Urban Martial Saint

Ye Qing glanced at the Handsome Fatty Wang and said, ”Consider yourself lucky, the others haven’t returned yet. Otherwise, you’d know what it really means to have no regard for the law!”

The Handsome Fatty Wang glared at Ye Qing indignantly, his eyes rolling around, leaving one wondering what on earth he was thinking.

Being stared at like this, Ye Qing also felt uncomfortable all over. This damn fatty may not be very capable, but he’s definitely first-rate at scheming against others. Right now, he was probably cooking up some plan to deal with Ye Qing.

However, Ye Qing wasn’t worried at all. Since he came to the dungeon this time to rescue the Handsome Fatty Wang, Prince Wan Yan would definitely think he was in league with the Handsome Fatty Wang. By then, while searching for Ye Qing, Prince Wan Yan would surely also launch a full-scale manhunt for the Handsome Fatty Wang. This guy would have to be on the run as soon as he got out, with a very low chance of coming after Ye Qing for revenge.

After getting the Handsome Fatty Wang and the others out, Ye Qing ran back to the entrance and whispered, ”Old man, old man, how are you?”

There was no response from below, and it was unclear what the situation was with the old man inside. Ye Qing was slightly puzzled and shouted a few more times, but still, there was no movement, which made him more surprised.

He took out the Wu Hong Dagger, intending to slash open the lock at the entrance. However, unexpectedly, this lock was really as the old man had said; even with his Famed Instrument in hand, he couldn’t cut through it. After a few slashes, Ye Qing could only give up.

”Old man, how are you?” Ye Qing asked a few more times. Seeing there was really no response, he could only sigh, ”Old man, the Wanyan Family’s people are coming soon. I have to leave first. Take care!”

After finishing speaking, Ye Qing got up and dashed out. He still didn’t know who exactly was detained in this dungeon. But having given the other party a Ziyu Chenxiang Pill, he felt he had done his utmost. Since he really couldn’t open the lock and couldn’t save the person, he had to escape first.

The Handsome Fatty Wang and others had already run away, and with so many being released just now, the Wanyan Family’s people would certainly notice. If he continued to linger here, he definitely wouldn’t be able to escape, and he would be doomed.

In the basement, an old man with pure white hair and a stench all over, trembled as he picked up the Ziyu Chenxiang Pill from the ground. He sniffed it deeply at his nose, sighed long, and glanced at the entrance outside, a trace of gratitude flashing on his face.

He didn’t eat the Ziyu Chenxiang Pill but instead, holding the pill, walked slowly to a corner of the basement. There sat a monk cross-legged, whose monk robes were severely damaged, likely due to being held here for too long, with the clothes on him having rotted away.

”Monk, it seems we have a chance to get out of here.” The old man sat beside the monk and handed the Ziyu Chenxiang Pill to him, saying, ”This is the Ziyu Chenxiang Pill from the Xihang Shen Family. The poison in you has mostly been cleared. It’s just malnutrition that’s preventing your Inner Strength from recovering. After taking this Ziyu Chenxiang Pill, your Inner Strength will be fully restored!”

The monk turned to look at the Ziyu Chenxiang Pill in the old man’s hand and said, ”Why don’t you take it? Your injuries aren’t much lighter than mine.”

”You know, I only know how to treat illnesses, nothing else.” The old man sighed, ”What use is it for me to take this? I can’t open the dungeon’s exit anyway. Better you take it, open the dungeon exit, and then we can get out.”

The monk didn’t say anything more, as he took the Ziyu Chenxiang Pill from the old man’s hand and swallowed it directly.

”Remember the voice of that young man just now...” the old man murmured beside, ”He saved us both, repay him if you get the opportunity!”

”I only know how to kill!” The monk shook his head, ”I’m not like you, I can’t save anyone, nor repay anyone.”

”Helping him kill a few enemies would be a payoff as well.” The old man replied.

A flash of surprise passed through the monk’s eyes as he stared at the old man for a long time and said, ”I never imagined that the once-benevolent Sai Hua Tuo would have a day advocating killing. It seems I was right; human nature is indeed wicked!”

If anyone were to hear this here, they would certainly be shocked beyond words. Sai Hua Tuo? Could this old man really be Sai Hua Tuo Bai Li Xi? Could he be one of the two disciples of Divine Doctor An Shiping, alongside King Yan Ning Qianshu?

The world knows that Sai Hua Tuo Bai Li Xi had been missing for decades, with many believing him to be dead. Who would have thought he was imprisoned in the Wanyan Family’s dungeon? Moreover, seeing him now, where was the leisurely demeanor of the divine doctor known to all?

Moreover, the key question is, who is this monk? Someone who could be confined alongside a character like Sai Hua Tuo Bai Li Xi must not hold a low status. Who exactly is he then?

