Medic Martial Dragon King

Chapter 853: Chapter 856: Encounter on the Road

Boom! Boom!

Two explosive sounds erupted, and before they even had a chance to resist, two men were killed at the hands of Sun Liang.

”Mr. Sun, they...” Lu Chengfeng poked his head out of the car window, furrowing his brow as he spoke.

Humming!

Before Lu Chengfeng could finish speaking, three overwhelmingly powerful auras rapidly approached from ahead.

”Not good! Strong enemies!” Sun Liang’s eyes tightened, his heart violently trembling as he exclaimed in alarm and hurriedly scrambled into the car.

Whooo...

Stamping hard on the accelerator, Sun Liang drove the car off the road, plunging into the jungle.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Soon after Sun Liang and his companion left, three figures rushed from the direction of the road.

”This...” Upon seeing the corpses with their heads burst open on the ground, the faces of the three men darkened instantly, and the leader, an elderly man, spoke in a cold voice, ”The information was wrong. The guard with Lu Chengfeng isn’t the Earth-Grade Peak Chen Tao. Pursue them!”

The trio glanced at the tire tracks on the ground and turned to chase in the direction where Lu Chengfeng’s car had departed.

”Mr. Sun, who are those people? Are they my business rivals?” On the Bentley, Lu Chengfeng turned to look at Sun Liang, who was driving. This time, as he was going to Chixiao Sect, Lu Chengfeng hadn’t brought a driver.

As he drove, Sun Liang spoke in a low voice, ”No, they’re from Youming Hall, the ones who came to the Sect today to provoke us.”

”People from Youming Hall? Why do they want to capture me?” Lu Chengfeng’s face changed as he blurted in shock.

Sun Liang’s expression grew colder, a chilling light flashing in his eyes, ”The Martial Dao Conference is about to begin!”

”Martial Dao...”

Hearing this, Lu Chengfeng understood, a look of worry appearing on his face, ”Is Youming Hall planning to eliminate the Sect’s business forces before the Martial Dao Conference? If that’s the case, then the Zhuge Family...”

”You’re still worried about the Zhuge Family? You should first hope that we can escape!” Sun Liang said irritably, cutting off Lu Chengfeng’s words.

”This...” Lu Chengfeng was taken aback and looked at Sun Liang in surprise, ”The people chasing us are very powerful? More so than you, Mr. Sun?”

Sun Liang replied with a smile, ”Do you think that an Innate Grandmaster is the pinnacle for a martial artist, that someone at the Semi Innate Peak like myself is already a rare expert among martial artists?”

”Isn’t that the case?” Lu Chengfeng asked with a puzzled look.

Although the Lu Family had previously been a Martial Arts Family, it had suffered a massacre eighty years ago. In that carnage, all the martial artists of the Lu Family perished. The Chixiao Sect issued a strict decree forbidding the Lu Family from practicing martial arts, therefore, by the time it reached Lu Chengfeng’s generation, the Lu Family no longer had anyone who truly understood the Martial Dao World!

”No, there are even stronger realms above the Innate level, and those chasing us include one Innate Grandmaster and two Semi Innates. I’m no match!” Sun Liang briefly explained.

Lu Chengfeng’s complexion changed as a look of panic appeared in his eyes.

”Stop for this old man!”

Suddenly, a loud shout came from behind the car.

Sun Liang’s face immediately contorted, and he quickly shifted gears to accelerate.

Whoosh!

A gale wind struck, and a severed large tree suddenly appeared in front of the Bentley’s hood.

Screech!

The piercing sound of brakes rang out as Sun Liang swiftly pressed the brake pedal to the floor. If he hit that tree, he would be fine, but Lu Chengfeng would be unfortunate, and the car too would be wrecked. In such a case, escaping on foot with Lu Chengfeng would be even less possible.

Crack!

Before the car came to a complete stop, Sun Liang flung open the door and bolted out, simultaneously yelling, ”Mr. Lu, run!”

Without Sun Liang’s driving, the car swayed from side to side, startling Lu Chengfeng who quickly lunged to the driver’s seat and grabbed the steering wheel, turning to look behind.

