The fight between the father and son had their surroundings scarred.
No one was holding back. Both were adamant in giving death blows to the other party.
Butler Qian have no ti to be an audience because he was exchanging blows with his two students, Xuyu and Mr. Kang.
"You two....did you co to kill as well?"
Xuyu ignored her Teacher. She struck and attacked.
"You two can't do anything to . I am your teacher. As well as your Master's Teacher. Since you side with the enemy, I have no choice but to kill you two."
Butler Qian cared for his students. But he could not control their life and death that was in the hands of their Masters.
His dear student that he had taken care of since the man was young, Gunan, have to die for crossing the line of his Master. And before Gunan, nurous students have to be sacrificed and died because of their mission and his Master's orders.
With every death that cos forth after another, Butler Qian had beco numb to it.
Facing the two students that he took care of since their teenage years, Butler Qian was already used to it. Thus his wrinkled hand that took hundreds of lives, did not tremble in hurting his students.
Mr. Kang had red eyes. Between his Master and his Teacher, he would undoubtedly choose his Master. It was the sa for his teacher, between Butler Qian's students and Master Ming Zhi Yi, Butler Qian would surely choose the latter.
"Don't bla in the afterlife, Teacher. I am loyal to Young Master. Since Young Master wants to end this, we would help him end this!"
Butler Qian was old but he was still quick on his feet. Nevertheless, Mr. Kang and Xuyu were also experts, with the two of them suppressing him, they could rival him on equal footing.
On the other hand, since Lu Jin was still injured, he was at a disadvantage. Ming Zhi Yi was not rciful to his son. Using both knives, he slashes his son's body as he could.
Blood splattered.
But the continuous attacks never ceased.
The series of punches, the air splitting into half by the sharp knives, the trees being hit, and the falling of rocks sounded everywhere.
Not far from them were the continuous gunshots that were decreasing.
The foot of the fountain was tainted by blood.
In a few yards away from them, Linfeng finally arrived.
He looked at the aftermath of the battle. Even Ming Zhi Yi's group was outnumbered they greatly put a fight.
The experts on Ming Zhi Yi's side were at their edge. It was only a matter of minutes before the last of them were killed. There's no need for his help here.
He passed them by and saw a trail of corpses. Their necks were split.
Linfeng's eyes flashed.
Ming Zhi Yi had been here.
He flew like lightning passing by the trees painted with blood.
In a few seconds, he arrived where the intense battle between Ming Zhi Yi and his son was occurring.
Lu Jin was covered in blood and wounds, his bandages were falling off. His old wounds were opening again making a ghastly sight. But Lu Jin held on.
Ming Zhi Yi was in better shape. He only had two small cuts on his face and a punch on his gut. Those never affected his fighting prowess.
"Why...? Why do you want to stop ? The world I am building will be yours to inherit! So why?!" Ming Zhi Yi attacked him again in fury.
Lu Jin was being suppressed. He gritted his teeth as he answered. "That's not the world I wanted! This is insanity! You are building a world over their corpses! What is it that you want, father! A world where everyone would live like you?!"
Ming Zhi Yi was angered. The heart that he put in steeled iron box wanted to scream.
"Yes! That's right! If this cruelty of mine could not be understood by others, I will forcefully engrave it on their body! You, the one I thought should understand the most wanted to end ?! For what reason?! For other's sake?! Who are you joking!"
Ming Zhi Yi's blows were getting harder and harder. Lu Jin's skin hurt. The surface of his skin was ruptured. His insides were churning. His bones were getting crushed. The blood loss was making him dizzy.
But the pain in his heart was more excruciating.
"...You are wrong father. I understand. Because I understand you that I wanted to end your pain."
Lu Jin did not dodge his father's blows on his face. The knife had already been discarded by their blows long ago.
Lu Jin's mouth was bloodied. He could not open his other eye fully. He was cornered in the tree. His back was full of wounds. But his words never stopped.
