Urban Martial Saint

Wu Zishi's threat was still very effective. Upon hearing his words, the crowd, initially avoiding the confrontation, rushed forward immediately. This time, no one dared to dodge; everyone was desperately charging at Ye Qing.

Faced with such a situation, Ye Qing became extremely anxious. He desperately tried to evade, hoping to keep away from these people. However, there were just too many of them. Ye Qing couldn't dodge and was hit by one of them.

Without any power inside him, although the hit didn't really hurt him, the crucial point was that he didn't have the strength to support himself. The one who hit him was an old man, far stronger than Wu Zishi's disciples, even causing Ye Qing to step back two steps.

Everyone witnessed this situation; the old man who had just punched Ye Qing was stunned, still not having figured out why his punch had such strength.

Above, Wu Zishi suddenly shone with a sharp glint in his eyes, staring intently at Ye Qing, and suddenly shouted loudly, "Everyone attack together, don't be afraid of him. This kid really has no Inner Strength left, he's just agile, and his dagger is sharp. Once you seize the dagger, he'll be like a toothless tiger!"

Wu Zishi was indeed sharp-eyed, quickly seeing through Ye Qing's situation. Upon hearing his words, the crowd below immediately became excited, yelling as they rushed toward Ye Qing.

Ye Qing was in a dire situation; the three old men's strength was not top-level but close enough. How could he fight such a battle? He was just one person, how could he defeat so many people!

What should he do now? Was he really going to be captured by these people?

Ye Qing didn't recognize the Five Poison Sect people, but he knew very well that they were capturing him for the Wanyan Family's reward. In other words, once caught, he would be sent to the Wanyan Family, and that was the last thing Ye Qing wanted to happen. Given his relationship with the Wanyan Family, if he fell into their hands, the outcome wouldn't be good. Although Ye Qing wasn't afraid of the Wanyan Family, the real problem was that if the Wanyan Family used him to threaten Shen Tianjun, Liu Mubai, Bloody Monk, and others, they might end up controlled by the Wanyan Family because of Ye Qing, which was something Ye Qing truly didn't want to see!

So, the biggest thought in Ye Qing's heart was that he must not be caught by these people, even if he had to die.

In the current situation, not wanting to be captured, Ye Qing had only one way out!

Ye Qing desperately swung the dagger in his hand, avoiding the first wave of their assault, while simultaneously looking at the Snake Cave behind him. There's no road in the canyon below; the only path is through this Snake Cave. If Ye Qing didn't want to be caught by these people, he could only go into this Snake Cave.

Of course, the Snake Cave inside was even more dangerous, and once inside, Ye Qing might end up buried in the snake's belly. But for Ye Qing, even dying here was better than being captured by the Wanyan family!

Without any hesitation, after dodging another wave of assault, Ye Qing dashed to the Snake Cave's side, hurriedly crawling in with both hands and feet.

The outer part of the Snake Cave was relatively spacious, and before the people outside had reacted, most of Ye Qing's body was already inside the Snake Cave.

Wu Zishi was also stunned, surprised that Ye Qing would escape this way. However, he quickly regained his composure, pointed at Ye Qing, and shouted, "Grab him! Get him for me!"

The people below had rushed over, but Ye Qing was even faster. Using hands and feet, he frantically crawled forward, and before anyone reached the Snake Cave, his entire body was already inside.

This time, the Five Poison Sect members were all stunned. They did not know what kind of cave it was, but with Ye Qing having crawled inside, what should they do now?

Seeing Ye Qing enter the Snake Cave, Wu Zishi was again stunned but soon angrily shouted, "What are you dawdling for? Get in there and bring him out for me! I'm telling you, if you don't catch Ye Qing today, none of you will live!"

The crowd below exchanged glances, not daring to disobey Wu Zishi. However, none wanted to be the first into the Snake Cave, as no one wanted to die inside it.

"Why are you dawdling?" Wu Zishi shouted angrily again. He could see the people's concerns and pointed at one of the old men, shouting, "Third Brother, you're the leader, you go in first!"

"Me?" Third Brother was stunned, not expecting Wu Zishi to send him as the pioneer.

"Get in quickly!" Wu Zishi said, opening the ceramic bottle in his hand and said in a deep voice, "If you don't get in, I'll kill you first!"

Third Brother was startled, looked at the Snake Cave, then at the porcelain bottle in Wu Zishi's hand, and finally resignedly crawled into the Snake Cave. He was not willing to try the power of the Seven Extremes Powder at all.

