Chapter 145: Chapter 111: The Black-clad Dharma King Arrives!

Gong Jiu turned her head to the people behind her and said, "Everyone, watch closely... Now, you are about to see the real deal..."

With a clang... a large door to the side opened, and Gong Jiu saw the wide-eyed astonishment of the crowd and became even more animated.

"I told you I wouldn’t lie to you! Look at how surprised you all are~~"

Surprised? Sui Yi gave a wry smile, it was more like horror.

But the next second, Gong Jiu heard a whoosh.

Flower Demon and the others raised their guns together!

The guns were pointed at her!

"Hey, you...."

Gong Jiu’s eyebrows tightened, and at a glance from Sui Yi, she quickly dodged to the side

Just then, the spot she had vacated was viciously struck by a long saber!

Whoosh!

The saber left a magnetic energy trail, cutting a sharp, three-meter-long mark on the ground.

At the entrance stood a tall, indifferent man in a simple black robe, with pale skin white as blood, a rigid expression, but extremely agile limbs.

With one slash of his saber, he significantly scared Flower Demon and the others.

Bang bang bang!

The sound of gunfire was dense!

Bullets were fired at close range, but the terrifying part was...

The saber light spun, and a swath of bullets were deflected back...

"Fuck!"

Bang bang bang!

People hit by the bullets fell down in the blink of an eye, three of them. Brother Ma and the others had to roll on the ground to dodge a disaster, and Sui Yi, bending her body, spun the Xiezhi Dagger in her hand, and the back of the blade clanged as it blocked a bullet.

The force was so strong, she was blown away, kicked against the wall to stabilize herself, "This must be the Dharma King that Ah Guna mentioned!"

Sui Yi’s words made everyone suddenly remember Ah Guna’s warnings from before, and they regretted not listening.

Back then, they thought Ah Guna was just trying to scare them, but now they realized he must have been warning them.

Well, it was too late for regrets.

"Gong Jiu, you’ve screwed us over this time!" Flower Demon yelled at Gong Jiu while shooting from behind a bookshelf.

"Whatever, Dharma King is there whether I brought you or not, you would have encountered him anyway!"

"Dammit!"

The Black-clad Dharma King had already stepped out from the cave entrance, with the excavated tunnel behind him. Sui Yi and the others focused on that entrance and suddenly burst forth at the same time!

Brother Ma and the others stopped their gunfire, and Sui Yi and the others rushed forward, their blades, whips, small knives, and daggers gleaming.

Bang bang bang!

Sui Yi, Gong Jiu, Flower Demon, Shen Di, Feng Sha, Zhang Wei, and Ah Hai were the seven best at close combat.

Brother Ma and his group were skilled with firearms, while Lin Feng and others were somewhat along for the ride.

Of course, Lin Feng was a doctor, and his strategic significance was very important.

"So amazing!"

Lin Feng, who was holding a gun at the side, saw Sui Yi and the others stalk the Black-clad Dharma King with such ferocity, and couldn’t help but be stunned.

Were these people still human? Their speed, their attack, they could totally blow any boxing king from the USA out of the water!

Brother Ma grinned, "There are many talented people in our great China! But among the younger generation, there aren’t many as formidable as this."

Having been with Gong Jiu for a long time, Brother Ma knew some things about her background and had a broader perspective; naturally, the young people he referred to were the three strongest in martial power—Gong Jiu, Flower Demon, and Sui Yi.

Of course, the most terrifying was still...

Brother Ma stared at Sui Yi.

Just what kind of person was this young lady?

Initially, he just thought she was an outsider compelled by Gong Jiu, one meant to be just a tagalong.

However...

Bang bang bang!

Feng Sha and several others were blown away, especially Feng Sha, who was already injured in the left arm, now reduced in combat effectiveness, was thrown against the wall, vomiting a large mouthful of blood.

And with Ah Hai and Zhang Wei, three people were instantly out of the fight.

The four women, led by Sui Yi, struggled to hold on...

"We can’t hold out!"

"Run?"

Sui Yi sidestepped, barely dodging a saber, her shoulder sliced open, stinging.

But she spun around, the Xiezhi Dagger in her hand executing the Whirling Blade Technique!

Swipe!!

The thrown dagger left a white mark on the chest of the Black-clad Dharma King, who paused momentarily, his deep eyes fixedly staring at Sui Yi, then swiftly moved toward Sui Yi to attack!

Kill the strongest one!

Kill Sui Yi!

Sui Yi quickly dodged to the side, "You guys get inside!"

Swipe!

No time for sentiment now!

Cohesion was needed!

Taking advantage of the moment, Flower Demon and the others slipped into the tunnel behind, while Brother Ma and the others immediately jumped from behind the bookshelves, retreating toward the tunnel while firing bullets at the Black-clad Dharma King to reduce the pressure on Sui Yi."

The best shooter was still Gong Jiu, who, leaning against the tunnel wall, fired several shots just as the Dharma King’s saber was about to strike Sui Yi’s vital parts, aiming for his arms or the back of his blade.

"Sui Yi, quick!"

"Damn, this ghostly thing is so powerful!"

Even under such dense gunfire, he could still completely block it with his saber... Gong Jiu felt that even martial arts films weren’t this impressive!

It must be a fantasy film, right!

Sui Yi feinted a move, slid her feet, and ran towards the tunnel...

But...

Bang!!

Sui Yi was pinned against the wall, the Xiezhi Dagger in front blocking the Dharma King’s saber.

