Chapter 252

Lang’s eight disciples struck at the same time, but Ye was merciless. He brought his Jiuyang Xuan Gong to the extreme and unleashed a sudden attack like a gust of wind.

This is a fast palm technique in the Dragon-Subduing Palm that is on par with the Cloud-Covered Sky technique. In the blink of an eye, Ye exchanged palm strikes with each of the eight opponents.

Originally, this formation of the Taizu Sect involved the eight people attacking simultaneously from all sides. It was calculated that the enemy would find it difficult to block the attacks, and would either have to dodge by relying on their own agility, or charge headlong into one of the attacks. Then the next wave would involve sixteen people attacking together, creating a situation of a net from heaven and earth, from which the enemy would have no way of avoiding.

Unexpectedly, Ye Guhong’s palm technique was so fast and fierce that he did not dodge or evade. The eight men could not withstand his palm power and fell over in all directions, blocking the people behind them from attacking.

Ye Guhong had assisted in creating the Four-Symbols Sword Formation to eliminate the crisis, and knew the ways of formation tactics very well. He was best at wandering around for a long time fighting, so he struck with a thunderbolt attack, destroying the enemy’s sharpness.

Naturally, he would not wait for the opponent to reorganize its formation. With a clear shout, he fiercely struck with the move 鈥淪eeing the Dragon in the Field鈥�. His body shot straight up one or two zhang with a single palm, and wherever he was, his enemies fell all around.

Immediately afterwards, he performed the moves 鈥淭he Two Dragons Taking Water鈥�, 鈥淲alking on Frost and Ice鈥� and 鈥淔ighting the Dragon in the Field鈥�. His palms followed his body as he walked, clearing a clear space in a moment. During this time, everyone who was hit by his palms coughed up blood and could hardly get up.

Lang Men Zhu, a man with quite a bit of ambition, secretly arranged this formation, with the real intention of dominating the martial arts world of Cangzhou. Unexpectedly, as soon as it was released, it suffered a major setback. Within a few breaths, the formation was in chaos. Frightened and angry, he yelled out, and with a move called 鈥淭housand Mile Guardian鈥�, he charged straight ahead, determined to entangle Ye Guhong with his martial arts skills, so that his younger brothers and disciples could re-arrange the formation.

This Lang fellow is able to lead the Tai Zu Sect and establish a firm foothold in Cangzhou, so his skills are naturally not bad. This move was full of energy and strength, showing the style of a famous master.

Ye Guhong didn’t even look at him, and with a loud rumble, he struck with 鈥淭he Dragon Soars with Pride鈥�. Seeing that Lang’s palm was getting more and more magnificent, Lang bit his teeth and pushed his back palm hard against the palm of his front palm. With a loud bang, he forcibly blocked the palm, and although he was shaken and his body swayed, he did not take a single step back.

Ye Guhong exclaimed, 鈥淲hat a palm force!鈥� and immediately followed up with a move called 鈥淪hock the Hundred Miles鈥�.

Master Lang tried to dodge, but his momentum was still there and he could not help but cry out as he responded with a double palm strike.

As the two met with four palms, Master Lang spat out a mouthful of blood and fell backwards.

Ye Guhong, however, was not one to forgive, and his body swayed as he absorbed the force of the rebound and launched himself into a flying 鈥渞ammed ram鈥� strike.

But he saw his palms open, forcibly pushing aside Langmen’s arms that were protecting his face, and his shoulders slammed into his chest. There was a crisp sound, and he didn’t know how many ribs and breast bones were broken, as they were thrust back into his internal organs by the force of the impact.

Langmen’s body flew backwards several zhang, landing heavily, his body trembling, blood gushing from his ears and nose.

The people of the Taizu Sect were all shocked to see Ye Guhong use three consecutive moves to kill their own Sect Master alive. Where were they still concerned about their formation? They looked behind them and then fled.

Ye Guhong, however, belonged to the Star of Heaven Killing, and his body movements were like a ghostly wraith, winding around the people before and after him. He killed one person with each palm, killing all the higher-ranking figures in the Taizu Sect, but spared the younger disciples.

In the heat of battle, he suddenly lifted one person in his hands and threw him with all his strength. The person flew like a cannonball for six or seven zhang, and with a crack, he smashed the pole of the Taizu Sect’s flag in the center.

The red flag fell with a whoosh, sending up a cloud of dust. Ye Guhong then stood firm, looking at his young disciples, who were crying out for their parents and fleeing, and said proudly, 鈥淵e Guhong of Emei Mountain has destroyed the Taizu Sect of Cangzhou! You wandering souls, if anyone dares to reestablish this sect, I, Ye, will definitely return to Cangzhou, and there will be no survivors鈥擨 have already warned you!鈥�

Since he had become skilled, he rarely fought ordinary martial artists. His opponents were either Xiao Feiyang, Ye Tiangang, or the likes of Wu Yan and Qinghai Sansian. Coupled with the fact that he was too young, his reputation was loud, but others always found it a bit hard to believe. They couldn’t help but think, 鈥淢aybe Ye Tiangang is old and his skills are no longer up to par. Youth is feared in martial arts, but he got the better of him.鈥�

Or they thought, 鈥淗ow could Shaolin lose to nine against one? Most likely Zhang Sanfeng and Mie Jie secretly did something to help their juniors become famous.”

