Urban Martial Saint

Ye Qing was now in Zihe Hotel, but he was unconscious there.

Ye Qing was still lying on the bed, struck in the chest by an acupoint by Ou Keren. The injury was not light. However, that was not much of a problem for him, given that his body was protected by his Internal Breath. It was just that he hadn’t slept for a whole day and night before, and after causing a commotion at the Lin family, he had already exhausted a lot of strength.

At the clinic, he had also been shot. Although it was just a flesh wound, he had lost a lot of blood. In addition, he hadn’t eaten anything all day, and he was tired, hungry, sleepy, and weak. So when Ou Keren struck him, he finally couldn’t hold on and passed out.

Ou Keren had managed with great difficulty to get Ye Qing into a hotel room. Looking at Ye Qing lying unconscious on the bed, her expression was full of worry.

”Ye, I didn’t do it on purpose, please don’t be in trouble,” Ou Keren said in a low voice sitting beside the bed. Sadly, Ye Qing was unconscious and couldn’t hear her words.

Ou Keren sat by the bed for nearly half an hour, and seeing that Ye Qing still showed no sign of waking up, she couldn’t help but get anxious. She knew her own strength, pointing at the major acupoints indeed could temporarily deprive people of their ability to move, and even make them pass out.

But, this was all relative. If someone’s body was very weak, they might pass out for a long time. But for someone with strength like Ye Qing, he shouldn’t be unconscious just from an acupoint strike. However, Ye Qing had been unconscious for so long, which made her have to wonder if, in her panic, she had struck too hard and actually injured Ye Qing’s vital acupoints.

If that were really the case, then wouldn’t Ye Qing be in mortal danger?

With this thought, Ou Keren grew anxious. Although she had known Ye Qing for less than two days, she was sure that Ye was definitely a good person. Moreover, Ye Qing had tackled her just to save her. If she had mistakenly caused Ye Qing to lose his life, she would feel guilty for the rest of her life.

Looking at Ye Qing unconscious, Ou Keren hesitated for a moment and then suddenly bit her lip as if making a decision. She turned and locked the door from inside, then walked over to the bed. Taking a deep breath, she bent down to help Ye Qing sit up and slowly took off his outer clothes.

With the jacket off, Ye Qing’s fit upper body was revealed, with clearly defined muscles that made the girl’s heart beat wildly. Ou Keren turned her head aside, not daring to look at Ye Qing’s body. But her hands didn’t stop, and she slowly took off Ye Qing’s pants as well.

Because she was not looking at Ye Qing, her jade hands occasionally touched some places they shouldn’t have. That novel sensation made her feel an inexplicable heat throughout her body and an indescribable longing. The lake of her heart rippled with unrest.

Finally having taken off Ye Qing’s clothes, leaving only his underwear, Ou Keren’s pretty face blushed, desperate not to look but unable to help herself.

Ou Keren took several deep breaths to calm her fluctuating emotions and took out a neatly folded leather pouch from her body.

Upon opening the leather pouch, it revealed numerous steel needles inside, tightly packed. If counted carefully, there would be at least a hundred needles.

”Grandfather had said, if a major acupoint sustained serious injury, it means the injury is where the Meridians intersect. These places, if injured, can affect the circulation of Chi throughout the body, leading to fainting from minor injuries and severe injuries or even death.” Ou Keren looked at Ye Qing and said, ”Ye, given your current condition, you must have sustained a serious injury.

It seems that the only option is to try the Hundred Apertures Penetration that my grandfather mentioned, to unblock the acupoint Meridians and stimulate the circulation of Chi to treat the injured acupoints!”

Ou Keren carefully selected the steel needles she would need, looked at Ye Qing, who was unconscious on the bed, and said softly, ”Ye, my Cultivation Power is not sufficient, so I can only use steel needles to replace the Inner Strength. It is probably impossible to open a hundred acupoints, so let’s start by trying to open thirty-six major acupoints. Hopefully, it will be effective.”

As she spoke, Ou Keren slowly inserted the first steel needle into the first major acupoint on Ye Qing’s head. There are thirty-six major acupoints all over the human body, also known as thirty-six death points. If struck heavily, most likely it would result in death.

However, in the hands of a medical expert, these thirty-six death points are also the most effective to stimulate the Life Force of the body and are crucial for treating injuries and healing.

Ou Keren, following her grandfather’s instructions, carefully inserted all thirty-six steel needles into Ye Qing’s thirty-six major acupoints. Although there weren’t many acupoints to identify, she needed to precisely locate each one and carefully insert each needle, which took time and effort. By the time she finished inserting all the needles, her face was covered in sweat.

Doing something like this was more exhausting than fighting a few bouts.

After finally inserting all the needles and seeing that Ye Qing showed no abnormal reaction, she breathed a sigh of relief. Ye Qing’s lack of reaction indicated that the needles had not affected his life, and she hadn’t made a mistake in her technique.

