His Yipintang also has many renowned masters in the martial arts world.

Those people are indeed very powerful.

Ordinary soldiers of about a hundred were indeed no match for them.

However, if these hundred or so soldiers were well-equipped and formed a battle formation, any martial artist who could avoid being disheveled in front of them would be considered quite capable.

If faced with a volley of arrows from these soldiers, they naturally had their own methods.

But most of the time they just fought and retreated, blocking some of the arrows aimed at them and using quick movement to protect themselves.

Then seize the opportunity to strike.

They could probably break through a well-equipped and heavily fortified army formation head-on without a single one remaining.

Although Ji Boying had not yet charged into the fray, seeing how easily he had received so many powerful arrows, Helian Tieshu naturally knew that his men could not stop him.

This is truly a once-in-a-lifetime event.

This truly surprised and terrified him.

Especially his own men, who were not ordinary soldiers.

They were not only well-equipped and well-trained, but even in one-on-one combat, they mostly possessed extraordinary skills.

The arrows they fired were from the most powerful batch in the army.

Ji Boying and Xiao Feng laughed heartily.

He then rushed towards Helian Tieshu at an extremely fast speed!

Dozens of warriors blocked Xiao Feng's path.

Xiao Feng roared and leaped into the air.

He circulated the Eighteen Subduing Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms with both palms, unleashing powerful palm strikes.

The clapping of his hands in mid-air felt like an invisible weapon striking the chests of these warriors with tremendous force.

Those who were hit invariably groaned, their chests caved in, and blood gushed out.

Xiao Feng had also fallen into the trap of the Western Xia Yipintang. Having just turned the tide, he dared not be careless again in the face of such a dangerous situation.

But after this exchange, it inevitably felt quite ordinary.

With a series of strikes from the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms, fifty or sixty people were killed in the blink of an eye.

It really felt just average.

He felt relieved and simply used Grand Ancestor Long Fist) to fight his opponent.

Elbow strikes, punches, kicks, and knee strikes—in the blink of an eye, several more people were knocked down.

It could be a broken bone or a sprained tendon, or damage to the internal organs.

He fell to the ground, unable to get up, and had no power to fight back.

It's like a tiger entering a flock of sheep.

He casually grabbed a few defenseless warriors and threw them into the crowd of Beggar Gang.

The Beggar Gang' Sect members naturally had brothers who worked well with Xiao Feng.

After all, Xiao Feng often led his brothers to charge into battle.

He immediately understood and took the antidote for the sleeping potion from the warrior's pocket.

Each of them worked hard to save their own brothers.

Although the elders wanted to help, they had just been detoxified and their strength had not yet returned.

Seeing Xiao Feng's imposing presence, with no one able to defeat him in a single blow, he naturally wasn't in a hurry.

On the one hand, they were excited by the might of their leader and the prestige of the Beggar Gang's Sect.

On the one hand, he felt complicated because of Xiao Feng's surname, Xiao.

Especially seeing that Xiao Feng didn't even need to use the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms.

With just this one move, Grand Ancestor Long Fist, he used punches and kicks to rout the Western Xia people, leaving them utterly defeated and deeply saddened.

Although they considered the Great Song to be the legitimate dynasty.

They never show weakness verbally.

However, they all understood that the Great Song was weak in martial spirit and that officials were acting recklessly.

The significance of Grand Ancestor Long Fist (a style of Chinese martial arts) truly excited them.

He was somehow brought to power by someone surnamed Xiao.

The Four Great Elders now only feel resentment in their hearts, regretting that they should not have let them reveal this secret back then.

Now we're in such a dilemma, caught between a rock and a hard place!

A mix of emotions welled up inside him, as if a bottle of mixed flavors had been spilled, a complex tapestry of feelings. All he could do was let out a few long sighs and watch as Xiao Feng slaughtered his way through the enemy lines.

Let's look at Ji Boying next.

He paid no attention to the commotion over there.

He completely ignored the people who had just mocked, threatened, and bribed him.

His figure flickered several times like a ghost, and he arrived in front of Ye Ernian.

Ye Ernian seemed to have seen a ghost, and with a heart full of fear, she quickly retreated.

I have no grudge against him, and I have never spoken out against so many people, so why is he targeting me?

Judging from the ruthless way he killed Yun Zhonghe just now, could it be that the fourth brother provoked him back then?

Ye Ernian naturally couldn't understand it.

Her martial arts skills are very high; she is definitely ranked second among the Four Great Evils.

Yun Zhonghe and Third Master Yue actually have similar martial arts skills.

While Third Master Yue is indeed stronger in combat, Yun Zhonghe has better Lightness Skill, so neither of them can defeat the other.

These two people are roughly equal to two against four when facing Fisherman, Woodcutter, Farmer, Scholar.

Ye Ernian was even taller.

High skill level, broad vision.

