Chapter 1385: Chapter 1385
Ye Qing was taken aback for a moment, unsure of what Yin Xianzi intended to do. Could she possibly be planning to throw him out? How could that be possible? Ye Qing weighed more than a hundred pounds!
Just as Ye Qing was bewildered, he was surprised to see that Yin Xianzi's long whip extended to more than twice its length. This time, the long whip truly lived up to its name. It was originally just over one zhang long, but now it extended to three zhang long. While this side was still motionless, the other side had already been thrown over Ding Lianshun's head.
Ding Lianshun had been waiting for this moment. When he saw the long whip approaching, he immediately leaped up and grabbed it. Ye Qing hadn't even had time to react before Ding Lianshun forcefully swung him out, directly throwing him onto a horizontal beam in the distance.
"Stay up there, don't come down!" Yin Xianzi shouted loudly, her face cold as ice as she looked at the human puppets surrounding them, truly enraged at this moment.
Ye Qing stood on the beam, looking down, and he saw a densely packed scene of human puppets below. Only now could he see, they had completely underestimated the number of these human puppets before. There were about four to five hundred human puppets here. This meant that the sorcerer had killed at least four to five hundred people!
Seeing these human puppets, Ye Qing's eyes turned red. This sorcerer treated human lives like grass, killing so many people, it was simply a challenge to the limits of humanity!
Seeing Ye Qing being thrown out, the sorcerer was obviously displeased. He gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice, "You martial artists indeed have some skills to hold out for so long under the siege of so many human puppets. It seems I underestimated you before. But what of it? Today, I'll make sure you all die here!"
The sorcerer roared madly, biting off three fingers and throwing them out. Stimulated by this, the human puppets became even more frenzied, almost leaping as they pounced towards Ding Lianshun and Yin Xianzi.
Ye Qing, standing on the beam, could clearly see that Yin Xianzi and Ding Lianshun were gradually getting overwhelmed by these human puppets. This made Ye Qing worried. Could it be that these two peak masters were about to be killed by the human puppets?
Actually, in such a situation, Yin Xianzi and Ding Lianshun were not in life-threatening danger. With their skills, they could slowly retreat from the area and deal with the human puppets one by one, eventually breaking free from this predicament. But the issue was, they had to protect Ye Qing while also trying to kill the sorcerer, which forced them into this dilemma. Although there was no immediate danger, killing the sorcerer seemed completely impossible now.
Ye Qing didn't know this. He thought these two were in danger, which made him even more agitated. He took off his coat, tied the child to the beam, and then gripped the Wu Hong Dagger tightly. Letting out a roar, he suddenly jumped down from the beam, directly into the throng of human puppets.
Once Ye Qing came down, a dozen human puppets pounced on him, grabbing and biting, pushing him into the middle.
"What the hell, why did you come down!" Ding Lianshun shouted loudly.
"I'm here to help you!" Ye Qing shouted as he climbed out of the crowd with all his strength.
Ding Lianshun and Yin Xianzi were at a loss for words. Honestly, Ye Qing jumping down to stand with them in such a situation deeply moved them. But despite the feeling, Ye Qing could offer little help coming down and instead became someone they needed to protect, essentially a burden.
"Go back up first, we two are fine!" Yin Xianzi shouted loudly.
"No need!" Ye Qing also got stubborn, gripping the Wu Hong Dagger tightly, blocking the human puppets around him, and shouted, "If you two are fine, just help me kill the sorcerer, the child can't hold on much longer!"
Ding Lianshun said urgently, "Nonsense, I want to kill him too, but with so many human puppets around, can I kill him?"
Ye Qing knew Ding Lianshun was truly powerless. He could only grit his teeth and do everything he could to charge towards the sorcerer. However, there were just too many human puppets around. Moreover, after the sorcerer threw out three fingers, the human puppets became even more frenzied. After walking a while, Ye Qing hadn't gotten far and was instead overwhelmed by a group of human puppets.
Yin Xianzi saw the situation from afar and got anxious. She swung her long whip, sweeping away two human puppets. But there were too many human puppets surrounding Ye Qing, and even though she swept away several, Ye Qing was still inundated within them. Rescuing Ye Qing was proving to be extremely difficult.
Lying on the ground, Ye Qing's condition was extremely critical. Five human puppets were already biting him. He couldn't afford to stop for a moment, having to roll desperately, dodging and using the Wu Hong Dagger to attack the human puppets. But there were just too many human puppets, and trapped among them , he had no chance of escape. At this rate, he feared he would be bitten to death by the human puppets first!
