Chapter 76

The others in the courtyard had already hidden in the rooms at the side, vacating the courtyard.

Lin Yan instructed, "All of you, come out! Search him and the soldiers and see if they have the antidote on them!"

Seeing Lin Yan's gaze sweep towards them, they shivered and subconsciously covered their backs.

F*ck!

One stab was not enough. He stabbed twice! He even kicked the daggers!

Every move was aimed at a weakness. This fighting style was too vicious!

"Hurry up! Kill them while you're at it!"

"Alright, alright, I understand!"

A few of the people who were not badly poisoned and who still had strength, quickly walked out and searched the corpses one by one.

Lin Yan walked over, picked up the iron hook that weighed nearly 200 catties, and quickly rushed to the street.

The street outside Qinghong Martial Arts School was already empty, leaving only Xie Lingyan and Commander Shen. The two of them exchanged blows, each move killing the enemy's vital points.

Lin Yan could clearly see that Xie Lingyan's strength was extremely strange. Every punch and kick had a tsunami-like force surging, as if it was causing layers of ripples in the air, almost suppressing the commander.

However, the commander was wearing iron armor and had extremely strong defense. With the strength of the Tough Realm, Xie Lingyan could not hit him at all.

Therefore, the two of them were in a stalemate. Their fists were filled with blood to the extreme. As they collided, there seemed to be the sound of metal colliding. Clearly, their blood energy had surged to the limit and they were fighting with all their might.

The senses of a Tough Realm cultivator were extremely sharp. Lin Yan knew his limits. There was no hope of a sneak attack.

He simply pressed his wrist and dragged the 200-pound iron hook to the ground, drawing a crooked white mark as he approached the battlefield.

The iron hook scratched the ground, ear-piercing and sharp. The two of them couldn't ignore him even if they wanted to.

When Xie Lingyan saw him, her eyes lit up and her expression relaxed. The furrow between her eyebrows melted like a spring breeze.

On the other hand, Commander Shen's expression changed drastically. The anger and shock in his eyes were innumerable as he shouted, "Eighth Brother! Eighth Brother!"

However, the only response he received was the cold sound of the iron hook.

"F*ck!"

Commander Shen immediately had the intention to retreat. His movements immediately became much more forceful, wanting to force Xie Lingyan back.

However, Xie Lingyan's fist strength was astonishing. Coupled with the special nature of her force, she did not give Commander Shen any chance at all and firmly pressed him in place.

At the same time, Lin Yan quickly jumped out with the iron hook. He didn't participate in the siege of Commander Shen. He ran to a distance of about 60 to 70 feet behind him and raised the iron hook, eager to give it a try.

"F*ckyou! F*ck!"

Commander Shen finally couldn't help but panic. If Lin Yan attacked, he could rely on his iron armor to defend. He could still find a flaw in their siege and escape.

However, Lin Yan was only standing in the blind spot diagonally behind him. His posture of not attacking gave him even more pressure than a head-on attack!

Commander Shen kept changing his position, but Lin Yan was like a parasite attached to his bones. He did not approach and moved with him, maintaining a distance behind him. From time to time, he would raise the iron hook in his hand, looking like he was about to throw it, causing Commander Shen to have no choice but to be extremely vigilant.

"Despicable! Come at me together if you have the ability!"

Commander Shen was furious, but Lin Yan turned a deaf ear to him.

After being frightened by Lin Yan several times and revealing a flaw, Commander Shen roared and ignored Lin Yan, focusing on dealing with Xie Lingyan.

He could already tell that Xie Lingyan's blood energy was about to be exhausted!

After all, he was wearing iron armor. Under the obstruction of the force, he consumed much less energy than Xie Lingyan.

Wasn't it just a war of attrition?

After a while…

Splash!

An ear-piercing sound of chains colliding approached quickly. Commander Shen was shocked. Just as he was about to turn around, Xie Lingyan, who was in front, placed her palms on his head and struck his temples.

