Li Changfeng assumed the Bridge Circling stance of Hong Fist. With a surge of true qi through his body, he unleashed Iron Wire Fist - Twelve Interlocking Rings. His hands gathered strength before he flung them out with all his might, sending twelve iron rings shooting fiercely toward the bandits.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
The sounds of flesh being pierced rang out. The bandits charging at the front were punched through by the twelve iron rings. The force did not dissipate until each ring had pierced three people.
With a pull of his hands, the iron rings neatly slipped back around his arms. Within five meters in front of Li Changfeng, flesh and blood flew everywhere, and blood covered the ground.
Covered in blood, Li Changfeng said calmly, "My Buddha's Compassion! Since you benefactors know your sins are grave and are so eager to go to Western Paradise, I can only send you on your way first. You're next!"
"Fuck your grandmother! You... you evil monk! You kill people without even blinking. You're practically a demon!"
"Good, good! I merely sent you to Western Paradise. How could that count as killing? At most, it was deliverance!"
With that, Li Changfeng attacked again, unleashing Hong Fist's Iron Wire Fist - Twelve Interlocking Rings. Wherever the iron rings passed, not an inch of flesh remained intact. The lackeys were smashed to pieces by the tremendous force, and One-Line-Sky Gorge was filled with an overwhelmingly bloody stench.
"Benefactors, don't worry. They've all been dealt with!"
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and said admiringly, "Master, your martial arts are formidable! We're all deeply impressed. With you here, we can rest easy!"
Suddenly, two figures hurried toward Li Changfeng. When they reached his group and saw the mess on the ground—flying flesh and the corpses of their bandits—they were furious. They were the Second Chieftain and Third Chieftain, who had just arrived. "Who did this? Get the fuck out here!"
"Just when one wave settles, another rises. What a nuisance."
"I did it. So what? What can you do about it?"
"Bald donkey, you're courting death!"
The Second Chieftain roared, drew his saber, and immediately attacked with the first move of Five Tigers Soul Severing Saber, Tiger Pounce. He leaped into the air and slashed down from above, his momentum bearing down like a ferocious tiger.
"Good!"
Li Changfeng laughed loudly, assumed the Split-Set Stance of Hong Fist, and unleashed the Gong-Character Tiger-Subduing Fist. Both hands shaped like the character for "work," he threw three consecutive punches, meeting the vicious saber strike barehanded.
Clang!
A metallic ring sounded as Li Changfeng punched the flat of the saber with one fist, then followed with two more punches toward the Second Chieftain's chest.
The Second Chieftain immediately swung his saber to block. The saber rang out with two loud bangs, and he was forced back several steps by the fierce fist force.
Li Changfeng, however, remained rooted in place. He exhaled a breath of true qi. Hard bridges and firm stances—such was Hong Fist!
Suddenly, a figure flashed behind Li Changfeng and gave a sinister laugh. He struck with Black Heart Palm, aiming directly at Li Changfeng's back. Caught off guard, Li Changfeng was hit from behind.
Clang!
A metallic sound rang out. The sneak attack landed on Li Changfeng as though it had struck an iron plate. Li Changfeng stomped into his horse stance, instantly cracking the ground beneath him as he steadily withstood the blow.
"What? This bald donkey is actually an external cultivation expert!"
The figure then used his lightness skill to dart several steps away to the Second Chieftain's side. He watched Li Changfeng cautiously, not daring to act rashly. He was the Third Chieftain.
Li Changfeng slowly twisted his body. Although that palm strike had not truly harmed him, his back still felt numb and uncomfortable.
The Third Chieftain's palm force is probably around three hundred jin, with roughly five years of Inner Force. Combined with his palm technique, he can strike with three hundred jin of force.
The Second Chieftain probably has around seven years of Inner Force. That saber strike just now carried nearly four hundred jin of force, about the same as mine. I only have a slight edge because my fist technique is fiercer, Li Changfeng thought.
At this moment, the two chieftains seemed to have reached an agreement. One attacked from the left, the other from the right, both charging to kill Li Changfeng.
From the left, the Second Chieftain used the second move of Five Tigers Soul Severing Saber, Beheading. A fierce silver saber shadow slashed toward Li Changfeng's neck, intending to sever his head with a single blow.
From the right, the Third Chieftain used the second move of Black Heart Palm, Heart Gouging. A pitch-black palm radiating waves of black true qi clawed viciously at Li Changfeng's chest.
