第54章 遇伏
"Officer, where are we heading to at this border?"
a middle-aged prisoner in front of Wen Yu asked in a flattering tone to the prison guard next to him.
"Stop talking nonsense, you will know once we get there."
These prison guards obviously weren't buying into his act, as they shouted at him loudly and shut him up.
After walking for a while, the prisoner felt extremely bored and tried to strike up conversations with the two prisoners in front of him. However, both of them seemed reluctant to interact with him.
"Young brother, is it true that the rumors of you killing Li Xiu?"
Although Wen Yu is not very willing to speak with him, she nodded to him out of politeness.
Getting Wen Yu's nod, the middle-aged man was slightly surprised, and then was overjoyed.
“Li Xiuping used to be arrogant and domineering. I never expected that one day he would also be killed by someone else.”
“Do you have a grudge against him?”
“I don't have a personal grudge against him, but I can't stand people like him. Well done for killing him, young brother. However, I'm surprised that you were not avenged by his father, Li Zhi.”
Wen Yu looked at him in bewilderment. Isn't this considered retaliation? Seeing Wen Yu's confusion, the person became interested.
"Young man, you are not aware of something. Li Xiu's father, Li Zhi, is notorious for protecting his own. If you kill his son, he will definitely not let you off so easily."
"What are you two whispering about?"
The head jailer stopped in his tracks and walked towards the two individuals.
"Sir jailer, we weren't whispering about anything, just casually chatting."
中年男子慌忙解释道，可是为首狱卒压根就没搭理他，盯着溫钰。
"The two of you shackle him and make him behave."
为首狱卒指着溫钰说道，身旁的两名狱卒从乾坤袋中拿出枷锁朝溫钰走来，溫钰眉头一皱，他显然是没得罪为首狱卒，可是却遭到针对，显然是有阴谋。
Wen Yu's divine sense explored the surroundings and indeed discovered something unusual. It seems that the leader of the prison guards has been bribed by Li Zhi.
Seeing two prison guards approaching with handcuffs, these handcuffs would restrain the spiritual power within one's body. If one were to be shackled, they would become completely at the mercy of others. The only option is to resist. With agile movements, Wen Yu arrived beside the two prison guards and knocked them unconscious with two hand chop strikes. These prison guards are only at the Foundation Establishment early to mid-stage, while the leader is at the Golden Core early stage.
“溫钰你知道你在干嘛，你只是罪加一等，炎帝陛下不会放过你的。”
“愈加之罪何患无辞，既然来了那就出来吧！”
Wen Yu used his spiritual energy and shouted towards the surroundings. Soon, four or five assassins appeared in front of everyone.
"Since we've been discovered, let's just attack directly!"
The leader of the assassins signaled them to be ready to attack. Wen Yu looked at the five individuals, three were at the mid-stage of the Golden Core realm, one was at the late-stage of the Golden Core realm, and one was at the peak of the late-stage of the Golden Core realm.
“李治果然看得起我，派了五名金丹后期的高手来杀我。”
“什么李治我们不知道，我们只是单纯的想杀人而已。”
"At this point, I am surrounded by you. Is it still necessary to pretend?"
"You choose to be a fool, being too clever isn't always a good thing"
"Seems like you guys are admitting it."
为首之人知道自己话语中的漏洞被溫钰给抓住了，有些恼怒，索性就不在和溫钰废话。
"Take action."
五名杀手同时动手，这些狱卒不知道该怎么办，向他们的上级投去询问的目光。
"No matter what happens, they only want to kill Wenyu."
"Idiot."
"What did you say?"
The leading prison guard stared fiercely at Wenyu and said, "
“我说你们蠢，你认为他们会为留下证据，当然是全部杀了。”
"Don't listen to his nonsense. Mr. Li told me that he only killed Wen Yu, and the rest of us will receive a fortune."
The head jailer didn't even finish his sentence before feeling a cold sensation on his neck, looking at his killer with disbelief on his face.
"Why?"
After saying that, he fell to the ground and died.
"Why, because you were too naive."
These prison guards, seeing their superior being killed, were filled with panic. Only then did they realize how correct Wen Yu's words were. They all turned to Wen Yu, casting questioning glances about what to do next.
“你们各自朝不同的方向逃吧，这样或许活下去的机会会大一些。”
溫钰自身难保，也顾及不到这些狱卒，只能让他们各自逃命。
After hearing Wen Yu's words, these prison guards quickly fled in different directions.
Seeing the prison guards escaping, the leader signaled one assassin to chase after them.
现场还有三名囚犯和溫钰被四名杀手包围，溫钰看了看这些杀手，召唤出初见，劈断了三名囚犯身上的枷锁。
“你们也逃命去吧！”
Thank you.
两名囚犯望了溫钰一眼，随后便转身逃去，一名杀手快速追了出去，那名和溫钰之前聊天的中年囚犯却没有逃去，溫钰对此有些不解。
“你为什么不跟着他们逃命去？”
“我将臣最讲义气了，反正横竖都是一死，何不死的光彩一点呢？”
中年囚犯前后的变化，虽然让溫钰有些不解，但他现在的气魄让溫钰有些钦佩。
Three assassins rushed towards them, leaving no room for Wen Yu to think.
"Jiang Chen, can you temporarily hold off one of the assassins?"
"Don't worry, even though I'm only at the early stage of the Golden Core realm, I should be able to delay a mid-stage Golden Core assassin for a while."
这样的话溫钰需要对付一名金丹后期和一名金丹后期巅峰的杀手，将臣拖住一名金丹中期的杀手为溫钰争取时间。
"Take action."
两名杀手朝杀了过来，溫钰连忙召唤初见在手，施展飞鸿踏雪泥闪躲两名杀手的攻击，伺机寻找机会。
Another mid-stage Golden Core killer also rushed towards Jiangchen, who then burst with a force, his whole body becoming rigid and coated with a layer of golden color.
"So, you specialize in cultivating your physical body, it seems it will take some effort to deal with you."
"Stop talking nonsense and come at me, let's see who falls first."
"Alright, I'll fulfill your wish."
