Chapter 528 The Changes at Mount Shura
"Mount Shura is just ahead."
Blood Rakshasa stood at the bow of the ship, pointed to a small island that was faintly visible ahead, and said to Meng Chuan.
Blood Rakshasa received a distress text message from her master and, without waiting for dawn, went to pry open Meng Chuan's door.
The situation was urgent, so Meng Chuan immediately summoned Prince Fu and, under the leadership of Blood Rakshasa, set sail.
Besides Meng Chuan, Prince Fu, and Ying Die, the Blood Rakshasa's warrior attendants also accompanied them.
She was a sixteen-year-old girl with an East Asian face.
She gave off the same cold and wooden feeling as when Meng Chuan first met Ying Die.
On the sea, the waves surged, and the ship's hull rose and fell with the waves.
The closer the ship got to the island, the heavier Meng Chuan's heart became.
After all, no one knows what the current situation is like at Mount Shura.
If the Thousand-Faced Asura were still in power, Meng Chuan's safety would naturally be assured.
But if it were a spider web, the outcome would be uncertain.
"Young Master, rest assured, as long as the Green Gang still exists, no one will dare to touch you easily."
Yingdie also noticed Meng Chuan's nervousness. She took Meng Chuan's hand and whispered.
Although Meng Chuan brought very few people with him this time.
However, everyone in the gang knew that Meng Chuan had gone to Mount Shura.
This is also why Prince Fu dared to take Meng Chuan there unattended.
Soon, as the cruise ship docked, we were already more than 500 kilometers away from the United States.
This is a deserted island, surrounded by the vast ocean.
Because the headquarters of the Thousand-Faced Asura Palace is located here, it is named Asura Island, and the mountain on the island is called Asura Mountain.
On the way here, Blood Rakshasa had mentioned that Shura Island, though seemingly deserted and covered in lush vegetation, actually had its mountains hollowed out.
Moreover, there are multiple secret passages that allow direct access to the sea.
Therefore, Blood Rakshasa specifically instructed that the operation to eliminate Spiderweb must be carried out with lightning speed, and that he must not be allowed to escape.
Led by Blood Rakshasa, the group embarked on a rugged mountain path.
The surroundings were completely silent, with only the occasional chirping of insects.
Yingdie walked beside Meng Chuan, her steps light yet cautious. She whispered a reminder to Meng Chuan:
"Young Master, there are many assassins lurking in the shadows nearby."
Yingdie was, after all, an assassin.
Although Meng Chuan didn't spot the assassins, Ying Die could vaguely sense that many eyes were watching them along the way.
Meng Chuan nodded slightly, his eyes revealing vigilance.
We arrived at the mountain gate.
Blood Rakshasa stopped Meng Chuan and the others, just as she was about to step forward and open the switch of the mountain gate.
Suddenly, a female assassin covered in blood rushed out.
Her face was pale, and her eyes showed anxiety and despair.
Yingdie and Fuwang immediately protected Meng Chuan in the middle.
"Holy Maiden, run! The spider web connects a large number of elders, and they are besieging the Palace Master."
As the female assassin spoke, she collapsed to the ground.
"Xiao Qing."
Blood Rakshasa clearly recognized the female assassin.
She exclaimed in surprise and went to help him up.
Just as Blood Rakshasa stepped forward, the female assassin, who had been on the verge of death, suddenly made her move.
The long sword in his hand pierced towards the throat of the Blood Rakshasa.
"Be careful, Holy Maiden."
The Blood Rakshasa's warrior attendant was furious.
However, she was farther away, and it was too late for her to come to her rescue.
Just when it seemed that Blood Rakshasa was about to die on the spot.
"call out!"
A whooshing sound suddenly rang out.
Immediately afterwards, everyone saw a cold light burst out.
It hit the female assassin directly in the throat.
The female assassin immediately collapsed to the ground.
Blood Rakshasa was also startled and broke out in a cold sweat. She turned around abruptly and realized that the person who had attacked her was Meng Chuan.
