"Really?"
Ling Ying looked intently at Yang Tian.
Since Elder Hong's Spirit Breaking, Ling Ying had changed her mind. Although she didn't admit her father was the old Saint Master of the Dark Organization, the death of Elder Hong made her decide to complete the revival Elder Hong spoke of.
But she didn't have the strength to do it alone.
So when Yang Tian agreed to help her restore the old Saint Master's reign, she was somewhat excited.
"It's true, I will help you restore your father's reign!"
Yang Tian held Ling Ying tightly.
Ling Ying was the woman he loved. How could he let his woman bear this helplessness alone?
Ling Ying's father was the old Saint Master of the Dark Organization, and Ling Ying's task was to restore her father's reign. But this journey would inevitably be arduous and dangerous. How could Yang Tian be willing to let his woman suffer any harm?
If he couldn't even protect his woman, if he couldn't solve his woman's troubles, what kind of man would he be?
Yang Tian held Ling Ying tightly, secretly determining that no matter what happened, he would stand in front of Ling Ying.
"Our most important task now is to return to East Sea!"
Yang Tian then said.
"But what about Mrs. Chu and the others..."
Ling Ying's face was a bit tense.
"We'll call them to go back to East Sea directly. The thing the Dark Organization wants is in my hands."
Yang Tian instructed Ling Ying to make a call, and Ling Ying quickly took out her phone to call Chu Qian. She called for a long time but no one answered. Just as she was about to hang up, the call was connected, and an anxious voice rang out: "Daughter, leave immediately, don't come back..."
Ling Ying's face changed, realizing something was wrong. She was just about to say something when the call ended.
"What happened?"
Yang Tian frowned.
"Something went wrong..."
Ling Ying hadn't finished speaking when the phone rang again. This time Yang Tian answered, and a cold voice sounded: "Yang Tian, I'll give you three hours, come back, your people are with me..."
"Dark Saintess, if you dare..."
Yang Tian was about to warn, but almost immediately, a painful scream was heard from the phone: "Ah..."
Then the phone went dead with a busy tone.
"Ling Ying, we are going back now!"
Yang Tian and Ling Ying emerged from the woods and took a taxi straight to Ke La Hotel. In less than an hour, they returned, only to find the entire hotel cordoned off and full of armed police officers. As Yang Tian and Ling Ying approached, they were stopped: "The police are handling the matter, it's dangerous inside, stay back!"
"What happened inside..."
Ling Ying asked anxiously.
"Several men and women have taken hostages. An hour ago, they killed a hostage, and the body was sent out..."
Hearing this, Ling Ying's face turned pale, and she leaned helplessly against Yang Tian.
"It can't be Chu Qian!"
Yang Tian held Ling Ying tightly, continuously comforting her.
"Yang Tian, since you're here, come in. If you don't want them to die, bring the Holy Sword in..."
At this moment, a cold voice sounded from inside the hotel.
Instantly, everyone's face changed because the voice was very loud and spread out.
"I warn you, release the hostages immediately and surrender. If not, we will force our way in..."
A police officer with a megaphone hadn't finished speaking when a white energy burst from inside the hotel, flipping anyone and anything in its path, including police cars. People panicked and fled in all directions.
Soon, the energy reached Yang Tian.
Slam!
Yang Tian extended his palm and slapped forcefully, shattering the energy.
The surroundings calmed down.
"What's going on? My god, he actually neutralized that unknown attack?"
The fleeing police officers looked back at Yang Tian, each one amazed.
"Ling Ying, wait for me outside..."
Yang Tian said before heading into the hotel.
"My god, is he flying..."
Everyone saw Yang Tian heading towards the hotel, reaching the fifth-floor balcony in just a few moments, leaving them stunned.
Yang Tian activated the X-ray Vision Technique and scanned the surroundings, quickly locating Wang Ying and the others.
Bam!
Yang Tian burst through the door of the lobby and entered.
In the lobby, Wang Ying and the others huddled in a corner, a powerful aura pressing down on them, rendering them immobile. In the center of the lobby, the Dark Saintess and the Law Enforcement Hall King stood with icy expressions.
Behind the Law Enforcement Hall King stood five subordinates from the Law Enforcement Department.
"Very well, Yang Tian, you came back for your friends..."
The Dark Saintess snapped her fingers.
Those men behind the Law Enforcement Hall King moved. Their speed was incredible, almost instantaneously surrounding Yang Tian.
A powerful aura bore down.
Yang Tian frowned. His Divine Sense detected that these men were as strong as Blood Kill.
When Yang Tian subdued Blood Kill, he relied on Ghost Thorn's Spirit Breaking.
But if it came to confrontation, Yang Tian didn't yet have the power to kill Blood Kill.
And Blood Kill was the Hall Master of the Dark Organization's Law Enforcement Department, so these men were naturally also at the level of Hall Masters.
Clang!
Yang Tian drew the Holy Sword, facing his deadly foes.
"East Blood, handle the attack, other Hall Masters form the array! Don't kill him..."
