Urban Martial Saint

Chapter 2187 - 2187: Ye Qing Arrives (6th Update)

As Bai Yonghui and Bloody Monk just started fighting, Wolf Monk also directly looked at Wu Tianyong and said, "Let's not stay idle, come, let's go a few rounds together!"Wu Tianyong knew well that since he had stepped out, this battle was unavoidable. Fortunately, Bloody Monk directly chose Bai Yonghui for the duel, leaving him to face Wolf Monk, which relieved a lot of pressure. It wasn't that he thought he could defeat Wolf Monk, mainly because Wolf Monk wasn't as bloodthirsty as Bloody Monk. Even if he wasn't able to win against Wolf Monk, there was still room for maneuver.

Seeing Wolf Monk walking towards him, Wu Tianyong clasped his fists and said, "Xiaolin Temple's unique skill is known worldwide. Today, I have the honor of exchanging a few moves with a descendant of Xiaolin Temple."

Bai Yonghui was battling Bloody Monk and couldn't help but curse Wu Tianyong in his heart upon hearing his words. These words were made to sound dignified, first boosting Wolf Monk, just wanting to leave himself a way out in case Wolf Monk really goes all out. Wu Tianyong indeed gained a great advantage facing Wolf Monk.

Bai Yonghui actually wanted to fight Wolf Monk, but the key issue was that Bloody Monk had set his sights on him, leaving him no choice at all.

Previously, he had only watched Bloody Monk and Zhou Haoyang fighting from afar, not personally experiencing it, so he wasn't clear about Bloody Monk's strength. But now, after exchanging dozens of moves with Bloody Monk, he felt even more alarmed. Bloody Monk's strength far exceeded his prior estimation, and he didn't even know how Zhou Haoyang managed to hold up for so long under Bloody Monk's hands because he already felt a bit powerless after just a while. Bloody Monk was as vigorous as ever, not looking like someone who had just competed against a Peak Master.

Bai Yonghui did not know that Bloody Monk himself thrived by fighting longer and longer, his ferocity getting more stimulated, and his combat power naturally becoming stronger. The previous fight with Zhou Haoyang was just a warm-up for Bloody Monk. Hence, Bai Yonghui now faced an even mightier Bloody Monk, freshly warmed-up, and losing was only normal.

Moreover, Bloody Monk practiced Tranquil Heart Bodhi, which is a unique skill to enhance Inner Strength. Bloody Monk's Inner Strength is far richer than a normal Peak Master, so he didn't really expend much energy in the fight with Zhou Haoyang. Thus, fighting Bai Yonghui now, Bloody Monk remained at his peak, his combat strength naturally formidable.

However, Bai Yonghui had witnessed Bloody Monk quickly and cleanly dealing with Zhou Haoyang earlier, and his heart was filled with caution towards Bloody Monk. Now, facing Bloody Monk one-on-one, he was already psychologically defeated. Coupled with Bloody Monk's strength far exceeding his estimation, naturally, the more he fought, the more fearful he became. Consequentially losing in mind first led to unreliable fighting outcomes. Even if his strength matched Zhou Haoyang, the time he held out against Bloody Monk was shorter, hence it was only a matter of time before he was defeated.

As for Wolf Monk and Wu Tianyong beside them, their situation was better. First, Wu Tianyong hadn't said anything previously to anger Wolf Monk, so Wolf Monk wasn't fighting recklessly. Second, Wolf Monk's strength wasn't on par with Bloody Monk. Third, Wolf Monk was inherently less bloodthirsty than Bloody Monk, his moves naturally not as ruthless. Considering all three points, Wu Tianyong was actually fighting rather comfortably. After such a long time, they were still evenly matched!

Helian Tiehua was blocked by White-haired Ding San. In fact, given Helian Tiehua's strength, he could have defeated White-haired Ding San long ago. But he couldn't do that, because he knew Ding San trained in Human-shaped Gu, and unless he was hurt, he couldn't be stopped. Once he injured Ding San, it meant forming enmities with Bloody Monk, and Helian Tiehua really didn't want to make enemies with Bloody Monk now. Therefore, after such a long time, he was still being blocked by Ding San, unable to advance to stop Bloody Monk.

In such a situation now, Helian Tiehua knew even if he could break through, at most, he'd engage in a forced duel with Bloody Monk, entirely unable to hinder Bloody Monk. So, he could only hope Ye Qing would arrive quickly to control the situation first.

Meanwhile, Ye Qing was indeed on his way over. However, along the way, he also inquired about what had happened here, leading Bloody Monk to battle with the Seven Steering Committees of Hong Alliance.

Chen San, having always had a good relationship with the Huangfu Household, and considering Ye Qing as a brother, was very displeased with Zhou Haoyang's bullying of Huangfu Zilong earlier. So, hearing Ye Qing ask, he angrily recounted the incident.

