Chapter 33 Killer

The chase lasted for several hours.

The sky gradually darkened.

Huang Sixi saw from afar Mei Jianhe and Sun Zhongjun running into a forest. He was not familiar with the terrain and had no idea where they were.

"Husband, this is the Qinling Mountains!"

Tie Luohan showed Huang Sixi the terrain.

Huang Sixi immediately asked him: "Is this the territory of the Three Heroes of Taibai?"

"It's them!"

Tie Luohan recalled that when he was in Liaodong, Luo Liru once mentioned that the Three Heroes of Taibai were in collusion with the Tartars.

He immediately started talking about the details of the Taibai School.

When he was halfway through the story, he suddenly heard a burst of laughter in the mountains.

Huang Sixi and his four companions immediately pulled the reins to stop their horses, and looked ahead intently, only to see dozens of swordsmen in tight-fitting costumes rushing towards the vicinity.

"I never thought that even the old hero, the Magic Sword Immortal Ape, is no match for the Assassin Jianglong!"

There were three leaders among these swordsmen, guarding Mei Jianhe and Sun Zhongjun. They pointed at Huang Sixi and said, "He is really the assassin Jianglong. Are you sure?"

Mei Jianhe swore, "If it's false, let me shoot arrows through my heart."

"it is good!"

The three leaders snorted, "The deep hatred between your master Gui Erye and Gui Erniang, I, the Taibai Sect, will avenge you!"

After saying that, he led the swordsmen to surround Huang Sixi and the other three.

Tie Luohan looked around and pointed them out to Huang Sixi: "Sir, they are the three heroes of Taibai, Shi Bingguang, Shi Bingwen, and Li Gang."

The four of them are currently on a mountain road between two mountains, which is estimated to be more than ten feet wide. After Taibai Sanying brought their men over, without saying a word, he directly waved his hand and issued the siege order.

Huang Sixi looked around at the swordsmen around him. These people had hideous and fierce looks, and they were obviously vicious killers. Moreover, they came prepared. Although they rushed forward, they did not get close to him. Instead, they first threw ropes at Huang Sixi.

Huang Sixi swung his sword upwards, cutting the rope net, then immediately flew into the air, trying to escape the encirclement of the swordsman killers.

But just as he jumped up, the sound of arrows flying around him continued, and he was forced back to his original position in an instant.

After landing, he hurriedly looked around and saw twenty or thirty archers swarming out from the hillsides on both sides of the mountain road, shooting at him from all directions.

He immediately realized that the swordsman killers around him were just cannon fodder to hold him back, and the archers were the key to sniping him.

But the killers had formed an iron barrel outside him. Although he knew that the archers posed the greatest threat, he had to stay where he was and break the encirclement first.

Thinking of this, he swung his sword fiercely, slashing at the forehead of a killer, cutting off half of his head.

The smell of blood instantly filled the air, and everyone became restless.

"Arhat!"

"My husband, give me your orders!"

"Just watch my back and block their hidden weapons for me. Don't worry about anything else!"

"Ugh!"

Tie Luohan casually lifted it up, revealing a cassock woven from rattan skin and linen thread. This cassock was strong and durable, and had a large area. When it was swept, it could block feather arrows and dark green seeds.

Huang Sixi shouted to Li Yan and Hong Niangzi again, "Hurry up and ride away. They are going to kill me and won't be distracted to deal with you!"

Li Yan and Hong Niangzi rode their horses backwards without saying a word, and were not intercepted by the killers. The killers knew that the Dragon Subduing Hero was a powerful martial artist and did not want to distract their attention on the two of them.

But after the two men withdrew from the encirclement, they did not leave. Instead, they suddenly dismounted and rushed to the left side of the mountainside, using the trees on the mountain as cover, trying to deal with the archers on the mountain for Huang Sixi.

Huang Sixi knew that the archers posed a great threat, so he showed no mercy to the killers around him and attacked violently. He held the sword in his left hand and chopped with great force, and with his right hand he punched and palmed, attacking in an elusive manner. His offensive was unstoppable.

The area within a few feet of him was soon covered with blood, and corpses fell rapidly, with either their heads or bodies separated or their stomachs and limbs severed.

The assassins were all Central Plains warriors who were heavily paid by the Three Heroes of Taibai. Some of them were masters of the inner school. One of them raised a nine-ring broadsword and slashed towards Huang Sixi's head with a fierce "force to split Huashan". Huang Sixi raised his sword and slashed horizontally. The nine-ring broadsword broke with a "clang!" sound, and the Golden Snake Sword cut through the man's neck, and his head flew up into the sky with a "puff!" sound.

