Chapter 2183 Blue Water, Dragon's Lair and Tiger's Den

Lu Ye looked up and quickly stood up: "Brother Yan!"

Yan Hong actually came.

This surprised him a little. He had contacted Yan Hong before but got no response, so he knew that Yan Hong was recovering from his injuries. Now, it seemed that Yan Hong's injuries showed no signs of complete recovery, and his face was still pale, but he ran over here without knowing it.

Maybe he got the news through some channel.

"Brother Yan!" Zhou Gu and Sun Yun also stood up hurriedly. The smile on Zhou Gu's face disappeared, and he looked a little uneasy instead. Even Sun Yun, who had always been quite arrogant, couldn't help but shrink his neck when he saw Yan Hong.

Lu Ye watched coldly and secretly found it funny.

He didn't know that these three were of similar age and basically grew up together, but from childhood to adulthood, Yan Hong was always the most outstanding younger generation among the major families. Both Zhou Gu and Sun Yun had been beaten by him.

However, since entering the Tao, Yan Hong has been active in various war zones, honing himself and gaining military merits, while Zhou Gu and Sun Yun have settled down on their own planet. After all, as the descendants of aristocratic families like them, they have no shortage of resources for cultivation and do not need to take risks at all.

Before coming, the two knew that Yan Hong was also here, and they made a special effort to inquire about him. They learned that Yan Hong had been seriously injured before and was now recovering, so they thought they would not see him.

Who would have thought that Yan Hong would come uninvited at this time.

The two young men from noble families who seemed to be high and mighty in front of Lu Ye suddenly became submissive as if they had met their nemesis.

"Brother Yan, how come you are injured so badly? Come and sit here!" Sun Yun walked over and supported Yan Hong, helping him sit down.

"It turns out that Brother Yan is also in Lanshui. If I had known this, I should have gone to visit him first." Zhou Gu was extremely annoyed.

Yan Hong snorted coldly: "It's rare that you still have such a kind heart."

Zhou Gu hurriedly said, "Brother Yan, that's not true. Although you and I don't have the same surname, we grew up together, so we are blood relatives."

Yan Hong said: "Then tell me, who was speaking wildly and threatening my brother Lu just now?"

This is Brother Lu...

Although Yan Hong had intended to make friends with Lu Ye before, he had never called him that.

Zhou Gu laughed awkwardly and looked towards Sun Yun.

Sun Yun's expression froze, she stretched out her hand to hold Yan Hong's arm, and said coquettishly: "Brother Yan, you heard it wrong, there is no threat, we are just chatting with fellow Daoist Lu."

Yan Hong said coldly: "Don't think I don't know what you are thinking. Although you two have good talents, you have never been to the battlefield since you started practicing. What do you need that ant for? Do you really think that you can defeat Huang Zhihuan with the ant? Even I am not sure!"

"Yes, yes, yes." Zhou Gu nodded continuously, "Brother Yan is teaching me that Sister Yun and I were immature."

Yan Hong's expression eased a little: "Xiaoxiao belongs to my Yan family, do you have any objection?"

As soon as these words were spoken, both Zhou Gu and Sun Yun's faces froze. If it weren't for Yan Hong's past tyranny, the two of them would have turned against each other immediately.

Moreover, they did not expect that Yan Hong would be so decisive in his words, leaving them with no room for maneuver.

"Brother Yan, I followed my mother's orders..." Sun Yun looked at Yan Hong hesitantly. Before she could finish her words, he glared at her. She lowered her head quickly and said aggrievedly, "I know."

Yan Hong nodded: "I will go and talk to my aunt in person. Don't worry, your Sun family will not suffer any loss."

"That's good." Sun Yun still lowered her head.

Yan Hong looked at Zhou Gu again, his eyes were cold and the threat was self-evident.

Zhou Gu's heart skipped a beat, and he nodded like a chicken pecking at rice: "Whatever Brother Yan says is what it is, I, Zhou Gu, have no objection!"

"That's great!" Yan Hong nodded in satisfaction and waved his hand, saying, "The war zone is not safe, you two should go back to our home planet now."

"Oh." Sun Yun responded and led Rong Dao behind her out.

Zhou Gu was the same, but from an angle that no one noticed. His eyes changed several times, as if he had made some decision secretly, and his mind was surging.

The next moment, Rong Dao, who had been following Zhou Gu, suddenly reached out and grabbed Lu Ye.

This action was so sudden and unexpected that no one expected this to happen.

Lu Ye had not expected this. He thought that when Yan Hong showed up this time, Zhou Gu and Sun Yun would definitely leave in disgrace. It was only after they were caught by Rong Dao that they reacted.

"Uncle Yi, run!" Zhou Gu shouted in ecstasy.

As long as Uncle Yi can take Lu Ye away, the ant will belong to the Zhou family. As for Yan Hong’s anger... at most he will just be beaten up, but he won’t die anyway.

From childhood to adulthood, has he not been beaten enough?

Uncle Yi picked up Lu Ye and rushed out. Lu Ye didn't know whether he should resist or not...

If he didn't resist, he would definitely be captured. If he resisted, he would undoubtedly expose his own strength.

Sun Yun was dumbfounded. She never expected Zhou Gu to act like this and she hadn't reacted until this moment.

Yan Hong was furious: "Zhou Gu, how dare you!"

Regardless of his serious injuries, he reached out and grabbed a spear and chased after him, but he also knew that with his own strength, it was impossible to stop Uncle Yi. The other party was much stronger than him. Even Pei Dan, who he and Lu Ye had teamed up to kill that day, would not be a match for Uncle Yi.

