Chapter 186: Arrest

Translator: Myuu  Editor: Myuu

Liang Yijie’s surprise attack against Ye Tiancheng was definitely a great shock to everyone.

Everyone, including Yan Liqiang, didn’t expect Liang Yijie to suddenly strike Ye Tiancheng at a time like this.

Under such circumstances, Ye Tiancheng’s strength was instantly exposed.

The moment the gleaming sword swept across Ye Tiancheng, Ye Tiancheng sent the entire table before him flying toward Liang Yijie’s gleaming sword with a kick. This all happened as he prepared to flee by leaping to the side.

The plates and utensils on the table crashed to the ground with thunderous noises, and the table itself was split in half by Liang Yijie’s sword.

When Ye Tiancheng was about to leap, the maid who had been pouring wine for him from behind suddenly reached out with one of her hands from her long sleeve and gave Ye Tiancheng a light press on the back…

“UGH…!” Ye Tiancheng’s face instantly turned blue before he coughed up a mouthful of blood. He howled in rage, then swung his fist violently behind him. Like a dandelion in a squall, the maid spread both of her arms out and gracefully flew backward. She hooked one of her legs on a pillar not far behind her; with a swing, she balanced herself on the pillar which was parallel to the ground, thus evading Ye Tiancheng’s attack.

The gleaming sword relentlessly swept toward Ye Tiancheng again. Ye Tiancheng snarled furiously and his hair instantly stood on its end and was flying about. He spread his arms before his hands came together again like a huge pair of pliers, instantly catching Liang Yijie’s sword between them with a loud clap.

The attacks were swift and rapid. The previously cheerful atmosphere in the main hall grew intense in just the blink of an eye. The maids beside Sun Bingchen and Huangfu Qianqi were already screaming in terror, and their beautiful faces paled.

Yan Liqiang was dumbstruck by the scene before him.

Ye Tiancheng, who was refined and poised moments ago, looked pathetic in just the blink of an eye. His hair was disheveled and blood leaked from the corners of his mouth.

Sun Bingchen, who was still smiling, remained seated, and he was actually clapping his hands. “Good skill, good skill. As expected, the Prefectural Governor always keeps his own counsel. For you to be able to train your skill to the extent of catching a sharp blade empty-handed, you must have surpassed the Martial Grandmaster realm and is progressing into a Martial Knight…”

Ye Tiancheng, who caught the blade of Liang Yijie’s sword, looked at Sun Bingchen like a wounded stray wolf.

Huangfu Qianqi had stood up from his seat since long ago and was staring at Sun Bingchen, then at Ye Tiancheng in bewilderment. He seemed as though he was at a complete loss. “L-Lord Sun, what is going on…?”

“Pingxi Prefectural Governor, Ye Tiancheng, has colluded with Shatu people, abused his authority, committed treason, and devastated his citizens. As a Patrol Inspector, I have long secured conclusive evidence and shall arrest the Prefectural Governor right here. Do you have anything you wish to say, Military Governor?” Sun Bingchen’s expression instantly turned solemn as he stared at Huangfu Qianqi and spoke coldly. “I understand that although the Military Governor is also from Pingxi Prefecture, you are not part of Ye Tiancheng’s scheme. There is no need for you to panic.”

Upon hearing Sun Bingchen enumerating his crimes, Ye Tiancheng’s countenance instantly contorted. He snarled furiously and a burst of red light exploded from his body. He flung both of his hands and kicked, instantly sending Liang Yijie flying before he charged toward Sun Bingchen.

When the maid, who was standing on top of the pillar, saw Ye Tiancheng move, she instantly leaped into the air from the pillar with a shout. She flung her sleeve in midair, which then suddenly turned into a longsword that was a few zhang long. Like a rapid white waterfall, it stridently broke through the air and lunged toward Ye Tiancheng.

Ye Tiancheng struck his fist on the sleeve with a loud bang. The sleeve cracked before it shattered. Its fragments fell like fluttering snow in the skies before they burst into flames in midair, making Ye Tiancheng appear as though he was on fire. The maid who flew toward him got struck so hard again that she was sent flying backward once more. Ye Tiancheng spun around in midair and continued pouncing toward Sun Bingchen.

Sun Bingchen remained seated like an immovable mountain, holding a wine cup in his hand as he watched Ye Tiancheng who was closing in on him.

At this moment, Yan Liqiang moved. As Sun Bingchen’s personal attendant, Yan Liqiang made his choice when he made clear of the situation.

