Chapter 608: You Nianchu's Talent!

Lin Yuan stared at the teachers and students with a short blade pressed against their necks...

The silver needle on Lin Yuan's fingertip trembled slightly.

"Drop your hands and raise them to surrender! Otherwise, we'll kill someone right now!" the Thunder Tiger Sect bandits snarled angrily.

Anger and worry intertwined in Lin Yuan's eyes.

He knew…… that a head‑on clash would only harm the innocent.

After a moment's thought, Lin Yuan slowly loosened his clenched fist.

He slowly raised both arms over his head, his tone tinged with helplessness: "I surrender. Don't hurt them."

Seeing this, the remnants of the Thunder Tiger Sect all broke out in vicious laughter.

The Azure Dragon Dharma Protector snapped coldly, "Throw away the silver needle in your hand, no tricks!"

Hearing that, Lin Yuan could only toss out all the silver needles between his hands.

The Azure Dragon and White Tiger Dharma Protectors sneered, "If you'd done that earlier, it would've been over! Be honest—if you try any tricks, these people will die first!"

Saying that, several bandits stepped forward, moving closer to Lin Yuan step by step...

These bandits focused all their attention on Lin Yuan.

They didn't notice the slightest movement in the corner at all.

At that moment, You Nianchu…… was taking advantage of the bandits' fixation on Lin Yuan and their lowered guard......

You Nianchu slipped quietly from the corner......

She followed the wall...... quickly moving to the pillar behind the bandits.

She clenched several slender silver needles in her palm......

These were the ones she had snatched from the podium during Lin Yuan's teaching demonstration earlier, taking advantage of the chaos.

She had originally been just playing with them out of curiosity, but now they had become a weapon for counterattack.

You Nianchu drew a deep breath, her eyes locked tightly on the several bandits holding knives to the students.

She recalled…… the angle and force with which Lin Yuan had fired the silver needles earlier.

Then, You Nianchu exerted a slight force with her fingertips and quickly flipped her wrist.

The next second, she struck!

"Whoosh! whoosh! whoosh!" several soft sounds!

Several silver needles, carrying a fierce gust, shot precisely toward the bandits' knife‑wielding wrists.

"Ugh!" several cries of pain rang out simultaneously!

Those bandits' wrists were instantly struck by the silver needles, their acupoints sealed!

Those bandits' arms instantly went limp and weak......

The short blades in their hands clanged "clang‑clang" as they fell to the ground.

Several bandits were stunned......

They instinctively bent to pick up the knives, but then realized......

Their wrists wouldn't obey, so they could only stare in shock behind them.

Lin Yuan's pupils contracted sharply, his whole body jolted!

Disbelief was written all over Lin Yuan's face......

He never expected that You Nianchu…… would dare to strike suddenly in such a perilous situation?!

What shocked Lin Yuan even more was that this girl…… had secretly mastered his silver‑needle hidden‑weapon technique.

Just earlier, Lin Yuan had merely been giving a practical demonstration in class......

As a result, You Nianchu this girl…… had merely stolen a moment of his teaching and already succeeded in learning from him?!

She could not only accurately seal the acupoints…… but also the force and angle of her strike…… were quite methodical,?!

This girl, she doesn't look at all like a first‑time user of silver needles!

Lin Yuan's heart was filled with astonishment and wonder—this girl's martial talent had actually become terrifying to this extent?

The bandits were thrown into disarray by this sudden ambush…… their formation broken, they were momentarily at a loss.

The hostaged teachers and students also seized the chance to react......

Some of the teachers and students bent to dodge the blades at their necks, while others shoved forward the bandits in front of them......

The situation in the hall instantly reversed.

At that very moment, Lin Yuan seized the fleeting opening and struck instantly!

His body moved like lightning, pushing off the balls of his feet to leap into the bandit crowd!

Earlier, the murderous aura Lin Yuan had restrained while feigning surrender...... now burst forth completely!

As Lin Yuan's hands flew, the Bone‑Dislocation Technique was deployed with precision.

Lin Yuan charged into the bandit throng, engaging in close‑quarters combat!

He locked his fingertip tightly onto a bandit's shoulder bone, then exerted a little force!

