"What I want to ask for your help is…"
"There seems to be an uninvited guest!"
Huh?
But at that moment, Zheng-Fu suddenly felt the energy waves from more than ten great skilled martial masters in his tavern. Each of them was releasing killing intent without hiding anything, and everyone's energy level was at the Deity Soul stage.
"They followed me. I have also brought you problems. I must apologize…"
"Don't think too much. If this is about the survival of the sect, I'm happy to help. But first, we should get out of here. I don't want other innocent people to suffer too!" Zheng-Fu did not blame this young woman and was ready to help her.
Ah!
"Then I'll lure them away from here. You can stay here. It won't take long to deal with them…"
"I'll go with you too. You alone can't handle those many great skilled martial masters. Even if your energy level is at the fifth level of the Deity Soul stage but you're weak right now, it would be difficult to fight that pack of dogs. Better let me help you!"
Zheng-Fu interrupted the young woman again as if he was teasing her. But in fact, he wanted to help her and could not let her carry the burden alone while she was still injured. She could not fight those many great skilled martial masters right now.
"How did you know that I was injured? And how do you know my true energy level? I have kept it well hidden. Unless you're at the Deity Soul stage as well!" The young woman could not help but be startled again.
"Let's talk about that later. Let's go out now, and... take this pill and try it. In case your internal injury gets better!" Zheng-Fu did not have enough time to explain. Because those great skilled martial masters were about to take action. They must hurry outside. And before leaving, Zheng-Fu gave her a vial of wound-healing pills he had concocted.
Hah!
Grab!
"What kind of pill is this?"
"Wound-healing medicine. It can treat both internal and external injuries. Although it's not very good, it should help to some extent. Well, let's go!"
Umm!
Whoosh! Whoosh!
In a corner inside Zheng-Fu's tavern...
"They're out of here, Chief!"
"Umm! Hurry after them. Anyway, today we've to get rid of her!"
"What about the young man with her, Chief?"
"Deal with him too. We can't let anyone know about this. Since that youth was with her, we had to shut his mouth too. Don't care who he is!"
"Yes, sir!"
These mysterious great skilled martial masters communicated through telepathy. When they saw Li-Xiao-Yue and Zheng-Fu leaving the tavern, they immediately followed the two away. Their primary target was Li-Xiao-Yue.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
After leaving the tavern, Zheng-Fu and Li-Xiao-Yue then headed towards a quiet place. Because they both did not want other people who were not involved to be in trouble.
In the woods outside the city, far from the crowds...
Thump! Thump!
"This place should be suitable." After arriving in the woods outside the city, Zheng-Fu told the young woman to stop at this place.
Umm!
"Come out now!"
Crack! Crack!
"You actually came out deliberately from that tavern. Or have you decided to die?" A middle-aged man, the group's leader, spoke up with a sneer after many figures walked out from behind a large bush.
"I wonder who is going to die, you or me. But with only a few of you guys together, can you really fight? Last time you guys came more than this and still couldn't do anything to me!" However, Li-Xiao-Yue did not care about the other party's words. Moreover, she sneered back as well.
Damn it!
"Be cocky, you bastard girl! Even though this time our people came less than last time, don't forget that you're injured. You won't survive!" Despite having received a fierce response, the middle-aged man remained calm and still. He was confident that he and his gang would definitely be able to get rid of the young woman.
"Huh! Then, you guys can try showing me. But first, me and my comrade have to show you guys something!" Finished speaking, the young woman had a sly and terrifying smile on the corners of her mouth.
Huh!?
Whoosh!!!
Slash!
Ah!
After Li-Xiao-Yue finished speaking, one of the assassins was pierced in the back by a mysterious long knife through his body at the pole of the heart. It caused him to die instantly without knowing it.
"Hah! Wha... what... What happened!!?"
The group leader's face immediately turned pale. He did not think Li-Xiao-Yue had another assistant. And that person also could erase his aura without leaving any traces. That meant he had to be very strong. The group leader did not even notice that Zheng-Fu, who was beside Li-Xiao-Yue earlier, had disappeared now.
Whooooosh!
Slash!
Ah!
A few minutes later, another assassin was killed just like the previous one. Because they spread out in positions that were apart from each other, they were easy targets for assassination.
In a corner inside Zheng-Fu's tavern...
"Yes, sir, Chief!"
Flap! Flap! Flap!
