My Pretty Campus Queen-Chapter 826 - 824: Four More Arrive

I thought no one would intercept me next, and I could smoothly go back to find something to eat, but things didn’t go as planned.

When Chen Tianlong was not far from the foot of the mountain, four people suddenly appeared in front of him. One was tall and imposing, crossing his arms in front of his chest, glaring ahead as if he was about to devour Chen Tianlong.

Chen Tianlong felt exasperated; he had finally reached the foot of the mountain, and yet another group showed up. He really wanted to shout: "Are you guys done yet? Can you come at me all at once, instead of in groups?"

"Kid, it seems you’ve got some skills— even Captain Yang couldn’t handle you." He Shang had been waiting for a long time. He originally thought Yang Pei could take care of Chen Tianlong, but he hadn’t expected this guy to be so powerful.

It seems that bringing a gun today was indeed foresight.

He Shang, a Profound Dao level one, didn’t have any killer moves, but his marksmanship was superb. He was adept at combining shooting with his own strength.

Chen Tianlong didn’t speak, as he had already noticed the unfriendly intent of the newcomers. 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

This person wasn’t only formidable but was also armed. The three minions around him didn’t pose much of a threat alone, but in combination with this Profound Dao level one expert, they became a problem.

If he battled with this man, those three would surely seize the opportunity to interfere significantly.

Thus, Chen Tianlong’s first reaction was to eliminate those three underlings.

"Brother, I have no grievances with you, nor do I know why you’re relentlessly pursuing me. I just hope you let me die knowing why." Chen Tianlong slowly approached, thinking that a fight was inevitable, but he didn’t want to inexplicably incur hatred.

The strength of the Black Alliance was something Chen Tianlong had heard of long before. If these people were Black Alliance’s higher-ups, offending one after another would make his future path difficult.

"No grievances? Then may I ask you, did you kill Mr. Songmu?" He Shang said coldly.

"Hiss..."

Hearing this, Chen Tianlong took a sharp breath. Although he didn’t personally kill Songmu, he had injured him before his senior brother finished him off. Technically, it could be counted as his doing, and he would never betray his senior brother.

"Kind of; he had information I wanted. I tried to get it, but he resisted..."

"Alright, enough of that. Don’t give me any of those excuses. Songmu was my brother. Do you think we have a grudge now or not?" He Shang cut off Chen Tianlong’s words, his expression growing colder.

Suddenly, He Shang waved his hand, and three henchmen charged from three different directions.

Chen Tianlong was prepared. He had three small knives on him, but he couldn’t afford to waste them all. With a flip of his right hand, a dagger appeared, which he threw without hesitation, directly hitting one henchman’s chest.

He didn’t plan to kill, just incapacitate them from fighting.

Under Chen Tianlong’s swift attacks, the man fell to the ground, while the other two were momentarily stunned, then leaped up and swung their fists furiously at Chen Tianlong.

Faced with two Yellow Dao level seven experts and their fierce onslaught, Chen Tianlong didn’t dare underestimate it. He quickly unleashed both fists. Lacking the power of Martial Technique, his fists merely collided with theirs, creating a considerable impact without causing major harm.

After sustaining such a strong attack, the two hesitated, nodded to each other, and suddenly pulled out something black from their pockets.

Chen Tianlong glanced— it wasn’t a gun but a cord.

Crap!

These guys wanted to use the cord to capture him?

Chen Tianlong found it somewhat laughable, but the next moment, he was surprised.

The two flipped their hands, revealing guns attached to the ends of the cords. These were the rumored cord guns. As an assassin, Chen Tianlong was well aware of such devices.

"Damn it!"

Chen Tianlong couldn’t help but curse. These people were well-prepared. Though he was quick, facing guns was still slightly dangerous. If hit by the cord guns, he would be captured, and the Profound Dao level one expert would make his life even harder.

Chen Tianlong thought it over and lunged forward. He knew these cord guns were less effective at close range, making it difficult to hit him. By staying close and moving around them, even with guns, they’d be ineffective.

The two were about to aim at Chen Tianlong when he rushed at them so fast they couldn’t aim properly before he was upon them.

Forced by the situation, Chen Tianlong stood in a challenging spot, making it hard to fire without hitting their companions.

As they hesitated, Chen Tianlong flipped another dagger with his right hand— his second one. Simple intention: since they intended to bind him with ropes, he would let them experience being bound.

Seeing Chen Tianlong brandishing his blade, the opposing henchman was startled and, trembling, pulled the trigger. The sharp projectile of the cord gun shot at Chen Tianlong.

Swish!

Chen Tianlong mustered all his strength and dodged with a Ghost Shadow Flash.

"Ow!"

Immediately, behind Chen Tianlong came a gut-wrenching scream, undoubtedly from the other comrade. The sharp projectile of the cord gun had hit his right arm, locking it in place.

Chen Tianlong smirked and charged toward the shooter.

At that moment, the one who got shot thought Chen Tianlong was attacking his teammate, and in panic, he fired a shot at him. But Chen Tianlong, running while closing his eyes, felt a thud in his chest, signaling danger, and he dodged just in time.

That shot did it—no more playing around.

The projectile struck a critical area: right on the man’s forehead. Chen Tianlong heard a groan, and he fell with a thud, dead.

"Damn!"

He Shang was stunned; in less than a minute, his three henchmen were taken down, with two killing each other—an utter disgrace.

"Alright, brother, I don’t care who you are in the Black Alliance, but I must tell you, as a Huaxia national, and with Songmu holding a list crucial to Huaxia’s national security, killing him was my duty," Chen Tianlong defended.

"Hmph, so killing you is my duty, then," He Shang sneered coldly, showing an evil grin.

He didn’t immediately pull out his gun because he believed in his own strength. Chen Tianlong might have surpassed his level, but he couldn’t be careless. He believed Chen Tianlong easily dealt with his men, so could he.

That reasoning led He Shang to conclude that no matter how formidable Chen Tianlong was, he was at best a Profound Dao level one; otherwise, he wouldn’t have been on the run from Yellow Dao level seven subordinates.

Having figured all this out, He Shang revealed his fist, as large as a sandbag, cracking his knuckles loudly to display his immense strength.
