Seeing Chen Ke attack without warning, the four disciples couldn't hold back anymore.
They were genuine outlaws after all - how could they let someone beat them up?
What's more, the one fighting them was actually a crossdresser who loved wearing dresses...
If this got out, people in their circles would laugh them to death!
With Pig Monk's shout as a signal,
The "four disciples" raised their fists and charged forward, ready to teach Chen Ke a lesson.
Chen Ke naturally wasn't afraid, took his stance, and met their charge.
He knew his own capabilities well, and in his view, these four disciples posed no threat at all.
However, Chen Ke quickly realized the gravity of the situation.
He was wearing a floral long dress that reached his ankles to hide his leg hair... and the dress was seriously hampering his movement.
As a result, he couldn't utilize his fighting advantages at all.
Not only did he fail to quickly take down the "four disciples" as planned, but he even found himself at a disadvantage, taking several hits in succession.
Meanwhile,
The police officers waiting in hiding also heard the sounds of physical combat coming from Chen Ke's direction.
"They're fighting! Quick, help him! The tracker shows Chen Ke is about three hundred meters ahead!" Han Fei immediately called out while running towards the location shown on the tracker.
All the officers followed without hesitation.
Before they could reach the alley where Chen Ke had found the kidnappers, the "four disciples" who were fighting with Chen Ke heard the sound of multiple footsteps approaching.
In a place that should have been deserted, the sudden appearance of chaotic footsteps was not a good sign.
The "four disciples" immediately realized what was happening.
The person before them likely wasn't just a crossdresser - there was a ninety percent chance this was a police officer! Dressed up like this probably for an undercover operation!
"Damn! It's the cops, run!" Tang Monk was the first to react, shouting before turning to flee into the alley behind them.
The maze of alleys behind them was their escape route.
Their choice of location for their crimes was carefully planned - they had chosen this shantytown area in the old district that bordered the prosperous part of the city.
On one side of the street were towering buildings in a bustling area, while on this side were endless single-story houses and countless alleys.
The alleys were all interconnected, making it convenient for them to change their crime locations and especially convenient for escaping.
Moreover, being just one street away from the prosperous area meant there would always be people passing by, making it a perfect location for their crimes!
After Tang Monk disappeared into the pitch-black alley under cover of night, Sha Monk quickly followed, leaving the fight behind to escape.
After running a few steps, he turned back to look at his companions.
At this point, Pig Monk and Monkey King were still entangled with the cop, unable to break free.
The crossdressing cop in the floral dress they were fighting was incredibly skilled, so much so that even all four of them together couldn't gain much advantage.
If he just ran away now, Monkey King and Pig Monk would surely be caught by the police...
Of course, he wasn't purely concerned about his companions being caught.
He was mainly worried that if those two were caught, they might rat him out, and if that happened, wouldn't his escape be pointless?
Looking around, Sha Monk came up with a plan.
In the next second, he grabbed the dirty little crying girl and threw her towards an electric pole.
Before throwing her, he shouted: "Still fighting? Run!"
Seeing this, Pig Monk and Monkey King immediately understood Sha Monk's intention - he was helping them escape!
The two stopped fighting and turned to run.
In this situation, the cop would naturally have to save the girl first and wouldn't be able to continue pursuing them.
Though Sha Monk's tactic was dirty, it was indeed effective.
Chen Ke, who had been refusing to let the two escape, immediately abandoned the fight when he saw Sha Monk's action and turned his attention to the little girl.
He dashed to the side, leaped into the air, and caught the girl before her head could hit the electric pole.
Thanks to Chen Ke's action, the little girl was saved without injury, but Chen Ke wasn't so fortunate - after catching the girl, there was a loud thud as he crashed heavily to the ground.
"Ouch..." Chen Ke landed hard on his backside to save the girl, grimacing in pain as he drew in a sharp breath.
He wanted to get up and continue the pursuit, but it was too late.
The three had already escaped into the maze of alleys.
Just then, the police officers arrived.
"Are you alright? Are you hurt?" Han Fei asked Chen Ke.
"I'm fine, just landed on my bottom. Don't worry about me," Chen Ke shook his head. "There were four of them, all men, wearing masks of the four disciples - they're easy to recognize. The fat one has an injured leg and shouldn't be able to run fast. Quick, after them!"
