Facing such an encirclement, shouldn't Qing Shu use the Tai Chi move 'Single Whip' to stand firm like a mountain, intimidating the enemy, and then use the 'Bowing to the Moon' move to skillfully block and retreat? Why would he charge in with a broadsword and a horse? What kind of fighting style is this?
Following his master's instructions, he planned to observe Song Qing Shu, but he certainly did not want Song Qing Shu to die here. How could he explain it to Zhang Sanfeng and Song Yuanqiao when he returned?
But the distance was still too great, and it was already too late to go and rescue him.
Yin Liting's eyes flashed with anger. If Song Qing Shu died here due to his negligence, he would kill all nine of them and then return to commit suicide to atone to Song Yuanqiao.
Seeing the three single-edged knives blocking the way, about to slash down on Song Qing Shu, the women of the Emei Sect all cried out in alarm.
Everyone could see that Song Qing Shu had no way to avoid the vicious slashes from three directions, and he was about to be killed on the spot.
Zhou Zhiruo, unable to resist, covered her cherry lips with her delicate hands and closed her beautiful eyes. She was kind-hearted and could not bear to see this young talent die at the hands of the three bandits, Yin Wu Fu.
Miejue shook her head slightly.
Even if it were her, she could only use the Emei Nine Yang Gong to protect herself and endure the three knives. But Song Qing Shu, even with Wudang internal skills, would certainly be seriously injured.
She, in his position, could not think of a way to resolve the situation.
Zhang Wuji, seeing Song Qing Shu in danger, felt a sense of relief, followed by shame: "Zhang Wuji, Zhang Wuji, how can you be so narrow-minded..."
But then, something that left everyone speechless happened.
The three cold, sharp single-edged knives, just as they were about to slash down on Song Qing Shu, he used some unknown technique, suddenly twisting in a strange way, and all three knives missed!
Zhou Zhiruo's beautiful eyes sparkled with disbelief, and she couldn't help but exclaim, "Well done!"
As soon as the words were out, she immediately regained her composure, realizing her indiscretion, and lowered her head, blushing, to steal a glance at Zhang Wuji.
Zhang Wuji's face turned pale, his body trembled, and his expression was somber.
Ding Minjun glared at Zhou Zhiruo, ready to mock her with her sharp tongue.
Zhou Zhiruo quickly smiled and said, "Master, I admire Brother Song Qing Shu's technique. Do you know what move it is? I want to broaden my horizons."
She hurried to explain, fearing that the nun would suspect her and that Zhang Wuji would misunderstand.
Miejue's eyes also sparkled, and after a long pause, she sighed, "You have stumped me. Even I cannot see what technique Song Shaoxiao used. I must ask Sixth Hero Yin for an explanation."
The women's gazes turned to Yin Liting.
Yin Liting also had a puzzled look on his face.
He really couldn't figure out what method Song Qing Shu used to avoid the inevitable slashes from the three bandits.
"This... Master... I..." Yin Liting hesitated.
As one of the Six Heroes of Wudang and Song Qing Shu's uncle, it was hard to admit he couldn't see the technique, but he truly didn't know what to say.
Miejue, assuming he was reluctant to reveal Wudang's secrets, said coldly, "I was too hasty, Sixth Hero Yin. You don't have to answer."
Li Furen, the last of the Emei Sect to watch, clenched her fists and her eyes sparkled with admiration.
"It's him! How is this possible?"
In the battlefield, the three bandits, Yin Wu Fu, missed their slashes and were almost ready to vomit blood.
It seemed as if the space-time light had refracted strangely on Song Qing Shu. They had clearly aimed at him, but the knives slashed through the air!
But Lin Qing seized this opportunity.
He was prepared, and the sharp dagger was silently placed in the path of Yin Wu Fu, using the momentum of the three bandits to cut a deep, bloody wound on Yin Wu Fu's thigh!
Yin Wu Fu let out a loud cry, clutching his thigh as blood gushed out from between his fingers, and he looked up with eyes full of rage.
"First move," Lin Qing said calmly.
Everyone's gaze toward Lin Qing changed.
Song Qing Shu of Wudang indeed had extraordinary skills!
Yin Wu Shou called out, "Brother, what now?"
Yin Wu Fu, enraged, said, "I'm fine! Chop this kid to pieces!"
The three bandits, their bloodlust aroused, roared and attacked Lin Qing again with all their might.
With the experience from the first move, Lin Qing was more confident. He glanced up without showing any emotion, already having a plan in mind, and a faint smile appeared on his lips.
"Come on, fools! Use your heads and lives to help me dig my first gold mine."
His target was still Yin Wu Fu.
Lin Qing's goal had changed!
He intended to fully utilize the escape tool given at the beginning of the plot to capture all three bandits, manipulating the plot to his advantage.
All three bandits must be left behind, not one spared!
Although the Ming Sect claimed to be composed of men of honor, Lin Qing did not dare to trust the ten-move vow, and he had to incapacitate Yin Wu Fu to prevent him from escaping!
The second encirclement was a perfect replica of the first move.
Lin Qing emerged unscathed and, taking advantage of the situation, stabbed Yin Wu Fu's other leg with a dagger.
He received a prompt.
"You used a sharp dagger to injure the left and right legs of the character Yin Wu Fu."
"You caused 7 and 8 points of damage, and a total of 16 points of bleeding effect."
"Yin Wu Fu's reflexes temporarily decreased by 4 points, and his speed decreased by 8 points."
"You can't escape!" Lin Qing said sternly, looking at the pale-faced Yin Wu Fu.
