Chapter 155

Outside, Zhang Ding heard the lady’s words and remained unmoved. He chuckled and said, “Lady and miss, please get out of the carriage first and then talk.”

“Do you really want to be so heartless?” The lady’s face was ashen. Zhang Ding didn’t agree to her request, obviously planning to eradicate the root cause.

“Lady.” Zhang Ding’s voice turned cold. “If you cooperate obediently, I can leave you with a whole corpse. But if you refuse… Hehe, it’s a shame to say, but I have admired you for a long time. Unfortunately, I couldn’t get close to you in the past. But before you die, I think I can fulfill this wish of mine.！”

Inside the carriage, the lady’s delicate body trembled and her fists clenched tightly, her knuckles turning white.

She could imagine what kind of end she would have if Zhang Ding wanted to do evil to her.

“You heartless bastard！” Cuier couldn’t help but curse angrily.

Zhang Ding sneered and said, “Cuier, I hope you can still curse when you are stripped naked later.”

One of the few remaining warriors laughed maniacally and said lewdly, “Cuier, your big brother will love you later.”

Cuier’s face turned pale and she shrank back behind Yang Kai.

In the carriage room, the three women were all trembling, causing the carriage room to shake continuously.

“Madam, I’ll give you ten breaths of time. Get out of the carriage by yourself and I’ll give you a quick death and bury you well.” Zhang Ding issued his final ultimatum.

The madam closed her eyes and two lines of clear tears flowed out. She held her daughter’s hand and her face was filled with despair.

After a while, she made up her mind, opened her eyes, and smiled sadly at her daughter, with a resolute look in her eyes.

Rather than being humiliated, it’s better to have a quick death.

Just as she was about to get up, she was pushed back by Yang Kai, who slowly shook his head at her.

Ten breaths of time passed quickly.

Zhang Ding’s impatient voice sounded： “It seems that Madam is going to give me this opportunity. In that case, I won’t be polite！”

After saying that, Zhang Ding reached out and lifted the carriage curtain, and was about to step inside.

But before his foot could land, a pitch-black, filthy face came into his view. This person grinned at him, Youdaoplaceholder0 two rows of white fangs.

Little beggar！ This face. It was clearly the face of the little beggar he had brought over a few days ago.

Zhang Ding was was shocked. His mind was completely focused on the madam and he had no idea at all that there was someone else in the carriage. After the great shock came great anger. To think that he, a dignified Zhen Yuan Jing expert, had been scared by a beggar. It was truly a great loss of face.

Without thinking much, Zhang Ding reached out and grabbed at Yang Kai, wanting to throw him out.

Yang Kai neither dodged nor evaded. His fists, which seemed light and without any strength, were quickly punched out. In the blink of an eye, he had punched Zhang Ding four or five times in the chest.

What a fast speed! Zhang Ding was astonished again, but then immediately sneered: “Courting death!”

He didn’t feel much destructive power from this little beggar’s fists and just thought that the other party was punching randomly. He reached out and lifted Yang Kai and threw him out, angrily shouting： “Kill him！”

Several of Zhang Ding’s subordinates heard the order and moved. Swords and sabers slashed down towards Yang Kai.

Little beggar！” Cui’er exclaimed in surprise. She never expected that the seemingly calm Yang Kai was actually just a fake. With just one exchange, he had been dealt with by Zhang Ding.

Before the voice even fell, Zhang Ding’s complexion suddenly became extremely wonderful. The half of his body that had reached into the carriage stopped in place, his face flushed, and his eyeballs bulged out. He looked extremely terrifying.

The next moment, accompanied by a loud explosion, a blood flower burst out on Zhang Ding’s chest, and the violent and scorching Yuan Qi suddenly surged within his body.

Zhang Ding was so frightened that his soul almost flew out and his courage was shattered. Only then did he realize that there was a great deal of mystery in the few punches that the little beggar had landed on him just now.

He hastily circulated the True Yuan in his body to suppress the throbbing in his chest.

