Urban Martial Saint

Seeing Ye Qing like this, the people of the Wanyan Family couldn’t help but feel a bit flustered. In this stone corridor, they were already numerous, and now they didn’t dare to run around recklessly. Moreover, they didn’t dare to make a move against Ye Qing, but Ye Qing dared to act against them. If Ye Qing really used this weapon to hunt them down, they would indeed be in danger.

Wan Yan Yong frowned, glancing at Senior Du Canglang next to him. But at that moment, Du Canglang even closed his eyes, as if he wasn’t concerned with what was happening here. This made him feel even more depressed. Although Du Canglang seemed indifferent to this matter, if they did make a move against Ye Qing, Du Canglang might not remain with eyes closed.

With the principle of not angering Du Canglang, Wan Yan Yong gestured for the two to release Wen’er.

Although the two were somewhat unwilling, seeing the weapon raised in Ye Qing’s hand, they had no choice but to release Wen’er.

Upon being released, Wen’er immediately ran to stand behind Ye Qing. She looked furiously at the people of the Wanyan Family, as she had been slapped just now, something she had never suffered since she was a child.

”That’s more like it.” Ye Qing looked at the Wanyan Family members with a faint smile and said, ”As the saying goes, ’A wise man knows the times.’ You’ve made the right choice. However, even though you’ve made the right choice, I still won’t let you off!”

As Ye Qing spoke, he suddenly raised the weapon in his hand and slashed towards the man who had slapped Wen’er earlier.

No one expected it. Even after they had released Wen’er, Ye Qing still attacked them. The man hurriedly dodged, pointing at Ye Qing anxiously, ”Ye, you’re not keeping your word!”

”How am I not keeping my word?” Ye Qing said coldly, ”I just said earlier that if you didn’t release her, don’t blame me for being unkind. But, I didn’t say that if you released her, I would be kind to you!”

”You...” The group was at a loss, indeed Ye Qing hadn’t said that, and they had no way to refute his words.

Ye Qing sneered, raising his weapon again to chase after the man. Normally, he wouldn’t do such a thing. However, today’s situation was different, he had to provoke a fight between the Wanyan Family and Du Canglang so that in the future, Du Canglang would inevitably be at odds with the Wanyan Family. Thus, he was willing to bear such infamy to incite the anger of the Wanyan Family’s people, thereby provoking enmity between Du Canglang and the Wanyan Family.

Seeing the Wanyan Family members being chased by Ye Qing with nowhere to escape, Wan Yan Yong finally became extremely angry. He stood up abruptly and said in a deep voice, ”Enough!”

”You think it’s enough, I don’t think it’s enough!” Ye Qing ignored him entirely. By this time, he had already injured a member of the Wanyan Family. If this continued, the Wanyan Family would surely suffer greatly.

Wan Yan Yong gritted his teeth; he still didn’t dare to make a move against Ye Qing, and could only say to Du Canglang, ”Senior Du, if there’s nothing else, we’ll take our leave. I promise not to speak of today’s events to anyone. If anyone else knows about this, I’m willing to bear all responsibilities. This is my promise to you!”

At this moment, Du Canglang slowly opened his eyes, looked at Wan Yan Yong, and said, ”Promise? Hmph, I have no use for such things!”

Wan Yan Yong’s face changed slightly; Du Canglang’s words gave him an ominous feeling.

”You’re right, I don’t believe you, nor do I trust the Wanyan Family!” Du Canglang stood up slowly, speaking calmly, ”The Wanyan Family has always been despicable in their actions, I’m well aware of that. If I let you leave Mount Duwang alive today, I’m afraid I would face endless trouble in the future. So, I’m afraid none of you will leave this cave alive!”

Hearing this, the faces of the Wanyan Family members changed drastically, and a look of terror flashed in Wan Yan Yong’s eyes. He said in a deep voice, ”Senior Du, are you declaring war on the Wanyan Family?”

”Hahaha...” Du Canglang laughed loudly and casually pointed to the cold and stern old man beside him, saying, ”I’ve even dared to kill members of the Church, let alone the mere Wanyan Family. Declaring war on the Wanyan Family, so what? Once I acquire the Tianzhu Sword and the Buddha’s Relic, what can the Wanyan Family do about me?”

Wan Yan Yong gritted his teeth; what Du Canglang said was indeed true. If he actually obtained the Tianzhu Sword and the Buddha’s Relic, then in this world, truly no one could be his opponent, and he wouldn’t need to fear the Wanyan Family at all.

In fact, Du Canglang had been sitting and pondering for such a long time, all thinking about this matter. At this moment, he had thoroughly decided to make a move against the Wanyan Family, regardless of the consequences, he couldn’t let his situation be leaked. Originally, it was already troublesome enough having just Nalan Jingwei and those people tracking him. If the Wanyan Family, whose strength was unknown, got involved, it would only be more troublesome, so he had to try to minimize the trouble for himself. Besides, Du Canglang was such a person, inherently fearing neither heaven nor earth, so how could he fear the Wanyan Family?

