A man stands before the heavens, his sword emerges from the Emei Mountains.

Yang An was startled. He saw the other party raise his hand, but the distance was not far, and the hidden weapon came too fast for him to react.

The atmosphere of confrontation remained stagnant, but Chen Yu, guided by his will, quickly adjusted himself to his peak condition.

"Let's go," Tang Zhihu said hurriedly.

Xia Jingzhe's face was mocking. "Can you really leave? Don't even mention you three Emei disciples, even if Miejue came, it would be useless."

"Say it again if you dare."

A cold, heartless voice suddenly broke in; it was so familiar.

Chen Yu and Yang An were overjoyed, but before they could turn around, a crackling sound of wind raging behind them rang out. The rain curtain beside Chen Yu parted abruptly, and Miejue landed on the ground.

"Master."

"Senior brother."

A chaotic but enthusiastic murmur pierced through the rain as Ji Xiaofu, Bei Jinyi, Su Mengqing, and others swiftly arrived.

"Speak," Miejue said coldly, staring at Xia Jingzhe.

The vice leader of the Five Poisons Sect said, word by word, "So what if you, Miejue, come?"

With a sudden burst of strength, Miejue smashed through the dense icy rain, causing the water on the bluestone street to splash out like lotus flowers.

In an instant, Extinction's figure loomed large before Xia Jingzhe.

"Good timing."

Xia Jingzhe moved swiftly and stealthily, like a ghost, and thrust his right palm forward.

Bang!

The two palms struck each other, and a ripple of air mixed with rainwater spread out like a curtain. Miejue felt a cold palm force seeping into his meridians through the gaps in his Laogong acupoint, and his muscles and tendons went numb wherever it went.

Poisonous palm?

With the intention and energy of extinction combined, the powerful Nine Yang internal force, viewed from within the arm and using the Shenmen acupoint as a gate, blocked the cold palm force. Another surge of Nine Yang internal force rose from the dantian, circulating through the meridians. Suddenly, it erupted from the Quchi acupoint of the Hand Yangming Large Intestine Meridian, advancing like molten lava, forcefully forcing the poisonous palm force that was blocked between the two acupoints out of the Laogong acupoint.

It all happened in the blink of an eye. A loud thud echoed in the rain, like the shaking of a cloth bag. Xia Jingzhe felt a warm and gentle internal force directly pierce through his Poison Palm True Qi, surging towards the Sanyang Jiao Meridian of his hand like a plow sweeping across acupoints.

How could this thieving nun be so skilled? Xia Jingzhe touched the ground with her toes and used the force to float several feet away.

Only then did Miejue notice that the pale palm and fingers of the opponent that had attacked earlier had turned scarlet.

"Evil and poisonous skills are nothing more than this."

"It's too early to say."

Extinction snorted coldly, stepping on the Four Symbols and moving through the Six Directions, her figure transforming into a wisp of smoke, her Emei Snow-Piercing Cloud Palm descending upon her opponent like a shower of falling petals.

Ji Xiaofu, Bei Jinyi, Su Mengqing, and Yang Anxin moved swiftly, each landing in one of the four positions: Vermilion Bird, White Tiger, Black Tortoise, and Azure Dragon. Their sword light shone like flying flowers and emeralds, complementing each other and surrounding Bai Xilou and the other three.

Tang Zhihu, Master Ji, and the disciples of Emei Sect all rushed towards the Five Poisons Sect members.

"Come on, Ba Biao, let me see what you're capable of as the leader of the Five Poisons Sect."

"As you wish." Ba Biao's face turned fierce. He stomped his foot and punched with both fists. The wind and rain shattered where his fists passed.

Chen Yu raised his arms and elbows, his palms pushing like mountains, faintly accompanied by the sound of wind and thunder. This was the "Wind and Thunder Hand" he had obtained from the stone cave in Qingcheng Mountain.

Bah!

With a muffled thud, the rainwater accumulated around Chen Yu burst open like arrows. Ba Biao felt a jolt in his arm, and hot internal energy flowed upwards along his meridians. His blood and qi surged, his face turned red, and he took a half step back.

Ba Biao was greatly surprised. Back in Ziyun Village, his opponent relied on the advantage of the sword, and in terms of skill, he was far inferior to him. How could it be that in less than two years, the opponent had undergone a complete transformation and was no less than him?

How is that possible?

Ba Biao was truly experienced in combat. Before the thought had even faded, his body suddenly sank, landing on his abdomen. His legs swung like scorpion tails, his body sliding through the rain, his venomous legs slapping down towards Chen Yu's shoulder.

Chen Yu suddenly separated his left and right hands, using the "Parting the Clouds to See the Sun" move from the Emei "Snowflakes Piercing the Clouds Palm" to launch a left and right attack, his right foot suddenly rising and kicking.

bang...

A magnificent curtain of water bloomed from Ba Biao's chest.

His burly, muscular body flipped over in the air and crashed to the ground.

Chen Yu swayed his body, his movements swift as the wind, his palm shadows falling like snowflakes, striking Ba Biao with a mix of feints and real attacks.

