He saw that Fawang had taken off his shoe and was holding a black and swollen left foot. Fawang was using his internal energy to suppress the poison.
Nimoxing was furious and he roared, âBastard, you fell for that trap so why the hell didnât you tell me about it?â
Fawang smiled, âI fell for it and you fell for it, both of us have suffered.â
Nimoxing could no longer control his anger as he sputtered, âI⊠no need capture Guo JingâŠNimoxingâŠrotten monkâŠa fight to the death!â
He could no longer use his legs; Nimoxing pushed the ground with his left hand and threw himself forward at Fawang while his right hand smashed down towards Fawangâs head with his Iron Snake. Fawang raised his bronze wheel to block the Iron Snake and then swept his arm across, throwing his elbow out. With his body in midair, it was difficult for Nimoxing to avoid this blow; Fawangâs elbow came at him extremely fast and struck him in the shoulder.
Nimoxing may have been thick boned, but this attack from Fawang left him in great pain. In such a state of fury he didnât give a damn about his life and threw himself at Fawang again. He hugged him tightly and bit down on Fawangâs âQi Abodeâ pressure point. If everything was normal, Nimoxing would never be able to get so close to Fawang and hug him. Even if he did manage to grab him, how would he ever get a clear path towards Fawangâs âQi Abodeâ pressure point? But right now, Fawang had fallen victim to an extremely lethal poison and was using all his internal energy to suppress it at the âBending Springâ pressure point. As long as he didnât let the poison spread, the most serious thing that would happen to him is the loss of a foot; his life would be safe. When Nimoxing threw himself at Fawang, Fawang had in effect lost his internal energy and was relying on his external martial arts to fend him off. Nimoxing however was giving everything he had and he bit down on the pressure point and didnât let go.
Fawang hooked out his right foot and with Nimoxing having lost use of his legs, they both fell down. Fawang tried to pull him off but with a vital pressure point held down, his strength had diminished, how could he pull him off? He could only hold Nimoxingâs âGreat Shuttleâ pressure point on his neck to stop him from making a fatal blow. The two were great martial artists but after falling victim to poison, they were now brawling on the ground, and not reflecting their martial arts status.
The two of them rolled around and were getting dangerously close the edge of a cliff. Fawang saw what was happening and he called out, âLet go, another roll and weâll fall to our deaths.â
But Nimoxing had lost all his senses, with his internal energy unoccupied, his was greater than Fawangâs and Fawang was unable to stop Nimoxing from pushing forward. Just a few inches away from falling into a deep chasm, Fawangâs survival senses came to life and he called out, âGuo Jingâs here!â
Nimoxing stopped and said, âWhere?â As he said this, his mouth loosened. Fawangâs pressure point was no longer blocked and he regained his strength, sending out a left palm. Nimoxing knew that he had been tricked and he lowered his head and threw his waist forwards.
Fawangâs palm was meant to force Nimoxing back but he had forgotten that, after being poisoned, Nimoxingâs legs were no longer in his control, how could he jump back? Instead of sending him back, Nimoxing was now going forward and the two bumped into each other, knocking them over the edge.
When Li Mochou knew that Yang Guoâs plan had worked, she secretly praised him. After hearing Fawang and Nimoxing struggling with each other, she thought the danger was over and was about to exit the cave. Suddenly she heard the two letting out a strange scream.
This was the scream of the two when they fell over the edge. With the cliff being over a hundred yards away and with a boulder blocking their view, they could not see what was happening.
Li Mochou said, âHey kid, what are they up to?â
Yang Guo could not have guessed that the two had actually fallen off a cliff and said, âThat damn monk is very sly, it could be possible that he is copying our trick of being injured to lure us out.â
Li Mochou agreed and whispered, âYes, they must be trying to trick us out to get my antidote.â She walked to the entrance in order to take a look at what exactly was happening.
Yang Guo said, âBe careful of the needles.â As soon as he said this he regretted his words; âWhy should I warn that witch?â
Li Mochou quickly pulled her feet back. The fire at the entrance of the cave was now out and she could not see in the dark like Yang Guo could, if she had continued her steps, she would surely have stepped onto the needles. She may have the antidote but the poison was very lethal, it would leave her in great pain. If she had stepped on one, Yang Guo would have taken advantage and she might have died by her own poisonous needles.
She said, âRemove the needles, why should we stay in here?â
Yang Guo said, âLetâs wait for the poison to finish them off.â
Li Mochou scoffed at his reply. She was extremely wary of Yang Guo, the longer she stayed with him in the cave the more danger she was exposed to. When it came to martial arts, she wasnât confident that she could defeat him and she certainly wasnât going to out think him. She lowered her head and tried to think of a way out.
Silence filled the cave. The two were preoccupied with their own thoughts. Suddenly, the baby cried. Ever since she was born, she hadnât been fed; it was a cry of hunger.
Li Mochou chuckled, âWhereâs my apprentice sister? Donât tell me that sheâs going to let her child starve to death?â
Yang Guo replied, âWho said its Gu Guâs child, its Hero Guoâs.â
Li Mochou said, âDo you think using Hero Guoâs name would scare me? If it were someone elseâs child, why would you risk life and limb for it, itâs got to be the bastard child of you and her.â
Yang Guo shouted angrily, âYes, I do want to marry Gu Gu but weâre not married yet, how can we have a child? Watch your words.â
Li Mochou scoffed, âIf you want me to watch my words then you should watch your actions.â
Yang Guo worshipped Xiao Longnu, how could he not be furious? He shouted, âMy Master is pure and chaste, donât tarnish her name.â
Li Mochou said, âPure and chaste sounds so nice, itâs just a shame that the virginity spot on her arm is gone.â
A whooshing sound was heard as Yang Guo thrust his sword towards her chest. He shouted, âYou can insult me but not my Master, Iâm going to kill you.â Whoosh, swish, swoosh; three strokes in a row were unleashed. His swordplay was clever, his eyes could see in the dark, Li Mochou only survived because she could hear the weapon coming through the air. Though she didnât get hit, these stances left her staring at death. Luckily for her, Yang Guo was watching out for the baby, he held back on his most threatening stances in case she decided to take the child with her.
The two of them fought for over ten stances when suddenly the baby gave a howling cry before falling silent.
