The flying axe cut the body of a night-walking ghost soldier in two from bottom to top, and then the flying axe flew back from top to bottom with a whistling sound. A thin figure suddenly jumped out from behind a stone tablet, grabbed the handle of the flying axe in the air, and stood steadily on the top of the stone tablet. He looked coldly at the night-walking ghost soldiers rushing over, and roared in a sharp voice, "What are you going to do? Does the Ghost King want to rebel..."
The man who had just killed a master of the Night Ghost Army with a flying giant axe was very thin, just like a child of eleven or twelve years old, and felt like a dwarf. He was only a little over one meter tall, but he looked quite old. His face was full of wrinkles, his hair was full of silver, and his mouth was full of buck teeth. He looked extremely ugly and had a violent expression. He was just an old man. What was impressive was the giant axe he was holding, which weighed at least two or three hundred kilograms, almost as much as his height. Such a short man, holding such a giant axe in his hand, standing on a stone tablet in the wind and snow, was itself extremely visually impactful.
Just now, this person was able to completely hide behind a stone tablet because of his thin body, and instantly killed the master of the Night Ghost Army who crossed the stone tablet...
“Guan Tiesheng, the Holy Lord has ordered us to capture the rebels of the Holy Church. Considering that you are the Axe King Kong, one of the Eight Great King Kongs of the Holy Church, and are also my colleague, and have made many contributions to the Holy Church over the years, as long as you turn from evil to good and join us in capturing the rebels, the Holy Lord will definitely show mercy to you…” The two people that Yan Liqiang had just followed suddenly jumped to the front, standing on the stone tablet several feet away on the left and right sides of the strange old man holding the giant axe, and attacked the old man from the left and right.
The two people that Yan Liqiang was following, one was a middle-aged scholar in green clothes, holding a black folding fan, and the other was a bald man who untied a long whip from his waist and used the folding fan and the long whip to attack the old man holding the giant axe - the one who spoke was the one holding the whip.
"Bah, Situ Fei, Lu Tianxing, you two still have the nerve to say the word 'Holy Lord'? You are the ones who betrayed the Holy Church!" The old man holding the giant axe cursed loudly, pointing the axe at the man holding the fan a few feet away, spitting and cursing, "You two were as obedient as dogs in front of the Holy Lord back then, and you wanted to lick the soles of the Holy Lord's shoes. Now that the Holy Lord has just passed away, you have turned to rebellion and hunted down the Holy Maiden. Before the Holy Lord passed away in the White Lotus Cave, he had already issued a decree in public, passing the Holy Church's treasure to the Holy Maiden instead of that demon. You all know what this means. Now that the demon has usurped the throne, you dare to hunt down the Holy Maiden. You are traitors, Situ Fei, have you forgotten that year when you were possessed by the devil and it was the Holy Lord who saved you? This is how you repay the Holy Lord..."
"Don't waste time talking to him. He's stalling for time to call the police in the City God Temple..." The man holding the whip hadn't spoken yet, but the man holding the fan on the other side had already spoken. He then turned to the several masters of the Night Walk Ghost Army wearing ghost masks and said, "The two of us will hold him back, and you guys quickly rush to the City God Temple. Don't let the real culprit get away. When the Ghost King arrives, it will be a great achievement..."
The night-walking ghost soldiers nearby heard this and rushed towards the City God Temple in the distance without hesitation. Just as the old man holding the giant axe was about to move, a sharp sound of breaking through the air came in front of him. He jumped up at once, and the stone tablet under his feet was smashed to pieces by the bald man holding the whip...
The old man with the giant axe roared, and while still in the air, he swung the giant axe in his hand towards the scholar with the fan. The giant axe whistled, cutting through the wind and snow, as fast as lightning, and in the blink of an eye it was in front of the scholar with the fan. The scholar with the fan seemed to know the power of the flying giant axe, and did not easily confront it. Instead, his body flashed, and in the nick of time, his body was like a snake, clinging to the ground, and he passed under the giant axe. He swung the fan in his hand, and a strong wind cut towards the neck of the old man with the giant axe. The old man did not hesitate, and punched directly, the wind of the fist was as fierce as fire, and the old man's thin body seemed to be on fire, and the snowflakes floating in the air in front of his fist were evaporated into water vapor in an instant...
The bald man holding the long whip wanted to attack, but the flying axe had already turned in the air and cut towards his legs. The long whip hit the axe with a whirring sound, and the axe suddenly became faster and spun towards him like a spinning top...
The giant axe finally flew past the bald man's feet and landed in the hands of the weird old man. In the blink of an eye, the three men started a fierce battle in the forest of steles, while most of the Night Walk Ghost Army had already rushed into the City God Temple...
Yan Liqiang, who was not far away, was stunned when he heard the conversation between the three people. Guan Tiesheng, Situ Fei and Lu Tianxing were the backbones of the White Lotus Sect who were wanted by the court. They were three of the Eight Vajras. Guan Tiesheng's weapon was a giant axe, and his nickname in the martial arts world was Axe Vajra. Situ Fei and Lu Tianxing were Fan Vajra and Whip Vajra respectively, both of them were tough characters.
Why are the people from the White Lotus Sect fighting each other? Yan Liqiang was filled with surprise. From what he just heard about the conversation between those two people, it seemed that there was a story behind it. It seemed that something big had happened inside the White Lotus Sect, and there was an internal conflict.
The battle here was in full swing, and over there in the pine forest behind the City God Temple, there was a fierce sound of weapons clashing. It seemed that the Night Walker Ghost Army had already engaged the person they were looking for...
Yan Liqiang hesitated for a moment, then jumped up from the tall pine tree, bypassed the forest of steles where the three Vajras were fighting in front, and approached the pine forest behind the City God Temple from the other side of the Yuhua Pavilion where the sound of weapons clashing came from.
A large number of night-walking ghost soldiers surrounded two people in the pine forest and were attacking them fiercely...
The two people who were surrounded were both women, judging from their clothes. One of them was in her thirties, with a hot body, dressed in red, and holding a pair of hooks in her hands. When Yan Liqiang arrived, he saw the woman in red using the hooks to hook the head of a night ghost soldier from his neck, with blood spilling all over the snow.
The other woman was dressed in white, with a white scarf on her face. She was wielding a long sword in her hand. The sword light was as sharp as silk...
"Miss, hurry up, otherwise we won't be able to leave once the Ghost King comes..." The woman holding the double hooks said loudly and anxiously while fighting fiercely with the night ghost army.
The woman holding the long sword said nothing, but just flashed the sword and directly cut off an arm of a Night Ghost Army master.
Even though he lost one hand, the master of the Night Ghost Army just groaned and continued to pounce.
Looking at the woman holding the sword, Yan Liqiang was stunned again. Even though the woman had a veil on her face, Yan Liqiang recognized her identity just by looking at her figure. That woman was an "acquaintance" Yan Liqiang once knew - the fairy sword Hua Ruxue!