As Third Brother entered, the others followed closely behind, one after the other, crawling into the Snake Cave in pursuit of Ye Qing. Wu Zishi stood on the cliff, staring fixedly at the Snake Cave, looking extremely tense.

Inside the Snake Cave, Ye Qing was rapidly crawling forward. The interior of the Snake Cave had become slightly smaller, but fortunately the Giant Snake was quite large, wider than a human's body. So, Ye Qing crawled inside without any hindrance, though he did feel somewhat oppressed.

Hearing others crawling in behind him, Ye Qing became even more worried. He couldn't afford to pay attention to the danger of the Giant Snake ahead; he sped up his crawling. Even if he died in the snake's belly, he couldn't fall into the hands of the Wanyan Family!

After crawling about fifty to sixty meters forward, Ye Qing saw the Giant Snake from a distance, slumbering within the cave. It seemed that Ye Qing had frightened it earlier, causing it to retreat here.

Seeing the Giant Snake, Ye Qing really felt a surge of anger at the sight of an enemy, and immediately gripped the dagger and charged forward. Putting aside other matters, he needed to kill the Giant Snake to avenge Lin Tianyou!

The Giant Snake had its tail facing outwards, but it clearly sensed the situation behind. Whether it felt Ye Qing's hostility or something else, it swiftly fled, giving Ye Qing no chance for revenge.

The speed of the Giant Snake in the Snake Cave was naturally much faster than Ye Qing, and it quickly disappeared without a trace. Ye Qing didn't pause because the people behind him were still in hot pursuit. He crawled rapidly in the cave; revenge was no longer his concern, at least he couldn't let these people catch him.

After crawling for ten minutes, Ye Qing suddenly felt the cave tilt downward slightly, making crawling easier. He didn't know what lay ahead in the Snake Cave, but with people trailing him, he had no choice but to accelerate forward.

After crawling for an indeterminate length of time, the Snake Cave gradually widened. Initially, crawling was the only option, but as he went further, the Cave expanded enough so he could crouch and run.

Under such conditions, Ye Qing's speed naturally increased considerably. He quickly stood up, hunching over as he moved forward. The farther he ran, the wider the Cave became, until it completely resembled a Stone Corridor. Ye Qing accelerated within the Stone Corridor, running wildly, while footsteps behind signaled that the pursuers had caught up.

By this time, Ye Qing had no time to ponder why such a Stone Corridor existed within the mountain's interior; he only wanted to evade his followers. He increased his speed, running forward, and soon found himself inside a Stone Chamber.

The Stone Chamber was quite spacious, with a Stone Platform resembling a stone bed. There was a Stone Table nearby, equipped with a kettle and teacup, seeming like a dwelling. Strangely, the entire Cave was spotlessly clean, without a speck of dust, as if someone lived here and cleaned regularly.

Ye Qing hadn't expected the Snake Cave's end to reveal such a place. Observing the surroundings filled him with shock and confusion. Based on the distance traveled inside the Snake Cave, he should be within the mountain's interior. But who could have imagined such a hidden world within Medicine King Mountain's depths?

Despite his shock and confusion, Ye Qing couldn't linger for long; footsteps echoed closer from behind. Ye Qing sped forward, rushing through the Stone Chamber and into another Stone Corridor. This Corridor then split into five separate paths, each leading in different directions.

This left Ye Qing unsure of which path to choose—where did these five directions lead? Could there be some kind of mechanism within these mountain chambers?

While hesitating at the crossroads, an angry shout echoed from behind: "Ye, let's see where you're going to run!"

Ye Qing turned to see an elderly man charging forward aggressively—it was the leader, Third Brother. Free from the confines of the Snake Cave, his spirits were lifted, and he aimed to capture Ye Qing to gain favor. Spotting Ye Qing, he impatiently rushed ahead.

Trailing Third Brother was a group of people—the very ones who had chased in earlier. Ye Qing realized he could not face them in battle within the Cave; victory was impossible. Hence, Ye Qing had no choice but to continue fleeing.

However, which of the five paths to take posed a dilemma.

Ye Qing took a deep breath, didn't overthink, and chose one of the Stone Corridors to dash into. The crowd behind gave chase, desperate to catch Ye Qing swiftly.

Shortly after the group entered the Stone Corridor, another large head emerged from a different corridor—it was the Giant Snake. Peering curiously at the corridor Ye Qing and the others entered, the serpent slowly coiled, as if contemplating something.

At that moment, another person emerged from a separate corridor, looking at the Giant Snake and softly asking, "Senior Green, what happened earlier? Why does it sound like there's a disturbance?"
