Chapter 101 Rescue Team Arrives at Qixin Building

Zheng Qian heard Tie Jian's roar, but he ignored it and ran towards the East District with He Zuowen on his back, shouting anxiously in his heart.

"Zhang Tiezhu, you must hold on!"

In the East District, Zhang Tiezhu retreated towards the West District under the cover of Feng Baqiang.

Three minutes earlier, tens of thousands of guards surrounded them. The deputy commander in charge didn't give Zhang Tiezhu a chance to speak and launched an attack on the caravan with his broadsword.

Zhang Tiezhu was only at the peak of the Skin Refining Realm. He was defeated after only a few rounds under the deputy commander's blade. Feng Baqiang joined the battle and they barely managed to withstand the deputy commander's attacks.

In just three minutes, the Chamber of Commerce's experts collapsed. Zhang Tiezhu was seriously injured by a kick from the deputy commander and was carried back by several Chamber of Commerce experts.

Behind them, Feng Baqiang fought desperately to buy time for Zhang Tiezhu to retreat.

"A mere early-stage Blood Refining Realm cultivator dares to act so arrogantly, he's courting death." The deputy commander sneered repeatedly. He was a late-stage Blood Refining Realm expert, not to mention he was wearing armor. Beating Feng Baqiang was as easy as beating a primary school student.

"Chairman, let's go!" Feng Baqiang was very honest; he only knew how to protect Zhang Tiezhu, disregarding his own safety and staying behind to cover the retreat.

"None of you will escape." The deputy commander swung his broadsword down, and Feng Baqiang raised his gun to block, but was sent flying by the blow.

The deputy commander was swift; before Feng Baqiang could counterattack, he plunged a knife into his heart.

Feng Baqiang, this honest and simple-minded thug, is dead.

"Fool." Zhang Tiezhu felt as if his heart was being torn apart, and rushed towards Feng Baqiang without regard for anything else.

puff……

He had only taken two steps when a battalion commander shot him in the chest, causing him to spit out blood and lose consciousness.

"Drop your weapons, all of you! Those who resist will die!" The deputy commander shouted, and the merchants' experts obediently dropped their weapons.

They were already surrounded by the guards, and resistance would only lead to their deaths. Moreover, the guild leader had already fainted, so they couldn't rescue him. There was no point in continuing to fight.

Fortunately, Zhang Tiezhu had arranged for several experts to break through and send a message at the start of the battle. These experts successfully escaped and became their hope for rescue.

The guards rushed out and captured Zhang Tiezhu and the remaining experts from the Chamber of Commerce. Before the East District could receive reinforcements from the North District, the battle ended in defeat.

In the southern district, Xu Shicai was covered in blood; they had also been attacked by the guards.

"Duo'er, Qixin Tower is just three streets away. Break through and go to Qixin Tower to find Lord Jia for support. He is the Fourth Prince's confidant and will definitely find a way to support us. Once you get to Qixin Tower, don't come out. It's safer to stay inside. You must not get caught."

With tears welling up in her eyes, Yun Duo looked at Xu Shicai with deep affection, "I won't leave. If we're going to die, we'll die together."

"Don't talk nonsense. The guards will only arrest us, they won't really kill us. They still have to consider the Fourth Prince's reputation. It's too dangerous for you to go to jail. Go quickly."

Xu Shicai is very clever. They are all high-ranking members of the Chamber of Commerce. As long as they do not resist, the guards will not kill them, but they will make them suffer a fate worse than death. In the end, the Fourth Prince will rescue them, and they will definitely suffer greatly.

Yun Duo'er is a beautiful woman; if she were to be imprisoned, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Since the South District was attacked by the guards, the caravans in the North and East Districts would inevitably be attacked as well. Therefore, Xu Shicai did not send Yun Duo'er to find Zheng Qian, but instead went to Qixin Tower to ask for reinforcements.

Xu Shicai said to a man dressed in black and wearing a mask, "Brother Xiao, I would be extremely grateful if you could help Duo'er break through the encirclement."

"Don't worry, you hold them off, I'll go find reinforcements right away." The man in black was none other than Wu Yuxiao, a spy from the Shadow Guard. He tried to recruit Zheng Qian into the Shadow Guard, but Zheng Qian refused outright. He said he wanted to roam the world with his sword, and that official positions would only bring him shackles. He also asked Wu Yuxiao to protect the caravan today.

"Follow me, there's a secret passage here." After saying that, Wu Yuxiao took the lead and darted into the alley.

"Qin Xiu, let's go." Yun Duo'er glanced at Xu Shicai, called to her good friend Qin Xiu, and followed Wu Yuxiao into the alley.

The three reappeared several streets away. The Shadow Guards knew many secrets of Rock City, including underground passages.

Outside Qixin Building, Wu Yuxiao frowned. They could hear shouts of killing from here, but Qixin Building was unusually quiet.

Today, the entire city of Yancheng knows about the Chamber of Commerce exhibition. Qixinlou, as the Fourth Prince's power, actually did nothing about the guards' attack on the Chamber of Commerce, which made Wu Yuxiao very vigilant.

“I’m going in to find reinforcements. You all wait downstairs. If I don’t come out in a minute, you run to find Zheng Qian and ask for his help.”

"No, I'll go with you. Qin Xiu, you wait downstairs. If Lord Wu and I don't come out in a minute, then you run to find the chairman." Yun Duo'er was very worried about Xu Shicai's safety, and she had to go and get reinforcements herself to feel at ease.

Qin Xiu nodded and hid in the shadows at the street corner, watching Wu Yuxiao and Yun Duo'er walk towards Qixin Building.

