Chapter 926: Being Followed
It can be said that Tang Yansheng has always treated Tang Ya as his own granddaughter.
Tang Ya has great respect for the grandfather who raised her.
Besides cleaning the Tang Clan's main hall, the purpose of this trip back is to pay tribute to the person who has protected the Tang Clan throughout his life.
"The Tang Clan, as far as I know, should be a very ancient sect, founded by that person back then."
"Unfortunately, with the passage of time, the Tang Clan has also declined."
"I never expected to hear the name of the Tang Clan here. This is a good opportunity to pay my respects to the statue of that senior."
As a princess of the Heavenly Soul Empire, Vena naturally knew many of the events that happened back then.
So he spoke up, and at the same time, he felt a desire to visit the statue of the elder who had been kind to his ancestors.
"It's getting late, let's go. We must get back to the old site of the Tang Clan before sunset."
Seeing that everyone had finished eating, Tang Lan placed the coins on the table.
The group understood each other without saying anything more, and simply left quietly.
Even so, they were still targeted by a few people in another corner.
They exchanged a glance, a malicious smile playing on their lips.
After hurriedly paying the bill, I quietly followed them.
Tang Lan and the others' four carriages quickly left Feiyan City and sped off in the northeast direction.
Fang Zi, who was behind, suddenly quickened her pace and arrived at Tang Lan and the others' carriage, saying, "We're being watched!"
"What? This, how is this possible! We haven't found them for so long."
Upon hearing this, all the women in the carriage were startled, completely unaware of when they had been followed.
"It must have been when we were dining in Feiyan City that those few people in the corner were indeed giving us strange looks."
"There's a grove of trees ahead. We'll wait for them there. We need to resolve these problems as soon as possible before we can continue on our way."
Tang Lan looked around at the surrounding terrain before speaking.
The others nodded in agreement, and soon the four carriages sped off into the woods and disappeared from the road.
"Big brother, they've gone into the woods. Have they spotted us?"
From behind, a man with red hair and a rooster-like hairstyle suddenly spoke up.
Around him were seven men, each riding a horse, moving forward at a steady pace.
"Hmph, whether they've noticed us or not, they're sorely mistaken if they think they can shake us off by hiding in the woods!"
"What they don't know is that it's much easier for us to get things done inside."
"Everyone, speed up! Their carriages aren't as fast as ours. We'll take both the money and the women. Kill the men and take them all with us."
The leading man snorted coldly, a sneer playing on his lips.
But when he mentioned those women, his eyes revealed an undisguised greed and lust.
However, after entering the woods, they chased after the other party at top speed for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, but they still couldn't find any trace of them.
"Damn it, where did these guys go? Did they trick us and then go back in circles?"
The leader of the eight stopped in an open space, looking at the empty surroundings, and couldn't help but fly into a rage.
"This is unbelievable! The carriage tracks disappear here. Could they fly?"
Another bald henchman couldn't help but speak up.
However, at that moment, a burst of applause suddenly came from the forest.
Several figures began to emerge from the shadows, with Tang Lan being the first to appear.
Tang Lan, with a calm expression and a slight smile, said, "You all must be looking for us!"
"Boss, it's them. This kid looks like a cunning rascal. I think it's better to make an example of him to intimidate him."
The red-haired younger brother pointed at Tang Lan and made the suggestion first.
"Okay, go and surround them, make sure they don't get away."
"And you, that boy is yours now. If you can take him down, everything on him is yours."
The leader of the eight glanced at his underlings and then gave orders.
So the seven people slowly moved their bodies, forming an encirclement, surrounding Tang Lan and the others in the middle.
Tang Lan and her group consisted of ten people, but only three of them were men, which Tang Lan subconsciously didn't take seriously.
In addition, Tang Ya and the other women were all stunningly beautiful, so these people were completely unaware of the true identities of the hunter and the prey.
In an instant, the eight people on the other side simultaneously revealed their martial spirits.
The latest novel is first published here!
The burly man at the head of the group was actually a Soul Saint who possessed a Black Mist Martial Soul.
Beside him were a Soul Saint with the Leopard Martial Soul and a Soul Saint with the Ancient Lamp Martial Soul as his support.
Besides these three, the other five, three of whom are Soul Emperors and two of whom are Soul Kings, possess an extremely powerful aura when they are together.
With such a group of people gathered together, they could roam freely around this small town.
It's no wonder they dared to openly engage in such robbery and plunder, because they knew that no one of the lower ranks within dozens of miles could rival them.
But they clearly missed the identities of Tang Lan and the others; how could such a group of people with such extraordinary bearing be the natives of this place?
The leader, who possessed the Black Tiger Martial Soul, roared, and his first three soul rings lit up simultaneously.
A black light enveloped it, and the guy's bones suddenly grew larger, gaining a boost in strength, speed, and defense.
However, this person did not rush towards Tang Lan, but instead focused his gaze on Ma Xiaotao, who had already summoned her martial soul.
At this moment, Ma Xiaotao had already released her level 76 soul power fluctuations.
In an instant, the two Soul Saints were locked in battle.
Ma Xiaotao activated Phoenix Fire Line and Phoenix Wings Soaring, unleashing a powerful evil wind and fire that swept across everything within several feet.
The burly leader was equally experienced in combat. Instead of engaging in a direct confrontation, he used his unusually agile speed to dodge Ma Xiaotao's Phoenix Fire Line.
"Go to hell, you pretty boy!"
Meanwhile, the red-haired leopard-like Soul Saint was incredibly fast, arriving in front of Tang Lan in just a few blinks.
Then it raised its sharp claws and reached for Tang Lan's neck.
"What did you say?"
However, Tang Lan suddenly made a move and grabbed the guy's wrist.
He stood as still as a mountain, staring coldly at the green-haired man and saying, "Who are you calling a gigolo?"
"Hehe, with so many pretty girls around you, and you're all fair and delicate, what else could you be but a pretty boy!"
Taking advantage of Tang Lan's frown, this guy suddenly kicked Tang Lan's wrist with his right foot.
Taking advantage of Tang Lan's momentary lapse in attention, he quickly dodged to the side.
"You think you can just come and leave? Who do you take me for?"
Tang Lan snorted coldly, and with a grab of her hand, a golden dragon claw appeared in front of her, instantly capturing the green-haired soul master within its grasp. (End of Chapter)
