The Unorthodox Tomb Raider

Meanwhile, Yang Dongsheng realized something was wrong and ordered his men to guard the gate. However, the young man grabbed Qin Hongmu and jumped over a corner of the wall, disappearing in an instant.

Yang Dongsheng wanted to give chase, but Wang Lin caught up and stopped him.

"Your opponent is me!"

The young man led Qin Hongmu over the wall and ran eastward. Once they reached the main street and found the black market patrol team, those people wouldn't dare to cause trouble even if they caught up.

Soon, the group had run several hundred meters, but when they looked back, they saw that the other sword-wielding men were catching up.

"No, if we keep running like this, they'll catch up with us sooner or later."

As the young man was pondering this, he noticed Qin Hongmu staring slightly at a person walking towards him from the roadside in the distance.

"You know him?"

The young man didn't have much time to react and immediately took Qin Hongmu and ran to the young man's side.

"Hey, do you know Miss Qin? She's in danger right now. You need to get her to the street right away. I'll hold off the pursuers for you."

The person walking there was Fang Yun, who was equally surprised to see the two of them.

However, Qin Hongmu knew that the situation was critical, so he didn't explain further and said, "Young Master Fang, you should leave quickly too. If they catch up, they will probably attack you as well."

Fang Yun asked in surprise, "Who are they? Why should we run away? Can't we reason with them?"

The young man immediately became angry and said, "Why are you talking so much nonsense? All you need to know is to get out of here right now. You don't need to worry about anything else."

Qin Hongmu also grew anxious and said, "Alright, alright, we shouldn't stay here any longer, so stop asking."

I thought that Fang Yun would leave now that things had come to this point, but he remained motionless.

"Miss Qin, don't worry. We'll deal with whatever comes our way. Running away won't solve everything. Since they dare to come, they should be prepared not to come back. Don't worry, I will protect you."

"oops!"

The young man stomped his foot in anger, and Qin Hongmu was also furious.

"I shouldn't have talked to you!"

The young man was furious, then looked at Qin Hongmu; "Miss Qin, you should leave by yourself. I will do my best to hold them off for a while. As for this kid, since he refuses to leave, I'll drag him down with me as a scapegoat."

"This……"

Qin Hongmu hesitated again. She couldn't make a decision if she left Fang Yun behind.

........................................

At this moment, the pursuers had already arrived, only a few meters away from them. Even if they ran now, they probably wouldn't get very far.

"Fine, at worst I'll just die here today and have a proper fight!"

Qin Hongmu drew the sword from his waist.

At this moment, the disciples of Yang Wei Martial Arts School who had been chasing after them also quickly stopped in their tracks, each of them glaring at them menacingly.

"Why did you stop running? You old men had a hard time chasing you!"

They were all panting heavily, clearly the fast run had taken a toll on them.

Just as Qin Hongmu was about to have a proper fight, he noticed two figures running towards him at an even faster pace. They were Yang Dongsheng and the head of the martial arts school who had come to help him.

Behind Yang Dongsheng, Wang Lin and Qin Shan were tied up with ropes, as if they were dragging two dead dogs.

"This is……"

Qin Hongmu was disheartened by the strength of the enemy and didn't know what to do.

Chapter 568 The Last Strength of an Arrow

"Alright, Miss Qin, you don't need to be afraid. We're not here with any ill intentions."

"And I also believe that if we really have to say who has ulterior motives, your law enforcement elder and your second uncle Qin Shan are more qualified."

At this moment, Yang Dongsheng stepped forward, patted his chest, and said.

"Actually, I knew your father, Qin Ling, before. Although we weren't particularly close, I still admired him a lot. He single-handedly saved the Jingtao Martial Arts School from chaos, which is something that not many people can do."

"But now, as you've seen, the elders of your martial arts school, the '867,' are no good. Marrying you off to Lu Tianhai is just to turn you into his plaything so they can profit from it."

"Tell me, how can you possibly have any good dealings with people like that?"

As expected, Qin Hongmu's expression changed drastically upon hearing this. Although Wang Lin had been captured, he still couldn't wait to speak up and defend himself, saying, "Miss, don't listen to their nonsense. Yang Dongsheng was a liar in his younger days. You can't believe a word he says."

"Liar?" Yang Dongsheng laughed loudly upon hearing this. "I'm afraid that word is more suitable for you. Actually, I won't push my subordinates into the fire with my own hands. Miss Qin, I'm putting it this way today: as long as you're willing to come with me, I guarantee I'll treat you as my disciple. If Lu Tianhai comes and doesn't see you, then they'll be in for a world of trouble, hahaha."

Yang Dongsheng smiled as he spoke, clearly very satisfied with what he had done.

Qin Hongmu said, "What if I say no? This is, after all, my home."

"Then I can only apologize. As you know, there's no time to say anything more to you right now."

After Yang Dongsheng finished speaking, he made a gesture to the people next to him. Immediately, two young men stepped forward and walked towards Qin Hongmu, seemingly intending to use force.

Although Qin Hongmu adopted an attack stance, he was clearly not taken seriously by those people.

With Qin Hongmu's mediocre skills, he probably wouldn't even last two moves against them.

