Ling Yun had used up more than one fifth of his spiritual energy drawing up the two hundred talisman charms before they had initiated the rescue mission.

He had yet to reach the Physique Tempering Stage 4, so his Qi was not yet cultivated. There was also no source of spiritual energy for him to use around here. Every bit of spiritual energy was precious to Ling Yun. He could only hope to end each fight swiftly!

Master Compa.s.sionless was stunned when Ling Yun displayed the Tiangang Demon Fist. It had more fighting power than the Dharma Fist of Shaolin!

Fist hit fist as the Houtian Realm Level 4 opponent stood up to the challenge. What happened next was astonis.h.i.+ng. A loud bang was heard as the opponent staggered backwards. Blood oozed out from the joints of his fractured right hand. The opponent could no longer lift his right arm!

Even though Ling Yun was at Physique Tempering Stage Level 3, his true strength was actually at the initial stage of the Houtian Realm Level 5! He was on par with Deepa. What was this Houtian Realm Level 4 to him?

Combined with the Stellar Condensation Technique at the seventh minor realm, Ling Yun's fist might as well be an iron fist. He basically destroyed this opponent's right hand!

Ling Yun was only focused on one target now — to destroy as many enemies as possible so that the rescue plan could be successfully carried out by Xiao Meimei!

At Tie Xiaohu's current level, he could probably fight to the death with a Houtian Realm Level 2. Ling Yun could not count on him as a fighting force.

Ling Yun attacked his again opponent before he could retaliate!

There was no one with more fighting experience than Ling Yun. Since the opponent would not be able to lift his right arm anytime soon, Ling Yun aimed at his shoulder next!

The opponent was desperately trying to escape. However, speed was not his forte. He could not avoid his fate. "Boom!" Ling Yun's fist landed squarely on the shoulder of the opponent. The impact instantly caused a fracture!

"Ugh!" Horror and pain filled the opponent's eyes as he knew that that was going to be the end of him!

Ling Yun then attacked his opponent's lethal acupuncture point repeatedly with high accuracy. He then kicked the corpse more than thirty meters away!

Ling Yun turned back and smiled at the young man restraining Zhuang Meifeng. "Sorry, I did not keep my promise to make you the first to be killed!"

Provocation! That was an obvious provocation!

Ling Yun's target was to anger the other party. It was a hopeless situation. There was no other way to save Zhuang Meifeng unless the masters brought by the Sun Family were all killed!

Of course, Ling Yun thought of this strategy because that outcome was highly impossible.

Someone died! A deafening silence rang throughout!

Ling Yun had only incapacitated the first two Houtian Realm Level 2 fighters without taking their lives. However, he had killed this one decisively and mercilessly even though he had overpowered him easily. How could anyone not be shocked?!

All opponents at or above Houtian Realm Level 3 had to die! Otherwise, Xiao Meimei would not be able to escape safely when he delayed the four masters!

Ling Yun would definitely did not do anything he did not have full confidence in!

"Uh!" Tang Meng almost vomited when he saw a living person killed in front of him. He only managed to keep his composure because the scene was not too b.l.o.o.d.y.

All the women at the scene other than Master Heartless turned pale and started vomiting violently!

Zhuang Meifeng knew that Ling Yun had killed his opponent to save her. No matter what, he was killed in the blink of an eye. Moreover, it was happening in her own house! She tried her best to keep the bile down, but finally leaned over and allowed the contents to gush out.

In spite of that, Zhuang Meifeng's affections towards Ling Yun remained unchanged except for feeling a sense of shame that Ling Yun had to kill for her. She finally understood why Ling Yun said he was showing mercy when he was up against Xiao Meimei!

Compared to the tragic death of this opponent, Xiao Meimei's pain was nothing!

What was more important was that only one side would be walking out alive! Zhuang Meifeng thoroughly understood what Ling Yun meant when he said that to be merciful to the enemy was to be cruel to oneself!

Ling Yun killed a person in less than one minute. He stood tall and proud like the G.o.d of War. His fingers were still stained with the enemy's blood. He shouted, "Who's next? Come on!"

