Peach Blossom Divine Medical God Chapter 2190 - 2146: Something’s Not Right

Although it’s called a city, the actual population is likely less than that of some well-developed towns.

It’s only a mere eight or nine thousand people, barely reaching ten thousand.

Such a city, in the vast Mystic Realm, is really just a tiny speck of a city, one that can’t make it onto the stage.

And it’s precisely because Weng City is relatively small and lacks cultivation resources that Cangnan Academy has neglected its management.

Over time, this has led to quite a bit of chaos there.

There are always various problems cropping up.

But the problems that appeared before were almost all minor, like mountain bandits and thieves.

However, this time, unexpectedly, the Evil Sect has appeared.

This shows just how little Weng City is valued.

Usually, the appearance of the Evil Sect is definitely considered a major event.

The higher-level agencies would definitely act quickly to eradicate them.

However, they’ve given such a task to Chen Yang.

This is partly due to Zhao Shuo’s maneuvering, aiming to create trouble for himself, and partly because Weng City is truly disregarded.

"Brother Chen Yang, I’ve looked into Weng City, too. It’s over two hundred kilometers from our academy, so we’d better hurry."

As soon as they left the academy, entering the area where they could fly, Tu Qi immediately soared into the sky.

Judging by his demeanor, he seemed even more eager to head to Weng City than Chen Yang.

"Okay."

Chen Yang nodded, then harnessed his Spiritual Power to lift himself into the air and rushed towards the northwest.

Just as they set out, Zhao Shuo, staying in the elders’ residential area of the academy, received the information.

Upon hearing that Chen Yang had departed, a sinister smile appeared on Zhao Shuo’s face.

"Good, this little brat has finally fallen into the trap! This time, I don’t believe he can evade my plan!" Zhao Shuo said maliciously and instructed the disciple beside him, "You, go notify the Zou family people immediately."

"Tell them, the person who killed Zou Tianming, I’ve already lured him out of the academy! I hope they handle the rest cleanly!"

"Yes, Master!"

The disciple nodded, then immediately proceeded as Zhao Shuo instructed.

On the other side, Chen Yang and Tu Qi had no premonition of the impending danger.

Because Chen Yang felt that this time Zhao Shuo would behave the same as last time, only making trouble behind the scenes, using others to do his bidding.

He certainly wouldn’t try to assassinate openly.

The risk is too high; any misstep could expose himself.

So, Chen Yang never considered this possibility.

As they flew dozens of kilometers away, arriving above a mountain range, Chen Yang suddenly felt a strong sense of unease.

He hurriedly stopped in mid-air, refraining from continuing into the mountain area ahead.

Although Tu Qi was hefty, his flying speed wasn’t particularly slow; he could keep up with Chen Yang’s pace.

Seeing Chen Yang suddenly halt, he too made an abrupt stop beside Chen Yang.

This guy couldn’t keep his mouth shut even while flying, still gnawing on a chicken leg.

Who knows where he keeps so much food on him.

"Huh? What’s wrong, Chen Yang, why did you suddenly stop?" Tu Qi asked as he chewed on a piece of meat.

Chen Yang, with a solemn look, gazed at the mountains ahead, and spoke, "There’s something off with this mountain range up ahead."

"Something off with the mountain range?"

Tu Qi was stunned, turning his gaze to the mountains in front.

But he didn’t sense anything at all.

All he saw were lush mountains and clear water; everything seemed normal.

"Chen Yang, you’re too tense, aren’t you? I don’t see anything wrong with the mountains, everything seems normal." Tu Qi laughed carelessly, brushing it off, thinking Chen Yang was being overly sensitive.

But Chen Yang had immense faith in his intuition.

Moreover, that uneasy feeling was genuinely real.

"No, there’s definitely something wrong up ahead, we shouldn’t proceed! Let’s take a detour."

Despite Tu Qi’s jesting, Chen Yang spoke assertively.

Seeing Chen Yang’s firm stance, Tu Qi became serious too, realizing Chen Yang wasn’t joking.

Moreover, upon careful observation, it wasn’t hard to see that the forest ahead was very suited for an ambush.

"Alright, I checked the map; there’s a small town nearby. How about we just stop for the night there?"

Tu Qi leaned close to Chen Yang and suggested in a low voice.

It was already nearing dusk, and combined with the sense of insecurity from the mountains, Chen Yang indeed didn’t feel like continuing the journey.

"Hmm, okay."

Chen Yang nodded in agreement, then both he and Tu Qi quickly turned around and flew off, vanishing in the blink of an eye.

Just a few seconds after they left, several figures dashed out from the nearby woods, hovering in the air.

"Damn, that kid’s really alert!"

A woman gritted her teeth and spoke.

"No matter how alert, he won’t escape death! Since he’s out, we can’t miss this chance to avenge Tianming!" Another man, resembling Zou Tianming slightly, spoke.

His tone was extraordinarily icy, filled with murderous intent towards Chen Yang!

"Yes, pursue!"

The woman nodded and then chased in the direction where Chen Yang and Tu Qi had vanished.

On the other side, having sensed something wrong, Chen Yang and Tu Qi, after swiftly escaping the mountain entrance, did not leave directly.

Instead, after flying a short distance, they immediately dove down, hiding within the woods, quickly concealing their presence.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh...

From their hiding spot in the woods, they watched the three shadowy figures flying past above, taken aback.

It was fortunate they didn’t enter the mountain range, otherwise, they would have fallen into a trap!

Moreover, judging from the three’s auras, they weren’t weak.

If they had indeed stepped into the trap, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"Brother Chen Yang, your intuition is really accurate; we almost fell into a trap just now." Tu Qi was relieved, glad he chose to trust Chen Yang then.

Otherwise, they would surely be in huge trouble now.

The three’s realms were not below the Condensation Realm.

Additionally, the aura emanating from all three was very strong, which would certainly overwhelm them if confronted.

Chen Yang was equally taken aback.

He had never imagined that he could encounter an assassination attempt on the road!

Zhao Shuo, that old fiend, one day you shall meet your end by my hand.

Chen Yang cursed inwardly.

After a moment of contemplation, he looked up at Tu Qi, "They went chasing in that direction, we definitely shouldn’t go the same way; let’s go this way!"

Originally intending to head northwest, the sudden appearance of the three forced them to change course.

They must first head north, then find a new route to Weng City in the northwest.

"Alright, let’s go, I’ll follow your lead."

Tu Qi had a deep respect for Chen Yang’s intuition, so he offered no objections, immediately agreeing to Chen Yang’s suggestion, proceeding on foot to travel north through the mountains.

About ten kilometers north of their current location was a small town.

Chen Yang intended to stop there temporarily.
