Urban Martial Saint

Standing outside Mount Beimang, Executioner Scholar furrowed his brow tightly. Looking at Mount Beimang in front of him, he said in a deep voice, ”These people actually entered Mount Beimang, what on earth is going on? Why did they go into Mount Beimang?”

Seeing Mount Beimang, Nalan Jingwei couldn’t help but recall the events that occurred there before. Back then, he intended to intercept the people from the South Ridge Sect here and recruit them for his own purposes. Unexpectedly, it was here that he encountered the Corpse Ghost Dragon, which had just emerged from the Demon Hideout Cave, causing Luan Ping to fall into its hands, and he himself nearly met his end here. Given the strength of the Corpse Ghost Dragon, he didn’t dare to stay outside Mount Beimang at that time, indicating his fear of it. If even the Corpse Ghost Dragon feared Mount Beimang so much, how much more would Nalan Jingwei?

Therefore, in his heart, Nalan Jingwei still harbors an almost nightmarish feeling towards Mount Beimang; he’s truly reluctant to enter it again.

However, looking at the current situation, it’s entirely impossible for him not to enter Mount Beimang. Ye Qing and the members of the Church have entered Mount Beimang, and if he wants to compete for the Buddha’s Relic, he must enter Mount Beimang. Otherwise, if others get there first, he will end up with nothing.

”Ye’s craftiness knows no bounds, it must be him who led the Church members into Mount Beimang!” Nalan Jingwei furrowed his brow tightly, saying in a deep voice, ”The Demon Hideout Cave inside Mount Beimang is extremely dangerous, if we are to enter Mount Beimang, everyone must be very careful. If we can avoid entering the Demon Hideout Cave, we should try not to go in!”

The crowd exchanged glances, and Executioner Scholar spoke deeply, saying, ”We’ve all come here, I think, avoiding the Demon Hideout Cave is probably impossible. But the most important thing is to ask, has anyone of you been in the Demon Hideout Cave before? Who knows the situation inside?”

Once again, the crowd exchanged glances. They had heard many legends about the Demon Hideout Cave in Mount Beimang. However, few had actually entered it. In fact, they knew people who had gone to Mount Beimang before. But most of these people never came out, hence, Mount Beimang had become even more terrifying in their minds.

While the crowd was silent, Sky-Killing Master slowly stepped forward and spoke deeply, saying, ”I’ve been in before.”

”Oh?” The crowd immediately looked at Sky-Killing Master. Nalan Jingwei was delighted and said, ”Someone has been in, it’s much easier then. Given the circumstances, you can lead the way later, let’s check out the specific situation inside.”

Sky-Killing Master took a deep breath, looked at everyone, and said in a deep voice, ”Leading the way is no problem, but I want to repeat what Nalan Jingwei just said. That Demon Hideout Cave, everyone should avoid entering if possible!”

When this was said by Nalan Jingwei, the crowd just casually listened. But coming from Sky-Killing Master, the crowd couldn’t help but grow solemn. After all, Nalan Jingwei had never been in the Demon Hideout Cave, he had no authority to speak about the situation inside. Yet Sky-Killing Master had been inside, and even he said such things, indicating just how dangerous it truly was.

Seeing the solemn expressions on their faces, Executioner Scholar coughed lightly and said, ”If we hurry inside, maybe we can stop them before they enter the Demon Hideout Cave. That way, we won’t have to risk entering the Demon Hideout Cave and worry about how dangerous it might be!”

Executioner Scholar’s words immediately awakened the crowd, and they shouted to hurry into the mountain to intercept the Church members before they enter the Demon Hideout Cave. At the end of the day, they still didn’t want to enter the Demon Hideout Cave.

Under the leadership of Sky-Killing Master, the crowd followed the mountain path, heading straight towards the Demon Hideout Cave. Of course, along the way, Snake Gentleman was constantly tracking the Church members’ traces, and due to their speed, the distance from the Church members was getting increasingly closer.

Mainly because Ye Qing was delaying them at the front. Although Nalan Jingwei and his group arrived somewhat late, they gradually caught up. When they were about an hour away from the Demon Hideout Cave, Nalan Jingwei and his group finally caught up with the Church members.

Although the Great Lord was prepared, when actually being caught, they had no way to avoid it. An inevitable skirmish ensued, and the outcome was very clear, the Church members were naturally outmatched. Fortunately, they had the Devouring Demon Flower to quickly heal injuries, otherwise, they would have been swiftly defeated.

