C36 The Sandpiper and the Clam Fight
The plain of Jialan outside the Jialan City was boundless. Dark green and fat green grass swayed in the wind, rising and falling like ocean waves. Waves of water splashed across the shore.
On this dark green grassland, a group of people was riding their horses in a hurry. Their hooves were galloping in the air, without a trace of smoke. In the outer perimeter of this group of people, there were a few tall and big horses surrounding them. They were two handsome lions.
The Blue-Eyed Lion was a tier 4 middle grade Devil Beast. Its body was over 3 meters long, and its body was covered in thick fur. It was soft and shiny. Its thick legs were strong and powerful.
On the backs of these two lions sat two men. One was a middle-aged man, and the other was a young man. Their appearances were 70 to 80% similar.
The middle-aged man wore a luxurious purple robe, and his square face was dignified like a knife or an axe. His thick sideburns were like two sharp swords piercing into the clouds.
The young man was also elegant and handsome, and he had a heroic aura. However, at this moment, everyone seemed as if they were facing a great enemy, and they urged their horses forward. They didn't stop at all, and they admired such a magnificent and beautiful scenery.
The usual grassland of Jialan was as quiet as the gurgling lake water. However, today, there was a huge disturbance.
Just a few minutes after this group of people passed by, another two groups of black-clothed men rushed past. They rode on all kinds of tall horses and Devil Beast mounts. In a flash, they disappeared without a trace.
Today's Jialan grassland was bound to be bustling with noise and excitement. The first two groups of people had just disappeared not far away from the city gate. At the same time, a group of more than ten people from the Xiao family and Wan Family, who were from the other two big families of Heavenly Cloud City, slowly walked out of the Jialan City.
Although the Jialan City was the closest city to the Heavenly Cloud City, it would still take about three days to travel between the two families.
Because of the family. There were still some matters that needed to be dealt with in the family, so they had to rush back as soon as possible. As a result, the two families did not stay in Jialan City for long.
After the group of people from Heavenly Cloud City left, about an hour later, two ordinary-looking young men slowly rode two ordinary horses out of Jialan City.
Xiao Jian rushed out of the Golden Summit Auction House in a hurry, as if his butt was on fire. On a street filled with snacks and grains. After buying enough dry food and having a nice lunch in the restaurant, Then he headed to the inn. After tidying up the inn and letting the Black eat and drink their fill, He casually carried a cloth bag on his back and took out a long black saber and slowly left the city with the Black. He walked towards the Devil Beast Mountain Range.
Outside the Jialan City, at the border of the Jialan's Great Grassland and the Devil Beast Mountain Range, there was a green bamboo forest mountain peak, so this place was also called Emerald Bamboo Peak.
At the foot of the Emerald Bamboo Peak, there were three groups of people standing about 30 meters away from each other. They were on high alert and were facing each other from afar.
"Friends, what is the meaning of this? Why are you blocking our path? What business do you have with us?"
"The patriarch of the Ye family in Heavenly Cloud City, Ye Longkai, if you are here for money, I can give you some money to drink!"
A middle-aged man sitting on a lion said in a loud voice.
"Haha, the patriarch of the Ye Family is generous and generous. However. . . We are not going to rob you this time. We only want one thing. If the master of the Ye family hand it over, I can let you all leave safely. I promise that I won't stop you. I will also apologize to you immediately. What do you all think?"
Ye Longkai frowned slightly. His facial expression changed, "Everyone, what do you want?"
"Alright, let's not talk about this openly. As long as Patriarch Ye hand over the martial skill that we obtained from the Golden Summit Auction House today, we will leave immediately and give Patriarch Ye some compensation. "
Ye Longkai had already suspected that this man was here for the martial skill, but when he heard him say it himself, he couldn't help but become furious. He thought that the Ye family was the leader of the three great families in the Heavenly Cloud City. In the past few hundred years, he had never been provoked like this. Immediately, he clamped his legs together and took a few steps forward, ready to rush towards the man at any time.
He turned around and called out to the young man sitting on the first lion, "Tian'er, quickly go to the Heavenly Cloud City and ask for reinforcements. This time, we must let these scoundrels know the consequences of provoking the Ye family! You escort the young master back, the rest of you follow me. Let these scumbags know the consequences of provoking the Ye family!! You want the things of the Ye family? That will depend on whether you have the ability and your life!"
Six men on horseback rushed towards the opposite party. There were more than a dozen men in black opposite them. The two men in the lead wore masks on their headscarves. They saw the two men who were fleeing towards the direction of the Heavenly Cloud City. He pointed at the two men in black beside him and said, "You two, quickly chase after that young man riding a lion. We must get him and his belongings. If you're caught accidentally, don't come back to see me! You should know what to do! "
At the end of the middle-aged man's words, it was already ice-cold.
