The Heavens: From Film and Mythology to Conquering Myriad Realms

Lu Yao narrowed his eyes as he looked at the four villains blocking his way.

In the original novel, Zhong Wanchou did indeed bring in the Four Evils to deal with Duan Zhengchun.

I never expected to run into him first.

"Kid, you're just unlucky to die at the hands of your Crocodile God grandpa."

Yue Laosan grinned, a sinister smile spreading across his face.

"Where did this red-haired monster come from, spouting such nonsense?"

Lu Yao looked at Yue Laosan, who had three tufts of red hair, and was somewhat speechless.

"Ugh! I'm so angry!"

Yue Laosan let out a strange roar, and the alligator snips in his hand snapped open, instantly snipping at Lu Yao's neck.

The alligator snips have sharp blades, like a giant pair of scissors. In Yue Laosan's hands, they are flexible and versatile, like two ferocious dragons.

Lu Yao slightly turned his body, easily dodging the alligator scissors. He bent his leg and kicked Yue Laosan in the waist with lightning speed.

"Ouch!"

Yue Laosan rolled on the ground to dissipate the force, then squatted down, crying out in pain from his waist.

"Hahaha, the third brother is in for a rough time now."

Yun Zhonghe, who was known in the martial arts world for his viciousness, crossed his arms and smirked when he saw Yue Laosan's miserable state.

"Third brother is no match for this man, fourth brother, you go and help him."

Duan Yanqing, observing coldly but with keen eyes, immediately realized that Yue Laosan was no match for Lu Yao, and sent Yun Zhonghe to help.

Yun Zhonghe was taken aback when he heard this. He really hadn't seen Yue Laosan's defeat, but he had always been afraid of Duan Yanqing and dared not disobey Duan Yanqing's wishes.

Yun Zhonghe possessed superb lightness skills, and in an instant, he charged towards Lu Yao wielding a pair of iron claws and a steel staff.

When Yue Laosan saw Yun Zhonghe come to his aid, his face turned somewhat grim, but he did not show off. He drew his crocodile tail whip from his waist and, together with Yun Zhonghe, swung it forward to kill.

Lu Yao's expression remained unchanged as he saw the two men attacking him.

"The Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms - Dragon Battles in the Wild!"

Lu Yao gave a soft shout in his heart, and his true energy erupted. The pale blue dragon swept towards Yue Laosan and Yun Zhonghe who were attacking.

"It's actually the Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms!"

Duan Yanqing's expression changed, and he stared fiercely at Lu Yao.

He had just been beaten up by Qiao Feng, so he naturally knew a lot about the Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms.

"This guy is actually from the Beggars' Sect, boss. Should we still deal with him?"

Ye Erniang's eyes flickered, she stopped teasing the child in her arms and looked at Duan Yanqing.

"Hmph! I may not be able to beat Qiao Feng, but can't I at least deal with this nobody?"

Duan Yanqing snorted coldly, preparing to launch a sneak attack on Lu Yao at any moment.

Meanwhile, Yue Laosan and Yun Zhonghe were blasted away by a single palm strike from the Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms.

However, Lu Yao turned his palm, and a huge suction force came out from his palm, pulling the two people who were flying in mid-air back.

Lu Yao grabbed one person with each hand and tightly gripped their necks.

"Beiming Divine Art!"

Lu Yao activated the method of absorbing true qi using the Northern Darkness Divine Art, and the two people in his hands immediately felt the true qi in their dantian flowing away wildly like a flood from a collapsed dam.

When the Beiming Divine Art absorbs a person's true energy, it paralyzes the meridians of the person being absorbed, rendering them unable to resist.

At this moment, Yue Laosan and Yun Zhonghe felt weak all over and were unable to mobilize their true energy. They could only let Lu Yao draw out their true energy.

"Ugh! Boss, help me!"

Yun Zhonghe struggled desperately, but he couldn't get rid of Lu Yao's merciless iron hand at all. He could only look to Duan Yanqing for help with a look of great fear on his face.