The Great Lord’s power was formidable, but being surrounded by both Nalan Jingwei and Executioner Scholar, he fought with difficulty, let alone lending aid to others. Seeing his side being driven back, he was deeply anxious but helpless. Luckily, the existence of the Devouring Demon Flower allowed them to persist for a while longer, and this battle has shown the Great Lord the miraculous effects of it, and he desired it even more, wishing to quickly escape and seize those Devouring Demon Flowers from Huaxia’s people.

Nevertheless, the current situation made it impossible for him to escape. His people were fighting increasingly difficult battles, and if it continued like this, they would surely be left here, not to mention pursuing the Devouring Demon Flower.

Ye Qing stood nearby, despite the intense skirmish, no one attacked him. After all, he was linked with the Buddha’s Relic, and everyone wanted to keep him alive. The situation was clear, Huaxia’s masters and the Church were fighting here; whoever won would seize him. Ye Qing had no power and couldn’t change the situation. His only option was to lead them to the Demon Hideout Cave and use it against them.

But how to lure them to the Demon Hideout Cave was a very difficult task.

After pondering for a moment, Ye Qing suddenly shouted loudly in a foreign language, ”Great Lord, we are running low on Healing Holy Medicine, at this rate we will undoubtedly lose!”

The Great Lord was attacking both Nalan Jingwei and Executioner Scholar fiercely. Upon hearing this, he felt a chill. He had taken the Devouring Demon Flower from Ye Qing, and knew exactly how much of it there was. The amount was indeed small. For ten people consuming it together, it wouldn’t last long. Just as Ye Qing said, if they exhaust all the Devouring Demon Flowers, the Church would lose its only reliance, leading them to inevitable defeat.

”How far is the Demon Hideout Cave from here?” The Great Lord suddenly asked loudly.

Ye Qing was secretly pleased; his shout achieved the desired effect. The Great Lord started asking about the Demon Hideout Cave, indicating he was ready to lead them to breakthrough.

The situation was clear: they were certainly not a match for Huaxia’s people. With the Devouring Demon Flowers, they could contend with Huaxia’s masters, but as the flowers were gradually depleted, they would gradually lose. Therefore, the Church members had only one option: to break through swiftly and reach the Demon Hideout Cave. By replenishing the Devouring Demon Flowers inside, they could fight Huaxia’s people again and have a chance at victory. Otherwise, they would certainly perish here.

The Great Lord was quick-witted and promptly thought of this strategy, hence his inquiry about the distance to the Demon Hideout Cave. However, amidst the skirmish, he had no time to ponder Ye Qing’s intentions. Ye Qing’s words aimed at leading them to the Demon Hideout Cave, using it against them, and the Great Lord just happened to cooperate with this plan perfectly.

”About half an hour’s journey away,” Ye Qing shouted loudly. They were already inside Stone Mountain, the Demon Hideout Cave was not far. In fact, Ye Qing mentioned half an hour’s journey based on the time it took him to reach inside earlier. When he first entered the Demon Hideout Cave, he wasn’t powerful, and his speed was slow. The Church members, known for their speed, could cover that distance in less than ten minutes.

The Great Lord felt his heart stir slightly, glancing around at the struggling Church members. Suddenly, he shouted loudly, ”Everyone, get ready, we will break through together soon!”

Nalan Jingwei and Executioner Scholar’s side didn’t understand the foreign language, so naturally, they didn’t comprehend what Ye Qing and the Great Lord were saying. However, hearing the Great Lord’s sudden shout, both men’s faces changed slightly. Exchanging a glance, they understood each other’s thoughts.

”Everyone be careful, these foreign thieves are likely trying to run, don’t let them escape!” Nalan Jingwei shouted loudly, proving his cleverness. Even if he couldn’t understand Ye Qing and the Great Lord’s words, he could see they were preparing to break through.

Nalan Jingwei’s words made Huaxia’s people attack even more fiercely, pressuring the Church members with only the ability to resist, offering no counterattack. Currently, it seemed utterly impossible for them to escape.

Faced with such a predicament, Ye Qing worried. If it continued like this, the Church members couldn’t escape, thus preventing Nalan Jingwei and Executioner Scholar from being lured into the Demon Hideout Cave.

Nevertheless, the Great Lord acted as if oblivious to the situation, his expression unchanged. Meanwhile, his body underwent strange transformations as he fought the two beside him. Clad in a black robe, his figure exuded an eerie aura and now emitted black gas, gradually enveloping him, appearing increasingly bizarre.

Witnessing this, the originally disadvantaged Church members seemed invigorated, relentlessly shouting and fighting against Huaxia’s masters nearby.
