Urban Martial Saint

The Great Lord was leading the Church members to retreat, preparing to enter another cave to seek a possible savior.

Meanwhile, Ye Qing was waiting for this opportunity. Seeing the Church and Wo Country’s Ninja retreating, he retracted the Tianzhu Sword. The Birdman Sculpture had been chopped off its hands and wings by him, but the height still remained. Ye Qing climbed onto the Birdman Sculpture, stared at its furious eyes, but completely ignored it, jumped up directly, and grabbed the glowing orb on the top of its head.

After landing, Ye Qing did not immediately inspect the orb but instead wielded the Tianzhu Sword again, turning to hack at the Birdman Sculpture once more.

Just as Ye Qing had anticipated, without the orb on its head, the Birdman Sculpture indeed started moving. However, Ye Qing had already hacked it into remnants, and it had just awakened, moving slowly, unable even to dodge, getting directly sliced into fragments by Ye Qing, shattering like King Raph, pieces scattered on the ground.

Having dealt with the Birdman Sculpture, Ye Qing then picked up the orb and carefully examined it. As expected, there was indeed a Buddha’s Relic inside. This time, Ye Qing was not polite and smashed the orb to take out the Buddha’s Relic, held it in his palm, and then turned to run out.

The Church members had clearly gone into another entrance, Ye Qing couldn’t let them find an opportunity, so he had to go in advance and deal with the sculptures inside the cave first.

As soon as he ran out of the cave, Ye Qing felt something was wrong in his hand. Opening his hand to take a look, sure enough, the Buddha’s Relic had already disappeared. Ye Qing promptly took off his right shoe and sock, and after careful inspection, found the Buddha’s Relic had indeed entered his right ankle, just as he had anticipated.

Looking at the Buddha’s Relic, Ye Qing helplessly smiled. If things continued like this, would he become a collector of Buddha’s Relics? All these Buddha’s Relics had burrowed into his body, what was going on here?

Ye Qing couldn’t figure out the reason, so he simply ignored it. Seeing the Church members leading Wo Country’s Ninja towards another cave, Ye Qing immediately dashed over, rushed in before they entered.

Seeing Ye Qing enter, the Great Lord knew something was wrong, stomped his foot and shouted: ”Follow him quickly! If it’s indeed the ancestor of the Dark Church, don’t let him kill first!”

Ye Qing ran far enough not to hear the Great Lord’s shout. Wo Country’s Ninja couldn’t understand what he was saying, but they weren’t foolish either, seeing the Church members sprinting towards the cave, they surely deduced that there was something inside.

”Stop them, don’t let them enter the cave!” shouted the Great Elder loudly.

Wo Country’s Ninja, obeying the Great Elder’s orders, launched an intense attack, halting the Church members, trying to block them outside the cave. The Church members were furious, wanting to rush into the cave, but entering wasn’t that easy.

However, Ye Qing had already entered the cave and saw the situation inside. Similar to the previous cave, there was a Birdman Sculpture, almost identical to the one earlier, with a golden glowing orb on its head.

With the last experience, Ye Qing naturally showed no courtesy, went straight to frantically chop, almost destroying the sculpture, then went up to retrieve the Buddha’s Relic. Then, he struck once more, completely shattering the sculpture, rendering it unable to move, then stopped.

Obtaining the Buddha’s Relic, Ye Qing did not think further, took the Buddha’s Relic and ran outside. Just reaching the exit, outside the Church and Wo Country’s Ninja were still battling.

During Ye Qing’s time in the cave, the fight outside grew fiercer, with each side having two injured members collapsed on the ground, now only four or five people left still in combat.

The Great Lord, seemingly regaining some strength, was assisting the Church members against Wo Country’s Ninja. Upon seeing Ye Qing rush out, the Great Lord’s expression changed drastically. He didn’t need to think at all to realize what happened inside the cave. Undoubtedly, whoever was inside had been sliced into pieces by Ye Qing.

”This way!” the Great Lord shouted softly, didn’t even bother to check inside the cave, but instead turned and rushed towards the cave behind him.

Wo Country’s Ninja would not let them escape, simultaneously attacking to prevent, and both sides clashed at this exit. So before they could enter, Ye Qing rushed in first.

Ye Qing originally thought this cave would be similar to the previous three caves, so when he rushed in, he wasn’t on guard and was searching for the sculpture. However, before he found the sculpture, a gust of wind suddenly came from behind.

