“Kill ~~!”
Although Song Tao and the others were not as strong as He Yun individually, they were all ultimate fighters. Under the combined efforts of the group, they were still able to defeat He Yun.
In just 30 seconds, He Yun had several wounds on his body, and blood was flowing out.
The deepest wound was on his chest, almost pierced his heart. This was done by Song Tao.
Now that things had come to this, both sides were ruthless and did not show any mercy.
However, He Yun could only parry but not counterattack.
Several times, he wanted to escape, but the two archers in the distance, one in front and one behind, locked him in the middle.
The two archers were very good at controlling the distance between them. They maintained a distance of 30 to 50 meters. This distance directly eliminated the possibility of him launching a surprise attack.
However, it could also prevent him from escaping to the greatest extent.
“Huff—!”
In just a minute, He Yun was already panting. After all, fighting was much more tiring than simply running. It consumed a lot of physical strength.
Am I going to die here?
He Yun was unwilling to accept this. He had just seized the opportunity to go to the camp, so how could he die in such a place?
With that thought, his four limbs surged with strength again, forcing him to continue fighting.
“I don’t have the Tier 1 Coins with me. Even if you kill me, you won’t get them!” He Yun refused to give up.
“He’s dying! Don’t give him a chance to breathe!”
Song Tao’s eyes were filled with excitement. Just as he was about to take He Yun down, he sneered when he heard the other party speak.” Brothers, cripple him first. Cut off his limbs and leave him alive. Slowly interrogate him about the whereabouts of the first-tier coins!”
At this moment, an unforeseen event occurred.
“Roar!”
An earth-shattering roar came from afar.
Both sides were stunned.
“That king-level monster?!”
Everyone was shocked and at a loss.
He Yun was ecstatic. He did not expect Zhao Yu to save him at this critical moment.
“Not good! Hurry up and kill him!”
Song Tao did not have time to think about whether Zhao Yu was here to save He Yun. He had to kill He Yun before the other party arrived.
The others also knew that the situation was not good, and they all sped up their actions.
For a moment, He Yun was in a perilous situation, but at this critical moment, how could he admit defeat?
He endured several slashes and finally held on until Zhao Yu arrived.
Zhao Yu was speechless as he looked at He Yun who was surrounded and covered in blood.
“When I saw that signal flare, I guessed that something had happened to you!”
” I didn’t expect you to pull your hips so far. Looking at their attire, they must be your subordinates, right?!”
Zhao Yu said as he approached the group. Behind him was the familiar King-level monster.
“I didn’t expect that the person who came to save me was you!” He Yun’s face was bitter, but he said with some joy.
No one wanted to die if they could live.
” Haha, you haven’t given me the money you promised me yet. If I let you die like this, who am I going to talk to?!”
Zhao Yu laughed and quickly approached.
When the signal flare was launched, he had already guessed that someone wanted to kill He Yun.
After thinking for a while, he decided to save He Yun.
On one hand, it was for the ten thousand coins. On the other hand, it was also because of the matter of entering the camp that He Yun mentioned.
If someone else took control of the Wang Feng Valley, they would have to renegotiate. It was too troublesome.
“Damn it, stop him!”
Song Tao’s eyes were filled with shock and anger. He didn’t expect someone to disrupt the situation at such a critical moment.
And it was an unexpected person.
A person who had created chaos to the Valley twice.
At the same time, the long saber in his hand became even faster. He Yun tried his best to block it and kept retreating while guarding against the arrows of the two archers.
When the others heard this, there were indeed seven or eight people who came to block Zhao Yu.
Zhao Yu circulated a strange movement technique and easily avoided the attacks of the few people.
The two-headed ox snake monster chased after them and was in a state of anger.
When it saw a living person blocking its way, it immediately eliminate them.
The two-headed ox snake monster was too lazy to even bother with humans.
The towering snake head was like a shuttle at this moment, instantly biting off a man’s head.
The other bull’s head had its horns pointed downwards, directly smashing the two of them into pieces.
