Chapter 299: Chapter 220: Ruthless Actions, Ma Gu Takes Charge
“Who are you people, daring to obstruct the affairs of the Flowing Cloud Sect?”
The man in gray fixed his gaze grimly on the carriage, his tone chilly.
The man in gray was no fool.
Although he hadn’t seen how his own arrow had been deflected, there was no one else on this official road except for the carriage ahead.
Moreover, he had clearly heard the little girl on the carriage call out “Sister Zhao.”
Clearly, they were acquainted with the wretched girl in front of him.
So as he questioned them, he also secretly gestured to his followers to slowly encircle them from the front.
Lu Qing and the others naturally noticed the man in gray’s subtle movements, but they were unconcerned.
Ma Gu rushed to Zhao Qianlin, who had collapsed on the ground from exhaustion.
“Miss Zhao, are you alright?”
“I’m fine,” Zhao Qianlin’s face showed both relief from surviving danger and anxious concern, “Mr. Ma, you shouldn’t have saved me. These are disciples of the Flowing Cloud Sect who are after us. By saving me, you’ll provoke their wrath!”
“It’s okay, you still have injuries. Let me help you over, and have my elder examine you first.”

Ma Gu was not panicked, simply helping Zhao Qianlin up and walking directly towards the carriage.
“Courting death!”
Seeing that the other party not only didn’t respond but also dared to take the wretched girl away right in front of him, the man in gray was furious.
Without a second word, he drew his bow again and shot an arrow straight at Ma Gu’s back.
Ding!
Ma Gu did not move his body; one hand supported Zhao Qianlin, and with his other hand, he somehow drew his saber and deflected the arrow.
“Hmm?”
Seeing Ma Gu so effortlessly deflect his own arrow, the man in gray’s gaze sharpened.
He could sense that Ma Gu’s cultivation was not as high as his, merely at the Muscle Bone Realm.
However, his saber technique was exquisite; otherwise, it would have been impossible to so casually break his arrow technique.
After deflecting the arrow, Ma Gu continued without stopping, helping Zhao Qianlin back to the carriage.
“Elder Doctor Chen, Mr. Lu.”
Zhao Qianlin felt both grateful and ashamed.
That morning when they had departed, they had confidently bid farewell, not expecting that in a blink of an eye, they would be rescued by the elder again.
And this time, they had even implicated the elder, who would now suffer the wrath of the Flowing Cloud Sect.
“Don’t talk now; let me check your injuries.”
The elder doctor stopped Zhao Qianlin’s attempt to express thanks and began examining her wounds.
After checking, he found three severe cuts from a blade on her body—one on the waist, another on the abdomen, and one on the shoulder, each deep enough to see the bone.
It was truly remarkable that she had managed to run here without collapsing sooner.
“First, take this medicine.”
The elder doctor placed a blood-replenishing elixir into Zhao Qianlin’s mouth.
Then he said to Little Yan, “Little Yan, help Sister Zhao inside, and dress her wounds with antiseptic medicine.”
Zhao Qianlin was a woman, and it was not appropriate for Lu Qing and the others to apply medicine to her.
Fortunately, Little Yan had also learned quite a bit of medical knowledge from the elder doctor over the past two years, and she understood how to dress simple wounds.
“Understood!”
Little Yan responded softly, moving forward to assist Zhao Qianlin.
“Old Doctor Chen, it won’t do, you should leave quickly, these people are incredibly cruel, just now in the town, nearly half were killed by them, they are animals, even worse…”
Before Zhao Qianlin could finish speaking, the elder doctor interrupted her, “Are you saying the people in the town ahead were killed by them?”
Zhao Qianlin said with grief and anger, “Yes, we arrived at the town this morning, intending to purchase some supplies, only to discover that these disciples from the Flowing Cloud Sect were causing havoc in the town.
Initially, our master was leading us to hide until they left.
Unexpectedly, because a stall owner complained a few times, not only did they smash the whole stall, they also killed the stall owner’s family, not even sparing the children.
Senior Brother Dashi couldn’t stand by and immediately jumped out to fight them.
Later, we couldn’t withstand these villains, and they captured all our masters, I was the only one, under the final desperate fight by our master that opened a gap, who luckily escaped.
Old Doctor Chen, these people are demons, once they started killing, they began looting the town, anyone who resisted was immediately chopped down, extremely cruel!”
Listening to Zhao Qianlin’s weeping complaint, the elder doctor’s face also turned increasingly grim.
Lu Qing, seeing this, knew that his master was truly angry.
He immediately pushed his sister, “Little Yan, you take Sister Zhao inside first to dress her wounds.”
Zhao Qianlin initially wanted to refuse, but upon meeting Lu Qing’s gaze, she couldn’t help but swallow her words and obediently followed Little Yan into the carriage.
“Sir, is what Miss Zhao just said true?”
After Zhao Qianlin entered the carriage, the elder doctor looked towards the slowly approaching man in grey.
“So what if it is?”
The man in grey saw his subordinates surrounding them and the carriage had no route to escape, and he sneered.
He had also noticed that this sudden appearance of the carriage contained only four or five people.
Aside from the man who had just slashed his arrow, the others were not strong.
The old man obviously did not need to be mentioned, as he had no Qi-Blood Power at all.
The remaining three were a little girl, another barely entered Qi Blood Realm, and the only capable one, who had the strength of the Muscle Bone Realm, carrying an iron staff.
Two in the Muscle Bone Realm, and a few frail and ill ones, dared to meddle in the affairs of the Flowing Cloud Sect.
The man in grey’s heart overflowed with a killing intent, and cruelty showed in his eyes.
He was already thinking about how to torture these people.
“I’ve heard that the Flowing Cloud Sect is a renowned great sect in Yunzhou, why would you commit such cruel acts? Not only seizing people’s wealth but also annihilating their families, don’t you think that’s overboard?” the elder doctor said sternly.
“Our Flowing Cloud Sect does not need to explain our actions to others!” the man in grey sneered repeatedly.
“Old fellow, since you also know our Flowing Cloud Sect’s reputation and still dare to obstruct us, I see you are really sick of living! Men, capture them, don’t kill them just yet, I want to properly torture them first before killing them!”
“Yes, elder!”
The disciples from the Flowing Cloud Sect who came along, upon hearing this, all revealed cruel smiles, holding their weapons and rushing towards the carriage.
“Seeking death!”
Ma Gu, upon seeing this, glared with wide eyes, drew his war saber, and burst out with Qi-Blood Power, stepping forward with a Sweeping Thousands of Army saber strike.
Boom!
Under Ma Gu’s full force, the power of this strike was fierce, instantly forcing back all the attacking disciples from the Flowing Cloud Sect.
With one strike forcing back a dozen men, Ma Gu felt a surge of pride, took another step forward, and slashed again.
This strike, aimed directly at a retreating disciple of the Flowing Cloud Sect with the force of splitting a mountain from top to bottom.
The fierceness of the saber strike terrified the disciple from the Flowing Cloud Sect, his courage breaking, and in his panic, he only managed to raise his weapon before his body shook violently, spitting blood, struck by Ma Gu even with the weapon in between.
Resolving one opponent with one strike, Ma Gu did not pause.
His body shot forward, aiming directly at the remaining disciples of the Flowing Cloud Sect.
Intending to take on more than a dozen disciples of the Flowing Cloud Sect by himself.
This scene, not only did it boil Wei Zian’s blood upon watching, but even Zhao Qianlin, upon hearing the commotion and sticking her head out from the carriage curtains, was stunned as well.
