Feng Yin was very clear.

The four bronze medal killers of Jun Tian Hand were in hot pursuit, attacking fiercely; Ma Sanqian fled, though in a狼狈 state, he always managed to avoid danger, which proved what?

It was clear that he still had strength to spare, with hidden strength reserved to deal with the bronze medal killers who would appear later.

This was the experience of an old hand in the world.

No matter when, always keep a trump card for yourself.

The moment this trump card appears, it's the time for a desperate fight in a dire situation.

At such a time, Feng Yin would naturally not make a move.

He just followed along, neither too fast nor too slow, neither too close nor too far.

He could see the battle clearly without being left behind.

The night was dark all around.

Feng Yin believed that the idea of holding back was not just his.

So he was even more cautious, making no sound at all, trying to stay as hidden as possible.

The pursuit and battle continued, and in a blink, they had gone several hundred feet, getting closer and closer to the city gate.

Beyond the city gate was the open wilderness!

Seeing the dragon about to return to the sea, the tiger about to enter the deep mountains.

With a path to survival ahead, Ma Sanqian did not relax but became even more tense and vigilant.

Beyond the city wall, the sky was vast and the land was wide. He could choose any direction, burn his essence and blood to escape, and he would have a good chance of survival.

But the most critical part was this stretch of road.

He had to truly complete this life-or-death journey to truly escape!

With such a long bounty, those watching him were certainly not just these four bronze medal killers; there were surely more bronze medal killers lurking, waiting for the right moment to strike.

All old hands knew that the time before dawn was the darkest.

Ma Sanqian couldn't help but regret that he had been too greedy.

If it weren't for tidying up his family's wealth and converting everything into cash, he would probably already be in the wilderness...

"Ma Sanqian! You actually still want to leave the city?!"

Just as he was thinking, a loud shout rang out.

Two bright lights appeared in the night sky ahead, one on the left and one on the right, forming a pincer attack.

Behind him, in the dark night, a flashing light shot up into the sky, the light of Jun Tian Jian.

This was the killers of Jun Tian Hand revealing their identities.

The city gate guards, who had been on high alert, immediately relaxed when they saw the flashing light.

"Go back to sleep. This is Jun Tian Hand on a mission, it's a matter of the martial world, not our concern."

The soldiers responded in unison and returned without a word.

Ma Sanqian almost wanted to curse. When did the killer's identity badge become a pass for the authorities?

Do you really think you'll die if you intervene?

Seeing the killers, you just go back to sleep? Are you still the guards of the Great Qin?

What about the legendary discipline of the Great Qin army?!

The two killers who had been secretly following in the dark were clearly worried that if Ma Sanqian escaped the city, he would be even harder to deal with, and the situation might even turn against them. Otherwise, they wouldn't have made a move at this moment.

Otherwise, those who could advance to bronze medal killers wouldn't lack patience. They had been tailing him for a long time, so why would they care about this bit of time?

At this moment, the two knives worked together, one on the left and one on the right, one above and one below, instantly illuminating the entire night sky.

Although the two killers had never cooperated before and this attack was spontaneous, they showed an extraordinary and natural默契.

Together with the four bronze medal killers chasing from behind, they formed a coordinated attack, instantly increasing their power.

Six killers, working in perfect harmony, attacked with all their might.

Ma Sanqian tried his best to dodge, but the dense dark weapons from behind almost covered all his escape routes.

With a series of clanging sounds, the weapons deflected the various dark weapons while he continuously leaped, bent, twisted, leaned back, moved sideways, and retreated... doing his best to avoid the combined attacks of the two knives.

"Ah!"

A scream of pain.

With a hiss, a knife with a tricky angle slashed straight down on Ma Sanqian's right thigh, blood spurted out, and the smell of blood spread.

"Good hit!"

The five killers were all invigorated.

"Damn!"

Ma Sanqian screamed in pain, instinctively pulling his right leg hard and lashing back with a whip. The killer, knowing the principle of knowing when to stop, immediately retreated the moment he succeeded, the blade gleaming with fresh blood, which splattered in the night sky, giving off a sinister bloody glow.

This was the first time the bronze medal killers had drawn blood in their pursuit.

"Think you can escape after injuring me?!"

Ma Sanqian laughed savagely, and a long rope suddenly shot out from his iron whip, like a snake, flashing and circling, and at the last moment, it wrapped around the killer's neck.

This killer was also a resolute person, immediately discarding his knife and grabbing the rope with both hands.

This response was flawless. With both hands gripping the rope, even if true qi was transmitted and controlled, the double restriction would make it difficult to apply force at the end, preventing the rope from choking and killing.

But the moment the rope wrapped around his neck, the killer screamed in pain, his face turning pale.

A circle of pain around his neck, the rope was covered with fine needles, which instantly pierced his skin, causing a sudden sensation of numbness and itching.

His vision immediately went dark.

"It's poisonous!"

This person's heart sank, his eyes filled with despair.