He didn’t have any weapons on him, not even a knife or sword. However, there was an incense burner beside him made out of copper and more than a meter in height. The copper statue beneath it was sculpted with exquisite craftsmanship. It held both of its hands high to prop the incense burner over its head. The incense burner was burning some spices in it and its fragrance was still emanating from within.

When Yan Liqiang saw Ye Tiancheng charge toward Sun Bingchen, he lifted the incense burner without a second thought. With a snarl, he rushed forward in front of Sun Bingchen and flung the huge incense burner like a weapon at Ye Tiancheng who was charging in their direction.

The weight of the huge incense burner was more than two hundred jin. With Yan Liqiang’s brute force, the burner was flung with a terrifying destructive force. The moment Yan Liqiang threw it with all his strength, a gust of strong wind rose around him.

Yan Liqiang’s hatred and murderous intent toward Ye Tiancheng, which he had been suppressing all this time, completely erupted at this moment and he wasn’t pulling any punches.

To others, Yan Liqiang’s action seemed like an act of bravery and fearlessness, undaunted by any dangers.

Watching the huge incense burner, which turned into Yan Liqiang’s weapon, coming head-on toward him, there was no way for Ye Tiancheng to dodge it either. Hence, he had no choice but to reach his hand out and hit the copper statue of the incense burner on its head with his palm.

As the saying goes, ‘A man who possesses brute force can take on ten martial experts.’ When Ye Tiancheng’s hand came into contact with the incense burner Yan Liqiang had flung at him, his expression turned grave. He didn’t expect Yan Liqiang’s wrists to be this powerful.

The moment they exchanged blows, Yan Liqiang felt the huge surging force from the copper statue. His entire body was sent flying from the impact of that force before he landed on the screen nearby. The screen was knocked to the ground and he became a tumbling calabash on the ground. On the other hand, Ye Tiancheng was stopped in his tracks from Yan Liqiang’s attack and he was even knocked a couple of steps backward.

Liang Yijie’s gleaming sword swept toward Ye Tiancheng again from behind like a rapid waterfall. When Huangfu Qianqi, who was hesitating, saw that even Yan Liqiang had charged toward Ye Tiancheng, he instantly snapped back to reality and responded. Not daring to remain as an onlooker at the side, he drew the longsword hanging at his waist. With an angry yell, he swung his sword toward Ye Tiancheng from the side.

When Ye Tiancheng was about to move, his face suddenly turned blue again. He coughed up another mouthful of blood. His movement was suddenly slowed down as he faced the converging attacks from Liang Yijie and Huangfu Qianqi…

…

Yan Liqiang tumbled across the ground for about ten rounds and only came to a stop when he hit the wall.

As soon as he came to a stop, he sprung up from the ground with a carp skip-up and looked toward the middle of the hall. Ye Tiancheng was already bleeding. He had sustained a sword injury on his shoulder, and his long gown was already soaked in blood. Yan Liqiang took another look around and noticed that the head of the copper statue under the incense burner was already dented, with a deep impression of a palmprint. When the incense burner crashed into the ground near where he was, a crater was created on the floor. He rushed over to pick that incense burner up, then charged toward Ye Tiancheng with a snarl again.

Ye Tiancheng didn’t wait for Yan Liqiang to reach him. He coughed up another mouthful of blood and fled to the exit. However, the moment he reached the exit, a huge net was cast from the other side of the exit, effectively trapping him inside. As soon as he was captured inside the net, two powerful crossbows were fired from outside, impaling his thighs. Ye Tiancheng let out a painful howl and instantly dropped to the ground. Before he could even get up again, Liang Yijie had charged toward him and brought his sword down consecutively upon him like a meteor shower. His sword gleamed each time it landed and Ye Tiancheng’s voice ceased abruptly…

“Ah, you killed him, Brother Liang…” Yan Liqiang who rushed toward them with the copper statue in his hands looked at Ye Tiancheng who had collapsed motionlessly on the ground like a dead fish caught in a net, thinking that Liang Yijie had killed him. He was unsure whether he should be happy or shocked about it.

Liang Yijie put his longsword away and cast a glance at Yan Liqiang. An impressed look flashed across his eyes. “Not killed. That was a sword acupoint sealing technique I’ve been cultivating. I merely sealed a few important acupoints in his body…”

Upon hearing Liang Yijie’s explanation, Yan Liqiang let out a long sigh of relief.

A few rather familiar looking guards rushed inside and restrained the motionless Ye Tiancheng with a full set of metal restraints in a flash…