Seeing this, Duan Yanqing knew that Lu Yao was pretending to be weak while actually being strong. He became very cautious and threw his iron staff, which shot towards Lu Yao like a meteor.

"This kid is no ordinary person, let's all attack him together."

Duan Yanqing gave a soft shout and leaped towards Lu Yao, intending to rescue Yue Laosan and Yun Zhonghe first.

Although he was one of the other three of the Four Evils who were subdued by force, he was still quite useful to Lu Yao, and it was not advisable to let the other two die easily at Lu Yao's hands.

Ye Erniang frowned slightly, casually tossed the baby in her arms onto the ground, and with a flick of her wrist, a rectangular, thin blade appeared in her hand. She then charged toward Lu Yao alongside Duan Yanqing.

Seeing the iron staff coming at him, Lu Yao frowned and threw the two men over.

The two were only immobilized by the Northern Darkness True Qi, not lost their strength and consciousness. When they saw Lu Yao throw them to block their boss's iron staff, they were both terrified.

Yun Zhonghe quickly used his lightness skill to kick Yue Laosan towards the iron staff, and then used the force to fly to the other side.

"Yun Zhonghe! I'll fuck your grandma!"

Yue Laosan, who had been kicked, was dumbfounded. He watched as Yun Zhonghe actually used him to brace against the iron rod, and immediately started cursing.

Yue Laosan was not about to surrender easily. He quickly held the crocodile-mouth scissors in front of him and unleashed his true energy to protect himself.

"boom!"

With a loud bang, Yue Laosan was struck directly to the ground with a stick, shattering the stone bricks and creating a large crater.

As the dust settled, Yue Laosan was seen spitting out blood, his face deathly pale. The crocodile snout had been cut off and lay to the side, already noticeably bent.

"What a deep brotherhood! Are all you four villains this selfish and self-serving?"

Lu Yao chuckled and teased the group.

In just a short while, he absorbed most of their true energy. If Duan Yanqing hadn't intervened, the two would have been drained to death.

"Hmph! I didn't expect him to be such a master!"

Duan Yanqing snorted coldly, not bothering to waste any more words with Lu Yao. With a wave of his hand, the iron staff stuck in the ground was instantly sucked into his hand.

Although Duan Yanqing, wielding an iron staff, was lame, his movements were still swift. He leaped forward, swinging the iron staff with a powerful gust of wind towards Lu Yao's head.

Lu Yao moved, and his light blue true energy suddenly erupted, with several sword energies appearing and swirling around him.

The sword energy collided with the iron staff, producing a crisp sound, and Duan Yanqing was immediately thrown back by the force of the sword energy.

Under Lu Yao's control, the sword energy was instantly unleashed, hurtling towards Duan Yanqing with fierce speed.

"Oh no! Second Sister, help me!"

Duan Yanqing's expression changed instantly, and he immediately realized that Lu Yao's strength was unfathomable and that he was no match for him.

Ye Erniang's expression was also very solemn. She swung her thin blade and flew towards Lu Yao with a whistling sound.

Unfortunately, before the thin blade could reach Lu Yao, it was cut in two by a sword aura and fell to the ground.

Duan Yanqing was surrounded by several sword energies, and his iron staff was covered with sword marks. His situation was extremely precarious.

"One-Finger Divine Skill!"

Duan Yanqing immediately unleashed his hidden secret technique, his fingers pulsating with true energy, and several bursts of finger energy erupted.

Duan Yanqing, as the former crown prince of Dali, had already mastered the One-Finger Divine Skill to perfection.

Duan Yanqing quickly and painstakingly dissipated several sword energies, then retreated to Ye Erniang's side with a grim expression.

Seeing Lu Yao's ferocity, Ye Erniang dared not make a move and stood aside with Yun Zhonghe and the others.

"Yun Zhonghe! I'm not finished with you!"

Yue Laosan, severely injured, clutched his chest and glared fiercely at Yun Zhonghe.

"Brother Yue, I had no choice but to do it. You didn't die, did you?"

Knowing he was in the wrong, Yun Zhonghe gave a wry laugh.
