Chapter 522 Unparalleled Slaying of Enemies, Yang Guo Watches the Show
Yang Guo, with Cheng Ying in his arms, stood by and leisurely watched the show.
"Steward Cheng, look at Wushuang's strike. The strike was fast, but the retraction was slow. He couldn't lock his waist and hips properly. He needs to practice more when we get back."
Yang Guo placed his palm boldly on Cheng Ying's Mingmen acupoint on her lower back.
Cheng Ying was held tightly around the waist by him, her body pressed extremely close, yet she couldn't pull away.
She bit her thin lips lightly, her breathing already a little erratic.
"Brother Yang, you must be careful and not be careless. White Camel Mountain is cunning and uses poison, so don't just laugh it off."
Her words, seemingly out of concern, were actually an attempt to distract Yang Guo and get him to remove his hand.
This controlling tone, where she tries to micromanage everything, is precisely due to her deep-seated desire for control.
She was trying to regain a tiny bit of initiative in their extremely unequal relationship through this method.
Lu Wushuang heard it clearly from the front, and suddenly turned the curved knife in her hand, the back of the blade grazing Bai Yulang's short sword.
She snorted coldly: "Cousin, why do you care about him? He'd love for me to take a few more sword blows so he can use it as an excuse to scold me."
Lu Wushuang was clearly jealous.
She had just opened the meridians in her left leg, and her hearing was excellent at that moment. She could hear the sound of the two people behind her rubbing their clothes together.
She simply unleashed all her anger on her opponent.
Yang Guo laughed loudly, "If you can't even take down this thieving bird, you won't get any sleep tonight. Go outside and keep watch for me."
Lu Wushuang immediately got angry upon hearing this, as she hated night watch the most.
She used to have to keep watch over Yang Guo and Huang Rong, but now she has to keep watch over him and her cousin.
Enraged by those words, she suddenly lowered her blade, her body slanting along the ground as she aimed for Bai Yulang's ankle.
She used the Snake Walk and Fox Leap technique from the Nine Yin Manual.
This movement technique emphasizes staying close to the ground and keeping the center of gravity extremely low.
Lu Wushuang's old injury to her left leg has been cured, and the special squatting training under the waterfall has made her lower body as stable as a rock.
She consumed nine Bodhi snake galls at the Sword Tomb, and the medicinal effects have been completely refined by the Yi Jin Duan Gu Pian (a traditional Chinese medicine text).
True energy was poured into the willow-leaf scimitar, and the blade gleamed with a lustrous sheen.
She slid out onto the slippery mud with her soles, and with a sudden burst of power from her waist and hips, she swung her curved blade upwards.
The blade sliced through the air with a sharp whistling sound, heading straight for Bai Yulang's right Achilles tendon.
Bai Yulang's expression changed, and he took three steps back.
His lightness skill should have surpassed Lu Wushuang's, but the ground outside this snake cave was slippery, and there were rotten snake bones hidden under the rubble.
The Snake Shadow Step of White Camel Mountain emphasizes power from the forefoot, aiming to make it difficult to discern between feints and real attacks.
Now that Yang Guo has seen through his landing point, his movements have become less agile.
As soon as Bai Yulang's forefoot touched the ground, he stepped on a moss-covered pebble.
The stone slid, and he swayed slightly.
Lu Wushuang keenly seized the opening and slashed out with his curved blade.
Bai Yulang had no choice but to raise his sword to parry.
The short sword and the scimitar clashed violently, sparks flying everywhere.
The internal force of the "Yi Jin Duan Gu Pian" was long and profound, and it rebounded along the blade.
Bai Yulang felt a numbness in his hand, and the short sword in his hand almost flew out.
He specializes in poison techniques, and his internal energy follows a sinister path. He is most afraid of this kind of upright and orthodox Xuanmen martial arts.
After several exchanges, he not only failed to gain the upper hand, but even had a tear cut into the side of his leather boots, revealing the specially made metal armor inside.
The person who is in more trouble is Cheng Ying.
Although she stood beside Yang Guo, holding the heavy inner core of the Serpent King in her hands, she was still able to keep an eye on the battle.
The inner core of the snake king emitted extremely high heat, and Cheng Ying had to continuously circulate her Falling Petal True Qi to envelop it in order to barely hold it up.
