Chapter 2014: Strong reinforcements arrive
“Kid, so what if you’re not afraid of the Seven Steps Intestine Severing Powder’s poison? You’re still going to die for sure.”
Wang Jin’s face turned ashen with rage. With a flick of his wrist, a dazzling longsword appeared in his palm.
The Aura of a Body Integration Middle Stage expert suddenly erupted, instantly sealing off the entire room.
At the same time, the remaining eight Black-Clothed Men also took out their weapons and blocked off all eight directions, clearly to prevent Ye Bufan from escaping.
“It seems you’ve really prepared thoroughly.”
Ye Bufan smiled, his face showing no hint of panic.
“It seems you’re determined to win this. Can you answer a few questions for me?”
A doubt flashed in Wang Jin’s mind. Since the other party’s reaction was completely beyond his expectation, did he have some hidden trump card?
Seeing that he didn’t speak, Ye Bufan continued, “Just a few questions, it won’t take long. Even if I’m going to die, you should at least let me die knowing the truth, right?”
“Go ahead, what else do you want to ask?”
In Wang Jin’s view, he had completely gained control of the situation, so he wasn’t in a hurry to act.
At the same time, his heart was filled with curiosity, wondering what the other party still wanted to ask at this moment.
Ye Bufan said, “Um… I want to ask, how did you know I was here? Did you discover it early, or did you find this place later?”
“After the last incident, the Prince had people keeping an eye on Lingxiao Academy. As soon as you came out, we received a report.”
Wang Jin felt that this wasn’t much of a secret, so he didn’t hide anything.
“Oh!”
Ye Bufan nodded, then asked again, “Since that’s the case, why did you wait until now to act?”
“Does that even need to be said? When I rushed here with my men, Young Miss had already fallen into your hands. I naturally had to ensure the Princess’s safety first.”
Wang Jin was telling the truth. When the Prince’s spies sent back the information, he immediately rushed here with his experts. At that time, Song Yaoji had already fallen into Ye Bufan’s hands.
He was afraid of damaging the vase while throwing at the rat, fearing that he would be blackmailed by the other party, so he had not acted rashly.
“So that’s how it is.” Ye Bufan asked again, “Then when I came to this Hundred Flowers House and first changed Song Yaoji’s clothes, why didn’t you act then?”
As he said this, even Song Yaoji looked over, her eyes full of inquiry.
If Wang Jin had acted with his men at that time, she wouldn’t have to be dressed like a courtesan now.
“Your Highness, please don’t be angry. I did that for safety.”
Wang Jin (This chapter is not finished, please turn the page) quickly explained, “The Prince had told me early on that this kid is very cunning, and we must be careful when acting.
That’s why I first sent people to put the Seven Steps Intestine Severing Powder in his wine. This way, we would have more confidence when acting, and it would be best if we could capture him alive.”
Hearing his explanation, Song Yaoji merely snorted coldly and said nothing more.
Ye Bufan clapped his hands, “Indeed, a good plan.”
“Kid, you talk too much. Die!”
Wang Jin said, raising the longsword in his hand again, about to make his move.
“Wait, wait, one last question.”
Wang Jin said with a sullen face, “Any last words? Speak quickly!”
Ye Bufan smiled slightly, “I just want to ask you, how long would it take for a Body Integration Great Perfection expert to rush from the Imperial Palace Inner Courtyard to here?”
Wang Jin hesitated for a moment, then his expression instantly changed drastically, “You mean Zheng Sanbao will come?”
It was no wonder he had such a question. Looking at the entire Tianfeng Empire Imperial City, the only one who could reach Body Integration Great Perfection was the Imperial Palace’s top expert, Zheng Sanbao.
“Otherwise, what? Do you think I’m talking all this nonsense to you for no reason?”
In fact, from the moment Wang Jin appeared, Ye Bufan had been extremely nervous, and not as relaxed as he appeared on the surface.
He first secretly crushed the jade talisman Zheng Sanbao had given him, and then tried his best to stall for time, waiting for reinforcements to arrive.
And just now, he had already sensed Zheng Sanbao’s Aura, which was why he finally relaxed completely.
“Attack!”
Wang Jin also realized that something was wrong. He had originally thought he had complete control of the situation, but he didn’t expect that it wasn’t the case at all; the other party had strong reinforcements coming.
At this moment, he no longer hesitated. The treasured sword in his hand transformed into a dazzling streak of light, shooting towards Ye Bufan’s chest.
At the same time, the other eight Void Refining Realm experts also made their move, each wielding their weapons and attacking Ye Bufan.
And just then, a cold snort resounded throughout the room, followed by a figure in a green robe appearing before everyone, shielding Ye Bufan behind him. It was none other than Grand Manager Zheng Sanbao.
“How dare you!”
As an eunuch, Zheng Sanbao had always dreamed of restoring his damaged body. Previously, there was no way, but now he had finally found hope in Ye Bufan.
These people in front of him wanted to destroy that hope, which he absolutely could not accept. In his anger, his Aura suddenly erupted.
As the top expert of the Tianfeng Empire Imperial City, he was not just famous for nothing.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page) He casually waved his sleeve, and the eight Void Refining Realm experts flew out like fallen leaves, then exploded into a bloody mist.
There was nothing they could do. The Cultivation World was where the strong reigned supreme. In front of the Body Integration Great Perfection Realm, these people were truly no different from ants; they had no ability to resist at all.
After dealing with these people, he pointed a finger, and a sharp gust of wind shot directly towards Wang Jin.
Wang Jin was greatly alarmed and quickly unleashed a full-strength punch.
Unfortunately, the gap between Body Integration Middle Stage and Body Integration Great Perfection was too vast. His full-strength punch still had no effect whatsoever in terms of resistance.
Zheng Sanbao’s finger wind was like a sharp spear, instantly breaking through his punch and landing on his chest.
Wang Jin’s body immediately flew backward, spitting out a mouthful of blood in mid-air, and then crashing heavily to the ground.
He was filled with dread at this moment. He had known there was a gap between him and Zheng Sanbao, but he hadn’t expected the gap to be so huge that he couldn’t even block a single move from him.
He tried to crawl up from the ground and escape, but found that the acupoints on his body had been completely sealed, and he couldn’t exert even a tiny bit of strength.
A hint of disdain flashed in Zheng Sanbao’s eyes, then he turned to look at Ye Bufan, his stern face breaking into a benevolent smile: “Dr. Ye, this old servant didn’t come late, did I?”
“No, no, I thank Grand Manager for saving my Life Qi?”
Ye Bufan cupped his hands towards the old eunuch. Although he knew the other party had something to ask of him, he had, after all, saved him. This kindness had to be remembered.
“It’s nothing, nothing, just some clowns.” Zheng Sanbao waved his hand casually, then pointed to Wang Jin next to him, “I didn’t kill him just now; now it’s all up to Dr. Ye to decide.”
“Thank you, Grand Manager.”
Ye Bufan smiled, then walked towards Wang Jin. He first reached out and took off the other party’s Storage Ring.
In front of Zheng Sanbao, he dared not collect the other party’s Primordial Spirit, and the same went for the eight people who had just died.
Although the two of them were allies now, who knew what the future would hold? It was better to expose his secrets as little as possible.
After removing the Restriction on the Storage Ring, his Divine Sense swept inside, finding quite a few good things.
Countless gold coins and a large pile of Spirit Stones, as well as Medicinal Pills and Artifact Refining Materials, and other miscellaneous items.
Suddenly, his attention fell on a small bottle nearby. With a thought, it appeared in his palm.
He opened the lid and sniffed it; it was indeed the Seven Steps Intestine Severing Powder that had just been used.
