Chapter 13: Attack On The Road, Entrusted By The Head Escort

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

The next day, outside the Dragon Gate Escort Agency.

Hundreds of escorts rode on huge horses with swords at their waists. Their auras were imposing.

It had been a long time since He Yushan personally led a team. He held a silver spear in his hand and rode out of the escort agency on a big horse.

“Greetings, chief escort!”

Seeing He Yushan appear, nearly 100 escorts shouted in unison.

Back then, He Yushan, who had made a name for himself in Lin’an City with his spear, had once again raised his spear to fight today, making everyone feel ardor and zeal coursing through their blood.

Even though they knew that this mission was very dangerous, He Yushan’s personal appearance made the escort agencies very confident.

After all, He Yushan was a first-rate expert. Apart from the few sect masters and elders in the pugilistic world, not many people could compete with him.

At the same time that He Yushan rode his horse out, a carriage slowly drove out of the escort agency, attracting everyone’s attention.

He Yushan looked at Zhang Xuan, who was standing in the carriage, and waved his hand.

“Let’s go!”

With He Yushan’s order, a team of nearly 100 people set off majestically, attracting the attention of countless people in Lin’an City.

“Why did the Dragon Gate Escort Agency create such a huge commotion?”

“Is something big about to happen?”

Everyone discussed it animatedly when they saw this scene. They were all very curious about what mission the Dragon Gate Escort Agency had accepted.

It had been a long time since they had seen such a scene.

After the escort agency’s horse team left Lin’an City, they were very careful along the way.

More than 10 escorts were scouting ahead, and more than 10 escorts were arranged behind to guard against any accidents.

The remaining escorts guarded the left and right of the carriage. Everyone had swords in their hands and were prepared to attack at any time.

It could be said that everyone was extremely tense, but there was an accident.

Zhang Xuan, who was in charge of protecting the mother and son, had a calm expression. There was no pressure or nervousness.

Zhang Xuan’s indifference came from his confidence in his own strength.

Under everyone’s cautiousness, the journey was relatively peaceful. However, when they walked out of Lin’an City’s territory, they were suddenly blocked by men in black.

There were about 30 over men in black. They were all dressed in the same black outfit. The leader was burly and held a machete in his hand. He had a powerful aura.

As this group of men in black appeared, all the escorts tightened their grip on their weapons and stared at this group of people warily.

He Yushan raised his eyebrows and said loudly,

“Who are you? What are you doing here?”

Although he had guessed the intentions of these people, He Yushan did not attack immediately.

The other party did not seem to have many people, but there was no guarantee that there was no one in the dark.

After all, He Yushan could be considered an overlord. He had experienced all kinds of storms.

“Leave the people in the car!”

The leader pointed at Zhang Xuan’s carriage and said in a deep voice.

Upon hearing this, He Yushan’s expression darkened, and a cold killing intent flashed in his eyes.

“You’re quite bold. Do you think you can touch the escort agency’s business?”

“Retreat quickly, or I’ll kill you without mercy!”

He Yushan shouted and pointed his Silver Dragon Spear at the leader of the men in black.

All escorts also withdrew their swords and sabers. A murderous aura filled the air, enveloping this space.

“Since you don’t want face, we can only take them ourselves!”

“Brothers, follow me and kill!”

The leader of the men in black raised his machete and charged towards He Yushan.

Dozens of men in black followed closely behind the man. They raised their weapons high and charged forward.

“Protect the people in the car!”

He Yushan roared and charged towards the man in the lead.

The silver spear swept out, and an explosion sounded in the air. It was like a silver snake coming out of its hole and stabbing out.

Apart from more than 10 escorts protecting the carriage, everyone else raised their weapons and charged towards the group of men in black.

A chaotic battle broke out in an instant. The combat strength of the men in black was not weak. They were on par with the escort agency.

In particular, the black-robed man in the lead was also a first-rate expert. His combat strength was on par with He Yushan’s, and they were locked in a stalemate.

Sitting in the carriage, Zhang Xuan, who was guarding the mother and son, looked at the chaotic battle in front of him. His eyes flickered.

With his Connate Realm cultivation, it was actually very simple to deal with these people, but he did not do anything unusual.

Since He Yushan was personally leading the team, no matter what happened, as long as he was not in danger, there was no need for Zhang Xuan to expose himself.

After all, this mother and son were involved in the Immortal Sword Case. The faction that had designs on this mother and son was definitely not simple.

He was just an ordinary escort in the escort agency. It was enough for him to do what He Yushan instructed him to do and be worthy of the treatment of the escort agency.

The chaotic battle only lasted for a moment. After the leader’s machete was broken by He Yushan’s spear, he shouted, “Retreat!”

Dozens of men in black retreated without hesitation and quickly disappeared.

“The chief escort is mighty!”

All the escorts looked at He Yushan in admiration and cheered.

On the other hand, He Yushan felt that something was amiss. These men in black were not weak, especially the man leading the team. He was on par with him. How could they retreat so easily?

“Everyone, stay alert.”

Although He Yushan was puzzled, he did not dwell on it. After instructing everyone, he continued on his way.

After walking for a while, the men in black who had retreated earlier suddenly charged out again when the people from the escort agency let down their guard.

However, these people did not shout and kill like before. They rode their horses and attacked the escort agency’s formation before quickly leaving.

He Yushan’s expression turned even uglier. He could tell what these men in black were up to. They were deliberately harassing them and draining their energy.

He Yushan’s worries were quickly confirmed. For the next part of the journey, the men in black did not fight the escort agency head-on. They just harassed them in all kinds of ways, causing the escort agencies to be exhausted from dealing with them. It was obvious that they were exhausted.

This harassment lasted for a few days. All the escorts became very tired, but no one dared to relax at all.

That night, when the convoy passed by a valley, their path was blocked again.

It was still the same group of men in black, but there were a lot more of them. Their number of men was almost the same as the escort agency’s, and every man in black was in their peak state.

“He Yushan, leave that mother and son behind and let you leave safely. Otherwise, you will all die with them.”

The leader of the men in black stepped out of the crowd and stared coldly at He Yushan.

“You think you’re qualified to threaten me?”

He Yushan smiled coldly and had no intention of compromising.

However, although He Yushan looked domineering, he was actually very uneasy.

The other party had obviously come prepared. Coupled with the fact that the escort agency had exhausted too much energy, they might not be able to protect the mother and son.

As he berated the man in black, he whispered to Zhang Xuan,

“I’ll bring people to hold them back. Don’t worry about anything else. Leave with the two of them first.”

Although He Yushan was very confident in himself, he was not arrogant. He had to make two preparations.

“Alright!”

Zhang Xuan nodded slightly and left with the mother and son in the carriage.