She was proficient in Qimen Dunjia, and her greatest skill was observing the qi and the situation.
The Qimen Dunjia techniques of Peach Blossom Island can not only be used to set up formations, but also to deduce the enemy's next move by observing subtle changes in the surrounding environment.
Cheng Ying stared intently at the outline of the aura surrounding Bai Yulang.
Every step Bai Yulang took, every flow of his true energy, was traceable in her eyes.
"Wushuang, his right shoulder is drooping, and there's a needle groove hidden in the end of his flute!" Cheng Ying reminded him.
She noticed the trajectory of Bai Yulang's right shoulder muscles contracting, and his true energy was frantically converging towards his wrist—a clear sign that he was about to launch a hidden weapon.
Upon hearing the sound, Lu Wushuang moved immediately, rolling to the left.
Three thin needles grazed her hair and then plunged into the stone wall, instantly emitting wisps of blue smoke around the needle holes.
These three fine needles are coated with a secret snake venom recipe from White Camel Mountain, specifically designed to break through the body's protective qi.
The moss on the stone wall was corroded by the poison, turning into a pool of viscous black water that emitted a pungent, fishy stench.
Using the momentum of the roll, Lu Wushuang braced herself with one hand and twisted her legs like scissors towards Bai Yulang's lower body.
Bai Yulang's eyelids twitched wildly.
These two women, one ruthless with a knife, the other with sharp eyes.
Moreover, Yang Guo, who truly commands the scene, has yet to draw his sword.
He knew in his heart that if this dragged on, Lu Wushuang would gradually wear down his spirit.
When disciples of White Camel Mountain spar, the greatest taboo is having their footwork read.
Once the footwork is broken, the poison needles lose their accuracy.
If he, as the direct descendant of the prestigious White Camel Mountain, cannot even win over a maid, he will surely become a laughing stock when the news returns to the Western Regions.
A ruthless glint flashed in Bai Yulang's eyes, and his left hand swiftly reached into his sleeve, where three oil paper packets were already between his fingers.
He suddenly activated his inner energy, and the oil paper package instantly shattered.
Cheng Yingjiao shouted, "Hold your breath and step back three feet!"
Upon hearing this, Lu Wushuang withdrew without hesitation.
The oil paper package scattered in the air, and the green powder fell to the ground.
As soon as the powder touched several half-dead Bosochus snakes, their bodies suddenly tensed up.
This green powder is made from the body fluids of hundreds of poisonous insects and disperses when exposed to wind.
The poisonous powder fell into the soil, instantly turning the surrounding moisture a ghastly green.
The Bosqu snake is a venom-resistant species, but after being exposed to this green powder, its scales quickly rotted, and after a few twitches, it died completely.
Lu Wushuang held his breath and retreated, using the tip of his blade to pick up a piece of gravel and smash it into the poisonous mist in front of him.
The gravel, carried by a strong wind, tore through the green mist, creating a passage.
Lu Wushuang retreated three feet away, holding his sword horizontally to guard the entrance.
What Bai Yulang was waiting for was this retreat.
He lightly touched the ground with his toes and his figure passed Lu Wushuang like a phantom.
The short sword swiftly thrust out, grazing the forearm. The blade gleamed with a faint blue light, and the edge was marked with fine blood grooves. It was none other than the White Camel Mountain's Pulse-Breaking Poison Sword.
This sword is specifically designed to break through a person's protective inner energy. If an ordinary martial artist's skin is cut open, the poison will travel along the meridians straight into their dantian, and they will be forced to kneel down and beg for mercy within half a cup of tea.
However, Bai Yulang's target was not Lu Wushuang at all.
He pointed directly at Cheng Ying, who was holding the inner core of the snake king!
This inner elixir is the most yang and hot substance in the world. For those who cultivate poisonous arts, it is both a deadly poison and an unparalleled holy medicine for breaking through bottlenecks.
Throughout history, all the owners of White Camel Mountain have suffered from the torment of cold poison due to their practice of poisonous arts.
If this item can be offered to the master and refined into a pill using secret methods, it can neutralize the cold poison that has accumulated in the body for many years.
He could tell that Cheng Ying's internal energy was unstable at the moment. As long as he seized the inner core and used the poisonous mist as cover, he could escape unscathed.
The short sword pierced the air with a shrill whistle, aimed directly at Cheng Ying's throat!
