Chapter 14 Desperate

Chapter 14 Desperate
Xie Quan looked solemn and rushed forward to greet him.

clang!
Xie Quan's spear was launched later but arrived first, hitting the ring-handled sword. A stream of internal energy burst out from the tip of the spear, breaking Zhang Jinkui's strength.

Zhang Jinkui was well prepared this time. He just took a step back and stopped himself. He changed the chopping motion of the ring-handled knife in his hand to slashing motion, and with a move of the mountain king's claw, he swept towards Xie Quan and shouted:
"Li Yong, I'll hold him back, you quickly attack his left side!"

Zhang Jinkui knew that Manager Li practiced second-rate martial arts, and even if he failed to break through his internal strength, he was much stronger than him. So he tried his best to entangle Xie Quan and create opportunities for him.

But when Zhang Jinkui was fighting desperately, Manager Li retreated violently, using light Kung Fu steps to rush towards the valley entrance!

Zhang Jinkui's eyes were red with anger:
"Li Yong, you are deserting the battlefield, you will not die well!"

Xie Quan took the opportunity to attack:

"Haha, Zhang Jinkui, are you still going to fight back? Li Yong has already escaped. You alone are definitely not my opponent!"

Zhang Jinkui was shocked, and Xie Quan's inner strength shook away his sword. The spear hit his chest and abdomen, and blood spurted out of his mouth, but he roared:
"I have been wandering the world for more than 20 years. If I were afraid of death, I wouldn't be called Rough King Kong! Damn it, I will fight you to the death. Even if I die, I will peel off a layer of skin from you!"

His face was ferocious, and he raised his knife and rushed towards Xie Quan again, like a mad tiger, without any regard for anything.

Zhang Jinkui fought for his life, and even though Xie Quan had the upper hand, he was unable to defeat him for a while.

When the two men were fighting, Manager Li took the opportunity to rush to Wu Dong's side, stabbed him with a sword, and shouted:
"Attack with all your strength!"

Upon hearing this, Wang Cong and the other two used all their strength to attack Wu Dong.

Wu Dong was besieged by several people, including Manager Li, a martial artist at the peak of the marrow refining realm, so he had to retreat.

Wang Cong and the other two were overjoyed and wanted to continue their attack, but Manager Li turned around and ran towards the valley entrance, saying sternly:
"Don't fight, rush out with me!"

Wang Cong and Zheng Jun immediately used the light skill of Fu Hu Jin and followed Manager Li. However, Zhao Shan was stunned and stood there.

Manager Li turned around and glared at him:
"Don't run for your life! Don't you want to live?"

Zhao Shan gritted his teeth and followed.

The four men rushed to the valley entrance, and any bandits they met along the way were stabbed to death by Manager Li.

Along the way, he kept shouting:

"The Black Wind Village is too powerful to be defeated. Only by rushing out of the valley can we have a chance of survival!"

The escort team was already on the verge of collapse, and upon hearing this, their morale was completely lost. They shouted, turned around and rushed towards the valley entrance.

Chen Yuan had been keeping an eye on Manager Li's movements. Seeing this, he suddenly burst out with tremendous strength and killed the Bone Refining Bandit in front of him with a single blow. He then used the Subduing Tiger Step and followed behind the four men.

Wu Dong's face changed, he chased after them with his sword, chopped down the two guards who were left behind, and shouted:

"Guard the entrance to the valley! Stop them!"

The bandits from Black Wind Village tightly entangled the guards from Baibing Hall around them, while the bandits guarding the entrance of the valley rushed up with hideous grins, hacking at them with their swords like they were mowing grass, and the valley was filled with screams.

The guards had lost their fighting spirit and only wanted to escape. They had become lambs to be slaughtered, and killing them was no more difficult than killing pigs.

But they were not completely useless. In order to intercept them, the formation of the bandits guarding the valley entrance became much looser, giving Manager Li and others the opportunity to charge.

