Urban Martial Saint

Chapter 1859 - 1859: Out of Control (9th Update)

The commotion on this side startled the four people engaged in the chaotic battle inside. All four rushed out at the same time, fearing that their own people might be in danger. Especially Helian Tiehua and the Wolf Monk, they were the most worried. After all, the Seven Hidden of the Killing Gate and Bai Li Xi joining forces to deal with two Peak Masters was indeed too difficult.However, when they came out and saw the situation outside, the four of them were dumbfounded simultaneously.

Sky-Killing Master and Slaughter Venerable originally thought that Executioner Scholar and Snake Gentleman had already captured Ye Qing and seized the six weapons, so they rushed out wanting to unite with them to kill Helian Tiehua and the Wolf Monk. But who would have thought that upon coming out, they would witness such an utterly unimaginable scene?

Executioner Scholar, the strongest Peak Master among the four, was at this moment like a toy in Ye Qing's hands, being thrown around with no power to resist at all. Is this an illusion? Are their eyes deceiving them?

Slaughter Venerable couldn't help but rub his eyes, but upon looking carefully, the scene remained the same. He could even hear the cries of Executioner Scholar. It's no wonder; Executioner Scholar's bones were almost shattered from being thrown around, how could he not scream?

Helian Tiehua and the Wolf Monk had their mouths wide open, unable to close them for a long while. Such a scene made them feel unreal as well. Didn't Ye Qing lose his Inner Strength? Executioner Scholar could kill him in seconds, so what on earth is happening now?

Everyone present was silent, each filled with doubts, wondering if they had entered an illusion. The only sound on the scene was Executioner Scholar's increasingly loud cries; he really couldn't endure being thrown around anymore.

After a long time, everyone finally reacted. Sky-Killing Master and Slaughter Venerable shouted simultaneously, "Fourth Brother, don't be afraid, we're here to help you!"

The two of them rushed towards Ye Qing, but Helian Tiehua and the Wolf Monk had already been on guard. Seeing the two make a move, they immediately rushed up and stopped them. Now that Ye Qing had completely subdued Executioner Scholar, at this point, they naturally had to block these two, letting Ye Qing deal with Executioner Scholar first.

Sky-Killing Master and Slaughter Venerable, stopped in their tracks, cried out in anguish, yet couldn't get through to help.

"Elder Brother, quickly go help Fourth Brother." Having no other option, Sky-Killing Master could only shout loudly, calling Snake Gentleman to help.

Snake Gentleman glanced at Executioner Scholar being tossed around by Ye Qing. Honestly, he was a bit afraid. He knew Executioner Scholar's strength well, even stronger than his own. If Executioner Scholar was being brutally suppressed by Ye Qing, could he save Executioner Scholar even if he tried?

After a brief hesitation, Snake Gentleman suddenly pressed his lips together, emitting a rapid whistling sound from his mouth.

"Not good, that bastard is summoning those snakes." Bai Li Xi shouted hurriedly.

Snake Gentleman immediately had black lines on his forehead and shouted angrily, "Who are you calling a bastard?"

Bai Li Xi: "You, of course!"

Snake Gentleman: "You're the bastard, damn it. I'm a generation above you, and you dare speak to me like this?"

Bai Li Xi also became furious and shouted, "What do I have to be afraid of? Bastard! Bastard! Bastard!"

Bai Li Xi, covered in venom, made Snake Gentleman hesitate to attack. As for those poisonous snakes, although powerful, they dared not approach Bai Li Xi's surroundings either. Thus, Snake Gentleman had no way to deal with Bai Li Xi, and the two ended up facing each other in a shouting match.

Meanwhile, with the whistling sound Snake Gentleman had just made, a swarm of poisonous snakes charged out from the factory area in the distance, quickly surrounding the people here. Since Snake Gentleman didn't dare approach Ye Qing himself, he could only use these venomous snakes to deal with Ye Qing to rescue Executioner Scholar.

Seeing these venomous snakes rush out, those on Ye Qing's side also began to panic slightly. With so many venomous snakes, once they charged over, who except the Peak Masters could escape it?

"Everyone run fast!" Helian Tiehua shouted to the Killing Gate members, whose strength was utterly insufficient to resist these venomous snakes.

The Killing Gate members naturally wanted to run, but it was already too late. There were just too many of those snakes, spreading in all directions. When they saw the snakes emerging from the factory area, another group was already charging up from behind, perfectly encircling them in the middle.

"We can't run!" Ghost King Li Ruoyuan shouted in frustration.

"What do we do now?" Demon Queen He Qinghua couldn't help but scream.

