Urban Martial Saint

Taking a plane and leaving would result in being blocked at the airport, but retreating directly is different. Driving offers much more flexibility, at least it’s not a fixed flight, so there’s no need to worry about being surrounded in advance. Therefore, the Great Lord did not let them continue to take the plane but shouted to retreat, preparing to drive away from here!

However, since the Executioner Scholar and the other three had already noticed Ye Qing, how could they let them just run away?

”Ye Qing?” The first to rush over was Slaughter Venerable, looking at Ye Qing in surprise, ”This big beard is Ye Qing?”

”That’s right, it’s him!” Executioner Scholar said deeply.

”Damn, the rumors are indeed true, this surname Ye kid really came to Mount Wendao!” Slaughter Venerable shouted, waving to the two people beside him, ”Truly, seeking everywhere yet found without effort. Quick, catch this kid first!”

Sky-Killing Master and Snake Gentleman had already rushed over, they didn’t intercept those foreigners but blocked Ye Qing instead. The goal was obvious, to take Ye Qing back. As for those foreigners, they were not the focus of attention anymore.

Hearing Slaughter Venerable’s words, Ye Qing was also taken aback. It turns out these four people really came here looking for him. But, from where did these rumors they talked about come from? Ye Qing’s visit to Mount Wendao should only be known by Wuji, did Wuji leak this out? Impossible, right? Is the current top person of the Taoist Sect really this gossipy?

While Ye Qing was pondering, the Executioner Scholar and the other three had surrounded him, and naturally, the people from the Church couldn’t leave either, thus both sides instantly faced off.

The Great Lord frowned deeply, the last thing he wanted was this kind of situation. If Ye Qing were discovered, it would be troublesome, making it harder for them to leave Huaxia. He opted to leave by plane precisely to leave quickly, to avoid any complications arising. Who could have thought, they happened to encounter Huaxia’s Martial Artists at the airport, and four such powerful masters at that, now intercepting them, even running became difficult.

”Looking at the expressions of the four of you, you’re probably not friends with this Ye Qing either!” The Great Lord looked at the four, speaking in a deep tone, ”Ye Qing has some grievances with us to resolve, if possible, we would appreciate it if you could allow us some leeway!”

The Great Lord spoke calmly, and although his tone wasn’t harsh, there was an implied threat. He mentioned Ye Qing having grievances to resolve with them, clearly telling the four that they would not hand over Ye Qing, so it was up to the four to consider this. Despite their great strength, the Church’s strength was not weak, and their numbers far exceeded theirs. In a fight, the Church wouldn’t suffer losses.

The Executioner Scholar and the three others naturally didn’t understand foreign languages, so after the elder next to the Great Lord translated the words, Slaughter Venerable was the first to impatiently respond, ”You bunch of Church bastards dare come to Huaxia to cause trouble, have you forgotten how many of your people were killed here back then? Let me tell you, we are determined to take this person. I advise you to tuck your tails and obediently get lost, otherwise, none of you will return this time!”

Slaughter Venerable was always forceful and straightforward, leaving no face for the other party. After the elder translated his words, the Church members’ expressions instantly changed.

”So you really intend to have a head-on clash with us?” The Great Lord frowned deeply at these four, speaking in a deep tone, ”Do you think you four can really beat us?”

Just as Executioner Scholar was about to speak, Slaughter Venerable had already spoken first, ”You motherfucker, do you even realize where you are, daring to blabber at us here? So what if you have more people? This is Huaxia, not your Church. No matter how many people you have, can it be more than the Martial Artists of Huaxia? Cut the crap, hand over the person quickly, or don’t blame me for showing no mercy!”

Executioner Scholar was immediately upset, he could clearly see the current situation, they four definitely couldn’t beat these Church people. Originally wanting to say a few words to maneuver, but who knew Slaughter Venerable would seize the chance to say it first, making further words unnecessary.

In fact, Executioner Scholar understood Slaughter Venerable’s attitude. Back then, Slaughter Venerable had been ambushed by Church people, because of this, he bore a grudge against them. Seeing Church people, he got angry directly, how could he be polite to these people?

With this kind of talk, nothing more needed to be said. The Great Lord’s expression turned cold, as he suddenly reached out, grabbing Ye Qing and retreating, shouting, ”Kill them!”

The Church members, having been scolded by the Slaughter Venerable, were already furious and itching to make a move. Now that they had the Great Lord’s order, they naturally didn’t hold back and attacked the four people together.

As the Great Lord made a move to seize Ye Qing, the Executioner Scholar had already leapt forward, reaching out to snatch Ye Qing. The main point of contention for both sides was Ye Qing; since the fight started, he certainly intended to grab Ye Qing first.

