Supreme Dragon Martial Soul-Chapter 229: Ambush! No Escape Even With Wings!

No one expected Luo Cheng’s attitude to be so unyielding when facing Yuan Kang.

It was utterly head-to-head confrontation!

"Nonsense! Everyone saw you plunder our wealth that day. Are you still trying to deny it?"

A Crown Prince Hall disciple stepped forward with fierce indignation.

He had also participated in the siege against Luo Cheng that day!

"Too arrogant! Brother Yuan Kang, don’t waste words with him. Teach him a lesson—strip him of his clothes and see if he still dares to talk back!"

"Trash! Hand over Senior Sister Han Xuan’s belongings right now!"

One after another, the Crown Prince Hall members glared at Luo Cheng with murderous intent.

With Yuan Kang, a Third Layer Tongxuan Realm expert, present, they were naturally emboldened.

"Brother Yuan Kang, kill this piece of trash already!"

Han Xuan stared at Luo Cheng with clenched teeth and venomous hatred flickering in her eyes.

That day, Luo Cheng had publicly slapped her in front of thousands of people!

He had humiliated her in front of Qi Guyun, the man she admired—a grudge as deep as life and death!

Heh!

Yuan Kang raised his hand, silencing the others, and his chilling gaze fixed on Luo Cheng.

"For uttering just one word: ’Leave,’ you’ll pay the price today!"

Boom!

As soon as he spoke, Yuan Kang’s body flashed, appearing right in front of Luo Cheng, and launched a finger attack.

Whoosh!

Finger Strength, sharp like a sword, pierced through the air with an ear-piercing whistle, aiming straight for Luo Cheng’s throat—vicious and deadly!

Luo Cheng, already prepared, blocked with his palm.

Pow! The air vibrated intensely. Luo Cheng staggered back several steps, his gaze turning completely icy.

Seeing this, Han Xuan arched her brows high and mocked:

"Trash, keep showing off if you dare! Don’t think that having a bit of strength means you can act insolent! Any random senior from our Crown Prince Hall could crush you to death! Get on your knees!"

Oh?

Luo Cheng narrowed his eyes, looking at Han Xuan:

"It seems you’re still bitter over your defeat last time? Too bad your skills are too weak. You’ll never have the chance to avenge yourself."

"Don’t think that some beauty can excuse your arrogance here. Keep spewing nonsense, and I’ll make you spit out every tooth in your mouth!"

Han Xuan was stunned that Luo Cheng still dared to talk back. Furious to the point of madness, her face turned utterly venomous, and she shrieked, "Brother Yuan Kang, kill him for me! If you help me kill him, I’ll do anything you ask!"

Initially enraged and ready to strike, Yuan Kang’s eyes lit up upon hearing this.

"What are you doing?!"

A stern voice came from outside the crowd.

Four Elders approached steadily.

Seeing them, Yuan Kang furrowed his brows and his gaze flickered, as if he’d thought of something. He stepped aside and said to Luo Cheng:

"You may leave."

"Brother Yuan Kang! We can’t let this piece of trash just walk away!"

Han Xuan’s face twisted with rage as she tried desperately to stop him, her eyes glued to Luo Cheng.

"I have my own plans!"

Yuan Kang shook his head.

Luo Cheng swept his gaze across the group, chuckled coldly, and turned to walk toward the Outer Sect’s boundary.

Watching his retreating figure, Han Xuan’s face was full of frustration. "Brother Yuan Kang, why let that trash leave?"

Yuan Kang chuckled, "Junior Sister, be patient. If we take action here, we won’t be able to kill him outright. If he’s only wounded or crippled and misses the Outer Sect Tournament, it would ruin Brother Qi Guyun’s plan."

Han Xuan snapped, "The tournament is more than half a month away! I can’t wait that long! I want him dead right now!"

