Chapter 119: Chapter 93: Encircled and Under Siege, No One's Getting Off Easy!【Subscribe Please】_2
Unexpectedly, after hearing his words, the man retorted with arrogant rhetoric, "That's right, I am this overbearing, what are you going to do about it?"
Without waiting for Zhou Chun to respond, the man's face contorted with rage as he shouted, "It seems you don't want to leave on your own accord, so let us brothers lend you a hand!"
As soon as the words were out, the three of them, as if having planned it beforehand, simultaneously commanded their magic artifacts to attack Zhou Chun.
These three men, one was at the eleventh level of Qi Refinement Realm, and the other two were at the tenth level of Qi Refinement Realm, all possessing considerable strength.
Luckily, Zhou Chun was also on his guard against them. As soon as they made a move, he immediately reacted.
First, he counteracted the attacks of two magic artifacts with the "Moon Blade Meteor Wheel," then he used the "Bright Dawn Pendant" to block another attack.
Then he swiftly slapped his storage pouch and summoned the "Golden Scale Shield" to protect himself, while also releasing the Rock Earth Turtle.
The appearance of the giant Rock Earth Turtle took the three people attacking Zhou Chun by surprise.
They quickly retreated to put some distance between themselves and Zhou Chun, casting protective spells for themselves.
And almost as soon as they had done this, sharp stone spikes burst forth from the ground beneath their feet, toppling them to the ground.
At the same time, the Rock Earth Turtle opened its huge mouth and a burst of yellow light transformed into a boulder, falling towards one of them.
"Who exactly are you? I have no grudges with you, so why attack me with intent to kill from the outset?"
Taking advantage of the moment when the opponents were shocked by the appearance of the Rock Earth Turtle and their offensive slowed, Zhou Chun finally had the opportunity to loudly express his doubts to the three men.
He was not a fool.
If the three had merely wanted to drive him away to take the mountain for themselves earlier, it could still be said that they were just being typically overbearing.
But starting a fight without reason, and with the intention to kill, was obviously a deliberate target on him.
What he couldn't understand was that he had neither seen these three men before nor had he offended any cultivators in Yunzhou.
Why were these three so keen on taking his life?
Yet, faced with his angry questioning, the three of them did not answer.
Instead, they quickly reassigned their battle tasks, with one of them distracting the Rock Earth Turtle, while the other two launched a fierce attack on Zhou Chun, aided by talismans.
But dealing with only two people, Zhou Chun was not overwhelmed.
His possessions were no match for an ordinary cultivator.
Immediately, he composed himself for the battle, using the "Moon Blade Meteor Wheel" to block and intercept the magic artifacts of the two attackers, while casting the secret technique "Five Elements Spirit Armor Technique" to enhance his own defenses, occasionally using a talisman or two as an auxiliary means.
At the same time, he directed the Rock Earth Turtle to cast spells to interfere with the two men, preventing them from focusing their full attention on attacking him.
As for the safety of the Rock Earth Turtle itself, there was no need to worry, as the enemies would not be able to break through its shell.
However, what Zhou Chun had not expected was that, just as he was holding his own in a three-on-one battle and not losing any ground,
soon a middle-aged couple, seemingly husband and wife, arrived on the mountain, and judging by the way they headed straight for the battlefield, it was unlikely they were there to help him.
Because he did not recognize those two.
If they were not there to help him and they were heading straight for the battlefield, the conclusion was not hard to draw.
This further confirmed Zhou Chun's previous suspicion that these people were specifically targeting him.
"You are Xu Kaishan's accomplices!"
Suddenly, Zhou Chun seemed to realize a key point and, with a changed expression, shouted at his opponents.
Upon hearing this, their expressions changed drastically, and a cold light flashed in their eyes as their attacks grew even more fierce.
This instantly confirmed Zhou Chun's guess.
Then, both shocked and furious, the thought of retreat grew strong in his heart.
If the enemies were associated with Xu Kaishan, then they would surely have Foundation Establishment Cultivators or even Purple Mansion Cultivators backing them.
These people were here to silence him by killing him!
Just as Zhou Chun's intent to retreat arose, his opponents also seemed to realize his intention to withdraw. They immediately called out to the middle-aged couple that had come to support them to circle around to his rear and block his escape.
Clearly, they had no intention of letting him leave the place alive!
Seeing this, Zhou Chun knew he could no longer hesitate or cling to reluctance.
He hastily recalled the Rock Earth Turtle, and after withstanding a wave of attacks from the three opposite him, he took out the second-tier talisman, "Wind Walking Talisman," which the Clan Leader Zhou Daoyi had rewarded him with, and activated it.
Suddenly, a cyan light swirled around Zhou Chun. With just a thought, his body swiftly rose into the air.
"He's trying to escape, stop him!"
The angry shout came from the man who had first spoken with Zhou Chun. He waved his hand and cast a first-tier top-grade talisman, "Fire Serpent Talisman," at Zhou Chun.
But this was wishful thinking.
With the clear wind swirling around him, Zhou Chun quickly ascended into the sky hundreds of feet high, then swiftly flew towards the outside of Flying Horse Mountain, faster than the flying speed of an average Foundation Establishment early-stage cultivator.
Under such circumstances, unless Foundation Establishment Cultivators pursued him,
Qi Refinement Cultivators, even with flying artifacts, would quickly lose sight of him.
The ones who had ambushed Zhou Chun also quickly realized this, and instead of pursuing into the air, they simply watched with displeasure as he flew away into the distance.
Little did they know that Zhou Chun, who was now leaving, also had an extremely grim look on his face.
He had already been sneak attacked by Xu Kaishan once before, nearly being gutted.
