Chapter 538: 538
Sister-In-Law (3)
At this moment, even Sir Tie Jing himself felt like if he was trapped like this without weapons and douqi, he would not be able to get out .
If he felt that way, it was the same for everyone else .
However, Zhao Yarou disagreed . She felt like Ye Lang would still be able to escape . Even if it seemed impossible, he would still be able to hide .
Just as she guessed, Ye Lang started to move . He dodged everything so quickly that none of their nets touched him . Everyone was so shocked, even Sir Tie Jing widened his eyes .
He wasn’t only quick, he was also graceful like a dancing butterfly . He didn’t look like pathetic or desperate .
However, it was not easy for him . When Zhao Yarou’s special nets landed, the people behind him threw more . They had a lot in stock . He could dodge once, twice, thrice but how long could he last?
Even if he did not make a mistake, he would still exhaust himself . Plus, as he was dodging the nets, his enemies were inching closer, surrounding him .
He had to think of something to break their ranks .
He seemed to know what to do .
“Haargh!”
Ye Lang stomped the ground hard, the thick slab of stone exploded into pieces . These stone pieces flew at them, he was trying to make them back away .
However, this method was not effective . Zhao Yarou’s Tian formation not just wrapped around him, it blocked the dust and stones from getting out .
Ye Lang looked helpless inside . The people who cared about Ye Lang were worried, especially Ye Zhu’er .
As for Li Yue, she was worried too . Although she hated Ye Lang for lying, she did not want him to fall into Zhao Yarou’s hands .

A smile crept up the corners of Zhao Yarou’s lips . A smile of victory . Ye Lang was powerless in her chessboard, he was a sitting duck .
At this moment, there was more commotion . After stepping on one stone tile, he stepped on another one, then a few more .
Everyone thought he looked like a frustrated, helpless animal .
In the end, when he stomped on the last tile, he seemed to spring up into the sky . The guards around him were prepared to fight but not in the air like that .
Zhu Ye’er was secretly beaming . If Ye Lang could fly, as long as he flew out of the anti-magic formation’s area of influence, then he could utilise his alchemy skills to escape .
Up in the sky, it would be difficult to catch him . As long as he could fly out of here, he would be like a bird flying out of a cage– fly straight and never look back!
Flying up, huh? That’s suicide .
Zhao Yarou was secretly grinning . She knew Ye Lang could fly very far but it would be hard to fly out of the boundaries of her antimagic formation .
She had designed the game, how would she have forgotten the vertical space? She’d made her men expand the vertical axis of the antimagic boundary . No matter how high Ye Lang could leap, he would not be able to leap out of the formation .
At the time, she had made calculation according to his Qinggong martial arts abilities- she did not know what kind of ability it was called but she knew it was a special skill he had . To avoid accidentally underestimating him, she multiplied the height she’d seen him leap by three times to obtain the final boundary height .
Underneath Ye Lang, something that looked like a net was quickly expanding, as if telling him: if you fall in here, you’ll never get out .

At the same time, the same special nets were hurled at him from all directions . Ye Lang was a good target in the air, it was easier to catch him like that .
However, when he saw the nets flying at him, he did not look worried at all . Instead, he looked pleasantly surprised . Very soon, everyone would know why he was so happy .
If Zhao Yarou knew what was going to happy, she would’ve never told her men to throw stuff at him .
“Rise . ”
Ye Lang stepped on the items lightly, then shot higher up like an arrow .
“How is that possible? How could he use that as support? That’s very light, how could that provide any support?” Zhao Yarou and the rest stared in shock .
Usually, they would’ve said it was magic . But he was in an anti-magic zone, using magic was impossible .
No one could figure it out, they would never know because Ye Lang never told them how he did it .
It would be useless even if he did . How would anyone in this universe understand what Qinggong was?
Using these items as support, he could spring out of the anti-magic zone’s boundaries . Then he’d be able to do whatever he wanted .
If they hadn’t thrown stuff at him?
Simple, he was ready to take off his clothes, using them as stepping boards . They were great springboards, functioning like stepping stones as he flew upwards .
However, there was a disadvantage- he might be naked and that did not look cool at all .
But once he flew out of the boundary, he was sure he had many methods to increase his airtime, till he flew out of the palace .
Even if he could not fly out, he had many ways to hide, then slip out on his own .
But did he get what he wanted?
Ye Lang’s path to freedom was filled with obstacles . He noticed people also charging at him- these people were assigned by Zhao Yarou just in case this happened . They were stationed mid-air to guard against this move .
In the beginning, she thought this was unnecessary, they might not have to move at all . However, once she saw Ye Lang escape, she knew it was the smart thing to do . Being prepared was better than nothing .
When he saw them, Ye Lang couldn’t help but curse Zhao Yarou . What was her brain made of? To guard against even this, she was too meticulous!
That was perhaps how Zhao Yarou took the throne for herself too . And if it weren’t for Ye Lang, she would’ve been able to capture the entire Ye family .
Then her usurping of the throne would’ve been perfect .
“Fuck, an aerial battle? Well, I’m not afraid of you!”
Although there were guards here, he was not afraid . Ye Lang was confident in his aerial battle skills . He had Qinggong in his belt, of course he was!
These people immediately tried to force Ye Lang down, back into the anti-magic zone .
A huge net fell from the sky, about to swallow Ye Lang .
No matter how good his Qinggong was, it didn’t look like he had anywhere to run . There was nowhere to hide .
