Urban Martial Saint

Ye Qing didn’t know that before Lu Zian challenged him, he was first injured by the white-haired Ding San. Unknowingly, the white-haired Ding San had shielded him from a trouble.

However, what was meant to come would eventually come, and Ao Wuchang from Shu, after resolving matters in the Western Province, finally arrived in Shenchuan City. Although he hadn’t come to find Ye Qing yet, Ye Qing knew that Ao Wuchang would definitely come for him.

After lunch, Ye Qing gathered all his loyal brothers and had them take all their men to the outskirts for a two-day training session.

Ye Qing’s plan was very sudden, and Black Bear Da Fei and the others were all bewildered by Ye Qing’s sudden decision. No one expected Ye Qing to propose such a thing suddenly. However, Ye Qing had made up his mind and didn’t say much to everyone, just instructed them to start the training session in the suburbs immediately.

Even though Ye Qing’s order was unexpected, since it was Ye Qing’s order, everyone naturally wouldn’t defy it. Black Bear Da Fei and the others went out to gather their men, and except for those left behind in the city to look after the place, the rest all went to the suburbs to start the two-day training.

With everyone gone, Ye Qing’s place felt deserted, with not many attendants left either. Afterward, Ye Qing found Liu Mubai and asked him to go to Dongzhou to retrieve something.

Liu Mubai didn’t go to Dongzhou directly as Ye Qing said, but after a moment of silence, he looked up at Ye Qing and said, ”Ye Zi, you don’t need to deceive me. There’s nothing to retrieve over in Dongzhou. You just want to send me away. I’ve heard about Ao Wuchang arriving in Shenchuan City. You know Ao Wuchang will definitely come for you, so you sent the brothers away to prevent unnecessary sacrifice.”

Ye Qing glanced at Liu Mubai, sighed softly, and said, ”Liu, since you know, I won’t hide it from you. It’s said that Ao Wuchang from Shu is extremely protective and spoils his only son. This time, since I injured his son, he will definitely come for me. This matter is solely my doing and has nothing to do with others. So, I don’t want to drag you into it. As long as you’re not here, Ao Wuchang won’t come for you!”

Liu Mubai calmly looked at Ye Qing and said, ”If it were me, would you let me face someone coming for revenge alone?”

Ye Qing looked at Liu Mubai and didn’t speak further because Liu Mubai’s meaning was clear.

”I’m helping you not just because you can provide everything abroad for my sister. Most importantly, I regard you as my brother!” Liu Mubai’s voice was calm yet steady, ”Since we are brothers, I won’t let you face it alone here. No matter how strong Ao Wuchang from Shu is, we brothers at most die together, what’s the big deal?”

Ye Qing smiled faintly and slowly stood up, saying, ”In that case, our brothers will wait here for Ao Wuchang to come!”

Liu Mubai also smiled, stood beside Ye Qing, and said, ”Even though our strength might not match that of Ao Wuchang, it’s impossible for him to trample over us. Even in defeat, we will lose with dignity!”

”Who said we will lose!” a voice suddenly came from the window.

Ye Qing and Liu Mubai simultaneously turned their heads to see Cui Yulong jumping in through the window. Seeing Ye Qing and Liu Mubai’s surprised expressions, Cui Yulong said, ”I just returned, saw many people in the front yard, thought I was late. Worried about you two, I didn’t use the main door. So, am I not too late?”

Ye Qing and Liu Mubai exchanged a glance and then burst into laughter. Ye Qing walked over, patted Cui Yulong on the shoulder, and said with a smile, ”With you here, we feel much more secure!”

Ao Wuchang from Shu is well-known and mighty. Just Ye Qing and Liu Mubai alone weren’t his match. But with Cui Yulong added, it was uncertain. Cui Yulong was also formidable, and with his Ink Pattern Black Gold Blade, the three together might stand a chance against Ao Wuchang.

”What do you mean, with him here, aren’t we also here?” With a strange voice, several others jumped in through the window; it was none other than Killing Gate members.

Ghost-faced Judge Cui Yu, Black Asura, Ghost King Li Ruoyuan, Demon Queen He Qinghua, Netherworld Taoist, and Pig King all jumped in through the window. To be precise, the first few jumped in, but Pig King got stuck. The others helped, but he couldn’t squeeze in, so he retreated and entered through the main door instead.

These people actually came with Cui Yulong. Earlier at the front door, they saw many people and thought Ao Wuchang had already arrived, so they prepared to come downstairs for a surprise attack to help Ye Qing. Unexpectedly, Ao Wuchang hadn’t arrived yet, and they happened to meet Ye Qing first here.

In fact, regarding Ao Wuchang, Ye Qing hadn’t notified the people from Sha Men at all. He didn’t expect them all to come to help him, which really touched Ye Qing. After all, Ao Wuchang’s strength is indeed very formidable. The fact that these people dared to come and oppose Ao Wuchang is truly commendable!

