The Dragon Warrior Pair
DWP 36: Great General Huan Chen
After Ye Xiaoya explained her plan to Shen An. Both are welcome to rest in the room.
One of the warriors guarding the Shen Family came to the Capital of Huaran to deliver a letter to Great General Huan Chen.
I don't feel like time is passing. Day by day change. Today Ye Xiaoya and Jing Yang had been staying inside the luxurious mansion of the Shen Family residence for four days.
In addition to filling the free time by walking to accompany Ye Xiaoya shopping. Jing Yang also always followed Ye Xiaoya to enjoy the food in Shendong City. They were both waiting for the arrival of Great General Huan Chen.
It took about four days, General Huan Chen arrived at Shendong City. Now inside the special room, it was seen that Ye Xiaoya, Shen An and Great General Huan Chen were discussing.
General Huan Chen explained to Shen An about Prince Jiang Feng who was very ambitious and intended to become Emperor Jiang. Prince Jiang Feng sent envoys from the black-flow sect to come to the Huan Family, but General Huan Chen's parents rejected Prince Jiang Feng's request outright.
The day after Second Princess Jiang Nian's turn came to the Huan Family and intended to invite the Huan Royal Family to support the unification efforts of the Jiang Empire and Shi Empire. However, the old General Huan Chen refused. Feeling that the peace treaty with the Shi Empire had not reached a clear point, even though the crown prince of the Shi Empire and the Second Princess of the Jiang Empire had married.
After hearing that discussion, Jing Yang only realized that the problems in the Jiang Empire were beyond his reach if he remained in the comfort zone.
“Great General Huan, actually we from the Shen Family have also been visited by Prince Jiang Feng and Second Princess, Jiang Nian.” Shen An smiled bitterly due to the many threats coming from the black flow sect the past few weeks.
Although Shendong City looked peaceful, dozens of Shen Family guards had been killed while escorting Shen An out of the city. Shen An's face smiled bitterly, as he exposed the torn clothes to Great General Huan Chen, Ye Xiaoya and Jing Yang.
“I got this crest in one of the dead swordsmen..” Shen An showed a green spider emblem.
The face of the Great General Huan Chen was suddenly serious, “This emblem is the Green Profit Organization. A group of hitmen who are no less true to the Sin Water Organization.”.
Great General Huan Chen also explained the real matter to Shen An. Sooner or later, the Jiang Empire would be engulfed in chaos as Prince Jiang Feng was very ambitious to become Emperor Jiang, whereas the Second Princess Master, Jiang Nian, wanted to unite the Jiang Empire and the Shi Empire.
“In my opinion, the Second Princess is only used.." said Ye Xiaoya, while putting her hands together.
“Yes, I think so too. However, His Highness Jiang En over the past seven years was not at his best, even his wife had died for no apparent reason for wanting to find the child of the Third Princess.”.
Great General Huan Chen retorted while staring at Ye Xiaoya and the old Jing Yang. He could sense that Ye Xiaoya and Jing Yang's abilities signified that the two were not random people. Even for him, Ye Xiaoya's figure was a swordsman who was stronger than he had anticipated. However Jing Yang also caught his attention, as the twelve-year-old young man had an aura like thousands of Beast and Demon Beasts gripping his aura.
Great General Huan Chen only hoped that Emperor Jiang En would be able to reign even longer, because the character of his two surviving children was very disliked. Both of them have great ambitions, in their heads there is only power even though unknowingly only used.
Hearing the story, Ye Xiaoya smiled grinningly, “Mayor Shen, me and my disciple will be your bodyguards. While Mr. Huan and his troops will follow the fastest route to Xuedong City.”.
Ye Xiaoya wanted Great General Huan Chen and his troops to leave for Xuedong City first. Then Shen An would follow along with Jing Yang, of course Ye Xiaoya would also escort Shen directly.
“You just need to wait for us before you both enter Xuedong City. I'll take care of the swordsman who's after Mayor Shen.” Ye Xiaoya added.
The explanation of Ye Xiaoya's plan had many loopholes according to Great General Huan Chen. According to Great General Huan Chen, Ye Xiaoya looked very confident in his abilities.
“But, what does Miss Ye say is trustworthy?” Great General Huan Chen asked to be sure. The question was answered by Shen An quickly.
