Chapter 683 Vast as the Sea
Chen Xuan glanced towards the entrance upon hearing the words and saw someone staring at them. It was undoubtedly someone left by Scorpion, monitoring them.
He smiled faintly and said, "If we pack it up, it'll be cold. Reheating it will affect the taste."
Xue Chuan nodded in agreement. "Indeed."
Seeing that Chen Xuan and the others insisted on staying, the waitress sighed and said no more.
She merely shook her head, thinking Chen Xuan and his companions were too overconfident. Even if they could fight, could they take on a hundred people alone?
In the face of immense power, people always seemed so insignificant. One had to remember that Scorpion's subordinates were no ordinary individuals.
Soon, Chen Xuan and his group finished their meal and walked out of the Blue Mountain Western Restaurant.
The henchmen who had been waiting at the entrance rushed forward as soon as Chen Xuan was about to leave. One of them pulled out his phone and made a call. "Brother Scorpion, they're leaving. Are you here yet?"
"Leaving? Heh heh, they aren't going anywhere. We'll be there soon!"
A sinister laugh echoed from the phone.
After hanging up, Scorpion pocketed his phone.
On the street, a massive crowd was gathered, all armed with choppers and steel pipes. Countless more people were joining their ranks.
These were all Scorpion's men, ordinary office workers or small business owners in their daily lives. However, at the slightest hint of trouble, Scorpion's call was their command.
"Big brother, that brat definitely won't escape!"
"With so many of us, we could drown him with a single spit!"
"I reckon he'll be scared shitless when he sees how many of us there are."
Scorpion narrowed his eyes, gazing into the vast night, a sinister smile playing on his lips.
The vast crowd surged forward like a hurricane. Surrounding shopkeepers hurriedly closed their doors.
Soon, the immense crowd arrived near the Blue Mountain Restaurant.
"Big brother, they're there!" Suddenly, a henchman pointed towards a few figures emerging from the Blue Mountain Western Restaurant.
"Let's go meet him!"
Scorpion nodded in agreement.
Yes, with so many people, those few would probably be scared half to death!
Outside the Blue Mountain Western Restaurant.
"Let's go, we should head back," Xue Chuan stretched.
Mo Xiaoxue rubbed her belly and nodded like a pecking chicken.
Chen Xuan's gaze, however, suddenly focused on an old man in a Taoist robe, the attire of a feng shui master, standing on the street.
Judging by his appearance, this old man bore a resemblance to Master Hu and He Xianggu from before. Chen Xuan's heart stirred. Could he be from Fenglong Mountain?
But he quickly dismissed the thought, as many people were surrounding the old man, queuing up for photos. After each photo, they would leave a ten-yuan bill for the elder.
"Boss, is there a problem?" Xue Chuan frowned, also glancing at the old man.
He also sensed that the old man was not ordinary.
"So, it's a street performer. It might be a misunderstanding."
Chen Xuan smiled and shook his head. "Let's hurry back, it's getting late."
Just as Chen Xuan and his companions were about to drive away, Feng Tianqi, who had been meditating with his eyes closed, suddenly snapped them open, his eyes gleaming. He took a step forward, and everyone felt a blur before their eyes. The old man had vanished.
When the old man reappeared, he was already in front of Chen Xuan and the others.
"Chen Xuan, several disciples of my Fenglong Mountain have perished because of you. What crime do you deserve?"
Feng Tianqi stared coldly at Chen Xuan, his expression indifferent.
Hearing this, Chen Xuan immediately understood the man's identity. It seemed his guess was correct; this man was indeed from Fenglong Mountain, and his appearance here was to seek revenge.
"If you want to touch Brother Xuan, you'll have to get past us first!"
The usually languid Xue Chuan and Mo Xiaoxue immediately became highly alert, their gazes fixed on Feng Tianqi with vigilance!
