Urban Martial Saint

These people were all kneeling on the ground, begging Ye Qing to spare them. However, how could Ye Qing possibly spare them? One person, one blade, all were chopped down without the slightest hesitation.

Just as he finished dealing with these people, a few more ran in from outside. They were from the adjacent house, having heard the commotion; they came to see what was happening. The result was the same—Ye Qing had no intention of showing mercy to these people, determined to kill with no survivors.

After dealing with these people, Ye Qing finally walked to the side of the two women. He took clothes from nearby, covered their bodies, then tied up their hands and feet, turned his back to them, and said softly, ”Put on your clothes, and I’ll take you out of here.”

The two women exchanged a glance, didn’t speak, and gritted their teeth against the pain in their limbs, putting on their clothes neatly.

Ye Qing listened to the two behind him stand up, guessing that they had finished dressing, turned to the door, checked around to see no one, and softly asked, ”Can you two walk?”

The two women were now standing on the ground, dressed neatly, tidying each other’s hair. Seeing them like this, Ye Qing couldn’t help but frown slightly. At a time like this, were they still concerned about appearance?

”Time is pressing, let’s not delay, it’s better to get out first.” Ye Qing urged softly.

”Mr. Ye, we won’t delay you.” One of the women turned to look at Ye Qing, unbeknownst when a short dagger was already in her hand. Blood was still dribbling from it, as if it had just been drawn from a wound.

”This...” Ye Qing was surprised, looking closely; the other woman had a wound on her chest, blood gushing out, staining her clothes crimson. No doubt, the short dagger had been pulled from this woman’s chest.

”What happened?” Ye Qing’s expression changed, he hurried over. But at that moment, the woman with the dagger suddenly stabbed the short dagger into her own chest.

”What are you doing!” Ye Qing exclaimed urgently, rushing forward, but it was too late. The woman fell slowly to the ground, blood pooling everywhere, clearly having injured her internal organs.

Ye Qing quickly took out the Devouring Demon Flower from his body, placed it by the woman’s mouth, and urged urgently, ”Why did you do this? Quick, take this medicine, it can save your life!”

The woman weakly shook her head, pushed Ye Qing’s hand away, and said sadly, ”Mr. Ye, we appreciate your kindness. But the two of us have been defiled. Even if we walk out of here alive, we would bear a lifetime of disgrace, it is better to die here.”

”Mr. Ye, thank you for saving us.” The other woman also slowly fell down and barely looked at Ye Qing, whispering, ”In our state, death is the best relief. To see someone avenging us as we die, to wear clothes to die with dignity, is more than we could hope for. Mr. Ye, we won’t burden you, there are others in the Shen Family who... might be spared, we hope you... you can save them...”

Ye Qing now finally understood why the two women were dressed so tidily, their hair done. They had planned to commit suicide long ago, but before dying, they wanted to maintain their dignity, so they tidied themselves up. These two women were truly courageous!

”Why are you so foolish!” Ye Qing urged anxiously, ”Even ants cling to life; no matter what, living is better than dying. Quickly take this medicine, you can still be saved!”

”Mr. Ye, you don’t need to persuade us!” one woman trembled as she spoke, ”If... if we were ordinary women, perhaps we could cling to life. But we... we’re from the Shen Family, even if we die, we cannot bring shame to the Shen Family...”

As they spoke, the two women could no longer hold on, slowly collapsing to the ground, and breathed their last.

Looking at the two women’s bodies, even Ye Qing felt grief and indignation at this moment. He gritted his teeth, stood slowly, looked at their bodies, and said in a deep voice, ”Rest assured, I will avenge you!”

Ye Qing moved the women’s bodies into the courtyard and brought over those hanging corpses as well. Most of these bodies were... unclothed. This time, Ye Qing was no longer afraid of delaying, found clothes, dressed them properly, then laid them together, tearing down some curtains to cover them.

Having settled everything, Ye Qing sighed deeply, looked at the bodies, and decisively walked out of the courtyard. This time, he no longer hung The Ancestor of Miao Dao’s scabbard on his back, but held it firmly in his hand. For the people of Corpse Ghost Dragon, he had no hope left and was ready to kill without mercy upon sight!