“Hahahaha…” Zhou Gu couldn’t help laughing because of nervousness and also rushed forward, “Brother Yan, I will apologize to you when I return to this planet. Please let me go this time, uh…”

Zhou Gu, who had just soared into the sky, suddenly fell heavily to the ground, covered in dust.

He hurriedly got up, took a closer look, and was immediately dumbfounded.

Because Uncle Yi, who had originally captured Lu Ye, was now being beaten and spitting blood, while Lu Ye had already broken free from Uncle Yi's control and was standing quietly aside.

After a careful look, Zhou Gu's scalp tingled, and he recognized that the person who was beating Uncle Yi was Ziying, the guardian of Lanshui!

"Fellow Daoist Ziying, please stop. I'm just following orders. Wow..." Another mouthful of blood spurted out. Uncle Yi's chest was sunken, and he looked extremely miserable.

With a loud bang, Uncle Yi was knocked to the ground and fell directly into the earth. Half of his body was buried in the soil, leaving only a pair of legs outside, twitching slightly.

Zhou Gu's eyes twitched as he watched.

"There is another one!" Ziying dealt with Uncle Yi with three punches and two kicks. He then turned his gaze and stared at Rong Dao who was standing behind Sun Yun, and then he flashed over to kill him.

Rong Dao was still shocked by Ziying's strength, and was even gloating when he saw Uncle Yi suffer a loss. But who would have thought that Ziying would suddenly come towards him to kill him.

"Miss, be careful!" He raised his hand and pushed the dumbfounded Sun Yun away, and said hurriedly: "Fellow Daoist Ziying, I didn't do anything, please show mercy!"

"Rong Dao trespassed into Lanshui without notifying me, which means he doesn't take me seriously!" Ziying shouted softly and slapped him with his palm.

Rong Dao fought hard but was no match for Ziying. He suddenly became a head shorter and spat out a mouthful of blood.

"I didn't..." He felt extremely aggrieved. It was Uncle Yi who did it, so why should he be implicated as well?

The confrontation was as fast as lightning. As they were both at the level of Rong Dao, he had almost no ability to fight back in front of Ziying.

A moment later, a figure appeared next to Uncle Yi, also with half of his body buried in the soil, with only two legs dangling outside!
Lu Ye sniffed at the side, witnessing the bravery of the garrison commander for the first time.

Zhou Gu and Sun Yun, who were sitting on the ground, were shivering like quails without nests in the cold winter.

"If anyone from Rong Dao dares to enter Lan Shui without notifying us next time, he will be killed immediately!" Ziying stared at the two of them coldly before turning around and leaving.

Most of the depression in my heart dissipated.

The place remained silent long after Ziying had left.

"Hurry up and leave!" Yan Hong reminded.

Zhou Gu and Sun Yun just woke up from their dream, and the two Rong Dao buried in the soil also rolled up, each bringing their own young master and young lady, rushed out of the sky, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

They didn't dare to stay in this damn place any longer. They were lucky they pretended to be dead, otherwise their injuries would have been more serious. They also knew that Ziying couldn't really kill anyone, but it was very embarrassing to be beaten like this.

Blue water is a den of dragons and tigers, don’t enter it easily!

"I'm sorry to have frightened you, Brother Lu." Yan Hong looked at Lu Ye apologetically.

Lu Ye shook his head: "I also want to thank Brother Yan for coming to help."

Even if Yan Hong wasn't there, those two descendants of the aristocratic families wouldn't be able to do anything to him, but no matter which family he chose, he would offend the other one. He would be helpless and would definitely be bullied.

But it’s different with Yan Hong. With him taking the lead, this matter has nothing to do with Lu Ye anymore.

However, in this case, the ant only has one choice of where to go, which has both advantages and disadvantages.

Yan Hong shook his head: "We should thank our garrison commander." He also rushed here after receiving the news. Now it seems that the news must have been sent by the garrison commander.

Combined with Ziying's actions just now, Yan Hong vaguely knew Ziying's intention. It was obvious that the last war had caused the garrison commander to feel dissatisfied with the aristocratic family, and he took this opportunity to vent.

The injuries of the two Rongdao guards were not a big deal, and our planet wouldn't even care about it. After all, it was a fact that they came to Lanshui without any prior notice, and it was reasonable for Ziying to pursue the matter.

After a slight hesitation, Yan Hong said, "Brother Lu, that ant... could you let me take a look?"

When Lu Ye suddenly exploded that day and joined forces with him to kill Pei Dan, he guessed that Lu Ye had this top-notch Taoist weapon.

If it weren't for the need to heal my injuries these days, I would have come to see Lu Ye a long time ago.

He had heard of the name of Ant, but he had never seen it in person, so he couldn't help but be curious.

"Of course." Lu Ye took out the ant and handed it over.

Yan Hong took it solemnly, looked at it carefully, with a fascinated look in his eyes. Only after a long while, he solemnly handed the ant back.

Lu Ye was surprised: "Brother Yan, don't you want it?"

Now that he had handed over the ant, he had no intention of taking it back. He certainly could not keep it, and this treasure was of little use to him. He had planned to give it to the Yan family before, and Yan Hong obviously had the same intention. It would be a good idea to go with the flow now.

As for the benefits that the Yan family can give him... Yan Hong is a decent person and should be trustworthy. His conditions will not be worse than those of the other two families.
