【Chapter 030】The Man in Black 1

Since the patrolling guard had just passed by the yard not long ago, no one else heard what the guard said except the man in black and Nangong Chenyu in the dark.

The man in black said nothing. He tapped the ground with his toes and flew into the air. He stepped on the flowers and plants in the yard several times and easily avoided the attack.

Seeing the black-clothed man's agility, the two guards' expressions became serious. As soon as the man in black approached, the two guards started fighting with him.

The three of them came and went.

The weapons used by the two guards were knives.

The soft sword in the black-clothed man's hand was like a flexible snake, which could not only be straightened but also bent. After more than ten moves, both guards had several cuts on their bodies from the soft swords.

One of the older guards, Ma Ge, asked as he beat him: "Who are you?"

The man in black said nothing, but his sword moves became more fierce. His purpose was simple, to kill two people.

The two guards naturally felt the murderous intent of the man in black, but their martial arts were not as good as the man in black, and even if the two of them joined forces, they were no match for the man in black.

Ma Ge said to the younger guard, "Xiao Li, go and call for help. I'll hold him back."

"Brother Ma, you..." Take care.

Before Xiao Li could utter the last two words, his arm was scratched by the black-clad man's soft sword again.

The man in black would not give the two men a chance to call for help. He knew that the longer he delayed, the more disadvantageous it would be for him. He made a feint and planned to deal with one first.

Just as his soft sword was about to pierce the heart of the man named Ma Ge, the next moment, a stone appeared from nowhere and hit his soft sword.

The sword bent and not only did he fail to kill Ma Ge, but his arm was cut by Ma Ge's knife.

"Puff~" The sound of the knife entering the flesh was heard.

Ma Ge never expected that he could stab the man in black. The knife was really an accident. But soon his joy turned into sorrow, as the man in black kicked him and he flew backwards three meters.

"Bang~" He fell to the ground and spat out a mouthful of blood.

The man in black covered his hands, took two steps back, and turned to look around.

Xiao Li thought that the man in black was going to take the opportunity to kill Ma Ge, and was about to step forward to stop him. As a result, he saw the man in black look around, then turn around and run away without any reluctance using his lightness skills.

"Don't run away if you have the guts. Fight me for another three hundred rounds."

Xiao Li shouted nonsense towards the black-clad man's back, but he didn't show any intention of chasing him. With his limited skills, let alone catching up, even if he catches up, he will just be killed.

He ran to Ma Ge's side and helped him up: "Ma Ge, how are you?"

Ma Ge waved his hand and said, "I'm fine. I won't die for now. Go and notify the patrolling guards and Butler Du."

"Okay, Brother Ma, just be careful." Xiao Li turned around and walked out of the yard.

The man in black used his lightness skills to leave Ye Mansion.

The deep darkness enveloped the street, with the occasional sound of night watchmen beating in the distance. The man in black walked forward for a distance before stopping. He turned around and looked at the empty street.

"You have followed me all the way, are you not going to show up?"

The bright moon hanging in the sky hid in the clouds at some point, and the stars in the sky also disappeared. A cool breeze blew, and raindrops fell like beads that had broken off the string.

The man in black stood in the rain, his eyes fixed in the direction of Ye Mansion, but no one came out of the darkness.

Just now when he was about to kill that Ma Ge, he was stopped by someone, and he knew that there was a master in the dark. After that, he felt that the feeling of being watched followed him everywhere, and it has not disappeared until now.

What the man in black didn’t know was that Nangong Chenyu returned to Yiran Ju after seeing the sky change. He is only at the first level of Qi training now and cannot condense a protective shield, but he doesn't want to get wet in the rain.

The reason why the man in black felt that someone was spying on him was because Nangong Chenyu had left a mark of his spiritual consciousness on him.

After a while, it started to rain heavily, as if the floodgates in the sky had opened, pouring water from the Milky Way down, making it impossible to resist.

In an instant, the man in black was soaked all over.

He wiped the rain off his face, turned around and disappeared into the night.
