Tap tap tap...

Ye Jingtang held Hua Qingzhi in his arms and walked through the cave with complex terrain, followed by Zhenren Xuanji and Yao Cishan. In just a moment, he caught up with the three hundred Wuma tribesmen and birds who had set off first.

The caves inside the mountain are not artificial passages, but underground rivers from ancient times, running through the east and west of Huangming Mountain. The internal environment is quite harsh, with many forks and underground river cliffs with large drops.

In order to launch a surprise attack, Huang Liansheng rebuilt the military road, cleared roadblocks in places that were difficult to cross, and built rope ladders, rope bridges and other facilities.

But the remnants of the Shatuo tribe were obviously not stupid. In order to prevent being caught up by the Wuma tribe, they had already cut the rope when retreating.

Although the three hundred young men of the Wuma tribe pursued with all their strength, their progress was obviously hindered. After chasing for a long time, the distance was gradually lost, and they only caught a few unlucky ones who fell and were left behind.

Yao Cishan walked in front of his tribe and came to a natural cave more than ten feet high. He discovered that there was a knee-deep underground river below, so he jumped into it first to explore the way.

Master Xuanji stopped by the dark river and said:

"Chasing like this is not an option. Why don't you go ahead and block the road first?"

Ye Jingtang also had this intention, and immediately handed Hua Qingzhi to Shui'er to take care of him, hoping to rush into the formation alone to block the way.

But as soon as Ye Jingtang put Hua Qingzhi down, he suddenly frowned and raised his left hand:

"Shh~"

The young and strong Wuma tribe who were jumping into the underground river stopped when they saw this, holding up torches and looking around.

Wow~

The current location where everyone is located is a large underground cave with a height of more than ten feet. There are stalactites hanging above and there are many waterways and gaps around it. The water flows through the underground river under the left rock wall and goes deep into the ground in an unknown direction.

There, the passage for the remaining soldiers to escape was a stone staircase dug on top of the opposite rock wall.

Hua Qingzhi saw that everyone suddenly became quiet and even the birds landed on the stalactites. She couldn't help but feel a little confused and asked in a low voice:

"What's wrong?"

Ye Jingtang's ears twitched slightly, and he listened carefully to the surrounding movements. The next moment, he heard a muffled sound coming from inside the mountain:

boom--

Then the water flow in a water channel on the right suddenly increased, and the original stream turned into a torrent, rushing towards the people in the underground river.

Dozens of young men from the Wuma tribe who had already entered the river saw the sudden change in their expressions. They immediately turned around and tried to follow the cliff to the shore, but it was obviously too late.

If everyone gets into the water and then crosses halfway to attack it, at least half of the 300 people will be lost.

But fortunately, not many people came down at this time. Ye Jingtang saw that something was wrong, and immediately made a circular crater in the underground river, and his shoulder directly hit the top of the waterway gushing out the torrent.

Boom——

With a deafening explosion, the top of the waterway collapsed instantly, and countless rocks fell down, reducing the torrent in the waterway and knocking down many stalactites from the top of the cave.

Bang bang bang...

Master Xuanji hugged Hua Qingzhi and waved to the Wuma tribe man who was still in the river:

"Hurry up!"

Dozens of young men quickly climbed up the stone wall by the river.

After Ye Jingtang collided with the water channel, he flew up and landed in the middle of the cave. With his feet in knee-deep river water, he held the knife in his left hand and looked towards the entrance of the soldier channel on the opposite side.

Although Yao Cishan was not very skilled in martial arts, he still heard that someone was breaking rocks to release the water flow. At this time, he retreated to the top of the cliff and looked around as if facing a formidable enemy.

Tap tap tap...

As the earth-shattering movement stopped, footsteps could be heard from all the holes around the cave.

At the entrance of the military road opposite the underground river, the sound was the densest. First there was a fire, and then a figure wearing a Confucian shirt walked out slowly from the corner.

Ye Jingtang squinted his eyes and saw that the person walking in the front was a gentle middle-aged man. His face was neither happy nor angry. He could not feel his breath at all as he walked forward. It was most likely that he had entered a state of returning to his original nature.

The people in the rear were all acquaintances, Li Si, Xu Tianying, Hua Junchen...

Huang Liansheng had never seen the Night Terror Hall before, but as soon as he showed up, his eyes were attracted to the swordsman in black standing in the dark river, and he could hardly look away.

After all, he has been walking in the desert for so many years. He has seen Monk Shenchen, Jiang Zahu and others before, but this is the first time he has encountered such a powerful warrior.

Although that stern face has no expression and his eyes are not filled with emotions, it feels like a death sentence is pressing above his head!