She had witnessed and experienced the skills of the most outstanding young talent in the martial arts world back then.

It was obvious how capable Ji Boying was.

They dared not resist at all.

She only wanted to rely on the fact that she was a woman and had skillful kung fu to escape as quickly as possible.

But just as he was about to take a step back...

Ji Boying appeared before her like lightning, leaving her with nowhere to retreat.

Ye Ernian's narrow eyes were full of ferocity.

He then held the little baby, whom he had just cherished, in front of his chest.

She wanted to see what kind of hero this was!

It is true that the Beggar Gang will win a great victory today.

But in front of thousands of self-proclaimed righteous martial arts practitioners, could he really be so ruthless as to harm this little baby?

But the baby simply stood in front of him.

Ji Boying gently stretched out her left hand and grasped the swaddling clothes.

Ye Ernian was afraid that her skills were not enough and that this last straw would be taken away from her.

So he had already wrapped the swaddled baby around his arm before he took action.

If Ji Boying were to directly attempt to seize it, he would naturally fall into the trap.

It can't be pulled off.

Kung Fu needs to be adapted to different styles, but we also need to be mindful of the potential harm to young children.

At this moment, the baby was also awakened and started crying loudly.

But Ji Boying placed his left hand on the swaddling clothes.

A hazy purple aura enveloped the swaddling clothes.

Ye Ernian felt a scorching current of air seeping into her arm along the swaddling clothes.

Hot!

It's so hot!

How domineering!

The Innate Realm Purple Mist True Qi, although it is a pure and orthodox Daoist Internal Energy.

But it also has its own unique characteristics: continuous, overwhelming, pure and upright!

A domineering force surged directly into the meridians of Ye Ernian's arm.

There seemed to be a loud bang.

There seemed to be no sound at all.

Ye Ernian's arm had already exploded.

Blood mist drifted down, but it all landed on Ye Ernian herself.

The swaddling clothes suffered no damage whatsoever, and under the protection of the misty purple aura, not even a drop of blood was stained on the baby.

Ye Ernian was tormented by intense pain, her vision blurred, and she saw stars.

Her will to survive made her instinctively take a step back.

Only half of the white bone remained on his left arm; no flesh or blood had been removed.

Ji Boying simply reached out and lifted Ye Ernian up in his hand as easily as lifting a chick.

He then retreated back into the crowd.

The sight of Ye Ernian in such a terrible state terrified the young girls.

But she still suppressed her fear, knowing that Ji Boying was not a bad person.

Ji Boying handed the baby to A'Zhu.

Then they saw Xiao Feng break through the army formation and pull Helian Tieshu out.

The two returned to the same place.

The few remaining Western Xia people who were still standing did not dare to approach.

They were so frightened that they turned around, mounted their horses, and ran away.

They scattered and fled, and no one knows where they went.

It's estimated that they can't return to Western Xia either.

Their top general has been captured; if they go back, they're doomed.

Xiao Feng, carrying the Helian Tieshu, stood together with Ji Boying again.

Ji Boying reached out and patted Ye Ernian.

I didn't want to hear a single word of her nonsense.

With a surge of internal energy, the indescribable pain from the depths of her bones and flesh tormented Ye Ernian until she was hunched over and convulsing.

He was curled up on the ground, looking utterly pathetic.

Xiao Feng casually tossed the Helian Tieshu to Elder Song.

Pointing at Ye Ernian, he asked with some confusion.

"Does your brother have a grudge against her?"

"I have no grudge against her, but it is you, Hero Xiao, who has a grudge against her."

Xiao Feng didn't understand.

Seeing Ye Ernian in such pain, A'Bi couldn't help but plead for her.

"Young Master Ji, although this person is a villain, she is still a woman after all, and she looks quite pitiful. If you want to kill her, just kill her. Why make her suffer such torture?"

A'Bi naturally had no idea what kind of person Ye Ernian was.

When Ji Boying punished Bai Shijing and the others, A'Bi did not say anything.

I just felt they deserved what they got.

"Sister A'Bi, you are unaware of this."

Duan Yu frowned, somewhat reluctant to watch.

But he still showed no pity for Ye Ernian.

He then explained to A'Bi and Wang Yuyan, "This person is the second of the Four Great Evils, known as the one who commits all kinds of evil. He is the most ruthless and vicious."

"Every day, they would steal or snatch a baby, pretend to be its mother, and play with it. When they were done playing, they would want... they would want..."

Duan Yu couldn't bear to say those words.

But everyone understood what he meant.

Those who didn't recognize Ye Ernian started cursing loudly.

A'Bi frowned and quickly hugged A'Zhu even tighter.

I looked pitifully at the sleeping baby.

He ignored Ye Ernian's convulsions on the ground.

"Boss, what should we do with these Western Xia Tartars?"

Elder Song inquired about Xiao Feng's opinion.