Ye Qing did not anticipate such events, but upon hearing that Huangfu Zilong was nearly beaten to death by Zhou Haoyang, his eyes turned icy cold. Even though he didn't utter a word, a murderous intent formed against Zhou Haoyang!

Huangfu Zilong is Huangfu Ziyu's younger brother, essentially Ye Qing's brother-in-law. His own brother-in-law being beaten so severely naturally angered Ye Qing, no matter how good-tempered he might be. Furthermore, this incident wasn't Zilong's fault at all but Zhou Haoyang's intentional bullying of Huangfu Household's people. Ye Qing certainly would not tolerate such things.

Seeing Ye Qing's change in expression, Chen San understood what Ye Qing was contemplating. Actually, let alone Ye Qing, even he couldn't stand it, let alone Ye Qing. However, despite being dissatisfied with Zhou Haoyang, Chen San always had a clear insight into situations. Now was absolutely not the time for impulsive actions.

"Ye Zi, I know you're upset inside. However, this matter is very troublesome, and you still have to prioritize the bigger picture!" Chen San whispered, "If the Bloody Monk really kills Zhou Haoyang, it'll be a problem. The grudges between Sha Men and the Seven Steering Committees of the Hong Alliance will be completely settled. Although the Bloody Monk is indeed very strong, the Seven Rudders have accumulated hundreds of years of history and many hidden masters haven't appeared yet. If the Seven Rudders were to fully target Sha Men, it would be very bad for the Bloody Monk. So, no matter what, the Bloody Monk cannot kill Zhou Haoyang!"

Ye Qing took a gentle breath and slowly looked at Chen San, saying, "Third Brother, don't worry, of course, I'll prioritize the bigger picture!"

Ye Qing's words eased Chen San's mind greatly. However, for some reason, he still felt a kind of indescribable worry. Ye Qing's tone seemed calm, but he always felt that behind Ye Qing's calmness, there was a storm brewing.

With Ye Qing's character of being able to oppose everyone in the world, how could this matter end peacefully?

Ultimately, it's all because of that old undying Zhou Haoyang, not only exploiting his age but also relying on his power to bully others. And now look, he started the trouble, yet others have to worry about solving it for him, it's truly hateful.

Silently muttering in his mind, Chen San hurried towards the battlefield with Ye Qing. Meanwhile, Bai Yonghui was already completely suppressed by the Bloody Monk, and it seemed he would be defeated shortly.

Bai Yonghui himself was also extremely depressed. No matter how you say it, Zhou Haoyang fought with the Bloody Monk for more than half an hour. Yet when he came up, he'd been fighting for less than ten minutes and was already in this situation. Was his strength really that far off from Zhou Haoyang's?

Bai Yonghui had known Zhou Haoyang for a long time and often sparred together, and he was very familiar with Zhou Haoyang's strength, which was on par with his own. Logically, if Zhou Haoyang could hold out under the Bloody Monk for half an hour, he should be able to hold out for even longer. After all, the Bloody Monk had fought Zhou Haoyang first and certainly used up quite a bit of energy. But why was he defeated even quicker under the Bloody Monk's hand? Could it be that the Bloody Monk retained his strength when fighting Zhou Haoyang?

Lost in chaotic thoughts, Bai Yonghui was already completely unable to resist. And by this time, Chen San arrived at the scene with Ye Qing. Seeing the situation, he hurriedly pulled Ye Qing, saying, "Ye Zi, hurry up, don't let them fight anymore!"

Ye Qing did not directly speak to stop the fight, but rather looked at Bai Yonghui combatting the Bloody Monk and asked in a deep voice, "Who is this person?"

"Bai Yonghui the Elder of the Bai Family!" Chen San directly replied.

"So he's Bai Yonghui!" A gleam flashed in Ye Qing's eyes, as he knew Bai Yonghui was the Bai Family elder who had opinions about him and wanted revenge. Since he knew his identity, under these circumstances, how could Ye Qing directly intervene to stop? The Bloody Monk was clearly in a favorable position, so he'd use this opportunity to injure Bai Yonghui first!

Chen San glanced at Ye Qing. He didn't know what Ye Qing was thinking, but seeing Ye Qing had no intent to stop the fight, he became anxious, saying, "Ye Zi, you need to stop this quickly. Otherwise, Elder Bai might not hold out much longer!"

What Ye Qing wanted was for Bai Yonghui not to hold out, so Chen San's words only made Ye Qing less likely to intervene. Of course, Ye Qing wouldn't outright refuse, that would be too obvious.

"I don't know if I can stop the Blood Robe Sect Leader, after all, he's a senior high master, how could he be stopped by just a word from me?" Ye Qing said offhandedly, showing no intention to intervene.

Chen San said, "You hold great gratitude for Sha Men, the Blood Robe Sect Leader always remembers your kindness. He's a person who repays kindness. If you speak up, he will surely give you face!"

"That's just your speculation, who knows if it'll work!" Ye Qing continued to stall for time, "Besides, with them fighting so fiercely now, if I speak up at this moment, wouldn't that distract them?"
