Fox Demon: Reincarnation of the Ninth Life

Chapter 109 Trouble is coming! High school entrance examination!

For the next period of time, the capital was calm, so calm that it was scary!

The originally bustling streets seemed to be wiped out in an instant, with only a few tumbleweeds passing by, adding a bit of coldness and desolation to the streets at the moment.

"Yes, it's someone from the Ye family!"

"Quick! Get out!"

"Why are these evil stars here?!"

"Hurry up, hurry up, get out of here!"

Countless vendors muttered, packed up the things they brought out at lightning speed, and quickly left the street!

The people coming here are not friendly! From a distance, the streets are crowded with people, like a black ocean. The huge crowd fills the entire street, and there is no end in sight.

They had gloomy faces, cold eyes, and a chilling aura. These people held various weapons, some holding knives and axes, some holding sticks, and some even carrying bows and crossbows.

They moved forward in unison, the sound of their footsteps echoing throughout the street like thunder.

What comes after the absolute coldness is absolute murderous intent!

"The person who came here is not good..."

Through the window paper, Zhao Hong looked at the endless crowd and muttered to himself.

"Sir, what should we do now?"

Chen Baoan said while holding an axe.

"I'm sorry, both of you. I've caused you trouble."

Lu Wan knelt down behind him and apologized. She was relatively naive and thought that it was her fault that implicated the two of them.

But the two men knew that it was definitely not that simple.

"Mr. Zhao, Ye Xue from the Ye family, please come out and have a chat!"

The leader was no longer the ragged bandit, but a big man dressed in black with a weapon in hand!

Zhao Hong sighed slightly when he heard this. He knew that this day would come, but he couldn't understand why it came so soon!

This kind of scene is used to intimidate. No one would believe that they are here to reminisce about the past! !

"hateful!"

Chen Baoan was about to rush out but was stopped by Zhao Hong.

"No, if you offend the Ye family here, your next exam will be obstructed by them in every way. How can you save the village?!"

Zhao Hong's words calmed Chen Baoan down, and he sat down on the ground weakly.

"Xiao Wan, hide!"

Zhao Hong said to Lu Wan beside him, who immediately responded and ran to the back to hide.

"Ahem, since you are Brother Ye, please come in!"

As the old voice fell, the door opened!

"Hmph! Pretending to be a ghost!"

Ye Xue muttered.

"You guys wait here!"

"Yes!"

At Ye Xue's command, the huge crowd behind him responded immediately with great momentum.

But in Chen Baoan's eyes, this momentum is not even one thousandth of his old man's!

Ye Xie stepped into the tavern and the door closed immediately.

The two men sat down slowly. Chen Baoan sat on Zhao Hong's left, suppressing his murderous intent and staring at Ye Xue in front of him.

"Who is this?"

"It's my grandson."

"Oh? That's also a rare talent!"

Ye Xue took a pot of wine and started drinking without hesitation.

"Of course, I wonder why you came to my tavern, Brother Ye? It's impossible that you came here to drink, right?"

"If you come to the pub but don't drink, are you here to arrest people? Hahahaha"

Ye Xue seemed to not take Zhao Hong seriously and spoke in a provocative tone.

Chen Baoan clenched his fist and was about to attack when he was wrapped by an old hand.

"Haha, Brother Ye, you are joking. We come to the tavern to drink, but you brought so many people... are you here to protest against me?"

Zhao Hong's originally "kind" eyes revealed a sharp edge, and Ye Xue's brows suddenly frowned, as if he was being stared at by an ancient ferocious beast.

"Of course not. The Ye family and Wudang are partners. It has always been like this. It's just that I heard a rumor."

"The current Wudang leader and young master are missing. At the moment, Wudang is in chaos."

"I don't know...is this true or false?"

After calming down, Ye Xue asked a question, and when he asked this question, his death was already a foregone conclusion!

"Humph! What do you mean, Brother Ye? Are you bullying me, Wudang, because we have no one?"

"Hahaha, yes! So what..."

'boom! '

Without any hesitation, Chen Baoan slapped out with his full strength, breaking the neck of the man in front of him in an instant!

‘Crack! ’

The sound of breaking echoed throughout the tavern, causing Lu Wan in the back to look out.

"Hey! Why did you kill him?"

Zhao Hong pretended to be angry and said.

"Did I kill the wrong person?"

"No, good kill!"

Zhao Hong didn't want to act anymore. He led the other person's body to the door and kicked it out!

'boom! ’

A large amount of smoke and dust was stirred up. When the smoke and dust dissipated, everyone outside's eyes were fixed on the person in Zhao Hong's hand, no, the corpse.

"Look! It's the boss! The boss is dead!"

"Avenge the boss!"

Just as the crowd was about to rush forward, a majestic momentum gushed out like a volcano about to erupt, as if the whole world was shocked by this momentum.

It came like a violent storm, sweeping in with endless power and majesty.