With both his neck and hands poisoned, in such a battle, there was virtually no hope.

His eyes turned fierce.

He grabbed the rope with all his might, pulling desperately, even as the fine needles on the rope pierced deeper into his hands, he did not let go.

"Die with me!"

"Kill him! Kill him!"

The killer shouted, pulling with all his strength, his eyes bulging, restraining Ma Sanqian, who was already in mid-air with no support, pulling him towards his position.

At this moment, he had only one thought.

If I die, you won't live either!

Ma Sanqian revealed his trump card, thinking he could instantly kill his opponent, with the rope around the neck, poison entering the body, and a severed head, it should have been easy. But the Jun Tian Hand killer was so tenacious, even in a desperate situation, he remained calm and interfered with Ma Sanqian.

Enraged, Ma Sanqian shook his hand, the rope separated from the iron whip, and he struck the bronze medal killer's head with the iron whip, causing his brain to splatter, and he died instantly.

But this delay gave the other killers the chance to close in, and the five bronze medal killers attacked together!

Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh...

In an instant, blood flashed repeatedly, as Ma Sanqian was hit repeatedly, wounds appearing all over his body, his long scream filled with despair.

He looked like a blood bag hanging in mid-air, blood spattering out.

He tried his best to fight, hoping to break through and carve out a bloody path, but the five killers were silent, each one attacking with lethal intent.

They gave him no chance to escape.

"Kill!"

In a moment, Ma Sanqian revealed all his trump cards, his body like a hedgehog, continuously firing various bizarre dark weapons.

But the five killers, having learned from the death of their comrade, were clearly on guard.

The five killers, who had never met or cooperated before, now worked seamlessly, one restraining, one dodging, one restraining, one dodging, when one dodged the dark weapon, the other attacked fiercely to hold him back!

In such a flawless coordinated attack, the advantage and disadvantage became increasingly clear, and Ma Sanqian's situation became increasingly dire, his defeat and death seemed imminent.

Feng Yin was now hiding on the high city wall, watching the battle below intently, sighing inwardly.

If it's meant to be, it will be. This time, I came for nothing!

The current situation was clear, it was not his turn.

The six people currently fighting, the weakest of whom was about as strong as him.

Even if he joined the battle, the chance of him succeeding was less than ten percent, and he would also face the hostility and even the combined attack of the other bronze medal killers, which would be a loss...

Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly widened his eyes.

He saw Ma Sanqian suddenly roar, his blood qi bursting to an unprecedented level.

His eyes almost bulged out of their sockets, his face red as if it would explode, and a mouthful of dark red blood spurted out!

That was the essence blood, the true source blood!

The true desperate means.

Ma Sanqian was now almost certain that there were no other bronze medal killers lurking nearby.

Because at this moment, it was the best opportunity to join the battle and have a chance to kill him. Such an opportunity would not last, and any killer with sufficient skill and strength would not miss it!

Since no one appeared, it meant no one was there.

So... it was his turn!

After being beaten for so long, he could finally use his true life-saving means to turn the tide!

With that mouthful of essence blood, Ma Sanqian's strength instantly increased several times, and his steel whip swept all five weapons aside.

As the five staggered back, Ma Sanqian roared and leaped up, straight towards the city wall.

Blood spurted from his body like columns, and under the moonlight, he looked like a huge, blood-red hedgehog.

Ma Sanqian did not dare to stay long, because in this state, he looked invincible, but he only had one powerful strike.

For Ma Sanqian, if this strike could break through the encirclement, it would be the greatest success; although this strike could instantly kill at least two people, the power of this strike would also mean his certain death.

At this moment, escaping was the top priority!

The five bronze medal killers roared in unison, using all their strength to share the impact of the sudden attack, all spitting blood and retreating, their faces filled with shock.

They never expected Ma Sanqian to have such a trump card, so powerful.

They also knew that if that strike had focused on one or two people, it would have been an instant kill, with no chance of survival!

Ma Sanqian's current speed was incredibly fast, the power gained from burning his essence blood was far beyond normal.

If they tried to chase him, they would definitely not catch up, and they couldn't burn their own essence blood for this mission, could they?

That would be too much of a loss, they couldn't let their martial path be interrupted and make no progress just for Ma Sanqian.

Everyone understood this, and a sense of frustration suddenly welled up, but no one moved, just looking up.

They saw Ma Sanqian roar, forcefully rising seven or eight zhang, already above the city wall, and without stopping, he flew out.

"Almost there!"

All five had the same thought, never expecting to push their opponent to such a state and still let him escape.

But the next moment...

All five widened their eyes.

"Damn!"

This exclamation was spontaneous, without any thought, but it perfectly described their current feelings.

Because there was no other word that could so accurately describe their current mood.

Just as Ma Sanqian's body reached its highest point, just as he was about to land outside the city...

From the dark city wall, a bright light suddenly shot up into the sky, illuminating the night.

In the cold moonlight.

The knife light was icy and cold, yet had a hint of gentleness.
