My Apprentice Is Too Diligent

Chapter 41 [041] Want to leave? Dream on!

Sun Zhenyao screamed madly.

Watching his daughter being beheaded, he struggled like a madman to climb up and rushed towards the young man.

Bang~

The burly man standing behind the young man took a step forward, raised his hand and swung it, knocking Sun Zhenyao down again. He lay on the ground, coughing up blood.

"Kill another one."

The young man's mouth curled up, smiling as he gave the order.

"Yes!"

Two soldiers in armor, leading a crying eight-year-old child, walked towards Sun Zhenyao.

"No, no!"

Sun Zhenyao hoarsely shouted weakly, "Don't kill, don't kill, I'll give it, I'll give it!"

"Is that settled?" The young man raised his hand.

The two soldiers led the child back to a distance.

"I've hidden... hidden it." Sun Zhenyao weakly said.

"Then go get it." The young man waved his hand, and the two soldiers approached and lifted Sun Zhenyao.

"Okay, okay." Sun Zhenyao let himself be carried like a limp rag, "Go left."

The two soldiers carried him and walked towards the left.

...

Outside the hundred-zhang wall, in the darkness.

Chen Wuji watched as Sun Zhenyao was carried away to get something.

The young man and the burly man, however, stood still and did not move.

The former was fine, but the latter gave Chen Wuji a threatening feeling like a blade.

With Chen Wuji's current strength, only someone in the Body Refining Realm could give him such a feeling.

True Qi Realm!

Only the True Qi Realm could threaten him.

The burly man was a master in the True Qi Realm, but he obeyed the young man in armor.

The identity of the latter was obviously extraordinary.

"People from the capital, also coveting the Blood Transformation Sword Art?"

"It's just a Body Refining Realm technique. Although its transformation characteristics are good, it shouldn't make people from the capital pay special attention to it, right?"

Chen Wuji's gaze flickered.

He didn't stare at the two men.

With the mental power of the True Qi Realm, if he stared for a little longer, he would immediately notice.

Chen Wuji had never fought against someone in the True Qi Realm, but he knew how True Qi was used.

Based on his understanding of True Qi, he would definitely lose if he faced the burly man head-on.

This was true whether it was a frontal or a rear attack.

But whether he could escape was full of unknowns.

It mainly depended on whether the burly man had practiced light body techniques that used True Qi as a source of energy.

If...

"Boom~!"

A loud explosion suddenly came from a building in the distance.

Along with the sound, a ghostly figure flashed out of the firelight and rushed towards Sun Zhenyao.

"Go!"

But Sun Zhenyao shouted, "Don't mind me, take the thing and leave immediately!"

"Want to leave?" The young man chuckled, "Can you?"

Swish!

As soon as he finished speaking, the burly man shot out and captured a flickering old man.

The old man dodged left and right, constantly shifting his position.

Although the burly man was close behind, he was just a little short.

The two of them chased and fled in the courtyard, between the rockeries.

"Go!"

Sun Zhenyao saw it all, shouting with a hoarse voice, "Go! Don't mind me, go!"

"Hmph!"

The young man's face looked unpleasant as he shouted, "Stop playing around, kill him and bring the thing over!"

The old man running ahead tightly held a pitch-black wooden box in his hand.

"Yes."

The burly man responded in a deep voice, anger flashing in his eyes.

Whoosh~

Boom!!

A visible shockwave suddenly erupted from his body, sweeping through all areas within a five-yard radius.

"Poof~"

The fleeing old man was impacted, spurting blood from his mouth on the spot, his body uncontrollably flying into the air and swaying.

But soon he stabilized his figure, rolled on the ground after landing, quickly got up, and with a pair of bloodshot eyes, looked at Sun Zhenyao with a mix of sadness and anger.

"Let's go!!"

Sun Zhenyao weakly shouted.

"Roar~!"

The old man let out a beast-like roar, blood dripping from the corners of his mouth. He withdrew his gaze, no longer circling around, and flew outside the courtyard.

"Leave him to me!"

At this moment, the burly man shouted angrily, his two large hands opened, True Qi condensed and materialized, forming a translucent claw imprint in front of him, grabbing towards the old man through the air.

Whoosh~

"Poof!"

The old man spurted blood, narrowly avoiding being hit, his back clothes all exploded, flesh and blood splattering, bones breaking, and he fell to the ground, unable to move for a while.

"Hmph."

Seeing this, the young man coldly shouted, sneering, "You want to leave? Dream on!"

"Do you know how I tracked you down?"

"It was during this period of time when you were searching for quartz everywhere!"

"That's right, Quartz has already joined me, but you killed him and pretended to be innocent, making people search everywhere."

"What? You want to clear your name?"

"Let me tell you, you're thinking too much!"

"I originally wanted to be gentle and get the thing. As long as you cooperated obediently, there would be no need for you to die. But you dared to kill my people and still covet my things."

"What? Do you think I'm a three-year-old child that you can bully at will?"

"You shameless scum, no one should think about hiding the thing I want!"

"..."

Sun Zhenyao didn't respond, nor did he bother to explain.

At this point, he was finished.

"Hmph!"

The young man ignored him and walked slowly towards the old man.

"Cough~ cough~"

The old man coughed up blood on the ground. The corner of his eye caught a glimpse of the young man approaching step by step.

His breathing suddenly intensified, his chest rising and falling, and he tightly gripped the wooden box in his hand.

In the next moment, he suddenly opened the box and grabbed two manuals from inside, throwing them towards a bonfire less than ten steps away.

"Oh no!"

"Stop!"

"Quick, catch him!"

...

Exclamations instantly rang out.

The burly man's pupils contracted, and with a muffled sound, his True Qi burst, his whole person like a cannonball, rushing over at high speed, trying to intercept.

But!

A figure rushed out from the darkness, even faster.

Like a flash of lightning, it disappeared in an instant.

Swish swish~

As if a startled swan's fleeting movement, it firmly caught the manuals just before they fell into the bonfire.

Then, the figure swayed in place, once again like lightning, flying towards outside the courtyard.

Whoosh!

Whoosh~

In the blink of an eye, it disappeared into the darkness...
