Chapter 97 Fighting for a Way Out, Sun Yun Appears (Please Subscribe)

"Junior brother, are you okay?"

Su Chen quickly caught up with Hong Ming and the others. They found a carriage and headed towards the city gate. Upon seeing Su Chen, Li Mo asked with concern.

Su Chen shook his head and said, "I'm fine, but what exactly happened?"

Upon hearing this, Hong Ming and the others exchanged glances and then told Su Chen the general situation.

"It seems that Tao Dingfang was using the pretext of quelling the rebellion from the very beginning to weaken the martial arts forces in the city. No wonder he's giving us a 50% discount!" Su Chen said after hearing this.

"So what should we do now?" Li Mo asked, and everyone looked at Hong Ming and Su Chen.

Su Chen didn't speak, but instead turned his gaze to Hong Ming. After a moment of silence, Hong Ming sighed and said, "Let's leave the city first. Given the current situation, Tao Dingfang will definitely not give up easily. Staying in the city and waiting to die is not an option. It's better to leave the city and decide based on the situation."

"But the city gates are probably already closed now," Liu Fang said helplessly, glancing at the sky.

"It's closed, just open it."

At this moment, Su Chen said calmly that the city gates had already been closed when he entered the city.

I was wondering why the city gates were closing so early, but now it seems that it was probably an order from Tao Dingfang.

Whether the city gates were closed or not was irrelevant to him. Except for a few rare occasions, when did he ever normally walk through a city gate?
"Coming!"

Su Chen drove the carriage swiftly through the deserted streets and soon saw the closed city gates.

As he expected, the number of city guards inside the city gates had almost doubled. When they saw Su Chen's carriage approaching, they were all on high alert.

"drive!"

Su Chen let out a cheerful shout, his expression unchanged. Instead of slowing down, he actually sped up, saying, "Hold on tight!"

"Stop!"

Upon seeing the carriage speeding towards them, the city guards immediately roared, brandished their weapons, and glared menacingly.

When they were less than fifty meters from the city gate, Su Chen gradually slowed down, his eyes sweeping across all directions, taking in all the city guards.

With a thud, Su Chen lightly stepped on the ground, somersaulted, and landed smoothly. Without saying a word, he immediately took action.

"Go! Capture them!"

The city guards were prepared. Before the carriage even stopped, they attacked Su Chen, swarming him and surrounding him.

"Master, should we go down and help our junior brother?" Li Mo glanced out the window. At this moment, the city guards were all attracted by Su Chen, and no one paid attention to the carriage.

“Okay, you…” Hong Ming was about to speak when he saw Li Mo suddenly widen his eyes, his face showing extreme surprise.

Before he could ask, Li Mo swallowed hard and said, "Master, I think it's unnecessary."

Hong Ming was taken aback, then lifted the curtain and glanced out the car window, revealing an expression completely different from Li Mo's.

Outside the window, Su Chen swatted away all the city guards who rushed forward as if swatting ants. He didn't need two blows; a single slap was enough to send them sprawling to the ground, convulsing and unable to get up.

"Junior brother, you're really strong!" Liu Fang murmured to herself, expressing the thoughts of the others at that moment.

"drive!"

Suddenly, a loud shout came from behind, abruptly drawing everyone's attention back.

Liu Fang glanced back and, upon seeing the figure amidst the swirling dust, her heart sank: "It's Tao Dingfang!"

"Li Mo, open the city gates first!" Hong Ming said urgently.

"Okay!" Li Mo replied and got out of the car.

He glanced at Su Chen and saw that Su Chen had already defeated all twenty-odd city guards. He felt relieved and then ran straight towards the city gate. "Junior brother, come on up quickly!"

The city gate was opened quickly, and Liu Fang hurriedly called Su Chen to get into the car.

Hearing the sound of horses' hooves behind him, Su Chen turned around, his gaze turning serious. He then said to Hong Ming and the others, "You guys go first, I'll deal with this Tao Dingfang!"

The speed of a carriage is no match for that of a horse, especially since Tao Dingfang is followed by armored soldiers. If they were to escape directly, they would be caught up with in no time.

Therefore, Su Chen planned to stay and buy time so that Hong Ming and the others could leave first.

Hong Ming and the others naturally understood the implication in Su Chen's words. Just as they were about to speak, Su Chen shook his head and said, "Let's go quickly. Tao Dingfang may not be able to catch me."

"Junior brother..."

Hong Ming stopped Li Mo and looked at Su Chen: "Alright, we'll wait for you at the dilapidated temple thirty miles away!"

"Junior brother, be careful in everything!" Liu Fang reminded him.

Seeing this, Li Mo could only urge, "Junior brother, you must come!"

Su Chen nodded, waved his hand, signaling the group to leave quickly. Li Mo gritted his teeth and drove the carriage away.

Tapping.

Tao Dingfang's figure drew closer and closer, less than a hundred meters from the city gate.

Su Chen arrived at the city gate, guarding it alone like an old general. Tao Dingfang saw this and a smile appeared on his lips.

"drive!!"

He pushed off with both feet, and his horse neighed, suddenly accelerating.

"Shut up!"

Suddenly, Tao Dingfang pulled his horse back from the brink of disaster, yanking the reins hard. The horse, struck by the force, let out a scream and its body shook violently.

But Tao Dingfang quickly steadied himself, his eyes darkening as he stared at the closed city gate, a hint of anger flashing across his face.

Boom boom boom!
The city gate was quickly opened, and a figure was reflected in Tao Dingfang's pupils. Seeing Su Chen standing tall and straight in front of him, Tao Dingfang smiled sinisterly: "Delay time? Heh, but how long can you delay?"

Su Chen said, "No need to delay, defeating you is enough!"

Upon hearing this, Tao Dingfang's face darkened instantly, and he laughed angrily: "Haha, arrogant! I, Tao Dingfang, have never been looked down upon like this in my entire life! Especially since I have been reduced to being utterly rudely told that I can be defeated by a mere martial arts practitioner!"

"However, congratulations, you have successfully angered me. Now, die!" With that, he changed his tone and attacked in a fit of rage.

Deng!
The ground trembled slightly. Tao Dingfang lightly touched the ground with his toes and shot out. Without armor, he was incredibly fast and arrived in front of Su Chen in the blink of an eye.

Bang bang bang!
Su Chen was fearless and had long wanted to spar with a martial artist who had mastered internal organs to test his own strength.

So when faced with Tao Dingfang's deadly moves, he met them head-on without hesitation, sometimes throwing punches, sometimes chopping with his palms, sometimes kicking with his legs. His limbs seemed to have transformed into sharp weapons, and every move was extremely destructive.

boom!
In less than a few breaths, the two had exchanged more than ten blows, and with a fierce collision, both of them were forced to retreat.

"This guy……"

Tao Dingfang stared at Su Chen, a hint of caution and surprise flashing deep in his eyes. His brief exchange with Su Chen had made him feel an immense pressure, as if he were in an ocean of fists, kicks, and elbows, constantly facing Su Chen's storm of attacks.

He found it hard to believe how this guy had trained, and why he was so proficient in fist techniques, palm techniques, and leg techniques. In terms of moves alone, he was no match for Su Chen.

Just as he was deep in thought, Su Chen charged straight at him, giving him no chance to catch his breath. Tao Dingfang saw this and said fiercely, "What good are strong moves? True masters compete in strength!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Tao Dingfang lunged forward and collided head-on with Su Chen. A tremendous force surged from their bodies, and they exploded with a deafening roar the moment they made contact.