The strength, the terrifying strength pushing down slowly, the edge of the blade was just a bit away from her neck...

The next second, it could sever her neck.

Sui Yi’s arms cracked ominously under the fierce competition of power.

Brother Ma and Gong Jiu both rushed straight out of the cave entrance, closely followed by the lash of Yaofei’s long whip, which was already hurtling towards the eye of the Black-clad Dharma King...

But by the time they arrived... snap!

Gong Jiu’s face changed, "Sui Yi!"

What was that noise?

It was... the sound of an arm breaking?

Sweat beaded on Sui Yi’s forehead, and with a clench of her teeth, a hot, blue glow surged from her palm...

It was dazzling.

She shouted lowly.

Boom!

The Black-clad Dharma King was knocked back.

Whoosh!

Sui Yi was supported by Gong Jiu, who immediately dashed into the cave. As soon as they stepped through the entrance, Gong Jiu quickly pressed a button on the side...

Clang!

As the door closed, Gong Jiu glaringly stared at the Black-clad Dharma King outside, watching him madly lunge forward... still roaring something...

Boom!

The door shut.

A moment after it closed.

At least seven people vomited blood,

because the Black-clad Dharma King was too strong; everyone who had gone up to him for close combat was injured,

especially...

Feng Sha clutched his arm, his face turning ashen, while Lin Feng quickly tended to his wound on the side.

Elsewhere, Sui Yi leaned against the wall, her originally pale face now even more wan and pale, her lightly pink lips now colorless. Her left hand dragging her right, she bit lightly on her teeth.

Gong Jiu, desperate and sweating more than Sui Yi, barely kept calm, "How are you?... Your hand, is it broken? Can I touch it?"

She feared that touching it might just shatter Sui Yi’s hand...

Hua Feiyao slapped her on the shoulder, "Look at you, so useless. Move aside, stop bothering, let me..." In such a moment, Hua Feiyao had more mettle than Gong Jiu, immediately squatting down and carefully touched Sui Yi’s right hand, being extremely cautious, lest she hurt Sui Yi’s hand...

"Does it hurt?"

"No," Sui Yi shook her head.

"How about this?"

"No,"

"Damn, are you bearing it all? Look how you’re sweating!" Hua Feiyao was dumbfounded, yet she also felt some sympathy.

After all, Sui Yi was a younger girl who had faced life and death with her on this path several times and had even taken great pains to save her before.

"Don’t bear it, tell me where it hurts, is it broken? Let me set the bone..."

Sui Yi stopped her, her lips curling into a faint smile, "I’ll do it myself."

"You yourself?" Hua Feiyao’s eyes widened in disbelief, her amber pupils shimmering.

All martial artists experienced fractures during their training and always needed someone else’s help to massage and set the bones.

It was rare for someone to set their own bones; after all, they couldn’t even handle the pain, let alone do it themselves.

And Sui Yi...

Without waiting for Gong Jiu and the others to object, Sui Yi had already covered her right hand, took a deep breath,

and twisted the bones in her hand a few times, then...

Snap!

The narrow pathway, which echoed loudly,

made everyone who heard it tremble.

Looking at Sui Yi, from start to finish, not a single sound.

"Strong! Really strong!" they praised from the bottom of their hearts.

Impressive...

Everyone truly admired her.

She was so tough!

Sui Yi had set her hand, but she did not tell the others that she had also broken a finger bone.

The pain was also from there.

She unnaturally moved her right hand, her index finger indeed painfully sharp.

"Let’s leave this place, as we can’t be sure if the Black-clad Dharma King will activate the mechanism,"

Just the thought of the incredibly forceful Black-clad Dharma King, even though he seemed numb and stone-like, who knew whether he would turn that knob, so it’s better to quickly leave this place.

As everyone moved, Sui Yi silently began to focus the Magnetic Sensation in her index finger’s bone.

To heal the bone, it looked like it would consume a lot of magnetic energy.

--------

An hour later.

The group passed through a narrow and deep corridor, moving very quietly — terrifyingly quiet, as if they wished they could all float...

Because this narrow corridor went straight ahead, with on either side...

Coffins standing upright against the wall.

Brother Ma rubbed his arms continuously.

His lips tightly pursed, he tugged at Feng Sha’s sleeve and murmured, "Hey bro, didn’t we just enter a group of rice dumplings?"

Feng Sha rolled his eyes at him, "Don’t talk nonsense! There are no zombies!"

Rice dumplings is another word for zombies.

Tomb Raiders use the former in place of the latter.

Gong Jiu silently gripped her gun, frowning, "It’s too bad we didn’t bring garlic, otherwise..."

Everyone listened and thought, uh, something seemed off.

"Zombies in China aren’t afraid of garlic; you’re talking about foreign vampires! Ignorance is scary!" Hua Feiyao scoffed.

Gong Jiu’s face fell, huffing, "Vampires are afraid of the cross, Chinese zombies are afraid of garlic.."

"Garlic? Afraid of bad breath?" Hua Feiyao retorted.

"Of course, like your bad breath,"

"Heh heh heh, well that’s good, but let me remind you, Miss Gong, Chinese zombie uncles really love that time of the month~~"

The color drained from Gong Jiu’s face.(To be continued. If you like this work, welcome to Qidian (qidian.com) to vote for recommended tickets and monthly tickets. Your support is my biggest motivation. Mobile users, please visit m.qidian.com to read.)