How could a shut-in injure a great bandit?
This was not surprising.
If you were in his place, you wouldn't be injured, focusing on attacking and stabbing, and you could do it too.
Yin Wu Fu's legs were bleeding profusely, and he could no longer stand, collapsing to one knee.
Yin Liting and Miejue still couldn't see Song Qing Shu's technique.
But the situation was clear.
Song Qing Shu of Wudang, fighting three at once, had severely injured Yin Wu Fu and was gradually winning.
The women of the Emei Sect watched with admiration, even Ding Minjun couldn't help but focus intently.
Zhou Zhiruo, however, looked at Zhang Wuji with a sweet gaze.
In the martial world, the strong are respected.
Song Qing Shu was not only handsome and of good character but also a direct descendant of the third generation of Wudang, and his martial arts were exceptional, making him a rare gem, even moving Ding Minjun.
But unfortunately, her heart was already filled with the image of Zhang Wuji by the Han River, leaving no room for others.
Zhang Wuji, however, did not notice Zhou Zhiruo's gaze, focusing intently on the battle below.
He had a feeling.
Growing up in hardship and wandering, his fortune had recently turned for the better. Since obtaining the Nine Yang Divine Skill, his luck had become extremely good!
In short, fortune was on his side!
Without even making a move, the Zhu family, who had wronged him, had suffered divine retribution!
He could foresee that he would achieve great things, dominating the martial world and building a great career!
But this Song Qing Shu would take everything from him.
This dangerous feeling of a rival made him restless, so much so that he didn't even notice Zhou Zhiruo's gentle gaze.
Lin Qing stepped closer to the three bandits, Yin Wu Fu.
Yin Wu Shou roared and pounced on Lin Qing, using the eagle claw technique personally taught by the White-Browed Eagle King, fiercely grabbing at Lin Qing.
If the knives couldn't hit, they would use grappling skills!
Lin Qing did not resist and was grabbed by him.
Yin Wu Shou was delighted.
He was naturally strong and had received personal training from the Eagle King. His eagle claw technique could shatter stone lions. This young Song Qing Shu, with good lightness skills, wouldn't have much internal strength, and his wrist would be crushed with one grab!
He laughed maniacally and unleashed his eagle claw technique!
"Fall for me!"
But a huge counterforce shot back, and Song Qing Shu remained calm, while his wrist was numbed by the shock.
Then, a piercing pain shot from his lower abdomen.
Yin Wu Shou looked down.
"Song Qing Shu" calmly pulled out the dagger, which had entered white and come out red.
Yin Wu Shou was severely injured, and his protective true qi could not stop the sharp dagger.
Lin Qing received a prompt.
"You used a sharp dagger to hit the vital point in the abdomen of the character Yin Wu Shou, causing double damage and a bleeding effect."
"You caused 16 points of melee damage and 8 points of bleeding damage."
Yin Wu Lu, seeing that both Yin Wu Fu and Yin Wu Shou were severely injured, roared and charged forward.
"Ah, truly loyal Ming Sect members," Lin Qing said with a faint smile.
This saved him a lot of trouble.
The 60-second invincibility time had passed halfway.
He already had two targets, Yin Wu Fu and Yin Wu Shou.
But this was not enough.
He needed to capture more targets.
This was a rare opportunity he had found after careful searching, and he could not miss it.
But life is unpredictable.
Yin Wu Lu's specialty was the flying and dodging lightness skill.
He was the most famous flying bandit among the three, able to walk on walls and roofs as if on flat ground.
Lin Qing finally met his match.
He was indeed invincible in front of attacks, but his speed was no advantage, and he was being toyed with by Yin Wu Lu.
Fortunately, his performance was already impressive enough.
Yin Liting raised an eyebrow and leaped down.
The observation of Song Qing Shu was sufficient.
Miejue let out a long whistle, using the Emei Nine Yang Gong, and ran swiftly toward Yan Heng and his group, whose faces had changed.
"Evil Ming Sect members, don't run!"
The women of the Emei Sect also jumped down the cliff and rushed toward the Ming Sect members.
The six members of the Hou Tu Flag stood far away, not participating in the battle. Seeing Yin Liting and the Emei Sect members approaching, they unfurled the Hou Tu Flag, which looked quite impressive. Yan Heng called out, "Yin brothers, you're done. Tuck your tails and run, I'll cover you."
In the Ming Sect, loyalty was highly valued. Although the three Yin brothers belonged to the Tian Ying Sect, they were still part of the same family. They might argue normally, but in critical moments, they would support each other.
Yin Wu Lu, angry, said, "The Hou Tu Flag is the slowest to escape. Yan, you go first. We three, life and death together, will not run alone."
The Hou Tu Flag could escape, but Yin Wu Lu could not!
Yin Wu Fu's legs were severely injured, and Yin Wu Shou's abdomen was wounded; they couldn't move!
Seeing the reinforcements from Wudang and Emei approaching, a ruthless look flashed in his eyes. He had to capture Song Qing Shu to cover the retreat of the two.
Yin Wu Lu let out a long whistle and pounced on Lin Qing.
Lin Qing's eyes sparkled.
He had found his opportunity.
Yin Wu Lu could not escape.
The moment he decided to attack Lin Qing with all his might, his fate was sealed.
Lin Qing, risking his life, took a hit from his knife and used the dagger to cut the artery in his thigh.
As Yin Wu Lu fell to the ground, the 60-second invincibility scroll used up its last second, disappearing like a soap bubble in the sunlight from Lin Qing's body!
