Eps. 80 — Robber Headquarters
Jian Chen was not the only one who wanted to help Jian Ya but rather the young man as well.
“I want to avenge my village on the robber, anyways you need me to show you the way of the robber's headquarters.”
Jian Chen's eyebrows shot up, the attitude of the youth who had previously cried while pleading was now looking even more cheerful even somewhat pleased.
Jian Ya thought for a while before agreeing to it but he said that he had no intention of fighting the robber if the conditions were possible. Jian Ya's goal was only one, saving the kidnapped villagers.
Finally the three set off on foot while the golden eagle demon was left in this village. According to Jian Ya, his pet would be safe considering that the village was very remote from other villages.
Tracing the forest path, the young man led Jian Chen's entourage.
“It looks like uncle is very familiar with this road?” Jian Chen asked in surprise.
“I often go to this road while hunting, coincidentally the same road also leads to the headquarters of the robber.”
According to the young man, when his villagers were robbed and kidnapped he secretly followed where they went, after knowing the location of his headquarters, the young man remembered every road he had ever stepped on.
An hour later, the three finally arrived at the robber's headquarters.
The headquarters of the robbers are in a large gaping cave, they build a headquarters that blends with the cave so that it is not visible when viewed from above the sky.
Jian Ya ordered Jian Chen and the young man to move about while approaching the headquarters.
Jian Ya had originally wanted to ascertain the strength of the pirates by moving in the bushes but when the distance was very close, suddenly the young man who was with him whistled loudly.
“What are you doing?!”
Jian Ya stared intently at the young man she was helping, but when her gaze fell on the young man's hand, Jian Ya's eyes widened.
The young man had already attached a knife to Jian Chen's neck, yet Jian Ya had no time to react around him appeared the robbers who had surrounded him. The young man smiled broadly at Jian Ya.
“If you don't want anything with this kid, don't fight!” the young man threatened Jian Ya who was about to drain his inner strength.
Jian Ya bit her lips, actually she was at a loss of what to do for fear of Jian Chen doing anything. Although being able to fight them yet save Jian Chen was a different matter.
“You've won, don't hurt him!” Jian Ya raised both of his hands.
Jian Ya inexhaustibly thought that the young man he helped turned out to be cooperating with the robber.
“Waw, I didn't expect you to get a girl this pretty?” one of the robbers observed Jian Ya's face while licking her lips.
“Do not underestimate it! His strength is even higher than our captain though, I can see him extinguishing the village we attacked earlier in a few minutes.”
The robber retreated away from Jian Ya after knowing the beautiful girl was stronger than him.
Jian Ya's hand was then tied up using an iron chain by the robber so as not to fight back.
“I've given up, release the young man in your arms now!”
If the young man broke his promise then Jian Ya could still escape this chain and put up a fight but the robbers were not as innocent as they seemed. Suddenly one of them hit the nape of Jian Ya's neck which immediately rendered her unconscious.
“You think we're stupid?” The young man laughed mockingly at seeing Jian Ya faint. “I know by your power now, the chain is not enough to hold you.”
The other robbers laughed. “So, do we have to mess around now with this girl, I can't wait to taste her.”
“Hey, let's wait for the captain to come. What captain do you want to kill?!” said another man glaring.
“Yahh end she is very beautiful, see her skin is so white without any stains.” said the robber shrugged.
The young man holding Jian Chen hostage did not heed the words of his comrade, his attention was fixed on Jian Chen who looked calm even though a knife had been drawn around his neck.
***
Jian Ya's breath was restrained when she found out that she was in prison seeing iron bars in front of her, but what surprised her was the presence of people in the prison.
Not only himself in prison but there are dozens of people in it, jostling with equally tied hands.
Jian Ya then remembered that he fainted when he was about to go to the robber headquarters, someone he wanted to save turned out to be a traitor as well as a member of the robber.
Jian Ya wanted to release the iron chain in her hand but could not, she then realized there was an iron necklace around her neck.
The iron necklace was not an ordinary iron necklace but a magic tool where the person wearing it could not use the inner power.
“Chairman, are you awake?”
The voice of someone he knew made Jian Ya turn to the source of the voice, Jian Chen was sitting in a position not far from him.
“Chen’er, are you okay? Where are we now?”
“We are in the middle of the robber's headquarters earlier, after the Chief fainted we brought the resistance of the captives. It seems that despite the betrayal, the young man did not lie that the robbers kidnapped the villagers.”
Jian Ya began to understand the circumstances of the situation, now the most important thing was that he had to try to escape this prison and save everyone.
Jian Ya was thinking of making a plan when suddenly Jian Chen got up from his seat and broke off the chain erta necklace on his neck.
“Chen’er how..”.
“Our two release the chain in your hand first, after this we save the prisoner in another prison.”
Using the power within Jian Chen could break the chain like a thread. Seeing that one of them could be free, the other prisoners intended to ask Jian Chen for help.
“I will help you as long as you are silent.” Jian Chen's golden eyes shine in the darkness, making the one who looks at him instantly obey and nod.
Then Jian Ya and Jian Chen released one by one the chains from his one cell prisoner. After all Jian Chen then melted the lock of the bars with the light element.
Jian Chen ordered the freed prisoners to rescue the prisoners in another cell, telling no one to speak.
When the release took place, two guards entered the detention room and were shocked to see that many of the prisoners had been freed.
“Hei what you guys sell~”
Jian Chen moved quickly before he spoke loudly, with his light element he moved like a teleport when suddenly there was near his opponent.
Jian Chen used the science of punches and kicks that overwhelmed one of the guards to receive his attack. It didn't take long until one of the attacks went down the guard's throat, causing him to breathe hard and eventually die.
One other guard took out his sword hurriedly but Jian Chen changed his attack pattern.
“Anguer's Flap Dance!”
Jian Chen's attack suddenly turned into silence like the flapping of an owl as it flew, every time he swung a kick or punch could not make the slightest sound, as if his body was not rubbing against the air.
Jian Chen's movements were also complicated and unpredictable to his enemy, one of the kicks hitting his opponent's hand made the sword in his grasp come off, the other kick was swung and this time repulsed the guard.
Jian Chen caught the detached sword, before the guard shouted for help Jian Chen had already slashed his neck. The guard did not expect him to die at the hands of a teenage boy.
All who saw the cold breathing including Jian Ya, the girl was so stunned to see Jian Chen's empty-handed ability regardless of his sadistic actions.
Jian Chen smiled faintly, “Chairman, please make sure they come out safely. I'll be out to make sure no guards are here.”
Before Jian Ya opened his voice Jian Chen was already out behind the door, running to finish off the other robbers present.
Jian Chen would not let a single robber live in this cave.
