Chapter 620: An Ambuscade

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Yun Yang's wrath was still ablaze as he swung his arms repeatedly.

"Pang, pang, pang…" A dozen wine pots crashed into the third prince unceasingly, making the man shriek and moan in pain and blood.

Shangguan Lingxiu's expression and gaze were icy as she watched the revolting prince quietly. Softly but clearly, she said, "Whether such a day comes or not… at least, that person will never be you!"

She then turned and returned to the room. Sitting with her back facing the door, she no longer moved. She did not even want to cast another glance at the third prince, not even once. The person made her think that even a glimpse would be a dishonor to her eyes. Absolutely horrendous!

"Take him and get out of my sight! Immediately! At once! Quickly!"

"Bang!"

Yun Yang threw the last wine pot, the ceramic shattering precisely on the third prince's gory head. He was brimming with murderous intent as he emphasized what he said, "Let me see him again and he'll die right here - even if God Himself were to plead for him!"

Everyone could clearly see the killing intent that was about to condense into a solid form on him. They knew that it was no idle threat. Actually, just by looking at the third prince's barely alive state, one would be able to ascertain that Yun Yang could definitely do what he had promised.

If he dared to beat up the prince and cause such serious injuries, he would dare to kill him too! What was so surprising about it?

In addition, if the third prince was not sent for treatment, he would have died there and then without Yun Yang able to do anything more.

Before they turned around, Yun Yang had slammed the door shut with a loud bang.

The third prince's subordinates panicked, afraid that the third prince would actually die here. However, before they could decide on their course of action, suddenly…

Just as Yun Yang shut the door, suddenly…

"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh…"

The sound of the air being sliced apart rang out consistently.

A series of cries came from outside the door while a constant tattoo of "knock, knock, knock", the noise of hidden weapons embedding themselves on the door, rang out loudly as well.

There were sharp rays of light flashing upon the door that had just been slammed shut. Countless merciless secret weapons had struck the door like a storm while their sharpest points were glinting with a blue tint. It was apparent that the weapons which were deployed as an ambush had been dipped with lethal poison.

Yun Yang frowned.

He could see instantly that someone wanted to kill him. As for those people outside the door, there was a ninety-nine percent chance that they had all died; they were simply unlucky enough to have been embroiled in the ambush.

The killer's target must be Yun Yang! The angle of the attack told him as much.

His furious door slam had, in all likelihood, caused the ambush to fail. The timing was coincidental enough that he was fortunate to avoid the secret weapons, leaving them stuck in the door.

"The Redolent Inn indeed, this wooden door is actually made of steel wood. I am fortunate that it is of such excellent quality."

Listening to the knocking sound that came from the weapons being planted in the door, a ghost of a smile appeared at the corners of Yun Yang's lips.

In actual fact, he was quite shocked and there was even a lingering sense of fear.

The ambush was just short of brilliant. He had actually felt a tinge of danger before it happened and that, too, had disappeared instantly. He had not sensed any hint of killing intent. If it were not for the closing of the door that had helped blocked the ambuscade, Yun Yang knew that he would have been injured to a certain degree, even if he was not severely harmed to the point of death; moreover, such an outcome would be due to the magical power of the Endless Divine Art that was unafraid of any poison in this world.

In other words, the suddenness of this ambush would have been able to take down ninety-five percent of this world's cultivators!

This begged another question. Assassins who could hide their killing intent before they struck were pinnacle presences. Who would have wanted to kill him, given that each of the assassin organizations was hardly able to fend for themselves?

"Pow!"

The steel wood door, a substantial buffer for Yun Yang that had absorbed several rounds of secret weapon suddenly shattered. A meteor hammer about the size of a human head then bolted in like a comet, going straight towards Yun Yang's head.

If it had actually connected, an explosion would have erupted, causing both sides to perish!

Yun Yang reacted spontaneously. With a palm strike, the meteor hammer shot backward with a boom and returned even faster than when it had come. Upon successfully deflecting the blow, Yun Yang's right hand took hold of Shangguan Lingxiu before he hopped out of the window like a fish into the water.

With a loud bang and fluttering wooden splints, both of them escaped outdoors.

At the same time that they had fled the Redolent Inn's top floor, countless secret weapons engulfed the hall once again like a storm; had Yun Yang and Shangguan Lingxiu hesitated a single moment more, both of them would have drowned in this storm of weapons.

Just as Yun Yang hopped out of the window, he caught sight of glimmering saber lights that were advancing upon him from left and right, like a siege.

"Hoo…" Yun Yang who was in midair exhaled as two rays of saber light shot out from his sleeves. The sabers he was using were only refined steel sabers that had been cultivated a hundred times but he had used the Saber Truth: Destiny Blade to complement those commonplace sabers.

Left and right, his sabers were like dragons of the ocean and sky, soaring and swimming freely.

"Clang!"

"Clang!"

With two metallic rings, Yun Yang held Shangguan Lingxiu as they made a quick twirl in the air as if they were one, successfully fending off the two saber lights. Yun Yang simultaneously cultivated a sweeping technique to cover the both of them before finally landing on the bustling street.

It looked like a silver ball weaved from dazzling saber light had descended into the human realm in all its brilliance.

"Boom!"

The roof of the top room blew apart as seven to eight black-clothed forms appeared atop the tower. The moment they appeared, two of them were already unlimbering Deicide Bows. Almost concurrently, two slivers of light flew towards Yun Yang, as if they had been freed of the constraints of time and space.

The other five to six people raised their arms consecutively, creating shards of dark light that shot towards Yun Yang like lightning.

A galore of weapons - sabers, swords, and spears - appeared in unison. It was obvious that these were the attackers' best weapons.

The damage that could be inflicted by flying needles and daggers was no longer adequate, given the current distance. They were not lethal. Instead, the men tossed heavier weapons which actually carried the threat of death.

After the weapons had been thrown, the men did not let up. Springing up and pouncing viciously, it was evident that they were afraid that such an attack would fail to kill Yun Yang and intended to make certain of the kill by working together.

In the same instance as when they pounced, three more men clad in black and wearing masks appeared at the rooftop of the building standing on the opposite of the Redolent Inn. Each one of them held a Deicide Bow in their hands as they pulled and released the bows without hesitation. Three blinks of light later, it was another three shots, and then another three shots!

The Deicide Bows were being used to release an unceasing showers of arrows!

Distinct only by their gradation and batch, the arrows darted towards Yun Yang, who was facing an avalanche of weapons.

The murder plan was simple yet effective. There were not many cultivators in the Tianxuan Continent who could escape such a solid set-up, yet the ambushing assassins were not done yet; they were merely beginning to get warmed up…
