Soon, her body was slashed in multiple places by the spear's tip, blood seeping out and staining her clothes, appearing particularly stark against the white snow.
Xiang Kun, witnessing this from the side, was anxious and without hesitation leapt forward. Holding a shattered iron flute as a shield, he charged towards Xiao Lingling.
He perford the "Celestial Spirit Acupoint Technique," rapidly spinning the iron flute in front of him to form a defensive barrier, attempting to shield Xiao Lingling from the oncoming tide of attacks.
"Clang clang!" Xiang Kun used his hard iron flute to block three deadly mother-child darts for Xiao Lingling. The sharp tips of the darts clashed against the iron flute, sparking brilliantly, accompanied by a crisp tallic clash echoing in the air.
Xiang Kun's body was flung like a kite with a broken string due to the violent impact, and he spat out blood once more, the crimson droplets dispersing across the pristine snow, dyeing it red in patches.
Despite suffering such serious injuries, Xiang Kun gritted his teeth, enduring the intense pain, struggling to stand up from the snow. He once again lifted the blood-stained iron flute to face the new wave of attacks from the officials and soldiers.
"The Barrel" Lu Dechu swiftly charged over on his flying horse, drinking and spraying wine as a hidden weapon.
His left hand tightly grasped the wine gourd, while his right hand executed the powerful "Celestial Spirit Palm Technique," each strike carrying trendous force, sending the surrounding Jinyi Guards sprawling, their cries echoing continuously.
During the fierce battle, Lu Dechu didn't forget to support Xiang Kun with his foot, trying to help him stay steady.
At this mont, more Jinyi Guard experts leapt over, wielding sharp Brocade Spring Sabers. The saber lights glead coldly as they slashed rcilessly at Lu Dechu.
In the bloody battle, Lu Dechu sprayed wine droplets like a goddess scattering flowers, turning them into hidden weapons to strike the Jinyi Guards while holding the wine gourd and supporting Xiang Kun with his foot, fiercely fighting to the death with several Jinyi Guard experts.
The scene was thrilling, and although Lu Dechu was hard-pressed and injured in many places, he clenched his teeth, refused to retreat, and persisted in protecting Xiang Kun.
"The Bamboo Pole" Jiang Huotian held a bifurcated iron rod, moving nimbly through the enemy's formation.
While fiercely battling with the Jinyi Guard experts, he strived to get closer to this side.
Each swing of the iron rod brought a whistling wind, poking at the Jinyi Guards, scaring so into retreating.
Nevertheless, a large number of Jinyi Guards continued to surge like a tide, surrounding him tightly. Jiang Huotian had to fight with all his might, searching for a chance to break through the encirclent.
Xiao Lingling ran anxiously to Xiang Kun's side.
At this mont, Xiang Kun had already fallen into a coma, his face as pale as paper, without a trace of blood, looking extrely weak.
Xiao Lingling gently wiped the blood off his face, her actions tender and full of concern.
Unintentionally, she discovered torn pages of the "Lotus Sutra" hidden in Xiang Kun's bosom.
Looking at these pages, Xiao Lingling felt a mixture of emotions welling up in her heart.
It turned out that in the secret compartnt of Xiang Kun's iron flute, there was a strand of Xiao Lingling's hair cut off during a martial arts fight years ago.
This strand of hair carried Xiang Kun's deep affection over the years. He had silently thought of this strand of hair countless days and nights. It turned out Xiao Lingling was also from Liaodong, and earlier, she and Xiang Kun were fellow disciples, learning skills together in the sa school, spending many beautiful tis.
Later, Xiao Lingling's family moved to the Central Plains, and since then, she lost contact with Xiang Kun. It wasn't until the Liaodong Changsheng Castle was destroyed by the Divine Water Palace that Xiang Kun, who lived in the castle, joined the Heroic Sakura Association and discovered Xiao Lingling on an accidental occasion.
However, by this ti, Xiao Lingling was already married, having a child with "Iron Palm" Wu Zhong. Xiang Kun felt deeply saddened, yet he continued to watch over Xiao Lingling silently, burying his deep affection deep in his heart, never expressing it.
At this mont, Fan Shi of the "Xingyi Fist" and Kong Triangle of the "Seven Cultivation Sword" fought bravely as if lightning struck, employing exceedingly fierce and swift moves. Fan Shi executed the exquisite moves of Xingyi Fist with perfection, cycling through Tiger, Leopard, and Dragon Forms, each move carrying imnse power, forcing so Jinyi Guards into retreat, unable to resist.
Kong Triangle, wielding his long sword, had the sword flowers flickering like stars in the night sky. Wherever he went, officers fell one after another, unable to stop them. They fought their way forward, trying to break the enemy's sharp spear formation.
However, despite their numbers and training, Fan Shi and Kong Triangle ultimately couldn't change the outco; Wu Zhong was taken away by the Jinyi Guards.
This rescue mission, although they put enormous effort into it, ultimately ended in failure.
The heroes could only sit wearily by the Yellow River, gazing at the turbulent waters, quietly waiting for Shi Feiyang's instructions. Their hearts were filled with unwillingness and helplessness, yet powerless to act.
In a side room of the Lu Family Martial Arts Hall, candlelight flickered, casting dancing shadows on the walls, making the room appear dim and serene.
Shi Feiyang sat alone in front of the table, tightly holding the waist tag obtained from Zhao Quan, the Hundred Households of the Jinyi Guard at Luoyang Guard Station, his eyes solemnly fixed on the mysterious secret ssage on the waist tag.