With the people from Sha Men arriving, Ye Qing’s heart felt immediately more at ease. Having so many people by his side willing to share life and death with him, Ye Qing felt a surge of heroism. Even though there was a great disparity in strength between him and Ao Wuchang, Ye Qing felt much more confident than before!

Sure enough, as Ye Qing anticipated, at two o’clock in the afternoon, Ao Wuchang sent a visit card, wanting to pay Ye Qing a visit. To say it was a visit, to be blunt, he actually wanted to seek revenge on Ye Qing.

Ye Qing didn’t hesitate at all, and the location was set at an estate on the outskirts. This estate belonged to Li Lianshan, usually very quiet, and without Li Lianshan’s permission, ordinary people could not enter and exit at will. Therefore, it was quite suitable to confront Ao Wuchang there.

At seven in the evening, Ye Qing and his group arrived at the estate to wait. The agreed time with Ao Wuchang was seven-thirty, so there was still half an hour to go. The group arrived here, took a short rest, and then sat in the courtyard, waiting for Ao Wuchang to come.

”Ao Wuchang from Shu!” Ghost King Li Ruoyuan, almost sitting cross-legged on a chair, muttered in a low voice, ”This person gained fame very early, being from the same generation as the father of Huangfu Ziyu and the parents of Chen San. Even being of the same generation as Helian Tiehua. Back when the Sect Leader was here, he once commented on him, saying this person had great talent in martial arts. Now, after more than ten years, I wonder how strong he has become!”

”So what?” The Demon Queen He Qinghua glanced at Li Ruoyuan and said, ”Are you afraid of him or something? If you’re scared of him, go ahead and leave; no one is forcing you to stay here!”

”Who said I was afraid of him!” Ghost King Li Ruoyuan got angry immediately and said, ”I’m just giving everyone a heads-up so we can understand Ao Wuchang’s strength. As they say, know your enemy and yourself, and you can fight a hundred battles with no danger of defeat. If we don’t know Ao Wuchang’s strength at all, how will we fight later? Besides, when have I ever been afraid of anyone? Even if he’s some Ao Wuchang from Shu, so what if he’s General Helian? At most, I’ll stake my old life, but fear him? Impossible!”

Seeing Ghost King Li Ruoyuan like this, Cui Yu immediately laughed and said, ”Demon Queen, the Ghost King is actually thinking for everyone’s good. Ao Wuchang is not an easy person to deal with. If our Sha Men’s Seven Kills Formation were still intact, we might have a chance against him. However, now that the Netherworld Scholar has betrayed us and we can’t assemble the Killing Gate Seven Hidden, it’s wise to be careful. Tonight’s battle is extremely dangerous, and I hope everyone stays vigilant and doesn’t underestimate him!”

Hearing Cui Yu’s words, Li Ruoyuan calmed down a bit and said, ”Judge, stop mentioning that Seven Kills Formation, mentioning it just makes my stomach hurt. The Netherworld Scholar, that bastard, better not let me catch him, or I’ll skin him alive. At such a critical moment last time, he defected and almost cost me my life, damn it!”

Bringing up the Netherworld Scholar, everyone from Sha Men was furious, as they had all narrowly escaped death at the Shen Family Manor last time.

Among everyone from Sha Men, the calmest was Cui Yulong. He was holding a wooden box containing the Ink Pattern Black Gold Blade, sipping a cup of tea leisurely. He had actually just arrived in Shenchuan City that morning, because he received news that Ao Wuchang was coming to Shenchuan City, so he returned to help Ye Qing.

Ye Qing and Liu Mubai sat at the front. In truth, Ye Qing was feeling a bit emotional. This was his own matter, yet it involved the people from Sha Men and Liu Mubai facing it with him, making him feel quite guilty. Despite this, he had no regrets about injuring Aomuhan!

Finally, as everyone was waiting, the gatekeeper came running over in a hurry and said to Ye Qing, ”Ye, someone called Ao Wuchang is outside, saying he made an appointment with you!”

Everyone immediately turned to look at Ye Qing. Ao Wuchang had finally arrived, and everyone became a bit nervous. After all, Ao Wuchang’s name had long cast a shadow, and he had been famous for decades, his strength supreme. Who could remain calm?

”Let him in!” Ye Qing stood up, calmly looking in the direction of the door, quietly waiting for Ao Wuchang and his people to enter.

”Yes!” The gatekeeper responded and hurriedly ran to the door. After a short time, the main gate opened, and five cars drove in one by one, stopping in the courtyard.

From the car in the front stepped out a pair of siblings, Chen San and Chen Si. Chen San looked at Ye Qing from a distance, his expression somewhat emotional but unsure of what to say, so he merely nodded at Ye Qing as a greeting.
