The car slowly moved forward, and the three of them felt somewhat weary.

Thankfully, it wasn't the rainy season; otherwise, with those muddy roads, Chen Tianlong wouldn't dare drive in.

The car drove all the way towards Lotus Village, and Chen Tianlong felt a bit excited. Initially, when he left, he was just a country bumpkin, dressed in ragged clothes, looking like a fool. In the blink of an eye, half a year had passed, and Chen Tianlong felt he had changed a lot. Except for his personality, almost everything else had changed.

However, he obviously became more sophisticated, so overall, he had made progress. Now that he was returning home in glory, he really felt like an ancient scholar who had passed the imperial examination with the highest honors. At least now, he had a car and money.

No more herding cattle, chopping wood, or living a dull life.

However, that being said, after staying in a big city for a long time, returning to the countryside once in a while really gave a different feeling.

Tranquil, peaceful, without the hurried footsteps, without the noise of car horns. Although the bustling city was enticing, occasional peace was the kind of life Chen Tianlong wanted.

Chen Tianlong whistled, unhurriedly, and proceeded at an even pace.

However, less than a kilometer behind them, a black Audi car was trailing closely, and the person in it was none other than the second disciple, Shangguan Hong, who had followed them all the way from the Pure Yang Martial Arts Hall in Celestial Sea City.

Normally, Chen Tianlong might have noticed, but it was the time to prepare for the New Year, who would really bother with a murder at such a time? Naturally, Chen Tianlong let his guard down.

As Chen Tianlong's car slowly disappeared from his sight, Shangguan Hong didn't delay, as he wasn't familiar with this area either. Therefore, he had to intercept Chen Tianlong before he reached home.

A few minutes later, the black Audi car sped rapidly in the direction Chen Tianlong had driven.

At a T-intersection, Chen Tianlong was about to slow down when he suddenly noticed a black Audi car overtaking him. At first, Chen Tianlong didn't pay much attention, but after driving less than a hundred meters further, the black Audi suddenly swerved in front of him, blocking the already narrow asphalt road completely.

Chen Tianlong was shocked and furrowed his brows immediately. Who was this person, daring to drive like this?

However, just as he was thinking, an unfamiliar figure emerged from the Audi and took off his sunglasses. At this moment, Chen Tianlong became highly vigilant. Obviously, someone who dared to do such an action must know him well.

Shangguan Hong walked over slowly and then sneered coldly, "Will you come out voluntarily, or should I pull you out?"

Chen Tianlong smiled wryly. He knew that if he didn't come out, the BMW might be destroyed. He decided to believe in Shangguan Hong's strength, capable of kicking a car to pieces. After all, someone who knows him wouldn't send a mere Yellow Dao one-star to deal with him.

So, Chen Tianlong opened the car door and slowly walked out, then said with a wry smile, "Uncle, we have no grudges or enmity, so why make things difficult for me? I just want to have a good New Year, so please let me pass."

"Humph, no grudges or enmity? You just don't know who I am, but I'm not afraid to tell you. I'm from the Pure Yang Martial Arts Hall, Shangguan Hong. You've injured our people continuously. This time I'm here to take your life. Just accept your fate."

Shangguan Hong didn't want to waste words, immediately getting to the point with harsh words, as he didn't believe Chen Tianlong could defeat him.

"Alas!"

Chen Tianlong knew this person was determined to kill him. Although he didn't know why, he indeed had offended many people related to the Pure Yang Martial Arts Hall.

With this thought, Chen Tianlong began to activate his Heart Method. Although he couldn't win, he held a sliver of hope, because with a few more kilometers, he'd reach Lotus Village. Once there, he wouldn't need to worry anymore.

Since Old Chen, Chen Tian, was in the village, to date, Chen Tianlong believed that no one could defeat Old Chen. Although Chen Tianlong didn't know his exact strength, he felt Old Chen was an invincible behemoth.

He was like the Ultraman of his childhood, always protecting him. It's just that Old Chen had a strange illness that rendered him weak when it acted up; otherwise, he would've long moved to the big city.

So, he must find a way to escape. If he could get to the village, everything would be fine.

Thus, Chen Tianlong looked around. The road ahead was clearly blocked by Shangguan Hong's Audi. To escape, he had to turn around and head back.

About two hundred meters away, there was another road, but that road was a muddy one, somewhat bumpy and uneven. That was why Chen Tianlong hadn't chosen it earlier.

"Stop looking, you can't escape!"

Shangguan Hong watched Chen Tianlong looking around and knew he was trying to find a place to escape, so he said with a bitter smile, "I advise you to come back with me. Maybe our master will show mercy. Otherwise, if I get rough and injure or cripple you, don't blame me."

"...." Chen Tianlong was speechless. Shangguan Hong was indeed too strong; none of his actions escaped his eyes. At once, Chen Tianlong felt a sense of crisis.

Chen Tianlong shook his head; he had to face this situation alone, after all, the two remaining in the car were a little girl, his sister, and Shen Yan, both unable to fight even a chicken.

"Boy, have you thought it through? I'm about to make a move."

Shangguan Hong thought Chen Tianlong wasn't a heinous person. He was just a kid. If it weren't for his mission, he really didn't want to kill during this big New Year.

"Oh, I won't think anymore; come on then. I'm going to die anyway. If I go back with you, there's probably no way to survive. I'd rather die fighting in my hometown."

Chen Tianlong gritted his teeth and said. Perhaps this would provide a slim chance; if Shangguan Hong had any shred of pity and held back, then he might have the opportunity to escape.

"Oh? Are you sure?"

Shangguan Hong was also a bit helpless. He knew that if Chen Tianlong went back with him, it would also be a life-and-death situation. Shangguan Ba, his senior, was somewhat understandable. After capturing Chen Tianlong, he would definitely beat him to a pulp to vent his anger.

Chen Tianlong nodded, displaying the strength of his Yellow Dao three-star all over.

Shangguan Hong looked a bit puzzled, but at this moment, he didn't think too much, directly reaching out with a Grapple, intending to lock Chen Tianlong.

But Chen Tianlong's Ghost Shadow Step was extraordinary. Shangguan Hong's strength was much greater than his, undeniably, but in terms of mobility, Chen Tianlong had confidence to match.

Yellow Dao five-star!

In just one round, Chen Tianlong gauged the uncle's strength, surprisingly strong.

However, precisely because of Chen Tianlong's Divine Skill, there was a slim hope of escape. Otherwise, relying solely on his Yellow Dao three-star strength, escaping the clutches of a Yellow Dao five-star master would be absolutely impossible.

"Soul-Stealing Three Needles!"

This time, Chen Tianlong shouted it out loud. After all, there were few people here; even if Shangguan Hong heard his skill, so what. Perhaps this was his final battle.

Just when Chen Tianlong shouted the name, Shangguan Hong was visibly startled.

To know, this move was renowned in the martial world many years ago. The Soul-Stealing Three Needles was a Heaven-defying Martial Skill that made everyone tremble with fear. How did this young man know it? It was unbelievable.

Just as he was thinking intently, Chen Tianlong flashed forward, directly striking Shangguan Hong in the chest.
