Chapter 1986: Chapter 1965: Reinforcements (2)

"Trying to ambush?!" Xiao Hu was furious and slapped directly.

Bang.

Xiao Hu’s strength was absolutely overwhelming; one slap directly knocked the bartender to the ground.

The dagger in his hand dropped, producing a crisp sound as it hit the floor.

"Capture him!"

With a command from Xiao Hu, the two people beside him swiftly controlled the fallen bartender.

The other bartender who hadn’t been captured saw his companion taken down and, like a startled rabbit, immediately tried to run away.

"Don’t let him escape."

Seeing this, Xiao Hu immediately charged forward to continue the capture.

But the constant movement of people in the bar created considerable obstruction for him.

And in this brief moment, the bartender clenched his fists and then suddenly opened them.

Purple smoke immediately arose around him, and he instantly vanished within it.

Xiao Hu and his men hadn’t anticipated that the opponent would have such a trick up his sleeve.

Completely unexpected.

By the time they dispersed the smoke, the man was long gone.

"Where is he?"

"No idea, he’s disappeared."

Xiao Hu frowned deeply, and when he turned to check on Chen Yang, he found that Chen Yang was also gone.

In fact, just as the smoke was released, Chen Yang had already left his original spot and pursued him.

...

At the back door of the bar, two figures rushed out one after the other.

The bartender’s cultivation wasn’t impressive, but his speed in escaping was remarkably fast.

During his escape, he didn’t forget to turn back and release hidden weapons to disrupt Chen Yang.

A silver needle came piercing through the air.

Chen Yang twisted his head, effortlessly neutralizing it!

"Trying to run? Is that possible."

Chen Yang suddenly accelerated and continued the chase.

Just as he was about to catch up, he suddenly sensed danger from the side.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh.

Several more silver needles came piercing through the air, aiming directly at his side.

And one of them blocked his path forward, forcing him to retreat to avoid the silver needles.

There’s no other way.

He temporarily halted his attack, executed a backflip, and perfectly dodged the silver needles coming from the side.

"Who?"

Chen Yang perfectly evaded the attack and immediately glanced towards the direction from which the silver needles were shot.

He saw three shadowy figures disappear in a flash.

They climbed the wall and escaped.

It seemed those three shadowy figures were specifically stationed there for support.

Both the Secret Bureau and the Five Poisons Cult acted with caution, stationing three experts outside the bar to protect the two underlings.

"Chen Yang, where are they?"

At this moment, Xiao Hu also rushed out from the bar.

"There are people from the Five Poisons Cult providing support outside; they ran in that direction." Chen Yang pointed towards the direction those three escaped.

"Damn, these guys are really cunning." Xiao Hu gritted his teeth, feeling disappointed.

But he didn’t give up; instead, he took out a walkie-talkie and began speaking to the other side.

He reported everything that happened at the bar.

The Secret Bureau had laid out a plan nearby, anticipating possible incidents, so even though the members of the Five Poisons Cult had temporarily lost their trace, Secret Bureau members were converging in the area.

There’s still hope to catch them.

"Chen Yang, how about we split up and pursue them?" Having reported the situation, Xiao Hu quickly suggested to Chen Yang.

"Alright."

Chen Yang initially did not plan to pursue further, but seeing Xiao Hu wasn’t willing to give up, he decided to give it a try.

After they spoke, Xiao Hu immediately took the lead and set off.

Their strength only reached the Qi Cultivation Realm, so they naturally went to chase the solitary bartender.

Chen Yang went alone to pursue the three who had launched the ambush.

He roughly guessed that after climbing the wall, the three might head towards a secluded place.

Thus, after climbing the wall, he immediately followed a quiet path for pursuit.

The three’s strength wasn’t weak; logically speaking, their speed should be fast, so the chance of catching up was slim.

But who could have expected.

He chased for a few hundred meters and actually saw the three.

The three, dressed in black, were walking in an alley about a hundred meters ahead.

Perhaps they thought Chen Yang wouldn’t pursue them, so their movement was slow.

