Chapter 1099 I Won’t Tell You
Before, facing the relentless pressure from the Sang family, Shangguan Yan and Shangguan Yong were almost desperate. They could not escape the pursuit of the three opponents no matter what. As a result, suddenly, Qingyang and Ma Xingchen suddenly appeared to help, and killed Sang Yuan with one move.
Shangguan Yan was very familiar with these two people. Their strength was not very high, but in the current situation, let alone Qingyang and Ma Xingchen, any passerby could be their life-saving straw.
Only by experiencing the fear of death can you experience the joy of survival. Seeing that the two guards of the Sang family were attracted by Qingyang, Shangguan Yan and Shangguan Yong both felt the joy of surviving a disaster, but they also knew in their hearts that it was not the time to relax.
Qingyang and Ma Xingchen were not strong enough to defeat the two guards of the Sang family. Although they could temporarily hold back the two guards, they would be defeated sooner or later if they just took the beating without fighting back. Once Qingyang got into trouble, everyone would be in a life-and-death situation again, so they had to defeat the two guards together while Qingyang could still hold them back.
Shangguan Yan and Shangguan Yong did not have time to breathe a sigh of relief before they attacked the two guards again. As for Ma Xingchen, his strength was too different from the others, so there was no benefit in getting to the front. He could only use long-range attacks from the periphery and look for gaps to launch sneak attacks.
Qingyang alone tied up most of the energy of the two guards of the Sang family. With the cooperation of Shangguan Yong and Shangguan Yan, as well as Ma Xingchen's attack outside, the result was obvious. The situation was quickly reversed, and the situation of the two guards of the Sang family became increasingly bad.
But none of them dared to escape. Failure to protect the young master would be fatal to any guard. Once they abandoned the master and fled, they would not only face a large-scale wanted list by the Sang family, but their family members who stayed in Tongguan County would also suffer. Only by catching or killing the culprit could they survive.
The two guards of the Sang family fought to the death, but their overall strength was not as good as Qingyang and others. Under the siege of four people from Qingyang, they gradually showed signs of defeat. A quarter of an hour later, the Sang family's sixth-level Qi Refining guard was hit head-on by Shangguan Yan when he was unable to dodge. Then Qingyang seized the opportunity to cut him with a sword at close range, and he fell to the ground and died.
Not everyone can face death with equanimity. Seeing the young master and his companions being killed by the other party, the fear of death made the remaining Qi Refining Perfection cultivator timid. No matter how strong the wanted list of the Sang family was, that would be a matter for the future. His family might be killed, but now he was going to die, so why would he care so much? After his family was gone, he could be free of worries.
When he finally thought it through and made up his mind to escape, it was too late. Four people surrounded him from all sides, and it was not easy to get away.
Moreover, Shangguan Yan and Shangguan Yong hated this man for attacking from behind and killing another guard of the Shangguan family, which led to the current situation. How could they let him leave easily? The two of them used all their skills to drag the Sang family's Qi-refining perfect guard to the spot.
In order to escape, the Sang family guard also fought for his life. The battle on the field became more and more intense. The sound of the fight even attracted Ma Shi and others who were recuperating in the cave.
Although Ma Shi was injured, he could still attack from a distance outside. The battle on the field turned into a chaotic situation of seven or eight people fighting one in a blink of an eye. In this case, the outcome of the battle can be imagined. After half an hour, the Sang family guard was exhausted. After being bombarded by Shangguan Yong and others, there was not even a complete corpse left.
This battle was extremely fierce. Shangguan Yong, who was already injured, was even more seriously injured. He was almost hanging on with only one breath. The others were also injured and exhausted. They didn't even have the strength to walk. Even Qingyang was injured for the first time because he was hit by the Sang family guards in the same place on his back. Fortunately, the injury was not very serious. His physical condition in the Jindan realm recovered quickly and would not affect his movements.
After the battle, everyone sat on the ground for a long time. After recovering some physical strength, they got up and cleaned up the battlefield. The bodies of Sang Yuan and the two guards were burned, and the traces of the battle were covered up. However, everyone was injured and exhausted. Ma Xingchen's original plan to continue the journey in the afternoon was ruined.
Anyway, they are now many people. Even if one or two enemies catch up at this time, they have a certain degree of confidence in dealing with them. Everyone simply doesn't leave, continues to recuperate in the cave, and continues to travel the next day.
After arranging Shangguan Yong to recuperate in the cave, Shangguan Yan called Qingyang out alone. Looking at the man in front of her, Shangguan Yan didn't know what to say. She never thought that the person who saved her life at the critical moment was actually this person who had nothing to do with her.
After a long time, Shangguan Yan said: "Thank you this time."
Qingyang did too many things like this. He didn't take the other party's gratitude seriously at all, but smiled and said: "Isn't what I said right at the beginning? My favor was not valuable at that time, but it may be valuable in the future. You gave me Mihe Powder and I saved your life. I have repaid this favor, right?"
Shangguan Yan originally thanked Qingyang solemnly, but was amused by Qingyang's words. Suddenly, a sly smile appeared on her face: "You wishful thinking, you took the initiative to save my life, and I didn't ask you to do it. How can my favor be repaid so easily?"
Qingyang was immediately angry and said: "You are so unreasonable!"
Shangguan Yan put on a serious face and said, "I'm not a gentleman, so of course I can be unreasonable. There's an old saying that only villains and women are hard to raise. Unless you tell me your origins, or teach me your body-building skills that can block the attacks of Qi-refining perfect cultivators."
Qingyang smiled at Shangguan Yan and said, "Do you really want to know?"
Shangguan Yan nodded and said, "Of course, but you have to tell the truth and don't fool me with made-up stories. I'm not that easy to fool."
"But I'm not a gentleman either. The more you want to know, the less I'll tell you. Let's see what you can do, hahaha..." Qingyang waved his hand and turned to walk towards the cave.
After being teased by Qingyang, Shangguan Yan was immediately a little furious. She looked at Qingyang's back and said with gritted teeth: "How can a small place like Mayi Town have a person like you who can block the attack of a Qi Refining Perfection cultivator with just your physical body? Your background must be extraordinary. Humph, it doesn't matter if you don't tell me. Sooner or later, I will investigate it thoroughly."