Manager Li thrust out the Autumn Water Sword in his hand. His moves were simple and crude. The sword seemed slow but was actually fast. He stabbed several bandits who blocked the road one after another and shouted in a low voice:
"Don't worry about others, just follow me and kill them!"

The four bone-refining warriors, Chen Yuan, Zhao Shan, Wang Cong and Zheng Jun, also tried their best. Their moves were extremely brutal. Bandits fell one after another along the way, which relieved a lot of pressure for Manager Li.

A moment later, the five people rushed to the valley entrance and were only a dozen steps away from rushing out of the valley.

But at this moment, Wu Dong caught up from behind and slashed at Zheng Jun who was at the back with a knife.

A sinister look flashed across Zheng Jun's face. He suddenly reached out, grabbed Chen Yuan's shoulder in front of him, and suddenly exerted force to throw him behind him.

But Chen Yuan seemed to have expected this. He turned around and hit Zheng Jun's forearm hard with his elbow!

Click!

The force of this elbow was so strong that Zheng Jun's forearm was broken and he let out a scream:
"Ah! You... uh uh..."

He suddenly staggered two steps, and only managed to stand with the ring-handled sword in his hand. He looked down and saw an arrowhead piercing his left chest, flashing with blood.

puff!
Wu Dong chased after him from behind and swung his knife, slashing across Zheng Jun's neck.

Zheng Jun fell down softly. Jiang Feng in the distance smiled coldly, pulled out the second feather arrow, took a quick aim, and suddenly pulled the bowstring.

Whoosh!
The feather arrow shot out quickly, aiming directly at Manager Li.

The timing of this arrow was perfect. Manager Li had just stabbed a bone-refining bandit to death. His old strength was gone and his new strength had not yet been generated. In a hurry, he could only turn around and avoid the vital heart.

laugh!
The feather arrow hit Manager Li's right arm. He groaned, his wrist shook, and the Autumn Water Sword in his hand almost fell to the ground.

Whoosh!
Jiang Feng then shot the third arrow, aiming directly at Manager Li's chest and abdomen.

Manager Li had no room to dodge and was about to be killed by the arrow.

Zhao Shan stopped and rushed over, exclaiming:
"Master!"

Chen Yuan's eyes flashed and he slowed down his pace slightly.

Wang Cong was closest to Manager Li, but after he was shot, he did not stop, but instead sped up, and was about to pass Manager Li. At the critical moment of life and death, Manager Li's eyes flashed a trace of ruthlessness, and he waved his left hand vigorously, and a thin and indistinguishable white silk thread flew out from the ring on his hand, wrapped around Wang Cong's arm, and pulled it hard behind him!
Wang Cong was like a wild horse caught in a lasso while galloping. His body lost balance and suddenly leaned to the right, just blocking behind Manager Li.

laugh!
The feather arrow pierced through Wang Cong's left chest and the arrowhead went out of his body.

Zhao Shan suddenly stopped and looked at the scene in disbelief.

Chen Yuan's expression also changed slightly, and his knife-holding hand subconsciously tightened.

The two men slowed down their pace, but the bandits from the Black Wind Village guarding the entrance of the valley shrank aside and dared not attack.

The only bone-refining bandit had just died under the sword of Manager Li. The remaining bandits were only at the skin-refining level and did not dare to provoke the three men.

Wang Cong stared at Manager Li with his eyes wide open, his face full of reluctance, blood gushing out of his mouth:

"Uh uh... Li Yong, you, you will not die well..."

Manager Li had a stern expression on his face. He shook his left wrist and threw Wang Cong towards Wu Dong who was chasing him.

Wu Dong slapped out with his left hand, knocking Wang Cong aside, then he gathered his strength and attacked Manager Li.

The blade broke through the air, making a sharp whistling sound, but Manager Li remained calm and raised his left wrist slightly.

call out!
A three-inch short arrow shot out from the sleeve under his wrist, almost silently and as fast as lightning, pointing directly at Wu Dong's throat!
Wu Dong had no way to avoid it, his hair stood on end, he roared wildly, and suddenly raised his left hand to block in front of him.

laugh!
The short arrow pierced Wu Dong's left arm, bringing out a splash of blood.

