Urban Martial Saint

Seeing Ye Qing already unable to stand, Yelu Ying and the others were even more anxious.

”Eighth Master, Mr. Ye, he... he...” Wu Changming turned his head, looking anxiously at Old Wang Ba.

Old Wang Ba shrugged and said, ”What use am I? I don’t have the skill to save him!”

”Aren’t you a bit anxious?” Wu Changming exclaimed.

”What’s there to be anxious about? This kid isn’t so easy to kill.” Old Wang Ba appeared confident.

Yelu Ying was even more anxious and said, ”With the situation like this, are you still so confident?”

Old Wang Ba shrugged and said, ”What good does anxiety do? Do you expect me to fight with Prince Wan Yan?”

The few people nearby were speechless, seeing Prince Wan Yan already walking to Ye Qing’s side, everyone’s hearts were suspended.

”Old Wang Ba, it seems you’ve miscalculated after all!” Prince Wan Yan reached out and grabbed Ye Qing’s collar, lifting him off the ground, and sneered, ”I’d like to see who can stop me today!”

Just as Prince Wan Yan finished speaking, suddenly, someone jumped out of the second-floor window behind him, like an arrow leaving the bowstring, rushing straight towards his back. The speed was so fast, it’s almost comparable to Prince Wan Yan, and the people around had no time to react.

Prince Wan Yan also felt the fierce attack from behind, and was greatly shocked in his heart, unable to think of anything else, quickly dodging to the side.

This maneuver got him out of harm’s way, but Ye Qing, who was caught in his hand, was snatched by this person.

Seeing this situation, the scene erupted in an uproar, especially the people of the Yelu Family who were most worried just now. No one expected that at this critical moment, someone would jump out to save Ye Qing, it was completely unexpected for everyone. But who is this person? How did he come just in time to save Ye Qing?

Prince Wan Yan’s face turned ashen, he never imagined, even in his dreams, that someone would really come out to save Ye Qing. Could it be, just as Old Wang Ba said, killing Ye Qing is simply impossible?

He slowly turned his head, looking at the person who just saved Ye Qing. This person was not tall, slightly thin, and compared to Prince Wan Yan’s long-standing presence, his aura seemed notably inferior. But everyone must admit, this person is very strong, after all, being able to save someone from Prince Wan Yan’s grip is not something any ordinary person can do.

”Who... who is this?” Wu Changming asked in astonishment, the Yelu Family members also did not recognize this person.

Ye Qing looked at the newcomer, greatly surprised, and murmured, ”Martial Uncle!?”

”Martial Uncle?” Wu Changming and the others were even more puzzled, when did Ye Qing have another martial uncle?

Prince Wan Yan looked coldly at the newcomer, remained silent for a long time before gritting his teeth and said, ”Li Changshan!”

The newcomer was none other than the current head of the Northern Li Family Bajiquan, Northern Fist King Li Changqing’s younger brother Li Changshan!

Ye Qing was the disciple of Northern Fist King Li Changqing, so naturally he had to call Li Changshan martial uncle. In fact, Ye Qing had seen him when he last visited the Northern Li Family, but Li Changshan was seriously injured at that time. No one expected that at such a venue today, it would be Li Changshan rushing to save Ye Qing. But how could he be here?

Li Changshan previously fought against Northern Martial Zen, and suffered a loss under Northern Martial Zen’s hands, showing that his strength is still inferior to that of top masters like Northern Martial Zen Wan Yan King. However, he is after all an elder, and as Li Changqing’s own brother. Although his strength isn’t up to these top-level masters, it’s not far off. Just now, using a surprise attack to save Ye Qing from Prince Wan Yan’s hands wasn’t particularly difficult.

”Are you okay?” Li Changshan whispered to Ye Qing.

”Still... still alright...” Ye Qing stood unsteadily, but with the medicinal power of the Ziyu Chenxiang Pill settling in his body, the recovery from his injuries was still quite fast.

Seeing Ye Qing able to stand steadily, Li Changshan nodded, he cupped his fist to Prince Wan Yan, and said, ”Wan Yan, long time no see, hope you’re well!”

”Humph!” Prince Wan Yan snorted coldly, and said in a deep voice, ”Li Changshan, aren’t you staying in the North, running to my Northern Desert causing trouble, what’s the meaning of this?”

”Wan Yan, your words are slightly inaccurate.” Li Changshan said, ”Here is the Meng District, not the Northern Desert. I truly don’t understand when General Helian’s territory became Wan Yan’s place?”

Prince Wan Yan frowned and said in a deep voice, ”Li Changshan, I don’t want to waste words with you. Hand over Ye Qing to me, and this matter can be written off. If you insist on meddling, don’t blame me for not showing mercy!”