All assassins did not delay and hurriedly soared out together as their chief ordered immediately.
"I didn't think you'd have the others in your group, besides… Huh! He's gone! Where did the other one go?" Just as the group leader was talking about young woman's group members, he suddenly noticed that Zheng-Fu had disappeared. "Or that your assistant is…" An idea appeared in his mind. But he could not believe it.
Flap!
"That's right! It was me who killed those two of your underlings!" At the same moment, Zheng-Fu suddenly appeared beside Li-Xiao-Yue like a ghost, before mocking the assassin group leader.
Ah!
"How is that possible? You're just an initial Deity Soul stage cultivator, how is it possible that I can't see your movements!" The assassin group leader said in disbelief that it was Zheng-Fu's work. But Zheng-Fu's ability to erase traces was real, he, therefore, could not deny that he could not see where Zheng-Fu had disappeared just now.
"It doesn't matter if I have a lower energy level than you. It only depends on who is smarter. And all of you are just stupid idiots who don't learn to investigate the other's information well. Just seeing what level my energy is, you thought it'd be easy to defeat me. What a fool!" Zheng-Fu replied indifferently to the middle-aged man. And he also cursed and insulted the other party for being stupid.
"You... You!"
The faces of all the assassins suddenly reddened with anger because Zheng-Fu's cursing had deeply hurt their pride and made them furious.
"Cocky boy! I'll teach you a lesson today," an assassin who was at the fourth level of the Deity Soul stage shouted angrily. Before he rushed toward Zheng-Fu with all his energy.
Yaaaaaaak!!!
Huh!
[Flying Saber Cut Through the Sky Stance Skill]
Whoosh!!!
Huh!?
Cleng! Cleng! Cleng! Cleng!
Slash! Slash!
Augh!
The assassin who jumped in furiously at first now had a bad expression. Because he could only defend Zheng-Fu's flying saber stance skill and had to quickly retreat after being injured by the flying saber.
The assassin group leader did not go in to help or prohibit his underling at all. Because he also wanted to know how talented Zheng-Fu was. The fact that his underling could not counter the attack to the point of retreating like this made him realize that the other party had quite a great skill. Although his energy level was lower than theirs, his abilities were much higher than what could be seen by the naked eye. And at that moment he thought of a rumor.
"Could it be that this young man was the person in the rumor?"
"You mean the main academy's main disciple who can defeat the Demon Sect disciple, right?"
His underlings had heard that rumor as well. But they had never seen the real young man mentioned in the rumor. However, it was just an assumption that they could not confirm.
[Sky Thunder, Heavenly Star Flying Saber Stance Skill]
Scorching! Scorching! Scorching!
Huh!?
"Is that a Sky Thunder, Heavenly Star Clan's skill? Why can this young man use it?"
They still had not recovered from the shock of the previous issue; a new issue was added. This Sky Thunder, Heavenly Star Flying Saber stance that Zheng-Fu used, actually, just looked similar but not the real stance skill of Sky Thunder, Heavenly Star Clan. Zheng-Fu just borrowed the technique and adapted it to himself and tried it out.
Booooooom!!!
Arrrgh!!!
Thump!
And with this Sky Thunder, Heavenly Star Flying Saber stance, in the end, the assassin who collided with Zheng-Fu was struck by lightning, leaving his body charred. Because he was so stunned that he forgot to defend.
"Does anyone else want to come in? Or you guys can come in together at the same time, it's all right!"
Zheng-Fu's actions from the beginning until now had not only shocked the assassins, but Li-Xiao-Yue also felt the same. She did not expect Zheng-Fu to have this much talent. He could kill three great skilled martial masters with higher energy levels than himself in a short time. He also dared to deal with the rest of the assassins alone. So she did not know whether to say that he was crazy or brave.
"Don't boast too much, Boy! Even though you can reduce our number, the rest of us can easily kill you and that girl!" Zheng-Fu's defiance made the assassin group leader furious. He did not think that a young generation like Zheng-Fu would dare to insult him who was an elder and stronger than him.
"Too much? Huh! It's even too little! Anyway, an idiot and fool like you couldn't understand what I said. You better come in, so no more time wasted!"
Indeed, Zheng-Fu did not intend to fight these assassins himself. But he tried to delay them as long as possible. Because his real plan was to slaughter these people with the spell tactical formation he had created, which would soon become active.
