"Brother Zhong, look at that man, doesn't he look like Leader Li?"
At the gate of Guangnan County, Feng He pointed to the departing figure on horseback outside the city.
"Feng He, why don't you just quit and go home to set up a stall?"
Lü Zhong looked helpless.
Although he had just been checking the information of people entering the city, he recognized Li Fan when Li Fan appeared.
Li Fan left the city without even bringing any wolves, which was precisely to conceal his identity.
As a result, Feng He even shouted out, "How can someone like this survive here?"
You might get killed one day because you lack discernment.
"Brother Zhong, I'm sorry, I was wrong!"
Feng He then realized that he had said the wrong thing.
"From now on, do more and talk less!"
Just as the two were talking, someone from the caravan that was queuing to enter the city quietly walked to a secluded spot on the city wall.
A black bird flew out from his sleeve and then disappeared into the sky.
......
"Qing'er, the wind is rising!"
Someone was speaking on the hilltop.
The man was dressed in a white robe, and his face was as beautiful as jade.
A woman stood next to the man.
Yuan Qing was dressed in a black robe, always with his knife in hand, and his eyes were sharp.
"I don't know you well!"
"You're still so cold!"
Just then, a dark shadow flew in from afar like an arrow.
Lu Yuchen reached out his hand, and the black bird landed steadily.
"Finally out!"
"Ready to move out!"
Birds startled in the mountains.
One after another, dark figures rode off and disappeared into the mountains and forests.
......
Fifty li north along the county road, you officially leave the territory of Guangnan County.
The horses were panting heavily as they walked along the county road.
Li Fan put a Crimson Blood Pill into his mouth, waiting for it to explode with spiciness and activate the Blood Drinking ability.
If it were someone who couldn't eat spicy food, they probably wouldn't be able to swallow this pill.
After traveling another five miles, a chevaux-de-frise lay across the county road.
A blood-red flag was planted in the soil, with the words "Blood Clothes" written on it.
......
"Brothers, we really have no money!"
Before the barricades, a middle-aged man looked embarrassed. He was wearing a tattered undershirt and leading a skinny horse.
A woman was lying on the horse's back, with bags hanging on both sides.
The woman's body rose and fell intermittently, accompanied by coughing sounds.
Each cough was accompanied by an unpleasant herbal smell and strange fragrance.
"Don't get in my way."
The man guarding the gate said impatiently, "Get lost if you don't have money."
"Sir, please have mercy!"
"My wife is in poor health and we need to go to Tianguang County to find a famous doctor to treat her."
The middle-aged man clasped his hands in a pleading manner: "All the money in our family has been used for medical treatment, we really have no money left..."
"Go to hell!"
The gatekeeper kicked the middle-aged man away, then said coldly, "If you have money, get through; if you don't, get lost!"
"If you say another word, I'll send you on your way right now!"
The surrounding merchants and customers seemed oblivious to their presence.
Only those who were a little further away from the queue dared to discuss it.
"How pitiful!"
"Hey bro, who's that group up ahead?"
"You don't even know the Blood-Clad Thief? He's the most notorious gangster in Guangfeng County!"
"Ah! Doesn't the Guangfeng County government do anything about them?"
"The government has no say in this."
"I heard that the leader of the Blood-Clad Bandits recently successfully advanced to the eighth-rank Sky Soaring Realm!"
"Shh, keep your voice down!"
The crowd is moving forward.
The middle-aged man knelt on the ground, pleading repeatedly, "Gentlemen, please have mercy!"
Passing merchants paid no attention to him.
Soon, Li Fan's horse stopped in front of the checkpoint.
The man got up and rushed to the front of the horse.
Thump!
Thump!
Thump!
He knelt on the ground, kowtowing as he pleaded, "Young master, please help me!"
"I left Qingyang Town and spent all my belongings on the way to see a doctor."
"I'm utterly broke, please, sir, have mercy and spare me a little silver!"
Qingyang Town!
What a coincidence!
Li Fan remained silent and urged his horse forward.
"You, dismount and pay up!"
The gatekeeper stepped forward, but Li Fan ignored him.
"Hey, I've run into someone who's not afraid of death!"
"Want to be a hero? Grandpa'll send you to the afterlife first..."
A flash of black light appeared, and the guard's voice abruptly stopped.
He held the knife, his eyes devoid of any life.
Bang!
Smoke and dust rose, and the man collapsed to the ground with a thud.
Blood splattered, and the body was severed from its head.
"Murder!"
"Run!"
"That damned bastard, how dare he try to break through the barrier! Kill him!"
The screams of passing caravans mingled with the roars of the blood-clad bandits.
More than ten martial artists rushed towards Li Fan at the same time.
The black blade gleamed like a swimming dragon.
Two breaths later, all the blood-clad thieves lay dead on the county road.
"He... he actually dared to kill the Blood-Clad Thief!"
"Quickly, let's head back!"
"We can't stay here!"
"If the Blood-Clad Thieves catch up, we'll all die!"
"run!"
The caravans that came and went were first eerily silent, and then they began to flee for their lives.
Only the middle-aged man led the skinny horse to Li Fan's side.
"Woman, wake up! Thank you, young master!"
"Cough...cough...cough."
The woman slowly rose, accompanied by a violent cough.
As she stood up, the herbal scent, mixed with exotic fragrance, became even stronger.
"Brother Pin...!"
"Give...this young master...some local specialties from Qingyang Town!"
The woman's face was sallow, and she spoke haltingly.
The man patted his head, then reached into the package. "Please wait a moment, sir. I'll get you some specialties from Qingyang Mountain. You must accept them."
"I have never seen you in Qingyang Town!"
Li Fan's voice came through, and the woman stopped coughing.
The man's smile froze.
What a coincidence?
This place was carefully chosen by them.
"This... young master, make your move!"
The woman's intermittent voice suddenly became sharp.
The man's hand had already been pulled out of the package.
The gleaming steel blade, amplified by the protective aura, unleashed a sonic boom.
A silvery-white streak shot straight at Li Fan's face.
On horseback, inside the woman's body, a powerful wind trembled.
The green poisonous cloud enveloped Li Fan under the influence of innate qi.
At the same time, she waved her hands, creating afterimages, and countless silver needles as fine as hairs struck Li Fan's body.
"Li Fan, so what if you see through it all?"
"You've been poisoned by the 'Power-Dissolving Powder,' today is your day to die..."
The sound abruptly stopped.
The black blade light, carrying an irresistible force, knocked the silver needles away before slashing through.
The woman's head flew into the air.
Li Fan turned his head, and the blade flashed on his shoulder.
Clang!
The steel knife tore through the clothes, and was then knocked away.
The man's pupils suddenly contracted.
"You don't have Zhonghua Gong San?"
"It hit, but it's useless!"
When a strange fragrance enters the body, it takes root in the true energy. Once the true energy is circulated, one will notice that the circulation of true energy is not smooth.
If it were any other martial artist, they probably wouldn't realize it until they made their move.
Li Fan was constantly cultivating, and he immediately sensed something was wrong.
However, this poison was useless against Blood Drinker.
Simply wrap the fragrance with your true energy, and then remove it.
The reason he didn't act immediately was because Li Fan wanted to lure out all the assassins and deal with them all at once.
After Li Fan finished speaking, the power of his Mountain-Shaking Fist poured out.
Bang!
A cloud of blood mist exploded.
The innate protective energy dispersed the poisonous mist.
Li Fan sheathed his sword and continued forward.
As he left the city, he knew the journey would not be peaceful.
They really went to great lengths to kill their own people.
Two naturally gifted assassins were used to scout ahead.
