Ye Qing led the group sprinting madly through the stone corridor, but without Inner Strength, his running speed was ultimately a bit slower in this situation. After they'd run less than one hundred meters in the corridor, Third Brother had already caught up from behind.
"Stop!" Third Brother roared angrily, suddenly pouncing forward and slamming Ye Qing straight to the ground.
Ye Qing had long been on guard. As Third Brother lunged at him, Ye Qing's dagger in his hand stabbed back in a flash. Third Brother was caught off guard and Ye Qing jabbed him right in the lower abdomen, making him let out a howl of pain.
Although Ye Qing managed to wound Third Brother, he also lost his chance to escape. Over a dozen men pounced on him at the same time from behind, and they finally pinned Ye Qing to the ground.
