Urban Martial Saint

Faced with accusations from Ye Qing’s side, the faces of Wanyan Family’s members turned extremely gloomy. Such a situation was entirely unexpected for them. They hadn’t anticipated such a turn of events at all.

For these ten battles, they had already planned meticulously, with an assured victory in mind. However, the unexpected appearances of Wu Xiuming and Liu Mubai completely exceeded their expectations. Wu Xiuming’s Heavenly Inquiry Three Styles, Liu Mubai’s Heavenly Demon Dismantling Technique, and Heavenly Demon Roar completely changed the battlefield, unexpectedly leading Ye Qing’s side to achieve the final victory.

Looking at it, if Wu Xiuming and Liu Mubai hadn’t joined the battle, Ye Qing’s side might have faced a terrible defeat. Because, despite Wu Xiuming’s one victory, it only balanced the scale. If not for Liu Mubai’s final victory against Nalan Jingwei, they would undoubtedly have lost. Such a reversal in the battle not only excited Ye Qing’s side immensely but also infuriated Wanyan Family’s members to the extreme.

Amid the crowd’s uproar, Shen Tianjun coldly looked at Wanyan Second Master and said sternly, ”This number one was actually Mr. Nalan, not a member of the Wanyan Family. Then the other nine people, who might they be?”

Upon hearing this, the crowd immediately began bustling again. They had been busy discussing the victory earlier, almost neglecting this issue. Indeed, if number one was Nalan Jingwei, then who were the other nine people? It appears these nine individuals are likely not from the Wanyan Family either. Otherwise, why would they let these people wear masks? There must be something unsavory hidden!

The crowd clamored continuously, demanding the Wanyan Family reveal the identities of all nine individuals by removing their masks.

Many among the Wanyan Family were also puzzled, as even many of them were unaware of the identities of these ten people. Upon seeing Nalan Jingwei earlier, they were truly taken aback. The identities of these ten people were known only to a few higher-ups within the Wanyan Family.

Wanyan Second Master furrowed his brow, glanced at the man beside him. The man nodded slightly, making Wanyan Second Master’s eyes flash with coldness as he slowly stood up.

Seeing Wanyan Second Master stand up, the crowd immediately ceased their uproar, focusing on him, eager to hear his explanations on the matter.

Wanyan Second Master took a deep breath, looking coldly at Ye Qing, and said, ”Throughout history, the victor becomes king and the defeated becomes outlaws—that’s an unchanging truth!”

”Since Mr. Wan Yan understands this truth, let’s not say anything unnecessary!” Ye Qing smiled faintly, ”Hand over the Heaven Earth Man Tri-Map and the Six Keys, and reveal the identities of these nine individuals entirely!”

”Ye, you haven’t grasped my point!” Wanyan Second Master replied coldly, ”These ten battles prove nothing. Absolute strength is the true way to speak!”

Upon hearing this, the crowd erupted, and Ye Qing said sternly, ”Old Thief Wan Yan, is this your way of breaking a promise?”

”Old Thief Wan Yan, you bunch of faithless bastards!”

”I expected this bunch of cowards wouldn’t keep their word, but I didn’t imagine they’d be this shameless!”

”...”

The crowd roared angrily, but Wanyan Second Master showed no trace of guilt. He swept his cold gaze over the crowd and said sternly, ”I’ll give you another chance; start working for the Wanyan Family and you can keep your lives and get everything you desire. Otherwise, don’t blame the Wanyan Family for being ruthless!”

Wanyan Second Master’s words caused a massive uproar at the scene, with many people angrily shouting, ready to fight.

Wanyan Second Master paused for a moment, then said coldly, ”It seems everyone isn’t planning to cooperate with us. Well then, there’s no need to say more!”

After speaking, Wanyan Second Master suddenly let out a whistle. With his sound, two people immediately jumped down from the distant mountaintop, one of whom was the Third Sect Master from the Sword Saint Sect.

Seeing these two descend with such momentum, Ye Qing’s crowd was taken aback. Although they hadn’t fought with these two, everyone could tell that they were certainly beyond peerless masters.

”That’s the person who once attacked our Twelve Green Halls!” a man from the Twelve Green Halls suddenly shouted, pointing at the Third Sect Master.

Once the words were spoken, the scene erupted again. Everyone knew that the one who attacked the Twelve Green Halls was a beyond peerless master. Now it’s clear, these two are definitely beyond peerless masters.

Facing these two men, Ye Qing frowned deeply and said in a low voice, ”Old Thief Wan Yan, are you really going back on your word?”

”I said it before, winners are crowned kings, losers become bandits; strength is paramount!” Wanyan Second Master said coldly, ”It’s not me who is breaking my promise, it’s you who are not worthy of me keeping it. Today, you either join my Wanyan Family, work for us and enjoy glory and wealth, or you all die here!”

