Li Zhongshun spoke, immediately raising his hand for a palm strike. Winds and clouds rose from his palm, there were even sounds of thunder exploding, as he struck towards Lu Chengfeng.
Lu Chengfeng had already mastered the Third Layer of Sword Intent. Since he began refining the Zhao Family Ancestor's gift, despite only doing it twice briefly, his vision and understanding of the Martial Path had undergone a tremendous transformation.
This palm carried the momentum of wind and thunder, but in his eyes it was full of flaws. To put it simply, it stirred Gang Wind with True Qi, creating lightning and thunder through intense friction.
He instantly saw that the core of this Cultivation Technique was the control of True Qi. The more refined and detailed the control, vibrating along special patterns and frequencies, one could unleash a strike accompanied by raging winds and thunder.
But Li Zhongshun was old and frail, his Spiritual Will had been worn down to that of an ordinary person. This palm was too slow, its True Qi too scattered, simply unable to withstand a blow.
Lu Chengfeng swiftly slapped back, empowered by True Qi, without using any formal technique, relying solely on speed.
Though he struck after, it was as swift as lightning; the other's Wind and Thunder Thunderbolt Palm was only half executed before his slap landed on the old fellow's face.
A loud, resounding smack!
Li Zhongshun's cheek immediately swelled red, stumbling to the ground, unable to get up for a long while.
"Old thing that won't die, are you not convinced?"
Lu Chengfeng, not in a hurry to proceed to the bridal sedan, walked over to Li Zhongshun and looked down at him, "I'm taking this woman away today, do you accept it or not?"
Li Zhongshun only felt fury surging to the top of his head, nearly losing his reason, "Damn it, damn it, you dare hit me, I will make you die, I will make you die!"
At this moment, the entire Zhongshun Hall was in chaos. Some clever ones ran outside, some went to notify the Li Family's ancestral residence, some went to the Celestial Patrol Department.
Lu Chengfeng did not obstruct them, allowing those people to leave. He stepped on Li Zhongshun's face, arrogantly saying, "Try saying one more thing, and I'll stomp your head to pieces."
"Everyone, stop!" At this moment, people from the Celestial Patrol Department finally arrived.
The Li Family had been monitoring Lu Chengfeng and his group's movements, and upon detecting them storming Zhongshun Hall, they immediately contacted the Celestial Patrol Department.
A Captain from the Celestial Patrol Department, leading more than twenty Warriors, rushed over with the fastest speed. After charging through the gate, they headed straight for Lu Chengfeng.
"Who are you? How dare you act recklessly in the Central Capital, immediately surrender and come with me to the Celestial Patrol Department. If you dare resist, there'll be no place for you in Central State."
The Celestial Patrol Department Captain, wearing Iron Armor and carrying a Steel Saber at his waist, proceeded towards Lu Chengfeng, righteously scolding him.
"I've been waiting for your Celestial Patrol Department, but it's a pity only a lackey came." Lu Chengfeng stepped on Li Zhongshun's head, slightly displeased, "You're not worthy of knowing my identity, go summon your superior."
"Outrageous!" The Captain's face immediately darkened, "Central Capital won't tolerate insolence from outsiders. I'll say this only once more, surrender now or suffer the consequences."
"You truly are full of nonsense!" Lu Chengfeng couldn't be bothered with this minion, his figure flashed like a phantom, and in an instant arrived next to the other.
"Not good!" Alarms rang in the Captain's mind, and he hurriedly moved to draw his saber, but before his hand reached the hilt, he was slapped hard to the ground.
"Such audacity, this is preposterous! In this age, someone dare to strike the Celestial Patrol Department's members?" Witnessing this, the remaining Warriors were not frightened but were enraged. Every one of them drew their sabers with a clang and charged straight at Lu Chengfeng.
These men were all well-trained; as they struck, their blades formed a continuous wave, layer upon layer, assaulting from all directions.
In the past, facing the siege of so many, Lu Chengfeng would have had to deploy his Body Technique, leveraging the advantages of his Lightweight Technique to use speed against slowness, or directly unleash Sword Qi to effortlessly dispatch and eradicate all.
But now he experienced something entirely different than before. Those seemingly synchronized slashes appeared slower in his eyes, with quickness and slowness, and many flawed angles.
He lightly extended two fingers, stepping into the wave of blades, precisely pinching their edges, then swept along a calculated angle. Instantly, seven or eight Steel Sabers collided together.
Lu Chengfeng took a step forward, naturally avoiding the slashes from behind and on both sides. With a slight force at his fingertips, he sent the Warrior holding the saber flying, crashing them towards the others behind.
The Warriors in the back hurriedly retracted their sabers, but were immediately toppled by the falling figure, tumbling on the ground like rolling gourds.
This all happened in a flash, with Lu Chengfeng making a small demonstration, realizing his control over battles had drastically improved compared to before.
He could precisely control all rhythm. The enemies seemed like mere puppets, following his lead.
After confirming his gains, he didn't want to bother with these men any longer, his figure flashed rapidly and hefty slaps landed successively.
Sounds of slap after slap rang out, leaving all the remaining standing Warriors on the ground, beaten black and blue, howling and wailing in misery.