The sixteen schools of Cangzhou are thousands of miles away from Emei, and they think that Cangzhou’s martial arts are flourishing and cannot be compared to the south, so these kinds of thoughts fill their minds even more.

Until now, seeing Ye Guhong raise his hand and move his body, he broke a hundred with one move and killed all the masters of the Taizu School, they finally realized that there is no false reputation under a famous name!

The remaining fifteen masters of the sixteen schools were pale and cold with fear.

They had not thought of stopping Ye Kuhong’s rampage, but he was too fast, and before they could make a move, he had slaughtered the older generation of the Taizu Sect.

The younger disciples of the Taizu Sect were unchecked, and one after another they stopped and ran, screaming and wailing their way through the array of the remaining fifteen schools, running back to Cangzhou as fast as they could.

The Taizu Sect had a large number of people, and now with the dead and the fleeing, more than a hundred people had left, and Cangzhou’s sixteen schools suddenly had ten percent less manpower.

Ye Kuhong stretched his fists and put on a smile, 鈥淲hich school is going to deal with Ye next? Or will you all come at me together?鈥�

Among the sixteen schools, the burly man who spoke first looked embarrassed, and gritted his teeth, saying, 鈥淵ou have only won for a while. Don’t underestimate the fifteen schools of Cangzhou. If we all attack together, are we still afraid of you and your disciple?鈥�

This guy is also very agile. Seeing that the flag of the other person’s school has been defeated, he simply changed from saying that he was from one of the sixteen schools to saying that he was from one of the fifteen schools. However, despite his tough talk, his weak heart could no longer be hidden.

Mie Jie stepped forward a few paces and said coldly, 鈥淵ou’re full of talk, but I don’t know your name or who you represent.鈥�

The man shouted, 鈥淭here are 48 styles of Hua Quan, and I have mastered them all! I am the master of Hua Quan, Zhou Jueyi. Now there are 16…15 martial arts schools in Cangzhou, and they think Hua Quan is the best!鈥�

After a moment’s thought, Mie Jie laughed out loud. 鈥淪o it was you! I thought who was here. You were expelled from Huashan by Huashan School, and you came to Cangzhou to start a new school! Haha, your school is a bunch of losers, you can’t even keep your school together, and you come to Cangzhou to act big, but how dare you lead your school to pick a fight with my Emei School?鈥�

Ye Guhong was intrigued, and turned back to laugh, 鈥淢aster, how do you mean expelled from Huashan?鈥�

Mie Jie said disdainfully, 鈥淏ack then, Huashan was famous for its three sword debates. Somehow, a group of people started a school at the foot of Huashan and called it Xiyue Huaxuanmen. Later, Quanzhen Guangningzi founded the Huashan School, and they regarded him as a thorn in their side and made things difficult for him several times. Guangningzi was old and indifferent, so he didn’t bother arguing with them and moved his school to the mountains. Haha, at this time, the south of the Yangtze River was mostly occupied by the Mongols, and the Huaquan School took the opportunity to join the Yuan court, killing many patriots who resisted the Yuan. The second head of the Huashan School, Yuan Xi, was infuriated, and with one sword in hand, he killed the Huaquan School and even abandoned his hometown. He fled far to the north, and only today did I learn that they are doing well in Cangzhou.

Ye Guhong laughed, 鈥淪o that’s it! If it weren’t for my master’s teachings, I would never have known that his school has served as the lackey of the foreigner for generations.鈥�

Zhou Jueyi was furious and shouted, 鈥淵e Guhong, you dare to insult our school! We will not rest until you are dead!鈥�

Ye Kuhong’s smile faded, and he looked around at the bodies on the ground, his eyes cold as he said, 鈥淚t’s already a situation of no living or dying, so what’s there to say?鈥�

This was the leader of the Poke Foot School who suddenly shouted, 鈥淒amn it, what an arrogant brat, I, the leader of the Poke Foot School, can’t stand him! Brother Zhou, if the Five Tigers of the Huaquan School don’t join forces to teach this rude brat a lesson, we’re all angry for you!鈥�

The head of the Yin Pistol School also chimed in, 鈥淟ao Huang is right! Brother Zhou, there are 48 styles in the Huaquan, and once you’ve mastered them, you can go anywhere in the world. The Five Tigers of the Huaquan can hardly show the full extent of the Huaquan School’s abilities. Why don’t you Five Tigers select 43 more outstanding disciples, so that this Emei kid can taste the awesome power of the 18 ways of the Huaquan School, the 128 ways of the Huaquan School, and the 18 ways of the Huaquan School combined with swords, spears, and cudgels!鈥�

Ye Guhong was delighted to hear this. He thought to himself, 鈥淚t seems that the sixteen families of Cangzhou are not united. The Zhou family regards itself as the leader of the alliance, but the others want to incite him to fight. In this situation, how can I not get involved?

He immediately exclaimed, 鈥淭his young master from an unknown school has aroused my interest. What a formidable sound this 鈥楨ntering the Hall and Entering the Room Fist鈥� and 鈥楽word, Spear, Knife, and Cudgel鈥�! Master Zhou, come, I await your selection of someone to fight. Let’s see if I, as a junior, can emulate the story of the Huashan Sect’s Yuan Xi picking a fight with your entire school!鈥�
