Urban Martial Saint

On top of the cliff, twenty to thirty people exchanged glances. Initially, they believed Wu Zishi when he said capturing Ye Qing this time would be effortless. But unexpectedly, going down there, those more than twenty people were all resolved by Ye Qing within such a short period.

Of course, Ye Qing dealt with these people relying solely on martial techniques and the dagger in his hand, without showing any force. But the key issue was, although Ye Qing was hit by so many people earlier, he showed no signs of injury, causing everyone to inevitably worry. Given Ye Qing's situation, who said he didn't possess inner strength? Without inner strength, how could he withstand so many attacks?

Everyone's hearts carried shock, all doubting whether Wu Zishi's words were false. Hence, at this moment, no one dared to go down to confront Ye Qing.

Moreover, Ye Qing's words made everyone more certain that Ye Qing definitely possessed strength. If not, how could he be so arrogant as to invite them all down?

These people were unaware that Ye Qing was merely bluffing them. In fact, if all twenty to thirty people were united and coordinated a little better, they could have caught Ye Qing completely. However, the issue was, after Ye Qing resolved those more than twenty people, those above were frightened. Coupled with Ye Qing's arrogant shout, everyone only became more fearful — who dared to take on Ye Qing now?

No one knew exactly how strong Ye Qing was, but his reputation in the world was undeniably loud. Becoming the Alliance Leader of the World, being able to preside over the three major organizations combined in Shenchuan City, and being deemed a significant enemy by the Wanyan Family, could his strength be weak? With such thinking, everyone could only have growing apprehension towards Ye Qing.

Seeing that everyone dared not come down, Ye Qing mildly exhaled in relief — he wanted to intimidate these people. However, his situation was quite troublesome too. With cliff walls all around, he had to grab onto vines to climb to the cliff's top to escape. Yet, those above surely wouldn't let him climb up; currently, he's practically trapped down here.

However, Ye Qing felt no regret. Upon seeing that giant snake earlier, his heart couldn't suppress his rage. Precisely that giant snake had swallowed Lin Tianyou, rendering this kindly Divine Doctor with no remains till today. Ye Qing had always wanted to kill that giant snake to avenge Lin Tianyou!

Seeing the people above dare not act recklessly, Ye Qing ignored them further, instead turning toward the cave the giant snake had slithered into, leaned in to peek carefully, hoping to first kill that giant snake.

The cave wasn't small, but Ye Qing dared not recklessly enter. Inside was a space not quite large for him; he could crawl in, but encountering that giant snake within meant he'd have no resistance. This space could allow one to crawl in, but inside, he couldn't extend his limbs — how could he possibly contend with that giant snake?

Thus, although wanting vengeance for Lin Tianyou, Ye Qing dared not rashly enter the cave. He waited for the giant snake to come out instead. Both sides now faced off here — those twenty to thirty above dared not come down, and Ye Qing couldn't go up, nor dare enter the cave; the situation became very tense.

About ten minutes passed, suddenly chaos erupted among the twenty to thirty people above the cliff. Ye Qing slightly frowned, looking up, seeing there were more people, primarily older individuals.

Upon seeing these people, Ye Qing's face subtly changed. These elders surely weren't weak — if any were top-level masters, Ye Qing would be in trouble. His martial techniques could contend against masters with internal energy release, yet encountering a top-level master was different.

These newcomers were precisely Wu Zishi leading the group. Seeing Ye Qing from afar, a glint flashed in Wu Zishi's eyes.

During the previous battle between Fu Qingping and The Immortal Lord on Mount Tai, the heroes of the world gathered there to watch. As a top-level master, Wu Zishi attended with two disciples. On Mount Tai, he spotted Ye Qing once from afar. Compared to his disciples who'd only seen photos of Ye Qing, Wu Zishi's impression was deeper, recognizing Ye Qing immediately and feeling a surge of excitement. For Ye Qing to him was a chance to become beyond peerless master!

As Wu Zishi approached, his disciples immediately recounted the earlier situation to him. Seeing those bodies sprawled in the valley below, Wu Zishi furrowed his brow. The information he received claimed Ye Qing had lost his inner strength, yet why did he still possess such combat power? Resolving twenty plus individuals alone — how strong could he be?

