This restaurant is too small, and there are too many enemies. Fighting here would be disadvantageous for him. He needs to go to a more open place.
As soon as they emerged from the Heavenly Pass, countless arrows rained down from all directions.
Jiang Ning glanced around and saw that dozens of archers had surrounded the restaurant and were shooting arrows at him.
Arrows rained down, and there was nowhere to hide as far as the eye could see.
when!
Jiang Ning slashed diagonally, cleaving an arrow in two, then wielded his sword with such speed and precision that he knocked down arrow after arrow.
After one volley of arrows was finished, a second volley followed immediately.
call out!
An arrow, glowing with a cold, eerie green light, shot straight toward Jiang Ning.
Jiang Ning became wary and avoided contact or approach, choosing instead to step aside.
boom!
The arrow pointed straight into the roof of a building not far away, where the tiles around the arrow were beginning to rot.
Jiang Ning's eyes narrowed upon seeing this.
But he had no time to think anymore, as a dense barrage of poisoned arrows came from all around him.
call out!
Jiang Ning leaned back to avoid a poisoned arrow, then spun his longsword in front of him, hooking the arrowheads coming straight at him with the tip of the sword. In the blink of an eye, he had caught more than a dozen arrows.
Jiang Ning channeled his inner energy and flicked his hand, sending the arrows flying back the way they came.
"what!!"
An archer was caught off guard and stabbed in the right eye. The arrowhead went into his right eye and emerged from the back of his head, the pale green arrowhead stained with blood.
The archer let out a heart-wrenching scream.
Besides this person, the other archers were also attacked, and the formation was thrown into disarray for a moment.
However, this was only on a small scale; most archers continued to fire poison arrows.
All around him were countless poisoned arrows. Jiang Ning looked around and began to circulate his inner energy, a pure white gas emanating from his body.
Jiang Ning unleashed a burst of internal energy, which blasted outwards and knocked away some of the poisoned arrows. However, only a portion of them were knocked away before the next volley of arrows struck again.
call out!
At that moment, several more darts flew out from under the roof.
Seeing this, Jiang Ning frowned slightly and did not choose to launch a direct attack. Instead, he went down into the restaurant.
The area was surrounded by archers; staying there would only invite attacks with poisoned arrows and deplete one's internal energy.
When the opponent outnumbers you, Jiang Ning needs to control his internal energy as much as possible to avoid exhausting it and becoming powerless.
Seeing Jiang Ning land again, the group on the second floor, who had been waiting below for a long time, attacked with weapons and hidden weapons.
Jiang Ning spun around in mid-air, deflecting a barrage of hidden weapons. He landed, only to be met with a barrage of attacks from all directions.
Jiang Ning leaned back and pressed himself against the ground, blocking with his sword. At the same time, he touched the ground with his toes and slid along the ground.
when!when!when!
Countless weapons struck the ground where Jiang Ning had just stood.
At this moment, Jiang Ning had already moved behind one of the people, pressed one palm to the ground and did a somersault to get up, sticking close to the person's back.
A warning bell rang in his back. Although he was startled, he reacted quickly and slashed back with a backhand strike.
However, Jiang Ning was faster. He reached out and grabbed his wrist, held his sword against his neck, and pulled, causing a stream of blood to spurt out.
With a single, fatal blow, Jiang Ning bent his knee and braced himself against the man's back, pushing him forward to block the impending attack. The next second, he turned and swung his sword diagonally.
when!
One man was attacking with a weapon, which clashed with Jiang Ning's sword. Jiang Ning's arm trembled, and he raised his leg high, turned around and kicked the other man's wrist, deflecting his attack.
At this moment, four or five more people rushed up from the surroundings. Jiang Ning swung his sword and swept it, unleashing a crescent-shaped sword aura that slid out horizontally.
Three of the attackers immediately retreated, refusing to fight back, while the other two countered with sword energy, but the next second...
"what!!"
"what!!!"
Two screams rang out, and two bloody wounds appeared on the two men's bodies.
"Don't fight him with sword energy. His internal strength is very deep, and you can't beat him. Just surround and kill him."
One person shouted.
"He is doomed to die today, do not be careless."
Although this group outnumbered the others, they were very cautious and did not become careless because of their numerical advantage.
The people surrounding the restaurant were highly skilled in martial arts, and there were also archers surrounding it from the outside. It seems that the person behind the scenes was determined to kill him.
Is it Ren Yingying? Or Zuo Lengchan?
Jiang Ning frowned.
boom!
A tall, burly man came crashing down with a meteor hammer.
The meteor hammer was covered with sharp spikes and was dark red in color. When it was swung, it created a bloody gust of wind. Jiang Ning could even smell the stench. It was hard to imagine how many people had been killed on it.
Jiang Ning dodged the meteor hammer as it slammed into the ground, then raised his leg and kicked hard, aiming straight for his abdomen.
The burly man was prepared; he tightened his abdominal muscles and gathered his internal energy.
