Without waiting for Jieyu and the others to stop him, Zhou Yu leaped several times, pushing his way through the crowd in the hall.
He successfully reached the outside of Old Master Jie's room.
At this moment.
The Shi family head had already arrived with his men.
The two groups were locked in a fierce battle!
Seeing Zhou Yu approaching, Jie Shishi quickly waved, "Divine Doctor Zhou, over here!"
Zhou Yu followed the sound and rushed over.
The area outside Old Master Jie's room was crowded with people.
There were martial artists brought by the Shi family and martial artists arranged by the Zhu and Jie families.
They were all mixed together!
Zhou Yu didn't care about anything else; anyone who blocked his path was killed!
He fought his way all the way to Old Master Jie.
Only then did he discover that the two were being heavily protected and were temporarily safe.
"Divine Doctor Zhou, how is the situation in the hall?" Jie Shishi asked anxiously.
Originally, Jie Shishi and Old Master Jie were playing chess.
Who knew that dull thuds would be heard from outside the courtyard.
Opening the door, they saw that the Shi family head had brought martial artists and climbed over the wall!
Fortunately, the martial artists of the Zhu and Jie families reacted quickly.
They rushed to defend.
Before the Shi family's martial artists could even descend, they were thrown out!
However.
The Shi family had too many martial artists, and they were all masters of dark energy.
The martial artists of the Zhu and Jie families were no match for them.
In a short while.
Twenty to thirty of the Qi martial artists successfully infiltrated!
Jie Shishi and Old Master Jie were initially protected inside the room, with doors and windows tightly shut.
But the fighting outside was too intense.
Coupled with the sheer number of Qi martial artists.
More and more people broke through the defenses, heading straight for Old Master Jie!
There was no choice.
The two had to come out and stand in the open space, surrounded by protective martial artists.
"The situation in the hall is okay, only twenty Qi martial artists broke in."
"Old Master, didn't I give you a walkie-talkie? Why didn't you call!"
Zhou Yu asked while killing the Qi martial artists.
Old Master Jie smiled bitterly, "I dropped it on the ground while escaping just now, there wasn't enough time."
Fine.
Zhou Yu felt a surge of relief. Fortunately, he had noticed the small number of Qi martial artists in the hall and realized something was wrong.
Otherwise, Old Master Jie might have already been taken hostage!
The three of them fought and retreated, trying to rejoin the hall.
However.
As they fought.
Zhou Yu noticed.
The number of Qi martial artists in the courtyard remained at twenty to thirty.
And no one was rushing in from outside the wall!
Instantly, Zhou Yu's face turned pale, and he grabbed Old Master Jie's arm, saying, "It's a trap!"
As soon as the words fell.
The screams from the hall became incessant!
Zhou Yu no longer dared to hold back his strength. With one hand protecting Old Master Jie and Jie Shishi, he used the other to quickly deal with the enemies in front of him.
About half an hour later.
Finally, all the Qi martial artists outside Old Master Jie's room were killed.
When the three arrived at the hall.
It was already a scene of carnage!
The guests present today were either lying in pools of blood or had been bound by the Shi family's martial artists.
And in the center of the hall.
Jie Yu, the Zhu family head, and Zhu Ling'er were all tied to chairs.
The Shi family head stood with one foot on a table, twirling a dagger.
"Finally here?" the Shi family head sneered.
Seeing the three of them, Jie Yu immediately shouted, "Go! Hurry and go!"
"There are over fifty Qi martial artists here!"
However.
As soon as Jie Yu finished speaking, he was slapped by the Shi family head!
*Slap—*
The Shi family head sneered, "Want to leave? Then their lives will be forfeit."
Zhou Yu stood in front of Old Master Jie, frowning, "What do you want?"
"Nothing much, you three discard your weapons and walk over, perhaps your lives can be spared!" the Shi family head arrogantly declared.
He had originally intended to attack Old Master Jie's room.
After all, controlling Old Master Jie meant controlling the entire Jie family!
But he hadn't expected.
The Zhu and Jie families had assigned most of their martial artists to protect Old Master Jie.
This caused a delay in the attack.
Seeing this, the Shi family head didn't hesitate.
He immediately abandoned those still in the room and led the rest directly to the hall!
Just as the Shi family head had predicted.
Most of the Jie family's martial artists were sent to protect Old Master Jie.
Those in the hall could barely resist twenty Qi martial artists.
But once the Shi family head arrived with a large force, these people were completely defenseless!
The Shi family head, with his men, took control of everyone in the hall with ease.
Waiting for Zhou Yu to walk into the trap!
"Is that all?" Zhou Yu's peripheral vision scanned the surroundings, buying time discreetly.
The Shi family head chuckled, dragging his knife across Zhu Ling'er's face.
He said extremely arrogantly, "I'll count to three. If you don't put down your knife, I'll start killing!"
"Three."
"Two."
Before the Shi family head could utter the last number.
*Clang.*
Zhou Yu directly dropped his knife.
Then he raised his hands, indicating he had no weapon.
"Is this acceptable now?" Zhou Yu gritted his teeth.
The Shi family head smiled with satisfaction, signaled two Qi martial artists to step forward, and brought the three of them to his front.
Zhu Ling'er's eyes were red and swollen, tears streaming down her face. She shouted, "Hurry and go! He won't let us go!"
"Don't come over!"
Unfortunately.
Zhou Yu didn't listen to her at all.
Instead, he led Old Master Jie and Jie Shishi, under the guard of two Qi martial artists,
step by step towards the Shi family head.
As they walked, the two Qi martial artists also bound Zhou Yu's hands to prevent him from harming anyone.
"Zhou Yu, Zhou Yu, the Zhang family incident in Yunhai City, you did that, didn't you?" The Shi family head examined Zhou Yu from head to toe, revealing a disdainful smile.
Zhou Yu neither admitted nor denied, but simply stared at the Shi family head.
That icy gaze made people feel uncomfortable all over!
The Shi family head clenched his fist, but quickly released it. "You've got a tough mouth. I'll see if you're still tough later!"
With that, the Shi family head gave a look to the Qi martial artists around him.
They immediately took out a bottle of blue reagent and approached Zhou Yu.
"This is a newly developed product by the Shadow Organization, it can suppress the true qi within a martial artist's body."
"You're lucky to be among the first to experience the marvels of this serum."
The Shi family head laughed maniacally, as if Zhou Yu were already a fish on a chopping board!
Jie Shishi and Old Master Jie struggled frantically.
They both shouted at Zhou Yu.
"Divine Doctor Zhou, hurry and escape! Don't let him inject you!"
"Run, don't worry about us!"
They knew that Zhou Yu was not weak and had some skills.
If it weren't for so many people,
Zhou Yu alone might have been able to contend with the Shi family head!
If Zhou Yu were actually injected with the suppressant, he would truly be finished!
Zhou Yu gave the two of them a reassuring smile.
Then, without moving, he allowed the Qi martial artists to inject the suppressant into his body!
