Martial Arts Crossover: It All Started with Hijacking Li Canghai

Shan Meijing did not expect Shen Luoyan to make a move. She instinctively raised her long sword to try and deflect the fan, but as soon as the two forces collided, she realized something was wrong.

The force transmitted through the fan exceeded her expectations.

Amidst the sound of wind breaking, the white feather fan brushed past Shan Meijing's waist.

The fan blade failed to touch her skin, but neatly sliced ​​off a piece of her skirt.

Shan Meijing felt a chill run down her spine and quickly stepped back to create distance; she was just a hair's breadth away from losing a piece of flesh.

"mean!"

She assumed it was Shen Luoyan's unexpected move and swept her sword across with a powerful gust of wind.

The four protectors, Shan Xiu, Shan Yudie, Shan Qing, and Shan Ruyin, followed suit and took action. The four of them positioned themselves in coordination to block the central retreat route, and their weapons approached from four different angles.

Shen Luoyan's expression remained unchanged.

Over the years of struggling in Wagangzhai, she had experienced numerous encirclements and annihilations. If it weren't for buying time for Li Mi, how could Yuwen Chengdu have captured her?

Yuwen Chengdu was a young master who was just one step away from becoming a grandmaster.

Their teamwork was flawless, yet a slight opening was still left between their alternating moves.

Shan Xiu's curved blade came within half a foot of his face.

Shen Luoyan then bent over and leaned back, landing in a "bridge" position.

The blade grazed the edge of his cheek.

She tightened her waist and abdomen and used the backward posture to straighten her upper body again. Her right palm flipped and struck Shan Xiu's chest.

A dull thud echoed.

Shan Xiu had no time to stop her attack and defend herself. She was thrown back several feet and crashed into the wooden planks on the side of the ship, creating a hole.

Dan Qing caught a glimpse of this scene, and his expression instantly turned cold.

"Sister Xiu!"

Shen Luoyan did not stop moving.

The soft sword in Shan Yudie's hand advanced from the right, its blade swaying, deliberately following a pattern of entangling weapons.

Shen Luoyan didn't even look, and casually snapped her two right fingers together behind her.

His finger landed squarely on the middle of the soft sword!

The true energy flowed directly through the spine of the sword.

Shan Yudie's tiger's mouth trembled and went numb, her entire right arm shook uncontrollably, and the sword hilt slid through her palm a few times, almost causing her to lose her grip.

Her face turned stiff.

"Innate true qi, an innate master? How is this possible...?"

Shen Luoyan had already changed her footwork and attacked the other two.

Seeing that the protector was suffering repeated losses, Shan Meijing immediately stepped forward with her sword to fill the gap, and together with Shan Qing and Shan Ruyin, they formed a three-person attack stance.

The three stood in a triangle, their longswords all aimed at Shen Luoyan.

Shan Meijing let out a low shout.

"Let's get started!"

The three of them attacked simultaneously.

The longsword, carrying a stream of air, thrust out from different directions, sealing off Shen Luoyan from the front, back, left, and right.

Normally, when faced with such a pincer attack, one can only block it head-on or retreat, but Shen Luoyan used a different approach.

She lowered her center of gravity by sinking her knees, reached out with her left hand to grab the thick cable at the bottom of the boat, and her body flew off the ground at an angle due to the taut tension of the cable.

Three sword strikes landed on the deck where she had been standing!

Using the pulling force, Shen Luoyan turned back in mid-air, landing in the blind spot behind and to the side of Shan Meijing.

Shan Meijing was shocked!

However, they were a little slow in turning around.

Shen Luoyan pinched the other person's wrist where they were holding the sword with her fingers, and her internal energy flowed into them through the point of contact.

Shan Meijing felt a sharp pain in her forearm, and the longsword clattered to the ground!

Dan Meijing lost her balance and fell backward, crossing the water and landing back on the Dongming Sect's main ship. Her body rubbed against the wooden planks for a long distance before coming to a stop.

Shan Meixian quickly ran from the bow of the boat to pull her daughter up and reached out to check her pulse by pressing her hand against her back.

He breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that the internal organs had not been significantly damaged by the internal force.

She looked at Shen Luoyan, who had already stopped and stood still opposite her.

Shen Luoyan's martial arts skills far exceed what the intelligence reports indicate. Rumors say she is inclined towards strategy and scheming, but her current performance in actual combat is flawless.

Shan Xiu managed to get up from the edge of the side panel.

He wiped the bloodstains from the corner of his mouth with the back of his hand, then turned his gaze to Shan Yudie beside him. Both of them looked somewhat uneasy.

The five men joined forces to surround and block them, but were defeated one by one. This time, the situation was really not good.

Shen Luoyan stood in the passageway connecting the two ships.

"Madam Shan, listen to my advice: instead of cooperating with Li Mi's fleeing army, you should seek refuge with my lord."

My King Qin is currently in dire need of capable men, and my wife is a maritime merchant who travels to various countries. Wouldn't it be safer with my King's protection?

Shan Meixian remained silent.

She had invested most of her fortune in this transaction, and if she were to give up the ship so easily, she would not be able to explain it to the clan elders when she returned to Ryukyu.

Most importantly, over the years, she has traveled all over the country and many powerful and influential people have tried to take advantage of her and her daughter.

Rumor has it that the King of Qin was extremely lustful, and that he and his daughter were the epitome of beauty in the eyes of such men…

Shan Meixian's face turned red and white, her expression unpredictable, and she still wanted to struggle.

"The four generals stepped forward."

A heavy thud came from the inside of the hatch.

Four burly men walked onto the deck one after another. They were much taller than the others, and their thick arm muscles were clearly defined.

The leader was shirtless, his chest and back covered in sea serpent tattoos, and his rough right hand held a heavy weapon made from a modified iron anchor.

All the Ryukyu military commanders appeared.

Shen Luoyan's expression turned serious. This Shan Meixian really wouldn't shed a tear until she saw the coffin.

He sized up the group, noting that the three shorter men possessed profound internal strength, while the burly leader's breathing was steady and restrained, indicating an even more solid level of skill.

Shan Meixian raised her hand and waved it forward.

"Shen Luoyan! Since you are working for the King of Qin, then let's rely on our own abilities. I would rather die than suffer your insults."

Shen Luoyan raised a brow, wondering if this woman was thinking something inappropriate.

Just as he was thinking this, the four generals opposite him simultaneously exerted their strength to stomp on the ground.

The wooden planks beneath their feet shattered, and the four of them used the recoil to skim across the water and charge toward the other side.

The leader, a burly man named Shang Bang, wielded a nine-ringed broadsword, employing the "Raging Sea Blade Technique" with its sweeping and powerful movements.

The swinging of weapons created strong air currents.

Shen Luoyan frowned and turned her body to avoid being in front of her.

The broadsword struck the passageway below, instantly shattering several inches of wood!

The second general, Shang Kuiyi, wielded a long spear called the "Sea-Breaking Spear," which possessed fierce power and extremely strong armor-piercing ability.

The other two attacked from both sides, with Shang Ren wielding double axes and Shang Wannian wielding double hooks!

Shen Luoyan had no weapon at this moment. She took several steps back and used her inner energy to forcefully block the broadsword's slash. The moment they made contact, her tiger's mouth throbbed with pain.

The opposing brutes were incredibly strong.

She secretly blamed herself for being too arrogant earlier.

If he had a sword in his hand, he could easily deal with the situation using his swordsmanship. But if he tried to fight against this kind of man who only relied on his bare hands, he would only be in a passive situation of fighting with his physical strength.

If it happens a few more times, she definitely won't be able to handle it.

Li Jing had seen enough by then. This woman was skilled but arrogant, though her combat experience was somewhat lacking.

Battles on the battlefield are not something one person can handle alone.

He slowly raised his right hand.

The iron protective plates on the sides of the warship were all pulled off.

Rows of dark, gaping cannon muzzles were exposed, with sparks already flying from the fuses.

"Madam Shan, I will give you one last chance to choose."

"Surrender, or be drowned!"