Ding Lianshun and Yin Xianzi tried several times to come to his rescue, but there were too many human puppets, and they were also surrounded, unable to break through. Ye Qing was engulfed among the human puppets, and they could not see the situation inside, feeling a chill in their hearts. Could it be that Ye Qing was going to die here?
The sorcerer on the outer rim was filled with excitement and triumph. To him, Ye Qing and the others were utterly doomed and would certainly die under these human puppets.
"Huaxia National Martial Artists, humph, are just so-so!" the sorcerer shouted loudly, his words full of mockery.
Yin Xianzi and Ding Lianshun were visibly infuriated, about to retort. Who knew, a voice came in before either could speak.
The voice was extremely cold, stirring an indescribable chill. Even though the person hadn't appeared, it made others instinctively start to fear.
"Who is it!?" Yin Xianzi and Ding Lianshun simultaneously turned their heads to look. The fact that someone appeared here without them noticing shocked both of them.
To be able to achieve such stealth, one would at least need to be a master on par with the Five Uniques. But, how many masters of that caliber are there in Huaxia?
Ye Qing felt a familiar sensation hearing the voice. He paused in surprise, exclaiming, "The Blood Robe Sect Leader?"
Upon hearing Ye Qing's words, the expressions of Yin Xianzi and Ding Lianshun changed, exclaiming, "Bloody Monk?"
"Hahaha..." A cold laugh was heard from outside. Before the person even arrived, something swooshed in, directly piercing through the roof and stabbing a human puppet, landing right in front of Ye Qing.
Ye Qing was being besieged by dozens of human puppets, struggling to dodge when suddenly something fell in front of him, startling him. Upon closer inspection, to his surprise, he discovered it was a longsword. And the most crucial part was, it was the Seven-Star Ancient Sword!
The Seven-Star Ancient Sword, the only famed instrument Ye Qing could wield!
Ye Qing was momentarily stunned; the Seven-Star Ancient Sword had been taken by the Bloody Monk. What was going on? Could it be that the Bloody Monk threw it in here? What was he intending?
"Ye Qing, borrow the Seven-Star Ancient Sword for half an hour, return it to me after use!" the voice of the Bloody Monk resonated from outside.
Upon hearing this, Ye Qing felt no resentment but rather gratitude. He let out a loud howl, grabbed the Seven-Star Ancient Sword with a backhand and forcefully pulled it out.
The sword came out of its sheath with a resonant dragon's cry that shook the entire area, deafeningly loud.
Holding the Seven-Star Ancient Sword, an inexplicable excitement surged within Ye Qing. With this sword, he felt his courage was bolstered and his body exhilarated!
Ye Qing looked at the Seven-Star Ancient Sword and said softly, "Old friend, it's up to you now!" ᴛhis chapter is ᴜpdated by 𝔫𝔬𝔳𝔢𝔩⁂𝔣𝔦𝔯𝔢⁂𝔫𝔢𝔱
As soon as the words left his mouth, Ye Qing gripped the Seven-Star Ancient Sword tightly and unleashed a sweeping move.
The Seven-Star Ancient Sword, as if responding to Ye Qing's excitement or finally able to act, emitted a clear dragon roar as Ye Qing exerted force. The sword aura extended outward, effortlessly slicing through everything, including the human puppets. With this one strike, Ye Qing cut down over a dozen human puppets around him, spilling blood everywhere!
From afar, Ding Lianshun and Yin Xianzi were astonished at the sight, exclaiming, "What a formidable Seven-Star Ancient Sword!"
Ye Qing hadn't expected such power from the Seven-Star Ancient Sword, and he was startled as well. Unaware that his own strength had been increasing, using the Seven-Star Ancient Sword again naturally unleashed even greater power.
Nonetheless, the surge of energy invigorated Ye Qing. He leapt up again, slashing with another swift strike, felling two more human puppets to the ground. These puppets stood no chance near him.
Seeing this, the sorcerer was completely stunned. It took him a moment to recover, his face changing drastically. He gritted his teeth, saying, "I won't let you win, I won't let you win!"
The sorcerer began in a low voice but ended up shouting maniacally. He drew a curved blade from his waist, gritted his teeth, and with a sudden exertion, severed his entire left arm.
Nobody expected the sorcerer to act so crazily. As his left arm was severed, blood gushed out, staining the sorcerer's entire outfit red. He felt no pain but instead glared menacingly at Ye Qing and the others, roaring, "I'm going to make you die!"
After roaring, the sorcerer threw his severed arm away. As if provoked, the human puppets all let out a wild roar, making the entire factory buzz with sound!
