Lady, let me explain.

Chapter 7 Killing

Lin Yi glanced coldly at the Yellow River Gang.

Of course he knew what Sha Tongtian was thinking. The Yellow River Gang had only retreated temporarily.

After the fight just now, Sha Tongtian is old and weak, and his strength is not as good as before. If Lin Yi fights him alone, he still has a chance of winning.

But the Yellow River Gang is large in number and powerful in strength. If we attack them all at once, we can only run for our lives.

It would be better to take advantage of Murong Fu's momentum tonight and kill Sha Tongtian. The Yellow River Gang will be defeated.

Murong Fu did not expect the current situation.

He is a martial arts expert, and has mastered martial arts from various schools. When he saw the two fighting just now, he knew that Sha Tongtian was much stronger than Lin Yi.

Now that he has come forward to persuade the Yellow River Gang to retreat, Lin Yi does not seize this chance to survive, but instead wants to duel with Sha Tongtian... This is puzzling.

Murong Fu glanced at Lin Yi and thought, "Could it be that this brat, young and impetuous, repelled Sha Tongtian upon seeing me, thus damaging the reputation of his Huashan Sect?"

But it was Lin Yi who proposed the duel, so of course he couldn't say anything.

Murong Fu looked at Sha Tongtian: "Master Sha, what do you think?"

"How could I be afraid of him?" Sha Tongtian shouted, "This kid is asking for his own death. I'll just chop off his head and offer it as a sacrifice to my fellow apprentice!"

"Okay, since you two have made up your minds, I won't say any more." Murong Fu looked around at everyone in the courtyard: "If anyone dares to interfere later, don't blame me, Murong Fu, for being ruthless!"

After hearing this, Lin Yi didn't bother to talk nonsense and just thrust his sword forward.

"Come on!" Sha Tongtian shouted and slammed the iron paddle.

There was a constant sound of "clang clang" in the yard. The iron oars were so powerful that Lin Yi did not dare to confront them head-on. He used his body skills to fight with them.

After a while, the two fought for more than ten moves. Sha Tongtian was angry and focused his moves on Lin Yi's face. For a while, Lin Yi was suppressed and in danger several times.

Yue Lingshan watched intently. Every time the iron paddle was about to hit Lin Yi, she was terrified and her little face turned pale with fear.

Murong Fu, who was standing by, watched for a moment and finally resolved his doubts and understood Lin Yi's plan.

Lin Yi is preparing for a protracted battle to wear down Sha Tongtian!

Sha Tongtian is not good at internal strength, and now he is old and weak, how can he withstand a young man like him?
Sha Tongtian's advantage now is just an appearance. It seems that each move is more ruthless than the last, but it is all because he cannot hit Lin Yi and he starts to get anxious.

On the other hand, Lin Yi looked embarrassed and was hit by two palms, but he was young and strong, and his speed was not affected.

As one gains strength while the other loses, the outcome is self-evident.

Lin Yi had been delaying for a long time, and as expected, he saw Sha Tong was panting and his speed of waving the oar had slowed down.

He seized the opportunity, jumped up, and with his left hand holding the sword formula, slashed at Sha Tongtian's back. Sha Tongtian quickly turned the iron paddle and used the "Su Qin Carrying a Sword" move to block the sword's path.

But he never expected that Lin Yi turned his arm, and the long sword miraculously avoided the oar and hit his back!

The Yellow River Gang members exclaimed, "Master!"

But seeing Murong Fu standing aside, no one dared to step forward.

Sha Tongtian consumed too much energy and was injured in the chest and back, and the situation immediately reversed!

Seeing the iron paddle coming straight at him, Lin Yi used his body skills to jump up, stepped on the paddle head to gain leverage and did a somersault, then swept his left hand across Sha Tongtian's shoulder.

Sha Tongtian only felt a tingling sensation on his "jianjing acupoint", and his right arm had no strength at all, so the iron oar fell out of his hand and hit the ground.

Murong Fu's eyes lit up, knowing that the winner had been decided. Just as he was about to cheer "Good!", he saw Lin Yi turn around and draw his sword, striking the enemy in the throat with one blow!
Blood gushed out of Sha Tongtian's neck like a fountain. He fell to the ground with a thud and became motionless after struggling for a moment.

