Boom!

The rope dart, which was as fast as lightning, was still flying toward the door.

Ye Jingtang held his saber in his left hand, and his figure seemed to teleport as he brushed past the golden rope. Before horror could appear in Zheng Kun’s eyes, the light of the saber had already reached three feet away from him.

This saber move was Xuanyuan Chao’s masterpiece. It was only slightly slower than Ye Jingtang’s self-damaging moves.

But it was only slow when compared to Ye Jingtang. To other Jianghu people, this was a saber technique that was even more outrageous than the Eight-Steps Frenzied Blade. Just this saber move alone could suppress any saber user in the world.

Zheng Kun wasn’t weak, and his combat instincts were far faster than his thoughts. When he noticed the abnormality, he had already given up on pulling back the rope dart. He stepped back with his right foot, closed his hands, and used Liu Qiansheng’s Golden Dragon Mouth, wanting to grab and push away the Hornless Dragon Saber.

Liu Qiansheng had once used this method to drive away Ye Jingtang’s blade. His fighting style and thinking were indeed correct, but with Zheng Kun’s speed, it would already be over before his hands closed on the blade. Even if he caught it, he wouldn’t be able to move it. It was just a last-ditch struggle.

Zheng Kun realized that the gap between the two of them was overwhelming. His heart was like dead ashes. But what shocked him even more was that the current Saber Chief in front of him actually changed his move when he was about to kill him!

Ye Jingtang’s blade was about to strike when he realized that this fellow was like a wooden stake and couldn’t react at all. The saber in his left hand suddenly stopped, and his right fist was already clenched tightly. A punch blasted out.

Boom!

As the fist wind blew, a layer of dirt was instantly flattened, and a ring-shaped dust storm rose.

The all-conquering heavy punch instantly collided with Zheng Kun’s closed palms.

With a muffled sound, Zheng Kun’s muscular arms visibly shortened by more than an inch. Two bulges appeared behind his shoulders, and then blood exploded from his back.

The sleeves of his robe also shattered inch by inch under the destructive force until the upper half of his robe turned into fragments and exploded. He didn’t even stand still for a moment before he turned into a heavy cannonball and smashed into the main room.

Boom!

Although Liu Qiansheng, who was sitting under the eaves, had his meridians sealed, his experience and eyesight were still there. He had long turned his head while holding the three-stringed lute and waited for Zheng Kun to fly past his ear, crash through two walls, and fall into the depths of the building complex before continuing to play the three-stringed lute.

Crash!

Amidst the loud sounds of bricks cracking, Ye Jingtang’s figure turned at a right angle without stopping. He dragged his saber and charged toward Shi Yanfeng.

Shi Yanfeng’s original intention was to escape to the side, step on the wall, and then turn around to attack together with Zheng Kun.

But at this moment, before Shi Yanfeng could step on the wall in midair, Ye Jingtang had already caught up. An indescribable shock appeared in his eyes. The bronze staff in his hand immediately rammed at Ye Jingtang’s face.

Ye Jingtang’s movements were smooth. He had already seen through Shi Yanfeng’s intentions before he counterattacked. He caught the bronze staff with his left hand and brushed past it, producing dazzling sparks.

Crack!

At the same time, the saber hilt entered his right hand, and the blade stabbed at Shi Yanfeng’s back like a venomous snake.

This stab was aimed at a major blood vessel in the heart. If nothing unexpected happened, Shi Yanfeng would be fatally injured with just a quick stab and withdrawal. He wouldn’t die, but he wouldn’t be able to live without rescue. It was a fatal stab.

But what Ye Jingtang didn’t expect was that the indestructible long saber in his hand suddenly stopped when it pierced into the flesh on Shi Yanfeng’s back, as if it had stabbed into an iron wall made of refined iron.

Bam!

The blade suddenly stopped in advance, and a massive force returned to Ye Jingtang’s hand and forcefully bent the blade, almost causing his saber to leave his hands.

As for Shi Yanfeng, it felt as though a battering ram had hit his back. The blade didn’t penetrate his body, but the terrifying qi poured into his body. His entire body turned into a sharp arrow that shot out diagonally, shattering the side wall and falling into the distance.

Crash!

Ye Jingtang’s attack failed. He immediately took a few steps back, his eyes filled with shock. “Golden Scale Picture?”

Liu Qiansheng’s eyes were also full of surprise. After all, he could see how ruthless Ye Jingtang’s stab was. The Saber Chief’s saber had stabbed Shi Yanfeng’s back, but it had only pierced two inches into his flesh. With Shi Yanfeng’s talent, he couldn’t have practiced any defensive martial arts to this extent. He could only have learned the Golden Scale Picture for many years.

Rumble!

Shi Yanfeng was sent flying and landed on the ground at about the same time as Zheng Kun.

Zheng Kun had suffered a heavy blow, and his upper body’s meridians were almost shattered. He couldn’t get up at all after falling.

As for Shi Yanfeng, because Ye Jingtang wanted to keep him alive for interrogation, he didn’t stab his spine, the back of his neck, the back of his head, or any other fatal parts. He had stabbed him once in the muscles on his back. Due to Shi Yangfeng’s Golden Scale Skin, the saber only penetrated two inches deep and didn’t hurt the blood vessels of his heart. He only suffered some internal injuries from the shock. His feet landed on the ground, and he ran wildly into the night.

Ye Jingtang discovered an exact clue regarding the Golden Scale Picture, so he would definitely not let this person escape.. He immediately sheathed his saber, flew out the door to pick up Dumdum, who had yet to react, and flew in the direction that Shi Yanfeng was escaping…
