Chapter 325 - 325: Surrounded? (2)

A team of nearly 2,000 people escorted the Prince of Wu and the captives out of the mountains.

At the front of the team, Dongfang Liren didn’t let anyone carry her in order to show the founding emperor’s demeanor of leading troops. She led the soldiers over the mountains and returned to Riverside Town.

The Ze Province army had been busy in the deep mountains and ancient forests for nearly two days. Many soldiers were exhausted. When they arrived outside the town, they set up camp on the spot and rested.

Because of their great achievement, Dongfang Liren specially sent the imperial guards to gather good wine and meat in the town as a reward. After giving the instructions, she returned to the inn in the center of the town and looked at the gradually darkening sky. “It’s only about fifty kilometers to Baywater Town. Ye Jingtang set off at noon and should be back now… Isn’t Ye Jingtang in town?”

The commander of the imperial guards behind replied, “Sir Ye only left with his two companions two hours ago. The sun must have been too strong at noon, so they rested in the town for a few hours. According to the time, he should have just arrived in Baywater Town.”

“Oh…” Dongfang Liren blinked. She originally thought that it was fine for Ye Jingtang to take a break at noon, but when she thought about how Miss Ning’er was with him…

This pervert. I was sweating under the sun in the mountains, but he actually sneaked back to bully a girl halfway…

If you want to rest, can’t you accompany me to rest at noon?

Dongfang Liren was a little dissatisfied. She originally wanted to ignore Ye Jingtang, but Wu Province was in chaos now. She still felt a little worried, so she thought for a moment and said, “Master, please bring me to Baywater Town to take a look. We’ve captured the Prince of Wu. We can’t let anything go wrong at the last moment before we return to the capital.”

Among the officials and soldiers of the Imperial Court, Daoist Xuanji had to maintain the demeanor of an expert who wasn’t so demonic. She had been restraining herself for the entire day. Hearing that Liren wanted to go out for a walk, she didn’t say anything else. She raised her hand to hug Dongfang Liren’s waist, and with a flash, she jumped onto a house and flew toward the Wu River…

“Giddyup!”

Ba – da – dum! Ba-da- du in!

Horse hooves flew on the yellow soil road. Three figures sped on the official road around the mountains under the setting sun and gradually arrived at Baywater Town along the Wu River.

Ye Jingtang was wearing the official robe of the Black Office’s commander. His horse was walking at the front while he observed the situation along the way.

The bird was standing on his shoulder, facing the wind and looking at the sunlight on the horizon. It was chirping, probably humming: 1 have fought alone over three thousand miles. With a beak, I repelled a million soldiers.

Luo Ning was still brooding over the two steamed buns stacked together at noon. She followed behind and didn’t say anything. She just looked at the scenery of the mountains and wilderness that was about to enter autumn.

Pei Xiangjun had come out and ran for a while. Her heart that was immersed in love calmed down. She rode in front of Ye Jingtang and played with the excited bird.

When the sun completely sank into the mountains, three horses arrived at the entrance of the town.

The sky was getting dark. The medicinal farmers in Baywater Town had already left, and the town gradually became quiet. There were dots of light along the streets, and there were not many pedestrians on the old streets.

Ye Jingtang slowed down his horse and stepped onto the bluestone street. He looked around the street, looking for traces of Zhang Wenyuan’s son.

But when they were still some distance away from the gambling alley they met last time, Ye Jingtang’s ears twitched. Suddenly, he heard a conversation from the depths of the quiet old street.

“Is that him? I’m afraid it won’t be easy to deal with three people…”

“The last two are just attendants with mediocre combat strength…”

The voices were very faint behind the window of the second floor of a restaurant a hundred meters away. If it were anyone else, they would definitely not have heard them. Third Lady and Ning’er, who were so close, didn’t react. Even the bird didn’t notice it.

But ever since Ye Jingtang opened up all the meridians in his body, his six senses had directly soared. It could be said that he could sense everything in half of the town. When he noticed something amiss, he paid attention to it and heard this conversation clearly. He could even distinguish that a voice seemed to come from Xuanyuan Hongzhi…

H ■j>h

Ye Jingtang blinked, feeling strange in his heart. In order to prevent alerting the enemy and scaring Xuanyuan Hongzhi away, he continued walking without batting an eyelid. On the way, he gently raised his hand. “You guys wait by the street. I’ll go get him.”

Luo Ning and Pei Xiangjun didn’t notice that there were people hiding in the distance. Hearing this, they didn’t say anything. They stopped by the street and waited for Ye Jingtang to handle his business. The bird soared into the sky and began to investigate.

Clack, clack..

Ye Jingtang rode his big black horse and walked alone through the old street. Through the subtle movements, he could distinguish the situation in the buildings on both sides of the street.

There were two people on the second floor of the restaurant. When Ye Jingtang approached, they held their breaths and condensed their qi. He could no longer sense them, but he could hear the sound of weapons being quietly raised.

There seemed to be someone in the alley of a gambling den. His aura was almost imperceptible. It should be Yao Wenzhong.

After Ye Jingtang walked past a teahouse, the two Jianghu people drinking tea outside the tea shop put down their teacups and reached out to grab something from the corner of the wall and under the table. Unsurprisingly, they were weapons…

Sandwiched on three sides… Ye Jingtang walked into the encirclement unhurriedly. He detected all the subtle actions of his opponents and could even deduce the scene of Yao Wenzhong and the old spearman walking out one after another. This feeling was really special. It was similar to teasing Ning’er when he had just learned the Wind Listening Palm…

Seeing that the other party didn’t make a move, Ye Jingtang didn’t speak first to avoid alerting them. He dismounted after walking near the gambling den alley.

Under the eaves outside the inn, a young man in yellow was still sitting on the steps and waiting. When he saw Ye Jingtang walking over, a look of joy appeared on his face, and he hurriedly stood up. “Sir, is there any news of my father?”

“Your father is fine. Go in first. 1 have some private matters to deal with.”

Ye Jingtang arrived outside the inn and raised his hand slightly to let the young man enter. Then he looked at the entrance of the alley not far away. “There’s a light in the alley. The shadow of your bamboo hat is exposed.”

As soon as he said this, the old street suddenly fell silent.

Tread, tread…

Muffled footsteps sounded from the alley.

Then the muscular Yao Wenzhong walked out of the alley in a black cloak. He was carrying a thick saber on his back, and only his chin was visible under his bamboo hat. He slowly walked to the middle of the old street.

One hundred feet behind him, Eighth Master Fan raised his spear, slowly rolled up his sleeves, and blocked the path of retreat.

Han Shaoping was holding two sabers in hand as he walked behind Pei Xiangjun and Luo Ning to block their way to help.

Xuanyuan Hongzhi and a black-clothed saberman appeared at the window. Their faces were covered by black scarves, revealing only two pairs of chilly eyes.. He said coldly, “Ye Jingtang, I want to see where you can escape today!”
