Urban Martial Saint

This Blood Arrow was fortunately blocked by Nalan Jingwei’s hand. If he had been half a beat slower, the Blood Arrow would have hit his temple, which could have taken Nalan Jingwei’s life.

Looking at Du Canglang again, after spitting out the Blood Arrow, his whole body seemed exhausted and he slowly collapsed to the ground. Blood seeped from the corners of his lips, and blood began to flow from his seven orifices, making him look extremely terrifying.

Nalan Jingwei was ambushed once by Du Canglang, but instead of being angry, he grabbed Du Canglang’s wrist and pulled him up. His hands continuously struck several times on Du Canglang’s body, then pressed his back, continuously infusing Inner Strength.

After a while, Du Canglang finally slowly exhaled a breath. Seeing Du Canglang exhale, Nalan Jingwei also breathed a sigh of relief, then released his hand and stood up.

”That was close!” Nalan Jingwei looked at the already unconscious Du Canglang and said in a low voice: ”This old undying tried to commit suicide by severing his own meridians. Fortunately, I interrupted his True Qi with Inner Strength just in time, thus saving his life. Otherwise, he would probably be dead by now!”

Beside him, Huang Yunfeng and the other two were also Peak Masters, naturally aware of what was happening. Du Canglang spitting out that Blood Arrow was the True Qi gathered in his blood before he severed his meridians. After severing his meridians, the seven orifices would bleed and he would quickly die. Du Canglang did not want to reveal Ye Qing’s whereabouts, nor did he want to be threatened by Nalan Jingwei and others using Wen’er, so he used this method to attempt suicide to end it all. Thanks to Nalan Jingwei’s timely intervention, Du Canglang’s life was preserved. Otherwise, Du Canglang would have been dead by now!

”Prince Nalan, I think Du Canglang will never reveal Ye Qing’s whereabouts. Keeping this person is of no use, so why save him?” Huang Yunfeng asked in surprise.

Nalan Jingwei glanced at Du Canglang and said in a deep voice: ”Whether he reveals Ye Qing’s whereabouts or not, he is still a first-class Peak Master. Although all four of us are Peak Masters, our strength is still too weak. When facing masters like Fu Qingping, we don’t have the power to fight at all. To stand firm in this chaotic world, we need to further enhance our strength!”

”You mean...” An old man nearby looked at Du Canglang and said, ”Bring Du Canglang into our ranks?”

”This should be impossible, right?” Another old man frowned and said, ”Du Canglang has always been accustomed to moving alone, and his strength is extremely strong, not something we can control.”

”Besides, we’ve harmed him, threatened him like that, the enmity is already forged. If he regains his strength, it’s impossible for him not to seek revenge, let alone help us with anything,” Huang Yunfeng also asked in surprise.

”What I want is just his power, not him as a person. As long as his power remains, that’s all that matters!” Nalan Jingwei laughed coldly and said, ”As long as I transfer his power to another person, wouldn’t that mean having another Peak Master?”

”Transfer his power to another person?” Huang Yunfeng and the other three exchanged glances, wondering aloud, ”How is that possible?”

”Why is it impossible?” Nalan Jingwei sneered and said, ”Twenty years ago, didn’t Northern Fist King Li Changqing transfer all his Inner Strength into Ye Qing’s body? In fact, Buddhist and Taoist Magic all have methods of transferring power. And I, have long mastered this method from Xiaolin Temple. As long as there are enough Peak Masters, I can completely form a team of Peak Master warriors of my own!”

Huang Yunfeng and the other three exchanged glances, each with unspeakable shock on their faces. If Nalan Jingwei really has such a method, he could expand the Nalan Family. Thus, the strength of the Nalan Family would be formidable indeed.

Seeing the expressions of the three, Nalan Jingwei knew he had terrified them, which was precisely the effect he wanted. He placed Du Canglang on the sofa nearby, smiled at the three, and said: ”There’s no need for surprise, when the time comes, I will also teach this method to you three. Then, you can establish your own powerful forces!”

Hearing this, the color of Huang Yunfeng and the other three’s faces changed instantly. Huang Yunfeng nervously looked at Nalan Jingwei and said: ”Prince Nalan, you... you really willing to teach us this method?”

The situation of these three people was almost the same, although their individual strength was not weak, the strength of their families was lacking, with only themselves able to uphold appearances. In such a chaotic world, the strength of their families made self-preservation difficult, naturally they were very worried. At this time, if they could obtain this method from Nalan Jingwei, by capturing a few Peak Masters and transferring their power to their own family’s core members, it would be tantamount to creating Peak Masters. The family’s strength would rapidly expand, not only possessing self-preservation but also the capital to compete for the world!

