Urban Martial Saint

The few people who were engaged in a chaotic battle nearby saw Helian Qingfeng injured and immediately stopped fighting, hastily rushing over to protect Helian Qingfeng.

Meanwhile, Liu Mubai was already furious and wouldn’t let these people retreat so easily. He took a few steps forward, grabbed one of them, and directly dragged him back.

The person was forced to engage in battle with Liu Mubai again. Seeing this, the three others quickly wanted to come and help. However, Ye Qing and Huangfu Ziyu were not idle either; they immediately followed and joined the skirmish, and the two sides were once again entangled in a chaotic fight.

However, the current situation was extremely dire for Helian Qingfeng’s group of four. The Seven-Star Ancient Sword in Ye Qing’s hand was incredibly powerful; none of the four could withstand it head-on. In a real fight, the Sky-Piercing Mouse facing Ye Qing was forced to retreat continuously, completely unable to retaliate. If things continued like this, it’s more likely than not that these four people would end up staying here!

In truth, Ye Qing showed restraint. With his current skill and the power of the Seven-Star Ancient Sword, he could have killed the Sky-Piercing Mouse in no time. However, Ye Qing didn’t want to completely alienate the Meng District General Helian Tiehua, so he held back a bit, allowing the Sky-Piercing Mouse to struggle a while longer.

However, Huangfu Ziyu and Liu Mubai did not show such mercy. Especially Huangfu Ziyu, who was furious at Helian Qingfeng’s disrespectful words towards the Southern Fist King Shen Tianjun, and thus struck mercilessly. The taciturn man confronting her, though strong, was ultimately a bit weaker in skills compared to Huangfu Ziyu. After about five minutes of skirmishing, he fell short, receiving a Wing Chun Inch Punch from Huangfu Ziyu right under his left rib. No matter how strong he was, that punch directly broke three of his ribs, forcing him back a few steps. He managed to stand, but had no strength left to fight.

After dealing with the taciturn man, Huangfu Ziyu didn’t pause at all. In two steps, she rushed to the Sky-Piercing Mouse’s side, raising her hand to grab his neck.

The Sky-Piercing Mouse was desperately trying to avoid the Seven-Star Ancient Sword in Ye Qing’s hand, when suddenly his vision blurred, realizing something was wrong. He immediately turned to dodge. However fast he was, it was too late. Although he dodged Huangfu Ziyu’s grab, he was still hit by her punch on the back, almost knocking him to the ground in pain.

Seeing Huangfu Ziyu preparing to deliver a lethal blow, Ye Qing knew that once she struck, the Sky-Piercing Mouse would certainly face a grim fate. He immediately rushed ahead of Huangfu Ziyu, using a ”Stick to the Mountain” move to knock the Sky-Piercing Mouse far away. Like Helian Qingfeng, he fell to the ground, lacking the strength to continue fighting.

With these two defeated, the remaining two realized the situation was dire. One of them gave a loud shout and went all out to hold back Liu Mubai. The other quickly backed away, rushing to Helian Qingfeng’s side, picked him up on his back, and turned to run.

These people were all trained by the Meng District General Helian Tiehua, and they had absolute obedience to him. Helian Qingfeng, after all, was Helian Tiehua’s own son. In such a situation, if they continued to fight, Helian Qingfeng might be in danger. So, they immediately made a choice: one would escape with Helian Qingfeng, while the remaining one would hold back Ye Qing and the others to buy time.

Huangfu Ziyu wanted to pursue, but was directly stopped by Ye Qing, who shook his head at her, saying, ”There’s not much of a grudge; no need to go to extremes!”

Huangfu Ziyu glanced at Ye Qing and then slowly retreated. With her mischievous nature, hardly anyone could change her mind, except for Ye Qing.

Now only one remained, and Liu Mubai immediately found it much easier. He shook off his previous slump, shouted loudly, and attacked the man with both fists.

The man fighting Liu Mubai had decent skills, but compared to Liu Mubai, he was still weaker. Moreover, being in such a disadvantageous position, he lost his composure. Facing Liu Mubai’s full-force counterattack, he could only defend. It didn’t take long before Liu Mubai landed a heavy punch on his chest, forcing him back three steps, coughing up blood several times. He managed to stand, but his face had turned the color of pale gold, drained of any color, clearly suffering internal injuries.

Liu Mubai stood proudly, coldly watching the three injured men, and said in a deep voice, ”Go back and tell Helian Qingfeng that this is between him and me. If he wants revenge, he can come find me anytime. But it has nothing to do with my friends. If he dares to go after my friends again and I meet him next time, I won’t let him leave alive!”

The three men frowned tightly, each with a cold expression. The Sky-Piercing Mouse slowly nodded and said solemnly, ”We’ll remember this account. Someday, the Twelve Zodiacs will come to settle it with you personally!”

