Chapter 619: Chapter 354: Yizhuang Escort (Part 2)
When traveling outside, one must naturally be cautious everywhere, especially since the other party clearly has guards protecting someone important, and is naturally on edge. Huangfu Yi also apologized,
"This leader, I really am a hunter from the mountains. It was only recently that Demon Wind almost took my life, almost losing it to a demon’s mouth. That’s why I narrowly escaped death and came here to stay for the night, with no intention of offending anyone. If you don’t trust me, I’ll leave this Yizhuang to you all. I’ll just find somewhere else to settle. Farewell!"
The old man pondered for a moment, seemingly agreeing with his suggestion, nodded, and took up the Nine-section Whip, placing it by his waist.
"Then you may go."
"Thank you..."
"Boom!"
Unexpectedly, just as the old man nodded his head, two archers in the front courtyard fired their bows simultaneously! Two lead bullets shot straight towards Huangfu Yi’s temple! About to take his life!
"Whoosh! Whoosh!"
At the same time, the tiles underfoot flipped! Two short spears shot up from below! Directly piercing towards the soles of Huangfu Yi’s feet, aiming to stab upwards!
Although Huangfu Yi was on guard, the True Qi within him was in turmoil, and he hadn’t eaten a full meal in ages, lacking power underfoot. In times of repeated ambushes, he is forced to tilt his head and shoulders, writhing awkwardly on the rooftop tiles to dodge, rolling and crawling, tumbling towards the eaves in an attempt to jump out of the courtyard to flee.
"Whirr—!"
Yet these guards are seasoned Jianghu people, and one had already been lying in ambush, waiting. The moment Huangfu Yi attempted to escape, seeing him in mid-air, unable to dodge, the man lunged forward with a thick-backed machete, leaping out with a slicing attack! Cutting horizontally at his waist!
"White Tiger Leaping Over the Stream!!"
"Ha ah!!"
The swordsman leapt from behind; as he turned, the knife was already at waist level, with no room left for dodging!
In the blink of an eye, Huangfu Yi found himself close to death, plunged into a perilous situation!
Huangfu Yi, in a mix of shock and anger! Suddenly, a boundless fury rose in his heart! With a furious shout, he forced himself to endure the rushing Qi flowing through his meridians, filled with fear, pain, and anger! He punched out at the steel knife slicing towards his waist! Exerting all his power! Iron fist crashing down! Viciously smashing against the Sword Gang!
"Ping!"
With a clash of fist and knife, a metallic sound rang out, yet how could an Iron Inlaid Horizontal Blade withstand a strike with a hundred years of power, full of resentment! Instantly, the blade fractured and shattered, the remnants flying out of hand, bursting everywhere!
"Bang!"
In the clash of Gang Qi, Huangfu Yi leveraged the strength, flipping backward, spinning and leaping onto the courtyard wall.
"Crack!"
The ambushing darts master was blasted away by the surging fist force, his hundred-year Gang Qi broken through the body! He spat blood, flying away, crashing straight into the house! His head striking a roof beam, instantly breaking his neck, dying on the spot!
"Brother Peng! Ah ah!"
In the Jianghu, one is not free to act, and a grudge is formed, leading to a life or death struggle!
The young darts master who had wielded a pair of flower spears earlier, hiding inside and sneak attacking Huangfu Yi’s feet with random stabs, saw his teammate die and his eyes turned red. He flew into the air, taking three running steps to jump onto the wall, wielding the double short spears in a flourish, thrusting directly towards Huangfu Yi’s chest and abdomen!
"Bang bang bang!" "Whoosh whoosh whoosh!"
The two slingshot shooters from the front courtyard were not to be outdone, taking turns to charge in aid, continuously chasing and leaping onto the eaves, angrily firing their bows, shooting iron bullets and lead pellets indiscriminately, smashing towards Huangfu Yi from head to toe!
Huangfu Yi was inwardly anguished, having exploded in a moment of life and death, although with the help of the demoness’s hundred-year power, he punched his way out of danger, he was also momentarily drained of Qi Gong, his bones numbed and weakened, half of his body paralyzed from the exertion, unable to escape while being pursued again, even more difficult to get away.
Originally, the True Qi was turbulent within him, hungry and in pain, feeling uncomfortable all over. At this time, he was again attacked fiercely by this unreasonable group of Jianghu people, dead set on killing him, causing Huangfu Yi to feel aggrieved. Gritting his teeth, he fought with spirit, running back and forth on the walls, dodging the volley of bullets and spears, while his feet darted through, blocking the flower spear thrusts.
At this point, Huangfu Yi still didn’t want to unnecessarily harm anyone, fearing that a misunderstanding would lead to a loss of life. His skills were entirely in battlefield killing, straight charging and hard fighting, facing the enemy head-on perhaps, but when it came to dueling skills and techniques, he truly couldn’t match these Jianghu people. Surrounded by three people being attacked chaotically, his vision was filled with a barrage of flower spears and pellets, barely managing to fend for himself, let alone subduing them without harming anyone in an instant.
At this moment, Huangfu Yi had to focus solely, undistracted, using all his might to deal with the combined assault of the three. After a chaotic battle lasting just over ten rounds, he was already hit by two bullets, and received a spear thrust, bleeding all over, with his abdomen, back, and chest muscles turning a bright crimson!
Yet these guards showed no sign of stopping! On the contrary, the attacks intensified, each move lethal, aiming to take life! The bullets and spears flew continuously, targeting his heart!
Finally, Huangfu Yi could sustain no more under the ferocity of the attack and exposed a Weakness! His foot slipped, stepping on a broken wall brick, slipping off the outer wall of the courtyard!
"Surrender your life!"
The young darts master saw the opportunity! Launching himself forth! Thrusting with both spears! Towards Huangfu Yi, intending to pin him to the ground!
"Bang!"
Unfortunately, it was a trap!
But Huangfu Yi risked showing a Weakness! Despite intentionally losing balance underfoot and slipping, however dangerous it was! It successfully used the wall to block the view of the two slingshot shooters!
Taking advantage of the opponent’s lunging thrust, Huangfu Yi, having been prepared, twisted his waist! Letting the spear tip scrape a blood mark across his chest, taking the opportunity to catch both spears in his arms, clenching them tightly! And using the momentum! He pulled the darts master into his arms with one move! Delivering an elbow strike like a blade!
