Sword drawn from the constellations, poison as its edge.

Chapter 63 Crane in the Clouds

Jiang Mingzhe ignored Situ Xuan and walked away, secretly relieved.

He did indeed have the idea of ​​slaughtering everyone just now.

The benefits of Langhuan Paradise have not yet been fully explored; how can we allow others to tamper with it?

But seeing a large number of people collapse from poisoning, they hesitated again.

For a modern person who grew up in peaceful times, suddenly being asked to kill dozens or hundreds of people on a large scale is an extremely difficult test.

Moreover, most of the people here are complete strangers to him, with whom he has no grudges or enemies.

Now that's good, saving lives is the priority, so I don't have to deal with the inner turmoil anymore.

After all, Azi was chasing after Zhong Ling, and Zhong Ling seemed to be in danger. What about Azi?
Jiang Mingzhe moved with incredible speed, rushing towards the direction from which the sound came.

Then they heard Zhong Ling's cries drifting from afar: "You bad person! I don't know you, I didn't do anything to you, why did you bring me here!"

A harsh, high-pitched voice rang out: "Hehehe, why didn't you provoke me? Your parents gave you this look, so you must have provoked me... No! It was your mother who gave you this look, hehehe. If you look even slightly like your father, I'll consider you my son if I even glance at you."

He added, "However, while you are good-looking, you are not charming enough and are not perfect. You are not as good as your mother. In fact, Master Yun originally wanted to abduct your mother, but your ugly father only wanted his wife and not his daughter, so he had no choice but to go along with the host and try the one that the host didn't want."

Zhong Ling cried even more miserably: "You're talking nonsense! How could my father not want me? You ran away too fast. If you don't believe me, take me back and see if my father still wants me."

The unpleasant voice laughed loudly: "Little beauty, are you trying to provoke me? Hehe, it's not that I'm afraid to go, it's just that the boss summoned us to meet on the main peak of Wuliang Mountain, and I don't have time to do anything else for the time being. You don't need to rush, when the baby in your belly is big enough, your mother-in-law will naturally go to visit, hehe."

Jiang Mingzhe frowned more and more as he listened. The other party's face clearly showed that he was a lecherous glutton, but his lightness skill was really high. Jiang Mingzhe had already used the Lingbo Weibu to the extreme, but he still couldn't see the other party's figure.

Fortunately, the man kept talking, so we didn't lose him. The route continued upwards, and we soon reached the summit.

Zhong Ling cried out, "What nonsense are you talking about? I'm not married, so how could I have a baby? Father, Mother, come and save me!"

They stopped!
Upon hearing Zhong Ling's voice stop moving, Jiang Mingzhe immediately slowed his pace, landing silently like a nimble cat, and quietly hid behind a large tree.

Then that unpleasant voice cried out, "Huh? Eldest sister, second sister, third sister, none of them are here?"

Eldest sister, second sister, third sister?

Jiang Mingzhe's heart stirred. With these companions, as well as his amazing lightness skills and despicable character, this person could be anyone but Yun Zhonghe, the fourth-ranked of the Four Evils, known as "the most vicious and wicked".
He cautiously peeked out and saw a tall, thin, ugly man standing in the open space at the summit, holding Zhong Ling in one hand as if she were a kitten.

Yun Zhonghe complained a few times, then a lewd smile suddenly appeared on his ugly face: "It's good that they didn't come. They're just sitting around anyway, so let's use the sky as our blanket, the earth as our bed, and the top of Wuliang Mountain as our bridal chamber. You, little girl, will be our bride. Hahaha, let's put a baby in your clothes first!"

At this moment, Duan Yu stiffened his neck, as if he was about to shout, but Jiang Mingzhe, knowing his kind heart, was prepared and quickly covered his mouth.

Duan Yu thought he was going to stand by and watch, his eyes filled with anxiety. Jiang Mingzhe whispered in his ear, "This person's lightness skill is extremely high. If you want to save people, you must attract his attention and buy me a chance. However, this is extremely dangerous. Your own life is also important. You should think it over carefully!"

Duan Yu nodded without hesitation and quickly wrote on Jiang Mingzhe's back: Where righteousness lies, I will go even if there are thousands of people against me!
Jiang Mingzhe gently put him down, thinking that although Duan Yu didn't know martial arts, he was extremely brave and chivalrous. Apart from his later dark history of being a simp, he was indeed a rare good man. However, on second thought, women in this era were not comparable to those of later generations. Being devoted to someone didn't necessarily go unrewarded, and there were many who could get everything they wanted by being a simp. So, there was no need to underestimate him because of this.

Then Yun Zhonghe cackled strangely, "Little girl, don't be afraid. It will only hurt for a short while, and then you'll feel better."

