The person was wearing a hooded black robe, and his face could not be seen clearly. It was obvious that he did not want to reveal his identity.
Dong Qing recognized at a glance that it was Yan Li's other accomplice in the Returning Moon Tower. He could not help but smile, "Good, good. Saves me the trouble of looking for you!"
Yan Li raised his head and said with a smile, "You're only here now. Aren't you a little too incompetent as a guard?"
Tang Sanghua snorted, "It's good enough that I came to save you, and you still dare to complain. Can you still move? If you can, run by yourself. "
At this time, Yan Li was not seriously injured, except that his physical strength was almost exhausted. Compared to Mu Dongfeng's strike, Dong Qing's strike was received when he was fully focused on defense, so it was only an external wound.
He knew that if he stayed, he would be a burden. Without hesitation, he rushed toward the human wall on the right.
"Want to run? Not so easy! "
Dong Qing's robe billowed, and he moved his blade to the left. His toes touched the ground, and he slashed in a semicircle.
The terrifying yuan qi tore through the void, and a temporary fault appeared in the air, extending toward Yan Li and Tang Sanghua.
"If this person dies, I will be very distressed."
Tang Sanghua's wrist turned, and his body was like a butterfly. The curved blade danced in a wavy curve, and in the midst of clanging sounds, it hit the zhanmadao from different angles.
Dong Qing's move was powerful, and it was difficult for him to change direction. After being hit by Tang Sanghua, the angle deviated too much, and he did not even touch the corner of Yan Li's clothes.
"Master Dong, what's so good about that stinky man that you have to chase after him." Tang Sanghua smiled.
Seeing that Yan Li had broken through the human wall, Dong Qing's face was cold, "You are seeking death!"
"Oh, I am so scared." Tang Sanghua held the curved blade in a reverse grip. Not only was he not afraid, but he was also eager to try.
Dong Qing stood expressionlessly, holding the zhanmadao diagonally. The white yuan qi that lingered around his body suddenly turned black, and with a very fast speed, a rotten smell spread in all directions.
"So smelly, this is …"
Tang Sanghua's expression suddenly changed and he cried out involuntarily, "The Black Heavenly King Saber Technique! So the reason you killed the criminals was to practice this saber technique … "
Dong Qing stared at him coldly, like a bloodthirsty beast staring at its prey. "Limitless Dried Bones …"
He calmly raised his saber. "Prison Destroyer, Heaven's Bones …"
His eyes became lifeless, as cold as a dead man's.
The stench of decay in the surroundings formed a black fog visible to the naked eye, which turned into a cage-like prison that tightly sealed Tang Sanghua's aura.
Once a cultivator's aura was locked on, it was impossible to dodge in a short period of time.
Tang Sanghua's expression froze. The yuan qi in her body surged wildly. She opened her mouth slightly, "Sky Silkworm, Mulberry Flower Mirror Image …"
Instead of retreating, Dong Qing moved forward. The scimitar shone brightly, and in the blink of an eye, several identical figures flashed out, attacking Dong Qing from several different angles.
Dong Qing closed his eyes. At this time, his moves had already locked on to Tang Sanghua, and the naked eye would instead affect his judgment.
In the chaotic sounds of sharp weapons clashing, the saber light shot out in all directions. The naked eye could not see the confrontation between the two. In almost the blink of an eye, they had exchanged several moves, and then each turned into a black and white light that crossed each other.
Dong Qing's face had a bloody mark. He frowned and said, "Creating a supreme technique at this age, who is your master?"
Tang Sanghua slowly straightened her body with her back to Dong Qing. She did not turn around, but only glanced at him from the corner of her eye. She said, "Where I come from, we have to learn to hunt independently from a young age. What supreme technique is just a guarantee of survival."
The so-called supreme technique was a technique that was unique to cultivators when they condensed their momentum to the extreme and released it on the spiritual level, finally affecting reality.
The formation of supreme techniques varied according to each cultivator's understanding of cultivation, so there were many types and varieties. The most common were bladesmanship and swordsmanship, while supreme techniques like Tang Sanghua's were the rarest. It was a combination of illusory techniques and physical movements. Not to mention creating it, even if the method was placed in front of him, he would not necessarily be able to cultivate it.
The fastest way to master supreme techniques was, of course, to directly practice the supreme techniques of famous masters. For example, Dong Qing's "Great Black Heavenly King Bladesmanship" was one of the early bladesmanship created by the Great Black Heavenly King. It was said that the person who practiced it had to give his soul to the devil and use the vitality of living creatures to cultivate. Therefore, those who practiced this bladesmanship were all cruel and bloodthirsty butchers.
After Tang Sanghua finished speaking, she chased after Yan Li.
But after a few steps, she spat out a large mouthful of blood.
The gap between the third and second ranks was not small. In this duel, she suffered at least two internal injuries, but it also increased the distance between them.
Since the soldiers on the periphery were chasing after Yan Li, there were no obstacles on her way.
Dong Qing did not seem to be anxious. He only smiled coldly and chased after her unhurriedly.
…
Yan Li kicked away a soldier who risked his life to launch a surprise attack. He landed on the ground and panted heavily. Even though he was experienced in battles, his physical strength and vitality had been depleted to a limit.