Manager Li turned and ran towards the valley entrance. Chen Yuan followed him and turned to Zhao Shan and shouted:
"Brother, hurry up and catch up!"

Zhao Shan was startled and without caring about anything else, he followed Manager Li and rushed to the valley entrance, but he quietly distanced himself from him.

The bandits bullied the weak and feared the strong. Seeing that even Wu Dong was injured, they did not dare to stop the three men.

But Wu Dong was watching behind them, and they couldn't just give way. They could only resist symbolically for a few times, then pretend to be defeated and make way.

Manager Li and his two companions were eager to escape, so they did not get entangled with them. After the bandits retreated, they immediately rushed out of the valley.

Wu Dong looked at the three people running for their lives, but did not chase them immediately. Instead, he raised his left arm, pulled out the short arrow, and carefully examined the wound.

Blood gushed out from the wound, bright red in color. Wu Dong took a quick sniff and found no peculiar smell. Only then did he feel relieved.

At this time, Jiang Feng came to the valley entrance, watched Wu Dong check his wound, and said with concern:
"Brother Dong, are you okay?"

Wu Dong tore off a piece of cloth from his waist, bandaged the wound hastily, and grinned:
"It's okay. The arrows weren't poisoned. Fortunately, I reacted in time and didn't hurt any vital parts. Just go back to the village and ask Doctor Mo to take a look."

Jiang Feng breathed a sigh of relief, then said murderously:
"Brother said that the people from Baibing Hall cannot be left alive. I will lead my men to chase them and kill them all!"

Wu Dong shook his head:

"No, I'll go. The forest is dense and your archery skills are not easy to use. It's better to stay in the valley and guard the entrance to prevent anyone from escaping."

Jiang Feng hesitated and said:
"Your injury..."

Wu Dong waved his left arm nonchalantly:

"It's just a superficial wound, it's not a big deal. But Li Yong was shot in the right arm by your arrow, so his strength has been greatly reduced. If I bring three bone-refining brothers with me, we will definitely be safe."

"Alright." Jiang Feng nodded, and looked up at Xie Quan who was still fighting fiercely with Zhang Jinkui, "Zhang Jinkui is really brave, I will go and lend a helping hand to big brother."

Wu Dong laughed:

"If Li Yong and Zhang Jinkui had joined forces, we might have had a tough fight. But who would have thought that he was such a coward? The reputation of the Six Sun Sword is really wasted! But this plan was in vain. In this deep forest, he can't escape from my grasp!"

……

Half an hour later, in a dense forest, Manager Li and his two companions cut through the thorny vines in front of them and climbed up the mountain with difficulty.

The black tights on their bodies turned into pieces of rags, and the surface of their skin was cut by thorns with many tiny wounds, bleeding profusely.

Behind the three people, Wu Dong's voice could be heard faintly:

"Follow them, don't let them run away..."

After the three escaped from the valley, Manager Li simply treated the wound on his right arm with medicine and swallowed a hemostatic pill, then Wu Dong led his men to catch up.

The guide who knew the route died in the valley. The three men did not dare to take the same mountain route they came from, so they could only choose a random direction and escape into the forest.

The forest was full of thorny vines, and the three men could only cut their way out, which was a very difficult process.

Wu Dong led the bandits and chased them relentlessly, forcing them not to stop.

But the speed of the two sides was getting closer and closer, and now they were about to be caught up.

Click!

Zhao Shan struggled to cut open a vine, and the three of them came to an open space covered with rocks halfway up the mountain.

Manager Li stopped, panting, and said:
"We can't run away anymore. We don't know the mountain roads, but the Black Wind Village has been operating deep in the Chimang Mountains. They are familiar with the terrain and know how to track people in the mountains. If we continue like this, we will be caught up sooner or later!"
