Water Ink Panel: Starting with Bow Technique to Hunt the Sun and Patrol the Skies

Chapter 163: Chapter 87: The Arrow that Fell from the Sky

"Kill!"

Taiping County Magistrate Du Yuntong and others understood that the traitors of the Huang Tian Sect would not spare them, each of them stirred up with fierce Qi, fighting to the death.

The two sides engaged in close combat.

On the official road, the war cries shook the heavens, deafening to the ear.

The Huang Tian Sect General held a long saber, his face calm and collected.

After killing Wang Yanjun, he glanced at the many officials without any hesitation, his figure burst like a tiger descending the mountain, directly charging into the chaotic battlefield.

Wherever he passed, no one could withstand his edge.

The County Governors and others engaged in the hard fight could not defend against him.

Normally dignified in the county government, Taiping County Magistrate Du Yuntong, now had an ashen face. He gathered all his Qi Force and roared, "Scoundrel, how dare you be so bold!"

"Hmm?"

The Huang Tian Sect General, twisting his step, swung his saber directly.

The saber light, like a whirlwind, pierced the void, carrying with it the momentum to tear everything apart, heading straight for Du Yuntong.

Du Yuntong's expression changed, and he leaped down from the horse.

Then, with fists clenched, a vast amount of Qi surged through his body, weaving in the air into an impenetrable net of Qi, forcibly catching the saber light of the Huang Tian Sect General.

The Huang Tian Sect General, unexpectedly calling out, "Hmm? The Qi Hai Realm! Are you Taiping County Magistrate Du Yuntong?!"

He recognized the cultivation of the person before him at a glance, only achievable after opening the Qi Sea, capable of freely manifesting such vast Qi.

And, as he knew, within the government office of Taiping, only County Magistrate Du Yuntong had reached such a level.

He had truly caught a big fish!

The Huang Tian Sect General, seeing Du Yuntong's exhilarated face, said, "I never expected to encounter such a great merit; taking you back, the Commander will surely grant a hefty reward. Since that is the case, I will not hold back."

With those words, his figure burst forth, his Qi also releasing outward, concentrating around the blade, continuously chopping down at Du Yuntong.

Du Yuntong, in haste, countered with his fists against the saber.

His skin, hardened like steel after years of tempering, aided by the Qi Force, was actually capable of resisting the opponent's blade with his flesh and blood.

Thud, thud, thud, thud...

The long saber and the invisible Qi continuously collided, both men exchanging blows in rapid succession, bursting out deafening deep booms.

At this moment, Du Yuntong inwardly groaned.

A few months ago, in his anxious pursuit of advancement in cultivation, he didn't expect to encounter a mishap injuring his meridians, causing his cultivation to regress instead of advance.

Now, with his injuries unhealed, continuously making moves, his Qi was gradually becoming unsustainable.

He truly couldn't understand why, after the Great Zhou Dynasty consolidated Martial Mechanisms, the Huang Tian Sect still had so many martial masters, including the Qi Hai Realm martial masters.

Du Yuntong refused to give in to death and shouted, "Do you think you can rest easy after taking down the county city? Having slain the officials of Yongzhou, the Prefectural Governors will not let you go; they will lead troops to punish you, making sure you have no place for your burial."

"If I die, I will surely ascend to the Yellow Heaven and achieve the fruit of immortality; there's no need for your concern!"

The Huang Tian Sect General pounced again fiercely.

Just when he thought he had victory in his grasp, Du Yuntong suddenly spotted a small flaw in his opponent.

His eyes sharpened, the Qi within his body boiling to its peak, his fists suddenly swung, two brilliant Qi streaks like lightning tearing through the void, accompanied by a howling sound, heading straight for the opponent's chest.

The Huang Tian Sect General, seeing this, his face greatly changed, attempted to use his saber to block with all his might.

However, he was still a step too late, a streak of Qi piercing through his clothing, hitting his chest fiercely, sending his body flying backward, crashing heavily onto the ground.