”Hmph, if you say it like that, I might as well just kill you now!” Huangfu Ziyu said, grinding her palms, ”To prevent you from coming back to cause trouble for me later!”

Hearing this, the trio froze; they hadn’t expected Huangfu Ziyu to be so unconventional.

”You... you just said you would let us go back. Aren’t you men of your word?” the Sky-Piercing Mouse asked anxiously.

”They are men of their word. Of course, they keep their promises. But I’m not a man!” Huangfu Ziyu smiled slightly and said, ”I’m just a little woman. If they don’t kill you, I can! What? Do you think I can’t kill the three of you by myself?”

The three of them looked at each other, faces full of helplessness. If they were not injured, Huangfu Ziyu surely wouldn’t be a match for the three of them. However, now they were all seriously injured, without the ability to fight again. At this moment, forget Huangfu Ziyu, anyone else would easily be able to kill them.

”Alright, Ziyu, stop scaring them!” Ye Qing stepped in front of Huangfu Ziyu and said in a deep voice, ”I don’t care if you are part of the Twelve Zodiacs or the Thirteen Zodiacs, anyway, Liu Mubai is my brother, he is my friend. His business is my business. Today, I spare you. If you come back to trouble us again, don’t blame my longsword for being merciless!”

As Ye Qing spoke, he casually waved the Seven-Star Ancient Sword in his hand. The ancient sword emitted a series of slight sword hums. Although the sound wasn’t loud, it made the three of them visibly flustered and embarrassed.

”Since Ye Zi pleaded for you, this girl will let you off this time!” Huangfu Ziyu waved her hand and said, ”Scram!”

Huangfu Ziyu’s words made the three of them angry again, seeing the change in their expressions, Huangfu Ziyu’s eyes widened, ”What? You don’t want to leave? If you don’t leave, I’ll change my mind!”

The three of them had never met someone as unpredictable as Huangfu Ziyu in their lives. Hearing this, they didn’t dare to cast another look at Huangfu Ziyu, hurriedly turned around, and left. None of them dared to stay even for a moment, fearing that Huangfu Ziyu might actually kill them.

Seeing the three escape in a panic, over here, Huangfu Ziyu laughed uproariously, and even Liu Mubai’s lips curved into a slight smile. While in the Meng District, he had also clashed with these people several times. Although he had not suffered too much loss, he had never been able to settle the score with them so proudly. At this moment, his mood reached its pinnacle!

”Oh no!” Suddenly, Huangfu Ziyu shrieked in surprise, startling Ye Qing and Liu Mubai.

”What is it?” Ye Qing asked curiously.

”Our flight...” Huangfu Ziyu’s eyes widened, ”has already taken off!”

Ye Qing checked the time and couldn’t help but feel a bit helpless, indeed, the flight had already departed.

”It seems we’ll have to stay here for a night.” Ye Qing glanced at Liu Mubai, smiling, ”Big Brother Liu, since we are already in the Capital, how about we go for a stroll?”

Liu Mubai sighed, ”Ye Zi, I’m sorry for delaying you!”

”Big Brother Liu, since we’re brothers, no need to say such things.” Ye Qing patted Liu Mubai’s shoulder, ”Come on, let’s consider it a trip. Anyway, there’s nothing urgent, whether we return early or late doesn’t make much difference!”

Liu Mubai nodded and joined Ye Qing and Huangfu Ziyu as they headed straight into the city. Of course, once in the city, the first priority was to find a hotel since Ye Qing was still carrying the Overlord Spear. Together with the box, it weighed about ninety pounds. Carrying it was quite burdensome for Ye Qing, akin to seeking self-inflicted trouble to go sightseeing with it.

On the other side, the only uninjured man was carrying Helian Qingfeng to escape. He did not know Ye Qing was not pursuing them, so he ran quickly, fearing Ye Qing would catch up from behind. He ran for roughly five or six miles until he could no longer run. Only then did he look back, finding no one was following them.

The man finally heaved a sigh of relief, but looking around, he found himself in an increasingly desolate place. After all, the airport was built in a relatively remote area, and this place was underdeveloped. By the time he reached here, there wasn’t a soul to be seen in the vicinity, just small mounds.

”Young Master? Young Master?” The man softly called Helian Qingfeng’s name twice. Helian Qingfeng slowly opened his eyes, looked around, and weakly asked, ”Where is this place?”

”I don’t know either.” The man paused and said in a low voice, ”Young Master, Liu Mubai doesn’t know where to chase us right now. Should we hide in the city first, or should we avoid the city?”

Helian Qingfeng gritted his teeth, struggled to sit up, and said in a deep voice, ”Don’t do anything, first call my father!”