”Does this even need to be said?” Nalan Jingwei smiled: ”Since you three have allied with my Nalan Family, you are my Nalan Family’s most trusted allies. My Nalan Family wouldn’t forget you three when we benefit. Moreover, if your family’s strength can be expanded, it is a good thing for my Nalan Family. After all, we are allies!”

Nalan Jingwei’s words made the three even more excited. Although they understood the principle that there are no free lunches in the world, Nalan Jingwei’s willingness to teach them this method made them feel extremely excited.

Huang Yunfeng shouted: ”Prince Nalan, rest assured, from now on, my Huang Family and the Nalan Family are of one mind. The affairs of the Nalan Family are the affairs of the Huang Family. Should there be any need, my Huang Family will support fully, even through a Sea of Fire!”

”Hahaha...” Nalan Jingwei laughed loudly, patting Huang Yunfeng’s shoulder, slowly turning his gaze to the two beside him. These two also immediately expressed their stance and attitude to Nalan Jingwei, which were essentially formal declarations. What truly shocked them was Nalan Jingwei’s ability to transfer power, making them more vigilant about the strength of the Nalan Family, without underestimating them.

If it was said that their cooperation with Nalan Jingwei was only to deal with Du Canglang and capture Ye Qing for the Buddha’s Relic, now their cooperation was on a higher level. Nalan Jingwei having this method of transferring power showed them the strength of the Nalan Family, so they willingly allied with the Nalan Family. After all, in this chaotic world, they must obtain the protection of a powerful force, otherwise, they would be the first to be eliminated!

Receiving their affirmative answers, Nalan Jingwei was also very satisfied. He glanced at Wen’er next to him, who was anxiously watching the unconscious Du Canglang, not knowing his current condition. Moreover, she was rendered immobile due to her sealed acupoints, unable to check if Du Canglang was alive or dead.

”This girl seems to have a good relationship with Ye Qing. Capturing her may also be used to threaten Ye Qing!” Nalan Jingwei said in a deep voice.

Huang Yunfeng nodded and said: ”Judging by our intelligence, this girl should be the daughter of the Headmaster of the Southern Ridge Sect. Several Headmasters previously saved Ye Qing’s life, and for gratitude, he took her to Shenchuan City for protection. Using her to threaten Ye Qing shouldn’t be difficult!”

”That’s good!” Nalan Jingwei nodded slowly, saying deeply: ”The key now is to find out Ye Qing’s whereabouts. No news is coming from Shenchuan City, they don’t seem to have seen Ye Qing, and probably very few people know where Ye Qing is now. We must find Ye Qing quickly; if others get ahead of us, it could be troublesome!”

With this, everyone nodded, recognizing it as the most crucial task.

While the four discussed how to find Ye Qing, there was suddenly a knock on the door from outside. All four turned, seeing a middle-aged man standing outside, a member of the Huang Family. Judging by his expression, there must be some critical matter.

To demonstrate his sincerity in cooperating with the Nalan Family, Huang Yunfeng gestured for him to come in, asking: ”What’s happened?”

The man glanced at Nalan Jingwei and the others, hesitating for a moment, but Huang Yunfeng immediately said: ”Speak freely. From now on, our Huang Family and the Nalan Family are as one; nothing needs to be concealed!”

Following Huang Yunfeng’s words, the man hesitated no longer and said solemnly: ”Our brothers have sent word; we’ve just tracked the movements of the Executioner Scholar’s group.”

”Oh?” All four inside frowned. The Executioner Scholar’s group, of course, they knew them, very clear about their prowess; they were formidable opponents too. Receiving news from the Huang Family about this group suggests they might have encountered something significant.

”Where are they?” Huang Yunfeng asked hurriedly.

The man replied: ”Just less than one hundred kilometers away from here in Honglan County.”

Nalan Jingwei and the other three stood up simultaneously; they hadn’t expected the Executioner Scholar’s group to be so close, this was indeed significant.

”Are they preparing to come for us?” Nalan Jingwei asked in a deep voice, the other three also staring intensely at the man, each with vigilant expressions.

”Probably not...” The man hesitated, then whispered: ”Our intelligence suggests this group has found a trace of Ye Qing, pursuing him continuously!”

”What!?” All four inside exclaimed simultaneously, faces marked by excitement and shock. They were worried about finding Ye Qing, but this quickly brought news about him, indeed significant!
