Chapter 285: The Mantis Blocks the Road
A whistle sounded
Several men in black leapt down from the rooftops of the houses that adorned both sides of the lane Quickly, they dashed into the crowd of the young, brattish nobles, separating their nuh the middle The Qinian Unit had trained as spies for several years, and their ability to assess and react accordingly was pheno the kids that were upon theroup’s surprise, however, the kids did not tuh it was slightly aard and without true finesse, the kids were able to land on their two feet It seeht well
”Screw you! Cut theroup was about 14 years old, but he had eyebrows of aged aggression Despite seeing that their opponents outnumbered them, they were unafraid These kids had been out on the streets for a long ti could strike fear into their hearts They grasped their swords and to the nearesttheir blades wildly in a bid to cut thehts
The subordinate that had been targeted kneho his noble foes were He saw his nearest assailant swinging like a madman, with no concern for his own defense His chest was free to strike, but the man in black did not raise his oord The opponent looked so young, and his fighting style painted hihter The ash upon his left shoulder
The child arrogantly laughed and mocked him ”These people knoe are They won’t dare to attack us Come on, my brethren, let’s kill them all!”
The horde of kids was like a sware of an elephant surrounded by an are of their identity as noble descendants, they each stayed their hands and dared not strike out at theh the streets ceaselessly, in full knowledge that the government would not suppress them, out of honor and respect for their heroic forefathers And now, they all bore down upon the Qinian Unit as a herd of berserkers At the very least, they hoped to break the resolve and mess up the formation and composure of the Qinian Unit
All the Qinian Unit did was keep theh they did this tosounds of swung blades were drowning the entire atht-veiled lane The darkness was enveloping theht forward their torchbearers to shed light on their enelow, one could see the spite and bloodlust that were consue, atching the scene As tirew dour He knew that those in the Qinian Unit were his closest bodyguards and even though they weren’t as talented as Gao Da or the Tiger Guard, he thought they could have dealt with these kids with little to no hassle It was only because of their years of service to the Overwatch Council and governrievous harers”
He was, however, aware that his subordinates were
taking Fan Xian’s oell-being into consideration also, for they did want to bring political trouble on hi of these kids But the Qinian Unit was choosing to ga a perht Fan Xian’s blood to boil through an overwhelht like wiance continued to groith each passing second In Fan Xian’s mind, he compared the complete turnaround to a football match in his past life, of when AC Milan was vexed by Liverpool’s six-oals
”Nonsense!” Fan Xian had leapt froe when he yelled this out in annoyance The shout was infused with his zhenqi and so his voice booth of the street
The battle that had been splintered into a nuht to a pause The Qinian Unit took advantage of this and hastily retreated to the carriages Two of theushed from their wounds down to the cobbles of the street Due to the Qinian Unit's inability to fight back properly, the kids had all aimed at their weak spots
Fan Xian looked upon his subordinates with a face that conveyed no e in the northern Qi Kingdom, how come you weren’t this useless then?”
The subordinates were embarrassed and asharound In their pounding, breathless hearts, they too felt the state of affairs to be unjust The little bastards were inferior to the able to beat back those who could not do the sarandsons of the dukes the Ziyue exited the carriage now to join them His face was motionless, as if chiseled fro with blood-smeared swords; their eyes conveyed the look of butchers preparing to decapitate another chicken
”Sir, the identity of our opponents is… Don’t worry, we can resolve this” Deng Ziyue noticed Fan Xian’s face descending further and further into ugliness by the second
Fan Xian was brought to such anger that it was al ”What identity? All I know is they are a bunch of thieves And noe have injured h theuy – what are you guys talking about?” The noble kid as leading the sware The bloodlust and hostility harbored in his eyebroas becoly obvious He called to thee, make all your useless o”
Fan Xian looked at the kid for one brief moment, and then looked away
With a callous, soulless s to you Hand over that woman How dare you cross the Baoyue Brothel Do you have a death wish or so? Perhaps you would like to be the latest victiel'!”
Each word and acco tone was filled to the briusted Fan Xian A cacophony of laughter eed from the crowd
crowd behind hi the kid had proudly told hi as they are our eneht our best and be as cruel as possible It does not matter if they are from outside our country or within; these principles, have you not yet learned the and uneventful that you have laxed in your ability to fight and utilize all that Chen Pingping has taught you?”
The noble kid as in front of the carriage, faced with Fan Xian’s resilience to pay hier, the explicit requests that were made by the Baoyue Brothel was momentarily lost to him and it was in this madness that he ran towards Fan Xian with a horse whip in hand
The distance separating Fan Xian and the noble youth was short by this point, but the horse as only a few inches long It would have been impossible for him to hit Fan Xian’s head, so it must have been a bluff
Fan Xian’s eyes detected the horse whip’s immediate proximity, and with split-second reactions, he raised his left hand
A cry of absolute pain resounded through the dark night
The horse whip that was once in the noble kid's hand dropped to the ground The brat held his wrist and screamed in pain A black bolt was then fired fro the flesh of his hand
Blood gushed from the crevice of the child’s hand The kids in the rear were in utter shock at the sudden turn of events They thought to the crossbows at us Does that guy not knoe are?”
These kids had been doing wicked deeds and perpetrating crimes across the city each and every day; they had even killed They held a fundamental disrespect toward life itself It was as if they had been born without souls But this was the first ti a deadly weapon against theht to shock, but they were each brought to anger, as well
