Chapter 160: Ambush
However, he did not rush out, but continued to wait for two hours. Only after confirming that there was really no one there did he walk out of the secret room.

The moment he came out, Zhou Chen also opened his eyes, "Are you ready to go?" The reason why Zhou Chen did not take action was because if he took action in the city, the noise would be too loud and it would be easy to expose himself. If he went out of the city, it would be a different story.

Even if the Shen family came looking for him at that time, who would know that it was me who did it? Shen Qingshan changed into ordinary people's clothes and then quietly slipped out from the back of the inn.

Then he moved towards the city gate. During this time, he took out the disc from time to time to check if there was any mid-level master following him.

Although it can only detect the existence of the sixth rank, it is enough. If it is a fifth rank expert, it will be useless even if it is discovered.

After swallowing a few pills, Zhou Chen followed behind him, keeping a distance of 300 meters. At the same time, he kept the Eye of Extreme open to prevent this guy from running away.

This guy suddenly stopped when he was two hundred meters away from the city gate, then found a house and went in. At this time, the couple in the house were sleeping, and suddenly Shen Qingshan twisted their necks.

Seeing this, Zhou Chen clenched his fists and said, “I will definitely get rid of you once you leave the city.”

Zhou Chen found a secluded place to hide. It would be dawn in an hour, and the city gate would open half an hour after dawn. Zhou Chen guessed that he would follow the people out when the city gate opened.

What Zhou Chen didn't know at this time was that Wu'an County was unusually lively tonight. The Shen family members who escaped from Fulai Inn had been running around in the city. Their mission was to try not to be caught. The longer they persisted, the safer Shen Qingshan would be.

At the same time, Shen Qingshan had another mission, which was that Wu'an Jun could run or hide anywhere but must not get close to the city gate, because Shen Qingshan still wanted to escape. If they led people to the city gate and exposed Shen Qingshan's position, it would be a capital crime.

The Shen family has extremely strict management. Although the benefits given to sixth-rank warriors are generous, their loyalty is also required to be very high. Otherwise, even if you are a sixth-rank warrior, you will not be accepted. Instead, they will send people to kill you.

Soon it was daybreak and the forces in the city were captured. After an entire night, less than half of them were captured. More than half were still hiding in the city. Although it was more difficult to capture them after daybreak, the Demon Suppression Division did not order the city to be closed.

The Demon Suppression Division has this power but will not abuse it under normal circumstances. If the Shen family were to learn that Wu'an County has closed the city gates, the entire city would use its full strength to suppress and kill Shen Qingshan.

The Shen family will not let it go. After all, the Shen family is powerful and the Demon Suppression Division does not want to provoke the Shen family unless it is necessary. As for the county magistrate, he turned a deaf ear to the matter and did not intervene.

However, there were several more warriors from various major forces outside the city. They were responsible for checking the people leaving the city. They ignored ordinary people and specifically checked whether there were any sixth-rank warriors mixed in among them.

Although they did not have Zhou Chen's system and could not view a person's detailed information, they could still detect if a sixth-rank warrior passed by.

They basically knew all the sixth-rank warriors in the city, and would immediately capture any unfamiliar warriors. Zhou Chen sat in front of a stall selling buns, wearing a hat to cover the pattern between his eyebrows.

While eating the meat bun, he observed Shen Qingshan. Shen Qingshan was not a pretentious person. He actually lay in a dead person's coffin in order to leave the city.

Using the stench of the corpses to mask their own scent, the soldiers guarding the city had no obligation to help them search, and those masters thought it was bad luck and let them leave without further investigation.

Zhou Chen put down a dozen coins, then used Frost Phantom to chase after him. Ordinary people just felt that the air suddenly became a little cooler, and did not notice Zhou Chen walking past them.

Although the warriors at the door had noticed something was wrong, Zhou Chen had already disappeared by the time they reacted. It was too late to chase him, so they pretended that nothing had happened. Although he was a sixth-grade warrior, he would not get a share even if he found the Nine Nether Mysterious Ice. It was not worth risking his life for that little reward. The most important thing was that they knew Shen Qingshan was a peak sixth-grade warrior.

He is at the peak of the sixth rank and has a strong background. Even if he meets a fifth rank opponent, he will be able to fight.

Zhou Chen came directly in front of Shen Qingshan, then hid in the dark and waited for him. Shen Qingshan had been hiding in the coffin, and only broke out of the coffin after the carriage pulling the coffin stopped completely.

The coachman pulling the coffin was so frightened when he saw this scene that he fainted on the spot. There was a group of people in the city who specialized in collecting corpses. If one felt that he was about to die or had a life-and-death duel with someone, he would find these people and give them enough money in advance.

Then after they die, someone will come to collect their bodies. These people are very dedicated. As long as they are given money, they will definitely collect the bodies of the deceased, unless there is no trace left of the deceased.

Shen Qingshan hid in this coffin where he had no relatives or friends. The first thing he did when he came out was to smash the coffin with a palm, and then he came to the coachman and broke his neck with his foot.

After doing all this, he was about to go back, but at this moment a huge sword flew towards him. Shen Qingshan was shocked when he saw this and directly condensed his internal strength to strike out with a palm, but his true energy was directly torn apart by the sword energy.

Shen Qingshan quickly dodged to the side, but before he could react, Zhou Chen appeared in front of him and swung his sword with Phantom Kill.

In the vast wilderness, Shen Qingshan hurriedly took out weapons from his storage ring to resist, but he was in too haste and before he could gather his true energy, Zhou Chen's long sword had already chopped out.

A huge blade energy burst out from Bingpo, and the moment it hit his sword, it created a crack in space, and at the same time the sword broke.

Shen Qingshan quickly retreated backwards and asked, "Who are you?"
How could Zhou Chen let him escape? Although the opponent's skills were inferior to his, as a child of a big family, he must have some tricks up his sleeve. Zhou Chen's sudden sneak attack was to catch him off guard.

He swung out again, and the icy blade energy shot out. Shen Qingshan had no time to react and his left arm was cut off. However, no blood flowed out because the blood at the wound had been frozen.

Shen Qingshan endured the severe pain and shouted, "Ah bastard, I'm going to kill you." Then he raised his hand and saw a huge icy hand condensed with true energy grabbing towards Zhou Chen.

Zhou Chen quickly stopped and swung his sword, but a recoil force came from the icy soul and directly knocked him flying backwards.

At the same time, Shen Qingshan made a gesture with one hand and said, "Prepare to die." Then, a ferocious beast made of ice suddenly condensed in front of him and rushed towards him.

Seeing this, Zhou Chen condensed the Fengyun Sword and chopped it down with the thirty-five-meter-long ice sword, directly breaking it into pieces and turning it into countless cold air.

The cold air spread and the surrounding flowers, plants and trees froze instantly. Shen Qingshan looked at Zhou Chen and said, "Do you think you can defeat me with an ice weapon? That's ridiculous." Then he saw that his originally empty left arm had condensed into an arm with ice.

Shen Qingshan tried to clench his fist, then looked at Zhou Chen and said, "Prepare to die." Shen Qingshan's body suddenly grew and rushed towards Zhou Chen. Zhou Chen immediately activated the icy true qi, and at the same time, the true qi flowed throughout his body and swung his sword at Shen Qingshan who was rushing towards him.
