"Ghost Head Stronghold..."
Bai Ziyue's face changed drastically, an endless sense of crisis continuously emerging.
Due to his previous suspicions, his heart was always on edge while walking this stretch of road.
After a few days of peace and quiet, he thought that Ghost Head Stronghold had given up, or his suspicions were wrong. Unexpectedly, he encountered them now.
Ghost Head Stronghold indeed came for revenge for their Fourth Village Chief.
"Uncle Sun..."
Just as Bai Ziyue was about to ask Uncle Sun what to do, he saw the other party not even giving a warning, running back at high speed, as fast as the wind, disappearing into the night in an instant.
At this moment, there was no sign of his injured leg and foot, his speed fast, vanishing without a trace.
This was the quick-wittedness of an experienced traveler in Jianghu; seeing the situation was wrong, he immediately fled.
Bai Ziyue cursed softly, hurriedly following.
With the Zen Meditation Posture reaching Great Success, his bodily attributes greatly increased, his speed was not slow either.
But soon, Bai Ziyue's face changed, without thinking, he turned and dashed into a nearby alley.
Suddenly, the sound of martial artists fighting came from ahead.
Clearly, although Sunx Neng ran fast, Ghost Head Stronghold seemed to have already ambushed people everywhere, preventing anyone from escaping, and directly intercepted him at this moment.
Having dashed into the alley, Bai Ziyue's face turned pale, and his heart felt incredibly flustered.
"No, I can't run anymore. Who knows how many people Ghost Head Stronghold has ambushed around here?"
Bai Ziyue forced himself to calm down.
He knew that the more flustered he was, the more likely he was to make mistakes.
Only by staying calm could he find a solution to the predicament as quickly as possible.
Suddenly, Bai Ziyue's eyes lit up.
Earlier when he intentionally checked the Li's Pawnshop, he walked through this alley; he knew there was a dog hole under a wall ahead. The dog hole was small, naturally, an adult couldn't pass through, but now he looked like a child, so passing through the dog hole would definitely not be a problem.
In order to escape, he couldn't care about much.
Soon, the dog hole appeared before him.
Without any hesitation, Bai Ziyue crawled in directly.
"No, it's blocked."
Bai Ziyue's face turned pale; he originally wanted to use the dog hole to sneak into this household's yard.
Unexpectedly, the dog hole seemed to lead to their kitchen, and the chopped wood completely blocked the exit on the other side.
In his panic, clear footsteps appeared at the entrance of the alley.
Then, they gradually approached the alley.
Bai Ziyue's breathing almost stopped with tension, cold sweat dripping down.
"Divine Sword Liu Zhiping, Vajra Body Wu Yong, even the Second and Third Village Chiefs of Ghost Head Stronghold came..."
At that moment, an extremely emotional voice sounded.
"Second Young Master of the Li Family, capturing our Fourth Village Chief alive. Such prestige... Today, I want to see how you will be prestigious after the Li Family is slaughtered!"
A cold voice followed.
"Want to slaughter my family, do you even know where this place is?"
This voice sounded elderly, but it seemed full of boundless confidence.
"Oh? I didn't expect, Mr. Li is also a master."
The previous voice seemed a bit surprised, but an ice-cold voice followed.
"Kill!"
"Quick battle, quick end!"
Acting in Qinghe Town, even they didn't dare to delay too long.
In the town, it's not that there are no powerhouses.
Yang Zhengling, the guardian of Qinghe Town, and Liu Dong, the Sect Leader of Sunburst Gang, were both people they had to be wary of.
Rumble!
Powerful Qi surged, walls collapsed.
The clash was incredibly fierce, with the occasional sound of swords clashing, as if iron was being hammered, extremely ear-piercing.
...
Footsteps were gradually approaching in the alley.
Bai Ziyue's breathing became weaker and weaker. With the Great Success of Zen Meditation Posture, his control over his body reached an amazing degree, able to control his breathing to an almost non-existent state.
Of course, he knew clearly that rather than hoping others wouldn't find him, it was better to prepare for a desperate fight.
With his strength surpassing an average adult and the power generated from the Great Success of Zen Meditation Posture, there was still a possibility of a one-hit kill.
One step, two steps, three steps...
The figure was only ten meters away from Bai Ziyue.
Suddenly, that person was startled.
He felt that the fight in the distance was actually moving towards them.
"Xu'er, I'll block them, you escape first."
An elderly voice rang out.
Clearly, the Li Family was ultimately no match for the well-prepared Ghost Head Stronghold.
"None of you will escape."
From Ghost Head Stronghold's side, a cold voice sounded again, a dazzling sword light suddenly blossomed, enveloping the Li father and son with incredible agility.
Divine Sword Liu Zhiping, one sword strike could communicate with the divine.
Moreover, this sword strike was extremely unusual, Sword Qi erupted from it.
"Inner Qi Realm, how is that possible?"
Mr. Li's panicked voice sounded, followed by a resolute look on his face, shouting, "Go!"
Then he directly faced the sword light full of killing intent.
To prevent Vajara Body Wu Yong, the Third Village Chief of Ghost Head Stronghold, from intercepting his son, he threw his war saber fiercely at Wu Yong.
"Hmph, you can't escape."
Liu Zhiping snorted coldly, executing a palm strike in mid-air.
With the Inner Qi, even from four or five meters away, it held terrifying power.
Li Xu's back sank, crashing hard into the wall like thunder.
Rumble!
The wall collapsed, Li Xu spat a mouthful of clotted blood, got up rolling.
At the entrance of the alley, both Bai Ziyue and the other person were startled.
Li Xu actually crashed over from the other side of the wall directly into their alley.
"Kill!"
The people of Ghost Head Stronghold were all desperadoes; seeing this, they rushed forward with long knives, showing no fear.
The saber light was so dense, giving a sense of impenetrability.
"Die!"
Although Li Xu was injured, he was a true Inner Cultivation level powerhouse, and combined with his innate divine power, his sight and speed far exceeded those of ordinary External Forging powerhouses.
He reached out, accurately grabbing the opponent's long knife, and with an explosion of power, the long knife shattered.
Then, he blurred his figure and swiftly swung the broken saber.
The person's head was instantly split open, dead.
Despite quickly killing the blocking enemy, Li Xu dared not pause for a moment, his figure sped away like lightning.
"Chase!"
Divine Sword Liu Zhiping shouted lowly, casually discarding the already slain Mr. Li's body, and swiftly chased on.
Vajra Body Wu Yong followed closely, quickly moving across the rooftops.
Until the surroundings quieted down for a long time, Bai Ziyue finally came back to his senses.
The fight between masters was too fast and too fierce, in just a moment, people had died. Although he stayed in the hole, because of the night and the angle, he couldn't see clearly, but Li Xu breaking the long knife with one hand was vividly in his mind.
Because that broken knife was currently lying quietly three meters away from him.