Boom boom boom… A series of sounds rang out, and Zhang Ding’s entire chest became bloody and blurred. With a miserable scream, he retreated from the carriage.

As expected of a True Yuan Realm expert, the powerful defense of the True Yuan in his body was simply not something that ordinary people could compare to. Yang Kai had unleashed four or five Blazing Sun Bursts in quick succession, and they were the Blazing Sun Bursts after he had gained some insights. There was no trace of his attacks, but he still only managed to severely wound Zhang Ding and not take his life.

The blood and minced meat that spurted out from Zhang Ding’s chest splashed all over the three women’s heads and faces. When Zhang Ding retreated, they also let out screams.

At the same time, Zhang Ding’s subordinates also added their swords and sabers to Yang Kai, but everyone only saw Yang Kai’s figure become illusory for a moment and then suddenly disappear. All the attacks missed.

The footwork that had been comprehended for over a month finally came in handy at a critical moment.

The Earth Demon, wrapped around the Soul-Breaking Cone, let out a shrill and strange laugh as it transformed into a mass of black gas, disturbing people’s minds and appalling the ears. It danced around those warriors, causing them to be in a flurry of confusion.

“What kind of ghost thing is this？” someone’s complexion changed drastically. Just as he finished shouting, Yang Kai’s figure flickered and suddenly appeared behind him. He threw a fierce punch, hitting him squarely in the back.

This person’s strength was not high. When the hidden energy of the Blazing Sun Blast entered his body, he simply couldn’t resolve and resist it like Zhang Ding. The scorching vitality surged, and his complexion instantly turned red.

Taking the opportunity, the Earth Demon carried the Soul-Breaking Cone and drilled into his body. When it came out again, this person’s body exploded with a loud bang and turned into a puff of blood mist.

The shrill and strange laugh became even more creepy. The Earth Demon was originally an old demon of ten thousand years. Although its soul power had now dropped sharply, there was still a power that made people’s hearts palpitate and panic hidden in its laughter.

Yang Kai coordinated with it and was almost invincible.

Before a set of footwork was even completed, several of Zhang Ding’s subordinates had already been wiped out, all exploding into pieces of flesh and broken limbs.

It was not until this moment that Zhang Ding had just managed to resolve Yang Kai’s True Yang energy. He stared at Yang Kai with a hideous and crazy expression, roaring in disbelief: “Little beggar, so you have been playing possum all along!”

The beggar who was originally regarded by him as just an ordinary person had now become the greatest obstacle to his plan. How could Zhang Ding remain calm？ What’s more, he had just suffered a great loss at Yang Kai’s hands unprepared. At this moment, his eyes were bloodshot, and his expression looking at Yang Kai was almost cannibalistic.

Yang Kai, covered in blood, stood there quietly looking at him and said faintly, “How much combat power do you still have left？”

If Zhang Ding was at his full strength, Yang Kai estimated that unless he used the Star Mark, he would not be his opponent at all. However, although the Star Mark move was extremely powerful, the time to gather strength was too long and it was fundamentally not suitable for a life-and-death battle in the blink of an eye.

But at the moment, Zhang Ding was not at his peak. First, he had a great battle with Old Wu and was seriously injured. Later, he was attacked by himself and his chest was bloody and fuzzy. How much of his strength was left was hard to say.

Yang Kai was not afraid of him！

Even if there is only 20% left, it is enough to kill you! Zhang Ding roared, the long sword in his hand was swaying with flowing light, and he launched his approach to Yang Kai, stabbing out several swords in a row vowing to kill Yang Kai under the sword.

Before his sword move was fully unfolded, the Earth Demon wrapped in the Soul-Breaking Cone fought with him. The strange laughter of Jie Jie continued. Under the heavy injury, Zhang Ding was actually unable to break through the blockade of the Earth Demon. He couldn’t help but cry out strangely, “What kind of secret treasure is this！”

He was also a person with rich combat experience and profound knowledge, but he had never seen such a strange secret treasure like the Soul-Breaking Cone. It didn’t need to be driven by anyone and could attack and parry on its own. Moreover, there was a terrifying laughter coming from inside, as if it had become spiritual.

