Chapter 207 Rest
Chapter 207 Rest
A look of disdain appeared on Lin Feng's face, and he thought to himself, "They are just a mob." He glanced at those people with contempt, and was extremely disdainful of their strength.
Chen Xin'er's delicate figure followed closely beside him, her brows slightly furrowed, a trace of worry on her beautiful face, her heart filled with worry about the changes at home. Xu Tian's face was calm, his eyes constantly scanning the surroundings, not missing any trace of movement. Meanwhile, Chen Yu, the gifted Half-Step Grandmaster, had a stern expression, exuding a subtle aura of sharpness.
When they heard the younger brother mention that their boss was Hong Niu, Lin Feng and the other three shook their heads, a hint of disdain on their faces. Chen Yu said with even more disdain, "What Hong Niu? I've never heard of him. But if you want to touch our young lady, I'll have to teach you a lesson." His voice was as cold as the wind on a chilly night, carrying a hint of murderous intent.
Chen Xiner looked at those people, and a trace of pity welled up in her heart. She said softly, "Brother Yu, be gentle, they are just ordinary people." There was kindness in her eyes. She didn't want these people to be hurt too badly because of their greed.
Chen Yu tilted his head slightly and looked at Chen Xiner. A hint of tenderness appeared on his stern face. He said, "Don't worry, Miss, I'm just teaching them a lesson." His heart was full of respect for Chen Xiner. Now that the lady had spoken, he would know how to act in moderation.
At this moment, Hong Niu finally spoke, his hoarse voice like a broken gong: "Girl, you should worry about this kid first." With that, Hong Niu took up his stance, his sturdy arms tightly gripping the broadsword in his hands. The sword gleamed coldly in the moonlight, as if it could cut through anything. His eyes were red, filled with greed and ferocity, as if he had already regarded Chen Xiner as a piece of juicy meat.
Chen Yu watched Hong Niu's actions, a scornful smile curling his lips. He leaped from his horse with all his might, his movements as nimble as a cheetah. With a light tap of his toes on the horse's back, he soared forward like a nimble eagle. His figure was light and graceful, and in the moonlight, it resembled a beautiful painting.
Hong Niu thought he had a sure win, but watching Chen Yu's amazing skills, his eyes widened, and it felt like a thousand horses were running through his mind. He never imagined that this seemingly young boy could possess such terrifying strength.
Soon, Chen Yu flew in front of Hong Niu. Without the slightest hesitation, he launched a powerful kick. That kick contained such immense force that it seemed capable of shattering mountains and rivers. Hong Niu had no time to react before he was struck by the overwhelming force. His body flew out like a kite with its string cut, then fell heavily to the ground, rolling several times before he was still.
The younger brothers around were stunned by this scene. Their eyes widened, their mouths opened wide, as if an egg could fit in. They had never imagined that their boss, who they usually thought was so powerful, would be so vulnerable in front of this young man.
Chen Yu landed steadily on the ground. He glanced at the younger brothers around him with a stern gaze and said coldly, "Who else wants to come up?" His voice was like a judgment from hell, filling the hearts of those younger brothers with fear.
The younger brothers looked at each other, their legs trembling. Soon, all of them fell to their knees, begging for mercy. Their faces were filled with fear, and they kept knelt, begging for mercy.
Chen Yu looked at the younger brothers begging for mercy, but the murderous intent in his heart had not completely dissipated. He still wanted to teach them a lesson. At this time, Chen Xiner spoke again, "Brother Yu, let them go. Let them all go back." Her voice was soft, but it was full of unquestionable power.
Chen Yu had no choice but to give up. He looked at his subordinates and said, "Get lost! Get out of here before I change my mind." His eyes were filled with impatience; he didn't want to continue tangling with these people.
The younger brothers stood up as if they had been pardoned. A few of them quickly ran over to lift Hong Niu, then fled the scene in a panic. Their figures looked particularly miserable in the moonlight, like dogs that had lost their homes.
Lin Feng watched the men depart, frowning slightly. He said, "These people are just minor figures. There will definitely be more trouble later." He was filled with vigilance, knowing that this journey would not be peaceful. His gaze was deep, as if he could see through the danger hidden in the darkness.
Chen Xiner breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Fortunately, Brother Yu is here, otherwise I really don't know what to do." A smile appeared on her face, and that smile was as beautiful as a flower blooming in spring.
Chen Yu looked at Chen Xiner and said, "Miss, these are just some small minions, don't take them to heart. However, we still have to be careful, after all, the bounty is too tempting." There was a hint of worry in his eyes, he knew that the bounty of 100,000 Xuanjing coins would bring countless troubles.
Xu Tian said from the side: "Let's hurry up and get to the capital sooner, so that we can solve the problem sooner." His voice was steady and powerful, giving people a sense of security.
Lin Feng nodded and said, "It's so late, let's find a place to rest first. We don't know what dangers will come later." Although he was anxious, he also understood that when people and horses are exhausted, they must rest in order to better deal with the crisis later.
Xu Tian, Chen Yu, and Chen Xiner all agreed. They rode their horses towards a nearby town. In the town, they found an inn that looked relatively clean.
The lights in the inn's lobby were dim. The innkeeper was a chubby, middle-aged man. When he saw Lin Feng and the others come in, he hurried over and said with a smile, "Gentlemen, would you like to stay at our inn? We have clean rooms here."
Lin Feng nodded and said, "Prepare four upper rooms for us." His voice was steady, and he took out some Xuan coins from his pocket and handed them to the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper took the black coins, his smile growing even brighter as he said, "Please wait a moment, gentlemen. I will arrange a room for you."
After a while, the shopkeeper brought them to the room. Although the room was small, it was decorated quite warmly. Chen Xiner walked into the room and looked at the simple bed. A trace of fatigue welled up in her heart. She sat on the bed and sighed softly.