It was fortunate Ye Qing had left, or else knowing about this, he would undoubtedly be extremely shocked. His return this time was intended to rescue the Handsome Fatty Wang, but unexpectedly, by sheer chance, he also saved Sai Hua Tuo Bai Li Xi and this mysterious monk. This truly can be considered fate.

The monk took the Ziyu Chenxiang Pill, and the originally sallow color on his face gradually turned rosy. He seemed much more spirited, showcasing the excellent effects of the Ziyu Chenxiang Pill.

At this moment, hurried footsteps echoed from above the dungeon, indicating that people from the Wanyan Family had come in. Various angry shouts kept coming from outside, with some yelling to hunt down Ye Qing and others.

After a while, a beam of light suddenly shone at the dungeon entrance, and a person’s head appeared at the entryway. Seeing Bai Li Xi and the monk still inside the dungeon, this person seemed much relieved, turned around, and shouted loudly, ”Second Elder, the two of them are still here, they haven’t escaped.”

”That’s good!” An aged voice responded, ”Spread the word, and immediately send people to hunt down Ye Qing and Handsome Fatty Wang’s group. Bring them back dead or alive!”

The speaker was none other than the Wanyan Family’s Second Elder. This time they were thoroughly enraged and had issued a kill order.

”Ye Qing!” Bai Li Xi softly repeated the name, etching it in his mind because he knew Ye Qing was the one who rescued them.

The monk, on the other hand, paid no attention to this. His inner strength recovery had reached a critical moment, and he felt his entire body brimming with energy. He slowly stood up, walked to the entrance, looked back at Bai Li Xi, and said, ”Stay back.”

Bai Li Xi immediately turned and stepped back. His body was weak now and couldn’t withstand much impact, so naturally, he stayed as far away as possible.

”Wan Yan Zong, I’m out again!” the monk silently exclaimed in his heart, suddenly let out a long howl, and with a leap, punched fiercely at the iron gate of the entrance.

This iron gate was specially crafted by Prince Wan Yan, using materials for making famed instruments, extremely hard. That’s why Ye Qing’s Wu Hong Dagger couldn’t break the door. However, when the monk punched the iron gate, it shook violently as if it was about to be blasted away by the punch.

Above, a few people were still tidying up the scene. Hearing this noise, they were quite startled. They cautiously approached to see, and at that moment, the monk struck again, another heavy punch to the iron gate. The cement slabs around the door crumbled, falling down in large chunks.

The people above were startled, one of them urgently said, ”Quick, quickly go find the Second Elder, tell him the prisoners in the death cell are trying to escape.”

Someone hurriedly ran out to deliver the message, and the remaining kept weapons ready at the exit, prepared to deliver a fatal blow once someone emerged.

The iron gate was indeed solid; the monk hit it two more times, only causing it to shake even more violently. Breaking it directly was practically impossible. However, the monk wasn’t trying to smash it open but to knock it down entirely, thus creating an exit.

The few above were astounded by the loud noise because the monk’s strength was beyond their expectations.

”How is it? How is it?” the urgent voice came with the Second Elder leading a group into the dungeon. He had just left not long ago but immediately returned upon receiving the news.

By this time, the monk had just delivered the final punch. He hadn’t opened the iron gate, but all the cement around it was shattered, and the iron gate couldn’t hold any longer, falling down to reveal a huge opening.

”Hahaha...” The monk laughed heartily, grabbed Bai Li Xi’s arm and pulled him, jumping directly out of the dungeon.

The Second Elder had just entered to see this scene and was dumbfounded. Others might not know the identity of the two in the dungeon, but he knew it very well, and thus their horror was clear to him. Seeing them standing right in front of him, he was stunned. After a moment of hesitation, he quickly turned to leave, intending to escape.

”Trying to run!” the monk chuckled coldly, lunging forward with a rapid stride.

The Wanyan Family members nearby hurriedly came to block the monk, but their abilities were far inferior. They were flung away like toy dolls by the monk. Yet, the monk’s speed didn’t decrease, and in a few steps, he reached the Second Elder, extending a hand towards his neck.

Hearing the sound, the Second Elder knew he couldn’t escape, so he swiftly countered with a knife, attempting to drive the monk away. However, as soon as he extended his hand, the monk snatched the knife effortlessly.

Holding the long knife, the monk wasted no time, jumped up, and with a sweeping strike, the Second Elder’s head fell to the ground, blood gushing everywhere, leaving the Second Elder dead at the monk’s hands.

The Wanyan Family members were dumbfounded, such an event had never happened in the Wanyan Family! Staring at the Second Elder’s corpse, most were bewildered, not knowing what to do.