It was really strange！

“A secret treasure that will take your life！” Yang Kai’s voice suddenly came from behind him. Zhang Ding’s hairs stood on end. He clearly saw that Yang Kai was standing not far away from him. How could he suddenly come behind him？

When he looked closely again, the little beggar in the front of him became blurred and was actually just a shadow.

In a hurry, he drew his sword and stabbed backward, but it landed in the air.

Yang Kai had already used his footwork to flash to his left side and without hesitation punched out. Zhang Ding was caught off guard and let out a shrill scream. There was a cracking sound from his entire arm, and it instantly hung down.

This punch shattered his scapula.

Moreover, the Yuan Qi that invaded his body was extremely pure and was not something that qi-moving Realm martial artist could at all possess. This point especially shocked Zhang Ding.

Although the number of times he had dual cultivated with Su Yan was very few, the Harmony Skill had a significant effect on the purity of Yuan Qi. The purity of Yuan Qi in Yang Kai’s body far exceeded his current realm, and all of this was the credit of the Harmony Skill.

The Earth Demon took the opportunity to rush up, and the Soul-Breaking Cone collided with his long sword, making a tinkling sound.

One master and one servant, their two swords combined, perfectly without any flaws. It made Zhang Ding unable to attend to both ends. After only fighting for less than half a cup of tea, his figure was staggering and he was covered in blood.

His mind was greatly shocked. How could Zhang Ding have the intention to fight again？ If he didn’t run away, he felt that he was going to die here. But Yang Kai and the Earth Demon simply wouldn’t give him a chance to escape. One in front and one behind, completely blocking his retreat.

Another Blazing Sun Blast was launched. Zhang Ding vomited a mouthful of blood, his mind was scattered, and the Earth Demon seized the opportunity and rushed into his body wrapped in the Soul-Breaking Cone.

Zhang Ding’s expression became dazed in an instant, his eyes gradually lost their charm, and then he fell to the ground.

A moment later, the Earth Demon reappeared. Accompanied by wild laughter and chewing sounds, it turned into black gas and disappeared at Yang Kai’s fingertip.

In this battle, the Earth Demon devoured several souls. It was a great supplement！

Standing there, panting heavily, Yang Kai felt a surge of weakness.

This time, he didn’t use the Unyielding Pride because the battle with Zhang Ding didn’t bring him any pressure or crisis.

But Yang Kai could sense that his strength was still too low！

If Zhang Ding hadn’t been injured originally, if he hadn’t succeeded in the sneak attack, if there hadn’t been Yang Liquid stored in the dantian, how could he have possibly fought such a master head-on？

Just to cast the Flame Explosion only three moves would be enough to drain all the Yuan Qi in the meridians. Any martial artist in the Qidong Realm here would probably have become a corpse.

And as for himself, he had bombarded Zhang Ding with almost ten moves of the Yanyang explosion before joining forces with the Earth Demon to kill him hardships involved were indescribable to outsiders.

After calming down for a long time, Yang Kai slowly walked towards the third carriage.

As the sound of footsteps approached, the three women in the carriage were obviously nervous. Cui’er’s trembling voice came out： “Little beggar…？”

“Mm.” Yang Kai responded weakly.

The carriage curtain was lifted, and Cui’er’s panicked and pale face was revealed. Behind her, the madam and the young lady also looked at Yang Kai nervously.

“Where are they？” Cui’er looked around.

“Dead.”

Cui’er immediately covered her mouth and looked at Yang Kai in disbelief. The madam and the young lady also couldn’t help but let out a sigh of relief.

Originally thinking that they were doomed, but unexpectedly surviving a desperate situation. This kind of drop from escaping death made people almost feel weak all over.

Once they relaxed, the three women in the carriage all felt their bodies a little soft.

“You stay put, I’ll go and see if there are any survivors.” Yang Kai instructed and turned around to check over by the campfire.