"No unauthorized personnel are allowed to enter." The guard at the door remained arrogant, looking at Wu Yuxiao and Yun Duo'er with disdain.

Wu Yuxiao took out his detective's waist token, startling the guard, who quickly bowed.

"Your Excellency, I will..."

"No need, I'll go straight in to find Jia Shi." Wu Yuxiao led Yun Duo'er into the Qixin Building.

Inside Qixin Building, Jia Shi sat upright in the main hall, flanked by martial arts masters, each brimming with vigor and murderous intent.

"Lord Jia, the Shengshi Huazhang Merchant Guild has been attacked by the guards. We request your assistance." Wu Yuxiao, shrouded in black robes, spoke urgently, clearly worried about the safety of the caravan.

"Since when have Shadow Guard spies gotten involved in these kinds of fights? If you want to provide support, do you have the necessary Shadow Guard credentials?"

Jia Shi was not as oblivious as the guards; he possessed a great deal of information. Wu Yuxiao's cuffs were embroidered with copper wire, a mark of the Shadow Guard's secret agents.

Procedures? I have your father's procedures.

Wu Yuxiao's participation in the Chamber of Commerce exhibition was entirely a private favor. He was dressed as a spy to help solve a minor problem, but he didn't expect that the guards would come. They were also under the Emperor's command, and his spy rank was similar to that of a battalion commander, so he didn't reveal his identity during the battle because it was useless.

"The Fourth Prince has also invested in the Chamber of Commerce. Now that the Chamber is in trouble, we hope Lord Jia can provide assistance." Wu Yuxiao lowered his stance. He could only come here to seek help. The Shadow Guards had a strict system and would not help him.

"What a joke! Why should I provide support? I'm not the president of the Chamber of Commerce. It's none of my business if the Chamber of Commerce is wiped out." Jia Shi's eyes were cold. Zheng Qian had only been in Yan City for a few days when he destroyed the Xinyi Gang and established a Chamber of Commerce, stealing all the limelight. The Fourth Prince's words were always about Zheng Qian, which made him feel threatened.

He secretly exerted his influence during the deployment of the guards. He was the one who leaked the information about Zheng Qian in the North City caravan. Otherwise, how could Commander Tie have directly attacked the North City?

Given the opportunity, he would not hesitate to destroy the Shengshi Huazhang Chamber of Commerce, so that he could control all the forces outside the Fourth Prince's palace.

"Hmph, coward! We're all risking our lives for the Fourth Prince, and you're cowering here, afraid of dying. What a disgrace! Lord Wu, let's not beg him anymore, let's go." Yun Duo'er knew Jia Shi wouldn't send troops, so she called to Wu Yuxiao and turned to leave. Now, the only option was to find Zheng Qian.

"Do you think you can just come and go as you please at Qixin Tower?" Jia Shi shouted at the group of experts with icy eyes.

"Kill them."

"Run!" Wu Yuxiao shoved Yun Duo'er aside, drew his sword with a clang, and slashed at the onrushing martial arts expert.

Among these martial arts figures were experts in the late stage of the Blood Refining Realm. Wu Yuxiao and Yun Duo'er were having a very difficult time fighting, and it was only a matter of time before Wu Yuxiao was defeated.

"You go first, go find reinforcements quickly, I'll hold them off." Yun Duo'er knew she couldn't get help herself, so she could only place her hopes on Wu Yuxiao.

"I am a Shadow Guard spy. Anyone who dares to attack me is guilty of a capital offense!" Wu Yuxiao roared, and the martial arts masters were all frightened, stopping their attacks and looking at Jia Shi.

The Shadow Guards are directly under the Emperor and wield immense power. They are like the shadow of Wuyan Kingdom, specializing in handling its thorny and shady affairs. Who wouldn't be afraid of them?

"Killing him and letting him escape is the biggest danger. I'll take the blame. Kill him."

Jia Shi roared back, "Wu Yuxiao is a spy, and a spy for the Fourth Prince's faction. If he escapes, he won't be able to explain to the Fourth Prince. The only solution is to kill him and smear him."

However, after shouting back and forth, Wu Yuxiao and Yun Duo'er had arrived at the window and were preparing to break it open.

Just then, a curved blade flew over, blocking their path and forcing them to stop.

Faced with the surrounding martial arts masters, Yun Duo'er pushed Wu Yuxiao out of the window, saying, "Go quickly, don't worry about me."

Wu Yuxiao gritted his teeth and leaped away, shouting at Qin Xiu, "Go find Zheng Qian!"

Qin Xiu hid at the street corner, staring intently at the window, hoping that Yun Duo'er would jump out.

Inside Qixin Building, Yun Duo'er unleashed her peak Bone Refining Realm combat power, hurling dozens of flying needles from her hand. When she tried to throw the needles again, she discovered that she had run out of needles.

Dozens of martial arts masters surrounded her and quickly injured her, rendering her unable to fight.

Swish.

Jia Shi ripped open Yun Duo'er's clothes, and Yun Duo'er's fair skin almost blinded him.

"Let me tell you, I've had my eye on you for a long time. You actually came to my door today and dared to call me a coward. Now I'll let you taste my hard balls." Jia Shi actually put Yun Duo'er on the window and started working hard.

"No, please, please don't!" Yun Duo'er pleaded and cried pitifully, but to no avail; it only excited Jia Shi more.

"Let's go, going back will only be suicide. We must get reinforcements as soon as possible." Wu Yuxiao ran to Qin Xiu's side, grabbed her, and ran.

Qin Xiu burst into tears instantly, cursing with resentment.

"Jia Shi, you will die a horrible death."