Everyone couldn't help but tremble, and an irresistible fear surged in their hearts. They felt an unprecedented pressure and couldn't take another step forward.

"Those who cause trouble will die!"

There was a hint of arrogance in the old voice, and his sharp eyes swept across everyone present, but no one dared to look him in the eye!

"Sir, that's cool!"

Chen Baoan behind him cheered for him.

"Humph! What are you afraid of? He's just one person! There are so many of us!"

"That's right! Don't be afraid. No matter how strong a person is, what can he do?"

"Go on!"

More and more voices were heard, and the crowd opened fire on Zhao Hong again.

"I'm here to help you!"

Chen Baoan stepped forward and was surrounded together with Zhao Hong.

Swords flashed, arrows rained down, and the two figures shuttled through the crowd like ghosts. Their movements were as fast as lightning, and every move was accurate!

Accompanied by the sounds of breaking bones and wailing, more and more people lay down, only those two people remained standing!

"Back to back!"

Zhao Hong roared in a low voice, and the two of them leaned against each other with their backs.

In your life, there will always be a few people to whom you will willingly give your back.

"not good!"

A cold light attacked Chen Baoan's left side, and just as it was about to penetrate his flesh and blood, another cold light shattered it.

"Just focus on dealing with the enemy in front of you, and leave the rest to me!"

A calm but sharp voice appeared; it was Lu Wan.

"Why did you come out? Didn't I tell you to hide?!"

"I can't just sit there and watch! Besides, I know a little bit about martial arts!"

Lu Wan responded, yes, how could she ignore the disaster caused by her? !

She doesn't want to, doesn't want to, and can't!

With the cooperation of Chen Baoan and Zhao Hong, and the support of Lu Wan outside, they were quickly killed without a single survivor.

An emotion called fear spread among them, and people kept dropping their weapons and fleeing.

He was so domineering when he came, and so embarrassed when he left.

"A great victory!"

Lu Wan smiled. This was the first time she smiled since she came to the capital.

"Haha, I'm old too. If it were before, these people wouldn't be enough for me to kill alone."

Zhao Hong twisted his waist and sighed.

"Just blow it."

Chen Baoan patted the wound on Zhao Hong's shoulder, and the latter cried out in pain.

While they were still immersed in the joy of repelling the enemy, Chen Baoan's excited eyes revealed a hint of reluctance.

Because he understood that the result of this victory would be that he would never be able to take part in the palace examination again, nor could he save the village through his official career.

In order to achieve this goal, all he can do is...

"Xiao Pei, is the golden hoop here?"

'Of course, if the master wants, he can put it on now!'

Recalling the time in the tavern over the past two years, he also figured out where the golden hoop was.

That's right!

It has always existed in Chen Baoan's mind, or more precisely, in Xiaopei's mind.

"Okay, are you worried that you won't be able to take part in the palace examination?"

Zhao Hong noticed some reluctance and loss in Chen Baoan's eyes and touched his head.

"gentlemen……"

"Haha, don't worry, as long as you pass the examination, I will definitely let you take the palace examination, don't worry!"

Zhao Hong smiled and already had a plan in mind.

"That's... very good."

Chen Baoan smiled.

. . . . . .

In the courtyard of the elegant and luxurious mansion, a man wearing a black official uniform with a Qilin pattern on it and an official hat on his head was looking at the parchment in his hand with a frown on his face.

"Chen Baoan...Lu Wan..."

"These two have good grades... maybe they are a threat."

The people he was staring at with his burning eyes were the admitted candidates in this imperial examination.

In order to ensure that the plan to control the capital city is foolproof, the top few candidates in this imperial examination should all be from the Ye family.

But now, the two people who suddenly appeared had outstanding achievements, and he had already sensed a vague sense of threat.

"It would be best if you can recruit me. If you don't appreciate it, then..."

There was a flash of murderous intent in his eyes, and then he put the parchment aside.

When I picked up the blue and white porcelain teacup and was about to savour it carefully, I heard a sound of hurried running, and someone broke open the gate of the yard and crawled in.

"Who is it?! Don't you know I'm enjoying my tea?!"

"Report! Report to the Patriarch!"

"What are you in such a hurry for?! Speak slowly!"

Looking at the servant in front of him, he was so angry that he had to drink some tea to calm down.

"Master, the people who were sent to clean up the Wudang tavern... were almost... wiped out!"

"puff!"

The originally sweet tea suddenly turned bitter.

"What! With so many people, can't they even handle an old man half buried in the ground and a scholar disguised as a man?"

The man said angrily.

"No... there is another person helping us, he is very skilled in martial arts, we... are no match for him at all!"

"Huh! Do you know the name?!"

"Call... Chen Baoan..."

When the man heard this, his pupils trembled and he suddenly understood something.

"It takes no effort at all!"

whispered.

"Go! Bring that guy to me!"

"But Patriarch, this expedition has caused a lot of trouble, and the higher-ups..."

The servant reminded tremblingly.

"...Then...invite him over!"

"Yes!"
