Chapter 56 Taking Action

Just after Chen Ye shouted, Lin Su and Wang Xiaoming looked behind them at the same time and saw the guards running towards them, holding long spears. In that instant, the two of them ran away into the distance.

In that instant, the two seemed to have forgotten Chen Ye's existence, completely disregarding his safety, and left ahead of him.

At this moment, watching the two who had already left on their own, his anger reached its peak. "Damn it, those two!"

At this moment, Chen Ye noticed that the guards behind him were getting closer and closer. Just like the two in front of him, he took off running and chased after them.

Perhaps because of the darkness of night, the guards lost track of them after a while.

At this moment, Chen Ye realized that there were no guards behind him anymore, so he gradually slowed down and stopped at a slightly safer corner.

Just then, Chen Ye realized that he seemed to have separated from the two people. He couldn't see any trace of them along the route he had taken to escape. At this moment, Chen Ye couldn't help but worry, but then he suddenly felt relieved.

Since the two ran so fast, it was impossible to catch them. It seemed that we could only continue searching for them when it got light.

……

Meanwhile, Wang Xiaoming and Lin Su from Xiantao also discovered that there were no more guards chasing them, so they found a safe place to hide.

At this point, Lin Su spoke first, "Is everything alright?"

"fine."

"And you, Chen Ye?"

"Chen Ye?"

After several inquiries from Wang Xiaoming, he said somewhat speechlessly, "Chen Ye, are you alright? If not, give me a reply."

Then Wang Xiaoming looked around again, his face suddenly filled with panic. There was no sign of Chen Ye anywhere. At the same time, Lin Su also noticed this problem and began to search for Chen Ye, but to no avail!

This situation exploded in Lin Su's and Su's minds!

"Oh no!" Wang Xiaoming exclaimed worriedly, "Could they have been captured by the guards?"

"Impossible!" Lin Su immediately rejected Wang Xiaoming's idea and said, "When the two of us left, did anyone notice whether Chen Ye followed us?"

Wang Xiaoming shook his head and said, "I just heard Chen Ye shout, 'Run!' and I immediately took off running without paying any attention to what was happening behind me."

After Wang Xiaoming finished speaking, Lin Su immediately explained to him, "Me too. After hearing Chen Ye's voice, I followed behind you and left. I didn't pay any attention to Chen Ye's situation."

After the two of them gave their full explanation, they realized that Chen Ye hadn't followed them at all, and that they had just left on their own.

"I'm such an idiot!" Wang Xiaoming said remorsefully.

At this moment, Lin Su was also feeling quite uneasy. She was probably thinking more deeply about whether their departure would make Chen Ye feel abandoned, which would cause him great distress.

Lin Su felt increasingly distressed as she thought about it, and she couldn't help but cry.

Hearing the crying, Wang Xiaoming saw that Lin Su was actually crying. Completely unsure how to comfort the girl, Wang Xiaoming was at a loss.

"Don't cry, Lin Su," Wang Xiaoming said. "Chen Ye will be alright. Look, we haven't heard any announcements about anyone being caught, which means Chen Ye is definitely safe. We'll go look for him again tomorrow when it's light."

Under Wang Xiaoming's words, Lin Su gradually stopped crying.

……

Time flew by, and it was the next morning.

At this moment, Chen Ye opened his eyes groggily. The glaring sunlight shone into his eyes, and it took him a long time to adjust before he could fully open them.

Chen Ye looked around at everything, completely unaware of where he was.

Everything around him was unfamiliar. Chen Ye then leaned against the wall to stand up again, looked around, and found that there were already some pedestrians walking on the road he was on.

Just then, Chen Ye noticed that a bowl had appeared at his feet, containing several copper coins. Chen Ye then realized that someone might have mistaken him for a beggar.

At this moment, passersby once again tossed a copper coin into the bowl in front of Chen Ye, which made Chen Ye even more certain that he was being mistaken for a beggar.

Chen Ye covered his face speechlessly and shook his head.

Immediately afterward, Chen Ye took the slightly damaged porcelain bowl, picked up the five copper coins inside, placed the bowl back on its original spot, and then left.

Afterwards, Chen Ye followed this unfamiliar road, searching for Lin Su and Wang Xiaoming. As he walked, Chen Ye also thought about how this place was different from his original world.

This includes the currency used in the local economy. Chen Ye felt as if he were in ancient times, as evidenced by the heavy copper coins in his hand.

However, what is different is that this place is clearly dressed like a modern person, without the clothing, hairstyles, or even speech of ancient people.

