Chapter 4: The Chamber of Commerce is Destroyed

"Don't worry, I will give you an answer whether I have seen him or not." After Tian Ziru finished speaking, he dismounted, lifted the reins, and rode away.

Nangong Xiaoyun watched Tian Ziru go away, then turned to Nangong Yunyao and said, "Master, do we need to follow him to prevent any accidents?"

Nangong Yunyao shook his head, his eyes deep: "No need. The reputation of the Three Wolves of the Prairie is known to all, and they are not easy to deal with. We can't fall into their ambush again."

Nangong Xiaoyun secretly admired him in his heart: "The master is very cautious in his actions, which is beyond the reach of ordinary people."

Soon, four figures emerged from the jungle, running towards them. They were not riding horses, but they were as fast as galloping horses. In a blink of an eye, they were close to him and stopped four meters away.

The first person to arrive was Tian Ziru. He clasped his fists from a distance and said, "Brother Nangong, our legion commander has arrived. If your commander has anything to say, you can come forward and say it."

Nangong Xiaoyun looked up and saw three people standing side by side on the snow four feet away.

The man in the middle was wearing silver armor, with a long sword hanging from his waist. The scabbard was engraved with exquisite patterns. He was obviously a person of high status and power. On either side of him stood a guard, also wearing armor, but slightly more low-key than the man in the middle. Nangong Xiaoyun clasped his fists and stepped forward, saying loudly: "The head of the family, Nangong Yunyao, is interested in visiting your army commander to discuss something."

The man in the middle slowly took off his helmet, revealing a resolute face. He glanced at Nangong Xiaoyun with a sharp gaze and said in a deep voice: "I am the commander of the Three Wolves of the Prairie, Iron Curtain Shock.

What can the head of the Nangong family do for you? "Nangong Xiaoyun felt the powerful aura emanating from Tiemu Zhen, and was secretly alert in his heart, but he remained calm on the surface: "The head of the family hopes to have a face-to-face discussion with the legion commander to resolve the misunderstanding between the two sides."

Tiemuzhen sneered, "Misunderstanding? The golden signboard of Yunyi Chamber of Commerce is something that I, the Three Wolves of the Grassland, dare not touch lightly. However, since Patriarch Nangong has such a refined taste, I, Tiemuzhen, am not an unreasonable person. Please invite Patriarch Nangong to come forward and talk."

Nangong Xiaoyun was delighted and turned back to signal Nangong Yunyao. Nangong Yunyao slowly stepped forward, his steps were steady, and every step seemed unhurried. He came in front of Tiemu Zhen, and the two stood opposite each other, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense.

Nangong Yunyao clasped his fists and said, "I have heard of the reputation of the Three Wolves of the Grassland for a long time. It is a great honor to meet the commander of the Iron Curtain Army today."

Tiemu Zhen also clasped his fists in return: "Master Nangong, you are too polite. I wonder what you are doing today?"

Nangong Yunyao looked directly into Tiemuzhen's eyes and said in a deep voice, "My Yunyi Chamber of Commerce has always kept its distance from your army. Why are you intercepting our caravan today?"

Tiemu Zhen smiled slightly: "Master Nangong should know why the wolves on the grassland chased the caravan. We are just following the laws of the grassland, the strong survive."

Nangong Yunyao's face darkened: "The goods of Yunyi Chamber of Commerce are not easy to obtain. This cargo is neither jewelry, gold, silver, nor valuable paintings or antiques..."

The battle was about to break out. A fierce light flashed in the eyes of the leader of the Three Wolves of the Prairie. He waved his hand, and the bandits behind him immediately rushed down.

Nangong Yunyao and the others did not show any weakness and went forward to fight. A fierce battle began. During the battle, Li Mocheng's meteor hammer exerted great power, knocking down a group of enemies with every swing.

Wang Chengshan relied on his wisdom and skillfully commanded the guards of the caravan, ensuring that the caravan always maintained a tight defense.

Nangong Yunyao's "Returning Sword" is like the scythe of the god of death, and every time he strikes, he can take away the life of an enemy.

Nangong Yunyao fought hard against the invasion of the "Three Wolves of the Prairie". At this time, Lord Chen urgently summoned him to the carriage. The atmosphere in the carriage was solemn. Lord Chen slowly spoke: "Master Nangong, I heard that your Chamber of Commerce has been operating for more than ten years and has never encountered such a change. Therefore, I rejected the court's suggestion to send troops to escort..."

Nangong Yunyao said anxiously, "Master Chen, this incident is indeed unexpected. The other party's whereabouts are erratic and he has never been active in this area, but my Nangong family will do our best to ensure Master Chen's safety!"

Lord Chen smiled calmly, "It has already happened, and there is no point in blaming you. I have been an official for half my life, and I have done things with a clear conscience."

Nangong Yunyao pondered for a moment and said slowly: "As far as I know, their purpose of this trip is not just to rob goods."

A glimmer of enlightenment flashed in Lord Chen's eyes. He took out a white bundle from under the bed and said softly, "I know their true purpose. If your Chamber of Commerce's defense line is difficult to hold, you, Master Nangong, must use your own ability to escape from the chaotic army. The contents of this bundle are very important. You must personally deliver it to Frostwolf City and present it to the city lord."

Nangong Yunyao took the bundle with a serious expression, and gently weighed the item in his hand with a hint of doubt in his eyes. The texture that did not seem like jewelry made him curious.

He asked Lord Chen, "May I ask, sir, what is in this bundle? Do you know the true intentions of the person inside?"

Lord Chen looked solemn and replied in a steady tone: "Brother Yunyao, rest assured that the things in this bundle are definitely not illegal or prohibited items. If they violated the ban, how could I dare to entrust Brother Yunyao to deliver it to the Lord of Frostwolf City?"

Nangong Yunyao nodded, knowing that it was useless to ask further, and turned his attention to the outside of the carriage. Suddenly, screams came one after another, and something unexpected happened.

He quickly put on his bag, jumped out of the carriage, and first sent out three golden explosive talismans, directly attacking the "Three Wolves of the Prairie".

He shouted at the warriors who were surrounding him, not wanting them to die in vain. However, when he was about to leave again, he was stopped by the leader of the three grassland wolves.

Nangong Yunyao knew that the situation today was irreversible. He was sad, and an indomitable fighting spirit surged in his heart. This was the first setback in his ten-year career in the underworld, which inspired him to be more determined.

Tiemuzhen sneered and taunted: "Nangong Yunyao, do you think you can escape?" Then, he used the nine-ring broadsword in his hand to "slash the soul", and his body flew up with the sword light, chasing after him. Nangong Yunyao saw that the opponent was coming fiercely, so he returned his sword and "danced back to the origin", defending and attacking. With a deafening collision sound, the weapons of the two collided in the air, and in the flash of swords, both sides were shaken from the air by the power of the other party.

When he landed, the iron hand that was shaken by the iron curtain suddenly swung, and two green lights shot directly at Nangong Yunyao. It turned out that there were tiny poisonous spikes hidden in his weapon, which were controlled and fired by the index finger mechanism. The two were very close, and Nangong Yunyao was unable to dodge, and was shot in the left arm by the poisonous spikes.

Nangong Yunyao only felt a numbness in the wound, knowing that the hidden weapon was extremely poisonous, and he could not help but feel angry: "Humph, the three wolves of the grassland are so despicable, using hidden weapons and poisoning them!"

Tiemu Zhen responded coldly: "The poison on this poison nail is my own secret recipe. It will kill you within a day. You can't move now, let alone resist."