Bang!
With a muffled thud, Jiang Ning's kick didn't send him flying; it only made the man take a step back.
"strong enough!"
The burly man spoke in a muffled voice, as if nothing had happened, but his facial expression twitched, clearly indicating that the kick had not been easy for him.
Chapter 325: The Outhouse
"Even King Yama is nothing special."
After blocking the kick, the burly man grinned menacingly, but before he could finish speaking, Jiang Ning raised his leg and kicked him in the abdomen again.
Unlike before, Jiang Ning imbued this kick with internal force.
The burly man's expression froze, his eyes almost popping out of their sockets. The next second, he flew backward, rolling repeatedly on the ground. No one around dared to catch him, and he rolled all the way downstairs.
"vomit!"
The burly man couldn't help but vomit, spewing out a mess of vomit and excrement, his face twitching uncontrollably.
"How's it going? Are you okay?"
A person downstairs stepped forward and asked.
"……fine."
The burly man gritted his teeth, trying to stand up, but the excruciating pain in his abdomen prevented him from moving at all; even the slightest movement felt like being pricked by countless needles.
"His martial arts skills are very good, be careful."
The burly man couldn't get up, so he could only give his companion some instructions.
"understood."
The man responded and immediately rushed up the stairs to the second floor, where Jiang Ning started fighting with the group again.
boom!
Swords clashed, and Jiang Ning slashed one man back with a single blow. He then sheathed his sword and thrust back, causing the attacker from behind to hastily retreat to defend.
Jiang Ning thrust three times in quick succession, each strike faster and more ruthless than the last.
This move was taught to me by Yue Buqun from the Three Green Peaks of Taiyue.
These three sword moves were Yue Buqun's masterpieces. The second sword was faster than the first, and the third sword was even more ruthless than the second. Once the three swords were unleashed, the man was completely unable to resist and was pierced through the chest by Jiang Ning's sword.
Jiang Ning quickly killed the man, then drew his sword back to deflect the incoming attack.
At that moment, several more people attacked simultaneously.
One of them rushed forward and kicked out, but Jiang Ning immediately retreated and thrust his sword forward. The speed was so fast that the attacker couldn't react in time, and the sword pierced his thigh.
"what!"
A scream rang out, Jiang Ning sheathed his sword, pulled it back, and swung it across the man's neck.
Just as he finished off this man, another person wielding a knife with both hands slashed at him from behind. At the same time, another person slashed at him from the side. Jiang Ning stretched out his right arm and struck horizontally, his longsword spinning to lock the hands of the person attacking him from behind.
Seeing this, the man immediately let go and tried to retreat, but Jiang Ning immediately reached out his left hand, grabbed his wrist, and pulled him forward forcefully. The man lost control and crashed forward, blocking the other man's attack in front of Jiang Ning.
"Ok!"
The man's eyes widened, and a sharp pain shot through his back.
The other man looked surprised upon seeing this. Before he could make a move, Jiang Ning pulled his wrist, and the man whose wrist he had locked was thrown straight into Jiang Ning's sword.
"Uh……"
The man's eyes widened, and Jiang Ning drew his sword, dispatching another man.
call out!
A sword came thrusting from the left. Jiang Ning turned to dodge and brushed past the person.
At the same time, Jiang Ning bent his right leg to suppress the man's knife-wielding hand, and punched him in the temple.
With a loud bang, the man's skull caved in, and his body went limp and he collapsed to the ground.
Jiang Ning's moves were swift and decisive, but against the surrounding crowd, killing one or two people didn't offer much of an advantage for the time being.
Jiang Ning glanced at the opening in the roof, grabbed a person, and threw him upwards.
Suddenly, a dense barrage of arrows rang out from outside, accompanied by a piercing scream.
"The wrong person was killed, the wrong person was killed."
The noise outside resumed, the sound of arrows stopped, and Jiang Ning immediately seized the opportunity to leap onto the sky gate, but the next second another arrows came flying in.
call out!
An arrow with a burning tip shot towards them, which Jiang Ning deflected with his sword. Then, a dense barrage of arrows came flying towards them.
"Throw!"
Outside, someone seemed to be giving orders, and immediately many people picked up wine jars and swung them high, directly towards Jiangning.
boom!
A flaming arrow pierced a wine jar, and as the wine splashed everywhere, the fire spread rapidly.
Bang!Bang!Bang!
One by one, the wine jars were pierced, and the rooftop where Jiang Ning was located was instantly engulfed in flames, which shot into the sky.
"Fire! Fire!"
Upon seeing the fire spreading downwards from above, everyone inside the restaurant rushed outside.
"Damn it, we're still inside and you're already bombarding us with rockets and alcohol. Are you trying to burn us alive?"
The first few who rushed out cursed at the archers outside.
"Isn't this okay?"
The person in charge was quite calm.
“We’re just shooting arrows on the roof. You have time to come out.”
Hearing this, many of the people who rushed out of the restaurant became even angrier.
