"That person moves quickly," the Seven thought, alarmed.
"Be careful, that is 'Copper Corpse'!" Ke Zhen'E shouted.
Han Xiaoying ran over and looked down the hill; she saw a shadow approaching at a quick pace, howling.
Mei Chaofeng had adopted a defensive stance, no longer attacking. She concentrated her internal energy to arrest the progress of the poison in her body, while waiting for her husband's arrival to help destroy the enemy.
Zhu Cong made a sign to Quan Jinfa and the two men hid themselves in the brush. 'Iron Corpse' was dangerous by herself, but from the speed of 'Copper Corpse', Zhu Cong suspected that he could be even stronger than his wife. It was obviously impossible to defeat them when they were together. On the other hand, a chance existed if they took them by ruse.
Suddenly, Han Xiaoying uttered a shriek of surprise; she saw, in front of the running shadow, another smaller silhouette that was also climbing the hill. This silhouette moved more slowly, and, because it was small, no one had seen it before. She watched more attentively and saw that it was a child, Guo Jing certainly. Surprised and delighted, she hastened to meet him.
She was not very far from him and the downward slope was easy to descend, but 'Copper Corpse', a remarkable expert in lightness kung fu, was gaining on him quickly. Han Xiaoying hesitated: "I am not skilled enough to face 'Copper Corpse'… But the child is going to fall into his hands, how can I not help?" She accelerated and shouted, "Quickly, child, run faster!"
Seeing her, Guo Jing uttered a yell of joy, unconscious of the imminent danger that threatened him.
For years, Zhang Ahsheng had been secretly in love with Han Xiaoying, but never dared express his feelings towards her. Seeing her running into terrifying danger, he feared for her safety and sprang forward to catch up and protect her.
On top of the hill, the other Freaks had stopped attacking Mei and observed the slope of the hill, keeping their invisible projectiles concealed, ready to intervene.
In the blink of an eye, Han Xiaoying reached Guo Jing; she took his small hand and turned on her heels to run back with him. They had hardly started, when she felt Guo Jing's hand slip from her grip. The child uttered a loud scream; Chen Xuanfeng had grabbed him from behind. Han Xiaoying turned around with an agile move and, using the sword stroke 'The Phoenix Nods it's Head', feinted towards the enemy's left armpit; then, moving to the side, raised the tip of the sword for a quick and precise thrust, aimed at his eyes. It was the very essence of the sophisticated technique of 'The Sword of the Yue Maiden'.
Chen Xuanfeng took the child under his left arm, parried the stroke with his right, deflecting the blade. He followed with the palm stroke 'To Push the Skiff while Following the Current'. The young woman retracted her weapon and moved away. But the arm of Chen Xuanfeng suddenly seemed to lengthen by half a foot. Han Xiaoying, who originally had the impression that she was outside of his range, was reached and struck on the shoulder. She fell to the ground.
This exchange took place in a flash. The merciless 'Copper Corpse' followed with a stroke of his claws directly at the top of Han Xiaoying's head. The 'Nine Yin White Bone Claws' was a dangerous and cruel technique which destroyed flesh and broke bones. The stroke could not fail to penetrate the skull of the young woman. Zhang Ahsheng was some steps away and understood the danger; without thinking about his own safety, he threw himself on top of her, protecting her with his body. The claw fell, and the five fingers of 'Copper Corpse' penetrated the 'Smiling Dhuda's' back. Zhang Ahsheng let out a terrifying howl and tried to reach his enemy's chest with his large knife. Chen Xuanfeng defended against it, causing the weapon to drop. 'Copper Corpse' returned with another palm against Zhang as he lay on the ground. Frightened, the other Freaks shouted as they hurried to their rescue.
"My 'Shrew'," shouted Chen Xuanfeng, "what happened here?"
\
"They destroyed my eyes!" Mei Chaofeng replied with anger while leaning against a tree. "If you let one of them escape, my 'Bastard' husband, you will deal with me!"
"No worries, my 'Shrew'," Chen Xuanfeng shouted, "Not one will escape alive. You… Are you hurt? Don't move…"
'Copper Corpse' slammed down his hand again at the head of Han Xiaoying. Han used the move 'A Lazy Dunce makes a Somersault', and she escaped rolling.
"Do you believe you will be able to escape me?" mocked Chen, raising his left hand.
Zhang Ahsheng, severely wounded and confused, saw that his beloved was in danger of being killed. Mobilizing every last bit of strength, he sent a kick toward the enemy's hand. Chen planted his fingers in Zhang's leg. Zhang, goaded by the pain, straightened up and wrapped his arms around his aggressor. Chen caught him by the neck, wanting to throw him far away, but the 'Smiling Dhuda', fearing still that he would hurt Han Xiaoying, stubbornly refused to release him. 'Copper Corpse' gave him a violent blow to the head that stunned him. The butcher fainted, and his grip relaxed.
The intervention of Zhang had given the young woman enough time for her to jump to her feet and take the fight to Chen. She didn't dare approach him closely and was content to whirl around the enemy using her lightness technique.
"Fifth brother," she shouted, "how do you feel?" She had made two whirls round Chen, when the others arrived and joined in. Zhu Cong and Quan Jinfa immediately threw their invisible projectiles.
'Copper Corpse' was surprised to see so many enemies of this strength. "We are in the middle of the deserted steppe," he thought, "where did these expert fighters come from? My 'Shrew'," he shouted, "these skilled people, who are they?"
It's the members of the 'Bat Soaring Through the Heaven's' group. The leader is the brother of 'Divine Dragon Soaring through the Sky'.
"Good, a group of bastards we've never met. Never mind, we will kill them anyway!"
Fearful of his wife's injury, he shouted, "And you my 'Shrew', are you seriously wounded? Tell me at least that it doesn't threaten your life?"
"Hurry up and slaughter them", Mei Chaofeng shouted furiously. "I am not dead yet…"
Seeing his wife leaning on the tree and not coming to lend him assistance, Chen understood then that, in spite of her usual stubbornness, she was seriously injured. Worried, he hoped to eliminate the enemy as soon as possible and take care of her. At this moment, five Freaks were surrounding him; only Ke Zhen'E remained aside ready to intervene at any time.
Chen Xuanfeng threw Guo Jing to the ground and sent a punch in the direction of Quan Jinfa. Quan, worried about the child, ducked to avoid the stroke and used this chance to snatch up Guo Jing. A somersault got them out of the enemy's range. This movement, named 'The Mischievous Cat Catches the Mouse', is used to avoid and save at the same time. It had been executed with agility and precision. Even Chen Xuanfeng was in awe of his move.
'Copper Corpse' was cruel by nature; the stronger his adversaries were, the more he wanted to make them die with atrocious suffering. Because they had injured his beloved wife he wanted it even more. The 'Twin Killers of the Dark Winds' had, for a long time, trained in two dangerous techniques; the 'Nine Yin White Bone Claws' and the 'Heart Breaker' palm. He had now mastered them to eight or nine tenths of their power. With a terrifying howl, he attacked his enemies without worrying about his own safety, attacking with deadly strokes every time.