At this moment, Fang Yun suddenly spoke up: "You want to bring Qin Hongmu along, but it seems you haven't asked for my opinion yet?"

Qin Hongmu was startled upon hearing this and turned to look at Fang Yun in disbelief.

Yang Dongsheng's face darkened, and he narrowed his eyes as he asked, "Who are you? Why should I listen to your opinion?"

"I'm just a passerby, but I can't stand your robbery."

"Hahaha."

Yang Dongsheng burst into laughter upon hearing this, then shook his head and said, "Kid, do you know what? Just for those words, I could kill you right here today. Remember this: think before you speak!"

As for Wang Lin and Qin Shan, they cursed inwardly. They had thought this kid might have some background, but he turned out to be just a hothead. Although Yang Dongsheng had restrained himself a lot in recent years, his ruthless nature was still there.

However, they are too lazy to care now. As for a nobody like Fang Yun, he's just a nobody.

They were just afraid that Fang Yun would provoke Yang Dongsheng's anger, which would then be directed at them, and that wouldn't be worth it.

"Kid, I don't care who you are. I'll count to three, and you'd better get out of here right now and disappear from my sight. Otherwise, you're not leaving this place again..."

Yang Dongsheng naturally had to consider the consequences of killing someone on the black market. Besides, even if he killed this kid, it wouldn't do him any good, so he might as well let him get lost.

Qin Hongmu, who was standing nearby, also said, "Fang Yun, you should leave quickly. Even if they take me away, I won't die here. I appreciate your kindness."

Fang Yun, however, remained indifferent, seemingly oblivious to the situation.

“I said, Qin Hongmu, if I say you can’t leave today, then you can’t leave. If you insist on doing so, then you can forget about leaving this place.”

"you!"

Yang Dongsheng was so angry that he was blowing his beard while studying the matter. In all his years, he had never seen anyone so ungrateful.

"Kid, if you don't want to leave, then don't leave! Don't blame me for being ruthless; you brought this on yourself."

As soon as Yang Dongsheng finished speaking, he was about to order his men to make their move when Qin Hongmu urgently said, "Don't touch him! Otherwise, I'll commit suicide here too, and you, 1.3, should know the consequences. The black market will forever blacklist you."

Qin Hongmu's words immediately made Yang Dongsheng hesitate to act rashly, but Fang Yun suddenly patted Qin Hongmu on the shoulder and said, "Miss Qin, don't worry, they are the ones who will suffer if they don't listen to my advice."

Upon hearing this, Yang Dongsheng said, "Miss Qin, you heard it too. I think this kid is just a bit off. Why bother protecting someone like that..."

"You're so confident, is it just because of your second-rate Iron Wire Fist? You haven't even developed iron bones and copper skin, yet you dare to lecture people? That's too arrogant."

Chapter 569 Amazing Skill

Who are you?

Upon hearing Fang Yun's words, Yang Dongsheng was taken aback, and a look of deep concentration appeared in his eyes.

Yang Dongsheng's signature skill in his early years was indeed Iron Wire Fist, but in recent years he has lived a life of ease and rarely fights himself, so his strength has actually declined.

The question is how this kid could see through my technique at a glance. Besides, techniques like Iron Bone and Copper Skin are closely guarded secrets of the Iron Wire Fist, and most people don't know them.

Upon hearing this, Wang Lin and Qin Shan were also invigorated. It seemed that Fang Yun was not the naive and impulsive person he appeared to be, but rather someone with some background.

However, it's unlikely that Fang Yun can do anything to Yang Dongsheng. But if they can buy some more time until Young Master Tianhai arrives, then everything will be fine.

"Kid, you must have heard about this somewhere. If you just know something and start showing off, this habit is really bad. You could easily lose your life if you're not careful!"

Although Yang Dongsheng became more wary, he didn't think Fang Yun could really do anything.

"Haha, you're too confident. To be honest, with your Iron Wire Fist, I could probably break your form with just a pinch of my hand. I'm just too lazy to do it. Besides, your fist technique is obviously not completely authentic. Even if you don't develop Iron Bones in the early stages of authentic Iron Wire Fist, you'll still have white marks."

"Who are you?"

Yang Dongsheng's expression turned serious this time, no longer showing his previous calmness.

Even he himself wasn't very clear about the secrets of this Iron Wire Fist, but Fang Yun seemed to know it very well. Apart from those hidden powerful clans, no one else should have such extensive knowledge.

"Who am I?" Fang Yun laughed. "Didn't I already tell you? I'm just a passerby who saw injustice and decided to help."

Upon hearing this, Yang Dongsheng and the others thought to themselves, "Nobody would believe what you're saying. If a random passerby really had that level of skill, the probability would be no lower than buying a lottery ticket."

"Oh, I forgot to tell you, I believe you have heard of my other nickname. Actually, I haven't used this nickname for a long time, but everyone likes to call me... Master Yun."

"Master Yun?"

Everyone present looked at each other in disbelief.

The term "Celestial Master" is not something just anyone dares to use. If we really had to pick two types of people, the first type would be those charlatans and so-called "spiritualists." It's not surprising that they would call themselves Celestial Masters when they talk nonsense.
