Martial Arts World Assassin

Chapter 246 Dilemma
In the apricot forest.

The crowd was filled with gangsters holding weapons.

At a glance, there were at least two to three hundred people, forming a circle and watching a fierce martial arts competition in the woods.

When Huang Sixi arrived at the place, he saw people outside the circle with ragged clothes, disheveled hair, and many of them holding broken bowls and bamboo sticks. They were all members of the Beggars' Gang.

There was a group of extravagantly dressed outsiders in the circle, but they were blocked by the crowd and their identities could not be seen clearly.

Huang Sixi looked around the scene and asked Fu Minyi, "The Beggars' Gang is so numerous and powerful, why would Grandma bother to get entangled with them?"

He thought that with Tianshan Tonglao's superb lightness skills, if she tried to escape at all costs, Qiao Feng would not be able to catch up.

Fu Minyi said hurriedly: "When I came here before, there were only a few beggars in the forest. It must be the reinforcements from the Beggars' Sect who just arrived!"

She raised her head and looked towards the battlefield in the circle, and found that there were four people fighting fiercely.

She couldn't help but frown: "Before, only Qiao Feng was fighting the Lord, and now Qiao Feng seems to have invited new helpers!"

Those people were fighting fiercely in the woods. Their figures were as fast as the wind and they were jumping into the air from time to time, making them blurry. She couldn't see what situation Tong Lao was in.

Huang Sixi looked over and saw everything clearly.

Tong Lao has two opponents, one is a young scholar and the other is a burly man, who are attacking her from the left and right.

The young scholar was agile and had been using the "Lingbo Weibu" to block Tong Lao's way. He was no one else but Duan Yu, whom Huang Sixi had been tracking for a long time.

The palm technique used by the burly man was the "Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms", and his identity was obvious. He was undoubtedly the leader of the Beggars' Sect, Qiao Feng.

Logically speaking, with Tong Lao's skills, she would be no match for Duan Yu and Qiao Feng combined.

But Tong Lao held a girl in white as hostage.

There were several bloodstains on the girl's face. It was not known whether it was caused by being caught or for other reasons, which resulted in her appearance being disfigured. It looked shocking.

In fact, Tong Lao was not willing to fight, but once she tried to break through, she would be stopped by Duan Yu using his Qinggong.

However, although she could not escape, Qiao Feng could not hurt her either, because every time Qiao Feng tried to hit her hard, she would use the girl in white as a shield to resolve Qiao Feng's threat.

Duan Yu saw the white-clothed girl's face covered in blood, with the white veil on her chest stained red. He felt so distressed that he wished he could take her place. He kept shouting at Tong Lao, "Don't hurt Miss Wang again. She has no grudge against you. Why do you have to make things difficult for a weak woman like her?"

Tong Lao sneered: "You little beast are still a love-struck seed. Well, grandma is willing to help you. You are good at using the invisible sword energy. Go and kill the idiot named Qiao. Grandma will return this shameless little bitch to you!"

Duan Yu was extremely anxious: "Don't say dirty words to Miss Wang anymore, she is not a bitch, you are!"

Tong Lao was not annoyed at all, she laughed and said: "Little lover, don't be deceived by that little bitch, her whole family is full of vicious people, but since you are so obsessed with her, Lao is indeed willing to die for you!
The idiot surnamed Qiao doesn't know what's good for him. He was willing to be instigated by Zuo Zimu and shouted at me to kill him. There is no such a fool in the world. The sooner he dies, the better. Go and kill him, and I will give your little bitch back to you!"

Qiao Feng was furious. Ever since he met this dwarf witch, she had been calling him a beast when she opened her mouth and a fool when she closed her eyes. Her words and actions were disgusting to hear. She was as ferocious as a female demon and was simply unreasonable.

Seeing her hiding on Miss Wang's left side, Qiao Feng quickly swayed and circled behind the two of them, suddenly launching a palm strike into the air.

