Huo Guanying, Ye Caolong, Xiao Qiyang, and the others all shook their heads, indicating that they did not know.

Zhang Yang took out his walkie-talkie and shouted, "This is Zhang Yang. I heard gunshots. Who is firing?"

A response came immediately from the walkie-talkie: "Reporting to Commander Zhang Yang, we also heard gunshots. We just checked, and none of our men fired. Moreover, the gunshots seem to be coming from Yuhuangding."

Jade Emperor Peak?!

Zhang Yanqing and the others immediately became anxious.

The Jade Emperor Peak has already been cleared out.

Logically speaking, only Chen Yun and Onizuka Ryu should be fighting up there right now.

How could there be gunshots?

Zhang Yanqing said anxiously, "Something's wrong, let's go up and take a look!"

Ye Caolong hesitated for a moment: "Chen Yun said that apart from him and Guizhonglong, no one else is allowed to enter the South Heavenly Gate or set foot on the Jade Emperor Peak. We don't know the situation. If we go up there rashly, will it disturb their duel?"

Zhang Yanqing said, "It's precisely because we heard gunshots from up above and didn't know what was going on that we had to go up and see what was happening!"

Di Ting and the others thought Zhang Yanqing was right and agreed with his opinion, saying they wanted to go up and see what was going on.

The expressions of the Japanese, including Amu, and the Westerners standing nearby subtly changed when they heard the gunshots.

They knew that Onizuka Ryu had probably lost.

The gunshots that rang out probably meant that the top mercenaries and assassins from the West, who were lurking in Mount Tai, had begun their hunt for Chen Yun.

Seeing that Zhang Yanqing and his group were about to enter the South Heavenly Gate, Amu and the others climbed to the Jade Emperor Peak to find out what was going on.

They exchanged glances, then stepped forward to block Zhang Yanqing and the others' path.

Amu deliberately shouted loudly, "Lord Onizuka Ryu and Chen Yun had a duel, and it was agreed that only the one who came out alive would win. Now that Lord Onizuka Ryu and Chen Yun haven't come out, what are you people doing going in there?"

"Could it be that you knew Chen Yun was about to lose, and you found an excuse to break in and help Chen Yun deal with our Lord Onizuka Ryu?"

"We can't let you in and wreak havoc on our Lord Onizuka Ryu!"

Zhang Yanqing angrily retorted, "What nonsense are you spouting? Didn't you hear gunshots coming from Jade Emperor Peak? Something's not right!"

Amu sneered: "We don't care about the gunshots or cannon shots. The fact that Lord Onizuka Ryu and Chen Yun haven't come out means that their duel is not over yet, and no one can go in and interfere."

"If you force your way in, that's cheating."

"Not only will we not acknowledge the outcome of the duel, but you will also bear full responsibility for any harm done to Lord Onizuka Ryu."

Amu's companions, along with the Westerners, all echoed his sentiments.

Even the reporters they brought took the opportunity to keep taking pictures.

Zhang Yanqing's face was ashen, her eyes burning with fury. If it weren't for the presence of countless foreign reporters, she would have loved to slap Amu away right now!

Because they were unclear about the situation at Jade Emperor Peak and could not be 100% certain that the gunshots came from there, Zhang Yanqing and the others could not directly break into the South Heavenly Gate and go to Jade Emperor Peak to investigate.

Zhang Yang also whispered to Zhang Yanqing, "If we force our way in, these guys will definitely accuse us of cheating. Even if Chen Yun wins, they will use that as an excuse to refuse to admit the result."

"Why don't we report the situation to our superiors and ask them to make a decision?"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Yanqing suddenly remembered that her father and Elder Qin were probably using satellite monitoring to watch the battle between Chen Yun and Guizhonglong at Yuhuangding in real time.

So she immediately took out her phone and called her father.

...

at the same time.

Jade Emperor Peak.

More and more top mercenaries and assassins are appearing on the mountaintop using methods such as rock climbing.

It's unclear whether it's because the Dragon Kingdom has strict gun control, making it difficult for these guys to obtain firearms upon entering the country, or whether they felt that using firearms would attract the attention of the soldiers stationed at Mount Tai.

The mercenaries and assassins who appeared later did not use firearms, but instead used cold weapons such as swords and daggers.

Once they reached the mountaintop, these guys immediately locked onto Chen Yun and charged at him like moths to a flame.