Coincidentally, the head was shaken by the force of the sword and flew straight into the arms of Shi Bingguang who was behind the killer. He hurriedly raised his hand to push it away and stepped back in fright.

Mei Jianhe and Sun Zhongjun beside him also subconsciously moved back.

When they stood still again, they looked at each other in dismay.

"This guy is so damn vicious!"

"That's right, killing people is as easy as cutting vegetables. No wonder he dared to chop the emperor!"

"We have hired too few swordsmen. We should recruit a few hundred more. We will tire him out even if he is exhausted!"

"It's really weird. He first fought with the Invincible Divine Fist, and then fought with the Divine Sword Immortal Ape. This master and disciple pair is invincible in the world, but they didn't even consume much of his energy?"

"No matter how strong he is, it will be useless. We assassins are not the main force. We are just holding him back. The victory or defeat depends on the sharpshooter on the mountain!"

"Oh no! That bastard couple is rushing up the mountain. They want to deal with our archers!"

The archers on the mountainside were actually quite scattered. There were only Li Yan and Hong Niangzi, and it would take them a long time to deal with the archers.

But the three Taibai heroes knew very well that they were going to deal with the Dragon Subduing Hero, so the archers must act quickly and inflict casualties on Huang Sixi. If they delayed any further and Huang Sixi killed all the swordsmen, the archers would become useless.

Thinking of this, Shi Bingguang, the leader of the Three Heroes of Taibai, turned his head and looked at Mei Jianhe and Sun Zhongjun: "Please send one of your men to intercept the couple."

He needed to leave one person behind so that he could provide reinforcement if an accident happened on the right side of the mountain.

"I go!"

Sun Zhongjun volunteered. She knew the background of Li Yan and Hong Niangzi, and knew that they were not from any big martial arts sects. Their martial arts skills were poor and they could only deal with archers. It would be no problem for her to fight two at once.

Unexpectedly, just as she was running up the mountain, she suddenly saw two figures descending from the sky and blocking her way. She looked up and was so scared that she almost lost her soul: "Master!"

The people who came were Mu Renqing and Cui Qiushan. They saw Huang Sixi tracking Mei Jianhe and Sun Zhongjun along the way in Huashan, and followed behind them.

When they arrived at the battlefield, Huang Sixi had already been ambushed.

When Mu Renqing saw that Sun Zhongjun was about to deal with Li Yan and Hong Niangzi, he immediately came over to intercept him.

Without saying a word, Mu Renqing directly used the Huashan Iron Finger Technique and pointed his finger at the Tanzhong acupoint. Sun Zhongjun was unable to dodge and collapsed and died on the spot.

Seeing Mu Renqing's heavy hand, Cui Qiushan couldn't bear it and said, "Master Mu, does Junior Sister Sun have to die?"

Mu Renqing pointed to the right side of the mountain and said, "Look, there is a Tartar and a great lama standing on the mountain. The three heroes of Taibai must have been in collusion with the Tartar a long time ago. The people of Huashan can die, but they must not have anything to do with the Tartar."

Cui Qiushan looked in the direction he was looking and indeed saw a nobleman with a rat-tail braid standing among the group of archers on the right side of the mountain.

He immediately became excited: "Master Mu, let's go kill the Tartars."

"Alright!"

Mu Renqing originally wanted to support Huang Sixi, but it might be a good idea to deal with the archers first. So he led Cui Qiushan and rushed towards the right side of the mountain.

Seeing this, Shi Bingguang whispered to Mei Jianhe, "Young Master Mei, Mu Renqing killed your sister, and I'm afraid he will kill you too. The assassin Jianglong also wants to kill you. If we lose today, what will happen to you?"

Mei Jianhe said nothing.

Shi Bingguang chuckled and gestured to Mei Jian and the nobleman who was looking at the right side of the mountainside:
"That's the Duke of Qing. You can go to his side and protect him. The Duke cherishes talents and will definitely take you in as his confidant. In the future, you can enjoy the good life in Liaodong without worrying about being punished later!"

Mei Jianhe's face became even gloomier. It was not that he had any grudge against surrendering to the Tatars, but it was too difficult to protect the emperor.

Mu Renqing personally went to kill the archers. If he went to protect the emperor, he would probably be slapped to death by Mu Renqing.

"Don't worry!" Shi Bingguang continued to encourage:

"The prince is protected by the Tibetan Grand Master. Mu Renqing has been severely injured by the assassin Jianglong and is definitely not a match for the Grand Master. I advise you to go and protect him out of kindness. It's up to you whether you listen or not."

He then pulled out two iron hooks from his waist, shook his head towards Shi Bingwen and Li Gang, and said viciously: "Let's go and meet the assassin Jianglong!"
