan laughed coldly.
"You three old fools, don't think that you can really leave here alive."
"The moment you stepped into Northern Liao, it was already destined that you would die here." Find more to read at My Virtual Library Empire
Zhang Xiulan said coldly, her voice filled with intense murderous intent.
"Don't be too arrogant, you cursed woman!"
"If we die here, the people of the imperial capital won't let you off, and when the time comes, not only you, but Ye Ling will also have to die!"
Zhang Xiulan gritted her teeth as she glared at him and coldly said.
Although the strength of these few men was astonishing, if the families behind Zhang Xiulan and her comrades exerted their full power, they could take them down, including Ye Ling, the Northern Liao King!
The fact that these families had been entrenched in the imperial capital for so many years was enough to demonstrate their power.
"Let them leave! As for those guys in the imperial capital, I will seek them out and settle the scores when the time is right."
Just then, Ye Ling suddenly spoke up.
Hearing this, Zhang Xiulan slightly nodded and no longer made a move against the three men.
The trio sighed in relief, no longer daring to utter threats, and promptly got to their feet to hurry away into the distance.
The sight of their retreating figures was utterly disgraceful. Who would have thought that three mighty men at the Emperor-level realm would flee from Northern Liao in such a pathetic state?
Ye Ling stepped forward to stand before Tie Quan and coldly said, "How much longer do you intend to play dead?"
"One would think you were already dead! Now that they have left, you don't need to leave."
Tie Quan's body trembled as he immediately opened his eyes.
Without any hesitation, he knelt before Ye Ling, his voice trembling as he said, "Northern Liao King, I am merely a retainer of the Xiao family, and my presence in Northern Liao was command-driven. Please, spare my life, Northern Liao King..."
"Spare your life? You helped Xiao Yun, that waste, scheme against Northern Liao. If I let you leave Northern Liao alive, I don't know how many would laugh at me, the Northern Liao King."
A look of indifference appeared on Ye Ling's face as he coldly spoke.
A hint of despair flashed in Tie Quan's eyes. Even faced with just Ye Ling alone, he was no match, let alone considering the three Emperor-level realm masters beside him!
Splat!
Not giving Tie Quan another chance to speak, Ye Ling's katana directly pierced through Tie Quan's body.
The fierce energy immediately surged wildly within Tie Quan's body, completely extinguishing his life force.
Blood trickled from the corner of Tie Quan's mouth, his elderly eyes filled with disbelief, as if he hadn't expected to truly die on this land of Northern Liao!
Seeing the formidable strength of Ye Ling and his companions, those from the various major forces dared not make a move, and many were even seeking the opportunity to flee from this place.
In the face of absolute power, all schemes and tactics are merely flimsy clouds!
"Sire, this katana belongs to us of the Guardian Crane Path. Please return it!"
The members of the Rakshasa Group had not forgotten their mission and immediately spoke up.
Ye Ling swung the katana in his hand, wiping the blood off the blade, then slowly turned to look at the seven people from the Rakshasa Group.
He glanced at the katana in his hand, then laughed and said, "This katana was given to me by Ryu Taniguchi just before he died. How has it become something of your Guardian Crane Path?"
The seven were all enshrouded in blood-red robes, making it impossible to see their faces.@@novelbin@@
"The leader personally ordered us to enter Northern Liao, kill you, and retrieve the katana."
"If you are willing to hand over the katana, we will leave Northern Liao... "
The leader spoke again, his voice hoarse, as if he had not spoken for a long time.
Ye Ling raised an eyebrow and chuckled, "The leader? That old guy Shigeharu Mizuno?"
"Since his order was for you to kill me, why not make your move?"
"Or did you become afraid to act against me after seeing my strength just now?"
Before the Rakshasa Group could speak again, Gao Quan coldly interjected, "Sir, these dwarves from Wo Country dared to set foot in Northern Liao, they should die in Northern Liao!"
"Why not let me take action and keep these seven trash here?"
Ye Ling slightly nodded and smiled, "Wo Country has always coveted our Dragon Country; since they've come, they might as well stay. However, I am the lord of Northern Liao, and these fellows should be handled by me."
What do you think?
