From a slave to the Great Qian Martial Saint

Boom!

As rocks flew everywhere, a man was forced back more than ten meters by Chen Shi.

What terrifying power!

It's not as simple as just exceeding two thousand jin; it's probably doubled, reaching a terrifying force of four thousand jin!

The three looked at Chen Shi, their faces full of astonishment.

Unexpectedly, what seemed like a cornered beast's desperate struggle was actually a concealment of its true strength.

Although all three were already seventh-rank martial artists, they were only at the early stage of the Condensation Realm and could not yet achieve true unity of offense and defense, thus they could not completely suppress the eighth-rank martial artist.

Chen Shi's terrifying strength made it quite difficult for the two men. As a saintess, it was unknown what kind of martial arts she practiced, but her jade-like arms were still able to counteract Chen Shi's strength.

"Miss, something's wrong!"

Looking back now, it was clear that an opening had been created, and Chen Shi stood there, but did not take the opportunity to escape.

The two men looked at the woman, frowned, and whispered something.

The signal cannon was fired from this location, and the designated location was also here. Chen Shi did not flee; could it be that he was truly waiting for reinforcements?

"No matter what, he's only an eighth-rank official. If you can't take him down, you can all die!"

The woman snorted coldly and charged at Chen Shi again.

Although Chen Shi displayed amazing strength, in the end, he was only an eighth-rank official.

There's no reason why three seventh-rank officials should lose against one eighth-rank official.

If you can't win, there's only one reason: you didn't fight hard enough.

"...Let's give it our all!"

The two men exchanged a glance, but had no choice. With a cold shout, they gritted their teeth and charged forward.

Seeing the three men approaching menacingly, Chen Shi's expression turned solemn.

This time, it might be difficult to deal with.

We can't wait for them to unite; we must defeat them one by one. Chen Shi's face darkened, and with a flick of his wrist, he immediately charged towards one of the men.

The one-foot-long blade exploded with energy, transforming into a six-foot-long blade, which he then slashed with all his might.

"What bad luck."

The man's eyes dimmed instantly, and he couldn't help but sigh.

Faced with Chen Shi's attack, it neither dodged nor used its blood energy to block, but instead slammed its beast claws directly at Chen Shi.

He's willing to trade his injuries for his own!

Chen Shi's eyes widened instantly. Even if his strike could kill the other man, he would certainly be seriously injured.

In that case, he would surely be killed by that saintess immediately afterward.

That's right. Their cultivation level is one grade higher, and it's three against one. How could they possibly lose? They just didn't fight with all their might earlier.

"hateful!"

Chen Shi cursed and immediately drew his sword to defend himself.

His life is precious; how can it be wasted here?

boom!

With a muffled thud, the beast's claw slammed into the blade.

The attack was ruthless, and Chen Shi had to retreat several steps in quick succession to respond.

At this moment, another man and the saintess rushed up.

Taking advantage of Chen Shi's unstable foothold, they launched a pincer attack.

"Oops."

Chen Shi knew things were going badly. Relying on the flexibility he had cultivated with the Elephant King Stance, he managed to swing his sword again with difficulty.

But this strike could only stop the man.

The saintess's jade-like hands, accompanied by a strong gust of wind, were already patting Chen Shi's shoulder.

Chen Shi frowned deeply; he couldn't dodge it, and this arm was likely to be ruined.

"snort!"

Seeing that she was about to succeed, a slight smile appeared on the woman's lips. This palm strike would first seriously injure Chen Shi, making it easier to kill him later.

"Um?!"

But at that moment, a dark figure suddenly pounced, its momentum swift, like a bolt of black lightning.

The woman was startled and, disregarding Chen Shi, quickly changed her stance to block.

clang!

A piercing sound rang out, as if a mountain had struck her. Even with her delicate arms cushioning the impact, the woman couldn't help but stagger back several steps.

"This is……"

She braced herself and regained her footing. Looking up again, the woman couldn't help but frown.

On the nearby rock was a seemingly ordinary hornless black sheep.

