Chapter 4, Part 12: Rain Battle

ow nearly five thousand demigods. There was a rough estimate before." 。“Wang Yi said, 'Similar to you guys, and me, those who have had professional training, there are less than two thousand people.'...When a mob of people threw axes, the driver instantly drew his waist knife. With a flash of light, he cut through two axles, which were made of thick and sturdy wood. The fact that they could be severed instantly showed the driver's exceptional swordsmanship. At the same time, the driver lashed out with his whip, striking the horse's rump hard.

lively lively lively~~~~

The steed neighed and immediately dashed forward, its hooves pounding on the waterlogged streets as it blindly charged toward the throng.

"Protect the young master!" The guards, armed with swords and shields, surged forward at the order of their captain. They crowded around the carriage and raised their shields, forming a solid wall of protection around it. Fifteen guards stood guard, determined to keep the young master safe.

"Wow."

The windows of the carriage were slightly ajar, but there was an iron railing. Chang Yi and her maid, 'Qingyu Girl', both looked out through the side windows. At a glance, they saw axes falling densely! But neither of them paid attention to it...

"Bang bang bang!!!" Over a hundred axes completely enveloped this area, some landing on the open ground around the carriage, some blocked by the fifteen guards' shields, and some landing directly on the carriage.

After all, guards can't protect every part of the carriage. For example, there were more than ten axes stuck in the wooden boards on top of the carriage, but the carriage was still intact.

Chang Yi, who was particularly fond of life, had long ago reinforced the carriage! On the surface, it looked like wood, but inside it was thick iron plating! Only the window area was iron railings. These flying axes barely pierced the wood, but they couldn't shake the inner iron plate.

"Now it all comes down to their abilities." Chang Yi whispered.

His voice was very soft, yet Xu Jingming, Mr. Lü, and Miss Ziting, who could control their cells at the microscopic level, could all hear him clearly. The three of them merely shifted their feet slightly in response to those flying axes, causing the axes to whiz past them harmlessly without touching a single hair on their bodies.

"Pfft."

As the horses galloped toward the crowd, a flying axe shot out like lightning, instantly burying itself in the horse's head. The steed crumpled to the ground, rolling twice before falling silent.

The gang leader who wielded the axe pointed toward the carriage and shouted, "Kill!"

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

Both large crowds simultaneously roared and charged towards the central carriage.

And many pedestrians who had sought refuge in the distance, as well as some customers from teahouses along the street, all watched this street brawl with careful attention!

“Miss, be careful. In a fight of this scale, there might be flying weapons.” An old man warned cautiously from beside the railing on the second floor of the teahouse. The young girl, however, was engrossed in the scene below, “Wow, hundreds of people attacking that one carriage! It's rare to see a battle of this magnitude."

"It can be dangerous too." the old man said repeatedly.

"These hundreds of people are from the Huayue Gang, aren't they" the girl immediately said, "Isn't the leader of the Huayue Gang that white-haired old man who came to our house last month"

"These gang members, it's best to avoid them as much as possible. We should be careful about what we say." The elder reminded, but he wasn't panicking. The private room they were in had already been reserved, making it difficult for others to hear their conversation clearly. Even if they did hear, there was nothing to fear from their family.

The girl watched the battle with excitement.

……

Xu Jingming, Mr. Lv, and Zi Teng looked at each other. They had sparred with each other simply before and discussed how to cooperate when facing enemies.

Xu Jingming suddenly pulled out two long spears from behind his back. The spears connected and turned with a click, locking into place. Meanwhile, the burly and tall Mr. Lü instantly drew out two circular blades from his back. He held one in each hand. The circular blades were very thin and incredibly sharp; even a slight brush could cut through them.

"Kill the leader first," said Girl Zi Teng coldly.

"Go!" Xu Jingming's words fell, and his figure suddenly moved, charging to the front.

Miss Zi Teng and Mr. Lv stood on either side of Xu Jingming's wings.

Three figures moved in unison, their forms blurring into hazy afterimages! They dashed straight towards the leader of the bandits!

"Let's get started."

Inside the carriage, Lady Chang'i and her maidservant Qingyu watched through the iron bars, money had been spent, now it was time to see the results.

While the other side, with their leader at the head, charged forward through puddles, when they encountered Xu Jingming and his two companions, they showed no signs of panic. The leader immediately shouted, "They are Stream Entry masters, surround and kill them!" Anyone who reached the level of cellular control was considered a Stream Entry master, possessing the same speed as Xu Jingming and his companions.

The so-called third, second, and first-rate refer to the combat effectiveness difference being not significant in terms of basic capabilities, but the "practical application bonus" varies greatly!

One side had a hundred and eighty people, while the other had only three!

Both sides clash! with great respect. 。A middle-aged man glanced at the screen on the hallway, which was playing a program from Planet Blue. 。"Little Wu" 。A middle-aged man spoke. 。"Professor" 。 。"This Xu Jingming and...