After disembarking, Sun Liang directly faced the three assailants, his Internal Qi Circulation pushed to the utmost, a decisive look flashing in his eyes.

His mission was to serve as Lu Chengfeng’s bodyguard if he had to ensure Lu Chengfeng’s safety and prevent him from coming to harm. He couldn’t afford to lose this face, nor could his Master, the Sect, or Mr. Jiang.

If the enemies wanted to harm Lu Chengfeng, they would have to step over his corpse!

”I’ll hold him off, you go catch that Lu Chengfeng!” shouted the elderly man leading the trio.

”Yes!” The two middle-aged men behind the elder responded and turned to rush towards the Bentley.

”Stay right there!” Sun Liang bellowed, swinging his palms in a flurry, sending a sky full of palm shadows hurtling down upon the three men.

The two middle-aged men’s faces changed as they dared not withstand Sun Liang’s palm force directly and quickly retreated a few steps.

Bang bang bang!

A series of muffled sounds erupted as the elder exchanged several blows with Sun Liang, retreating three steps, while Sun Liang himself took five steps back, with a trickle of fresh blood spilling from the corner of his mouth.

Glancing at the Bentley, Sun Liang saw Lu Chengfeng watching him through the rear car window and, infuriated, roared, ”Mr. Lu, don’t worry about me, get going! Hurry to the sect and report!”

Lu Chengfeng gritted his teeth, settled back into his seat, shifted gears, stepped on the gas, and with a fierce twist of the steering wheel, the car spun in place and dashed towards the forest.

He knew staying would only be a burden; he had thought about picking up Sun Liang and leaving together, but now it seemed impossible!

”You two, chase after him!” The elder growled and charged at Sun Liang.

Sun Liang shifted his form, still intent on stopping the three men.

Whoom!

The pressure of an Innate Grandmaster suddenly bore down on Sun Liang; finding it inescapable, he could only focus fully on countering the elder, leaving him no time to concern himself with the other two Semi Innates.

At the same time, he prayed in his heart that Lu Chengfeng would escape this calamity!

...

On the highway outside the forest, a Knight XV and a Porsche Cayenne sped along.

Jiang Chen and his companions had rushed here from the ancient capital, and it was nearing noon as they arrived at West Suburb of S Province.

”Mr. Lu, hurry up!”

A faint cry came from the dense forest, and Jiang Chen, who had been dozing in the back seat, suddenly opened his eyes and called out, ”Stop the car!”

Screech! Screech!

The Knight XV came to a halt, followed by the Cayenne behind it.

Tang Wanru, who was sitting in the passenger seat, looked at Jiang Chen puzzled and asked, ”Master, what’s happened?”

Jiang Chen frowned slightly and gestured for Tang Wanru to be quiet, straining his ears to listen.

”Mr. Lu, don’t worry about me, get going! Hurry to the sect and report!”

Whir whir!

The faint shout and the sound of a car engine starting came through, and contemplation flashed across Jiang Chen’s eyes. This voice sounded familiar... Mr. Lu... the sect...

Suddenly, a realization struck Jiang Chen; it was Sun Liang!

The disciple of the Second Elder of the Chixiao Sect, the Semi Innate Grandmaster sent to protect Lu Chengfeng!

Then, that Mr. Lu must be Lu Chengfeng!

Jiang Chen’s expression shifted, and he called out sharply, ”Go, save them!”

Click!

He opened the car door, grabbed his cane, and darted straight towards the forest.

Click! Click!

The eyes of Yan Hu and Tang Wanru changed, and they swiftly followed after him.

”Hey! Big brother...” from behind in the Cayenne, Lou Qiangqiang, who was in the driver’s seat, saw Jiang Chen’s car stop, opened the window to see what was happening, and suddenly saw Jiang Chen and the others rush out and immediately called out in surprise.

But having called out just three words, he had already lost sight of Jiang Chen and the others.

”Something might have happened, let’s go!”

Mo Tiancheng, sitting in the co-driver’s seat, spoke in a deep voice and rushed out of the car.

Recovering from his daze, Lou Qiangqiang hurriedly followed, and the two men quickly pursued Jiang Chen and his group.