Tong Lao did not look back. She slipped in front of Miss Wang like a snake and chopped out with her palm, brushing against Miss Wang's left arm.

Miss Wang's left sleeve made several crackling sounds, and her fair wrist was affected by the true energy, and blood gushed out immediately.

Duan Yu was very anxious when he saw this: "Brother Qiao, stop fighting. Miss Wang doesn't know martial arts. If your palm touches her, she will be hurt. She must be in great pain!"

Qiao Feng ignored him. He sent out a palm strike, and his mighty body rose up like an eagle. He turned upside down and used the move "Flying Dragon in the Sky".

He struck down with his right palm, swooping down in front of Miss Wang, and hitting the spot where Tong Lao dodged.

If Tong Lao wants to avoid this palm, she must let go of Miss Wang. If she is unwilling to let go of the hostage, she must take the power of Qiao Feng's Dragon Subduing Palm.

Tong Lao narrowed her eyes, raised one palm, and rushed forward to meet Qiao Feng's thundering blow.

The two palms suddenly intersected, and with a "pop!" sound, the energy radiated outwards.

Tong Lao's body was like that of a girl of about ten years old. She raised her arm just in the same level with Miss Wang's face and gently scraped it outwards. Miss Wang screamed "Ah!" and another bloodstain appeared on her face.

Even though Qiao Feng had a heart of stone, he still felt sorry for her. When he first met Miss Wang, she was ethereal, radiant, and extremely beautiful. But she was implicated in the martial arts competition and her appearance was ruined.

Qiao Feng was about to retract his palm power.

At this time, Duan Yu heard Miss Wang's scream and rushed over like crazy, thinking to himself, I will go up and hug her, never let her get hurt again, let all the moves hit me.

Duan Yu could have used the Six Meridians Divine Sword to cooperate with Qiao Feng in besieging Tong Lao, but Tong Lao showed no mercy to her, and Duan Yu was afraid of hurting Miss Wang by mistake, so he gradually became flustered and began to lose his mind.

When Tong Lao saw Duan Yu rushing towards her, she pinched two fingers of her other hand and picked up a piece of ice.

Qiao Feng sensed a chill in the air and shouted, "Brother Duan, be careful! She's going to hit you with the poison talisman!"

Before he finished speaking, the life and death talisman had already shot out, and with a "poof!", it pierced into the "Tianshu point" in Duan Yu's lower abdomen.

Duan Yu felt a chill invade his body, and in the blink of an eye he felt an odd itchy sensation. He cried out "ouch", fell to the ground holding his stomach, and could not get up again.

Qiao Feng immediately flipped in the air and landed in front of Duan Yu to prevent Duan Yu from being captured by Tong Lao again.

He glared at Tong Lao: "Quickly bring the antidote!"

Tong Lao sneered: "If you can beat me, I will give you the antidote! If you can't beat me, not only will I not give you the antidote, but I will also kill all the beggars in your Beggars' Sect in the future!"

Qiao Feng couldn't help but be stunned. He had been fighting with Tong Lao for such a long time that he had already tested out Tong Lao's martial arts. If the two sides didn't have hostages and fought to the death, he was confident that he could defeat Tong Lao. However, Tong Lao's martial arts skills were excellent. If she just ran away, he would not be able to stop her.

If Tong Lao were to escape from the Xingzilin today, no one in the Beggars' Sect except Qiao Feng would be able to stop Tong Lao's assassination.

Qiao Feng suddenly regretted his decision. When he first received the news that some gang members were injured in Xingzilin, he immediately rushed to support them.

There were not many gang members in the forest at that time. After he fought with Tong Lao, he felt that Tong Lao had profound martial arts skills and was very difficult to deal with. Tong Lao was also afraid of him and did not want to get involved with him too much.

He actually wanted to release Tong Lao and let her leave Xingzilin. After all, Tong Lao had only injured a few Beggar Gang disciples and her life was not in danger.

But Zuo Zimu from Wuliang Mountain kept wailing and begging him for help in getting the antidote to the Life and Death Talisman. Seeing Zuo Zimu being tortured inhumanly, he felt pity and forced Tong Lao to stay.