The Slaughter Venerable and the other two were slightly slower, naturally unable to match the Great Lord, so they turned around and engaged in battle with the other members of the Church.

The Great Lord knew the Executioner Scholar’s strength wasn’t weak, but he hadn’t expected the Executioner Scholar to be so fast, able to catch Ye Qing in such a situation. Seeing the Executioner Scholar about to pull Ye Qing back, he suddenly let go, allowing the Executioner Scholar to seize Ye Qing.

When the Great Lord released his grip, the Executioner Scholar didn’t feel even a hint of happiness; instead, he hurriedly let go of Ye Qing and retreated. Just as the Executioner Scholar took half a step back, the Great Lord was already standing in the spot he had just vacated, the incredibly long nails on his right hand inches away from piercing the Executioner Scholar’s body.

In reality, the Great Lord let go, not intending to give Ye Qing away, but to launch a full-on attack at the Executioner Scholar. The Executioner Scholar was very strong and had previously fought with the Church members, so he naturally knew the Church’s techniques. Seeing the Great Lord release his grip, he knew something was wrong, and thankfully, his reaction was quick enough; he released Ye Qing and retreated in time, thereby saving his life. Had he been too greedy and continued holding onto Ye Qing, wanting to take him away, his retreat wouldn’t have been fast enough, and he wouldn’t have been able to dodge the Great Lord’s strike.

Seeing the Executioner Scholar evade his strike, the Great Lord was somewhat astonished and impressed by the Executioner Scholar’s strength. However, confident in his own abilities, he charged forward without hesitation, engaging the Executioner Scholar.

Faced with such a formidable opponent as the Great Lord, the Executioner Scholar dared not slack off in the slightest, rallying himself completely to battle the Great Lord. Both were top masters in their own right, making the exchange evenly matched. In truth, the Great Lord’s strength was slightly superior to the Executioner Scholar’s. However, in their conditions, this chaotic battle wouldn’t easily reach a clear outcome.

On the other hand, the situation for the Slaughter Venerable and the other two wasn’t going as well. The Slaughter Venerable managed, but the Sky-Killing Master, having had an arm severed by Fu Qingping, was far less capable than before. In a one-on-one fight, he might have a chance, but with so many charging at him, even self-protection became extremely difficult. As for the Snake Gentleman, his situation wasn’t much better. After all, his main ability lay in controlling snake species, and now, fighting without the help of a snake horde was very challenging for him.

The Slaughter Venerable roared angrily but was fierce, fighting two opponents and still holding his ground. However, as the other two around him gradually began to falter, the pressure on him naturally increased greatly. Beset by many attackers, the Slaughter Venerable was furious yet helpless, only able to fight while cursing, ”You Church bastards are truly shameless, bullying with numbers, aren’t you afraid of disgrace spreading around? If you have the guts, duel with the Buddha Master one-on-one!”

No one paid him any attention, as the Church members surged forward, planning a swift conclusion. On the other side, though the Great Lord was slightly stronger than the Executioner Scholar, it wasn’t easy for the two to conclusively determine a winner. Although the Executioner Scholar fared slightly better, he also kept an eye on the situation of the other three. Watching their state, he knew they would certainly not gain any advantage in this fight.

After another brief tussle, the Executioner Scholar suddenly faked a move, forcing the Great Lord to retreat half a step, and then turned and rushed toward the Slaughter Venerable and the others, shouting urgently, ”Big brother, Five Poisons Pill!”

Seeing the Executioner Scholar trying to escape, the Great Lord immediately chased after him. His speed was incredibly fast, closing in on the Executioner Scholar’s back in an instant, reaching out to grab him. However, at that moment, a black sphere came flying towards him. The Great Lord was about to catch it but suddenly caught a whiff of a foul stench, startling him into realizing it must be highly toxic, making him reluctant to catch it. Hastily, he turned a somersault and retreated a few steps to evade the black sphere.

Seizing this opportunity, the Executioner Scholar reached the three others, launching a full assault to push back some of the people encircling them, then shouted loudly, ”Run!”

The Slaughter Venerable and the other two were already fighting with grimy faces and didn’t dare linger in the slightest. Hearing the Executioner Scholar’s cry, the three immediately turned and fled with him, not daring to delay even a second.

The Great Lord was forced back by the Five Poisons Pill, and the other members of the Church were also pushed back by the Executioner Scholar, making pursuit already impossible. Watching the four quickly flee, the Great Lord simply gestured to signal everyone not to chase.

”We can’t stay here long, take Ye Qing and leave now!” the Great Lord said, then turned to look, just in time to see Ye Qing lying on the ground with a pained expression. Nearby, the Five Poisons Pill continued to spin on the ground.
