Urban Martial Saint

The Seven Kills Formation of the Kill Gate, no one knows its exact origin, it was passed down by the Sect Master of the Kill Gate, the Bloody Monk. The Seven Kills Formation must be performed collectively by the Killing Gate Seven Hidden, each standing in their specific positions, to unleash its power.

The extent of the power of the Seven Kills Formation is unknown to anyone. However, when the Bloody Monk taught the Seven Kills Formation, he once said that once the formation is set, no matter if you are a peak master or have thousands of troops, once trapped within this formation, do not dream of escaping. Although it is unclear whether there is exaggeration in the Bloody Monk’s words, the fact that the Bloody Monk, with his abilities, held the Seven Kills Formation in such high regard also shows the power of this formation.

At least, using the Seven Kills Formation to deal with people like Wang Tian’an should not be difficult!

Chen San watched Wang Tian’an with a faint smile, feeling exceptionally relaxed at this moment. He had planned to fight desperately tonight before coming, but everything had changed so unexpectedly. The original disadvantage turned directly into the current advantage. Ye Qing’s plan was truly unfathomable and admiring.

Wang Tian’an, however, frowned deeply. He was well aware of the consequences once the Seven Kills Formation was deployed. He stared intently at the Netherworld Scholar who was slowly walking in, and said in a deep voice: ”Netherworld Scholar, have you really decided to help the people from the Kill Gate? Don’t forget, those people from the Kill Gate can’t wait to kill you right after. And that Ye Qing, he has always wanted to kill you too. Cooperating with them will definitely not end well for you, it would be better to cooperate with me. As long as the Chen Family siblings are killed, no one in the Southern Six Provinces can stop me. When that happens, I will hand over the entire Eastern Province to you, allowing you to become the king of this land. What can the Kill Gate and Ye Qing give you? After using you, they will only kill you!”

”Wang Tian’an, don’t waste your breath here,” Ghost King Li Ruoyuan sneered: ”We have already negotiated with the Netherworld Scholar, as long as he comes back to help us deal with you, then he is still one of us from the Kill Gate. Everything from the past can be wiped clean, no more pursuing. As for you, pfft, cooperating with you? That would be truly blind. Look at the people around you, every single one is controlled by your poison, Wang Tian’an, do you really think we are fools? The last time we went to Xihang Shen Family Manor, you were ready to kill us, who would believe you!”

Wang Tian’an’s expression slightly changed, he opened his mouth but ultimately, he couldn’t speak. These past incidents had already eroded his credibility to an all-time low, saying anything more would no longer be believed.

”Humph, do you really think a mere Seven Kills Formation can stop so many of us?” Wang Tian’an said harshly, unable to sway the Netherworld Scholar, he could only try to intimidate these people.

”Will it stop them, or will it not, we’ll find out when we fight,” Cui Yu said: ”Moreover, we don’t need to stop so many people. We just need to hold off half of you, and tonight the victory will be ours. As for holding off half of you, it shouldn’t be difficult at all!”

”Enough, why waste words on him, kill this bastard!” Black Asura shouted loudly, and the other members of the Kill Gate also stepped forward, taking their respective positions to set up the Seven Kills Formation.

Seeing this, Wang Tian’an’s frown deepened, he gritted his teeth and, with a fierce wave of his hand, said: ”Retreat!”

Others might not know the power of the Seven Kills Formation, but Wang Tian’an was most aware of it. He also knew the origin of the Seven Kills Formation. According to his master, Ning Qianshu, said that the Seven Kills Formation was actually brought out from the Gate of Life by Divine Doctor An Shiping, a rare formation inherited from the extraordinary and saintly Guiguzi from the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods. Once this formation is deployed, it really has the potential to withstand thousands of troops. Although the strength of the Killing Gate Seven Hidden was not up to par, using this Seven Kills Formation to hold off sixty to seventy of Wang Tian’an’s men was still feasible.

Wang Tian’an knew well that if the people from the Kill Gate stopped sixty to seventy of his men, his side would have fewer people than Chen San’s side. If they really started fighting, his side would definitely suffer. Given the hatred Ye Qing and Chen San had for him, whether he could escape with his life tonight was an uncertainty, so he naturally dared not continue the fight and decided to flee on the spot.

Everyone was astounded; they originally thought Wang Tian’an would fight to the end, but Wang Tian’an actually uttered such a word. In the astonishment of the crowd, Wang Tian’an had already taken the lead in running away, and his subordinates also came back to their senses and hurriedly followed him out.

Those guarding the school gate still wanted to stop them, but seeing that more people were coming, where could they stop them? They could only let them run out. However, with only so many doors, over a hundred people running out at once was indeed a bit too crowded; Wang Tian’an’s men were momentarily all squeezed at the gate.

Seeing this situation, Chen San was also startled, and quickly turned his head to look at Ye Qing.

”Kill!” Ye Qing made a gesture to Chen San, leading the charge.

