169 The Mountain God Temple at Nigh (1/2)

Ripped from its hinge, the door was crashed open and four people rushed in like the whirlwind, standing firmly before the Sword General.

They looked almost the same, all ugly and ferocious. They all carried nothing in their hands.

”It's too late for you guys to run now.” The one standing at the far left laughed wickedly.

”That's because we've arrived,” the one next to him continued.

”With us around, you'll definitely die,” the third person stressed.

”So it means nothing whether you run or not.” The person on the far right arrogantly sized up Meng Qi and his companions.

Meng Qi was holding the sword hilt of Ice Palace Sword and eyeing the sword point intently as if nothing else could attract his attention. On the other hand, Lu Zhongqi continually retreated and insensibly hid behind him. Taoist Hu closely guarded Lu Guan and glanced at Meng Qi subconsciously. With willful blindness, Ruan Yushu gently played the zither.

Looking at the corpse of the Sword General, the newcomer on the far right said, ”He's dead.”

”He died because his Kung Fu wasn't good enough,” the second person on the right added.

”We won't die because our martial arts are better than him,” the second person on the left said.

”Absolutely, you'll die!” The left-most person viciously stared at Meng Qi and others.

Strangely, they always stood in a semi-circle and spoke in a certain order.

As Lu Zhongqi and Taoist Hu had expected, Meng Qi stood up with the Long Sword in his hands. He neither moved too quickly nor slowly as if the four men before him were nothing but clay chickens and pottery dogs.

”Is Evil Prince here?” Meng Qi asked, staring at his sword.

”The Master isn't here,” the eldest of the Four Villains of the Zheng Family on the far left answered.

”Because there's no need for him to come,” the second person on the left explained.

”You all aren't worthy to contest with him,” the second one on the right expressed with great reverence.

”We're more than enough to deal with you!” The youngest on the far left side was very proud.

Meng Qi looked up, inclining his sword, and said indifferently, ”What a pity. No one will be around to carry away your bodies.”

He spoke matter-of-factly. Lu Guan, Lu Zhongqi, and Taoist Hu shared the same confidence after witnessing how easily he killed the Sword General. However, when they recalled the infamy of Four Villains of the Zheng Family, they began to feel ill at ease.

”That won't be necessary.” The second youngest on the right snorted.

”We'll definitely win.” The second person on the right lifted his palms and posed to fight.

”You're the ones who need someone to collect your bodies,” the second one on the right retorted sarcastically.

”Too bad you don't have one.” The eldest on the left side stepped ahead. The four of them appeared like one being. They placed their palms up in an identical row, like an inescapable trap without any flaws.

With a voice like spring thunder, Meng Qi spoke up.

”Flurry!”

The sounds of Ruan Yushu's tweedle suddenly turned ear-splittingly jarring and harmonized with Meng Qi's roar, cutting deep into everyone.

The Four Villains of the Zheng Family felt their ears buzzing and they could no longer hear any sound. They became dizzy and their reactions slowed. If not for their strong inner force, they would be instantly stupefied.

Seizing the opportunity, Meng Qi went up to them and brandished his sword to demonstrate his ”Arrow-breaking Move”.

”Ah!”

Shrill cries came out of the Four Villains of the Zheng Family almost simultaneously. Though their eyes were closed, blood and other liquids were trickling down their faces.

Now blinded, all of them waved and moved at random. It made for an incredibly chaotic scene.

His body bending, Meng Qi charged at them and waved his sword four times. He then proudly straightened up with his sword sheathed.

The Four Villains of the Zheng Family thudded on the floor one by one. They were all killed with by identical sword cuts to their throats. If someone saw this, perhaps they would think this was a corpse accompanied by his three shadows.

Three moves. It took only three moves to kill the shocking and atrocious Four Brothers of the Zheng Family. From the start to the end, they basically had no chance to fight back.

Taoist Hu thought the cumulative of all the shocks he had experienced in his life could not be compared to what he felt today. Everything felt like a dream.

Since when had the Sword General and the Four Villains of the Zheng Family that he could only dream of became so ordinary? They were so defenseless in the face of Little Meng's attacks.

The brothers were said to be comparable to Moon-bathing Taoist, the Demon King, when they worked together. If so, what did that say about Little Meng with his single sword?

He and Lu Zhongqi both had completely changed what they thought about Meng Qi. No matter how unbelievable it was, it was undeniable. The young man before them could well be the future ”Sword Emperor”! His importance might even be on par with Devil Empress and Prime Maester!

Meng Qi turned and walked back to the fire. He gently nodded in acknowledgment of Lu Guan's gratitude and was silent as usual.

To be honest, they did not die because his Thundering scream was so powerful. Nor was it because Ruan Yushu's tweedle doubled the lethality of his attack. The truth was the Four Villains of the Zheng Family could only be considered as a true master as a team. If they fought against the Thundering scream and tweedle alone, they would only a little better than Du Wuchang. If it came to masters at the level of Demon King and Evil Prince, the Thundering scream could only make them dizzy and momentarily stunned, resulting in them losing the opportunity to attack.

Once they became dizzy, they would not be able to the team up for the moment. That sealed the fate of the Four Villains of the Zheng Family.
