1016: Chapter 109 No Escape 1016: Chapter 109 No Escape In the heart of Nia Country’s capital city, Bujada, within a certain villa.
The Poison Venerable of the Heavenly Alliance, Hua Guikun, had spent the past few days recuperating, and the toxins inside his body had been largely expelled.
He sat on the sofa in the villa’s living room, his expression exceedingly dark.
Opposite him sat Xu Shengnan, missing a right leg.
His right leg had been bandaged and treated, but when he saw the empty space where his leg had been, his anger began to boil uncontrollably.
After a long silence, Poison Venerable Hua Guikun finally spoke, “Xu Shengnan, it’s fair to say that you completely botched this operation.
Not only did you let Shen Mingxuan and others escape, but you also buried Ye Chenfeng alive underground?
So, you’re saying Ye Chenfeng has almost no chance of surviving?
Do you realize our young master wanted to torture Ye Chenfeng personally?
You are simply useless.”
Xu Shengnan, being at the initial stage of Saint Level, remembered the times in the Obliterate Heavenly Alliance when no one would dare speak to him this way.
Moreover, the person now calling him useless was only at the peak of Venerable Level.
His emotional state was already fragile due to the loss of his leg and the death of his son; hearing Hua Guikun’s words, his palm clenched violently on the couch.
Moments later, Xu Shengnan took a deep breath and relaxed his fists.
Now that he had betrayed the Obliterate Heavenly Alliance and botched the mission in Nia Country, if he were to rub the Heavenly Alliance the wrong way, he would no longer be welcome in either the Heavenly or Obliterate Heavenly Alliances.
Ultimately, Xu Shengnan would become a universally despised outcast.
With a forced smile on his face, Xu Shengnan said, “Mr.
Hua, what should we do next?
How can I fix this mess?”
Seeing Xu Shengnan, a Saint Level initial stage powerhouse, groveling before him gave Poison Venerable Hua Guikun immense satisfaction.
He waved his hand and replied, “You’re a member of the Heavenly Alliance now.
Let me take care of the next steps.”
Hua Guikun picked up a cup from the coffee table, took a small sip of tea, and continued, “Nia Country, this small nation, is already under our control.
I have had Nia Country block the roads in Bujada and issue a warrant for Shen Mingxuan and associates online.
Thus, Shen Mingxuan and his group will absolutely not be able to escape from Bujada.”
“Mr.
Hua, what if Shen Mingxuan alerts the people from the Obliterate Heavenly Alliance?
If they come here to the rescue, things will really get complicated,” Xu Shengnan asked further.
“Don’t worry about that.
I have already asked Nia Country’s authorities to disrupt communication in Bujada.
For the next few days, it will be impossible to make calls or contact other countries through the internet.
Moreover, three Venerable Level initial stage masters who came with me are here.
Now that Ye Chenfeng is dead, these three should be more than enough to handle Shen Mingxuan and the others.
They have already started searching for clues in Bujada.
Once someone from Nia spots Shen Mingxuan or his group, they will immediately contact these three.”
“Mr.
Hua, you’ve really thought of everything!
Please continue to look out for me in the Heavenly Alliance,” Xu Shengnan said.
Once humbled, the second and third times came naturally, and his smile no longer looked strained.
Hua Guikun waved his hand and responded, “It’s not about looking out for you.
Although I can handle Shen Mingxuan and others, Ye Chenfeng was someone the young master wanted.
Whether the young master will blame you, I cannot guarantee.
Now, you should go back to Huaxia Country.
Nia Country no longer needs you.”
After bidding farewell to Poison Venerable Hua Guikun, Xu Shengnan left the villa, leaning on his crutch.
Hua Guikun watched his limping figure with a dark smirk, muttering, “What a waste.
Ye Chenfeng died just like that, he got off too easily.”
…
Meanwhile, Shen Mingxuan, Lin Xinyi, Cheng Dahhu, and Xiao Liyuan had originally planned to contact the Obliterate Heavenly Alliance after leaving the site where the Primordial Heart Fruit grew.
Unfortunately, it seemed communication was blocked, and they were unable to reach the Obliterate Heavenly Alliance.
Then, they saw the warrants issued for them online, which explained their communication issues.
Now, leaving Bujada seemed nearly impossible.
Furthermore, they noticed many people covertly observing them on the streets of Bujada, fueling an ominous premonition.
Cheng Dahhu suggested, “Mingxuan, perhaps we should return to where the Primordial Heart Fruit grows.
Since we can’t contact the Obliterate Heavenly Alliance, are we just going to abandon Brother Chenfeng?
He was buried alive trying to save us.
We must at least retrieve his body if he’s dead.”
Knowing it was the only course of action, Shen Mingxuan agreed, “Alright, let’s go dig up Chenfeng.”
Several hours later.
Shen Mingxuan and Lin Xinyi, along with their group, returned to the location where the Primordial Heart Fruits grew underground.
Just as they were preparing to start digging the soil, they suddenly felt three powerful auras approaching from a distance.
About a minute later, three figures appeared in front of Shen Mingxuan and the others.
These three figures were three men in their thirties, who had come to Nia Country with the Poison Venerable Hua Guikun.
They were Venerable Level Initial Stage experts.
Among them, the tallest was named Zhao Li’an, another bald headed man was Li Mengfei, and the last whose size rivaled Wu Dalang was Zheng Kejun.
After Shen Mingxuan and the others appeared on the streets of Bujada, the people of Nia Country saw them and immediately reported their whereabouts to the authorities.
Thus, Zhao Li’an and the other two had tracked them down to this location.
The tallest, Zhao Li’an, looked at Shen Mingxuan and the others and scoffed, “One Venerable Level Initial Stage, one Saint Level Peak, and two Saint Level Middle Stage, this doesn’t pose any challenge to the three of us.”
The shiny-headed Li Mengfei then said, “I heard one of your companions is buried alive here?
What, you want to dig out his body?”
Zhao Li’an and the others hadn’t participated in the previous battles between the Heavenly Alliance and the Obliterate Heavenly Alliance, and Hua Guikun hadn’t explained Ye Chenfeng’s strength to them, so they only knew that someone had been buried alive here.
Looking at Zhao Li’an and the other two, Shen Mingxuan’s brows furrowed tightly.
Facing three Venerable Level Initial Stage experts, the four of them definitely were no match.
Zhang Mingxuan couldn’t help but feel bitter.
Could today really be the day they died here?
Xiao Liyuan mustered the Saint Level Middle Stage aura within him and said, “Mingxuan, we have no path of retreat now.
It’s very likely we’ll die in this battle, but since brother Chenfeng died because of us, if we can die in the same place as him, we’ll have done right by him.”
The elegantly cold Lin Xinyi tied her waterfall-like black hair with a band, readying herself for a death struggle.
At that moment, she couldn’t help but picture Ye Chenfeng, especially the scene in the Obliterate Heavenly Alliance’s bathhouse where Ye Chenfeng saw her naked.
“Pah!”
The straightforward Cheng Dahhu spat on the ground and roared, “Bring on the fight, I, Cheng Dahhu, have never been afraid of anyone!”
…
Meanwhile, on the other side,
when the three Venerable Level Initial Stage experts from the Heavenly Alliance arrived at the location of the underground Primordial Heart Fruits.
Beneath the ground.
Ye Chenfeng had already reburied both the top-quality Primordial Heart Fruit and the underground Primordial Heart Fruits.
After all, if he picked them right away, they wouldn’t last long, and since he was unaware of the situation outside, he was not in a hurry to unearth all the Primordial Heart Fruits.