How could a goat possess such terrifying power?

"Brother Sheep!"

Upon seeing the hornless black sheep, Chen Shi's face lit up with surprise, and then he couldn't help but smile.

"I never expected you to come and help me."

The hornless black sheep glanced at Chen Shi, its eyes filled with mockery, as if to say, "You can't even beat a woman, how shameful."

Immediately afterward, ignoring Chen Shi, he turned and ran into the depths of the mountains.

It leaped more than ten zhang in one bound and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

"Brother Sheep!"

Chen Shi called out, "At least help him a little longer, why are you leaving already?"

"Who fired the signal cannon!"

The next moment, a loud shout suddenly came, and amidst the clamor of footsteps, a squad of soldiers rushed over.

coming!

Upon seeing the approaching army, Chen Shi smiled with relief.

It was even faster than he had expected.

"How could that be!"

On the other side, the woman's expression changed drastically, her face filled with shock.

How could the army have arrived so quickly?

There are nearly a thousand soldiers guarding Yongqiu Mountain, who are usually stationed at the foot of the mountain to block all the paths leading up the mountain. But the woman only knew one side of the story. In fact, another group of elite soldiers were also dispatched to patrol the territory where the strange beasts roamed, following designated routes.

With Chen Shi's deliberate guidance, they are now in the territory of a strange beast, which is also the army's patrol route.

Therefore, after he fired the signal cannon, the troops patrolling nearby could come directly, instead of being drawn from the camp at the foot of the mountain.

"Manager Chen!"

This group consisted of more than thirty people, and the leader happened to be one of the deputy generals who had been drinking with Chen Shi that night.

When I first saw the signal cannon, I thought it was one of the other patrolmen, but I never expected it to be Chen Shi.

"Lieutenant Liu! I've spotted three poachers hunting exotic beasts. Capture them immediately!"

Chen Shi shouted loudly, his face full of righteous indignation.

"yes!"

In fact, even without Chen Shi saying anything, Deputy General Liu had already led his men to surround them.

"No! We're not thieves!"

Faced with the army, all three men looked flustered, and one of them shouted.

"Take it down!"

Deputy General Liu sneered, ignoring their explanations, and gave the order directly.

Regardless of whether they are poachers or not, they were clearly fighting with Chen Shi just now. As long as they are captured, it will be a favor to Chen Shi!

If Chen Shi were to speak up for him at the Marquis's residence because of this, he, as the deputy general, might be promoted to the rank of captain.

"Charge out!"

Seeing the approaching army, the woman frowned, gave a low shout, and broke through the encirclement.

Among martial artists of the nine ranks, it is generally difficult to challenge those of a higher rank, except for those in the military.

Since it is called an army, first of all, it has a large number of people, and they are often well-trained, forming military formations and cooperating with each other. A well-trained army can be as good as one!

Although these thirty soldiers were all only at the ninth rank of cultivation, they were well-equipped and were the elite of the elite. When they formed a battle formation, they moved in unison and were not someone that an ordinary martial artist could defeat.

Imagine, if they didn't have enough force to suppress the strange beasts and those poachers, would they dare to patrol the mountains?

"snort."

Looking at the three people surrounded by soldiers, Chen Shi smiled slightly.

His plan was to use the guards of Yongqiu Mountain to deal with that holy son!

Knowing that there were no restrictions on the duel between the Holy Sons, Chen Shi not only did not feel nervous, but actually relaxed a lot.

As the steward of the Marquis of Jing'an's mansion, his influence far surpasses that of ordinary martial arts practitioners!

"Where do you think you're going!"

Not daring to fight the army head-on, the woman tried to escape, but Chen Shi snorted and leaped to block her way.

Now that reinforcements have arrived, how could we possibly let her escape again?

Upon seeing this, Deputy General Liu immediately rushed over. As a deputy general, he was also an eighth-rank military officer.

"Let's give it our all!"

With the army on one side and Chen Shi on the other, and seeing no way to escape, the woman let out a cold shout and charged forward with gritted teeth.