Just as he was fighting with Tong Lao, the elders and hundreds of members of the Beggars' Sect, the retainers of Gusu Murong, and Miss Wang Yuyan from Mantuo Villa all rushed to the apricot forest.

When Tong Lao saw Miss Wang Yuyan, she seemed to be possessed by a demon and captured her without saying a word, which made him afraid to fight with all his strength. As a result, he was now in a dilemma.

Tong Lao has already made a harsh statement that she will kill all the disciples of the Beggars' Sect in the future. As the leader of the Beggars' Sect, Qiao Feng must respond. However, if he attacks Tong Lao with all his strength, Wang Yuyan's life will definitely not be saved, and this will implicate innocent people.

But if Qiao Feng cared about Wang Yuyan's life or death, he could only watch Tong Lao leave the Xingzilin, causing the reputation of the Beggars' Sect to plummet.

If there were only Beggar Gang members in the apricot forest, that would be easy to deal with.

But during the battle between Qiao Feng and Tong Lao, a group of fellows from outside the gang came to the Xingzilin.

Qiao Feng turned his gaze towards the crowd, scanning the faces of Bao Bu Tong, Feng Bo'e, Miss A'zhu, Miss A'Bi from the Murong family in Gusu, Mr. Tan and Mrs. Tan from Chongxiao Cave in Taihang Mountain, Shan Zheng, the iron-faced judge of Mount Tai, and Master Zhiguang from Mount Tiantai.

He was in a dilemma and didn't know how to decide.

He hesitated.

The Beggars' Sect leader Quan Guanqing, who was watching, suddenly shouted, "This dwarf witch is threatening us with hostages, so we should use hostages against her too!"

After that, he ordered the crowd behind him: "Quickly bring all those witches in cloaks up here. If the dwarf witch dares to hurt Miss Wang again, we will kill her!"

After these words were spoken, the Beggars' Sect disciples looked at each other in bewilderment. They didn't know whether it was right or wrong to do so.

Qiao Feng shouted, "If we also use hostages as threats, what's the difference between us and the witch?"

Quan Guanqing had no respect for Qiao Feng and snorted coldly: "Then please make your own decision, leader! Let's see how you deal with the dwarf witch!"

Qiao Feng was speechless for a moment.

At this time, Huang Sixi had already pushed through the crowd and walked to the battlefield.

Fu Minyi and Mu Wanqing held their weapons tightly and followed closely behind.

Halfway through the journey, Fu Minyi suddenly shouted, "Master, they have captured the sisters in the palace!"

Huang Sixi had been looking forward and was not paying attention to the situation on his left and right. When he heard Fu Minyi's shout, he stopped and turned to look over.

I saw twenty or thirty Lingjiu palace maids tied up with ropes and their acupoints were pressed, making them unable to move. Dozens of Beggar Gang disciples gathered around them.

Some of the disciples were dressed in rags, had no family, and had never been close to women. Today, they suddenly caught twenty or thirty beautiful young girls, and they deliberately approached them closely, and when people were not paying attention, they sneaked up on them and molested them.

But from the outside, they were huddled in the crowd to guard the Beggar Gang's enemies, and there was no violation of etiquette or offense.

Huang Sixi saw that the palace maid was surrounded by Beggar Gang disciples holding bamboo sticks, and suddenly he slapped an apricot tree beside him.

With a sound of "crack!", the trunk broke, Huang Sixi held the trunk with both hands and swept the tree crown across, instantly forcing the crowd back and moving next to the palace maid.

He used leaves to scare away the Beggars' Sect disciples and did not cause any casualties.

Then he used the 'Lingbo Microwave' to move through the group of palace women and untied all their restraints.

"See you, sir!"

These palace maids are all Tong Lao's confidants. They had all seen Huang Sixi at the foot of Piao Miao Peak that day. They knew that Huang Sixi was an extraordinary martial artist. As long as they rushed to the scene, no matter how dangerous the situation was today, they could turn the danger into safety.

