Chapter 2224: Huang Clan Versus Dragon Hunters, Chu Kuangren Helped Secretly
Somewhere else in Myriad Arms City, spies from the Dragon-blooded Huang clan gathered.
"Where's Huang Weiwei?"
"She went missing when tailing Chu Kuangren."
An elderly man frowned and said, "It seems like she got impatient and Chu Kuangren noticed her."
Then, the man's expression turned strict, and he said, "I summon all of you for one matter and one matter only: the Dragonhunters have acquired the Dragonslayer."
Everyone was shocked by the news.
"What?"
"Are you serious?"
"Chu Kuangren handed over the Ultimate Supreme Treasure?"
The elderly man continued, "It's true. The Dragonslayer is the Dragon Hunter's heirloom treasure, and it's difficult for outsiders to refine it. Rather than keeping a treasure that he couldn't refine, why not make a deal with the Dragon Hunters to gain a huge profit? Chu Kuangren probably had the same thought and traded the Dragonslayer away."
"In that case, we should make a move."
"Yeah. We cannot let Wang Yi and his men return to the Dragon Hunters with the Dragonslayer, or we will lose all our chances."
"Let's do it."
After knowing Wang Yi and his men had acquired the Dragonslayer, the Dragon-blooded Huang clan reacted.
A fierce war was bound to happen.
...
On the other hand, after Wang Yi retrieved the Dragonslayer, he immediately reported to the Dragon Hunter Leader.
"Are you sure it's the real Dragonslayer?"
"Yes. I have checked it with the secret technique."
"Very well. Chu Kuangren isn't all stupid. He knows what's best for him, and keeping the Dragonslayer will only stand against us. Trading it back for profit and earning a favor from us is the much better deal."
The Dragon Hunter Leader chuckled. Then, his eyes turned frosty. "Too bad he killed Honorable Seven Evils, Huang Jiulong, and the others back in the Dragon Tombs. Trading back the Dragonslayer to us won't put him on good terms with us."
"I understand."
Wang Yi nodded.
"Bring the Dragonslayer back immediately."
"Yes, sir."
Wang Yi and his men immediately left Myriad Arms City with the Dragonslayer.
There was another group who followed them out of the city.
High up above Myriad Arms City, a pair of eyes watched closely as two different groups of cultivators left the city.
The pair of eyes narrowed wickedly, and a grin appeared on the person's face.
...
"Elder Wang Yi, you have done the Dragon Hunters a great deal for retrieving the Dragonslayer. The leader will reward you for it," Lu Yun said to Wang Yi.
"Haha. Everyone contributed," Want Yi said.
He started to anticipate what reward he would receive from the leader.
Suddenly, something strange happened. Strange restriction seals appeared from the void and formed a massive boundary.
"It's an ambush!" Wang Yi shouted in shock.
Multiple figures emerged from the void, and the leader was an elderly man.
Judging from the powerful aura, the elderly man was a Grand Dao Supreme Honorable.
His men were equally powerful as well. They were all in the Grand Dao Realm, and there were more than a hundred of them.
More than a hundred Grand Dao cultivators were sent to intercept them?
Only a few forces had the power to mobilize so many men.
"Who are you?"
"Is the Pan Gu Sect trying to take the Dragonslayer back?" Lu Yun shouted angrily.
However, Wang Yi denied his speculation. "Impossible. The Pan Gu Sect doesn't have so many Grand Dao cultivators yet. Besides, the Pan Gu Sect doesn't even need that many people to take the Dragonslayer back. Chu Kuangren alone is enough."
It was true. With Chu Kuangre's strength, he was more than enough to deal with everyone, so the advantage in numbers was unnecessary.
"If not Chu Kuangren, who?"
"Get them!"
While the Dragon Hunters hesitated, the ambusher attacked with domineering dragon qi.
At the moment of the attack, their identity was exposed. It was too obvious.
Wang Yi instantly knew who they were. "The Dragon-blooded Huang clan!"
"Yeah. None of you can escape here alive!"
"Damn it! You people pretend to work with us just to get the Dragonslayer, you dirty double-crossers! You'll die for what you have done!" Wang Yi was furious.
He engaged the leader of the ambushers.
Their battle shook the land.
However, the Dragon-blooded Huang clan had the advantage of numbers, and the formation they set up boosted their odds of victory.
Soon, Wang Yi and the Dragon Hunters fell into a disadvantageous position.
The leader of the opposite successfully landed a punch on Wang Yi, causing the latter to spit out a mouthful of blood.
The Dragonslayer that he carried on his back was flung away.
"No! The Dragonslayer!"
Wang Yi tried to retrieve it, but the ambushers stopped him.
In the end, the elderly man acquired the Dragonslayer.
"Finally, the Dragonslayer."
The elderly man looked at the treasure in his possession with the utmost eagerness. Then, he looked at Wang Yi and the others. "Kill them all."
"Yes, sir!"
The battle continued, and the Dragon Hunters were dying fast.
"Ah!"
Lu Yun was killed by a group of ambushers.
"We can't let this continue. Even if we can't retrieve the Dragonslayer, we have to inform the leader of the Huang clan's schemes!" Wang Yi thought to himself.
He roared and reversed his Great Dao to increase his power.
"Dragon-blooded Huang clan, just you wait!" Wang Yi shouted.
He forcefully raised his power to the limit and broke through the boundary between the cultivation realms.
The elderly man was shocked. "We cannot let him escape! Go get him!"
"Yes, sir!"
Two elites of the Huang clan went after Wang Yi.
The elderly man wanted to leave with the Dragonslayer, but someone appeared from the shadows.
All the Huang clan cultivators were blasted away. Even the elderly man was pushed back.
The little engagement made him lose the Dragonslayer.
"No!"
Mortified, the elderly man got up and went after the mysterious figure.
They had gone through the hill just to snatch the Dragonslayer from Wang Yi, so they could not afford to lose it to some unknown person!
"B*stard, stop right there!" he shouted and threw a punch forward. Domineering dragon qi blasted the person away.
The impact flung the bronze box into the sky.
As the Huang clan cultivators jumped up to retrieve the box, the mysterious figure disappeared into the shadows.
"Phew. Luckily, we got the Dragonslayer back."
The elderly man breathed a sigh of relief when he got the bronze box back. However, he frowned in the direction the mysterious figure fled to. "Who the hell is that?"
"Hm. I think it's best we wait for the others. We cannot let Wang Yi escape back to the Dragon Hunters."
The consequences would be unimaginable if the Huang clan and the Dragon Hunters had a complete fallout.
Having reversed his Great Dao, Wang Yi escaped as fast as he could.
However, the cultivators from the Huang clan persistently stayed on his tail.
"Wang Yi, you can't escape! Die!"
One of the cultivators attacked.
That was when a vigorous murderous qi came from the void, and a blast of blazing flame scorched the sky.
The Huang clan cultivators were instantly blasted away.
Wang Yi seized the chance to escape.
"Damn it! Someone is here!"
The Huang clan cultivators looked around cautiously, but when they did not see the mysterious attacker, they got anxious.
"Did the person leave already?"
"It's too fast. Who could it be?"
They were confused.
They looked in the direction where Wang Yi escaped, frustrated.
"Damn it. He escaped."
"Fortunately, we've got our hands on the Dragonslayer. Let's just head back first."