Ba Biao suppressed the boiling blood and qi stirred up by Chen Yu's Heart-Piercing Kick, and his Black Dragon Spiral Pillar soared into the sky. His palm strikes were as fast as knives, fierce and ruthless. The two figures swirled together in an instant, shifting positions and exchanging dozens of blows amidst the crackling sounds of the energy surging.

Hu Babiao stretched his right arm horizontally to block Chen Yu's palm strike, while his left hand pinched together the five fingers, like a scorpion's tail, and stung the arm.

In the blink of an eye, Chen Yu lowered his right arm and swung it inward for a moment, then raised his arm swiftly like the "Phoenix Nodding" in spear techniques, and the Bajiquan elbow strike landed on Ba Biao's wide-open jaw.

The rain exploded and scattered, and Ba Biao's body flipped in the air and flew to the ground ten feet away. The moment he landed, he took a few steps back and flipped onto the roof.

As soon as Ba Biao landed, he suddenly felt the air around him pressing down with tremendous force. He looked up and saw Chen Yu, who had used the "Ape Somersault" technique to flip high and fast, bringing down the "Buddha's Light" technique.

After exchanging fifty or sixty moves with Xia Jingzhe, Miejue had gained the upper hand. She glanced at Chen Yu's battle and suddenly saw Chen Yu press down with a palm in mid-air. It was clearly just one palm, but it gave people the illusion that countless palm shadows were falling from the sky.

A flash of inspiration struck Miejue, as if she had captured a glimpse of the essence of the Emei Sect's unique martial arts technique.

Ba Biao felt that Chen Yu's palm strike was like a net from heaven and earth, impossible to avoid. He roared and pushed his palms into the air.

boom!

The roof collapsed beneath Ba Biao's feet, and he plummeted straight down.

The crossbeam broke, dust billowed, and the two landed one above the other.

Ba Biao punched Chen Yu straight in the chest. Chen Yu's right foot grounded, his body half-spinned, his left arm bent and turned sharply, and his palm came out from an impossible angle to wrap around the opponent's arm. His right hand then repeatedly elbowed and punched the chest.

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

The sound was like the beating of a drum, so loud that even the shopkeeper hiding in the corner felt a pain in his back teeth. Ba Biao took a step back, and Chen Yu followed with a step, each time striking the wooden wall once. The two of them, one in front and one behind, crashed into the wooden wall and onto the street.

Ba Biao was floating in the air like a sack when Chen Yu swung his elbow and struck his temple.

The continuous, drizzling rain suddenly stopped with a low, muffled thud, while Ba Biao's thick hair flew wildly in the air, and his head snapped to the side.

Chen Yu then lashed out with his right hand in mid-air with a cracking sound like a whip, delivering a "Overlord's Hard Reins" strike to the opponent's neck.

Click!

Before Ba Biao could even scream, his head was hanging from his shoulder.

Chen Yu turned and lunged at Cheng Guijia, who was fighting with the Emei disciples.

When the opponent used the Four Symbols Palm technique to fight Xia Jingzhe, her movements seemed soft but were actually powerful and heavy. Xia Jingzhe was shocked. How could a woman have such a fierce fighting style?

Hu Xia Jingzhe's body trembled, and as he threw a punch, his entire shoulder swayed, and his palm and body collided together with Miejue.

Extinction snorted coldly, her left palm sticking to the opponent's palm like cotton.

Xia Jingzhe's heart skipped a beat. The Poison Palm's true energy seemed to have vanished without a trace. He knew something was wrong and immediately withdrew his strength. Miejue raised her right arm, and the Snow-Piercing Cloud Palm landed on his chest.

Xia Jingzhe suddenly felt as if he had been struck by a hammer, his blood and qi surged, and his body flew backward, crashing through the wall and disappearing into a teahouse.

Extinction is a constant threat.

"Master, beware of the thief's hidden weapons."

Before Chen Yu's warning had even faded, a flash of cold light appeared, and six flying serpent cones whistled through the air as they struck at Extinction's head and chest.

Just moments before his extinction, his sleeves, soft as cotton, hardened like iron plates in an instant. He waved his hands, smashing away hidden weapons.

Xia Jingzhe walked through the hall, letting out a whistle.

……

Upon hearing the whistle, Cheng Guijia abandoned the Emei disciples and sped off. Chen Yu emerged from behind a shed, his legs swinging twice in mid-air before he suddenly flew several feet away to block their path.

"Ah!" Cheng Guijia thrust his longsword forward, but Chen Yu sidestepped and intercepted with his left hand, intertwining and entwining with the opponent's arm, still using the "Nine Intercepting Hand Techniques".

Cheng Guijia's longsword missed its mark, but Chen Yu pressed it down with his left elbow, causing it to deflect off his shoulder. Chen Yu then swung his right hand sharply to the side, and the sword landed on Cheng Guijia's arm with a crisp sound.

It's another case of "a tyrant forcibly breaking the reins."

Click.

Cheng Guijia's clothes were intact, but the bone under the skin of his right arm shattered like broken porcelain. His long sword flew out of his hand, and he was knocked to the ground, splashing rain everywhere.

Chen Yu kicked the opponent unconscious.

When he looked up, Xia Jingzhe and Bai Xilou were nowhere to be found, while more than ten members of the Five Poisons Sect were being driven toward the dock.
