“You’re right. We have no grudges against each other and don’t even know each other, but someone wants the five of us to kill you.”
However, in my opinion, for five people to kill one of you is giving you far too much credit.
Since you want to know who we are? And I have a habit of making sure the victim knows my identity before I kill someone.
Actually, to be honest, the three of us are your senior brothers, that is, outer disciples of the Qingfeng Gang. It's just that the three of us haven't appeared in the gang for a long time, so you don't recognize us right now.
As for the other two, they were assassins from the martial arts world.
A middle-aged man with a fierce face approached Lin Xiaofei while sneering.
His name was Li Yiming. Before he ambushed Lin Xiaofei here, he already knew that Lin Xiaofei had the realm of an ordinary mid-stage martial artist and had mastered a powerful palm technique. His strength could be displayed at the level of an ordinary late-stage martial artist.
Of the five of them, three were close to the peak of the ordinary level, while the other two had just entered the early stage of the entry-level martial artist, but their realm was not yet stable.
All five of them were far more skilled than Lin Xiaofei. In his view, killing one person was as easy as killing a small fish.
"Senior brother?"
Puzzled, Lin Xiaofei's mind raced, and a figure appeared in his mind, saying:
"So you're my fellow disciple. If I'm not mistaken, you were sent by Guo Zishan, weren't you?"
He was still guessing who was targeting him when the other party suddenly mentioned the word "senior brother," which reminded him that he had never offended anyone in recent times, except for Guo Zishan.
A few days ago, Guo Zishan challenged him, and he defeated him in one move in front of many people, making Guo Zishan lose face.
Moreover, his master had previously told him that Guo Zishan had been working very hard to cultivate over the past few years in order to compete for first place in the martial arts competition and thus obtain the generous reward for first place.
However, he defeated Guo Zishan with a single palm strike, which meant that Guo Zishan could clearly see the difference in strength between the two of them in advance, and also made Guo Zishan realize that there was no hope of winning the first place in the martial arts competition.
Therefore, he suspected that Guo Zishan had bribed these people to kill him.
"Hmm? There's another person hiding in the bushes in the distance, it looks like Guo Zishan."
Extending his spiritual perception, Lin Xiaofei immediately sensed a familiar figure in the distant bushes. Upon seeing the five people in front of him, he paused for a moment, and then immediately knew the answer in his mind.
"Don't let him get away, let's make our move quickly."
One of the thin men, Lin Tong looked somewhat uneasy. He said coldly, took a step forward, and rushed forward.
In an instant, without hesitation, the five people moved like lightning, like five wild wolves rushing towards Lin Xiaofei.
The three men, each wielding a long sword, rushed towards Lin Xiaofei with incredible speed, brandishing their swords and slashing down rapidly.
In their eyes, although Lin Xiaofei was weak, someone wanted them to kill him in one move, so the five of them joined forces and launched a full-force attack.
Moreover, they knew that Lin Xiaofei was a disciple of the Right Protector. If Lin Xiaofei escaped, even if the five of them managed to escape, they would be relentlessly hunted down. They didn't want to live like that.
Therefore, he showed no mercy.
"boom!"
A yellowish-brown, arched wall appeared out of thin air beside Lin Xiaofei, like an extremely hard diamond, directly blocking the fierce attack of the five people.
Spells, earthen wall spells.
When he first started practicing this spell, he found that his progress was relatively slow. In the end, he gradually accelerated his progress to the Great Perfection stage by consuming the herbs grown in the Space Bead.
The moment he releases the Earth Wall Technique, an earthen wall will appear, and even if he attacks with all his might, it will take five sword strikes to shatter it.
As Lin Xiaofei ran, he suddenly released an earth wall technique in mid-air, which directly blocked the powerful attack of the five people. Then he leaped and rushed towards the side of Xiaoyunpo.
"Quickly, give chase! We can't let him escape towards the town."
One of the men shouted and rushed forward, blocking the road that Lin Xiaofei might be taking to escape back into the town.
Seeing that the other party was blocking his way, Lin Xiaofei changed direction and rushed directly into the woods of Xiaoyunpo. As long as he entered the woods and hid, he could enter the spatial bead without anyone noticing, and then deal with these five people.
Soon, the five people spread out at a certain distance and chased after the person running fast ahead.
Suddenly, Lin Xiaofei saw a dilapidated earthen-tiled house in front of him, which was the only dozen or so houses in Xiaoyunpo, and also the dilapidated Taoist temple.
On a sudden inspiration, Lin Xiaofei gradually approached the Taoist temple, preparing to rush into the dilapidated temple, then hide to avoid being surrounded by the five people, and then kill them one by one.
However, just as Lin Xiaofei was about to rush into the dilapidated Taoist temple, only a hundred meters away, an old man came out of the temple. Lin Xiaofei looked at him...
He glanced at his eyes and muttered to himself, "
"Oh no, I forgot there's an old man here. If we lure those five people over, he'll be in trouble too."