Du Yuntong stood in place, gasping for breath, his eyes filled with surprise, "Did it, let's go."

However, to his surprise, before he could mount his horse, the opponent took out a golden-yellow Elixir and swallowed it.

The next moment, he stood up as if nothing had happened and shouted, "You think you can leave? It's not that easy; I haven't had enough!"

Qi force erupted from his entire body, gathered on his sword blade, and then he lunged forward fiercely.

The Huang Tian Sect General turned into a beam of yellow light, rushing in front of Du Yuntong and slashing down, releasing a burst of Qi force.

A dull thud sounded, accompanied by a scream.

Already nearly exhausted, Du Yuntong had an arm chopped off under the adversary's strike, blood spraying wildly.

Following this, the Huang Tian Sect General's large hands suddenly transformed into a dark shadow, as quick as lightning, striking down upon his head.

County Magistrate Du Yuntong hadn't reacted yet when he felt a tightness on the scalp, and then his entire body was swept up like leaves caught in a fierce wind, out of control.

"Bang!"

With a heavy thud, the county magistrate was violently slammed onto the ground by the Huang Tian Sect General.

Dust rose up, and the air around seemed to tremble with it.

Under this powerful impact, County Magistrate Du Yuntong's Qi force instantly collapsed, feeling his organs shifted out of place, stars dancing before his eyes, and even breathing became extraordinarily difficult.

He struggled to stand up but found he couldn't move even a single finger, his mouth slightly open, managing only a faint groan, unable to utter a complete sentence.

"Did you ever think of today when you were in high position?" the Huang Tian Sect General sternly said, gazing at County Magistrate Du Yuntong, "All you people are the same, carrying sins too numerous to count."

County Magistrate Du Yuntong looked up, his eyes filled with terror.

The Huang Tian Sect General sneered, "Rest assured, I won't kill you yet; you have more value alive than dead."

After saying this, he looked around and noticed that the officials were either dead or injured, unable to make any more trouble.

Then, the Huang Tian Sect General looked towards the distance, "Some minor characters have fled; they looked like they had substantial wealth. We should chase them down."

He grabbed County Magistrate Du Yuntong by the collar, threw out a talisman, and formed a spell with one hand.

The talisman flashed brightly with gold, landing at his feet and lifting him up.

The next moment, he transformed into a beam of yellow light, landing directly in front of Li Linfeng and others' fleeing convoy.

Bang!

The Huang Tian Sect General slammed his palm on the head of Li Linfeng's leading carriage.

The galloping horses suddenly halted as if a great force staunchly blocked their path, their hind parts lifting high, then crashing heavily to the ground, stopping dead in their tracks, unable to rise again.

Sitting inside the carriage, everyone was thrown out, rolling and scrambling on the ground.

Looking up and seeing the Huang Tian Sect General, who appeared like a golden war deity, and then at the wretched state of County Magistrate Du Yuntong, they were terrified.

The Huang Tian Sect General casually threw County Magistrate Du Yuntong onto the ground and said expressionlessly, "Leaving without a word, don't you think that's a bit rude?"

Li Linfeng, who had weathered many crises, was at a loss on how to respond to this scene.

While they were delayed, many disciples of the Huangtian Sect gradually gathered.

Although some were lost, nearly twenty blood-soaked and ferocious disciples remained.

The Huang Tian Sect General looked down, sweeping his gaze over Li Linfeng and others, and coldly said, "You have two choices: die lying down or die standing!"

Li Linfeng opened his mouth, attempting to speak, but found he could not utter a complete sentence.

If he was struggling, there was no need to mention the others.

In the carriage, Shen Fang, Aunt, and others curled up into a ball, trembling.

"It seems you prefer to die lying down!" the Huang Tian Sect General said, hearing no response for a long while, making the choice for them.

He stepped forward, lifting the long sword in his hand.

Just then, a black light descended from the sky at an incredibly fast speed, accompanied by a roaring sound, heading straight for the Huang Tian Sect General...

"Hmm? What's this?"