They were excited and went forward to greet Huang Sixi, completely ignoring the hundreds of hostile eyes around them.

Huang Sixi waved his hand and asked them to stand behind him.

At this time, Tong Lao and Qiao Feng had temporarily stopped fighting. Hearing the noise, everyone turned their eyes over.

Right in front of Huang Sixi stood six leaders of the Beggars' Sect. It was they who had attacked together and subdued the Lingjiu palace maiden by pressing her acupoints.

When they saw Huang Sixi rescuing the palace maid, they surrounded him and glared at him.

First, an old man holding a steel staff stepped out, pointed the tip of the staff at Huang Sixi, and questioned, "These evil women used poison talismans to harm fellow martial artists, and you dared to save them. Are you in cahoots with them?"

Huang Sixi didn't look at him. He looked at Qiao Feng in the clearing in the forest and said casually, "These girls are doing things for me. No matter if they harm their fellow martial artists or not, they are all acting under my instructions. Go and call the leader of the Beggars' Sect. Let him come and settle all the grudges with me!"

When Fu Minyi and other palace maids heard this, they thought that Young Master Huang was truly a man of great righteousness, and it was worth it for their grandmother to travel thousands of miles to the Liao Kingdom to kill the Liao dog for him.

Tong Lao had already seen Huang Sixi and was about to greet him.

Hearing Huang Sixi say this, she laughed and said to Qiao Feng, "Little Ah Si is here. Your Beggars' Sect boasts about serving the country and the people, but it's all hypocritical. Little Ah Si really cares about the people. If Little Ah Si knew that your Beggars' Sect was trying to stop me from dealing with the Liao dogs, I wouldn't even need to do anything, he would just pick on your Beggars' Sect!"

Qiao Feng was very surprised, he never thought that the "witch" would actually say something to deal with the Liao dogs.

He did not ask Tong Lao anything, but walked towards Huang Sixi.

Hearing that Huang Sixi's tone was gentle and he didn't curse anyone like a beast, he decided to negotiate with Huang Sixi.

But the old man holding the steel stick could not stand Huang Sixi's arrogance, and suddenly swung the stick horizontally, with strong force and smashed it towards Huang Sixi.

As a result, before the steel rod reached his body, Huang Sixi took a step forward, stretched out his arm, put his palm through the old man's wrist, and used the "Tianshan Plum Blossom Hand" to grab the steel rod. The steel rod was already in Huang Sixi's hand.

Without waiting for the old man to react, Huang Sixi raised his staff and pointed at him: "The six elders of the Beggars' Sect are all mediocre in martial arts. Don't show off your abilities!"

A burst of energy shot out from the tip of the staff and hit the old man lightly in the chest. He was suddenly hit in the chest as if by a heavy hammer, and his body was lifted off the ground and flew several feet away.

Qiao Feng stepped forward and supported the old man's back with one hand to prevent him from falling to the ground.

The five people nearby were all shocked when they saw Huang Sixi knock the old man away with one move.

The old man is Elder Xi, one of the four elders of the Beggars' Sect. His martial arts skills are first-rate in the Beggars' Sect, but he is no match for Huang Sixi. How strong is Huang Sixi's martial arts?

The Kung Fu Transmission Elder Bai Shijing and the Law Enforcement Elder Lu Zhang originally wanted to attack Huang Sixi, but suddenly suppressed their impulse and took a few steps back.

The remaining Elders Song, Chen and Wu were all rebellious people who valued the reputation of the Beggars' Sect and were unwilling to be driven away by Huang Sixi's words.

The three men took a step forward together, one holding a steel knife, one holding an iron mace, and the other holding a burlap bag, and surrounded Huang Sixi.

At this time, Qiao Feng had just put Elder Xi on the ground. Seeing Elders Song, Chen, and Wu attacking again, he hurriedly shouted, "Stop it for now. It won't be too late to fight after I finish talking to them!"
