"Bang!" Heimian's body fell heavily to the ground, blood immediately gushed out of his mouth and nose, and the severe pain from the chest hit by the palm force went straight to his limbs and bones, making his face pale in an instant. "Damn it!" He cursed secretly, pressed his chest with his hand, clenched his teeth, and endured the piercing pain. He slowly struggled to prop up his upper body, took a breath, and looked up nervously at the few people fighting not far away. He saw Huangpo, Lanhun, and Ziying fighting with a black-robed man in the sky above the lake. The three of them joined forces but were still at a disadvantage. The black-robed man forced them to only parry and had no ability to fight back. Seeing that the situation was critical and the battle was fierce, Heimian did not care about his serious injuries. He wiped the blood stains from his mouth and nose, climbed up from the ground, turned his palm, and turned into a sword, and rolled towards the black-robed man.
"Heimian, are you okay?" Lan Hun was delighted to see Heimian rejoin the battle, and asked him in between attacks.
Blackface endured the severe pain in his chest and pretended to be nonchalant, saying, "It's okay, I can handle a mere palm strike!" He stared at the man in black robes with strong anger in his eyes, "I was hit several times by this guy in Baihua Valley that day. I didn't expect that we would have a new grudge today!"
Lan Hun also put away his usual playful expression and snorted coldly, "Yes, enemies often meet on a narrow road. Today we have to settle the score with this evil dragon spirit for the day in Baihua Valley!"
The Black-Faced Blue-Souled Man looked at each other, exchanged glances, and when the time was right, they attacked the black-robed man at the same time. For a moment, palm winds were whistling, sword shadows were flying, causing the sky and the earth to change color, and dark clouds were pressing down.
"Mei Niang, let's run for our lives while the black-robed man has no time to take care of us! It will be too late to escape!" In the strong wind, two women outside the battle circle were trying to keep their balance. Their clothes were torn, their faces were pale, and their bodies were covered with blood. They were all seriously injured. The woman in green clothes who urged Hu Meiniang at this moment was Caiyin beside her. The woman in pink clothes with her eyebrows slightly frowned beside Caiyin could only be Hu Meiniang!
Caiyin's voice was trembling with fear, and her body was shaking uncontrollably. She stared with horror at the black-robed man who had almost taken her and Hu Meiniang's lives. Seeing that the man was being entangled by three men and one woman who suddenly appeared, and unable to drag him away, she hurriedly dragged Hu Meiniang and tried to flee.
"Caiyin, we can't just leave like this." Hu Meiniang broke free from Caiyin's hand, gritted her teeth and endured the severe pain in her body, staring intently at the people who were fighting. She saw that the man in black robe was fighting four people alone and still looked relaxed and not at a disadvantage, while the four people who helped her and Caiyin were forced into a miserable state and in danger by the man in black robe. The look in her eyes gradually became solemn and nervous.
"Caiyin, you don't have to worry about me. Leave here first. I'll go help them." Hu Meiniang took a breath and recovered some strength. She stepped on her toes and joined the battle with her light pink figure. "Meiniang—" Caiyin stamped her feet. It was too late to stop her. Seeing Hu Meiniang rushing forward to fight the black-robed man with the three men and one woman, her heart immediately hung in her throat. She was secretly worried about Hu Meiniang. She stared at the few people who were fighting, and her face hesitated. After thinking for a moment, she finally made a decision, turned around and ran quietly to the bushes on the side, crouched and hid, instead of leaving Hu Meiniang and escaping alone. Caiyin held her breath and stared at the battle outside through the gaps between the branches and leaves without blinking. Over there, the man in black robe was approaching the woman in purple like a ghost, reaching out to grab her. His moves were strange and his speed was fast. The three companions of the woman in purple were forced back a dozen feet away by him, and they had no time to rescue the woman in purple. At the critical moment, Hu Meiniang arrived in time. She exclaimed "Be careful-" and without thinking, she summoned a white silk and rolled it towards the man in black robe from behind. The man in black robe's attention was originally only on the four people of Ziying, and he did not prepare for someone to suddenly attack him from behind. He was caught off guard for a moment, but he responded in an instant. However, his figure that was approaching Ziying suddenly paused, and he decisively gave up Ziying, jumped up, and avoided Hu Meiniang's attack.
When the black-robed man dodged Hu Meiniang's attack, Ziying retreated to a safe area in time. He secretly breathed a sigh of relief and looked up at Hu Meiniang with a grateful smile.
Seeing that Ziying was fine, Hu Meiniang felt relieved. She followed Heimian and Lanhun who rushed forward like shadows, rose from the ground, and besieged the man in black robe, not giving him any chance to breathe.
"Ziying, are you okay?" Huang Po rushed to Ziying and asked quickly, patting Ziying up and down in worry: "Are you injured?"
Ziying shook his head and whispered, "I'm fine. Fortunately, the woman named Mei Niang took action in time." Then he frowned slightly and said solemnly, "Huang Po, we are no match for this evil dragon spirit. We have to think of a way."
Huang Po secretly breathed a sigh of relief and frowned, saying, "This evil dragon spirit has too much magic power. If the five envoys of the Dragon Palace were all here, we could still set up a demon-killing formation to deal with him, but now there are only you, me, Heimian, and Lanhun, so it's no use." He glanced at the black-robed man who was fighting with Heimian, Lanhun and others, and slowly clenched his hands. As the saying goes, enemies often meet on a narrow road. Early in the morning, a strange phenomenon flashed in the sky over Phoenix Mountain. Heimian and Lanhun, who thought there would be something exciting to watch, forced themselves and Ziying to rush to Phoenix Mountain to watch the excitement. As soon as they approached the lakeside here, they saw from a distance that a black-robed man was about to kill two women and suck their blood. Everyone couldn't bear to stand by and watch, so they rushed forward to stop him. When they saw the black-robed man's appearance clearly, they found that he was the evil dragon spirit who killed the five envoys of the Dragon Palace in the battle in Baihua Valley that day and became a wandering soul of five directions. Kong Qianli! Huang Po and his companions fought with Kong Qianli, who was already grudged by the enemy and wanted to do evil. However, Kong Qianli had profound Taoism and powerful magic. No one had ever defeated him in the Hundred Flowers Valley that day. During the fight, Huang Po found that Kong Qianli's magic power was even stronger than before. It would be harder to control him now than to ascend to heaven! Huang Po frowned, and his mind flashed. Countless thoughts flashed through his mind, but he could not think of a good way to control the evil dragon spirit. He could not delay any longer, so he turned his head and told Ziying, "Ziying, go back and ask the princess for help immediately. Heimian and I will deal with the evil dragon spirit here. I hope we can hold on until the princess arrives."
Ziying refused without a second thought: "No, I can't abandon you. I want to stay and fight this evil dragon together with you."
"Ziying, don't act on impulse. The only ones who can subdue this evil dragon now are the princess and her friends. Go get help as soon as possible!" Huang Po said no more. After saying this, he rejoined the battle.
