Meng Qingshan hardly needed to think to know who had sent that fierce killing intent toward him.
However, he paid it no mind.
Wang Ruozhi was seriously injured. Meng Qingshan was confident that even if they fought now, he might not be able to defeat Wang Ruozhi, but Wang Ruozhi absolutely could not kill him.
Besides, this performance was about to end. Wang Ruozhi would certainly not choose to reveal his identity at such a critical moment.
Meng Qingshan swung his spear, cutting down several more enemies.
Then he aimed the spearhead at another black-clad man.
Seeing the black-clad man raise his blade to resist, Meng Qingshan changed his attack. He no longer used a sweeping strike, instead switching to a thrust.
The art of thrusting was exceptionally refined, mainly encompassing three techniques: the level thrust, the upward diagonal thrust, and the downward diagonal thrust.
The level thrust focused on the enemy's chest, waist, and abdomen—swift and deadly;
the upward diagonal thrust targeted vital points such as the throat, face, and back of the head, fierce and difficult to block;
the downward diagonal thrust targeted the enemy's legs and feet, making it difficult for him to keep his footing.
At this moment, Meng Qingshan was using the level thrust. Within the Mountain Breaking Spear Technique, this move was known as Long Drive River Luo!
In the blink of an eye, the black-clad man's chest was mercilessly pierced by the spear. His hundred-odd-pound body was swept up by an invisible gale and hurled high into the air, crashing into several people trying to flee.
Meng Qingshan and his spear were as one, like a flood dragon choosing its prey. He moved effortlessly through the crowd, charging left and right, attacking without defending.
His spear technique was flawless. The black-clad men carried no long weapons, and their swords and other short blades could not get within reach of him, let alone inflict the slightest injury.
When Meng Qingshan swung his spear again, another black-clad man suffered the fate of having his chest pierced and skull shattered.
At this moment, any black-clad man targeted by Meng Qingshan's spear faced only death. There was absolutely no chance of survival.
In just a short while, Meng Qingshan had cut down dozens of black-clad men. He stood proudly among the crowd, drenched in blood, like a fiend who had just emerged from a sea of blood.
This grim, murderous aura struck terror into their hearts. Every black-clad man felt his courage shatter and fear rise within him.
The few remaining black-clad men panicked. They had no time to care about anything else and only wanted to flee in all directions.
Meng Qingshan, however, threw back his head and laughed.
At this moment, he absolutely could not let a single black-clad man escape.
He had just killed Murong Shao Xuan.
One had to understand that Murong Shao Xuan was Wang Ruozhi's biological younger brother.
Meng Qingshan knew full well that if Wang Ruozhi did not die, he would bring endless trouble and future complications.
Therefore, he not only had to kill all these black-clad men, but also eliminate Wang Ruozhi, this hidden source of trouble, to ensure peace in the future.
Meng Qingshan first planted the spear firmly beside him.
Then he flipped both hands. Several iron needles instantly appeared, and True Qi surged through his body before gathering at his fingertips.
With several sharp whooshes, he infused the Bone-Piercing Nails with True Qi and fired them with all his strength.
No matter how fast those fleeing black-clad men ran, how could they outrun the Bone-Piercing Nails in Meng Qingshan's hands?
After being struck by the iron needles, they fell to the ground one after another.
[You successfully killed Beyond Heaven assassin Lu Wuliang and obtained 800 cultivation points!] [You successfully killed a Beyond Heaven assassin...] [You successfully killed...]
Thanks to the system's kill notifications, Meng Qingshan did not need to examine the bodies one by one.
At this point, An Ning'er saw that Meng Qingshan had dealt with the black-clad men and walked over.
Wang Ruozhi truly lived up to his reputation as a veteran of the romantic battlefield and a master actor. Even with his biological younger brother dead before his eyes, he could still restrain his hostility and killing intent toward Meng Qingshan.
At this moment, he was even smiling as he met An Ning'er's gaze.
With acting this good, it was a real shame he had never had the chance to become an actor!
Meng Qingshan sighed inwardly, but his hands did not slacken in the slightest.
He quietly turned his hands and drew out ten more sharp iron needles, while True Qi surged violently through his body.
Whoosh, whoosh!
With lightning speed, Meng Qingshan shot the Bone-Piercing Nails at Wang Ruozhi.
At the same time, he swiftly pulled the spear from the ground and charged toward Wang Ruozhi with rapid strides.
Seeing this, An Ning'er cried out in astonishment, "Constable Zhang, what are you doing?! Brother Wang, watch out!"
Wang Ruozhi had long been on guard against Meng Qingshan. Though injured, he could still use his movement technique. With a slight shift of his body, he dodged the Bone-Piercing Needles Meng Qingshan fired.
Clang, clang, clang, clang...
After Wang Ruozhi nimbly dodged the Bone-Piercing Nails, the deadly weapons plunged into the hard ground like a driving rain.
Wang Ruozhi's expression was cold as he fixed his eyes on Meng Qingshan and demanded, "You are absolutely not a constable of the Seven Mysteries Sect. Who exactly are you?"
Meng Qingshan remained silent.
The time it took to say a single sentence was already enough for Meng Qingshan to reach Wang Ruozhi.
With the spear in his hands swinging like a flood dragon emerging from the sea, he thrust it straight forward with a sharp tearing of the air.
Seeing this, Wang Ruozhi no longer concealed his killing intent. He coldly declared, "Since you refuse to reveal your identity, don't blame me for showing no mercy!"
His figure flashed as he dodged Meng Qingshan's attack. At the same time, he struck out with one palm, the palm wind cutting like a blade as it went straight for Meng Qingshan's vital points.
Meng Qingshan's heart tightened slightly, and he could not help sighing inwardly, Wang Ruozhi truly deserves to be a key figure in the later main storyline. His strength is far beyond what Murong Shao Xuan could match.