Hearing this, the officers immediately gave chase without a word.
There weren't any street lights in the small alleys, and visibility was extremely low.
The officers had just rushed over from the well-lit street, and unlike the "four disciples" who had already adapted to the darkness, their eyes hadn't fully adjusted to the dark environment, making it impossible for them to see anything in the pitch-black surroundings.
However, Xu Mo was an exception.
His eyes had been enhanced by the system, and while his night vision wasn't as good as during the day, it was still far superior to that of ordinary people.
In the darkness, Xu Mo clearly saw someone wearing a Pig Monk mask limping to the end of the alley ahead and turning right.
"Right side, chase!" Xu Mo called out to the officers before pursuing.
The officers were confused: "???"
What right side?
They couldn't see anything at all!
After feeling their way along the walls for a while, the officers finally began to adapt to the darkness and could make out the path within about ten meters.
But by then, both Xu Mo and the "four disciples" described by Chen Ke had vanished from sight.
Only the echoing footsteps in the small alleys could still be faintly heard.
The fleeing "four disciples'" night vision capabilities were far inferior to Xu Mo's. Even though they had been in the dark alleys for a while and their eyes had adjusted to the darkness, they still couldn't match Xu Mo, especially since it was very late at night.
With their limited night vision and unable to use their phones for light, their escape efficiency was naturally low.
Particularly the fat one wearing the Pig Monk mask - his leg had been injured during the fight with Chen Ke, making him even slower with his limp.
As a result, they hadn't gotten far before Xu Mo caught up with them.
ey change clothes. Li Chuan contributed all his possessions, only to find that things were not as they seemed. Almost a year after joining, he hadn’t managed to get a single Daoist consort. Thinking he had been deceived, he was approached by a stunning senior fellow disciple who asked if he would like to form a spiritual bond. For those who don’t practice cultivation, they might not know what “forming a spiritual bond” is. Let me put it this way: A long-term relationship is called a “Daoist consort,” while a short-term relationship is known as “forming a spiritual bond.” From then on, Li Chuan discovered the true way to interact with the Yin-Yang Sect’s Daoist consorts. As long as he had enough spirit stones, he could form a spiritual bond with anyone, Whether it’s Senior Sisters, aunts, Daoist consorts of aunts, female elders, Daoist consorts of elders, or even the Daoist consort of the sect leader, anyone can form a spiritual bond as long as there are enough spirit stones.” I've already joined the Yin-Yang Sect, and you're telling me to focus on cultivation? Do you even know what the Yin-Yang Sect is all about?

d intelligence to keep the plot moving, and sometimes even the protagonists are forced into absurdly dumb decisions. Why does the A-list celebrity heroine in urban romance novels ditch the top-tier movie star and become a lovestruck fool for a pockmarked male lead? Why do the leads in historical tragedy novels keep dancing between love and death, only for the blind healer to end up suffering the most? And Gu Wei never expected that after finally landing a villain role to stir up trouble, she’d pick the wrong gender! No choice now—she’ll just have to crush the protagonists as a girl!
agon king storylines. At the start, I obtained the "Ultimate Lackey System" - the more I act as a lackey, the stronger I become. What else could I do? I chose to become the personal henchman of the ultimate villain, Su Muwan. I provoke all sorts of chosen ones, snatch away their opportunities, and commit every evil deed imaginable. You ask who's behind me? Hmph! You're not worthy of knowing my lady's name! ...... ....... I am Su Muwan, the eldest daughter of the Su family. Since childhood, I've possessed extraordinary talent in martial arts, which led to my arrogant and domineering personality in my past life. I was even foolish enough to repeatedly challenge those favored by heaven, ultimately resulting in a tragic death. In this life, I must behave and absolutely cannot walk the same path again!! However... SLAP!! "So you're the Dragon King, huh?!" When I saw my little lackey swagger over and viciously slap the Dragon King who was hiding his identity, I felt my heart sink. Su Muwan's suspended heart finally died as she watched Qin Luo, her utterly loyal lackey, standing before her. She fainted on the spot from shock. Heaven is determined to destroy me!!
