413: Chapter 413 Don't Kill Me

Han Jingyang raised an eyebrow.

What did it mean to "take advantage of someone when they're down"?

He wasn't sick.

Could it be... that these Japanese invaders were here to scavenge for kills?

In other words, were these Japanese invaders connected to Liu Cheng and Huang Jianshe's group?

Or perhaps they were even the same group?

Otherwise, it would be impossible for this group of Japanese invaders to arrive at such a convenient time.

Damn it!

Han Jingyang was rarely this angry.

He usually didn't get angry easily; the last time he was this angry was when his family was kidnapped and threatened.

And now, this time!

He hated treacherous collaborators the most!

He would deal with these Japanese invaders first, then settle the score with the ones surnamed Liu and Huang.

Just as he was about to make a move, Shi Xiaoya and Great Monk Kongyun had already charged out, brimming with murderous intent; their hatred for these treacherous Japanese invaders was no less than his own.

Then, those few Japanese invaders who hadn't even found their footing were in for it.

They were struck hard by Shi Xiaoya and Great Monk Kongyun.

The Japanese invaders' goal was to finish off the survivors and scavenge for loot, or at worst, delay them to buy time for their accomplices at Thousand Buddha Mountain.

As a result, the moment they stepped out of the car, they were caught completely off guard by Shi Xiaoya and Great Monk Kongyun, who were at full strength; they never expected such a situation, making it impossible to carry out their pre-planned schemes or even their contingency plans.

In less than a minute, all the Japanese invaders in the three cars were wiped out.

Shi Xiaoya caught her breath, her anger dissipated, and she turned to ask Han Jingyang, "What do we do next?"

What to do?

Han Jingyang took out his phone to check. There were several messages from Liu Jing, as they had previously agreed: send a message every so often, and also send a message upon discovering the enemy and when the battle began.

The messages he had received so far were all checking in and saying hello; no enemies had been discovered yet.

This meant they still had plenty of time.

Then, they would hunt them down.

As for collaborators, he would kill them if he could, without any mercy.

Thinking of this, he rummaged through his storage bag and pulled out an item with a Tracking skill.

A bamboo dragonfly.

An item from the Republic of China era.

Rank 6.

Its attribute was Tracking + 3.

But its skill was quite good—Trail Finding.

Trail Finding, as the name suggests, could be used to find people. As long as there was a clue—no matter what kind, whether it was a used item, fingernails, hair, or blood—it could be used.

It just so happened that Liu Cheng's house had information left over from when Liu Cheng and Huang Jianyong had eaten and drank; saliva would remain on the chopsticks and wine glasses, and saliva was an excellent clue.

They went to Liu Cheng's house and checked; sure enough, the items were still there.

He took out the bamboo dragonfly and activated the skill.

The next second, a phantom image of the bamboo dragonfly flew out from the actual object, soared into the sky, and flew westward.

Han Jingyang waved his hand, "Follow."

As he spoke, he added a buff, the kind that increased running speed.

With the buff added, the three of them instantly increased their running speed to a sprint, chasing after the bamboo dragonfly.

In less than twenty minutes.

The three of them saw Liu Cheng's disheveled figure.

Liu Cheng was panting heavily. When he looked back, he was so terrified his soul nearly left his body, wearing an expression as if he had seen a ghost, "You, how did you, how did you find me?"

Han Jingyang couldn't be bothered to waste words on this man and waved his hand.

Shi Xiaoya rushed over and slashed fiercely.

"Pfft—"

The blade struck, but it didn't cause any damage at all.

A defensive dharma instrument?

Han Jingyang raised an eyebrow.

Liu Cheng immediately knelt on the ground and kowtowed frantically, "Mr. Han, don't kill me, don't kill me! I'm still useful, very useful, I can create gods..."

Before he could finish, Shi Xiaoya struck again.

This strike was clean and swift, ending Liu Cheng's life.

This kind of trash deserved to die!

Then, it was time for Huang Jianshe.

However, after using the skill on the wine glass that Huang Jianshe had used, the phantom of the bamboo dragonfly only spun in place.

This meant there was a higher-level dharma instrument or spell concealing his tracks.

Huang Jianshe had some tricks up his sleeve.

If he had known, he should have just killed that guy last time.