The other four didn’t dare to interrupt any longer. They hurriedly dodged to avoid death.
On the other side, Zhao Yu had also arrived in front of the battlefield between He Yun and Song Tao.
Song Tao saw that things were not going to work out, so he glared at Zhao Yu fiercely before turning around and fleeing to the side.
“Brother Xiao Long, thank you!” He Yun heaved a sigh of relief and forced a smile.
At this moment, he did not look well. His entire body was covered in wounds and bloodstains, making him look like a bloody man.
“Hurry up and find a place to heal. You are not allowed to die yet!”
Zhao Yu said casually. He turned around and chased after Song Tao.
That venomous glare was directly sentenced to death by Zhao Yu.
He knew that the other party hated him, but he still let the other party go. Wasn’t that looking for trouble?
At this moment, dozens of figures jumped out from the forest.
“Boss, we’re here to save you!”
Xie Zheng was startled by the scene before him.
He didn’t intend to profit from the situation but wanted to save He Yun at a critical moment to deepen the latter’s trust in him.
However, he hadn’t expected He Yun to be so vulnerable, becoming like this under the siege of Song Tao and others.
Especially now, that Xiao Long, the one with a grudge against their Wang Feng Valley and a practitioner of ancient martial arts, was the one to preemptively come to He Yun’s rescue?!
Xie Zheng was completely dumbfounded, never having anticipated Xiao Xiao Long would save He Yun.
As Xie Zheng and others arrived, Song Tao and his group had already scattered in all directions to escape.
He Yun glanced at Xie Zheng and the others, his face showing neither joy nor sorrow, and commanded: “I’m fine. Chase after Song Tao and his group. If they dare to rebel, I want them alive or their bodies, understand?!”
With He Yun order from a distance and ready to retreat at any moment, Xie Zheng’s heart sank by half.
He understood that in He Yun’s eyes, they were likely seen as opportunists.
This venture out not only failed to earn He Yun’s deeper trust but made him even more distrustful of them.
“Damn that Xiao Xiao Long, if not for you, how could it have come to this?!”
Xie Zheng cursed Zhao Yu, knowing staying any longer would only backfire, and immediately shouted:
“Boss, rest assured, we will capture Song Tao for your disposal!”
After saying this, he was the first to leave with his men.
In an instant, half of the group had left.
The remaining half were unsure of what to do next.
“Damn, Xie Zheng got ahead of us!”
The others also came to their senses and hurriedly left.
But there were still those who hesitated, seeing He Yun’s plight and harboring other unusual thoughts.
In the end, no one dared to make a move again and dispersed from the scene.
Observing the order in which that group left, He Yun silently took note.
Without a doubt, in his view, these people were no longer loyal to him.
Or perhaps, some were loyal, but most likely, they were not.
Among those who left earliest were relatively better; those who left last could almost be treated as traitors.
Without clear evidence of betrayal, he had no reason to act against them.
But in his heart, a thorn remained.
This left He Yun feeling melancholy.
He hadn’t expected that the confidants he had painstakingly cultivated would prove to be less reliable than an outsider at a critical moment.
He realized that if not for Xiao Long’s timely arrival, he might have died at Song Tao’s hands or been left severely injured.
Then, Xie Zheng and others, under the guise of coming to the rescue, would have killed Song Tao and his group, eventually forcing him to reveal the location of the first-order coin.
Heh!
He Yun chuckled coldly, realizing he had become complacent over the years in dealing with these matters.
“Indeed, there are no eternal brothers, only eternal interests!”
He was also clear that ‘Xiao Long’ came to his rescue purely because of the ten thousand coins and the chance to settle in the camp.
Otherwise, there was no reason for him to come.
“Whew—!”
He Yun took a deep breath, not feeling the pain from his wounds anymore but instead smiling:
“It’s not too late to discover the problem now!”
“No matter what the player behind the scene’s motives are, I will continue on, to find the truth!”
