Urban Martial Saint

Lin Tianyou said, ”Mr. Helian, you need to relax your body first. I have to open a cut here!”

”Oh.” Only then did Helian Tiehua come back to his senses. He hurriedly withdrew the power from his arm and said, ”Now it’s fine!”

Lin Tianyou nodded and slashed down again with the dagger. This time the dagger met no resistance at all and directly opened a cut on Helian Tiehua’s arm. As the wound was torn open, a streak of red light shot straight out from his wound, rushed far into the distance, and finally gradually faded away.

”Ah!” Helian Tiehua let out a loud cry, which startled the two Elders beside him. They had no idea what on earth was happening to Helian Tiehua.

”I told you, this blow was going to hurt!” Lin Tianyou said.

”Th-this… this is way too painful…” Helian Tiehua said gloomily. When that red light burst out, the pain he felt was simply more intense than all the pain he’d suffered in his entire life added together.

”Supreme Peak Power forcing its way out of your body—of course that kind of pain isn’t going to be simple.” As Lin Tianyou spoke, he tapped a few times on Helian Tiehua’s body, undoing the sealed acupoints once more.

At that, Helian Tiehua clearly felt his body recover a great deal, and his True Qi could smoothly circulate through his whole body again. This delighted him greatly, and he said, ”M-my injury… is fine?”

”With the Supreme Peak Power discharged, this wound is now about the same as an ordinary injury. You can completely use your own Internal Breath to regulate and heal it.” Finished speaking, Lin Tianyou turned to look at the two Elders and said, ”You two, who’s first?”

The two Elders were already staring, dumbfounded. These Supreme Peak wounds, even Bai Li Xi and Ning Qianshu couldn’t treat them. They had originally thought Lin Tianyou was just bragging. Who could have imagined that Lin Tianyou would actually cure Helian Tiehua’s injury? How was this even possible?

Right at that moment, a shrill, miserable howl suddenly came from the distant end of the mountain forest. Everyone turned their heads at the same time and saw a skeletal frame with wings burst out from the distant horizon—it was precisely the same skeletal frame that had attacked them earlier.

Seeing this skeletal frame, everyone was startled and unconsciously grew wary, ready to fight this skeleton at any moment. But in truth, that skeleton had no intention of flying toward them at all. Instead, it seemed somewhat panicked, flying toward the far-off sky. However, it had barely flown far when a streak of Qing Mang shot up from the foot of the mountain, turning in midair into a long knife of green light that chopped straight down over the skeleton, cleaving it in half. The skeleton let out a howl of unwillingness, fell from the sky, and crashed into that stretch of mountains.

Watching this scene, everyone present widened their eyes, each face filled with shock. They had all seen the skeleton’s power just now—it was absolutely beyond what they could handle. Who could have guessed that this skeleton would be taken out by a single streak of Qing Mang? What was going on? On the other side of the mountain, could there be some hidden expert?

While everyone was still in shock, over by the cliff, the Bloody Monk finally pulled the people inside Panlong Valley out. The first to emerge was Bai Li Xi. As soon as this guy climbed out, he immediately started shouting loudly, ”Junior Brother! Junior Brother!”

Back on the cliff, he had already heard someone say there was a way to treat Supreme Peak injuries, and he had also heard Ye Qing talk about Lin Tianyou. Naturally he knew Lin Tianyou had come. So the moment he came up, he excitedly dashed over.

The others still didn’t know who his Junior Brother was, but on this side Lin Tianyou had already stood up and called out in a clear voice, ”Baili Senior Brother!”

”Hahahaha, hahahaha, hahahahaha…” Bai Li Xi suddenly seemed to go a bit crazy, laughing as he rushed down from the mountain. He ran straight to Lin Tianyou’s side, grabbed Lin Tianyou and said excitedly, ”So you’re the successor Master chose! You’re the heir to Medicine King Mountain. I knew it, Master definitely picked a successor last time, but I could never figure out who. Turns out it was you. Hahaha, that’s great, that’s great. With you inheriting Master’s legacy, I, Bai Li Xi, am the first to raise both hands in support!”

Bai Li Xi was actually very impressed with Lin Tianyou too. Not to mention anything else—back at Medicine King Mountain, Lin Tianyou had been willing to risk his life to save that villain, which was already something that forced people to admire him. So with Lin Tianyou inheriting Divine Doctor An Shiping’s legacy, Bai Li Xi had absolutely no objections.

”He… he’s your Junior Brother?” Helian Tiehua asked in surprise. He didn’t know about Lin Tianyou inheriting Divine Doctor An Shiping’s legacy.

Bai Li Xi said, ”Nonsense. Otherwise, how do you think your injury got cured?”

”This…” Helian Tiehua opened his mouth but had no words to answer. Yes, apart from someone who had obtained all of Divine Doctor An Shiping’s legacy, who else could possibly treat injuries inflicted by Supreme Peak Power? Even with Bai Li Xi and Ning Qianshu joining forces, they couldn’t do it. Only Divine Doctor An Shiping’s successor could!