Wanyan Second Master’s voice was very cold, threatening the people present. Combined with the aura of those two beyond peerless masters, this situation indeed made people feel a bit trembled.

Ye Qing took a deep breath and said coldly, ”In that case, let’s see who shows their true skills!”

After speaking, Ye Qing stepped back and said loudly, ”Two seniors, it’s time for you to take action!”

”Been waiting long enough!” With a strange cry, Shijia jumped out from the crowd first, heading straight for the Third Sect Master, pointed at him, and said, ”Yo, kid, do you know who the Buddha Master is?”

Seeing Shijia, the Third Sect Master’s eyebrows furrowed tightly, and he said in a deep voice, ”Shijia of Xiaolin Temple, the foremost master of the current Buddhist Sect!”

Shijia laughed, ”Since you know my name, you should know what to do, right?”

The Third Sect Master didn’t say a word and turned to run up the mountain along the cliff. Meanwhile, Shijia seemed to have a telepathic connection with him, and as he moved, she also ran towards the mountaintop.

On the other side, Wuji and another beyond peerless master also charged out simultaneously. Like Shijia and the Third Sect Master, they ran along the cliff and soon left the area.

Watching these four beyond peerless masters leave, everyone finally let out a long breath. With all four beyond peerless masters gone, the pressure on everyone’s hearts was greatly reduced.

A man from the World Alliance immediately shouted, ”Old Thief Wan Yan, what other tricks do you have? Show them!”

Wanyan Second Master seemed to have expected these four beyond peerless masters to leave. He snorted coldly, stepped aside, and said, ”With two beyond peerless masters gone from my side, you also lost Shijia and Wuji; the outcome is the same. However, I have more than just those two beyond peerless masters!”

As Wanyan Second Master spoke, a few people from the Wanyan Family pushed a blood-colored coffin over. The coffin lid was open, and it emitted a strong bloody smell that made people nauseous. The few people closest could even see that the coffin was filled with blood, continuously bubbling and frothing, looking extremely disgusting and terrifying.

Ye Qing’s group immediately frowned, as they knew that this blood coffin surely contained the resurrected Corpse Ghost Dragon. This former top master, who was shattered into dozens of pieces by Ye Qing with the Buddha’s Relic, was later rescued by the Wanyan Family and resurrected using his Secret Technique. The group then planted a Heart Demon Flower in his body before he fully recovered, completely controlling the Corpse Ghost Dragon. Now, the Corpse Ghost Dragon likely has lost most of his independent consciousness, becoming a super goon of the Wanyan Family.

The Wanyan Family had rarely used this super goon before; it had always been their hidden ace. This time, they finally played this ace, showing that the Wanyan Family was truly ready to completely battle with the three major organizations in Shenchuan City and take full control.

Seeing the expressions of Ye Qing’s group, Wanyan Second Master couldn’t help but coldly smile. He walked to the side of the coffin, patted it, and said loudly, ”There’s still time to beg for mercy; otherwise, when this great fiend comes out, you won’t even have the chance to beg for mercy!”

The crowd’s expressions changed, as they had all heard of the reputation of the Corpse Ghost Dragon. Shijia and Wuhua had both fallen short against the Corpse Ghost Dragon; now who among them could possibly stop him?

”Is that so?” Just as everyone was shocked, a bold voice suddenly came through. They turned to see Fu Qingping already standing up, proudly walking toward the blood coffin.

Fu Qingping stepping out naturally boosted everyone’s spirits a little. However, inwardly, they were still somewhat worried. Fu Qingping had just broken through the acme shackle not long ago, becoming a beyond peerless master. Yet, the Corpse Ghost Dragon was considered to be among the best of the beyond peerless masters. Could Fu Qingping really stand a chance against the Corpse Ghost Dragon? Even Shijia was not a match for him; what about Fu Qingping?

Looking at Fu Qingping, Wanyan Second Master also coldly smiled and said, ”Fu Qingping, indeed your strength is formidable. But you should also know who is in that blood coffin. You have just entered the beyond peerless realm and still have another one or two hundred years to live; why insist on fighting so hard? If you are willing to work for my Wanyan Family, there will be a place for you in the Heaven Earth Man Three Gates!”

The Heaven Earth Man Three Gates only had three seats, yet Wanyan Second Master promised Fu Qingping a place, showing his great interest in him. However, Wanyan Second Master didn’t understand Fu Qingping’s character; Fu Qingping would never be swayed by a few words.

”The Corpse Ghost Dragon may be among the best of the beyond peerless masters, but to be reduced to a slave for you is truly pathetic!” Fu Qingping sighed, looking at Wanyan Second Master, and said coldly, ”I have seen through the way the Wanyan Family operates. Cooperating with you is like asking the tiger for its skin. I dare not want nor do I wish for the promises you offer!”
