Chapter 2090


    “Mr. Anderson, I think we should just kill these two since they''re useless to us now.”


    They were thinking of sparing Sword Saint and King of Fighters so they could threaten the rest of China


    with them, but the people of China couldn''t care less about them.


    “What are you saying? If we kill them, we''d just be avenging that b*stard Chu Tianfan! If these people


    of Jiangdong won''t make it easy for us, then we''re not going to make it easy for them either!”


    In the end, Anderson decided to keep Sword Saint and King of Fighters alive for the time being.


    He nned on taking care of Jiangdong first before determining what he would do about them.


    Just like that, the two sides remained at a stalemate.


    The Chu Sect could neither break through the enemy''s defenses through brute force nor negotiate their


    way into Mount Yunding.


    “Huh... Looks like our only option is to wait for Mr. Chu and the others toe back. We''ll regroup and


    come up with a way to break through the enemy''s formation.”


    The minutes continued to tick by.


    Upon receiving Chu Yuan''s order for all members of Chu Sect to gather, Chu Tianqi, who was fighting


    in Japan, quickly led his men back to China.


    Meanwhile, Chu Sect members who stayed at Yanjing had finally broken through the Yanjing


    Formation.


    Duoli, who was in charge of annihting the Xu family, eximed with tears in his eyes, “Ha! It''s finally


    down!”


    Breaking through that formation was ridiculously difficult for them.


    Dozens of them had been taking turns attacking it day and night. They even hired lots of Supreme


    fighters from Yunzhou to help them out, many of which copsed from exhaustion halfway through.


    Even someone as powerful as Duoli nearly fainted from how taxing it was.


    The thought of giving up had crossed his mind many times, but he decided to keep at it.


    After continuously attacking the formation for about two weeks, they were finally able to shatter it.


    The feeling of achieving sess after putting in so much hard work was so touching that they nearly


    broke down in tears on the spot.


    “We did it, guys! We finally did it! We''ve been going at it day and night with all of our might, and our


    hard work has finally paid off! The Yanjing Formation is down atst! All that''s left for us to do is reap


    the fruits of our efforts! Everyone, heed mymand! We shall nowmence our assault on the Xu


    residence and kill these remnants of the Dragon God Hall! Let their blood wash away the pain and


    fatigue we''ve suffered throughout the past two weeks! Attack!” Duoli shouted at the top of his voice.


    His voice echoed through the area and got Chu Sect members outside Yanjing all hyped up.


    Like a pack of rabid dogs, they charged at the Xu residence looking forward to massacring the


    remnants of the Dragon God Hall.


    To their surprise, however, what awaited them inside was not a bunch of weaklings waiting to be


    ughtered. Instead, there was not a single person in sight.


    Duoli was on the verge of losing his mind at that point.


    “What the... D*mn it! Where are they? Where the f*ck are those b*stards at?” he screamed desperately


    like a madman.


    We''ve been working so f*cking hard just to break through that d*mned formation! Howe there isn''t


    a single enemy in sight? Does this mean all of our efforts have been in vain?


    Duoli was so angry and frustrated that he nearly had a stroke on the spot.


    Suddenly, someone came running over and said, “Sir, we discovered a tunnel in the manor! Those


    b*stards must''ve escaped through the tunnel!”


    Boom!


    Enraged, Duoli smashed a pavilion in front of him into smithereens.


    “Go after them! Do it now! They couldn''t have gotten far! We have to kill every single one of them no


    matter what!” Duoli yelled, his infuriated screams echoing throughout the area.


    Chu Sect members then split up into multiple groups and set out to chase after the remnants of the


    Dragon God Hall.


    Meanwhile, a ck Mercedes-Benz was speeding down a highway in Jiangdong like crazy.

    Going as fast as two hundred kilometers per hour, the Mercedes-Benz zipped its way past all the traffic


    on the road like a bolt of lightning.


    Two women were sitting in the car with solemn looks on their faces.


    They were none other than Xu Lei and her assistant, Lin Wenjing.


    The two had spent almost a whole day and night on the highway after fleeing the Xu residence.


    Although they were already thousands of miles away from Yanjing, Xu Lei and Lin Wenjing were still


    feeling incredibly tense.


    At dawn, the two of them finally saw the sign indicating their arrival in Yunzhou.


    “We have arrived at Yunzhou, Ms. Xu! Haha! We''ll reach Mount Yunding Vi in another thirty minutes


    or so! We''re safe atst!”


    Like a ship stranded at sea that had finally arrived at the docks, Xu Lei and Lin Wenjing breathed huge


    sighs of relief.


    “Yeah! We''re going to be okay, Wenjing! If we can head up Mount Yunding and gather with Li Er and


    the others, we''ll be able to hold out until Ye Fan gets here!”


    Xu Lei could barely contain the joy and excitement in her heart.


    His voice echoed through the area and got Chu Sect members outside Yanjing all hyped up.


    Not only would she be safe from their hunters, but she would also be able to reunite with the man she


    loved.


    Feeling safe, Lin Wenjing slowed the car down and yed some music on the radio.


    The two of them had been really tense from fear and anxiousness the whole time.


    Since they had arrived in Yunzhou, they could lower their guard and rx a little.


    “Your wisdom has saved our lives, Ms. Xu! Had you not thought of digging this secret tunnel many


    years ago, we would''ve been trapped in that manor with nowhere to run! The enemies would have a


    field day ughtering us all!” Lin Wenjing eximed while moving her body to the beat of the song.


    She had been working for Xu Lei ever since thetter was in Yunzhou, so the two had been close


    friends for about ten years.


    “I didn''te up with that idea myself. It was Ye Fan who instructed me to do it. The Yanjing Formation


    was just a supportive formation. It wouldn''t evenst a couple of days if Chu Sect attacked with arger


    army. He told me to dig a tunnel underground so we could escape Chu Sect''s attack and head over to


    Mount Yunding,” Xu Lei replied with a proud look on her face.


    Just as Lin Wenjing was proud of her, Xu Lei was also proud of Ye Fan''s brilliant arrangements.


    “I wonder how things are for Mr. Xue and the others, though...”


    In order to make themselves a harder target, Xu Lei had everyone split up and head over to Yunzhou


    via different routes.


    Naturally, Lin Wenjing was the one who went with her.


    “Don''t worry, Ms. Xu. We''ve made ourselves a tiny target by splitting up, so Chu Sect won''t catch up to


    us that easily! We''ll all meet at Mount Yunding and wait for Mr. Chu''s arrival together! I want a ten-


    month long paid leave when this is over, Ms. Xu!” Lin Wenjing reassured her optimistically.


    Xu Lei let out a chuckle when she heard that. “Wow! Ten months of paid leave? You sure are a greedy


    one, Wenjing!”


    “Yeah, and you''re going to let me have it, or I''ll tell Mr. Chu about all those love letters you''ve been


    writing him in secret!” Lin Wenjing threatened her with a mischievous grin.


    “Okay, you win! In fact, I''ll even let you take the whole year off once this is over! How about that?” Xu


    Lei replied.


    Lin Wenjing was overjoyed when she heard that. “Hehe! It''s a deal!”


    “Tell me the truth, Wenjing. Why are you suddenly requesting such a long leave? Are you pregnant?”


    Xu Lei asked with a chuckle while ncing at Lin Wenjing, who was in the driver''s seat.