The scene was silent for a moment, and suddenly someone shouted: "Revenge for the master!"

More than a dozen gang members with knives rushed up. Lin Yi retreated and stabbed, killing two of them instantly. Yue Lingshan quickly jumped down and swung her sword to chop down two more people.

After Sha Tongtian's death, the Yellow River Gang had already lost its backbone. Seeing the two men's fierce killing, they were defeated instantly. They didn't even care about the injured and Sha Tongtian's body, and fled the yard and disappeared.

Lin Yi was panting and shaking. He was exhausted after the fierce fight. Yue Lingshan quickly hugged him.

"Brother Ping, are you okay?"

Lin Yi shook his head, and heard Murong Fu beside him suddenly say, "But you are Lin Pingzhi, the Huashan Sect's top disciple and former head of the Fuwei Escort Agency?" Lin Yi bowed and said, "That's me."

Murong Fu smiled: "The Lin family's sword technique to ward off evil is indeed well-deserved. Brother Lin, goodbye."

After saying that, Murong Fu used his lightness skills to fly onto the courtyard wall and disappeared into the night.

Although he coveted the Sword of Exorcism, asking about it at this time would be suspected of taking advantage of the situation. Lin Yi was obviously a man of strong character, and it would definitely not work if he forced him.

Since I have already done Lin Yi a favor, I might as well ask to borrow the Exorcism Sword Technique next time we meet.

Lin Yi looked at the direction where Murong Fu disappeared. It was not surprising. There was the Huanshi Water Pavilion in Yanziwu and the Langhuan Jade Cave in Mantuo Villa.

I'm afraid Murong Fu is more familiar with Huashan swordsmanship than ordinary Huashan disciples, so he can naturally see the clues.

"Brother Ping," Yue Lingshan was about to ask with full of doubts, when suddenly the door beside her opened and Daiyu and others came out. When they saw several corpses on the ground, they almost screamed.

"Young Master Lin, are you all okay?"

The bandits had come so fiercely just now that the two weak women couldn't help and could only stay out of trouble.

"Pack your things quickly and leave now!" Lin Yi said.

Although the Yellow River Gang has retreated, there might be a second wave of pursuers coming, so the best strategy is to run away.

Daiyu and the others obeyed the order and hurried back to the house to pack their things. Yue Lingshan helped to load them onto the carriage.

Just now, the only remaining guard of the Lin family was killed. Jia Yucun was originally held captive by the bandits, but was released after Murong Fu came. He escaped when Lin Yi and Sha Tongtian were dueling.

So at this time only Daiyu and a maid Xueyan were left.

The four of them boarded the carriage. Lin Yi leaned against the inside to rest, leaving Yue Lingshan to drive. Although it was night, the moonlight was bright and the road was clear.

[Character: Sha Tongtian]

[Level: D]

[Destiny Deviation: 100%]

[Gain 10 points...]

Lin Yi looked at the martial arts item on his personal panel.

[Huashan Sword Technique: 49]

【Five Mountains Sword Technique: 27】

[Evil-Repelling Sword Technique: 25]

"Add these 10 points and it's 35 points, which is still 15 points away from my goal."

"It's all thanks to Murong Fu!"

Lin Yi thought to himself, "Although I look down on Murong Fu, this fool who dreamed of restoring his country but ended up in complete failure, he did help me a lot tonight. I must repay him in the future."

After tonight's battle, Lin Yi felt that he was still too weak.

If Murong Fu had not happened to be there, he would have had no choice but to run for his life, and he might not even have been able to escape.

Lin Yi is eager to improve his strength!

In these troubled times, military force is the most effective.

"There are so many masters in this world. I can't stop at just one book on the Sword of Exorcism..."

The biggest feature of the Exorcism Sword Technique is its quick effect, but its upper limit is still not as good as top martial arts such as the Dugu Nine Swords, Nine Yin and Nine Yang, and the Sunflower Manual.

"Guangmingding happens to be on Kunlun Mountain—Nine Yang Manual!"

Lin Yi made up his mind and began to think...