Li Changshan showed no fear, calmly saying, ”Wan Yan, since you know I’m from the Northern Li Family, then you should be aware. Ye Qing is my brother’s sole heir, also an heir of our Northern Li Family. Taking care of his matters, how is that meddling?”

”Li Changqing is already history, do you think it’s still twenty years ago? You can’t scare people using his name now!” Prince Wan Yan said coldly, ”Li Changshan, I’ll say it again. Hand over Ye Qing to me, or else I’ll kill you both!”

Facing Prince Wan Yan’s aggressive manner, Li Changshan did not step back, loudly declaring, ”If you want to take Ye Qing, then you’ll have to step over my dead body!”

”Great!” Prince Wan Yan clenched his fist and said loudly, ”Today, I want to see how strong the so-called Li Family Bajiquan really is!”

As he spoke, Prince Wan Yan lunged forward, sending a Long Fist straight at Li Changshan.

Facing Prince Wan Yan’s attack, Li Changshan dared not take it head-on. He pushed Ye Qing to the side, then sidestepped to evade Wan Yan’s punch, while simultaneously charging forth a step and slammed his shoulder towards Wan Yan.

This move was precisely the most practical technique in Bajiquan, Stick to the Mountain, and Li Changshan, as the brother of Li Changqing, had immersed himself in Bajiquan for decades. Even though his strength was lacking, his Bajiquan was extremely skillful, much more so than Ye Qing. Had Ye Qing attempted this Stick to the Mountain move, it wouldn’t have been so effortless. Li Changshan’s execution, however, seemed like flowing water, leaving no flaws.

”Well done!” Prince Wan Yan’s eyes lit up. He withdrew his Long Fist and didn’t dodge, instead directly pressing down on Li Changshan’s shoulder.

The power of Stick to the Mountain is formidable, and especially when executed by Li Changshan, this move could send a bull flying. Yet, framed by Wan Yan, Li Changshan could not budge an inch, not even close to him. The disparity in strength between them was starkly evident.

Resisting the Stick to the Mountain, Prince Wan Yan wasted no time and reached out to grasp Li Changshan’s neck.

Li Changshan did not evade either, allowing himself to be seized. He then stepped forward, lifting his right arm to block Wan Yan’s arm. Followed immediately by a forceful right elbow aimed at Wan Yan’s chest, their proximity and Li Changshan’s speed left Wan Yan no time to dodge.

Seeing that Wan Yan was about to be struck by this elbow, at this critical moment, Wan Yan suddenly shouted and forcefully exerted power into his arm, pressing down the raised arm. With this, Li Changshan’s elbow strike was neutralized, failing to hit Wan Yan.

”A superb set of Bajiquan!” Prince Wan Yan laughed heartily, loudly declaring, ”But what’s the use? At this level of strength, all techniques are external. Without sufficient inner strength, everything is in vain. Li Changshan, you’re not my match!”

Li Changshan clenched his teeth in silence, continuously employing the signature moves of Bajiquan to attack Wan Yan. Yet as Wan Yan said, his inner strength was inferior, and after a while, his moves were easily countered by Wan Yan. Despite fighting for so long, he hadn’t harmed Wan Yan at all, while he himself had taken two punches, clearly injured.

Ye Qing watched this unfold, greatly anxious. He knew too well that Li Changshan was no match for Wan Yan, and if this continued, Li Changshan’s life would definitely end here. However, he himself was spent, unable to help, and could only witness Li Changshan fight Wan Yan desperately.

The Yelu family members were also anxiously observing the fight. Though they weren’t very strong, they could see Li Changshan was at a disadvantage. Li Changshan was their only hope, and if he lost, they would indeed be finished.

Though everyone was worried, it did not change the situation. During this time, Li Changshan took two heavy punches from Wan Yan, and blood dripped from his mouth, indicating internal injuries.

”Li Changshan, with such limited strength, you dare to block me? Your brother Li Changqing could face me, but you are not qualified!” Prince Wan Yan sneered, saying, ”Hmph, it seems today the Li Family is doomed to extinction. Li Changshan, prepare to die!”

Prince Wan Yan roared, seizing an opening in Li Changshan’s defense, and swiftly aimed a heavy palm at Li Changshan’s forehead with full force, clearly intent to settle everything with a single blow.

Li Changshan had no chance to dodge now, desperately extending his hands in defense. However, Wan Yan anticipated this, directly blocking his arms, and continued pressing his palm towards Li Changshan’s forehead.

”Ah!” The Yelu family girls screamed in fright, with some turning their heads away, not daring to witness the violence.

At this critical moment, there was a sudden turn of events. Originally collapsed to the side, Ye Qing suddenly jumped up, wielding the Wu Hong Dagger and stabbing towards Wan Yan’s back.

Ye Qing was severely injured, and after a long time, had accumulated just enough strength. Seeing Li Changshan in danger, he disregarded everything, wanting merely to rescue Li Changshan first.