“I believe in Miss Ye's plan. Anyway we have to catch Chang Feng and his family.” Shen An looked unsettled at the thought of his family being locked up in Xuedong City.
Hearing Shen An's words made Great General Huan choose this big gamble. Then they packed up before leaving for Xuedong City.
Jing Yang followed Ye Xiaoya's appearance and walked following the slow-moving horse carriage towards Xuedong City.
While General Huan and his troops had already left first for Cunfei City, before they continued their journey to Xuedong City.
On the way out of Shendong City. Jing Yang felt that there were dozens of people who loved him. The existence of Ye Xiaoya and Jing Yang made the dozens of assassins from the Green Profit Organization not rashly take action. Usually the Shen Family employed dozens of warriors to escort him, but this time it was only two people and that naturally made them wary.
“Yang Merchant, you just protect yourself..” Right after Ye Xiaoya gave Jing Yang advice. A small poisonous knife shot out quickly from the direction of the forest.
Ye Xiaoya parried the small blade. It didn't take long for the dozens of Green Profit Organization's hit men to show themselves and attack Ye Xiaoya directly alongside Jing Yang.
The task that Prince Jiang Feng had given to the Green Spider Organization was only to intimidate the Shen Family by killing each of his guards. But this time their plan did not go perfectly as usual. Ye Xiaoya's strength exceeded that of the swordsman this group of assassins had ever encountered, even Jing Yang had a mysterious ability.
Jing Yang drew his sword from the Ring of Gods and began to flow his profound energy on his sword. In one breath, gravity slammed into the bodies of the five hitmen until they vomited blood because Jing Yang did not control his strength.
“Interesting, please feel free Yang Ferrer!” Ye Xiaoya shouted, while enjoying his aggressive swordplay. Each of his slashes took out a hitman with ease. His blade slashed through the chest of the assassin deeply.
Even Shen An who was looking at him with the horse coachman and his service shuddered in horror at Ye Xiaoya's brutality.
Jing Yang still did not kill the assassin he had crippled. The hitman's hands and feet were broken by the gravitational attack from his sword.
Ye Xiaoya smiled faintly seeing Jing Yang still hesitate to take action. For Ye Xiaoya all matters would be sooner resolved if Jing Yang had rounded his resolve. Saving Xue Bingyue or Xue Qinghua would be faster if Jing Yang threw away the doubt in his heart.
“Let me finish him..” Ye Xiaoya did not forgive and slashed the assassin that Jing Yang had crippled in one slash.
Jing Yang was still hesitant to kill. According to Ye Xiaoya, Jing Yang's nature would be even more terrifying the moment his true identity appeared. Jing Yang was too kind and too harboring his emotions.
Ye Xiaoya did not bury the corpses of the assassins from the Green Spider Organization but rather he burned them. After that he resumed his journey to escort Shen An to Xuedong City.
Of the dozens of hitmen, Ye Xiaoya let one assassin escape. He had his own reasons for wanting to lure a prey larger than the assassin he had killed.
Ye Xiaoya only wished for a warrior who was on the same level as him in the Jiang Empire.
There were no meaningful obstacles after Jing Yang and Ye Xiaoya dealt with the Green Profit Organization's hit men.
On the way to Xuedong City. They took seven days. Even Shen An did not stay overnight in Cunfei City and preferred to continue the journey.
Only the Beast became an obstacle, yet Jing Yang was able to deal with it easily even without Ye Xiaoya's help.
Until finally on a clear morning, on a hill where the Great General Huan Chen and his troops stayed and set up a tent. Finally Shen An's group joined. The silhouette of Xuedong City was already visible from the hill.
Before proceeding towards the imminent Xuedong City, Ye Xiaoya again explained his plan to the Great General Huan Chen and Shen An. A plan that would most likely make Xuedong City a battleground.
Jing Yang listened to the Black Spirit's advice not to act half-and-half. Indeed Ye Xiaoya's actions were correct, it was better to kill the villain than to let him. But Jing Yang's heart still had great doubts. His hands were too afraid to kill, he still did not believe in his own words.
“I just don't want you to regret it. But you need experience in order to believe in yourself. If you stay like this, people who are precious to you will disappear again, even innocent people will be affected.” The Black Spirit flew higher after advising Jing Yang.