"What else can we do? Fight them head-on!" Black Asura roared, brandishing the Overlord Spear as he charged forward, smashing the nearest poisonous snakes into minced meat with one blow. However, it was like trying to fill a sieve with water; there were so many poisonous snakes coming at them that even if he could swing his spear like a bucket, it wouldn't matter—he simply couldn't stop such a large number of snakes.

The others drew their weapons as well; even though they were injured by the Executioner Scholar earlier, they had no choice but to stand strong against the venomous snakes.

While battling the snakes, Cui Yu suddenly saw a pack of snakes heading toward Ye Qing. His expression changed, and he shouted urgently, "Protect Ye Qing!"

"Ye Qing needs us to protect him?" Netherworld Scholar grumbled, but with everyone else rushing toward Ye Qing, he couldn't stand idly by and had to join them in helping.

Ye Qing was still clutching the Executioner Scholar. By now, he had mostly figured out why he was able to wield the power of the Buddha's Relic. This was because the Executioner Scholar cultivated a Demonic Sect cultivation technique, and his inner strength was entirely demonic. The Buddha's Relic carried Buddhist principles inherently opposed to demonic cultivation techniques. It reacted similarly to the Demonic Sect power within Ye Qing from the Devouring Demon Flower as it did to the executioner scholar's demonic power.

It wasn't really Ye Qing using the Buddha's Relic's power; it was more like the Relic was controlling his right hand, tossing the Executioner Scholar around. The entire process was beyond Ye Qing's control; otherwise, he would have broken the executioner's arm long ago and wouldn't have wasted time like this.

Despite this, the power of the Buddha's Relic was irresistible. Even though the Executioner Scholar was the strongest among the four Peak Masters, under the control of the Buddha's Relic's power, he couldn't resist at all. Fortunately, he circulated all his inner strength to withstand it, or he would have been slammed to death.

However, the more he activated his power, the more he stimulated the Buddha's Relic. This made the situation even harder to stop. He was now utterly trapped, unable to break free on his own.

Ye Qing's situation wasn't much better. The Buddha's Relic's power was triggered by the demonic force within the Executioner Scholar, completely beyond Ye Qing's control. With poisonous snakes slowly encircling them, Ye Qing couldn't control his right arm, meaning he couldn't alter the course of events; even running was impossible. Once surrounded by the snakes, Ye Qing was in serious danger.

Luckily, Cui Yu brought the Killing Gate Seven Hidden to temporarily fend off the snakes. But this was no lasting solution; with so many snakes, even the Seven Hidden couldn't hold them back. If this continued, the Seven Hidden would lose their lives here, let alone protect Ye Qing.

Helian Tiehua also saw the worsening situation and shouted, "Ye Qing, kill him quickly!"

Ye Qing struggled inwardly; he wanted to kill the Executioner Scholar, but the Buddha's Relic's power was beyond his control; how could he kill him?

"Damn, Young Ye, are you performing tricks?" Bai Li Xi yelled anxiously, "Kill him quickly! Are you waiting for the Killing Gate people to be bitten to death by these snakes?"

The Killing Gate team couldn't hold on any longer; they could deal with the initial smaller snakes. However, larger pythons arrived, exerting terrifying power. Under this attack, the Killing Gate members could dodge the pythons but ultimately couldn't avoid the smaller snakes, getting bitten in several places.

Luckily, Ye Qing had already given them the Devouring Demon Flower, granting immunity to the venom, allowing them to endure. But it's not a long-term solution; with the increasing number of snakes and pythons, they were all bound to become snake fodder eventually.

"Ye Qing, why haven't you killed him yet?" Netherworld Scholar, bitten several times, raged, "Do you want us dead?"

"What is going on, Ye Qing?" Even Cui Yu couldn't resist asking.

"I... I can't kill him..." Ye Qing finally admitted helplessly, "I can't control my own body!"

"Ah?" Everyone was shocked, simultaneously gawking at Ye Qing. With him juggling the Executioner Scholar like a toy, they had assumed Ye Qing had become incredibly powerful. Little did they know, he couldn't even control his own body. What was going on?

"Damn!" Bai Li Xi cursed, "I knew it, you've been tossing him around without killing him!"

"Hahaha..." Snake Gentleman laughed aloud, "I thought you were formidable. Turns out, you can't even control yourself. You're just a display piece. Hmph, let's see how you escape today!"

After speaking, Snake Gentleman leapt forward, dodging Bai Li Xi and darting toward Ye Qing. He had feared Ye Qing's power earlier and dared not approach. Knowing now that Ye Qing couldn't control himself, he felt reassured and prepared to deal with Ye Qing and save the Executioner Scholar.

"Ye Qing, watch out!" Bai Li Xi shouted urgently, his power insufficient to stop Snake Gentleman, forced to watch him pounce on Ye Qing.