It was just that there hadn't been any evidence at the time, and he had too much on his plate, so he let Huang Jianshe go. He hadn't expected things to turn out like this.

Forget it.

He would catch that old bastard when he had the chance later.

As long as he was still in the country, there would definitely be a chance to catch him.

At this moment, Han Jingyang received a message from Liu Jing: "The enemy has ascended the mountain, over two hundred people. They are expected to enter our encirclement in ten minutes."

Ten minutes?

Over two hundred people?

Han Jingyang nodded at Great Monk Kongyun, "Let's go, there's still time."

Great Monk Kongyun also became nervous, "There's still time?"

"There's still time!"

Ten minutes wasn't actually enough.

They needed to return to the village entrance to get the car and drive to Thousand Buddha Mountain, which would take at least twenty minutes.

At least!

But Liu Jing, Yang Jinyuan, plus Xu Xin and Zhou Changzhu—even if these four weren't a match for them, they could definitely hold out for a while.

If they adopted delaying tactics, fighting while retreating, they could easily stall for ten minutes or even longer.

One had to know that these four were equipped with quite a few items, especially Liu Jing, who could be said to be armed to the teeth. With her skills fully activated, she alone could stall for ten minutes and complete a large number of kills.

If they could employ some tactics, they could delay even longer.

For example, striking hard the moment they met, using their strongest skills to kill a few experts, and intimidating the group of Japanese invaders would be even more effective for stalling.

It was just that he was worried the Japanese invaders would use more powerful dharma instruments.

A single powerful dharma instrument could turn the entire tide of the battle.

Therefore, the three of them rushed back at maximum speed, not even bothering with Li Mingjian at Chaotian Temple.

They couldn't worry about that anymore.

Calling an ambulance was already doing the best they could.

Thousand Buddha Mountain.

The four of them, led by Liu Jing, lay in ambush at the intersection leading to Xingguo Zen Temple, staring intently at the road below.

Time ticked by, second by second.

Liu Jing suddenly took out her phone and sent a message to Han Jingyang: "The enemy has entered the ambush zone. We are preparing to strike. Boss, I love you."

After sending the message, she put away her phone and quietly drew the precious sword that Han Jingyang had just used once.

Then, she tapped Yang Jinyuan on the shoulder.

Yang Jinyuan jolted, then tapped Xu Xin, and Xu Xin, with an unchanging expression, tapped Zhou Changzhu.

The four of them stood up quietly at the same time, drew their weapons, and prepared for battle.

When the group of Japanese invaders walked up to them, Liu Jing silently activated her skills, preparing for battle.

Sword God Possession!

Pixiu Battle Armor!

She raised her hand and struck with a sword.

A sharp and concealed sword qi swept out, heading straight for the two Japanese invaders walking at the very front.

"Swish—"

Heads fell to the ground.

At the same time, Zhou Changzhu, Xu Xin, and Yang Jinyuan jumped down and silently charged into the enemy group.

Zhou Changzhu's eight-edged hammer had been modified with a one-meter-long iron chain. He swung it fiercely, and with a clattering sound, it directly struck a Japanese invader in the face. With a deft pull, he caught the returning eight-edged hammer, rushed forward, and smashed down with it; it was like a watermelon hit by a heavy blow, instantly exploding.

A heavy weapon was a heavy weapon; its lethality was completely different from ordinary light weapons. Both were equally deadly, but the intimidation factor was on a completely different level.

Zhou Changzhu's fighting style, alternating between long-range and close-quarters, made him look like a god of war; almost no Japanese invader dared to block him, and they could only dodge.

As for Shi Xiaoya, it was simple: she seized the opportunity to unleash sword qi to reap heads. The invisible sword qi doubled in lethality on the narrow path, and a single sweep of her sword could hit at least three or four people.

So much so that Xu Xin and Yang Jinyuan actually had nothing to do, and could only protect Liu Jing as they advanced slowly.

Well, in their eyes, anyone else could die, but Liu Jing could not.

Because Liu Jing was Han Jingyang's woman. Although their relationship hadn't officially crossed that line, everyone knew that the person Han Jingyang liked the most was actually Liu Jing, and Liu Jing was also the person who had followed Han Jingyang the longest. Even without a romantic relationship, the bond was definitely not simple.

If they knew that Han Jingyang owed much of his success today to Liu Jing, they would probably enshrine her directly.