"Boss, kill these treacherous Tartar dogs!"

The meaning of addressing the crowd.

Xiao Feng gave the order subconsciously.

"Take him away and interrogate him!"

Xiao Feng gave Elder Song a wink.

Elder Song naturally understood.

This man holds a high position of power in Western Xia, but he must have lost his mind to dare to venture alone into danger to confront Xiao Feng.

Now that he's been captured and interrogated, who knows how much military intelligence about Western Xia he might obtain.

This was naturally a great benefit to the Great Song.

In particular, Xiao Feng couldn't tell them he wanted to kill them in front of them.

So that if they find out, they won't be executed after the trial.

To avoid them not cooperating.

"Yes!"

The Beggar Gang' Gang brothers obeyed orders.

It was only a reply that snapped Xiao Feng out of his daze.

Xiao Feng smiled with a hint of bitterness.

"I was too talkative. You can decide how to deal with these people as you see fit."

Xiao Feng said.

He reached out and untied the cloth bag beside his leg.

Pull out a crystal-clear, emerald-green stick.

It is the token of the Beggar Gang' Sect leader, the Beggar Gang's Sect's heirloom, the Dog -Dog Beating Staff.

"You can find someone to learn the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms from me. The Dog Beating Staff Technique has always been passed down only to the leaders of the gang. Come find me again after you have elected a new leader."

"Boss!"

"Master...!"

Many men were reluctant to leave.

"Why speak so formally, Chief? Every one of us brothers sees your unwavering loyalty and sincerity. Whether Khitan or Han Chinese, we brothers only recognize you as our Chief!"

Elder Song and Wu Changfeng spoke with absolute certainty!

Xiao Feng was also deeply moved.

Elder Chen said, "We all know the leader's intentions. Most of the people here are our own people. If you don't say anything and I don't say anything, anyway, these traitors are all dead. Let's just pretend this never happened."

After hearing Elder Chen's words, Feng Bo'e and Bao Butong both became cautious.

I'm not afraid of dying, but I can't die in vain.

Moreover, it seems that the Murong Family has really gotten involved in a huge conspiracy, and the young master is unaware of this. They cannot die.

Elder Chen's words clearly imply that those who obey him will prosper, and those who oppose him will perish.

Kill the unrelated people to prevent the news from leaking out.

Let's pretend that Xiao Feng was still a Han Chinese.

Xiao Feng shook his head expressionlessly.

"Whether I am Han Chinese or Khitan barbarians, there must be a result. A true man should never be ashamed of his origins!"

Xiao Feng was determined to go to Shaolin to find out the truth.

The Four Great Elders and the Transmission Elder looked at each other, speechless.

Although some people were willing to follow Xiao Feng, they all had to think about the entire Beggar Gang' Sect after all.

The ideas still need to be unified.

Xiao Feng made this decision, they couldn't simply stand behind Xiao Feng.

Xiao Feng turned around immediately.

Without hiding anything from everyone, he verbally explained the essence of the Dragon Capturing Skill to Ji Boying.

Everyone listened, but they were still completely confused.

I couldn't understand it at all.

They hadn't practiced the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms, and even those who had practiced Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms couldn't match the skill level of these two.

In addition, their martial arts skills were inferior to these two, whether in terms of vision, methods, or internal strength.

Xiao Feng wasn't an idiot either; at certain strategic points, all they needed to do was speak in coded language that the two of them could understand.

Therefore, even in front of a crowd, they would find it difficult to learn this Dragon Capturing Skill.

Wang Yuyan heard it clearly, but she didn't fully understand it.

Her skills weren't at that level, so naturally she couldn't understand it.

Perhaps in twenty years, when her skill level is high enough, she will be able to learn it.

Ji Boying had already mastered the skill after hearing Xiao Feng recite it once.

He no longer extended his left hand, which was tied with silkworm silk, but instead reached out with his right hand to grab at the ground.

Wind rises from the flat ground.

Ye Ernian, whose eyes rolled back and who was foaming at the mouth due to extreme pain, was grabbed by Ji Boying.

He gently slashed her neck with his left hand.

The Flame Blade sliced off Ye Ernian's head.

The body was thrown far away, left to splatter blood.

He casually tore off a piece of cloth, wrapped Ye Ernian's head in it, and handed it to Xiao Feng.

"Brother Ji, what's this?"

Xiao Feng didn't understand what Ji Boying wanted to do.

Somewhat bewildered, he took the severed head into his hands.

Ji Boying sneered, "Please help me, Brother Xiao, send this head to the abbot of Shaolin Temple. Tell him clearly that I tortured Ye Ernian to death, so as not to implicate you and let Shaolin Temple blame you."

Although Xiao Feng was still puzzled, he seemed to understand something.

With a wave of his hand, he first dismissed the Beggar Gang' Sect members.
