400: Chapter 400 [I Won’t Give Up Easily] 400: Chapter 400 [I Won’t Give Up Easily] His eyes were filled with extre terror, and he couldn’t believe this was real.
Li Yang slowly lowered his head, staring in disbelief at the bronze ancient sword protruding from his chest.
The sword’s blade glimred faintly, with blood flowing down without staining it—a truly perfect sword.
Ye Chenfeng, standing in front of him, laughed and said, “I told you staying in the ancient tomb decreases one’s intelligence, and you believed it?”
It turned out that it was Cheng Huanjie who had thrust the bronze ancient sword into Li Yang’s body.
“So you…
you guys were deceiving ?” Li Yang squeezed out a few words through his teeth.
“Pfft!”
Cheng Huanjie suddenly yanked out the bronze ancient sword and viciously said, “That’s for calling an old hag!”
With a thud, Li Yang’s body collapsed, his eyes full of unwillingness.
“Divine King, we underestimated you.
But as I am dying, let warn you—your opponent is very, very strong, be careful!
I betrayed my brothers and will atone for it soon.” Li Yang said with his last ounce of strength.
Cheng Huanjie glanced at Ye Chenfeng and sighed, “A person’s words are kind when they are about to die.
Although he betrayed you, I guess he’s now full of regret!”
But Ye Chenfeng ignored her and exclaid, “Stop him quickly!”
This shout left Cheng Huanjie and the other two confused.
“Hahaha, it’s too late.
Since I can’t have the Dragon Vein, none of you will live!” Li Yang’s face twisted as he suddenly laughed.
“Kill!”
Ye Chenfeng lunged forward, delivering a straight punch to Li Yang’s mouth.
The trendous force turned Li Yang’s head to the side, crushing his face into a bloody ss.
Yet despite this, it was still too late.
Just as Ye Chenfeng’s fist fell, a deafening explosion echoed beside his ear.
“Run!”
Without a second thought, Ye Chenfeng grabbed Cheng Huanjie’s hand and began to sprint, pulling Bai Jie and Ouyang Qingcheng along the way.
“Boom boom boom…”
The ground behind them kept collapsing, flas soared into the sky, the earth trembled incessantly, and even the ancient tomb above them started to cave in, as if aiming to destroy the entire structure.
This was undoubtedly Li Yang’s doing.
During his solo actions, he had planted micro-bombs throughout the ancient tomb, with the detonator hidden in his mouth, a tiny device concealed between his teeth.
Li Yang was a smart man.
He had considered the possibility of dying in the ancient tomb long ago, hence the setup.
Ye Chenfeng had noticed the detonator in Li Yang’s mouth at the last mont, but it was still too late.
“What are you doing?
The only exit is behind us; we’ll end up in the lava.” Cheng Huanjie shouted, knowing the one exit was in the opposite direction.
The desperate Ye Chenfeng glared at her, “If you think you can go back, be my guest!”
“The Dragon Vein!” Ouyang Qingcheng muttered.
“Miss Ouyang, you’ll be dead, what use is the Dragon Vein?” Ye Chenfeng snapped at her.
The collapse behind them beca increasingly severe, with stones and debris falling from above.
If it weren’t for Ye Chenfeng and the others, ordinary people would have died several tis over by now.
Passing by the area where Gan Luo had refined the Elixir of Life, Ye Chenfeng glanced sorrowfully, feeling as if his heart was bleeding.
He had planned to take all of Gan Luo’s precious elixirs, but now that dream shattered.
“What now?
We can’t keep running like this; we’ll be buried eventually!” Cheng Huanjie anxiously asked.
“A dead end never appeared without a way out.
I’m not going to die easily!” Ye Chenfeng smiled.
“You can still smile at a ti like this!” Cheng Huanjie looked at him, exasperated.
Ye Chenfeng’s lips curled into a smile, and he picked up the pace, running swiftly.
Though it seed like a desperate escape, Ye Chenfeng was actually following a specific path.
That path was marked by the stray dog that had cleverly left signals earlier.
Hence, Ye Chenfeng trusted this route laid out by the stray dog.
“Don’t enter that tunnel.
Going in there is a death wish!” Cheng Huanjie warned.
The ancient tomb was vast, even she dared not venture into so areas carelessly.
The pitch-black tunnel ahead seed like the bloody maw of a dormant beast, posing extre danger.
Moreover, this entrance was incredibly hard to find, making Cheng Huanjie wonder how Ye Chenfeng found it under such perilous circumstances.
At first glance, Ye Chenfeng also found it extrely perilous.
The faint aura emanating from within signaled danger.
However, having no other choice but to follow the path the stray dog had picked, he entered.
After entering the tunnel, Ye Chenfeng felt more confident as the path was sloping upwards, indicating they were heading towards the surface.
The other three felt a surge of hope and continued running after Ye Chenfeng.
They had no idea how long they ran, their legs feeling as if they were filled with lead, but they didn’t stop.
“There’s light ahead!
Be careful, everyone!” Cheng Huanjie warned vigilantly.
Ye Chenfeng, however, showed signs of joy and charged ahead.
The other three exchanged strange looks but followed him anyway.
“Xue’xue, it really is you guys!” Before they even saw him, Ye Chenfeng’s voice reached Chu Qingxue and Chu Qingfei.
The two were startled and stopped, looking in disbelief at the approaching people.
Chu Qingxue still held the exhausted stray dog in her arms.
“Ye Chenfeng?
Brother?”
Chu Qingxue and Chu Qingfei spoke slowly, as if trying to confirm.
“It’s , not a ghost!” Ye Chenfeng smiled.
“Brother!”
Before Chu Qingxue could react, Chu Qingfei dashed forward and hugged Ye Chenfeng tightly, as if trying to ld into him.
Chu Qingxue stood there, feeling the sa impulse to run up and hug Ye Chenfeng.
A few days apart felt like centuries.
“Qingfei, be good!” Seeing the dirt-streaked Chu Qingfei, Ye Chenfeng couldn’t help but gently touch her hair.
Chu Qingxue, seeing this, hesitated to speak.
Ye Chenfeng flashed a ghostly smile, gently disentangling from Chu Qingfei and approaching Chu Qingxue, also stroking her hair.
Previously, if any man dared to touch her hair, Chu Qingxue would definitely slap his hand away.
But now, she didn’t resist at all, acting like a docile kitten, seeming to enjoy it.
“Miss Chu?”
At this mont, Ouyang Qingcheng and the other two caught up, seeing the Chu sisters and couldn’t help but be surprised.
Ye Chenfeng noticed Cheng Huanjie’s eyes held a look of reverence and devotion towards Chu Qingxue, the sa as the old monk from the Zen Temple, and beca suspicious.
“Who is this?” Chu Qingxue naturally noticed Cheng Huanjie and couldn’t help but ask.
“Rumble…”
The ground started to shake again.
“Let’s leave here first!”
This ti, Ye Chenfeng held Chu Qingxue with his left hand and Chu Qingfei with his right, leading the way.
