Baojiao County, nighttime.
Tap tap~~
Li Yutang led three hundred elites of the Fish and Dragon Association, wearing specially-made leather boots, which made a creaking sound on the bluestone slabs. Even though they intentionally controlled it, the footsteps of so many people together still made quite a noise.
Immediately, many of the merchants and commoners on both sides of the street were awakened, quietly peeking outside through their windows.
Upon seeing so many people advancing rapidly in uniform on the street, even the most clueless commoners were frightened with their hearts pounding wildly.
"Who are these people? Are they soldiers? Why are they moving at night?"
But they couldn't see any armor on these people, only figures in the dim moonlight.
"Two or three miles ahead is North Street, where Medicine King Hall is located..."
Walking at the front, Li Yutang's eyes seemed like bright lamps, flashing with a fiery and ruthless urgency, his heart full of confidence and anticipation:
"After tonight, the world will change, and Baojiao County will be dominated by my Fish and Dragon Association alone!"
On their path forward.
At the corner of the street not far away, the sound of the night watchman from Baojiao County Yamen suddenly rang out:
"First watch of Xu hour, beware of fire in the dry weather."
A gong sounded.
Li Yutang immediately turned back to give his subordinates a glance.
"Beware of fire in the dry weather..."
Night watchman Wang Lao Liu, holding a drum and gong, just stepped out from the street corner, only to catch a glimpse of a line of hundreds of shadows moving rapidly in the darkness on the street before he could cry out in alarm.
Swish!
A figure flashed before him in an instant, performing the Fish and Dragon Association's martial skill 'Dragon Tiger Grappling Hand', followed by a crisp 'crack' sound.
"Ah..." The watchman could only let out a slight groan of pain from his throat.
His entire body and the gong he was about to drop were caught steadily by a hand and his corpse was tossed into a corner of the alley.
Having dealt with the watchman who could have exposed their presence,
Li Yutang led the team forward swiftly.
However, not even half a cup of tea's time later, a loud noise from the direction of the county government office erupted, accompanied by shouts and flames, spreading out several miles in an instant.
"The people of Peace Path have successfully breached the county office, we must hurry as well, intercept everyone from Medicine King Hall who might aid the county office..."
Under Li Yutang's command, the team's pace towards Medicine King Hall quickened even further.
Yet,
Just as he led his men with one foot stepping into North Street where Medicine King Hall was located.
Whoosh! Whoosh!!
As a master of the Strong Level within the Five Realms, Li Yutang instinctively sensed an extremely fierce and terrifying air current charging at him from the oblique rear!
"Not good, an ambush!!"
Li Yutang instinctively shouted, feeling the overpowering momentum bearing down, without hesitation he drew a fine treasure blade of Famous Weapon Level from his back, slashing towards the direction of the attack.
This strike unleashed the Fish and Dragon Association's ultimate skill 'Fish-Dragon Hundred Transformation Saber', as the blade swung out, resembling a golden carp riding the waves, rippling out hundreds of sword energies in mid-air.
As one of the top three masters in Baojiao County, and the head of the Fish and Dragon Association, his bladesmanship had already been honed to the Perfection Realm.
He was confident that this strike, even if the attacker was Yang Luochen, could withstand the opponent's Furious Ape Mighty Staff!
Yet,
At the moment this blade swung out, Li Yutang realized there was no weapon beneath his strike, only the ghostly emergence of a young figure from the ground.
After the youth appeared, he charged at him with a fist.
The fist clenched tightly, with a faint golden glow flickering on its surface.
"Chen Ku!!"
The moment Li Yutang's slash met the opponent's fist, he recognized the face of the youth attacking him.
It was none other than Chen Ku, who had plotted against his apprentice Ma Mingfeng, later cooperated with Medicine King Hall to wipe out the Firewood Iron Shop, and recently participated in martial trials, successfully earning the title of Martial Scholar!
"How did he ambush here in advance..."
But Li Yutang had no time to think further.
In the next instant!
Chen Ku's fist had already crashed towards him, directly bursting through the hundreds of blade winds he released with his strike.
Li Yutang's first thought was this kid wasn't using a staff? Why is he using a fist...
As a result, in the next instant of the fist-blade collision, he realized the power of this fist.
Boom!
With Chen Ku's punch unleashed, the bluestone ground beneath their feet was instantly shattered into countless fragments and iron chips, all surging up, all fiercely striking before Li Yutang!
Crackling~~
The air was filled with the sound of countless blade winds being shattered; before Li Yutang's expression could fully change, that fist had already passed through his blade winds, reaching his front.
Boom!
At the crucial moment, Li Yutang used his blade as a shield, supporting it with his right arm, blocking it unhesitatingly in front of him.
Clang!
A sound like a heavy hammer striking arose.
"What..."
Li Yutang, with blade in hand, was instantly blasted backward by this punch, immediately feeling as if dozens of elephants had collided with him simultaneously.
Although he wore a set of inner armor of Famous Weapon Level, it still couldn't withstand the fierce and domineering punch force, causing his internal organs to seemingly shift in an instant!
Crash!
Li Yutang's body was hurled twenty zhang away by the punch, crashing onto North Street, leaving a large pit on the ground.
