Revenge
"If you had just flicked your Finger Flicking Skill twice, he wouldn't have been able to escape."
Looking at Huang Yaoshi had come to his side, Ji Boying couldn't help but feel a little resentful.
Huang Yaoshi's face stiffened.
"How could I... how could I do something like ganging up on the weak?"
Ji Boying rolled her eyes decisively.
His strength had greatly increased; he had even driven Ouyang Feng away, and his confidence had grown stronger.
Although Ouyang Feng was more afraid of being attacked by Huang Yaoshi and himself.
However, if he could neutralize Ouyang Feng's Toad Style in a battle without interference from others, he would naturally win. Even if he couldn't neutralize it, with his current skill, he would remain invincible until his internal energy was exhausted.
Ji Boying changed his usual attitude and dared to mock Huang Yaoshi without fear of angering him.
If it weren't for the fact that he still needed Huang Yaoshi to conquer the world, Ji Boying would have dared to be even more sarcastic.
"They're not holding back when two of them are taking on one of you..."
Huang Yaoshi opened his mouth, about to say something like, "Who is Ouyang Feng? Who is he?" but he didn't say anything more.
In fact, Ji Boying could see clearly that Huang Yaoshi did not really not want to bully the weak with numbers.
Huang Yaoshi's bottom line is quite flexible. He does things that disregard moral principles, which is why he is called the Eastern Heretic. But at other times, he adheres to certain rules and acts arrogantly, saying that he disdains breaking the rules.
Ultimately, it's simply because people feel that Ouyang Feng, a grandmaster, had worked incredibly hard to achieve his skills, and it would be a real shame to kill him.
They actually share the same philosophy as Hong Qigong.
If it weren't for this idea in the original story, Hong Qigong wouldn't have been ambushed and seriously injured by Ouyang Feng on the big ship because he held back, losing all his martial arts skills and being stranded on a deserted island, where he would have suffered countless torments.
Ji Boying felt helpless about their way of thinking.
It seems as if some unseen hand is manipulating everything. Whether it's the martial arts figures I met when I was at Mount Hua, or the people I've met in this situation, it's always the same small things that can lead to deep-seated hatred, and it's always the same small things that can resolve deep-seated hatred.
Of course, although Hong Qigong was compassionate towards the poor and weak and only did good deeds, and Huang Yaoshi respected loyalty and filial piety, in the end they were martial arts masters, and Ouyang Feng was also a martial arts master. In their eyes, people like Ouyang Feng were naturally different from ordinary people, and they should always be more tolerant of him.
Although Ji Boying was somewhat dissatisfied that Huang Yaoshi hadn't joined in to help and eliminate the threat, he didn't say much in the end. After all, they had already run away, so there was no point in saying anything that would affect unity.
On the chaotic battlefield, the large-scale battle was drawing to a close.
After Huang Yaoshi's rough training and troop deployment, these martial arts practitioners, who were already quite spirited, had the advantage over these government soldiers.
It was only because Ouyang Feng and Qiu Qianren stopped Huang Yaoshi from continuing to command the battle that Ouyang Feng's Snake Slaves were able to release venomous snakes, which slightly hindered the battle, but the defeat was already inevitable.
After Ji Boying joined the battle, Huang Rong and her two companions arrived first.
Huang Rong stood directly under the commander's flag and took over command of the battlefield.
In no time, a few simple orders were issued, and the bandits of Taihu Lake fought with greater order and coordination.
The outcome has now been completely decided.
In the short time it took Ji Boying and Huang Yaoshi to exchange a few words, the battle had already entered its final stages, and many people had begun cleaning up the battlefield.
At this point, Ying Gu and some farmhands finally arrived late.
Although Ying Gu was Ji Boying's Registered Disciple and held a high position here, Ji Boying himself didn't take her seriously, so others naturally ignored her as well, allowing Ying Gu to find a quiet place to practice her skills diligently.
So when the fighting started here, no one went to inform her, which is why she arrived late.
Ji Boying saw Ying Gu arrive, he didn't say much and returned to the place where Qiu Qianren had fallen.
The venomous snake that had climbed onto Qiu Qianren and bit him twice was killed.
Carrying the nearly dead Qiu Qianren, he strolled through the air a few times, arrived beside Ying Gu, and threw Qiu Qianren to the ground.
Qiu Qianren truly lived up to his reputation as a martial arts master; he was still not quite dead at this point.
Unlike Ouyang Ke, who died on the spot, this gave Ying Gu a chance to kill her enemy.
"That's Qiu Qianren, the leader of the Iron Palm Gang. You handle him."
The fact that the enemy's shadow was found not only in his brother, but also proved that Ji Boying's words were true.
On the way from the Iron Palm Gang to the Guiyun Manor, Ji Boying, while practicing his Iron Palm Technique, also struck several wild beasts with his palm strikes. The palm prints and injuries were indeed identical to those on Ying Gu's son's body back then.
Faced with this enemy who had driven her mad for years, Ying Gu didn't know whether to cry or laugh.
The figures were distorted, their expressions crazed, and their bodies trembling.
It was a sound that was neither crying nor laughing, emitting a sharp, delirious cry.
Although Ji Boying advised her to keep a calm mind and she had been trying to cultivate her character during this time, she finally let it out at this moment.
Qiu Qianren died the Ying Gu Qiu Qianren struck him.
Ji Boying also stopped watching Ying Gu torture Qiu Qianren's corpse.
He flashed to Huang Rong Guo Jing's side.
"Have you caught any officers?"
Huang Rong nodded and said.
"They should have caught a few, some high-ranking officials and some low-ranking officials, but their identities haven't been verified yet before they're brought over."
"Send a man to search among the prisoners under the guise of being Duan Tiande's former colleague. At the very least, interrogate them to see if anyone knows Duan Tiande."
At that moment, Guo Jing became excited.
"If Brother Ji hadn't mentioned it, I would have completely forgotten about it. I deserve to die!"
"Guo Jing, don't get involved in this matter for now. Let Huang Rong handle it, so that the scoundrel won't be afraid to show his face. Once we find him, we'll hand him over to you for revenge."
"However, Duan Tiande may not be among these soldiers. Although that fellow has always liked to curry favor with the Jin people, it's hard to say whether he's here today. There's no need to be too anxious. With so many soldiers captured and Guiyun Manor having such a large influence on Taihu Lake, we'll eventually find that dog Duan Tiande and let you take your revenge."
Guo Jing nodded firmly, suppressing the raging fire in his chest.
Huang Rong then directed her subordinates to do this.
Ji Boying only intended to turn around and Guiyun Manor first, but Huang Yaoshi suddenly fell from the sky again, stood behind Ji Boying, and stared intently at Ji Boying.
Ji Boying took a step forward, and Huang Yaoshi followed with a step.
Ji Boying turned around, Huang Yaoshi put his hands behind his back and looked up at the sky, pretending that nothing had happened.
"Stop pretending, I can already tell you're itching to get back to work."