Li Changfeng's expression darkened. With his left hand, he used Dividing Bridge from Hong Fist Twelve Bridge Hands to knock aside the fierce saber strike. Then he used Setting Bridge to lock the saber in place and yank the Second Chieftain over. Finally, he used Inch Bridge, unleashing a close-range inch strike that sent the Second Chieftain flying through the air, spitting blood.
With his right hand, Li Changfeng used Single-Piercing Fist from Hong Fist's Iron Wire Fist. The iron ring on his hand tightened as fierce force gathered in his right fist and burst forth. One punch shattered the Third Chieftain's Black Heart Palm, and the remaining force shot straight toward his face. Terrified by the ferocious strike, the Third Chieftain hurriedly used his movement technique to evade it.
He then circled beneath Li Changfeng, gave a vicious grin, and used Monkey Steals Peach to grab at Li Changfeng's groin.
Clang!
To the Third Chieftain's surprise, instead of the sound of eggs cracking, there was the ring of metal against stone. His five fingers went numb, and the hand he had clenched tightly suddenly weakened. It felt as though he had grabbed something incomparably hard, numbing his entire hand from the shock.
"Fuck! I'm really numb this time! Even that place has been tempered to such a degree. He's a true god among men!!"
Li Changfeng's face instantly turned bright red. Enduring the pain, he roared, "Fuck your sister! You dared to grab even there? I'll skin you alive!"
Enraged, he immediately unleashed Iron Wire Fist - Thousand-Jin Drop from Hong Fist. True qi surged through his body, the iron rings on his left arm tightened, and he smashed his arm downward, bending the Third Chieftain's damned arm ninety degrees.
Aah! Aah! Aah!
The Third Chieftain clutched his broken arm and screamed in agony, "My hand! My hand!"
Seeing this, Li Changfeng pressed his advantage. In just a few steps, he rushed before the Third Chieftain, turned sideways, brought both arms together, and smashed down toward his chest. Before the fist even arrived, the howl of its wind could already be heard.
Bang!
The Third Chieftain was struck squarely in the chest by the savage blow. He vomited blood mixed with fragments of internal organs, and every bone and tendon in his body shattered. He could not even cry out before dying beyond all doubt.
"Third Brother!"
Seeing the Third Chieftain die so miserably, the Second Chieftain cried out in grief, then roared, "Dead bald donkey! Take my life!"
After saying that, he threw out a handful of lime powder, turned around, and fled in panic.
"Motherfucker! I thought you were a real man, but you're just a coward. You think you can run? No chance!"
Li Changfeng circulated his true qi with all his strength and unleashed Iron Wire Fist - Twelve Interlocking Rings from Hong Fist. Violent true qi accumulated within the iron rings around his arms, making them tremble. Then he flung them out with all his strength, and twelve iron rings chased after the Second Chieftain to kill him.
The Second Chieftain sensed waves of killing intent behind him. When he turned around, he saw twelve iron rings flying toward him! He shouted, "Dead bald donkey! You've gone too far!"
Furious, he used the third move of Five Tigers Soul Severing Saber, Soul Severing. The Second Chieftain slashed five times in succession, sending five silver saber shadows chopping toward the twelve iron rings.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
The sounds of weapons colliding rang out. The Second Chieftain slashed aside ten iron rings in a row, but then his strength failed, leaving him unable to defend against the final two.
They smashed directly into his chest, making him spit out a mouthful of blood. Li Changfeng then caught up to him and shattered the crown of his head with a palm strike, ending his life.
After killing the Second Chieftain with one palm, Li Changfeng braced himself against his knees and panted heavily. Killing two third-rate experts in a row had taken quite a toll on him as well.
Suddenly, he felt pain in his groin. His heart jolted, and he hurriedly pulled open his pants in front of everyone to take a look. Five bruises covered his entire groin, sending waves of pain through him.
He let out a deep breath and thought, Thank goodness they didn't break! They're still standing tall—just as spirited as ever!
Du Jinxiu's face turned crimson at the sight. She quickly turned around, not daring to look any longer.
The other men immediately understood and gave awkward smiles. "Master, are you alright?"
Li Changfeng replied calmly, "I'm fine! What could possibly be wrong? My Shaolin Bronze Body Skill has tempered even that place until it's as hard as iron. How could anything happen? Don't worry!"
Everyone exclaimed in shock, "Damn! Master truly is a god among men!"
Ding!
With the sound of the system.
"Congratulations, Host! The Punishing Evil function has been activated! For every evil person the Host delivers, the reward will be: Experience Points: 50!"
"Damn! There's even a function like this? It seems this poor monk needs to deliver more evil people and rid the people of harm!"