Without thinking too much, Ye Qing hurriedly bent over trying to dodge. However, he wasn’t fast enough and was hit on the back by a huge object, which sent him flying. Fortunately, Ye Qing’s body was protected by three energies, so he wasn’t injured, but when he got up, half of his clothes on his back fell as if they had been cut by a sharp blade.

He hadn’t had time to check his clothes when another gust of wind came. This time, Ye Qing didn’t dare think any more and quickly rolled on the ground, just avoiding a giant axe landing where he just stood. The blade of this giant axe was a meter wide, capable of splitting a person in half if it struck them.

Dodging this attack, Ye Qing finally saw clearly the appearance of the person who attacked him from behind. It was a man about ten feet tall, wearing black armor, exuding a bloodthirsty aura. He held a giant axe with a long handle in both hands, with a handle about three meters long, and the giant axe was as large as a millstone. Such a weapon, when wielded, was undoubtedly a lethal weapon.

Looking again at this man, aside from his abnormal height, he looked much like a human in other aspects. Especially the armor he wore, exuding a dominating aura, and the long-handled giant axe, made him look like a general who had been through bloody battles. Full of aura, yet also giving off a terrifying vibe.

The man’s head was also covered by armor, so Ye Qing couldn’t see his features. His eyes were tightly closed, yet he could clearly know Ye Qing’s position. As soon as Ye Qing looked at him, the man charged over with the giant axe and slashed at Ye Qing again.

Although Ye Qing had the Vajra Indestructible Body to protect him, he didn’t want to take hits like this. He quickly got up and dodged the man’s giant axe, then shouted loudly, ”Who are you? Why are you attacking me?”

There was no response, the man continued to chase after Ye Qing and slashed down with his axe again. Seeing his demeanor, it seemed like he was killing for the sake of killing!

”Damn you!” After being repeatedly axed by this man, even Ye Qing’s good temper couldn’t hold it, he cursed angrily. Before he could get up, another axe came chopping down.

Ye Qing had no way to dodge and could only raise his Tianzhu Sword to block the man’s axe. Originally, he wanted to use the three energies within him to kill the man, but the Tianzhu Sword blocked the man’s axe, yet the three energies within him seemed to vanish, providing no help against the man.

”What’s going on?” Ye Qing was puzzled, knowing that the three energies within him were very useful in this cave. The previous three sculptures and those werewolves were all dealt with by these three energies. But why didn’t they work this time? Why didn’t the three energies help him against this man?

Before Ye Qing could think further, the man’s second axe came down again. Ye Qing tried once more, but the result was the same, the three energies within him didn’t help against the man at all.

Moreover, during this time, Ye Qing also noticed that the cave had no light, indicating there was no Buddha’s Relic here. If it wasn’t for the Church and Japan’s ninja fighting at the entrance with light coming in from outside, this place would probably be completely dark.

Ye Qing dodged the man’s attack, got up, and ran while observing his surroundings. Not too far away, another gust of strong wind came rushing toward him. Ye Qing clearly saw this time it was a long halberd, chopping down at him. Behind the long halberd was another man, over three meters tall, dressed similarly to the previous man, with a stature that didn’t resemble a human at all.

Hastily dodging the long halberd, he turned to look and saw the axeman hadn’t caught up, but stood about three meters away, swinging his giant axe. Judging by his demeanor, if Ye Qing approached him, he would definitely chop Ye Qing to pieces without hesitation.

The man with the long halberd, meanwhile, didn’t stop, raising his halberd again to slash at Ye Qing, leaving him with no breather, and forcing him to get up and dodge again.

Repeatedly forced back several steps by this man, Ye Qing found himself next to the axeman again. This time, the axeman didn’t hold back, lifting his giant axe and swinging it at Ye Qing. However, the man with the long halberd didn’t pursue and stood three meters away just like the axeman, swinging his long halberd.

While dodging the giant axe, Ye Qing pondered. These two men would never attack simultaneously. Their boundaries were distinct, and neither trespassed on the other’s territory. What on earth was going on? Could it be that these two men each had their own territory? Neither could enter the other’s domain, which is why they acted this way?

This thought triggered an idea in Ye Qing’s mind. After dodging an attack from the giant axe, he suddenly jumped, charging into the space between the axeman and the long halberd man. There was about three meters between them, and neither had crossed this distance. According to Ye Qing’s guess, this space was the neutral zone between their territories. Would these two men cross into it to attack him?