As he ran, thinking to himself, Lin Xiaofei quickly abandoned his plan to enter the Taoist temple and turned to rush towards the woods behind it, not wanting to implicate the old man.
Soon, Lin Xiaofei rushed into the woods behind the Taoist temple.
At the same time, a voice came from the distance behind, saying:
The old man saw our faces. Two men went and killed him, and the three of us continued chasing Lin Xiaofei.
"Can the three of you catch up with Lin Xiaofei?"
Another man's voice came through.
"Don't worry, there's no way to escape behind Xiaoyunpo. Lin Xiaofei won't get away. The three of us will go after him first. You guys kill the old man and come over here quickly."
...
The moment Lin Xiaofei rushed into the woods, he glanced back and saw that only three people were rushing up, so he hid inside the spatial bead.
Soon, the three people gradually approached each other. As soon as they reached the edge of the woods, Lin Xiaofei took action and rushed out of the spatial bead.
A long sword appeared in his hand, and he slashed out like a howling wind.
The longsword left a trail of afterimages, flashing incessantly, its cold light slicing through the sky, causing the air to whistle and crackle.
Eight Winds Sword Technique!
Chase
The three people who came up were startled.
Two of them noticed that Lin Xiaofei's aura was like a small whirlwind, even stronger than their own. They immediately unleashed their full power and slashed at him with their swords.
The other person, Li Yiming, was also wielding a long sword.
This strike was like a rainbow piercing the sun.
However, Lin Xiaofei's swordsmanship was even faster, directly slicing through the sky.
Sizzle!
"ah!"
"ah!"
Blood splattered, and two arms flew into the air. The Lin brothers, Tong and Qing, paled and cried out in pain.
The arms of the two men holding the long swords were severed and fell to the ground quickly.
With a swift stroke, Lin Xiaofei's sword flashed past, its power immense, simultaneously deflecting another person's longsword.
"What was that just now? He actually appeared out of thin air and came out of the woods. What kind of trick is that?"
Furthermore, your cultivation level is far beyond that of a typical mid-stage martial artist.
The two brothers, Lin Tong and Lin Qing, were shocked and terrified. After their arms were broken, they cried out in pain in shock.
Appearing out of nowhere from the forest was too bizarre. The two brothers had never seen such a method before; it was not a strange technique possessed by martial artists.
At the same time, Lin Xiaofei's martial arts prowess surpassed that of the two of them, and was estimated to have reached the level of an ordinary peak martial artist. His strength was formidable, and the aura emanating from his blood was extremely powerful.
Moreover, they had a vague feeling that if Lin Xiaofei used his seemingly out-of-nowhere abilities to ambush them, it would be terrifying.
"You'll find out what methods I have when you get to the underworld."
Lin Xiaofei's initially gloomy mood immediately improved.
He was a little worried when facing five people before, so he didn't make a move. Now that three people have been suddenly ambushed by him, he has gained the upper hand and no longer needs to worry.
Moreover, when the other person slashed at him earlier, Li Yiming was the only one who wasn't injured by his sword. He quickly realized that the other person was of a higher level than him and was a mid-level martial artist.
Fortunately, he had ambushed the three of them, so he quickly discovered their individual strength levels. The strength of that first-rate martial artist was not too far from his own.
"The information we received was incorrect."
Li Yiming gave Lin Xiaofei a cold look, his expression changed, he bit his lip, and said:
Although our information was incorrect, your martial arts level is only at the peak of the ordinary level. In front of a mid-level martial artist like me, your strength is nothing at all.
As he spoke, Li Yiming took a step forward, moving swiftly like a nimble snake, and in an instant rushed over, his long sword dancing wildly, the blade like a whirlwind, directly slashing towards Lin Xiaofei's head.
Mad Shadow Blade Technique!
"My strength is nothing? Then let me show you my methods."
Lin Xiaofei raised the corner of his mouth, spun his longsword, and flew away like a gust of wind, the blade emitting a soft hum.
He activated the Crimson Copper Body Technique, which immediately triggered the automatic operation of the other three techniques. A powerful force erupted from his body, like a dragon emerging from the sea, and the force was transmitted to the longsword in his hand.
The Eighteen Swords of Gale!
All sword techniques combined into one, transforming into an endless stream of sword shadows, with an imposing momentum.
The sword light flashed through the void, producing a faint sword cry, as if it were about to cleave through the void.
In an instant!
With a flash of sword light, Lin Xiaofei pierced through the air with a single sword strike!
The perfected version of the Eighteen Swift Swords combines the power of all sword techniques into a single strike, its momentum unstoppable—this is his strongest strike.
The sword blade flew down like a waterfall suddenly descending from the sky, flashing with countless sword lights, like a waterfall cascading down for thousands of miles.
when!
Swords clashed.
Li Yiming was shocked. He felt a tremendous force pushing the hilt of the knife in his hand towards him, causing the long knife he was swinging to deviate from its direction.
At the same time, the opponent's longsword slashed towards him.