Leaving the courtyard, Ye Qing headed straight to the second courtyard where he killed all the guards outside. Rushing inside, the situation was much the same as the previous one. Ye Qing killed everyone aligned with Corpse Ghost Dragon and saved the remaining people inside. Fortunately, there were some men from the Shen Family undergoing punishment.

Ye Qing gave each of them a piece of the Devouring Demon Flower, and they regained their strength, supporting each other to the dungeon and escaping through the tunnel.

After sending them off, Ye Qing went to the next courtyard. The situation inside these courtyards was generally similar, with no masters stationed, indicating all the masters had gone to the main entrance, making it more convenient for Ye Qing. After searching through almost every courtyard in the manor, Ye Qing found another two or three dozen survivors, whom he sent to the dungeon, thus rescuing everyone in the manor.

By this time, the battle at the main entrance was reaching its climax. Although Ye Qing was busy in the backyards, he could hear the constant roars of Ding Lianshun and the whistling sounds of air arrows from the front, indicating that Ding Lianshun and Huangfu Ziyu were in a difficult fight.

After instructing Shen Da and the others to take all the Shen Family members away, Ye Qing once again followed the tunnel back to the manor, sneaking to the main entrance.

Arriving there, Ye Qing saw from afar, Huangfu Ziyu hovering in the air, continuously shooting out air arrows with the Sun Shooting Bow below. However, her hair was somewhat disheveled, and there was a visible wound on her left shoulder, indicating she had been struck. As for Ding Lianshun, he was in even greater danger, surrounded by seven or eight people, fighting hard but clearly in a losing battle, with several bloodstains on him, showing he was injured.

Ye Qing saw clearly that among the seven or eight attacking Ding Lianshun was none other than Yin Xianzi. At this moment, Yin Xianzi’s eyes were soulless, like a puppet, striking at Ding Lianshun with her full force. It was Yin Xianzi alone who contained most of Ding Lianshun’s combat power, otherwise, he wouldn’t be so harried!

”Hahaha...” At this moment, a maniacal laugh suddenly erupted from the crowd watching. Ye Qing looked closely and saw an old man sitting among the spectators, it was Luan Ping, Prince Nalan’s uncle.

Luan Ping’s condition was even worse than when Ye Qing last saw him. Back then, he was just an elderly dying man, with dull skin. But now, he wasn’t just old; he looked lifeless. If he hadn’t been able to talk and walk, others might have thought he was a corpse!

Actually, Luan Ping was already nearing the end of his lifespan, surviving with strong power and years of cultivation. This time, he came out for the Heaven Earth Man Three Gates, looking for ways to prolong life. Unexpectedly, he hadn’t found the way yet but had already lost much of his Inner Strength to Corpse Ghost Dragon. Without this Inner Strength, he could not suppress his ageing body, truly nearing death. This is why he worked so devotedly for Corpse Ghost Dragon because he had to rely on them for survival. Alone, he wouldn’t last half a year!

Corpse Ghost Dragon had gone to pursue Shen Tianjun, so Luan Ping, as its most capable assistant, naturally staffed the Shen Family Manor. Seeing Ding Lianshun and Huangfu Ziyu surrounded, he was exceedingly excited.

”Everyone, come on, capture that woman and seize the Sun Shooting Bow, let’s win a great battle for the Grand Master!” Luan Ping laughed, ”Once we have the Sun Shooting Bow, the Grand Master will reward us greatly when he returns!”

Luan Ping’s words further incited the people on site. Apart from Yin Xianzi, most of them became frenzied, fighting more intensely, desperate to kill Ding Lianshun and Huangfu Ziyu here. Yin Xianzi remained soulless, completely deaf to external sounds.

Although Huangfu Ziyu’s Sun Shooting Bow was strong, among her opponents was clearly a Peak Master. Almost all her air arrows were blocked by him, so she barely injured anyone, being completely restrained. Without her immense destructive power, Ding Lianshun was further battered, and both were entirely at a disadvantage.

Ye Qing could see clearly; at this rate, Ding Lianshun and Huangfu Ziyu would not survive. However, he also knew that even if he were to intervene now, he wouldn’t be of much help because none in the field were weak. If Luan Ping joined the fight, none of the three would escape.

Therefore, Ye Qing didn’t rush in immediately; he turned to look around, spotting more than a dozen parked vehicles in the distance. Suddenly, Ye Qing had a flash of inspiration, a plan forming in his mind.