Then came a soft "crack!"

That bandit's shoulder joint dislocated; he cried out in pain, fell to the ground, and his short blade flew from his hand.

The remaining bandits, seeing this……% hurriedly brandished their knives to surround and attack.

But Lin Yuan remained agile, weaving through the blades' light and shadow!

While dodging the incoming blades, he struck with his elbows and pressed with his fingertips!

Each close‑in move was accompanied by the crisp sound of bones dislocating…… and the bandits' wails!

Some bandits had their wrist bones dislocated, and their short blades fell to the ground with a sound;

Some had their knee bones dislocated, staggered, knelt down, and could never stand again;

Someone else tried to ambush from behind, but Lin Yuan seized their spine point with a reverse hand……their whole body went limp and they collapsed!

Groups of bandits were successively immobilized by the Bone-Dislocation Technique, unable to get within half a step of him.

"You Nianchu! Three on the left, aim for their Quchi Points!" Lin Yuan, while subduing enemies, glanced at You Nianchu beside him, giving rapid on‑spot instructions.

"Sink your wrist power, tilt the Silver Needle upward thirty degrees, and use the strong wind to guide the needle more accurately!"

Lin Yuan shouted, "This is me teaching You Nianchu hidden‑weapon technique!"

At this moment, the situation was urgent; in order to swiftly rescue the Martial Arts Club's teachers and students……

Therefore, Lin Yuan had to impart the Silver Needle technique on the spot, allowing no hesitation.

You Nianchu heard this, her beautiful eyes lit up!

She immediately gripped the remaining Silver Needles in her hand, remembered Lin Yuan's orders, and locked her gaze on the three bandits on the left who were about to surround Lin Yuan.

You Nianchu took a deep breath, sank her wrist to exert force, adjusted the angle, and then flung it out forcefully!

Three Silver Needles, carrying a fierce gust, accurately struck the Quchi Points of the three bandits.

The three bandits' arms instantly went numb……

The three men's sabers clanged to the ground.

The three bandits had just wanted to retreat……when Lin Yuan seized the opportunity to close in.

Lin Yuan, with a reverse hand……dislocated the knees of the three……

The three crashed heavily to the ground, wailing.

"Excellent! Now try the Jianjing Point against those attacking from behind!" Lin Yuan, while sidestepping a blade, continued his instructions.

You Nianchu, gifted with extraordinary talent, grasped it instantly!

In just a few short seconds she mastered the essentials.

As You Nianchu turned her wrist, the Silver Needle shot out again!

"Pfft‑pfft‑pfft!"

Her Silver Needle accurately struck the Jianjing Points of the two bandits who ambushed Lin Yuan from behind!

You Nianchu perfectly coordinated with Lin Yuan to complete a pincer attack.

One close, one far; one martial, one weapon!

The two joined forces strongly, and the situation completely turned in their favor.

The remaining remnants of the Thunder Tiger Sect, seeing their companions fall one after another, had long lost the will to resist……

At this moment, the Azure Dragon Dharma Protector and the White Tiger Dharma Protector tried to join forces to surround and capture Lin Yuan……

As a result, Lin Yuan flashed with his movement, rushed forward, and applied the Bone-Dislocation Technique……crack, crack!!

The Azure Dragon and the White Tiger had almost all of their bones dislocated.

These two Thunder Tiger Sect Dharma Protectors wailed, spat blood profusely, and collapsed to the ground!

Some remnants of the Thunder Tiger Sect tried to turn and flee……

but were struck by You Nianchu's Silver Needle on an acupoint, rendering them immobile;

Someone tried to make a last stand, but as soon as they rushed forward they were immobilized by Lin Yuan's Bone-Dislocation Technique.

In just a moment, all the Thunder Tiger Sect remnants inside the hall were completely subdued……

A group of Thunder Tiger Sect remnants lay on the ground, wailing without cease……

These bandits no longer bore their former ferocity.

Lin Yuan quickly stepped forward and freed the bound Teacher Cai Zhengfang and the students.

The Martial Arts Club's students……helped each other up and checked their injuries.

"Are you all okay? Is anyone seriously injured?" Lin Yuan spoke calmly, his gaze sweeping over the crowd.