Huang Liansheng and Ye Jingtang looked at each other from afar, and led his men to the edge of the dark river without haste. He wanted to say hello, but before he opened his mouth, he suddenly heard a voice coming from behind:

"Hua Qingzhi?"

Because both sides were facing formidable enemies, there was silence. This voice was so obvious that everyone turned their attention to Li Si who spoke.

Li Siben was a great scholar in Yanjing. Last year, he was entrusted by the old master to take Hua Qingzhi to Yun'an for treatment, so he naturally recognized Hua Fu's granddaughter.

Seeing Hua Qingzhi standing behind the Night Terror Hall, being held by a woman in white, Li Si frowned and immediately wanted to question Hua Junchen.

But what Li Si didn't expect was that before he could turn his head away, he saw a figure jumping out from beside him.

In fact, Hua Junchen had always been worried about the sudden collision with his son-in-law and daughter. At this time, he reacted very quickly. The moment he saw his daughter, he was shocked all over, and then ran forward anxiously and happily:

"Qingzhi!"

Hua Qingzhi knew that her father was inside, but she was still startled when she saw her. Fortunately, she had been smart since she was a child. When she realized that her father was rushing in regardless of her, she quickly rushed forward with excitement:

"father--!"

"Qingzhi!"

"Dad~!!!"

…

Not to mention the soldiers confronting each other, even the birds were startled by the sudden roar!

Master Xuanji quickly pulled Hua Qingzhi, who had difficulty with her legs and feet.

But Xu Tianying, with quick eyesight and quick hands, stopped Hua Junchen and scolded:

"Are you crazy? That's Night Terror Hall!"

After Huang Liansheng held it with one hand, he was obviously a little suspicious and asked Li Si:

"Is this his daughter?"

Li Si was also very suspicious and asked:

"Hua Junchen, didn't your daughter run away with someone? Could it be possible..."

Hua Qingzhi's face turned red, but luckily she couldn't see it due to her pretending to be excited. After hearing this, she said with grief and anger:

"Dad, my daughter did not elope. She was kidnapped by people from the Southern Dynasties. My daughter has been taught by her husband since she was a child. Li Shilang also taught me. How could my daughter elope..."

When Hua Junchen heard this, he was naturally furious and looked at the Night Terror Hall:

"Night Terror Hall! What did you do to my daughter?!"

"?"

But in an instant, hundreds of pairs of eyes turned to Ye Jingtang, who was standing in the center.

Ye Jingtang, on the other hand, was a little confused. Although no one said anything, the meaning in their eyes was very clear - they thought he was a pervert who kidnapped an enemy beauty.

If this is not explained clearly, the character will completely collapse.

Although Ye Jingtang's expression remained unchanged, his mind was racing. He thought for a while and said:

"I'm just asking Miss Hua to be a guest in the Southern Dynasty. The Hua family is the leader of Hudong Road. The reputation of Master Hua is well-known in Yun'an. Mr. Hua is the eldest son of Hua Mansion. As long as he is willing to help us persuade Master Hua,

…”

"Pooh--!"

Veins popped up on Hua Junchen's forehead, and he raised his sword and pointed it at the Night Terror Hall:

"You, after being a gang of criminals in the Southern Dynasties who kidnapped wives and daughters, are you worthy enough to let me, who has been practicing for thousands of years, be an unfaithful and unjust person? Give me back my daughter!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Hua Junchen pushed Xu Tianying away with his shoulder, raised his sword and flew up, with a sharp sword sound, and the underground river below was washed out with ripples on the left and right.

call out!!

Ye Jingtang was originally acting, but when he saw this terrifying sword, he was really shocked from the bottom of his heart.

After all, Uncle Hua's martial arts skills have indeed skyrocketed a lot, and the power of this sword is definitely the real power of a swordsman, not comparable to the likes of others.

Moreover, Uncle Hua's eyes were filled with hatred, as if he really wanted to kill him and had no intention of holding back.

The battle was about to break out. The expressions of the soldiers on both sides changed under the light of their swords. Even Huang Liansheng's eyes showed a little surprise.

However, when Ye Jingtang faced the indestructible sword, he did not draw his sword. Instead, he lightly raised his left hand, clamped the sword blade with his two fingers, twisted his left hand, and made a direct punch with his right hand.

Bang——

Hua Junchen didn't expect that his son-in-law wouldn't hold back his hand at all. He rushed to him and before he could react, he was already in his arms.

But in an instant, Hua Junchen's brocade robe suddenly bulged, a circular hole exploded in his back, his hair crown exploded, and even the underground river behind him created a huge fan-shaped wave.

Boom ~

"cough--"

Hua Junchen let out a muffled cough and instantly flew backwards, hitting Huang Liansheng and others. Xu Tianying caught him in the air as he flew out.
