Chapter 197 A Bizarre Situation

"That guy… is trying to intercept Alliance Master Tian?!"

Numerous thoughts flashed through Yang Diandian's mind as he rushed to Dou Hongyi's side.

As Dou Hongyi trembled in fright, Yang Diandian grabbed him by the collar.

"Dou Hongyi, what the hell is going on? Did you lure the Nuomian Gui (glutinous rice monster) here? What about Senior Ye? What have you done?!"

I'm also desperate.

Dou Hongyi shook off Yang Diandian's grip, his face full of irritation.

He was just taking the military officer to interrogate, but it turned out the military officer was the Nuomian Gui, and he almost lost his life.

He scrambled back, thinking of using Tian Wangchuan to buy some time, only to be kicked aside. Now, he's come to seek help from the real expert, Senior Ye.

But at this moment, Dou Hongyi had already seen Fang Yue leap down to stop Tian Wangchuan.

Could it be that these two ancestors have some conflict?

How did the entire martial competition become such a mess after he was only gone for a short while?

After exchanging a few words, the two understood what had happened.

Seeing that the Nuomian Gui in the distance had stopped chasing him and was instead chasing after Fang Yue and the others, Dou Hongyi breathed a sigh of relief.

Although Senior Ye ignored him, he instantly helped him draw the aggro upon appearing.

"As expected of Senior Ye, getting things done silently!"

Relieved, Dou Hongyi began to work with Yang Diandian to fight the strange entities and evacuate people.

The two held official positions, and there was no one with a higher status standing up on the scene for the moment.

The crowd quickly gathered around them, not to mention Lan Shan and Qing Si.

The gathering of peak combat power quickly formed a powerful force, barely resisting the offensive rhythm of these strange entities.

Although the scene was still chaotic, with many scattered soldiers fighting on their own, and the villagers without combat power fleeing in all directions, there was at least a semblance of resistance.

"Lord Hongyi!"

Yang Hongxia, escorted by Mang Liuzi and others, rushed to Dou Hongyi's side in a panic, requesting protection.

Dou Hongyi had no time to pay attention to her, but when Yang Hongxia mentioned Senior Ye, he froze instantly and allowed her into the protective circle, listing her as a protected object.

Mang Liuzi and others also benefited from this, gaining a temporary safe place in such a chaotic situation.

Yang Hongxia's mood was like a roller coaster ride.

From Fang Yue's rampage, rushing to fourth place in the martial competition, and then defeating and killing Tai Yuema in the duel.

At that moment, Yang Hongxia was trembling with excitement.

She seemed to see a bright future for the Great Yang Merchant Guild, and then Fang Yue made a move that almost made her pee her pants.

He actually stepped on the ice sculpture steps and charged towards the Heavenly Merchant Alliance Master!

This was too scary!

Yang Hongxia completed the transformation from trembling with excitement to trembling with fear in just a few seconds.

Her eyes went dark, and she almost fainted from fright.

Then the situation spiraled out of control. What she didn't expect was that Lord Ye's strength was so terrifying that he directly crushed and killed Luo Yijie and Wang Zhengzhi, the second and third ranked members of the Heavenly Merchant Alliance, and even beat Tian Wangchuan, the Alliance Master of the Heavenly Merchant Alliance, to the ground, forcing him to flee in a sorry state.

Was this still the guest elder she had hired? This was a god of war!

If the strange entities hadn't suddenly appeared, the Great Yang Merchant Guild would have directly reached the top and become the king of Chu Nuan City… or been directly executed.

Anyway, it was a rebellion, the kind where the victor is crowned and the loser is condemned.

Even now, the situation wasn't much different.

The only difference was whether Fang Yue could cut off Tian Wangchuan's dog head and unify Chu Nuan City.

If he failed, then their Great Yang Merchant Guild would have to wait to be buried with him.

Yang Hongxia trembled as she felt the pointing fingers and malicious gazes around her, and lowered her head, not daring to meet anyone's eyes.

Clearly, everyone was blaming Fang Yue for tonight's events.

They didn't dare to provoke Fang Yue, so naturally, they could only point fingers at Yang Hongxia.

Of course, if Fang Yue took Chu Nuan City in one fell swoop, the wind direction would naturally change by 180 degrees!

"Miss, be careful!"

Suddenly, Mang Liuzi shouted and yanked Yang Hongxia.

Then there was a clang as he used his sword to block some kind of attack.

Looking at the sharp iron block flying out, squeezing out a huge eye in the air, Yang Hongxia was stunned.

A strange entity…?

The number of strange entities and the intensity of the battle were such that some had already broken through the outer protective circle and impacted the people inside.

No… it should be said that as more and more people joined this team, the combat personnel responsible for guarding the outermost perimeter were becoming increasingly strained.

Yang Hongxia immediately realized that if this continued, this 'big ship' would capsize sooner or later.

There were only so many people who could fight these strange entities, and the crowd that needed protection was so large, almost seventy to eighty percent of the citizens of Chu Nuan City!

Clearly, even if Dou Hongyi and Yang Diandian absorbed the people from the Heavenly Merchant Alliance, they were already overwhelmed.

"Formation! Let Alliance Master Tian activate the formation in the city to fight the enemy!"

Yang Hongxia immediately thought of a solution and had Mang Liuzi remind Dou Hongyi.

However, Dou Hongyi shook his head.

"Tian Wangchuan can barely protect himself. Senior Ye wants his dog life in front, and the Nuomian Gui is besieging him from behind. Whether Tian Wangchuan can survive is another matter."

"Then what should we do?" Yang Diandian couldn't help but ask.

"Wait for them to decide the outcome. If Senior Ye wins, let him use the token to activate the formation! The formation can handle low-level strange entities, and it can suppress high-level strange entities, creating an opportunity for us to counterattack!"

Although Dou Hongyi looked weak and incompetent, he actually had some real skills to be able to sit in this position. He was very insightful in analyzing the situation.

"Are we going to sit back and watch the tigers fight? That's Tian Wangchuan! Shouldn't we join forces to deal with the Nuomian Gui, and then let the two reconcile, activate the formation, and deal with the strange entities in the city?" Yang Diandian said somewhat unconvinced.

But Dou Hongyi glanced at Yang Diandian as if he were an idiot and said, "Then go help them. I don't need you here."

"You!"

Yang Diandian snorted, didn't say anything, and moved away from Dou Hongyi, seemingly angered, and fought the strange entities even harder.

"Dou Hongyi means that we have to wait for them to decide the outcome before they can spare a hand to help us?"

"That's right! And… the battlefield over there is not at a level we can interfere with."

Dou Hongyi had a lot to say about this.

Whether it was the Nuomian Gui, whose methods were extremely strange and unpredictable, or Tian Wangchuan, who had stood above the heavens for so many years, or Senior Ye, who was once a Rain-ranked expert.

Any one of the three was at the pinnacle of Chu Nuan City, and there was no room for ants like them to interfere!
