“Pillar of my foot!” Huangniu cursed before kicking its hind legs.
This time, Huangniu used more strength and broke Sword Saint and King of Fighters' ribs.
The two men retched blood and rolled down the mountain.
“Are you two idiots? Say, people from Jiangdong, why are you spending time around idiots?”
Sword Saint and King of Fighters enraged Huangniu, who could not hold itself back from cursing.
Then, it questioned the martial artists from China as to why they were spending time with two foolish
men.
However, who would dare to reply to Huangniu?
Sword Saint was the Hall Master of War God Castle, and most of the time, none of them dared to
speak to Sword Saint.
Everyone in China was exceptionally respectful toward Sword Saint.
Yet, Huangniu was currently cursing at those two men.
No one had done that before, and no one would do that again.
Who would truly dare to reply to Huangniu?
Even Ye Qingtian was silent.
Instead, he turned and ran down the mountain to check on King of Fighters and Sword Saint's
condition.
“Stop being foolish, King of Fighters and Sword Saint. Hurry up and follow Huangniu back to
Jiangdong! If Mount Yan's gone, we'll get it back another time. Why are you so adamant about the loss
of this place?” Ye Qingtian gritted out as he tried to convince the two to change their minds.
King of Fighters and Sword Saint were covered in blood.
They were already grievously injured, and the kick from Huangniu only made their injuries worse.
Now, they even had trouble rising to their feet again.
Despite so, Sword Saint shook his head and said, “Ye, you don't understand. King of Fighters, Tang
Hao, and I have been here at Mount Yan for our entire lives, and we've been at War God Castle for that
long too. Our whole life has been spent living on this land. Tang Hao didn't hesitate to end his life to
guard Mount Yan. But now, you're asking King of Fighters and I to give up on the land that Tang Hao
guarded with his life to flee to Jiangdong with you?”
Sword Saint shook his head and laughed. Then, he continued, “Sorry, but we can't do that. We really
can't. How are we going to face Tang Hao if we leave? How will we face Mount Yan, the place we've
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtguarded for years?”
The determination in Sword Saint and King of Fighters' eyes was apparent. They clearly had no
intention to leave with Ye Qingtian.
Ye Qingtian trembled from the rage he felt. “We're only temporarily leaving this place. We'll surely get
this land back if it's possible in the future. Must you die on Mount Yan to be able to face Tang Hao?
Must you die here to be able to face the people who died here? This is nothing but foolishness!”
Indeed, Ye Qingtian could not understand Sword Saint and King of Fighters' stubbornness. After all,
everything was possible as long as one was alive.
That was a simple thing to understand.
However, some people would give up on their lives for something trivial like reputation.
What would that be if not foolishness?
“A goal to reach, perhaps. Ye, when you were up against Chu Yuan earlier, didn't you give up escaping
too? Weren't you willing to use your life to protect the people behind you?”
Mo Gucheng gave him a sorrowful smile.
“Is that the same? The martial artists of China are all going back to Jiangdong with Huangniu. The two
of you should come along with us to continue guarding the surviving martial artists,” Ye Qingtian
refuted.
However, Sword Saint and King of Fighters shook their heads again.
“Ye, we're not the same. You don't understand the feelings we have for War God Castle, and you don't
understand the feelings we have for War God Castle. Honestly, we know that War God Castle is
doomed once we leave. What's the point for us both to keep living once the castle is gone?”
“But...” Ye Qingtian persisted.
Unfortunately, Sword Saint and King of Fighters no longer wanted to heed his words.
“Ye, have you heard about this before? A king dies for his country. When Chongzhen Emperor was up
against the enemies, he could have left Jiangnan to survive, but why didn't he leave? Instead, he chose
to hang himself on a tree! That's because the emperor of a dying emperor has no right to live anymore,
let alone have any dignity to face his people. Ye, let us be. Go with them. The future of China's martial
arts world lies on all of you now.”
Both Sword Saint and King of Fighters had made up their minds.
Instead of going to Jiangdong and Ye Qingtian, they decided to share their fates with the fate of War
God Castle.
Huangniu was livid when it saw how the trio were still talking, and it swore, “Are you going to get
moving or not? You're dilly-dallying so much. Do you want me to give you a good kick and send you to
your afterlife instead?”
“Get moving? Will you?”
Just as Huangniu was done speaking, a deep voice came from the bottom of Mount Yan.
Then, Chu Yuan, who Huangniu had kicked to the bottom of the mountain earlier, shot upward like an
arrow that left its bow.
He came at full force, and his presence commanded instant attention.
“It's the Old Master!”
“The Old Master is out!”
“Hahaha!”
“The Old Master is fine!”
The dispirited Chu Sect fighters regained their motivation at the reappearance of Chu Yuan.
On the other hand, the poor martial artists of China revealed frightened looks on their faces.
Even Ye Qingtian was looking worried.
Although they now had Huangniu in their ranks, Ye Qingtian and the others were still doubtful if
Huangniu could actually go up against Chu Yuan.
“F*ck! You idiots! I asked you to leave, but you didn't want to do that. Now I've got to work hard again!”
Huangniu grumbled when it saw Chu Yuan re-emerge.
Then, it dashed forward to start fighting with Chu Yuan.
Then, it dashed forward to start fighting with Chu Yuan.
“Who are you? Could it be that you're the Sacred Beast that War God Castle has reared?”
Chu Yuan was stunned by Huangniu's appearance.
Moreover, the calf was unpredictably strong. He could not help but began wondering if the calf was
actually a Sacred Beast that guarded China's martial arts world.
It would be just like Chu Sect's Blaze.
Sacred Beasts like them had lived for many years, and they were exceptionally mighty.
“More like you're my foot!”
Huangniu did not bother chitchatting with Chu Yuan. After a curse, it kicked him.
However, Chu Yuan was not going to stand still and let Huangniu kick him this time.
He shot out The Chu's Unrivaled Punch at the calf.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThump!
A foot and a fist collided.
The terrifying shockwave rippled in all directions.
“What?”
Both Chu Yuan and Huangniu were stunned.
Clearly, neither thought much of each other's battle prowess.
Huangniu, especially, had looked down on Chu Yuan's fighting ability.
After all, it had easily kicked Chu Yuan to the bottom earlier.
Nevertheless, Chu Yuan could now hold up against one of its kicks.
“Sh*t! You're quite strong, aren't you? Let's do it again!”
Huangniu roared before swinging its second leg.
Thump!
Chu Yuan then raised his other hand to deflect Huangniu's attack.
“I won't believe this! Again!”
Huangniu refused to believe what it had witnessed.
It then lifted its remaining two legs and kicked Chu Yuan.
Chu Yuan copied its attack and leaped into the air to smack his legs against Huangniu's legs.
“Darn it! You can even defend that?”
Huangniu's eyes widened.
It thought that its four legs would easily defeat the two-handed man.
However, as it turned out, Chu Yuan would have four limbs to use if he were to use his legs as well.
“Still, this isn't the end yet!”
With a sneer, Huangniu spun around to whip its tail at Chu Yuan.
Its tail was longer than a meter, and it was like a whip sweeping across the land.
Smack!
A clear sound rang out when its tail slapped Chu Yuan's face.
Alas, Chu Yuan did not expect that move from Huangniu, and he did not have a tail to copy that attack
either.
Instantly, Chu Yuan's face began bleeding.
“Hahaha! You can't deflect that one, can you?” Huangniu smugly replied.
“You beast! I'll renounce being a human if I don't crush you here today!”
Unlike Huangniu, Chu Yuan felt anger burning in him.
