Chapter 39 Underwater Fight
The surface of the river is sparkling.
A silent and solemn figure was reflected on the shore.
The figure was dressed in black and had a black cat mask on his head, with only one or two sharp eyes exposed on his body.
Like a fluttering butterfly, after just a few encounters, the team of red-clothed men around Zeng Anmin fell in the cold light.
"Pfft~"
As the last man in red fell, Zeng Anmin watched helplessly as the assassin in the black cat mask got closer and closer to him.
"Someone from Prince Jiang's Mansion?"
Zeng Anmin asked tentatively.
The assassin said nothing, but pressed forward with the cold knife in his hand.
"Da, da, da."
The assassin's footsteps were getting closer.
Almost everyone near the dock looked here.
They either hide in the dark or lie behind cover, revealing their eyes, showing excitement, curiosity, or even pity.
In their eyes, Zeng Anmin's official robe was a symbol of evil.
And the assassin holding the cold knife is the black cat warrior who punishes evil and promotes good and stands up for the people!
…
Now, how to break the deadlock?
Zeng Anmin felt nothing in his heart.
He wasn't afraid, just a little worried.
If he were to fight the assassin in public, his identity as the Black Cat Warrior would be exposed on the spot.
So there is only one way...
"bass!!!"
The assassin's hand was steady and the dagger in his hand was swift.
When that silver line lights up, it seems to cut through time.
Seeing this knife, everyone held their breath.
That young man in official uniform is going to die!!
No one mourned for him, no one even felt sorry for him, they just opened their eyes wide and looked at the raised knife tip.
It seemed as if it would cut the boy's throat in the next moment.
"Puff~!!!"
A sound of something entering the water was heard, splashing waves on the surface of the river!
It turned out that at this critical moment, Zeng Anmin chose to jump into the river to survive! !
“Swish~”
The assassin's knife whizzed through the air, and the blade missed.
As the knife missed, the assassin looked at the river in astonishment.
As Zeng Anmin entered the water, only ripples on the river surface responded to the assassin.
…
"Puff!!"
Without any hesitation, the assassin immediately jumped into the river and chased after Zeng Anmin.
The water surface gradually returned to calm.
At this time, a few brave boatmen in plain clothes slowly moved towards the river.
They looked down at the river, but could not see anything except the ripples after entering the water.
…
"Gurgle~"
After Zeng Anmin entered the water, the martial arts energy in his body began to circulate wildly.
[(Colorful) High-end Martial Power: Your martial arts combat power is one level higher than your martial arts realm.]
Although he is only of the ninth rank, the martial arts energy swirling in his body is extremely active because of the bonus of the golden finger martial arts entry.
The actual combat power is level eight.
"I can still hold my breath for a quarter of an hour."
Floating in the deep water, Zeng Anmin's phoenix eyes were extremely sharp.
Just at this moment, a short-handled hatchet appeared silently in his hand.
Colorful rays of light flickered, and ancient and mysterious patterns flashed on the axe.
As soon as the hand axe appeared, the surrounding water began to boil.
Zeng Anmin looked up at the water.
At this moment, he was like a hunter, patiently waiting for his prey.
"Boom~"
The assassin jumped into the deep water, searching for Zeng Anmin.
Finally, he saw a blurry figure.
"Gurgle~"
The assassin breathed a sigh of relief and swam away at high speed, holding the sharp blade.
At the same time, an idea popped into my mind.
Why doesn't he run away?
But this thought disappeared in just a moment.
The water in early winter is bone-chillingly cold.
Ordinary people would feel extremely uncomfortable if they suddenly entered the water.
The assassin stirred the water around him, getting closer and closer to the blurry figure.
Three zhang, two zhang...
Finally, the distance between the two was less than ten feet.
Zeng Anmin was still waiting patiently, and the hand axe hidden behind his back was secretly gathering power.
The martial arts energy in the body was circulating wildly.
He knew that what he lacked compared to those warriors who had practiced martial arts for many years was not only combat experience, but also martial arts skills.
Or technique.
The axe in his hand at this moment was no different from an ordinary axe for chopping wood.
Even if it's not an axe, it makes no difference if it's a knife, a sword, or a stick.
He only has one chance to strike.
Finally, the assassin was less than ten feet away from Zeng Anmin!
The two eyes on the assassin's face were already showing a sinister smile, and he felt that he was about to succeed!
However.
“Buzz!!!!”
A flash of axe flashed across.
It was an extremely brilliant light.
It's like a rainbow in the sky after a rainstorm.
It is also like the clear blue sky.
The river water fled in panic to both sides as if frightened.
Zeng Anmin has been accumulating strength for a long time and has been waiting for this opportunity.
only……
"bite!"
The assassin hastily raised his dagger to block, but the axe chopped down on his cold knife, cutting through it like tofu, with no loss of momentum.
“What a sharp axe!!!”
The assassin looked at the axe and a ridiculous idea came to his mind.
The axe in his hand, could it be a...divine weapon? ! !
The son of the Governor in front of me is also a warrior?
Isn’t he an unparalleled genius in Confucianism and Taoism?
A critical moment!
The assassin's fighting instinct, acquired through countless training sessions, made him kick his legs hard and shift his body.
"Gurgle~"
The blood instantly spread out in the river.
Half of the assassin's shoulder was missing, and his left arm, which was holding the knife, was separated from his body.
The piercing pain reminded the assassin that the young master of the Zeng family before him was definitely not a Confucian or Taoist monk!
Zeng Anmin's heart sank.
The blow failed to kill the assassin.
Just as he was about to raise his axe to chop again.
The assassin dodged like a loach and swam upwards with all his might.
He's going to run!!
He wanted to go out and tell his master that Zeng Anmin was a warrior!
Seeing this scene, Zeng Anmin's almond-shaped eyes suddenly widened!
The assassin cannot be allowed to leave the water alive! ! ! !
Without any hesitation, the martial arts energy stored in the body madly impacted the meridians.
Zeng Anmin accelerated very quickly. With both arms intact, he was much faster than the assassin who had lost one arm.
Finally, at the moment when the assassin was about to emerge from the river, a strong hand grabbed his ankle.
“Come down!!!”
Zeng Anmin did not dare to delay. He stared at the assassin fiercely, and with a ruthless heart, he pulled him into the water again.
"You want me to reveal my identity? Go to hell!!!"
The axe flashed, splitting the fog.
He also slit the assassin's throat.
Zeng Anmin's eyes, which were usually half-closed, were now completely wide open and staring round!
“Chiu!!”
"Shhh~"
"Gurgle~"
The assassin covered his trachea in disbelief.
But he couldn't stop the blood loss.
Finally, he gradually stopped struggling, his eyes remained open unwillingly, but he had lost all hope of survival.
More and more blood gradually floated to the surface of the water.
Above the river, a wisp of red first floated in the cyan water, and then more and more red appeared until it dyed the entire space.
Looking down at the people in the water, they began to rejoice! !
"Dead!! Black Cat Wufu succeeded!!"
"There's one less corrupt official in the world who exploits the people!!"
“God has appeared!!”
…
Underwater, Zeng Anmin's head began to feel dizzy.
Her lungs seemed to explode, venting her dissatisfaction towards him.
He tried his best to suppress the desire to swim towards the water and waved his arms forward desperately.
If you surface the water at this point, you will definitely be exposed!!