"Senior Brother, what now?" one of Wu Zishi's disciples asked.

Wu Zishi furrowed his brow tightly. Originally thinking Ye Qing would be captured easily, he hadn't anticipated Ye Qing's strength being still so formidable. Now what should he do — miss such an opportunity?

Of course, Wu Zishi wasn't willing to let this opportunity slip. After musing for a moment, he deeply inhaled, suddenly glancing at several disciples beside him and sternly said, "Third Brother, Fifth Brother, Sixth Brother, take twenty people down and bring Ye up!"

"Ah?" The three elders he pointed to turned pale — the strength of Ye Qing below remained unknown, yet Wu Zishi sent them to capture Ye Qing — wasn't this courting death?

Wu Zishi was also calculating internally. Uncertain of Ye Qing's strength, he didn't dare try personally. Thus, he picked these three disciples to deal with Ye Qing, mainly to probe Ye Qing's power. If Ye Qing proved too strong, they'd immediately flee. If his strength was average, the group would capture Ye Qing — Wu Zishi wouldn't have to act personally!

Wu Zishi's expression remained unchanged, coldly eyeing the three disciples, sternly stating, "Bring him up!"

These three elders exchanged glances again, inwardly cursing Wu Zishi. However, at this moment, even if unwilling, it was impossible not to go down. Wu Zishi was their senior brother, yet truly, these disciples were entirely under Wu Zishi's control. If they dared defy his orders, they'd likely die!

The three elders selected twenty people and let this group descend first. The twenty were naturally reluctant but couldn't resist ultimately, and they nervously climbed down the vines.

Seeing the twenty descending, the three elders followed suit. Clearly, they were stalling, unwilling to confront Ye Qing directly. After descending, all stood far and faced off Ye Qing, none daring to act first.

Wu Zishi seeing this from above furrowed his brow tight, noting these individuals had no intention to act, he loudly shouted angrily, "Why dawdle there? Grab him first!"

The three elders exchanged glances again. One indicated a few people nearby, saying, "Why stand about, go capture him first!"

Those indicated turned pale instantly — how to proceed? Earlier, fighting Ye Qing together, over twenty were slain by Ye Qing. Going now — how different was it from seeking death?

"Uncle Master, we… We're no match for Ye Qing…" a man mournfully stated.

"Damn, useless!" The elder promptly kicked the man onto the ground, saying, "Uncle Master supports from behind, what's there to fear? Don't waste words, go capture him now — otherwise, I'll kill you first!"

Threatened by the elder, all felt terrified, unable to refuse. Trembling, they stood and hesitantly approached Ye Qing, yet none hurried, faces showing terror as if before a beast ready to strike.

Wu Zishi stood above, seeing this scenario furrowed his brows tighter. Initially wanting his three disciples to test Ye Qing's strength, now they let juniors probe — what outcome could that yield?

"All of you go together!" Wu Zishi drew out a ceramic bottle, threateningly from above, saying, "Anyone who dares hesitate, I'll unleash this Seven Extremes Powder!"

Wu Zishi's poison technique was truly formidable; this Seven Extremes Powder wasn't unknown, extremely toxic. Should one be affected, it'd be death by gut-wrenching agony, who'd choose such suffering?

Wu Zishi's intimidation worked — the three elders promptly rushed forward, and others dared not linger, collectively charging toward Ye Qing.

Ye Qing initially held his dagger, staunchly watching the group, wanting to scare them. But seeing all rush over, Ye Qing felt uneasy. So many attacking together — he couldn't match them. Moreover, the descending elders' strength wasn't weak; any one likely beyond him — what to do now?

While Ye Qing's mind raced, the crowd neared swiftly. Facing such, Ye Qing couldn't dodge anymore, gripped his dagger tight, dodging places with most, engaging those ahead.

These individuals were scared earlier by Ye Qing, seeing him strike, they frightfully retreated too late. This gave Ye Qing an opportunity — two lagged slightly, one's throat sliced, another's hand severed, others quickly retreating from Ye Qing's side.

Seeing this scenario, Wu Zishi's expression changed above, shouting angrily, "Why retreat — kill him, or I'll kill you!"