"Yes, Family Head!" A young man and a middle-aged man. They shuddered. They ran away after receiving the order and soon disappeared from the sight of the crowd.
Ye Long Kai looked at the two people who had left with a trail of dust in his eyes. A trace of worry flashed across his eyes, and then it was replaced by a trace of killing intent. His side was filled with the elites of the clan. This time around, there were three elders who had gone out with him.
One of them was an early Essence Master, and the other two were intermediate Essence Master.
The rest were at the peak of the Late Period of Essence Warrior Stage.
The group of people rode on their horses, and it didn't take long for them to reach the peak of the Late Period of Essence Warrior Stage. The two sides had almost the same amount of combat strength as each other.
The two men in black who were leading the group were Essence Warrior Stage warriors. One of them was at the peak of Essence Master Stage, and the other was at the Late Essence Master Stage. There were also two Early and Mid Essence Master elders, and the rest were also at the peak of the Late Period of Essence Warrior Stage.
Ye Longkai was fighting against two of the enemy's leaders alone, but he didn't seem to be at a disadvantage. The two elders of his family were equally matched with the two men in black who were at the Essence Warrior Stage.
However, everyone subconsciously avoided it. The battlefield of Essence Warrior Stage moved to the side. After reaching the Essence Master Stage, origin energy would be released from the void, and the lethality of the attack would be greatly increased. It wasn't something these Essence Warrior Stage warriors could withstand.
All kinds of gorgeous origin energy danced in the air. Various sword energies and saber lights cut through the air and left scars on the ground and people's bodies.
Among them, Ye Longkai was the most eye-catching. As a peak Late Period of Essence Master Stage warrior, and with the golden light shining from his hand, it was obvious that he was an extraordinary long sword. He was fighting two opponents at the same time, but he didn't seem to be at a disadvantage. He even seemed to have the upper hand.
One of the two middle-aged men was holding a long blade, and his entire blade was fiery red. The other man was holding a pair of Separating Hook, which was a rather unconventional weapon. The pair of Separating Hook was glowing with a blue light.
At this moment, both sides' Essence Warrior warriors had suffered casualties. Ye Longkai was furious when he saw that his elite warriors had been injured. His long sword danced in the air, sending out even more sword qi and killing moves. He shouted at an old man who was fighting with an Early Essence Master man, "Fifth Elder! Kill all those Essence Warrior Stage bastards first!"
Fifth Elder understood what he meant, and he started to surround the Essence Warrior Stage warriors.
The two black-clothed men in front of them couldn't help but become somewhat anxious, and they frequently attacked.
"Ding! Ding! Ding!" The transparent air currents formed waves in all directions, shooting out in all directions. The longer they fought, the more furious the two sides became. The piercingly cold sword qi flew in all directions. The ground and trees were horrible to look at.
Both sides got off their mounts. They fought to the ground and gradually left the center of the open space. Going up to the top of the mountain, he saw Ye Long Kai. The man who was chasing the man who was at the peak of the Mid Essence Master was giving him a fierce chase. The man was forced to retreat. If it wasn't for the other Late Period of Essence Master Stage man in black clothes. . . The man who was supporting him from the side was probably killed by Ye Long's sword a long time ago.
The three of them were in the forest. With a flash, they appeared in a stone forest. There were some injuries on their bodies, and their clothes were no longer as elegant as before.
Ye Long's body was wrapped in golden light, and his entire body was emitting a type of majesty. The golden light behind his back made him seem like an angry Vajra. The long sword in his hand shot out golden light, and with a shake of his wrist, he charged towards his opponent.
Seeing that his opponent was still persisting, one of the men in black spoke: "Master of Ye family, why are you so stubborn!? As long as you hand over your martial skill now, I can still let bygones be bygones. "
Ye Longkai said with disdain. "Do you think you have the qualifications? Even if you want to leave now, it won't be that easy! You have offended the Ye family, so you should at least leave some compensation behind! "
" Hehe, looks like Patriarch Ye is very confident! Do you think you can defeat us? We didn't prepare anything. Now, your men outside should be finished by now. You are just a general without a leader. Do you think we will be afraid of you?" Just as he finished speaking, The two of them laughed proudly.
Hearing this, Ye Longkai's face turned ashen. He rushed down the mountain in a flash, but the two men in black did not let him do what he wanted. They also blocked in front of him with a flash.