Sun Xing was a bully, but his legs wobbled when he saw the b.l.o.o.d.y scene. He had been spoiled by his mother. The first thought he had when he saw the chilling murder was to hide in his mother's arms, and he tried to do exactly that sneakily.

An opportunity!

Ling Yun saw the perfect opportunity to capture Sun Xing as a hostage to threaten Niu Fenjiao to do his bidding when Sun Xing broke out from the protection range of the masters.

It was not an opportunity to be missed! Ling Yun waited for Sun Xing to move further out of their range before unleas.h.i.+ng his Dragon Fish Phantom Ability!

Unfortunately, the middle-aged scholarly man saw through Ling Yun's thoughts and raised his arms! Pupupu! Three deadly coins flew towards Ling Yun. While Ling Yun was busy dodging the coins, he traversed more than twenty meters and tried to grab Sun Xing, who had wet his pants! But Sun Xing made it to his mother's side!

Niu Fenjiao had just recovered from vomiting.

"Mummy… Mummy… I am scared…" Sun Xing stank of his own p.i.s.s. His whole body was shaking in fear like a scared six-year-old.

He Xingyan frowned slightly at Sun Xing's behavior without saying anything. He just moved three steps ahead of Niu Fenjiao and her son to protect them.

Failure! Ling Yun cursed. At the same time, he could not help but admire He Xingyan's foresight. He cautioned himself to be even more wary of him!

This middle-aged scholarly man was definitely the strongest enemy now!

Even though he had not managed to capture Sun Xing, he did manage to rescue Zhuang Meifeng back to his side! He took advantage of the instant when everyone's attention was on the middle-aged scholarly man to activate his Dragon Fish Phantom Ability to the max. He then grabbed Zhuang Meifeng with one arm and dealt with s.h.i.+ Jian, who had been caught off-guard. He managed to break free and jumped back to Xiao Meimei!

"Big Brother Yun, that was so cool! Great job!" Tang Meng cheered with excitement as he perceived the series of events as a victory on their end!

Zhuang Meifeng and Xiao Meimei were also visibly impressed. Love and admiration flowed forth from their eyes.

It was no small feat. Ling Yun made use of the opportunity that was presented to him. Even though he did not manage to capture Sun Xing, he did manage to get Zhuang Meifeng back in one piece!

However, this was not the time to gloat. Ling Yun used his telepathic skill to send instructions. "They are angry now. Run once you hear my signal. I will delay them!"

Although his plan did not succeed, at least they did not have a hold on him anymore once he got Zhuang Meifeng back. Sure enough, they did not wait for an order from Niu Fenjiao before they struck! Ling Yun rushed out to clash with them!

It was three against one! Two Houtian Realm Level 4 and one Houtian Realm Level 3 against Ling Yun!

To preserve his spiritual energy for Xiao Meimei and the rest to escape, he concentrated only on Thousand Miles G.o.dly Steps.

None of them could land a finger on Ling Yun as he dodged at a rapid speed!

This time, Ling Yun's target was the young man who had restrained Zhuang Meifeng. He would carry out his promise this time to kill him first out of these opponents!

It can be said that Ling Yun was really lazy when it came to fighting. He used his strength very efficiently. In that case, why didn't Ling Yun use his Flying Needles and Steel Nails?

That was because the time was not ripe! He did not understand why the four masters had yet to fight him. As long as he had such a doubt, he would keep his trump card hidden!

He was still on the defensive, waiting only for the enemy to show their hand!

It was certainly impossible to hurt them with the needles and nails, but Lingyun could use the hidden weapon to block them from chasing Xiao Meimei and others when they were escaping!

The Fire Talisman and mystical brush was Ling Yun's ace in the hole.

Ling Yun pretended to miss his footing and fall, tricking them to converge towards him before using the Dragon Fish Phantom Ability!

"Swoos.h.!.+" Ling Yun appeared in front of s.h.i.+ Jian suddenly and smiled upon him like the G.o.d of Death. "I said I would kill you first. I will not go back on my words this time!"