Feng Tianqi glanced at Xue Chuan and Mo Xiaoxue and snorted, "It seems you have accomplices as well! Then we shall eliminate you all!"
"Seeking death!"
Xue Chuan could no longer hold back. He threw a punch, his powerful explosive force tearing through the air.
Mo Xiaoxue, on the other hand, moved like a phantom, disappearing from sight in an instant. Her footwork was exceptionally swift, making her difficult to track without keen eyes. At this moment, Mo Xiaoxue had already appeared behind Feng Tianqi, a dagger in her hand, its cold gleam flashing.
Chen Xuan's eyes lit up.
Both Mo Xiaoxue and Xue Chuan had made significant progress. Initially, Mo Xiaoxue and Xue Chuan had only just broken through to become first-grade internal energy grandmasters. Now, they possessed the strength of eighth-grade grandmasters, and their burst power far surpassed that of experts at the same level.
Bang!
Feng Tianqi threw a punch. He was clearly not a martial arts expert. He collided with Xue Chuan, staggering back a few steps before regaining his composure.
At this moment, Mo Xiaoxue's ghostly figure had already struck, stabbing Feng Tianqi in the shoulder with her blade. Blood gushed out, and Feng Tianqi winced in pain.
"Wait!"
From a distance, Scorpion, who was preparing to cause trouble for Chen Xuan and his group, saw this and his pupils constricted.
His gaze was fixed on the battle raging at the entrance of the Blue Mountain Western Restaurant. He had never expected that the little loli he had just tried to flirt with was a killer, and the man he wanted to retaliate against was a formidable martial arts expert!
If it were him, he would have been long dead facing the attacks of Mo Xiaoxue and Xue Chuan.
No, no, it must be an illusion!
He shook his head vigorously, unwilling to believe it.
"What's wrong, boss?"
The henchmen beside him were oblivious. With their eyesight, they couldn't discern what had just happened.
"Hmph, what's so great about that? Boss, if we rush them now, we can kill that guy!"
"Don't rush. There are still many people around. It's not appropriate to be too ostentatious."
Scorpion coughed twice, finding an excuse to save face.
The scene that followed made Scorpion's heart pound with fear, and he secretly exclaimed.
At this moment, Feng Tianqi, after taking a punch from Xue Chuan, had cracks in his chest bones. Furthermore, Mo Xiaoxue's dagger was coated with a paralyzing poison. Feng Tianqi was in tatters, his clothes ripped and torn, like an elderly person abandoned by their children.
Feng Tianqi was also greatly surprised. He had initially thought Chen Xuan was a master of feng shui and mystic arts, but he hadn't expected Chen Xuan to have powerful martial arts experts by his side.
"Do you still want revenge?" Chen Xuan looked at Feng Tianqi and smirked.
"You think this can deal with me? Hmph, mere trickery!"
Feng Tianqi snorted coldly, suddenly pulling out several yellow papers from his sleeve. He chanted incantations, and a mysterious power surged forth. Those yellow papers flew up and hovered above Feng Tianqi's head.
As Feng Tianqi chanted, intricate black runes appeared on the yellow papers.
Chen Xuan watched with curiosity. This was the first time he had seen such a method of drawing talismans. Normally, people drew talismans with cinnabar, and more powerful feng shui masters used their vital blood for their runes.
He glanced at Xue Chuan beside him. Xue Chuan was also from the mystic arts school and had some knowledge.
Seeing this, Xue Chuan shook his head, but his expression was wary. He felt that Feng Tianqi was not simple.
Meanwhile, Feng Tianqi had finished drawing the talismans. He reached out, and the talismans hovering above his head instantly flew back into his palm. He spat out a mouthful of blood and slammed it onto his own body.
A mysterious power instantly surged into Feng Tianqi's body. The wound on his shoulder, inflicted by Mo Xiaoxue's dagger, had already scabbed over in the blink of an eye. Moreover, Feng Tianqi's entire aura had changed...
Vast as the sea!
