Chapter 24: The Arrival of Yellow Heaven
Mei Ren’s fists were too hard, and his will was also very firm.
When the Questioning Heart Hammer strikes someone with a weak will, it will hammer the will first and then the body. But Mei Ren’s will was firm, like a cold and ruthless wind, and his cultivation level was higher than Jiang Ning’s!
Jiang Ning was simply no match for him.
Originally, Jiang Ning had the thought of running away with Hua Xiaomei and Huang Wufeng, but when she heard Hua Xiaomei mention adding more money, her fighting spirit was rekindled.
Fortune favors the bold. With half of the Three Talents Manor’s income, she could do a lot of things!
This life was worth risking!
She gritted her teeth and forced herself to swing her lightning-clad fists, clashing with Mei Ren’s Black Wind Energy. Storms and lightning intertwined in their battle, illuminating the sky like thunderclouds in a storm.
Thunder and lightning occasionally struck near them, but neither of them cared. They only wanted to kill each other!
At this moment, the sky turned yellow.
A beam of yellow light drifted from the northeast, dyeing the entire sky a yellow ochre color.
Shi Feizhe was very familiar with this “Yellow Heaven.” It was the “Yellow Heaven” of Sun Daoren from Yiyang City. He had been watching it for two months in Yiyang City and couldn’t be mistaken.
“Mister Wang, even Sun Daoren has arrived. Should we run?” Shi Feizhe asked Mister Wang, who was adjusting his breath.
Mister Wang had told him earlier that if he saw the people from Three Talents Manor were losing, they should run immediately.
Now that even Sun Daoren from the Yellow Heaven Path had come to watch, what chance did they have at Three Talents Manor?
“We can’t run…” Mister Wang said with a bitter smile.
“How come…” Before Shi Feizhe could finish speaking, he suddenly felt difficulty breathing. His heart pounded, his face turned pale!
Seeing his condition, Mister Wang quickly transferred a breath of True Qi to protect his heart.
“What’s wrong with me?” Shi Feizhe felt as if his heart was about to jump out of his chest.
“Martial arts undergo a qualitative change when they reach the True Person Realm. True Person Realm experts can slightly release their aura, which affects the surrounding environment and makes ordinary people unbearable.” As Mister Wang spoke, he waved his hand, and it felt as if his hand was in water, encountering resistance.
“As for those who are not ordinary people, it’s even worse. Within the aura of a True Person Realm expert, the body will involuntarily resist this aura, causing a heavy burden on the body!” Mister Wang explained further.
“It feels like a True Person Realm expert fighting someone below the True Realm is like an adult hitting a child?” Shi Feizhe couldn’t help but say.
“It’s even simpler than that, like hitting an insect!” Mister Wang shook his head.
“So… what do we do?”
“Wait!”
“Wait for what?”
“Wait to die, or wait to live!”
With the arrival of Yellow Heaven, the wind stopped and the clouds dispersed. Only a vast expanse of Yellow Heaven completely enveloped the Three Talents Manor.
Mei Ren and Jiang Ning also stopped fighting. Both of them looked warily at a Daoist within the Yellow Heaven.
He wore a yellow linen robe, a thick hemp rope around his waist, straw sandals on his feet, and held a nine-sectioned bamboo staff in his broad hand. His hair was tied up with a straw stick as a hairpin, and he wore a triangular cloth on his forehead.
What was peculiar was his face. It was like that of an old farmer, reddish-black in color and full of wrinkles. Only his eyes shone with a brilliant light.
“Surrender and live, resist and die!” He said calmly to both sides of the Three Talents Manor.
“Hmph… our Demon Sect and your Yellow Heaven Path have no quarrel!” Mei Ren said. “This is an internal matter of our Demon Sect.”
“Exactly! The Yellow Heaven Path is so overbearing, my father will personally pay you a visit someday!” Hua Xiaomei also stood up at this moment, invoking his father’s name.
Sun Daoren glanced at Hua Xiaomei and still calmly said, “Under Yellow Heaven, I await him!”
✿✿✿
Hua Xiaomei’s forehead broke out in a cold sweat. This guy didn’t give his father any face. With his father’s personality, even if his son was beaten to death outside, he wouldn’t even ask.
If there was anyone Hua Xiaomei was most afraid of, it was definitely his father! It wasn’t just him; the entire Hua family feared his father!
Seeing that this group of people seemed unwilling to surrender, Sun Daoren raised his nine-sectioned bamboo staff, about to strike.
If this staff struck down, whether it was Mei Ren, Jiang Ning, Hua Xiaomei, or the Black Wind Guard, they would all be dead beyond recognition!
“Meow!” A cat’s meow echoed throughout the Three Talents Manor.
A grey tabby cat leaped gracefully, jumping from the rooftop to the sky, landing in front of Sun Daoren.
“So it’s Cat Venerable!” Sun Daoren actually recognized this cat. He bowed and said, “I didn’t expect Cat Venerable to be here as well!”
In the thatched shed, Mister Wang saw the appearance of the large cat and finally breathed a sigh of relief, saying, “We’re saved!”
Shi Feizhe watched in shock as the large cat blocked Sun Daoren, who even bowed to the cat. He said, “This cat is so strong!”
“What cat! That’s Cat Venerable! Thank Cat Venerable for saving our lives!” Mister Wang patted Shi Feizhe’s head and said.
“Meow!” Master Cat meowed again, stroking his whiskers with his paw.
Sun Daoren fell silent. He slowly extended his right hand towards Master Cat, and Master Cat also extended a paw towards him.
The moment the hand and paw touched, Shi Feizhe saw a flash of light that almost blinded him. Then, a huge wave of energy burst from the point of contact between the man and the cat, lifting the thatched shed above his head!
Even the “Yellow Heaven” had a huge mark on it, as if someone had slashed it with a knife.
“Cat Venerable is truly extraordinary! I admire you!” Sun Daoren exclaimed, then said to Mei Ren, Jiang Ning, Zhan Yunfan, Hua Xiaomei, and the others, “You people can leave, the Three Talents Manor now belongs to Yiyang City!”
“Cat Venerable!” Jiang Ning and Mei Ren asked Master Cat simultaneously.
“Meow!” Master Cat responded to them with dissatisfaction, giving them a look.
The meaning was clear: I’ve already saved your lives, what more do you want?
Seeing Master Cat’s look, they had no choice. They glanced at each other and could only gather their people.
Mei Ren first gathered the Black Wind Guard. Out of the twenty-five Black Wind Guards, one had died and several were injured! Originally, this loss would have been acceptable if he had captured the Three Talents Manor. But he had gained nothing, and he felt quite uncomfortable.
Fortunately, Zhan Yunfan transmitted a message to him, smoothing his furrowed brows. After they counted their numbers, they left the Three Talents Manor!
Hua Xiaomei also gathered the people from the Three Talents Manor. Only seven or eight lucky ones had hidden and survived, including Shi Feizhe and Mister Wang.
Shi Feizhe looked sadly at the vast Three Talents Manor. Originally there were over a hundred people, but now only a few of them remained. Zhan Ming, Zhang Lianglong, Wang Chengfeng, they were all dead!
This was the Jianghu; no one knew when disaster would strike!
Dying without reason!
“Little brother, you’re really lucky!” Hua Xiaomei said, seeing Shi Feizhe. He hadn’t expected Shi Feizhe to survive.
It was a pity that Shi Feizhe had just started practicing martial arts. If he had cultivated True Qi, he could have consumed this Grand Medicine to heal his injuries!
The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the “Yellow” oriole behind!
