What Do You Mean, "You"? Take This Palm Strike!
The shadow puppeteers have switched to performing with live people.
The Ten Leisurely Elder flicked his wrist slightly, and the Fierce Tiger Gang disciple involuntarily threw a punch at Tong Tianba.
Tong Tianba wanted to retaliate, but he was one of his own.
Although he was impaled by the iron rod and unable to control his own body... the Ten Leisurely Elder's attack was so skillful that the man didn't die at all, and looked at Tong Tianba with a face full of panic.
They were all his subordinates, so he couldn't decide whether to fight them or not, leaving him with nowhere to vent his pent-up energy.
All I can do is shout and curse:
"Ten Leisurely Elder, you are a renowned master in the martial arts world, how can you resort to such despicable means? Aren't you ashamed?"
Hidden behind the man he was controlling, the Ten Leisurely Elder, attacked Tong Tianba while gloating:
"I'm just a shadow puppeteer, using only my basic skills to make a living. What's there to be ashamed of?"
"On the contrary, you, so young yet so unambitious, lead a bunch of thugs to bully a lonely old woman like me..."
Aren't you ashamed?
Tong Tianba wanted to retort, but he was at a loss for words.
Finally, he roared in anger:
"Attack together!!"
This 'shadow puppet' can block the front, but not the back. With so many people coming, they can easily overpower this old scoundrel if they all rush in.
When the time comes, we can kill or torture them as we please, won't we?
The people from Lu'an Escort Agency were dumbfounded.
The Fierce Tiger Gang, who were originally waiting to deal with them, suddenly found themselves fighting with the Ten Leisurely Elders, leaving them standing aside.
Lu Guiyan looked at Fang Shuwen:
"Although the Ten Leisurely Elders are a renowned figure in the martial arts world, Tong Tianba is highly skilled in Fierce Tiger Gang surrounding him, I'm afraid he's no match for Tong Tianba. What should we do now?"
"Young Chief Escort has probably already made up his mind, why ask me?"
Fang Shuwen smiled and said:
"Our trip tonight is relatively secretive, but the Tiger Gang was able to set up an ambush in advance. The young commander should be aware of the problem.
"But don't you want to know why the Fierce Tiger Gang had the audacity to attack guests from Flying Snow City?"
Lu Guiyan took a deep breath:
Are you confident?
"Have."
"Then we beg Young Master Fang to lend a hand."
Lu Guiyan her hands in a fist salute.
Fang Shuwen smiled:
"Good."
With a single word of "good," he took a step forward and instantly plunged into the crowd.
At this moment, the Ten Leisurely Elder was not at ease either. His martial arts skills were indeed not weak, but Tong Tianba was a notch above him.
This person possessed an indestructible body, seemingly made of copper and iron, and his physical strength was unparalleled; every movement he made carried immense power.
When the Fierce Tiger Gang swarmed in, the Ten Leisurely Elder was initially unharmed, but he soon found himself in dire straits.
Fang Shuwen's intervention at this moment solved his immediate problem.
Fang Shuwen struck out with a single palm, and two of the Fierce Tiger Gang disciples who were still besieging the Ten Leisurely Elders were instantly knocked into the ground.
With a sudden turn of his foot and a shove, a Fierce Tiger Gang disciple who had just turned around was sent flying like a cannonball before he could even react.
Two buzzing sounds came from the two disciples of the Fierce Tiger Gang, but before the blades could even get close, Fang Shuwen flicked his five fingers, scattering the blades. Then, with a hook and a push, he sent the two men flying backward.
With that one move, he became arrogant and disdainful of everyone.
After all, possessing the two great martial arts techniques, the Muscle Tendon Change and the Beiming Shengong, is something that ordinary people cannot compare to.
He fought as he went, and no one in his path could withstand a single blow.
This left the Lu'an Escort Agency members, who had just been following Lu Guiyan's orders and were about to step forward to help, speechless with astonishment.
I've seen people with high martial arts skills, but I've never seen anyone with such high skills!
Just who is Escort Chief Mo's junior brother?
Some people stole glances at Mo Beidou found that his expression was not much different from theirs.
It seemed even he didn't know that his junior brother was so capable.
The crowd exchanged bewildered glances, unsure whether to step forward... Wherever Fang Shuwen went, people and horses fell, his attacks ruthless and leaving no room for retreat.
In that short span of breath, he single-handedly killed almost all the members of the Fierce Tiger Gang.
At the same time, Xu Yuqing, the deputy head of the East Hall, suddenly flicked his sword.
With a hissing sound, a wisp of sword energy flew along the ground.
His sword strike was both ingenious and ruthless. Fang Shuwen was arrogant and disrespectful, so he secretly observed him and decided to strike at the opening in Fang Shuwen's back.
Mo Beidou saw it clearly and was about to exclaim in alarm, warning Fang Shuwen to be careful.
But Fang Shuwen merely lifted his foot slightly, then stomped it down.
Boom! Boom!
A force traveled along the ground, exploding all the way, and collided with the sword energy.
In the blink of an eye, the sword energy was shattered by the force in the instant of the clash.
The force continued unabated, heading straight for Xu Yuqing.
Xu Yuqing's eyes widened, and she retreated step by step until her back hit a tree. With nowhere left to go, she remembered that she could still move to the left or right.
However, at this moment, it was already too late.
Then there was a loud, muffled thud!
Xu Yuqing was thrown into the air by the force, and even the tree behind him cracked open from the middle.
While suspended in mid-air, Xu Yuqing coughed up blood, but suddenly felt a powerful force pulling him from the front, like a giant vortex.
It made him involuntarily move towards the center of the vortex.
He looked up and was met with Fang Shuwen, who had his back to him but whose five fingers were outstretched towards him.
The object landed in Fang Shuwen's palm, and in the next instant, the internal energy within his body surged back like a river, flowing entirely into Fang Shuwen's body in the blink of an eye.
Xu Yuqing didn't even have time to let out a scream before her head snapped with a crack.
Fang Shuwen crushed it instantly!
Throughout the entire process, Fang Shuwen never once looked back at him.
It was as if he were just an insignificant nobody, perhaps even an ant on the roadside, the kind that could be crushed underfoot at any moment.
There's absolutely no need to pay too much attention to him.
As Xu Yuqing's body fell to the ground, Fang Shuwen arrived beside the Ten Leisurely Elder and Tong Tianba.
The two had long since stopped fighting and were both looking at Fang Shuwen.
The Ten Leisurely Elder secretly rejoiced... his earlier feeling was right; this kid was indeed a monster.
If I had fought him before, I would have undoubtedly lost.
These days it's just a free shadow puppet show, nothing to brag about.
Tong Tianba's eyes were bloodshot with rage. He watched helplessly as his men died at Fang Shuwen's hands. If it weren't for the Ten Leisurely Elder, he would have rushed forward long ago.
Upon seeing him approach, he couldn't help but shout angrily:
"Who exactly are you...?"
"What do you mean, 'what do you mean,' take this!"
Fang Shuwen had no intention of wasting words with him. They had already fought to the death, so why bother saying more?
He flicked his right hand into a mudra and unleashed the [Demon-Subduing Dharma Seal] directly.