Upon seeing the three men, Chen Yang immediately pushed his speed to the limit, rushing forward hoping to resolve the issue with one strike.

The three had good perception abilities, and when Chen Yang was about twenty meters away, they suddenly detected the threat coming from behind.

"Oh no, he’s caught up!"

One of them shouted in surprise, quickly dodging.

But it was too late; Chen Yang was instantly in front of them, raising his hand and delivering a punch.

The three only had the strength of the Peak of Qi Cultivation and had not broken through to the Spirit Gathering Realm.

How could they be a match for Chen Yang?

Even combined, the three found it difficult to withstand the might of Chen Yang’s punch.

Boom!

Spiritual Energy rippled, and the three fell to the ground!

"Ah!"

"Pfft!"

The one in the center couldn’t withstand the powerful impact, directly spitting blood from Chen Yang’s punch, lying on the ground.

The two on either side continuously retreated until they finally steadied themselves after hitting the wall.

"You... are so strong."

One of them said, eyes full of shock.

Chen Yang calmly replied, "This area is filled with our people; you won’t escape today."

The three were startled again, exchanging glances as if discussing something.

Regarding these three, Chen Yang did not have plans of deadly intent; capturing them alive was more important.

Chittering...

Suddenly, the man lying on the ground began to tremble violently, emitting the sounds of joints moving and colliding.

Next, countless poisonous black spiders crawled out from beneath him.

In mere seconds, the whole alley seemed painted with black spiders.

Chen Yang furrowed his brow.

Not that these black spiders were that formidable, but such a situation had never been seen before, causing slight astonishment.

How could such an ordinary-sized body accommodate so many poisonous spiders?

The Five Poisons Cult is truly sinister.

"What good is your strength? Before us, you are merely slightly stronger nourishment."

The one lying down, blood spilling from his mouth, crawled up from the ground with a sinister curve at his lip.

He unleashed the poisonous spiders, while the two behind him immediately followed with mysterious hand gestures, circulating Spiritual Energy around them.

A moment later, the entire alley was filled with black Spiritual Energy.

Simultaneously, a purple smoke erupted from their bodies, transforming the alley into a world of poison.

Chen Yang, having no prior understanding of the Five Poisons Cult, didn’t expect the opponent to have such tactics.

Momentarily caught off guard, he inhaled a breath of purple smoke.

Seeing Chen Yang inhaling the smoke, the three immediately laughed.

"Haha, you’ve inhaled our Bewitching Smoke, how could you possibly be our match?"

Chen Yang furrowed his brow deeper.

Because he clearly felt that after inhaling the purple smoke, his own Spiritual Energy seemed weakened.

The Five Poisons Cult lives up to its name.

Always capable of releasing strange maneuvers, causing people to unknowingly fall into their traps.

"Attack together, take him down."

Although the three were injured by Chen Yang’s punch, at this moment, they seemed emboldened, even wanting to attack together, aiming to subdue Chen Yang.

"Alright."

The other two agreed, immediately circulating Spiritual Energy to launch an attack on Chen Yang.

The one who fell stood in place, using strange gestures to control the poisonous spiders on the ground, attempting to engulf Chen Yang like a tidal wave.

One of them frantically released black poisonous mist, enveloping Chen Yang within.

The remaining one was the main attacker.

As his Spiritual Energy circulated, his once pale hands instantly turned jet-black like ink.

Entirely poisonous.

A common person touching it would likely die instantly.

"Five Poisons Palm!"

The man shouted angrily, his black palm suddenly striking at Chen Yang.

His later-stage Qi Cultivation strength, coupled with the poison on his palm.

If faced by a typical Spirit Gathering Realm, it surely wouldn’t be able to withstand, leading to an unexpected downfall.

But unfortunately, they were facing Chen Yang.

"What a bunch of monsters."

Chen Yang murmured, also circulating his Spiritual Energy.

A blue seal appeared in his hand, meeting the attack head-on.

Bang!

The two palms collided, causing a large ripple.