The students shook their heads, indicating they were fine.

Lin Yuan saw that everyone mostly had superficial injuries, and only then did he slightly relax.

Cai Zhengfang clutched his chest as he rose, his face full of guilt and gratitude.

"Teacher Lin, thanks to you and fellow student You Nianchu, otherwise we'd all have been done in today."

The students also gathered around, repeatedly thanking the two, their eyes full of admiration.

You Nianchu stood beside Lin Yuan, her fingertips still pinching the remaining Silver Needles.

Her pretty face still bore a faint blush, yet she could not hide the excitement in her eyes……

Just now, her practical coordination and rapid learning of techniques……made You Nianchu increasingly enamored of ancient martial arts and Silver Needle technique……

You Nianchu lifted her gaze……sweeping over the group of wailing Thunder Tiger Sect remnants on the ground……

Her fingertips……still pinched the remaining Silver Needles, her face full of excitement she could not conceal.

You Nianchu's eyes sparkled, and she quickly walked toward Lin Yuan……

Little girl, her voice tinged with eager pride: "Teacher Lin, how did I do just now? Was I accurate?"

She slightly tilted her head, her eyes full of anticipation……

This girl clearly yearned for Lin Yuan's recognition and praise.

Cai Zhengfang clutched his chest as he rose, just happening to hear this……

Teacher Cai Zhengfang quickly echoed: "You Nianchu, despite your young age, you possess such skill—truly impressive, thanks to you and Teacher Lin!"

The students also nodded in praise……

The male students gazed at You Nianchu, their eyes full of admiration.

Lin Yuan looked at her excited expression, about to respond……

But just at this moment……

The Azure Dragon Dharma Protector, who had been lying on the ground on the brink of death……suddenly flared with a fierce light in his eyes!

Azure Dragon's hostile aura burst out all over his body in an instant; he fiercely flipped and leapt up!

Azure Dragon's movements……were as swift as a crouching leopard, showing no sign of serious injury at all!

Obviously, his earlier weakness was entirely a deliberate feint, just to wait for this moment's opening.

Azure Dragon teleported forward! He charged straight at You Nianchu!

You Nianchu was caught off guard, having no time to react at all!

He grabbed her neck with one hand, his arm locking tightly around her waist……

Azure Dragon's other hand swiftly snatched up a fallen Long Sword from the ground!

The sharp blade instantly rested against the side of her neck.

Azure Dragon's eyes turned sinister; he clenched his arm tight, and the blade immediately sliced You Nianchu's delicate neck skin.

A thread of blood slowly seeped out along the blade.

Blood, trickling down You Nianchu's snow‑white neck……

The icy sensation and sharp sting struck simultaneously.

At this moment, You Nianchu's pretty face turned deathly pale……

"Lin Yuan! Take another step forward and I'll kill her—I mean it!" Azure Dragon's voice was hoarse yet full of brutality.

At this moment, Azure Dragon's temples bulged with veins, his eyes churning with mad cruelty.

His blade pressed a little deeper into You Nianchu's neck……

You Nianchu's blood seeped out faster, staining the edge of her collar red.

You Nianchu, strangled, felt her breathing constrict; the fierce pain at her neck made her brows knit, yet she forced herself not to struggle,

She merely turned her head to look at Lin Yuan, a flicker of panic flashing in her eyes……

Cai Zhengfang's face was full of anxiety, yet he could do nothing.

The students too were frightened into silence, not daring to breathe……

The air on the scene seemed to congeal……

Only Azure Dragon's heavy panting and You Nianchu's suppressed breathing remained.

Lin Yuan's steps halted abruptly; seeing the blood seeping from You Nianchu's neck, his pupils contracted sharply.

Lin Yuan felt his heart clenched tight, both angry and anxious.

Lin Yuan stared fixedly at Azure Dragon, his teeth grinding audibly.

Lin Yuan said in a low voice: "Release You Nianchu!"

"Are you not looking for me? I'll go with you! Let this girl go, I promise not to resist, and will obediently follow you back to Thunder Tiger Sect! If you want my traditional medical secrets, I can give them to you!"