Chen Yun had just pulled his dagger from the head of the Hell Lion Pride leader when he suddenly noticed a large number of assassins appearing around him. His eyes grew even colder: "You're courting death!"

After speaking, he sheathed his dagger and put his sword back in its sheath at his waist. Then he picked up a submachine gun from the ground, raised his hand, and fired a shot that shattered the head of an approaching assassin.

He then raised his gun with one hand and began firing at the approaching assassins.

Bang bang bang...

One by one, the assassins fell to the ground.

Dozens of bullets were used up.

There were already a pile of corpses around.

However, Chen Yun's arm, which was infected with the blood poison, had become even more numb, and he even started to feel dizzy.

This is a sign that the toxins are starting to take effect!

We can't stay here any longer.

Chen Yun threw away the submachine gun that was out of bullets and strode towards the South Heavenly Gate.

But they hadn't gone very far.

Several more figures appeared around them.

This time, a woman in red appeared, along with five ninjas wielding samurai swords.

"superior!"

Upon seeing Chen Yun, the woman in red ordered her five ninjas to attack.

Five ninjas immediately pounced on Chen Yun.

Normally, killing these ninjas would be as easy for Chen Yun as slaughtering chickens and dogs.

But now he is poisoned by blood, one of his arms is starting to go numb, and his consciousness is gradually becoming muddled.

Their combat effectiveness has been greatly reduced.

Even so, Chen Yun drew his sword, blocked a series of attacks from several ninjas, and then seized the opportunity to swiftly cut down the ninjas with a few quick strokes.

But just as he was cutting down several ninjas...

The woman in red suddenly raised her hand and threw a hidden weapon.

The hidden weapon whistled as it flew towards his face.

He instinctively raised his knife and slashed out.

Boom!

The blade struck the hidden weapon, causing it to explode and release a cloud of pink smoke.

On a normal day, Chen Yun could easily avoid the smoke.

But now that it's been poisoned by blood, its reaction is a bit slower, and when it tries to dodge, it still inevitably inhales a little bit of pink smoke.

Seeing this, the woman in red laughed triumphantly: "Haha, you've been poisoned by my Three-Tailed Jade-Faced Fox's bewitching smoke. You won't be able to walk more than a few steps before you lose consciousness and collapse..."

She hadn't finished speaking.

A blur before my eyes.

Chen Yun appeared before her like a ghost, reached out his left hand and grabbed her throat, coldly saying, "Can't take a few steps? I'm already standing in front of you!"

"I'll give you two choices: either hand over the antidote, or I'll send you on your way."

The Japanese woman, who called herself the Three-Tailed Jade-Faced Fox, was filled with terror. Chen Yun was gripping her throat, and she could only manage to say with difficulty, "There... there is no antidote. Anyone poisoned by my aphrodisiac will slowly lose consciousness and fall into a coma. Only by... having intercourse with a woman can the poison be neutralized... Please, let me go..."

She hadn't finished speaking.

Chen Yun clenched his fist and crushed her neck with a snap.

Bang!

Chen Yun threw the woman to the ground like a dead dog.

We've really messed up tonight!

Because of carelessness, he was poisoned by Onizuka Ryu's blood, which led to a series of problems, and now he has also been poisoned by Enchanting Smoke.

One wrong move and the whole game is lost!

Chen Yun forcibly suppressed the blood poison and alluring smoke within his body, quickened his pace, and headed towards the South Heavenly Gate.

Along the way, assassins and mercenaries continued to rush out.

But he was already in a killing frenzy. When he saw someone approaching, he acted on his fighting instincts and slashed them down.

As we walked down from Jade Emperor Peak to South Heaven Gate, the corpses of assassins and mercenaries were piled up along the way.

Nantianmen (South Heaven Gate)

Zhang Yanqing dialed her father's number, but before she could speak, she heard him anxiously say, "I was just about to call you. Chen Yun has defeated Guizhonglong at Jade Emperor Peak, but he's being attacked by a large number of assassins. You need to hurry up and rescue him..."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Yanqing's expression changed drastically. He hung up the phone and was about to kick away Amu, who was blocking his way, in preparation for leading Zhang Yang and the others to the Jade Emperor Peak to rescue Chen Yun.

But then, Shu Lingyue's joyful voice rang out: "He's down! Chen Yun is down! Chen Yun won!"

Upon hearing this, the expressions of the people present changed, and they all looked towards the direction of Jade Emperor Peak.

A figure was seen striding down from the Jade Emperor Peak; it was Chen Yun!
