Chapter 854: Chapter 848 Jin Zijin is Injured

Jin Zijin’s face was shrouded in gloom, blood gushing incessantly from his right hand.

Several sailors supported him and lifted his sleeve to bandage the wound. However, when they saw the wound, it startled them all.

The injury was not caused by a sharp blade; rather, it seemed as if the muscles on the arm had swelled and then burst open, leaving a ghastly and horrifying wound.

Who was that old man, and how could he possess such formidable power?

"General, are you alright?" Seeing Jin Zijin remaining motionless, the sailors were somewhat taken aback.

"Stop talking for now, let’s take the general back first and report this to General Che. We can’t handle this wound; we need to find a military doctor."

This night was destined to be restless.

Che Xiangyuan led a large number of soldiers to search everywhere near Fusang City. He even dispatched his most capable subordinate, Jie Zhongsen, to lead troops in the direction they mentioned.

Under orders to suppress bandits, Xiao Jinyan returned to the Divine Doctor Gu for help. He chased all the way to Fusang City by the East Sea, and finally found the person, but halfway there, a bizarre old man took him away and also injured another mysterious General Jin.

And that person, he guessed, was the highly favored Prince Qin by the emperor, closely guarded by him.

What should he do now?

"Search for me, check who has recently arrived in Fusang City. Interrogate all outsiders strictly," General Che stomped his foot in frustration.

He didn’t know the person was Yu Jizi, so he felt that no matter how powerful someone was, they couldn’t silently kill everyone at his docks and even force the skillful Xiao Jinyan into complete silence.

Of course, due to the rumors in Beijing about the Xiao Family, which said that the military ranks of the Xiao Family’s sons were all thanks to the deceased Crown Princess Consort, he personally despised the fact that Xiao Jinyan lost without a fight.

Thinking back to when Grand Tutor Xiao was alive, the Xiao Family was once spirited and bold; now they merely maintained superficial grandeur relying on some old affections of the young emperor, which was truly pitiful and lamentable.

The wound on Jin Zijin’s hand had been treated, and he immediately led a horse, ready to head out.

Xiao Jinyan was terrified and hurriedly stopped him, saying, "You can’t leave; the injury on your hand was caused by Inner Strength, which is no ordinary matter. You need at least half a month of recuperation; riding a horse now, do you not want your hand anymore?"

"But Youyou has been taken by him," Jin Zijin exclaimed loudly. "That kind of person, his mind is filled with twisted things. I don’t know what he will do to her; I can’t just sit here and heal."

"You still can’t joke about your arm like this. Let’s do this, you ride in a carriage and we’ll go back together to find Tian Jizi for help. That old freak is no longer human. We mortals can’t do anything in front of him. You didn’t see it; he walks faster than we ride horses. My Qinggong is barely able to keep up."

Xiao Jinyan was most skilled in Qinggong, but seeing Yu Jizi’s eerie movements, he began to despise his own Qinggong for the first time; compared to him, it was really nothing.

An old freak naturally requires another old freak to deal with him. He initially thought that Jin Zijin could hold Yu Jizi off for a long time, but didn’t expect him to be swiftly subdued.

Suddenly, Jin Zijin thought of something and turned his head to stare directly at Xiao Jinyan.

"What...what’s wrong?" Xiao Jinyan felt somewhat uneasy under his gaze.

Jin Zijin said, "Jin Ziyuan hasn’t returned yet. He should be coming back tomorrow with the fishermen. I’ll go back, and you continue to stay here. You must capture him and not let him fall into Yu Jizi’s hands."