At this moment, by the edge of the cliff, the others were also hauled up one after another. Among them, Ye Qing came up cradling Huangfu Ziyu, and as soon as he got to the top he rushed down the slope with her in his arms, anxiously calling to Lin Tianyou, ”Brother Lin, hurry and help me save her!”

Lin Tianyou had originally been about to treat those two Elders of the Seven Steering Committees of Hong Alliance; now that so many injured people had come up at once, he was all the busier. Of course, with Ye Qing carrying Huangfu Ziyu over, he would certainly treat Huangfu Ziyu first.

Just as when he treated Helian Tiehua, he again made a small cut on Huangfu Ziyu’s arm, releasing the Supreme Peak Power within her body. Once this power was released, Huangfu Ziyu’s breathing noticeably steadied; clearly her injuries had recovered greatly and were no longer as perilous as before, when she could have died at any moment.

Ye Qing then fed her a Ziyu Chenxiang Pill, and not long after, Huangfu Ziyu slowly came to. Seeing Ye Qing by her side, watching her with concern, Huangfu Ziyu’s eyes reddened; she reached out and wrapped her arms tightly around Ye Qing, not loosening them for even an instant.

Ye Qing softly comforted her a few words, and only then did Huangfu Ziyu regain some composure. Without the Supreme Peak Power, her injuries were no longer much of a problem. Besides, after taking the Ziyu Chenxiang Pill, she was already able to stand and walk together with Ye Qing. Of course, she kept a firm grip on Ye Qing’s hand the entire time, with no intention of letting go.

While Lin Tianyou was treating the others’ injuries, Bai Li Xi, unable to help with the healing, went around examining each injured person on the spot, hoping to see if there were still any survivors. After making a round, he came to the corpse of the Purple Robe Lama and cried out in shock, ”Oh my, who is this? How could he be so horribly wounded?”

”Right, the Purple-robed Elder!” Helian Tiehua was the first to react, hurriedly turning his head to look. The Bloody Monk and the others also ran over; a moment ago they had focused solely on that skeletal frame and had completely forgotten about the Purple Robe Lama.

”This is the Purple Robe Lama?” Bai Li Xi asked in astonishment.

Ye Qing’s eyes widened even more; he had recognized the Purple Robe Lama. However, he had never imagined that the Purple Robe Lama would die here. Looking at the utterly shattered state of the Purple Robe Lama’s body, Ye Qing’s heart clenched. The Purple Robe Lama had been a heroic man, and yet he had perished in this place—how could one not feel wretched at heart?

The others also gathered around. They had all heard the name of the Purple Robe Lama, and naturally felt deep regret.

Cui Yulong knelt before the corpse, his eyes moist, unable to speak for a long while. The Purple Robe Lama had once taught him Martial Arts and, to him, was like a master. With the Purple Robe Lama dying here, the one in the greatest grief was, of course, him.

Lin Tianyou also came over. After examining the Purple Robe Lama’s condition, he could not help but sigh and said, ”His body is completely destroyed. It’s simply impossible to save him.”

Lin Tianyou could Resurrect the Dead, but only on the premise that the body was not too badly damaged. In the Purple Robe Lama’s current state, there was not a single intact part left on him; even if an immortal descended, it would be impossible to bring him back to life.

”The Wanyan Family!” Helian Tiehua clenched his fists and ground his teeth. ”This debt—I will definitely settle accounts with them!”

Everyone’s gazes turned cold and grim, their righteous anger surging. The Purple Robe Lama’s death only deepened their hatred of the Wanyan Family. If their strength were sufficient, they would likely already have stormed over to the Wanyan estate to seek revenge.

They lingered here for more than half an hour, during which Lin Tianyou finished treating all the injured, including the earlier Wolf Monk Ding Lianshun and Yin Xianzi. These people had been in a coma all this time; had Lin Tianyou not appeared, they simply could not have been revived.

After everyone was treated, they found a coffin that was still relatively intact and temporarily placed the Purple Robe Lama’s corpse inside, then shouldered the coffin and headed in the direction where that skeletal frame had fallen. Just now, that skeletal frame had been drawn into the mountains by a streak of Qing Mang, and then killed by that same Qing Mang. It seemed that Qing Mang should have been an enemy of the skeletal frame. The group wanted to go and see what origin that Qing Mang had!

The mountain path was rugged, but everyone was quite strong. Moreover, now that their injuries were healed, their strength was gradually returning. Carrying a coffin was no difficult task, and they soon reached the other side of the mountain.

Upon seeing the state of the forest here, everyone sucked in a breath of cold air. The forest within the mountain was rather remote, so the trees growing here were all quite old, mostly decades-old great trees, and the woods were extremely dense. Yet in the very center of this forest, within a certain area, all the trees had toppled, as if struck by a tornado; not a single tree remained standing, every one lying flat on the ground. Moreover, they could clearly see that the trunks were covered in shattered marks everywhere, as if after falling they had been subjected to further heavy blows!

”Th-this… could it be that someone fought here just now?” an Elder of the Seven Steering Committees of Hong Alliance said in a trembling voice.