This made Chen Ye wonder what kind of world he was in, and why everything that happened kept interrupting his guesses about this place.

And why do all the houses here turn off their lights on time every night? Is it because their concept of time is still stuck in ancient times?

The various differences aroused Chen Ye's intense curiosity about everything here. As Chen Ye walked and pondered, he completely failed to notice the pedestrians in front of him.

"Bang—"

Chen Ye lost his balance and collided with a pedestrian walking in the opposite direction, causing both of them to fall to the ground. The figure in front of him, before even getting up, began to shout:

"That blind fool isn't watching where he's going!"

The five copper coins that Chen Ye had been holding in his hand collided and scattered on the ground. Two of them were picked up by passersby who witnessed the scene. After finding the copper coins, Chen Ye found the last three.

The person who was bumped was helped up by the guards behind him. "Are you alright, young master?"

When the young master the guard mentioned stood up, he walked up to Chen Ye with an angry expression, grabbed Chen Ye by the collar, and pulled him up.

Chen Ye, who originally wanted to throw a punch, immediately suppressed his anger and did not attack the young master. Instead, he grabbed the young master's hand again and forcefully shook it off!

Chen Ye didn't want to get entangled with him; it was better to avoid trouble. He then apologized to the young master, saying, "I'm sorry, I wasn't watching where I was going. I apologize to you."

After speaking, Chen Ye thought he should leave first, as he still needed to find Lin Su and Wang Xiaoming later.

Just after Chen Ye finished apologizing, he tried to walk past the young master, but an arm blocked his way. Upon seeing the arm, Chen Ye didn't hesitate and simply pushed it aside, continuing to walk forward.

That boy, seeing me extend my arm, still dared to keep walking forward; he probably didn't know who I was.

The moment Chen Ye knocked the arm away, the young master's anger had already reached its peak!

The young master swung his fist at Chen Ye, but Chen Ye, who had his back to the young master, bent down and easily dodged the punch just as it was about to hit the back of his head.

This caused the young master, who had missed his target, to bulge his veins and throw another punch!

Chen Ye, who originally thought it was better to avoid trouble, had no choice but to teach this person a lesson when he saw how ungrateful he was, even though it might affect his future.

Just as the boy's punch was about to hit Chen Ye, Chen Ye turned around again and easily dodged it once more. But this time, when the young master turned around again and looked at Chen Ye, a huge fist had already appeared in front of him, ready to swing at him!

At this critical moment, a man appeared out of nowhere, grabbed Chen Ye's wrist, and stopped the attack just one centimeter away from the young master.

However, only Chen Ye's fist stopped, but the unstoppable force of the punch continued to strike, sending the young master who was still cursing flying several distances in full view of everyone. After his body stopped, he even spat out a mouthful of blood.

At this moment, the man who had grabbed Chen Ye's wrist finally realized that his young master had offended a powerful figure. As Chen Ye pulled his wrist back, his gaze was fixed on the middle-aged man who had just grabbed his wrist.

Chen Ye did not adopt any offensive stance, but instead stared intently at the middle-aged man. The oppressive aura emanating from Chen Ye caused the middle-aged man in front of him to feel a little intimidated, and even take a few steps back.

The young master lying on the ground was in so much pain in his chest that he couldn't stand up. But he was still cursing and swearing. The middle-aged man knew that the person in front of him was beyond his ability to handle.

Then, in full view of everyone, he helped his young master up. The middle-aged man whispered something in his young master's ear, and the young master's eyes widened in surprise before he said defiantly, "You wait, I'll be back!"

The young master was helped away from the place.

The onlookers witnessed this shocking scene and whispered among themselves, "Unbelievable! The second young master of the Wang family was thoroughly beaten up by an outsider. It's so satisfying! But this young friend has probably gotten himself into big trouble."

Just then, a woman with a graceful figure, delicate eyebrows, and a ponytail stepped out from the crowd, walked up to Chen Ye, and praised him, "Your skills are impressive, young master. Do you have time to do me the honor of having a drink?"

When Chen Ye saw the unfamiliar woman in front of him, she actually wanted to invite him for a drink. However, Chen Ye shook his head, "Sorry, I have some things to take care of. We'll meet again if fate allows. Goodbye."

As the woman watched, Chen Ye gradually disappeared from her sight. Just then, another voice came from behind her, calling out, "Sister Mozheng, what are you doing here... What happened?"

It wasn't until the person who shouted walked up to Mo Zheng that she could see clearly that it was a boy of eleven or twelve years old, still clutching the candied hawthorn he had just bought. Then, the boy took Mo Zheng's hand and walked in another direction.