Seeing the situation, Chen San didn’t dare to delay at all, immediately ordering his own men to rush up and help.

Wang Tian’an’s subordinates were running outside, and since Wang Tian’an himself had fled, the remaining people had no fighting spirit left and lacked the courage to turn around and fight. They just wanted to rush out of this gate as quickly as possible. Therefore, when Ye Qing and Chen San caught up, it was a completely one-sided massacre. In a short while, thirty to forty men were already down. It had taken over an hour of fighting for less than twenty of Wang Tian’an’s men to fall, but now, in less than a minute, nearly forty of his men had fallen, marking a truly heavy loss for him at this moment.

However, Wang Tian’an didn’t even turn his head, he hurried into his car and left first. Most of the people behind him were lucky enough to rush out of the compound and also fled in their cars. However, Chen San’s men chased after them, driving after them all the way to Wang Tian’an’s stronghold. Only then did everyone stop, and after tallying, it turned out that Wang Tian’an had lost about one hundred subordinates tonight. Wang Tian’an fled back to his turf in a disgraceful retreat, with less than half his people remaining, the rest either killed in battle or injured. Tonight was indeed a massive loss for Wang Tian’an!

However, for Wang Tian’an, what infuriated him most was that the food for the Heart-devouring Bugs he had hidden away was indeed all stolen. According to his subordinates’ description, he could ascertain that the person who had raided his place for the Heart-devouring Bugs’ food was definitely Cui Yulong. Unexpectedly, Cui Yulong had also returned to Shenchuan City at this time, causing Wang Tian’an to lose both his wife and his soldiers!

Tonight, the happiest person on Wang Tian’an’s side was Xu Cunxiao. With Wang Tian’an suffering a significant loss and not managing to kill Ye Qing, Wang Tian’an would definitely not kill Xu Cunxiao, for he still needed Xu Cunxiao to deal with Ye Qing. Xu Cunxiao would only have a chance to live as long as Ye Qing was alive, and Xu Cunxiao was very clear about this.

Over in Shenchuan City, a great victory brought excitement to Chen San’s face.

”Ye brothers, tonight’s battle has cost Wang Tian’an at least one-third of his forces!” Chen San looked at Ye Qing and said, ”It’s all thanks to your brilliant strategy, I really owe you a lot!”

Ye Qing smiled faintly and said, ”Third Brother Chen, actually, I should be the one thanking you. If you hadn’t brought people to rescue me tonight, no matter what plans I had, I couldn’t have carried them out.”

Chen San chuckled, noticing that Ye Qing’s gaze towards him now contained much more trust. In fact, when Ye Qing had first allied with him, he didn’t trust him much, but only just now did he start to trust him. If Chen San hadn’t brought people to rescue Ye Qing tonight, then their alliance probably would have completely disintegrated!

”If it were me who was caught tonight, Ye brothers, you would definitely have brought people to rescue me too!” Chen San smiled and said, ”Since we’re fighting side by side, we should share life and death together, shouldn’t we?”

”Hahaha…” Ye Qing laughed loudly. If Chen San had said this before, he wouldn’t have taken it seriously. But now, hearing this, he respected Chen San even more. This person, known as the White Horse of Eastern Shandong, relied not only on his formidable strength but also on his absolute honesty, which was the main reason why people willingly followed him!

At this moment, several from the Killing Gate also walked over, with Ghost King Li Ruoyuan shouting from afar, ”Little Leaf, how about it? Was my acting okay?”

Chen San turned his head to look, and noticed several figures from the Killing Gate were here. However, when he saw the Netherworld Scholar, he was taken aback. Now with the lighting good here, he could finally see clearly that this person looked very much like the Netherworld Scholar, but Chen San could still tell that this was not him!

”What… what’s going on?” Chen San asked in astonishment.

”Hahaha…” Cui Yu laughed loudly and said, ”Third Brother Chen, don’t be surprised. Actually, we don’t even know where the Netherworld Scholar has gone; he might have already escaped from the Southern Six Provinces. He’s afraid we’d hold him accountable and would definitely not appear around here!”

”Then… then what you just…” Chen San was even more astonished. If this person was not the Netherworld Scholar, then what about the Seven Kills Formation he was shouting about earlier? It sounded so convincing, and it scared Wang Tian’an away, but it turned out to be just an act?

”This Netherworld Scholar was actually impersonated by Du Tianyi!” Cui Yu smiled and said, ”The Netherworld Taoist is skilled in the Disguise Technique, with his trickery under dim light, it’s impossible to tell. In fact, our Seven Kills Formation was just a decoy to scare Wang Tian’an into fleeing!”

”Compared to Wang Tian’an, our strength is still weaker, and our manpower is far inferior to his. If we had continued to fight tonight, even if we could have left here alive, we would surely have suffered heavily!” Ye Qing said, ”So, I thought of this strategy, using the Seven Kills Formation to scare Wang Tian’an into retreating first. When he retreats without regard for what’s behind, we could take the opportunity to pursue and make him suffer a great loss!”
