Legend of the Heavenly Fruit
Eps. 237 — Battle of Chu Clan
Not long after the sound of the bell rang, Yin Gubei saw the warriors of the Chu clan begin to emerge from their hiding places.
The warriors of the Chu clan hid underground and when they appeared, the forces of the criminal organization were already within their siege.
Yin Gubei clucked in annoyance, he now understood the strategy that the Chu clan used, they deliberately emptied the houses of the residents so that his troops were lured into the clan like this.
Now that the organization army was in the midst of the Chu clan warriors surrounding his army, this situation was clearly detrimental to Yin Gubei's side.
Yin Gubei could see that the Chu clan's army was slightly larger than the number of the organization's troops it was carrying, moreover they had their own strategies in this battle.
"I thought the old man would join in this attack but it seemed that my worries were unnecessary..."
Yin Gubei narrowed his eyes at the woman who spoke that seemed to be leading this army, Yin Gubei could feel that she had high strength.
"I can guess you are Chu Guyu, the leader of this clan right?"
Chu Guyu gave a cold snort. "You're not from the Moon Empire, I've never heard of a warrior like you here."
In response to this Yin Gubei laughed. "You're right, I'm not very famous here but in my place, almost everyone has known him, my name is Yin Gubei the head hunter."
"I'm not interested in knowing you or caring, you're attacking my clan then there's no way for you to go home."
Chu Guyu did not intend to speak any further, he immediately gave the other a sign to immediately attack while Yin Gubei also gave a similar mark.
The Chu clan warriors and the criminal alliance forces soon met, a huge battle ensued and the two sides exchanged attacks.
The Chu clan warriors were clearly more seeded as their position surrounded the opposing forces, the Chu clan warriors who had a lot of preparations could quickly suppress the forces of the criminal organization in a short period of time.
Chu Guyu did not stay silent, he immediately went forward and against Yin Gubei, the woman realized only she could fight the man.
Yin Gubei drew his weapon in the form of a knife, he then signaled the other three light warriors to help fight with the woman.
In a short period of time, Chu Guyu exchanged attacks with his four opponents. Chu Guyu might have a chance to defeat Yin Gubei but it was different if his opponent assisted the three light realm warriors.
Chu Guyu only gave a fierce fight at the start of the fight before his position changed in the defensive position.
"I heard you are a genius swordsman in this empire, your abilities are weaker than I thought." Yin Gubei smiled sinisterly seeing Chu Guyu only focusing on dodging.
"I don't accept the opinion of someone who shamelessly gangsters a woman alone."
Yin Gubei let out a cold snort, not replying but instead continuing to launch his blade attacks while the other three light realm warriors helped to suppress Chu Guyu.
Chu Guyu tried to perhaps dodge, even though she looked calm, she actually had her own worries.
In the multiple exchange of attacks between him and his four opponents, Chu Guyu would not be able to defeat the four of them much less kill him. Chu Guyu's only hope now was that the Chu clan warriors immediately suppressed the organization's army.
From the very beginning Chu Guyu did not have the intention to defeat Yin Gubei and the three light realm warriors, he had only exchanged attacks with them to buy time.
"You may be waiting for your clan's army to defeat the one I brought with you but the truth is the situation isn't what you expected..." As if it could read Chu Guyu's mind, Yin Gubei gave a statement.
"I've lived for over a hundred years, your strategy wasn't the first time I'd seen it." Yin Gubei smiled here and then shot fireworks into the sky. "You'll understand it soon."
Chu Guyu jumped far enough to separate the distance from his opponent before turning to the fireworks.
Chu Guyu's premonition worsened, he was sure Yin Gubei had other plans against those fireworks. Sure enough, not long after those fireworks exploded, additional troops from the organization side suddenly entered the territory of the Chu clan.
"You!"
Chu Guyu put on a serious face, he did not expect the organization troops to have an army that was even larger in number than the troops they were encircling.
"We'll see whose side will be suppressed first!" Yin Gubei smiled mockingly.
Chu Guyu clenched his hands hard, if Yin Gubei had an additional army like this he might use a different strategy to defeat his opponent's forces.
In a short period of time, the newly arrived organization army immediately suppressed the Chu clan warriors.
Originally the Chu clan warriors were in a favorable situation but when the second wave of the organization army appeared, quickly their situation turned around.
Chu Guyu bit his lips, he could see his troops becoming overwhelmed in the face of the growing number of organization troops.
Chu Guyu wanted to go towards them and help his troops but Yin Gubei along with the other 3 Light Realm warriors did not let that happen. They continued to concern Chu Guyu and inflict injuries on the woman.

"Isn't this voice..."
Zhou Yuan frowned when he heard a battle-like boisterous sound as the two began to get close to where the Chu clan was. Zhou Yuan and Xi Jinxue had already traveled for days and were about to arrive at the clan.
"Brother Yuan, did this voice come from the Chu clan?" Xi Jinxue asked beside him, suddenly the girl's feelings became alarmed.
"I'm not sure but it seems like it is Miss Xi, we better take a closer look at it in order to see the situation happening."
Zhou Yuan and Xi Jinxue sped up their steps, it did not take long for the two to arrive at the Chu clan and discover that there was a major event going on in the clan.
"It's..." Xi Jinxue's mouth opened wide, disbelieving the scene before his eyes.
Zhou Yuan narrowed his eyes, he was also shocked when he witnessed the current situation of the Chu clan. There was a foreign army in all-black uniforms that Zhou Yuan believed to be the invading force of the Chu clan.
"They are from a criminal organization..." Zhou Yuan quickly caught up to the situation, this was not the first time for him to deal with them in his second life.
Zhou Yuan could see the warriors of the Chu clan in a desperate position, the organizational forces clearly had many advantages one of which was their larger number of troops.
"Brother Yuan, what should we do?" Xi Jinxue felt anxious, clearly the situation in front of him was beyond his expectations.
Zhou Yuan did not reply but instead disappeared in the girl's sight and appeared behind her, Zhou Yuan put a finger touch on the girl's neck, the instant Xi Jinxue lost her consciousness and fell unconscious.
Zhou Yuan captured Xi Jinxue's body. "Sorry Miss Xi, you better stay here, the situation ahead is very dangerous for your abilities now."