Ye Longkai was instantly enraged. His entire body was wrapped by a brilliant golden light. A layer of hazy golden light lingered on the surface of his body. The longsword in his hand also seemed to be made of gold. Golden light shot out in all directions. At the tip of the sword, about three feet of sword energy shot out. It was a golden sword technique, and golden light shot out in all directions.
Ye Longkai let out a loud shout, and with a flash, his longsword waved in the air. Golden light shot out in all directions, and it dazzled everyone's eyes. The long sword flashed. As if it had disappeared, it appeared again, and appeared in front of one of the big men's chest.
Ye Long opened his wrist and the golden sword qi shot out "Xiu!" It flew out with a sound. Even the air was broken. "Puff!" Although the black-clothed man had already tried his best to dodge, However, the golden sword qi still pierced through his arm, piercing through his arm. After flying out, he still flew backwards for a distance. After passing through a large tree several zhang away, he slowly dissipated.
The black-clothed man felt pain. He quickly retreated with his arms crossed, and cold sweat flowed down his forehead.
When the sword qi had just pierced through the black-clothed man's arm, Ye Longkai also stamped his foot on the ground. The mountain rock shattered, and with a flash, he thrust his sword forward. Before the black-clothed man could react, the long sword deeply stabbed into the arm that had just been pierced by the sword qi. The long sword pulled outwards, and the black-clothed man's entire right arm fell down from his shoulder.
Behind Ye Long Kai, the sound of waves crashing against rocks suddenly rang out. The black-clothed man, whose entire body was wrapped in a blue halo, could be seen. In a flash, he appeared behind Ye Longkai, the parting hook in his hand. The blue halo turned into a huge blue wave in front of him. The huge wave soared into the sky and swept towards Ye Longkai. It wrapped around Ye Longkai and a pair of parting hooks came out from the wave.
Ye Longkai's hands that were holding the Separating Hook extended outwards. They were blocked by Ye Longkai's hazy halo, but still "Gengci!" With a sound of breaking, four deep blood grooves were left on Ye Long Kai's back.
Ye Longkai's expression changed slightly. He gritted his teeth, and a huge wave appeared under his feet. He looked deeply at the two of them, and with a flash, he ran down the mountain.
The two middle-aged men in black also changed their expressions slightly and continued to chase after him, shooting down the mountain.
As soon as Ye Longkai arrived at the foot of the mountain, he found that only the two elders on his side were barely able to stand. The rest of them were already lying in pools of blood. Even the Fifth Elder was heavily injured and protected by the Fourth Elder.
A group of people dressed in green appeared among the other party's group.
Among them, there were two Yuan Qi fluctuations in their bodies. Ye Longkai keenly discovered that they were also at the Essence Master Stage.
As soon as Ye Long appeared, the two elders who were surrounded by the crowd also noticed him. The two of them shouted, "Patriarch, leave quickly! We have been ambushed! Don't worry about us, leave quickly!" The heavily injured Fifth Elder shouted.
"Ling, you and the Patriarch can leave together. I'll cover the rear. Even if I die today, I'll drag someone down with me!"2
After he finished speaking, a thick earthen yellow color flashed on his body.
"Ling, Patriarch, you should leave quickly. You must avenge me in the future!"
"Quickly retreat, be careful that he's going to detonate the essence crystals!" Origin Crystals were a place where Origin Power was stored in an Essence Master's body, and it was also condensed from the essence of Origin Power. It was a sign that one had reached the Essence Master.
The black-clothed man and the azure-clothed man retreated frantically. However, the Fifth Elder was even crazier.
His entire body was wrapped in an earthen yellow color, and he pushed the Fourth Elder in the direction of Ye Long. With a flash of his body, he pounced forward, hugged a black-clothed man, and stabbed his two heads into his flesh with all his might. The black-clothed man crazily kicked the Fifth Elder, causing blood to flow out of his mouth. He gritted his teeth and held on.
"Bang!" Blood and flesh splattered, and the two of them exploded into blood and flesh that filled the sky. In the explosion, two men in black shot out from the forest. They were the two leaders of the men in black.
Ye Long Kai and the other man turned around and climbed onto their respective mounts. Their eyes were blood-red as they glared angrily at the black clothed men.
"You guys just wait. I, the Ye family, am going to take revenge crazily! I want all of you to die together with the Fifth Elder!"
After saying that, he glanced at the crowd once again before turning around and leaving.
Looking at the two people who had left, a black-clothed man asked, "Patriarch, what should we do?"
The two black-clothed men's expressions changed as they waved their hands and said: "Return to the clan. Be careful on the way and do not reveal any flaws. Anyone who sees you will be killed without mercy!"
After saying this, they also left in a cloud of dust. Only the ground that was dyed red with blood and broken limbs and flesh were left behind.