After saying that, he tried to tear off Zhong Ling's clothes. Zhong Ling was so frightened that she screamed and desperately covered her collar.

However, her martial arts skills and strength were far inferior to her opponent's. Yun Zhonghe forcibly pried her hands apart and tore off a sleeve, revealing a fair and slender arm.

Zhong Ling was so frightened she almost fainted. Tears streamed down her face as she pleaded, "Please, let me go, please..."

Its almost broken appearance was truly pitiful.

Duan Yu was furious and was about to rush out and shout at him when he suddenly thought: No! I need to attract this man's attention for my brother. The more attention he pays to me, the better. If I run away like this, he will immediately see that I don't know martial arts. How can he pay attention to me then?
Forcibly suppressing his eagerness to save people, he slowly walked out from behind the tree with his hands behind his back, and said unhurriedly, "Hehe, you big bamboo pole are quite audacious, doing bad things all the way to our Dali Kingdom. I followed you all the way, thinking that Heaven has a benevolent heart, and if you had a change of heart, I would let you go. Unfortunately, you still sought your own death in the end."

As soon as he laughed, Yun Zhonghe was startled and looked over. He saw that Duan Yu's clothes were tattered, but his temperament and demeanor were extraordinary, as if he were a learned scholar. He did not dare to underestimate him. When he heard that Duan Yu had followed him all the way, he was even more secretly alarmed.

He quickly pressed Zhong Ling's Jianyu and Jianliao acupoints, threw her behind him, and looked coldly at Duan Yu, his tone ferocious: "An honest man doesn't do things in secret. I am Yun Zhonghe, the 'vicious and wicked' one. Who are you, kid, to dare to interfere in the affairs of the Four Evils of the World?"

Duan Yu recalled Jiang Mingzhe's expressions and attitudes towards the people of Lingjiu Palace, and imitated them, arrogantly saying, "The Four Evils? Heh, I wonder if the four words 'Duan Family of Tiannan' are enough to qualify you to interfere?"

Yun Zhonghe's pupils contracted, and he said in a deep voice, "You are a member of the Dali Duan family! Boy, don't exaggerate. Tell me your name?"

When Duan Yu ran away from home, he refused to mention his origins. However, when Jiang Mingzhe introduced himself as "Duan Clan's retainer Long Aotian," he realized how useful his family name was. Now that he had introduced himself, the other party was indeed much more cautious.

He was secretly delighted and said loudly, "Alright, I am Duan Yu, known in the martial arts world as the God... this God Finger is invincible, Yun Zhonghe, come and experience it!"

Having said that, he raised his right hand, with his index finger hanging down, which was the starting posture of the One-Finger Divine Skill.

He refused to learn martial arts from a young age, which worried his father Duan Zhengchun and uncle Duan Zhengming to no end. They tried countless ways to coax him to learn. The two of them had used the One Finger Divine Skill in front of Duan Yu countless times. Even if Duan Yu was not paying attention, he had already become familiar with the posture. Now he imitated it, and judging from the posture alone, there was not a single mistake.

This Finger Divine Skill was also a specialty of Duan Yanqing, the leader of Yun Zhonghe. Yun Zhonghe naturally recognized it and knew that this finger technique was extremely powerful. Seeing that Duan Yu could use it, he became even more vigilant.

He squinted and pondered: "In this generation of the Dali Duan family, apart from my eldest son, it's just the two brothers who hold power. Judging from this kid's age, he must be one of their sons. He actually claims to be invincible with the Divine Finger. Doesn't that 'invincible' title overshadow his father's generation? Ah, it seems this kid is probably an unparalleled genius of the Duan family, having cultivated the One-Finger Divine Skill to an extremely high level at such a young age!"
This man's martial arts skills were not extremely high, yet he had managed to commit all sorts of evil deeds and run rampant until now, all thanks to his cautiousness. At this moment, he was intimidated by Duan Yu's reputation for invincible divine finger and dared not step forward. However, fearing that he would show his weakness, he coldly laughed and said, "Hehe, what kind of bullshit divine finger is this? If you have the guts, then come and point a finger at me."

He made up his mind that if the other party unleashed a powerful attack, he would immediately flee. At worst, he would abandon the girl and try to catch her mother.

Yun Zhonghe remained motionless, and Duan Yu dared not move either.

His One-Finger Divine Skill was just for show; any movement would expose his weakness. Yet, fearing his opponent would see through it, he coldly laughed, "Fine, when you meet the King of Hell after you die, remember to tell him you died under my Duan family's One-Finger Divine Skill!"

The two exchanged cold laughs, and the situation reached a stalemate.