”Ye, I hope you get well soon!” Ou Keren murmured as she watched Ye Qing.

Just at that moment, there was suddenly a knock on the door from outside.

Ou Keren’s expression changed; she had no acquaintances in Shenchuan City, and nobody knew about her coming here. Who could it be looking for her at this time?

”Who is it?” Ou Keren called out loudly.

”Miss, it’s me; you left your ID card downstairs,” the voice of the hotel owner came from outside.

Ou Keren breathed a sigh of relief and walked to open the door; however, her complexion suddenly changed. She felt in her pocket and found that the ID card was still there. Clearly, the owner was lying.

Ou Keren hastily retreated several steps, without a guess she knew that someone must have come looking again. She could almost be certain that the visitors were Ye Qing’s enemies; otherwise, they wouldn’t have been so premeditated. It could even be some sort of private detective.

”Miss, open the door, I’ll give you my ID,” the owner was still shouting outside.

”No need, I’ll come down and get it later!” Ou Keren replied while turning to look at the window behind her, looking for a possible escape route.

Unfortunately, the window had a steel guard outside, making it impossible to jump out. Moreover, the steel needles on Ye Qing’s body had just been placed, and their effect had not yet manifested. Removing them rashly at this time would only make his condition more dangerous, and Ou Keren simply could not run.

Murmurs and whispers came from outside, followed by the sound of someone attempting to open the door with keys. It was clear that the people outside were not pretending anymore, ready to force their way in.

Ou Keren frowned tightly; she casually took out two six-inch-long steel needles from the cowhide bag beside her and gripped them tightly, staring at the door.

Although the people outside had the keys, the door was double locked. They managed to unlock it from outside but could not open the door. The people outside were clearly losing patience and began kicking at the door.

The hotel’s door wasn’t very sturdy and was kicked open in less than three kicks. A dozen or so young men stood at the doorway, while the hotel owner cautiously hid at a distance, shivering as he observed the situation. He had no idea what was happening.

Seeing the number of people entering, Ou Keren’s face changed color, but she still scolded sharply, ”Who are you? I’m a police officer!”

”A policewoman, eh?” The young man in the lead scanned Ou Keren brazenly, then looked at the nearly naked Ye Qing on the bed and laughed insolently, ”Oh, so the policewoman likes this flavor? How’s his thing performing? If it’s not up to par, my brothers and I are at your disposal to choose from!”

The dozen young men laughed raucously, not taking Ou Keren’s status as a police officer seriously at all.

The hotel owner pleaded from his location almost pitifully, ”Brother Sanying, can... can you take your business outside? Don’t... don’t involve me, please...”

A young man turned his head and cursed angrily, ”If you don’t want to die, then scram to the side; one more word, and you’ll be the first one I take down!”

The hotel owner immediately scurried down the stairs, not daring to linger a moment longer.

The young leader then mockingly said to Ou Keren, ”Excuse me, Miss Policewoman, but could you step aside? My brothers and I have serious business to attend to. After we’re done with our business, we can have a good time!”

Ou Keren, who had never been so insulted, was so angry her pretty face turned beet-red as she said sternly, ”You bunch of rascals, are you here looking for Ye?”

”Originally we came for him, but seeing the beautiful Miss Policewoman, I finally understand why God sent me here,” the young leader exaggeratedly said, ”This is a destined encounter written in the stars. Miss Beautiful Policewoman, do you have time to go for a ride with me later?”

”Go for a ride yourself!” As Ou Keren spoke, she suddenly stepped forward, her hands thrusting the steel needles straight at the young man.

The young man was no pushover; watching as Ou Keren moved quickly, he immediately stepped back and aimed a kick straight at Ou Keren’s wrist.

The young man moved quickly, seemingly well-trained. He unleashed a kick that almost caught Ou Keren’s wrist, but at that moment, Ou Keren flipped the steel needle in her hand and thrust it towards his foot.

”Oh, Miss Beautiful Policewoman, aren’t you being a bit too cruel?” The young man hastily withdrew his foot and laughed, ”You’re not even married, and you already want to murder your future husband?”

Ou Keren, red-faced with rage, didn’t say another word and thrust with the needle again.

After a few exchanges with Ou Keren, the young man barely avoided the steel needles twice and finally realized that the seemingly delicate girl in front of him was not to be underestimated.

”The little policewoman is quite spicy,” the young man said, taking a step back and snickering, ”Seems like I’ll be at a disadvantage if I keep playing with you. However, I’ve got so many brothers here—it’ll be so much fun if we all join in. Come on, Miss Policewoman, let’s see whether your steel needles are more effective or our brothers’ clubs!”

As the young man spoke, he waved his hand, and the dozen or so men behind him immediately rushed towards Ou Keren.

Ou Keren clenched the steel needles in her hands and looked at Ye Qing, who was still unconscious behind her, knowing she couldn’t step back. Otherwise, Ye Qing would surely not escape unscathed!
