Extraordinary Martial Arts: The Living Yama of the Mortal World!

Chapter 49 Heavenly Profound Meridian Intercepting Finger!

Yang Yi felt his arm holding the knife go numb, and the long knife slipped from his hand, was kicked away by Zhao An, and landed directly on the roof beam.

Zhao An pointed again, unleashing the Pulse-Severing Finger!

Yang Yigang tried to circulate his internal energy, but with this finger strike, he felt his meridians suddenly blockage and his circulation of energy disrupted.

He caught his breath, and his internal energy became disordered, causing his face to turn red instantly, and he couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood.

"You!" Yang Yi was shocked. He didn't know what kind of method Zhao An had used to interfere with his internal energy circulation without making a sound!

"The outcome is decided!" Seeing that his opponent had been injured by his internal energy, Zhao An changed his moves again, seamlessly connecting with the Silver Snake Hand.

Reaching out like a claw, it was as if a giant python had opened its mouth and bit down on the other's neck, tearing the throat bone off!

It should be noted that Zhao An's hands are the result of both physical training and finger technique cultivation.

In addition, with the Gale Palm, Mountain-Splitting Fist, and Silver Snake Hand, his three fist and palm skills have all been perfected, truly honed through countless trials.

His five fingers are as strong as steel bars, and his finger strength is astonishing!

For him, tearing and crushing the other person's throat bones was no different than breaking a rubber band!

Yang Yi's face was covered with several knife scars, which looked extremely ugly. He covered his neck with both hands, his expression incredulous, and he fell straight to the ground, quickly losing his breath.

Zhao An lightly touched the ground with his toes, picked up the knife, and then strode towards Zhao Ke.

Zhao Ke was so frightened that his legs went weak. He never expected that Zhao An would be able to kill the third leader of Black Wind Stronghold.

"How...how is this possible..."

"Brother, An-di, I..." Zhao Ke was about to beg for mercy, but before he could finish speaking, a flash of light appeared, and then his vision began to spin.

Heads rolled!

Zhao An didn't bother to listen to a single word.

He never acknowledged the other party's identity as his blood elder brother.

If the other party doesn't cause trouble, he won't pay much attention to them.

You just had to provoke him time and time again; tonight he won't let him live.

Inside the house, Lu Yixiu and Gao Baoding, the two constables, were still searching for valuables.

At first, when they saw Zhao An return, they didn't pay much attention and didn't think that Zhao An could deal with Yang Yi.

They felt that Zhao An would soon follow suit and submit to Black Wind Stronghold, just like them.

However, with Yang Yi's sudden death and Zhao Ke's head being cut off, the two of them finally realized the danger.

"Run!"

Lu Yixiu decisively climbed out the window to escape.

But the next moment, a flying blade pierced through his body.

Gao Baoding, who had just climbed out of the window, was so frightened that he almost wet his pants on the spot. He immediately knelt down and kowtowed, begging Zhao An for mercy.

"I was forced into this situation..."

Zhao An glanced at the red name above his head, and without saying a word, he finished him off with a single strike.

Words may still deceive, but the name on one's head will not.

These constables who enforced the law in the outer city were all bad people, so their deaths were not unjust.

Even if they don't break into this courtyard today, he won't let these red-named constables off the hook another day.

After all, there aren't many red-named martial artists in the outer city.

"My lord, you, this..." The coachman who was supposed to leave stood trembling at the door, witnessing Zhao An's final slaughter, and was at a loss for what to do.

"Please inform the magistrate that there are remnants of Black Wind Stronghold, and also news about the Moon People," Zhao An said to the coachman at the magistrate's residence, holding his blood-stained knife.

"Yes, yes!" the driver quickly replied and hurried away.

Zhao An had no intention of hiding what happened tonight.

Although he killed several constables, these guys had already colluded with Black Wind Stronghold and even sided with the enemy Moon Clan in the west, which was already unforgivable.

He killed him, which was not wrong at all; on the contrary, it was a meritorious act.

As for the matters behind Black Wind Stronghold, he didn't intend to get involved; he'd leave it all to that county magistrate to worry about.

An hour later, the clamor of horses' hooves came quickly.

A troop of soldiers from the county magistrate's office quickly poured in, almost filling the already small courtyard.

The torches illuminated the courtyard brightly.

Then Tao Heng, dressed in plain clothes, stepped down from the carriage.

"Zhao An, what exactly happened?" Tao Heng asked immediately, looking at the mess and corpses in the courtyard.

Zhao An told the truth.

Upon hearing that the man was the third leader of Black Wind Stronghold, a guard standing beside Tao Heng immediately frowned and stepped forward to examine the corpse. His expression then turned somewhat grim.

"Jin Er, didn't you say you had slaughtered those bandit leaders? Then what is this corpse?!" Tao Heng questioned in a deep voice, his tone displeased.

"It was my oversight. That day when we went up the mountain to suppress the bandits, perhaps they used a trick to escape." Tao Jin'er didn't argue and directly lowered his head to admit his mistake.

"Fortunately, Zhao An eliminated the threat today, but the remaining bandits are likely still hiding near the county seat. I order you to mobilize the county troops and conduct a thorough investigation immediately! No bandit leader should be let escape!"

Tao Heng did not punish him, but instead ordered that his guards be given a chance to redeem themselves through meritorious service.

"Yes, this time I will not make any mistakes!" Tao Jin'er solemnly replied.

"And what else do you want to tell me about the people of that moon?" Tao Heng continued to ask Zhao An.

Compared to the remnants of the mountain bandits, he was actually more concerned about the news of the Yue people.

That's why he came in person.

"It seems that the leader of Black Wind Stronghold is colluding with the Moon People from beyond the border, intending to seize the county and hand it over to the Moon Clan. If what the leader said is true, the worst-case scenario is that the Moon People's army will arrive in Lianjiang County soon," Zhao An said.

Upon hearing this, Tao Heng's face darkened.

"Zhao An, if only you could have spared his life..." Tao Heng sighed softly, looking at the bandit leader's corpse on the ground.

This matter is of great importance. If we could know more about the Lunarians' movements, that would be ideal.

Zhao An remained silent.

There was no way he could be spared alive. Right now, he was in dire need of high-quality soul slaves, so he couldn't let this bandit leader go.

"My lord, if the Moon People's army is coming, they can only come by water and land at Mangshui Bay, which is a key point of defense," Tao Jin said in a low voice.

Tao Heng shook his head.

"If the Moonkin army invades, this level of defense will be meaningless..."

"We'll talk about it when we get back."

Tao Heng came in a hurry and left just as quickly.

Before leaving, he specifically instructed Zhao An not to make a fuss about what happened tonight.

Zhao An agreed, but he knew in his heart that this matter was probably not over yet.

They killed the third leader of Black Wind Stronghold, and they reckon there are still two bandit leaders hiding in the shadows.

Especially the leader of Black Wind Stronghold, who calls himself the Black Wind King, is extremely powerful.

Tonight he has made an enemy of the Black Wind Stronghold, and there's no guarantee that the Black Wind King won't come after him in the future.

"With my current strength, I'm still not stable enough!" Zhao An thought to himself.

Cultivation is something that must not be neglected in the slightest!