Commander Shen decisively made a choice. He raised his hand to block Xie Lingyan's two attacks, but he realized that Xie Lingyan's position had suddenly changed. The strength of her palms was actually weak!

"F*ck…"

Bang!

The sound of the iron hook and iron armor colliding was like a brass bell ringing. Commander Shen suddenly felt a sharp pain in his waist and abdomen. The force immediately dissipated, and his body staggered forward unconsciously. He lost his balance and fell from Xie Lingyan's side.

"What!"

Commander Shen's eyes were filled with shock. With his Tough Realm defense and the defense of his iron armor, the iron hook could at most make him short for breath for a while. It was impossible for him to disperse his strength.

However, he could not withstand it. The iron hook was actually aimed at the injury on his lower right abdomen!

Injury on top of injury!

"Despicable and shameless person…"

This thought became his last wish in the world.

Xie Lingyan, who had already assumed a posture, channeled her strength through her arms. The four fingers on her hands bent slightly and formed the shape of a mantis. One vertical and horizontal, one high and one low, she assumed a strange posture. Then, in an instant, she threw eight punches! "Eight Arms Vanquishing Demon!"

Lin Yan's gaze was stern. At this moment, Xie Lingyan's blood energy boiled, and the dragon bone on her back trembled. It was as if eight arms had grown out and attacked at the same time!

One punch was divided into eight punches. The eight punches combined into one punch and hit the back of Commander Shen's unprotected head, causing his entire head to explode.

Xie Lingyan, on the other hand, was light and agile. Before the dirt touched her body, she retreated ten feet away. However, her face was slightly pale, and her palm was trembling slightly. It seemed that using this move had a heavy burden on her.

She looked down and thought of her dead junior brothers. Clearly, an hour ago, everyone was still chatting and laughing.

With a clang, Xie Lingyan came back to her senses and saw Lin Yan walking over with the big iron hook.

The two of them looked at each other and recalled their incomparably tacit and seamless cooperation just now. A sense of appreciation appeared in their eyes. "Miss Xie, was that a big move you used just now?"

"A big move? That move just now is called Eight Arms Vanquishing Demon. It's the ultimate killing move of the martial arts technique 1 practice."

"Ultimate killing move?"

"Practice martial arts in the Strength Realm to grasp the essence. Practice martial arts in the Tough Realm to sharpen your ultimate killing move. If you can cultivate a martial arts technique to the Major Accomplishment Realm, you can master a special killing move according to your strength. In an instant, you can unleash a huge power."

"There's an ultimate killing move in every martial art?"

"Not really. Usually, it only exists above secret techniques. This is also the reason why secret martial arts techniques become secret techniques."

Xie Lingyan seemed to have thought of something and frowned slightly. "Since you're at the Tough Realm of the Dragon Gate Pavilion, don't you know that after mastering the Dragon-Shaped Fist, you will know the ultimate killing move of Roaming Dragon Crossing?"

Lin Yan paused.

Xie Lingyan thought about it carefully again and felt that it was more and more strange. "That's not right. I've been paying attention to the Tough Realm in Ding'an City. If a new Tough Realm disciple appeared in Dragon Gate Pavilion, it would have spread the news everywhere. Where exactly did you come from?"

Lin Yan's expression remained the same. He squatted down and went to the dead commander's side to quickly search.

He said indifferently, "Miss Xie, I'm afraid you've forgotten that I just broke through to the Tough Realm recently. Moreover, 1 don't like to be in the limelight. When we reach the Dragon Gate Pavilion, please keep it a secret for me."

Xie Lingyan glanced at him with her watery eyes, and a meaningful look flashed across them.

"There's no harm in keeping it a secret for you. However, you have to answer a question of mine."

Lin Yan took off the commander's armor and put it on unceremoniously. He asked, "There's no harm in saying it."

Xie Lingyan's beautiful face was slightly smiling. Her clear voice was as calm as an ancient well, like a cold spring in a deep valley. "Tell me, what did you mean by moist?"

Lin Yan's movements froze slightly..
