Why do I have so many masters?

Dongfang Ximing hung her head down.

Yang Hu noticed that he might have again offended this resilient girl just now, and felt a pang of regret in his heart. The knife wound through his chest seemed to ache again. He turned his head away, stopped speaking, and quickly walked forward.

The passage was only about ten meters long, and he would soon be able to get out.

But as he was about to reach the exit, a series of crisp sounds suddenly echoed, reverberating endlessly in the damp flood passage—they were the Mo Family's mechanical hidden weapons.

Yang Hu's face changed abruptly, and from the grass on the bank ahead, dozens of crossbow bolts suddenly fired densely towards him. Behind him were Dongfang Ximing and Xu Sixing, and even though Yang Hu was heavily injured, he couldn't retreat even a bit.

He roared like a tiger and stepped forward fiercely.

The Qi Mechanism climbed step by step.

The crossbow bolts, which could be considered military killing weapons, suddenly stalled in mid-air, no longer advancing. Yang Hu crossed his arms in front of himself, then roared again and charged forward, a ferocious hungry wolf materializing in the void, howling up to the sky, then rushing outwards.

Fierce and brutal murderous aura erupted, and Yang Hu charged out directly, blocking outside. The gate officer of Liangzhou City, wearing full armor, only managed to hold for seven finger snaps before vomiting blood and retreating violently, fear evident in his eyes.

He was already considered a Sixth Rank Martial Artist, a protector of the state.

But in front of this bulky man, he was only an enemy for one round. Under the moonlight, he saw blood seeping through Yang Hu's chest clothes, obvious injuries present, showcasing the hopeless gap in martial arts prowess between them.

Yang Hu charged out of the flood passage, his heart immediately feeling open and wide. Ignoring his worsening injuries, he roared and rushed forward, striking down with his bare palms, sending the defending general holding the gun and attempting to organize the soldiers to notify the city's experts flying again.

This time, his moves were extremely ruthless. The defending general couldn't speak anymore, his Qi Mechanism shattered by the palm, his head hit a stone directly and he passed out, motionless, almost seeming dead if not for slight breathing.

Yang Hu breathed heavily, heart slightly relieved, and turned to shout:

"Sir, please hurry and leave!"

Xu Sixing nodded, grabbed Dongfang Ximing with one hand, and leaped out. Just as he exited the aisle, a streak of cold light suddenly erupted.

Essence, Qi, and Spirit instantly gathered into one. The appearance of this sword was unexpected even for Xu Sixing, its edge sharp, directly targeting Xu Sixing's brow. The latter suddenly snorted coldly, retreating urgently, having to return to the aisle once again.

A slender figure stood before the exit, face cold, yet the eyes alone were charming as autumn water.

Tie Lin thought it was catching a turtle in a jar.

In fact, it was an encirclement missing one corner.

Yang Hu roared angrily, turned back to kill Wuxin, his Qi Mechanism surging violently, the large lone wolf manifested becoming more real, fur bristling, fangs bared, tearing towards Wuxin.

Hou Zhong's sword in hand rose suddenly, piercing through the phenomenon in an instant, then with a twist of the wrist, the sword edge had already cut into Yang Hu's shoulder, and with another flick, pried out a piece of flesh the size of a bowl, blood gushing, if not for Yang Hu's nimbleness, this stab would have been at his throat, taking his life on the spot.

Missing a strike, Wuxin sheathed his sword, still staring at Xu Sixing.

Essence, Qi, and Spirit united; he had already notified the Liangzhou prefecture long ago, asking them to send three Middle Third Rank experts to surround and kill him, and judging by the time, they should be arriving soon. All he had to do was delay the time.

Xu Sixing clearly realized this as well, snorted coldly, and a fierce aura appeared in his eyes.

Holding Dongfang Ximing with one hand, he floated forward, palm striking towards Wuxin, who responded with attack against attack, the sound of the sword whistle ringing. In the blink of an eye, over a dozen moves passed, the long sword in hand vibrating more violently, evidently starting to struggle.

Another sword thrust out, Xu Sixing sidestepped, flicking the sword edge with his fingers.

The sword rang mournfully.

Tie Lin withdrew the thin sword in his hand, the sword edge still vibrating, immediately following with a left hand attack. Regardless of effectiveness, his aim was only to keep Wang Anfeng tied down, and his actions were evidently quite effective, making it nearly impossible for Wang Anfeng to break free, forced to turn and counter, Qi Force shaking, causing the lamp tower to quiver.

Clusters of flames exploded, then disappeared into the night.

"Tie Lin, I said, I need to find Dongfang Ningxin. If you don't believe, come with me!"

Tie Lin replied: "…To where?"

Without hesitation Wang Anfeng answered: "North City Gate!" Hearing this response, Tie Lin's last hesitation vanished, coldly saying: "Going to the North City Gate, so you and Wuxin can join forces to kill me?!"

"If you have no issues, then Wuxin won't have issues either, stationed there, why do you worry?"

"Come take a trip with me!"

With that, a sword light like dawn's first light shot directly at Wang Anfeng. Wang Anfeng couldn't explain clearly in time, only using his Barrier Blade to perform swordsmanship to defend, the sound of weapons clashing continuously ringing out.

In his vision, the moon had already tilted towards the west.

Time was running out.

Wuxin stepped back, calming his breath, covertly glanced at the bright moon and stars in the sky, estimating the time, heart beginning to sink.

The reinforcements from the Liangzhou City government hadn't arrived?

Could it be the message didn't get through?

Earlier, he seemed to be evenly matched with Xu Sixing in their fight, but in truth, he was always at a disadvantage, only able to maneuver with his own experience and willpower. The reason he could manage to do this was also because Xu Sixing was holding back, wary of potential reinforcements, and was still distracted by Dongfang Ningxin.