The reason Meng Chuan was able to act in time and save Xue Luosha was because
It was because just as the female assassin appeared, Prince Fu whispered in Meng Chuan's ear:
"Something's fishy. The female assassin isn't injured."
Although the female assassin looked quite miserable, covered in blood, she looked very realistic.
But her breathing and footsteps were steady; how could they possibly fool a seasoned veteran like Prince Fu?
This was also because the female assassin was too impatient.
Before Meng Chuan could even warn Blood Rakshasa, the female assassin made her move.
Meng Chuan simply shot her dead with a single, powerful shot.
At this moment, a complex emotion flashed in Blood Rakshasa's eyes as she looked at Meng Chuan.
However, it quickly returned to its cold state.
"Saint, are you okay?"
The attendant finally realized what was happening and hurriedly stepped forward to check on Blood Rakshasa's injuries.
After confirming that Blood Rakshasa was unharmed, she turned and bowed to Meng Chuan:
"Thank you so much, Young Master of the Green Gang, for saving my Holy Maiden. Little Flower kowtows to you."
The servant said he was going to kneel down before Meng Chuan.
"No need to kowtow, just help me pull out that throwing knife and wipe the blood off."
Meng Chuan said calmly.
Meng Chuan was truly unaccustomed to the bad habit of kowtowing at the drop of a hat.
"it is good!"
Xiao Hua immediately pulled out the throwing knife, carefully wiped it clean, and respectfully handed it to Meng Chuan with both hands.
"It seems the situation on this island is more complicated than we imagined. Blood Rakshasa, what are you planning to do? Just charge in like this?"
Meng Chuan sheathed his flying knife and asked Blood Rakshasa.
"I don't know how my master is doing. I have to break in."
Blood Rakshasa's eyes were brimming with murderous intent.
However, Meng Chuan saw deep anxiety and confusion in her eyes.
"Blood Rakshasa, let me remind you, this is an internal matter of your Thousand Faces Asura Palace. The situation is unclear, and our young master will not accompany you to your death."
Yingdie held Meng Chuan's hand tightly and warned Xue Luosha.
Yingdie didn't care whether Xue Luocha's master was dead or alive.
All she needed to do was ensure Meng Chuan's personal safety.
Blood Rakshasa opened her mouth, looking at Meng Chuan with pleading eyes.
The only one who can help her is Meng Chuan. If Meng Chuan stands idly by, it will be impossible for her and her martial attendant Xiao Hua to resist the spider web and save her master.
"I……"
Meng Chuan was about to speak when he realized he was genuinely soft-hearted.
Besides, Blood Rakshasa is Shadow Butterfly's older sister, and Meng Chuan has already agreed to marry her.
How could Meng Chuan not help?
However, Meng Chuan had not yet spoken.
Suddenly, a large number of assassins in black emerged from all directions and surrounded them.
The assassins had icy eyes, filled with murderous intent, and the weapons in their hands gleamed coldly in the sunlight.
“That’s right, this is an internal matter of my Thousand Faces Asura Hall. There’s no need for the young master of the Green Gang to drag himself into it.”
A loud laugh rang out.
Immediately afterwards, a spider web appeared with a smug look on its face.
"Blood Rakshasa, it would have been better if you hadn't come back. Why did you have to rush back to your death?"
“Your master has been trapped in the Thousand Machines Palace. Although I can’t break in, I’ve captured you. I think that old man will be willing to come out.”
A dozen or so elders followed behind the spider web.
Most of these people are foreigners, and they are the backbone of the Thousand-Faced Asura Hall.
"Spiderweb, if it weren't for my master taking you in back then, where would you be today?"
Blood Rakshasa glared at the spider web, then addressed the elders behind it:
"And you too, most of you were trained by my master. If you turn back now and help me kill the Spider Web, I, as the Holy Maiden, promise you that I will forgive and forget your past actions!"
