The Legend of the Young Swordsman: A Prequel - A Phantom Melody Embarks on a Journey Through the Mar

"Forget it, let's go over there! If things get weird, we'll run away. If we can't run away, we'll surrender."

Thinking of Steward Xiao, the two couldn't help but feel terrified, and finally made the decision to bite the bullet and go ahead.

Meanwhile, at the Donggui Tavern

Helian Yun Shen strolled leisurely into the Donggui Tavern, and seeing the dazzling array of fine wines displayed there, he casually picked out a bottle as if they were old friends.

"Since you've already admitted defeat, what's the point of staying here any longer?"

He spoke calmly, inhaling the enticing aroma of the wine.

The pig butcher, Yan Qiansui, was caught in a dilemma upon hearing Helian Yunshen's words, unsure whether to retreat or advance. For a moment, he didn't know what to do.

"Lord Yan, we're here to help you!"

At that moment, two people who had been hiding in the shadows rushed out, long swords in hand, and approached Yan Qiansui with a look of determination to fight to the death. Yan Qiansui looked at the two who had joined in and was speechless.

There's absolutely no difference between these two people joining and not joining.

"Grandma Needle, aren't you going to show yourself?"

Yan Qiansui shouted from afar.

At his command, several flying needles shot into the Donggui Tavern, heading straight for Helian Yunshen, Bai Dongjun, and Sikong Changfeng.

Upon seeing the flying needle attack, Sikong Changfeng immediately shielded Bai Dongjun behind him.

Helian Yun Shen, who was enjoying his wine when he was interrupted, opened his jade folding fan and unleashed a gust of wind. The so-called flying needles didn't even get close to the three of them; they were directly controlled by the wind and sent flying back the way they came.

They turned and left, facing Yan Qiansui and his companions.

Granny Needle appeared from the shadows and flung out flying needles again, colliding with the other flying needles to neutralize their attacks.

"Is it never going to end?"

“Young Master Huanyin, this matter has nothing to do with you. Please do not get involved. I remind you again that this matter is not as simple as you think.”

Granny Needle believed that she and the already injured Yan Qiansui were no match for Young Master Huanyin, so she could only try to suppress Helian Yunshen by relying on the person behind her.

Helian Yun Shen, who was savoring the fine wine, paused slightly in the wine pot in his hand.

His pause made both Sikong Changfeng and Bai Dongjun's hearts tighten, especially Sikong Changfeng's, who felt even more anxious and gripped his spear even tighter.

All eyes were on Helian Yun Shen.

Under the gaze,

A sharp, cold light suddenly flashed in Helian Yunshen's calm eyes.

next moment

The figure vanished from the spot. Granny Zhen and Yan Qiansui stared at their surroundings with extreme vigilance, filled with fear and dread.

"Threatening me? Let the people behind you speak up! The Buddha Kingdom in the Palm of Your Hand!"

A cold voice echoed in the shop.

next moment

Helian Yun Shen appeared beside Granny Zhen and Yan Qian Sui with such speed that the two were unable to dodge and could only hastily defend themselves.

A Buddhist kingdom burst forth from the palm of his hand!

The weight of this palm strike was far beyond what the two of them could withstand. The terrifying power and true energy were constantly transmitted, and the two of them clearly felt the terror of this palm strike.

In their terror, the two were unable to withstand the force of the palm strike and were instantly sent flying.

boom!

They crashed into a shop behind them, leaving a large hole in the entire shop.

"Humph!"

Helian Yun Shen snorted coldly and unleashed a powerful attack, the Great Sun Tathagata, at the shop. The true energy was scorching hot, and the moment it hit the shop, the entire shop was instantly ignited, exploding and collapsing.

"With such so-called strength, you dare to threaten people here? Bullying the weak isn't something only you would do."

After a cold remark, Helian Yun Shen returned to his previous position.

Watching Helian Yun Shen's battle in that instant, Sikong Changfeng swallowed hard, remembering how he had been thinking of fighting him earlier that day.

Looking back now, those thoughts were nothing short of delusional and wishful thinking; a single attack from someone could render one incapable of taking care of oneself.

In the ruins

Yan Qiansui and Granny Zhen escaped, covered in soot, with blood trickling from the corners of their mouths, their clothes partially burned and bearing some charred marks.

“Young Master Huanyin is indeed remarkable. The two of us may not be your match. But I don’t believe you can handle dozens or even hundreds of experts like us.”

Granny Needle's eyes showed fear, but she still had no intention of giving up. Her words remained threatening, as if she was preparing to use even more people to beat her up.

No sooner had he finished speaking than even more people appeared on the street, so many that Sikong Changfeng was startled.

"This? The entire street has been planted with spies?"

"I didn't expect that either!"

Bai Dongjun was also surprised to see this. He originally thought that everyone was just doing business, but he didn't expect that they were not ordinary people at all!

It turns out he's the only honest businessman here.

There are quite a few people, but do you think I'm scared?

Looking at the people outside the tavern, Helian Yun Shen showed no fear whatsoever, but at this moment he put down the wine pot in his hand.

The jade flute that was placed at his waist was picked up and brought to his lips.

Seeing Helian Yun Shen's actions, Granny Needle became even more anxious and shouted to everyone.

"Don't let him play the jade flute! Interrupt him!"

At his command, everyone rushed into the tavern.

Seeing this situation, Bai Dongjun disregarded everything else and immediately revealed his trump card. He summoned the Glass Beast Xiaobai, whose forceful appearance temporarily interrupted the battle.

"Bai Dongjun, I never expected you to have such a trump card?"

Looking at the glass beast before him, Sikong Changfeng was also shocked. This was something he didn't know; this guy had been hiding it very well.

"Don't say that. What we need to do now is to cover for Young Master Huanyin to play the tune. As long as Young Master Huanyin can play the tune, we can win."

Bai Dongjun responded to Sikong Changfeng's words. After replying, he ordered Xiaobai to launch an even fiercer attack on the enemy. Sikong Changfeng also remained silent, brandishing his spear and charging at the enemy.

"I'm always there for these kinds of things!"

A series of unrestrained and unconventional voices rang in their ears.

next moment

Some dark, unremarkable beads fell from the sky and shattered upon hitting the ground.

"Retreat, these are the Lei family's gunpowder beads."

Granny Needle looked at the exploding beads and gave instructions to the others. The others weren't fools; seeing this, they naturally retreated to avoid the attack.

As they retreated, Lei Mengsha, who had rushed over, landed in front of Bai Dongjun and Sikong Changfeng, took a stance, and looked at the people in front of him with a smile on his face.

"How about I take these two with me and leave?"

He spoke these words, which sounded like a request, to Granny Zhen and the others, while thanking Helian Yun Shen, who was behind him ready to play the jade flute.

"Yun Shen, thank you for your help!"
