Chapter 469 Escape
Chapter 469 Escape
The young master smiled triumphantly, and then ordered: "Catch him alive."
As soon as he finished speaking, four people attacked Li Jingran, and the others all drew out knives from the decorations on the side. Then they did not move, some stared at Li Jingran, and some looked at the door vigilantly.
Obviously, they also knew that there must be someone following Li Jingran.
It was relatively easy for Li Jingran to deal with the four people. After all, he had chased Liu Qiuwu to the camp, and he often fought with Ling Chuan due to jealousy, so his skills were not weak.
He blocked left and attacked right, his moves were swift, fierce and accurate, never giving his opponent a chance to counterattack.
The same goes for the other party.
In a blink of an eye, the men exchanged more than ten moves. Not only did the four fail to capture Li Jingran, but two of them were swept away by him. One of them fell heavily on the bird rack, which overturned in an instant. The birdcage fell to the ground, startled the bird inside and screamed, flapping its wings and hitting the cage.
The smug look on the young man's face disappeared in an instant. He glanced at the door with a serious look, and then joined the battle with three other people. He grabbed Li Jingran who was fighting with others with his eagle claw hand.
Li Jingran was alert to the danger and dodged it narrowly. However, he avoided the young man, but because he lost his rhythm and failed to defend himself, he was hit by the other person and felt numb in pain.
The young master and others took advantage of the victory to pursue Li Jingran, not giving him a chance to breathe. Once his moves were resolved, they immediately found a gap and surrounded him tightly.
Li Jingran was alone and weak after all, and the young man was also a master with very tricky moves. Li Jingran was under increasing pressure, and gradually became unable to cope with it. He suffered a lot and could not help but curse inwardly with a dark face: This bastard must have done it on purpose. Seeing that he was being beaten up, why didn't he come in to help? The group of people he kept are also good-for-nothings!
Li Jingran bit his cheek and kicked away another person who was about to attack him. He raised his voice and shouted in dissatisfaction: "Why don't you come in and help!"
As soon as these words were spoken, those who were on high alert immediately raised their swords and took defensive postures, including the young man, whose eyes became stern and his attacks became more fierce. After all, as long as people were alive, it didn't matter whether they were injured or not.
Li Jingran was hit again, his clothes were torn and blood slowly seeped out. He couldn't help but curse the unreliable people again.
Seeing that no one came in, the young man curled his lips and said to Li Jingran, "I'm afraid your people can't come in."
Li Jingran had a guess, but he didn't think Ling Chuan would die in their hands. He sneered as he returned his hand, "That's not certain. Maybe you won't be able to get out."
The young master also sneered, and while his subordinates were struggling with Li Jingran, he turned around, took out a pair of spiked fist rings from a secret cabinet beside him, put them on, and then attacked with a heavy punch.
Li Jingran dodged, fought back, and fought with him to a standstill.
Just when Li Jingran couldn't help but want to curse his father again, someone finally rushed in, drew his knife sharply, and killed the two people who rushed to stop him on the spot.
Li Jingran was overjoyed, but the young master's face suddenly changed. He had issued a death order. If this person could come in, it would mean that all the people he left outside would be wiped out.
After Ling Chuan came in, Li Jingran's secret guards also followed in and fought with the people inside. There were flashes of swords and clanging of knives. The blood splattered and was accompanied by the last whimpers of the fallen.
After Ling Chuan dealt with the people who were in the way, he went to help Li Jingran. With his joining, the situation was instantly reversed and the young man was beaten back repeatedly, seriously injured and vomiting blood.
Li Jingran gave him a wicked smile and said, "I told you it was too early to speak. Look, it has come true. You can't get out."
The young man covered his chest with his hands, his eyes full of unwillingness. He didn't say a word, but just glanced coldly around the room. All his people were dead.
He turned his head and looked at Li Jingran again, gritting his teeth and said, "You already knew our plan."
Li Jingran shook his head and said truthfully: "I don't know."
The young man didn't believe it. He glanced at Ling Chuan who was beside Li Jingran. He knew that he was doomed, so he asked persistently, "When did you find out that there was a trick?"
Li Jingran said narcissistically, "It's okay to tell you. I did go with you, but I didn't believe you. I don't believe you anymore after coming here. After all, I am a famous person in Beijing, but no one approaches me."
Too deliberate. Oh no, to be exact, he had been keeping an eye on them ever since they showed up at the restaurant he often visited.
Ling Chuan looked at him with disdain. He didn't want to waste time, but was also worried that this person was stalling. He said coldly, "Stop talking nonsense."
When Li Jingran heard him speak, he wanted to mock him and asked if he had become weak. It took him so long to come in. If it was any later, he would definitely lose his new uncle!
Fearing that there might be ears on the other side of the wall, Li Jingran finally held back and turned around to tell his secret guards: "Go search the back."
"Yes!"
The secret guards took orders and rushed to the backyard with knives in hand. Only Ling Chuan, Li Jingran and the young master were left at the scene.
Ling Chuan went straight ahead without saying anything.
When he moved, the other two also moved, but one was an ally and the other was an enemy.
Ling Chuan wanted to capture him alive, but based on past experience, it was unlikely.
As expected, after a fight, the exhausted young master committed suicide by taking poison, and the secret guard who went to search the backyard also came back to report that there was no one in the backyard.
Li Jingran nodded to show that he understood, asked them to dispose of the body, and left with Ling Chuan.
…………
In the Grand Prince's Mansion, Jin Xuhua, who learned that the mission had failed, angrily shouted, "A bunch of rubbish! With so many people, they can't even take down Li Jingran!"
The subordinate who was kneeling on one knee did not dare to say anything and just lowered his head to wait for orders.
After venting his anger, Jin Xuhua took a deep breath, waved away his subordinates and said, "You continue to keep an eye on the Liu Mansion, especially the man you just mentioned. I suspect he is Ling Chuan."
Ling Chuan? The subordinate was shocked. He had heard of the great achievements of General Ling. He was a top-notch martial artist. No wonder Jin Yao died in this mission.
"Yes, my subordinate will go right away."
After the subordinate finished speaking, he stood up and was about to leave, but was stopped by Jin Xuhua again.
"Wait, add some people to the Xianwang Mansion to keep an eye on it."
The subordinate was a little puzzled, but still responded respectfully: "Yes."
After he left, Jin Xuhua sat back and rubbed his eyebrows in frustration.
He had been unable to identify the person behind the Shen family, and he had a hunch that he could not control the situation. This made him very uneasy, and he always felt that they had fallen into the enemy's hunting net.
We can't delay any longer. The longer we delay, the more disadvantageous it will be for them.
Jin Xuhua sat for a while with a calm look in his eyes, then stood up to discuss with the leader of Xuanyue Kingdom.
On the other hand, Ling Chuan didn't know that his identity had aroused Jin Xuhua's suspicion, and he accurately guessed that it was him.
But even if he knew it, he would not be afraid, because he and Li Jingran received good news as soon as they returned home.