At this moment, a beautiful figure broke into the crowd from behind. She killed left and right, creating a bloody path, and came to Yan Li's side.
As Yan Li ran, he cast a sidelong glance at her and said, "Useless Protector, you can't even take care of a mere second rank martial artist, and you were even beaten like a stray dog. What use do I have you?"
Tang Sanghua almost cursed out loud. He said angrily, "What do you mean by a mere second rank martial artist? Let me see you take care of him? Do you know what kind of swordsmanship he cultivates … Fortunately, that swordsmanship cannot be abused, otherwise you would have died a hundred times over. "
"Ahem," Yan Li turned his face away and said seriously, "Run faster. If we run into that alley, we'll have a way to escape."
But just as the two of them approached the alley, a cold laugh came from inside. "Didn't anyone warn you that this road is blocked?"
As soon as the voice died away, a black tide of people surged out. Looking at their clothes, they were the constables and bailiffs of the capital governor's office.
Looking at the momentum, there were at least a few hundred people.
"The capital governor's office is blocking the road in front, and the Supreme Court is chasing after us relentlessly. A mere fifth rank martial artist is quite impressive." Yan Shaoqun followed behind Yu Xingzhi and slowly walked out of the crowd.
Yan Li and Dong Qing were forced to stop and look around. Sure enough, they were surrounded tightly.
Tang Sanghua rolled his eyes and said, "What bad luck. If I knew you were such an unlucky star, I wouldn't have made a deal with you …"
Yan Li smiled and said, "Isn't it too late to regret it now?"
Seeing his hateful smile, Tang Sanghua was furious and scolded, "You heartless bastard. You're still in the mood to smile at a time like this!"
Yan Li spread his hands and said, "Life is short. We should enjoy ourselves while we can. Besides, even if you cry for your parents, they won't let you go. "
"Hmph!" Tang Sanghua said coldly, "Their target is you. I just have to abandon you and run away. Besides, I've already saved you once, so I'm worthy of your silver. If you die, don't blame me for not keeping my promise."
"That's the choice of a smart person." Yu Xingzhi smiled and said, "How about it, young lady? Are you interested in working under this official? With your skills, this official will definitely not treat you badly."
Tang Sanghua rolled her eyes and said with a natural charm, "Milord, you won't deceive me, will you?"
"You're in a hurry to recruit talents. This seat doesn't care." Dong Qing also arrived at this time and said coldly, "Let's get down to business first, lest a long night brings trouble."
Yu Xingzhi sneered and said, "You just laughed at me for being a coward, but it turns out that Lord Dong is also a coward."
"Allow me to interrupt." The corners of Yan Li's mouth rose slightly. "Do you really think I'm a fish on the chopping block? The most difficult part of an enemy to deal with is their endless entanglements. If you can't kill me this time, the next time will be the day of your death. "
Yu Xingzhi waved his hand and shouted, "You're still so stubborn even at death's door. All of you, go! Whoever cuts off his head will be rewarded with a thousand taels of gold!"
At the same time, Dong Qing also raised his hand and signaled the experts from the two main offices of Yongling to charge at a fifth-level martial artist.
Tang Sanghua struggled internally. Even now, she could still escape unscathed by herself, but if she brought Yan Li with her, it would be impossible to escape.
And Yan Li's behavior didn't seem like he'd used up all his cards and was waiting for death. She was hesitating about whether or not to gamble one last time.
Just as she was in a dilemma, a burly figure arrived first despite moving later. In the blink of an eye, he passed through the crowd and came near the two.
Tang Sanghua was startled and had just taken a defensive stance when Yan Li said, "If you'd come a bit later, you'd have been collecting my corpse!"
One of our own?
The burly figure came to Yan Li's side and said expressionlessly, "Not bad."
Yan Li sighed. "I knew that you'd all be eyeing my position and wanting to replace me at any time."
"Who goes there!"
From the moment the burly figure appeared, Dong Qing and Yu Xingzhi's expressions changed. The higher one's strength, the more they could feel the terror of a high mountain.
However, both of them were experts in creating terror, so they wouldn't be frightened by this little terror.
Before the shout died away, the two of them had already rushed forward.
The burly figure didn't even look at the two of them. He raised his fist and smashed it heavily on the ground.
Boom!
A huge amount of Qi of vitality hit the ground, and the aftermath mixed with the dust and surged like a tide. Vision was suddenly blocked.
When Dong Qing and Yu Xingzhi caught up, Yan Li and his men were nowhere to be seen.
"Search! Even if we have to dig three feet underground, we have to find their whereabouts … "
…
Guiyi Lane.
In the inner room of the unopened wine shop, Mr. Yu was tied to a chair. The dim oil lamp shone on his old face that was full of black spots.
"Anyway, I've already been caught by you. Kill me or torture me, as you wish …" he said with a dark face.
Yan Li sat opposite him and said with a smile, "Mr. Yu, with our friendship, do you think I'd really make things difficult for you?"
Tang Sanghua had a strange look in his eyes. He was getting more and more curious about his identity.
Mr. Yu scolded angrily, "You sly and cunning boy, don't try to fool me with nice words. Which one of you Yanshan Robber is soft-hearted?"