"That’s not difficult," Yuan Kang replied with a faint smile. "He’s heading toward Beast Taming Peak. I suspect he’s leaving the sect. If that’s the case, then next year this day will be his death anniversary. Brother Cui, Brother Lin, follow him quietly and make sure he doesn’t notice you."

"Yes!"

Two Crown Prince Hall disciples quickly darted after Luo Cheng. ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com

Not long after, one of them returned, visibly excited:

"Brother Yuan, you guessed right! That brat took a horse at Beast Taming Peak—he’s definitely leaving the sect! Brother Lin is tailing him now."

"Heh, fate is truly on our side!"

Yuan Kang smiled faintly, then turned his gaze toward Han Xuan:

"Junior Sister, do you mean what you said earlier? If I help you kill Luo Cheng, you’ll agree to anything?"

Han Xuan hesitated for a moment before nodding, her eyes filled with a murderous glow.

Yuan Kang had pursued her for quite some time, but she felt no affection toward him.

After the Martial Arts Square incident, her dreams of Qi Guyun had been shattered. Now, all her thoughts were focused on killing Luo Cheng—nothing else mattered.

"Good!"

Yuan Kang was overjoyed.

Han Xuan’s tone sharpened: "Let’s head out immediately. Don’t let that brat escape!"

Just as Yuan Kang was about to move, he stopped abruptly: "Wait—I’ll go and call Mo Yang!"

Someone was surprised: "It’s just Luo Cheng. With Brother Yuan here, killing him should be as easy as turning your palm. Why call Brother Mo Yang?"

Yuan Kang shook his head and replied calmly: "Luo Cheng alone may not be a match for me. However, he carries Brother Jin Min’s Purple-Blue Soft Armor—a top-tier Three-star Treasure Armor—and has cultivated Mist Shadow Step. If he’s determined to escape, I can’t guarantee I’ll catch him!"

Han Xuan nodded heavily, her gaze sharp as a blade, fixed in the direction Luo Cheng had departed:

"Then call more brothers and sisters! This time, we must ensure there’s no way out for him!"

"Anyone who dares provoke Crown Prince Hall will face only one end: death!"

"Exactly! Let’s go—don’t let him get away!"

A group hurriedly set out.

Outer Sect boundary area.

Luo Cheng mounted the Flame Jade Lion and left the sect directly.

Traveling from Xuanyuan Sect to Linjiang City meant crossing Luoyan River. By ferry, it would take two to three days.

Taking the land route, though, with the Flame Jade Lion’s speed, he could arrive in a day.

In the depths of the sprawling wilderness, the Flame Jade Lion appeared like a glowing flame, leisurely moving through the valley.

Luo Cheng sat on its back, deep in thought.

"Someone is a hundred steps behind me..."

Since his advancement to Tongxuan Realm, Luo Cheng’s Perception had sharpened considerably.

Now, with careful sensing, he could discern movements within a radius of 150 steps. The moment he left the sect, he’d noticed he was being followed.

"These people truly don’t give up! This one must be the scout; there should be others trailing behind."

"Perfect! If it’s death you seek, don’t blame me for what happens next."

Luo Cheng sneered coldly, tugged at the reins, and directed the Flame Jade Lion to maintain a steady pace toward an area devoid of people.

An hour later.

The air grew damp.

Misty waves stretched endlessly as the vast Luoyan River appeared ahead.

Luo Cheng reached the river’s edge, allowing the Flame Jade Lion to drink water, while discreetly sensing his surroundings.

Hm? They’ve come!

Suddenly, Luo Cheng’s brows lifted.

A rush of galloping hooves approached rapidly.

Without turning around, Luo Cheng imagined their presence vividly in his mind.

There were eleven of them!

Among them were four Third Layer Tongxuan Realm martial artists, including Yuan Kang!

"Three Third Layer Tongxuan Realm Early Stage fighters, and one at Middle Stage! Quite the lineup!"

Luo Cheng smirked coldly, a sword appearing in his hand.