"Father...aren't you tired? Is seeing blood, getting revenge, are the only thing making you happy...? Are you even happy by that in the first place?"
Lu Jin's obsidian irises that rarely give out emotion were full of complex feelings. There was extre sadness, regret, sorrow, and relief in those dark pools.
He let his father oppress him as he stared into his father's eyes. "Father...grandfather and grandmother are gone now. They have left this world long ago. This world only has you, , and Yin Ze. So why....you keep holding onto their dead spirits? Leave them be."
Ming Zhi Yi's heart felt like it was poked. It was swelling up with suffocating feeling he could not comprehend. He felt annoyed and angry at the sa ti.
"What do you know?! You left my side and betrayed many tis! You don't have the right to lecture !"
Lu Jin's eyes were sad. "I know...I know that no matter what I said you won't listen to . So father...don't forgive ..."
In Lu Jin's eyes, another man appeared behind Ming Zhi Yi's back.
"What...."
There was a spine-chilling coldness behind Ming Zhi Yi. A rising danger crept into his heart.
He instinctively dodge but it was too late. He received a great blow on his chin.
The strength behind the fist was great enough to make a great Master like Ming Zhi Yi to blank out for a mont. His world blurred and he beco dizzy.
Ming Zhi Yi imdiately put so distance and shook his head to make himself awake.
There was a shocked look on his face. He could not imagine that there was a powerful master hiding unknown to him.
"Master!" Butler Qian's cry was heard at the side. But before he could help his Master, the two wounded students blocked him.
Linfeng stood in front of Ming Zhi Yi. His face was cold. A deep hatred and killing intent was spreading on the foot of the mountain.
"I don't usually do a sneak attack. But for devils like you, I won't hold anything back." His voice was bone-chilling as well.
Ming Zhi Yi spat so blood. He looked condemningly at the man before him.
Who dared to interrupt his revenge on his treacherous son?!
"A Xiong butler? A bastard like you is actually a great master? That's quite a surprise." Ming Zhi Yi's eyes then filled with a murderous aura.
"But no matter how talented you are, in the end, you are only a servant. How dare a lowlife like you hit ?" He then disappeared and appeared like a shadow. He appeared in front of Linfeng.
Linfeng stood upright. He raised his hand and received Ming Zhi Yi's blow head-on.
Smash!
The cold wind moved around them. The rustling of the leaves sounded everywhere. Their shadows dispersed as the breaking dawn approached the night sky rapidly. The sky went from scarlet to orange glow.
Two figures exchanged blows. Sotis one of them hit the trees causing the leaves to shake, a blow destroyed the rows of rock. The animals who lived in the forest had fled long ago.
Their fight of qigong and techniques was at the level beyond of a Master.
Lu Jin who was leaning heavily on the tree could only watch.
Who would have thought that the butler he assud that was at the sa level as him was actually beyond him and could rival his great father? It seed like his judgnt was right. This butler was hiding his true strength.
Butler Qian also focused on the fight between his master and the newcor. He was shocked.
Soone could actually rival his master in martial prowess? Who is he?!
"Teacher, where are you looking?!"
A punch landed on his old face. He took several steps back. But his eyes were on the fight not far away from them.
The fight between masters was truly amazing...
The land under them was reford, while the air around them hissed and whistled.
However, before Butler Qian could be srized by the fight between the two, he saw his Master coughing blood.
Butler Qian's eyes went wide.
An internal injury!
How great is the strength behind those fists to injure his Master internally?!
But he could not fully comprehend it when he saw another incoming deadly blow to his Master.
Without thinking, he used all his qigong for one swift movent. Like a passing wind, he arrived in front of his Master in ti just to receive the deadly blow.
His figure appeared just between Linfeng and Ming Zhi Yi.
Just this movent rendered the old body motionless as he exhausted all of his qigong.. But before he could feel the numbness on his limbs, his whole being was t by a powerful force.