”Du, don’t be so arrogant!” said one member of the Wanyan Family angrily, ”This time, we have many senior masters from the Wanyan Family coming along. If you dare to attack our Wanyan Family members, our senior masters will definitely not spare you!”

”Hmph! If they have the skill, let them come and find me.” Du Canglang snorted coldly, and his right hand suddenly flicked, sending a small stone flying straight towards the person who had just spoken.

This was in the dark, and the stone was indeed too small, coupled with Du Canglang’s extremely quick move, so apart from Wan Yan Yong, no one else saw the stone.

Seeing the stone, Wan Yan Yong’s expression changed, crying out in alarm, ”Quick, dodge!”

However, it was already too late when he shouted. Before his voice had fallen, the stone had struck the man’s head. The man didn’t even have time to grunt before falling directly to the ground, his head pierced through by the stone, dying instantaneously.

Seeing this situation, Wan Yan Yong didn’t have time to think more and immediately dashed towards Du Canglang, yelling, ”Kill Ye Qing! Kill Ye Qing!”

Wan Yan Yong knew very well that merely relying on their group, they surely couldn’t stand up against Du Canglang. He was shouting this way to divert Du Canglang’s attention; when the Wanyan Family went to attack Ye Qing, Du Canglang would definitely go to save Ye Qing. This way, the rest of the Wanyan Family would have a chance to escape.

Nonetheless, although his plan was good, he overlooked one crucial point: Du Canglang’s strength. He thought he could hold Du Canglang off for a bit, but he was wrong. Just as he charged in front of Du Canglang, Du Canglang struck a palm toward him. The overpowering gust almost made it hard for Wan Yan Yong to breathe. He had no doubt that if this palm hit him, he’d be doomed!

Wan Yan Yong didn’t dare to take Du Canglang’s palm directly, feeling the strong palm force, he quickly turned to dodge. However, Du Canglang didn’t retract his palm but continued forward, striking one of the Wanyan Family members in mid-air, sending him flying. When he landed on the ground, blood was already coming out of his mouth and nose, having been killed by a single palm from Du Canglang.

The man killed was the one closest to Ye Qing, who was prepared to attack Ye Qing but ended up being slain first by Du Canglang. The other members of the Wanyan Family were shocked, and though Wan Yan Yong tried to stand in Du Canglang’s way, it was already too late. Du Canglang seized the chance, charged into the midst of the Wanyan Family members, and with his two palms acting as if a tiger among a flock of sheep, each strike would surely kill. In almost a few breaths, seven or eight people from the Wanyan Family had fallen under Du Canglang’s palms, and they hadn’t even managed to get close to Ye Qing.

Seeing this situation, Wan Yan Yong’s expression changed again. His side, despite the large numbers, was utterly insignificant before Du Canglang. If Du Canglang wanted to kill them, they indeed couldn’t hold him off. If things continued like this, it wouldn’t be long before all the Wanyan Family members would be slain by Du Canglang here.

Seeing the Wanyan Family being beaten back by Du Canglang repeatedly, Wan Yan Yong took a deep breath and suddenly turned to dash out of the Stone Corridor. He knew clearly that the Wanyan Family being blocked by Du Canglang in this cave couldn’t possibly survive. So, he wasn’t planning to bother about them anymore, just desperate to preserve his own life.

Though Du Canglang was pursuing the Wanyan Family, he hadn’t neglected keeping an eye on Wan Yan Yong behind him. Just as Wan Yan Yong turned and started fleeing, he turned and pursued, covering the distance with two steps to confront Wan Yan Yong, striking down toward him.

Wan Yan Yong didn’t expect Du Canglang to pursue him so quickly at this moment. Seeing the impending palm with its formidable momentum, Wan Yan Yong drew a breath of cold air, daring not to hesitate, immediately sidestepping and dodging, barely avoiding Du Canglang’s strike by using all his strength. However, before he could steady himself, Du Canglang charged up to him again, another palm striking toward him.

The gap between Wan Yan Yong’s and Du Canglang’s capabilities was indeed vast. Just like the prior lord, Wan Yan Yong could only attempt to evade before Du Canglang. He continuously dodged several of Du Canglang’s attacks, but eventually, he was forced into a corner. Seeing that the next punch was utterly unavoidable, at that moment, Wan Yan Yong suddenly let out a loud shout, grabbing one Wanyan Family member beside him, pulling him in front of himself to block Du Canglang’s lethal strike.

Du Canglang’s blow landed squarely on this person, undoubtedly devastating their organs, causing immediate death on the spot. In death, his eyes were wide open, staring at Wan Yan Yong behind him in disbelief and reluctance.

The Wanyan Family couldn’t have imagined even in a dream that Wan Yan Yong would do such a thing. Originally panicked and at a loss, the Wanyan Family members were stunned at witnessing this.
