Chapter 427: Reinforcements Arrive
The chain was turned into Yin Qi and dispersed, Master Wu's face changed, he wanted to use his hand again to condense the chain, but the sloppy man did not give him this chance.
A flash of green light passed, and Master Wu felt a pain in his chest, a huge force directly knocked him away, colliding with Xiu Juan who had just gotten up from the ground.
"I want to see Yang Haoran, if you block me again, don't blame me for using force." The sloppy man spoke lightly, with a threatening tone.
Although Master Wu and Xiu Juan were knocked away by the sloppy man, they did not suffer fatal injuries. With the sloppy man's strength, if he intended to kill them, they would have died, or at least be in a very bad state.
Why the sloppy man did not kill them, Master Wu was not sure, but just based on this, it was impossible for him to give up obstructing and let the sloppy man enter the villa.
Although Yang Haoran was not in the villa, even if the sloppy man entered the villa, he would not be able to see Yang Haoran. But this is not a matter of whether Yang Haoran is in the villa or not, but a matter of attitude and stance.
Once concessions are made, it is equivalent to compromising with the enemy. This is not just a matter of losing face, if this spreads in Lecheng, it will also have a great impact on the credibility of their Lecheng Yin Division.
So the sloppy man's threat did not have any effect on Master Wu. As for Xiu Juan, it's even more unnecessary to say. Making this resentful evil spirit compromise is not impossible, but it's absolutely not easy. At least from the current situation, she has no intention of compromising at all.
As soon as the sloppy man finished speaking, Xiu Juan wanted to cast an illusion technique on him again, but was stopped by Master Wu.
"Xiu Juan, calm down and don't be reckless." Master Wu pulled Xiu Juan and reminded her in a deep voice.Although Xiu Juan was very reluctant, she still suppressed the urge to strike again, her milky white eyes fixed on the sloppy man, waiting for the right moment to cast the illusion technique again.
Seeing that Xiu Juan did not take action again, Master Wu breathed a slight sigh of relief. He wiped the fresh blood at the corner of his mouth, then turned his gaze back to the sloppy man.
"What do you want to see our Boss for?" Master Wu asked in a deep voice.
To some people, Master Wu might have asked a meaningless question, but if you think about it carefully, you will understand why he did so.
The reason he did this was only one, that is, to delay time as much as possible, and to hold out until reinforcements arrived.
However, whether the sloppy man saw through his plan, or because the sloppy man had already lost patience, he did not intend to continue talking nonsense with Master Wu.
"If he's not here, then I'll go in and wait for him. As for you two, you'll be my hostages."
The sloppy man sensed a weak power fluctuation in the villa, and at first he thought this power fluctuation was from Yang Haoran, but Yang Haoran had deliberately contained his power and only released a weak power fluctuation.
However, through the previous confrontation, he found that he might have guessed wrong. The weak power fluctuation in the villa might not have been emitted by Yang Haoran. If the person in the villa was really Yang Haoran, why wouldn't he come out and take a look with all the commotion outside? Wouldn't he be worried that the sloppy man had killed his two subordinates?
Of course, there was another possibility, that Yang Haoran was indeed in the villa, and the weak power fluctuation was also emitted by him, but for some reason he was unable to leave, so he was indifferent to the situation outside.
These were just the sloppy man's guesses, he dared not confirm whether the facts were as he had guessed. But no matter what the truth was, as long as he went into the villa and found out, everything would be clear. So he did not want to waste time here with Master Wu and Xiu Juan.
The sloppy man held a long sword and walked towards Master Wu's position. Seeing that the plan to delay time had failed, Master Wu's face looked a bit unsightly.
The sloppy man had made it very clear, he wanted to take him and Xiu Juan as hostages. If this succeeded, he would lose a lot of face today.
Watching the sloppy man approaching step by step, Master Wu once again mobilized the Yin spirit power in his body. However, due to the previous over-consumption of Yin spirit power in his body, now he had very little left.
At his peak, he was no match for the opponent at all, and in this state, he was even more inferior to the opponent. But Master Wu had no intention of retreating. No matter what the outcome was, he had decided to fight to the end and would never compromise.
But at this moment, several power fluctuations appeared, rapidly approaching from afar.
The sloppy man's footsteps paused, and he looked towards the distance. The black figures that were far away just a moment ago suddenly appeared in front of him.
The sound of breaking through the air kept sounding, and several people wearing black robes surrounded the sloppy man.
Their faces were hidden under the hoods, so it was impossible to see their expressions. But from the black Yin Qi emanating from them, they had all mobilized the Yin spirit power in their bodies and entered a combat state.
These Night Watch members were responsible for the Lecheng city area. After receiving the message sent out by Master Wu, they immediately put down their work and rushed over.
The incident happened suddenly, and only they could arrive in a short time. The Night Watch members responsible for the outskirts of the city could not have arrived in time in this situation, after all, they did not have the ability to tear through space.
At this critical moment, the timely arrival of these Night Watch members did make Master Wu feel a little relieved in his heart. Although he knew that their strength was limited and was nothing in the eyes of the sloppy man, their presence could at least delay the sloppy man for a moment, and during this moment, perhaps other reinforcements would arrive.
"You don't really think these few people can stop me, do you?" The sloppy man glanced at the Night Watch members surrounding him, then looked at Master Wu and asked.
"Of course I don't, but some things must be done even if they are impossible. Even if it means paying with our lives." Master Wu said in a deep voice.
The sloppy man paused for a moment, as if Master Wu's words had touched something in his heart. When he came back to his senses, he actually nodded at Master Wu.
"You're right, some things must be done even if they are impossible, even if it means sacrificing one's life." The sloppy man furrowed his brows, as if recalling something, and spoke lightly.
Master Wu did not understand the sloppy man, nor did he know the sloppy man's past, so he had no idea why the sloppy man would have such a remark.
However, he wished the sloppy man would keep reminiscing a little longer, so that he could gain more time.
But the sloppy man's next actions greatly exceeded Master Wu's expectations.
The sloppy man actually stuck his long sword into the ground again, then sat down on the ground, and then took out a can of beer from his spatial storage and started drinking it.
Master Wu was a bit confused, the sloppy man's current behavior really puzzled him, he didn't know what the sloppy man was trying to do.
"Your words just now reminded me of the real purpose of this trip. I'm not sure if the weak power fluctuation in the villa is from Yang Haoran or not, but it doesn't matter. I can wait for him to show up here."
After speaking, the sloppy man took another big gulp of beer, and it seemed that he had no intention of taking action again, but wanted to sit here and wait for Yang Haoran to appear.
Master Wu's brows furrowed, the sloppy man's behavior made him have some guesses in his heart, but whether his guess was the truth or not, he was not sure.
Although he was not sure about the sloppy man's true intentions, the fact that the sloppy man did not take action should be a good thing for him.
However, at this moment, the space next to Master Wu suddenly fluctuated, and then a rift opened in the space. Before a figure could be seen coming out, a voice with a smile rang out in this area.
"Long time no see, demon hunter."
