Chapter 215 Huang Family 2 Ghosts
Chapter 215 Huang Family 2 Ghosts
The spatial rift is located in the center of the ancient city. From a distance, it appears as a tall building that has not been completely destroyed, resembling an ancestral hall.
This central location, with its relatively intact architecture, is sure to attract many treasure hunters.
Sure enough, most of the sounds of fighting in the city came from the center.
Ye Kang and Dai Huanhuan strode into the city, and as soon as they entered, a strong sense of presence enveloped them.
Ye Kang's skin instantly broke out in goosebumps, and he quickly looked towards the ancestral hall in the very center.
At the top of the ancestral hall, a winged stone lion stands proudly.
Ye Kang's eyes narrowed immediately.
"I didn't see this thing when I looked outside just now, did I?"
Dai Huanhuan was also shocked and said, "No! There is not only a killing formation here, but also an illusion formation! From the outside, you can only see the illusion, but you can only see everything after you go inside."
As she spoke, she walked back to the city gate. As soon as she reached out, a transparent barrier rose up and bounced her back.
"Outrageous! There's another layer of trapping formation!"
Dai Huanhuan now regrets it. Why did she have to play the hero? She should have just stayed outside.
Ye Kang glanced at the array wall and tried to break through it with brute force, but he failed.
He then looked at the stone lion in the ancestral hall. Although it had no eyes, Ye Kang felt that the stone statue was staring at him.
"Could the lion be alive?"
Ye Kang's sudden words made Dai Huanhuan swallow hard.
"I don't know, but the key to the formation should be in that ancestral hall. We need to go in and take a look."
"Alright, but we'll have to change our identity."
With a flick of his finger, Ye Kang activated the Thousand Illusions of the Spirit Butterfly, transforming once again into Song Xian's appearance.
Dai Huanhuan was completely stunned and exclaimed, "Where did you get this disguise technique? It's so amazing!"
Ye Kang, on the contrary, became puzzled.
"It was found on Fan Shanyue's body, you didn't know?"
Dai Huanhuan shook her head: "As far as I know, his master didn't have this technique. It must have been his own good fortune. You've benefited from it all."
Ye Kang didn't say much and strode inside.
They hadn't gone far when two opposing groups of people appeared on the dilapidated street.
One side consisted of two White Lotus Cult members at the initial ninth rank, while the other side had three Azure Scale Guards. However, only one Azure Scale Guard was at the peak of the eighth rank, while the other two were only at the seventh rank, resulting in a significant difference in strength.
Upon seeing Ye Kang and Dai Huanhuan approach, the two White Lotus Sect members immediately burst into laughter.
"Oh my, two more scouts? Peak Rank 8, not bad. Hmm? What's up with the other one? How come he doesn't even have a Xiantian level?"
One of the tall, burly White Lotus followers spoke jokingly, while extending his right hand and twirling his fingers, on which he wore a blood-red knuckle duster that made a crisp friction sound as it twirled.
Another White Lotus follower, who was slightly thinner, immediately spoke up to remind him.
"Big brother, don't be mistaken, this guy is the one that Protector Black Bat specifically ordered to be killed."
"It really is! Song Xian, right? You're lucky, the two of us brothers got to do the first job."
"Brother, don't let your guard down. This guy killed Yan Chongke; he's a ruthless character."
"What a joke! Can anyone be more ruthless than us? What kind of trash is Yan Zhongke? Besides, Yan Zhongke is just one person, but there are two of us."
The tall cultist stared at Ye Kang with a wicked grin, his eyes filled with savage killing intent.
Before Ye Kang could speak, the three injured Qinglin Guards cried out.
"Song Xian! Escape immediately! We'll fight to the death to buy you time! Tell the White Stork Guard that the murderers are the two scoundrels from the Huang family!"
Although they didn't know each other, the three Qinglin Guards knew they couldn't escape and could only place their hopes on Ye Kang.
However, Ye Kang shook his head helplessly.
"It's no use, the city is trapped by the siege formation, and no one can get out."
"how come……"
The three Azure Scale Guards turned pale, their eyes filled with despair.
"It seems you have some knowledge, Lord Song. We two ghosts from the Huang family also know a bit about formations. If you cooperate with us to break the formation, it might allow you to live a little longer."
Huang Da Gui ripped off his mask, revealing a terrifying face covered in blood vessels.
Just as Ye Kang was about to deal with the two men, the system notification sounded.
【Ding】
[Mission Issued: Break Through the Formation]
[Task Reward: Comprehension]
……
He immediately curled his lips into a smile and said, "So it's the famous Second Young Master of the Huang family. I wonder how you plan to break the formation?"
Seeing Ye Kang's cowardly appearance, Huang Dagui said nonchalantly, "I have a brilliant plan. You two are just in time. Join these three guys and go scout ahead for me. Don't be too clever for yourselves. That stone lion is probably alive. We won't care if it dies."
Huang Da Gui spoke in a stern tone, directly issuing orders to the three pitiful Qinglin Guards.
The three of them were clenching their fists and gritting their teeth.
They'd never suffered such humiliation before, but now the other side was clearly stronger than them; disobeying meant certain death...
The peak eighth-rank Azure Scale Guard spoke up, "I'll go alone. Their cultivation is too weak; spare them..."
Before he could finish speaking, Huang Dagui's expression suddenly hardened, and he rushed in front of the man, punching him hard in the stomach with his right fist.
With a loud bang, the brass knuckles unleashed a burst of intense energy, smashing the Azure Scale Guard to the ground, causing him to feel a sharp pain in his abdomen.
He spat out a mouthful of blood, his eyes filled with resentment.
Two seventh-rank Qinglin Guards rushed over to help him up, repeatedly saying, "Don't do anything! We promised to scout ahead!"
Huang Dagui waved his hand, spat disdainfully, and then turned his head to look at Ye Kang provocatively.
"Hey Song, don't force me to take action again. Be a good boy and let's work together to break the formation. It's better for everyone this way. Otherwise, next time it won't just be a lesson."
Ye Kang nodded expressionlessly.
"That's right, breaking through the formation is the priority."
Huang Ergui pointed to the ancestral hall, gesturing for them to go over, but Ye Kang remained motionless as if he hadn't seen it.
Huang Dagui immediately nodded angrily: "Fine, fine, you want to play tricks on me? Didn't you hear me telling you to go scout ahead!"
He strode over, clenched his right fist, and unleashed a powerful aura from his knuckle duster, then swung his fist straight at Ye Kang's right cheek.
If that punch lands, my whole face will be ruined!
The three Qinglin Guards looked anxious. They couldn't understand whether Song Xian had gone mad. At this point, why was he still pretending? He should calm these two bastards down first. Why take the beating for nothing?
"Lord Song, please don't act rashly!"
The injured eighth-rank Qinglin Guard immediately spoke up.
At the same time, the brass knuckles were about to reach Ye Kang's head when, in the next second, Ye Kang raised his hand and threw a punch.
Huang Dagui couldn't help but sneer upon seeing this.
Wearing specially made brass knuckles, how dare he use his bare body to fight fists? Isn't that just courting death?
Then, their fists collided. Ye Kang had no weapon to enhance his fists; they were just pure fists, without any internal energy, martial arts techniques, or even any method.
However, at the moment of impact, a crisp cracking sound rang out, and a tremendous force of flesh, like a mountain collapsing and the earth splitting, surged toward Huang Da Gui's right arm.
The protective energy was like blank paper, and the brass knuckles shattered instantly. The residue was forcefully driven directly into Huang Da Gui's fist bones.
