"One-Eyed Bro, when did you get back?"
On the evening of May 28, at a bathhouse outside Qijia Village in Jiangzhou City, Qi Xiang was with a one-eyed man, comfortably soaking his feet while enjoying a massage from a young woman.
"I just arrived this afternoon. Brother Fei arranged for me to come back and sell some of my harvest and purchase a batch of supplies."
"He asked me to come and see you. The college entrance exam is coming up soon, and our hunting team can't come back before the exam. He asked me to ask you if you're confident you can become the top scholar in Jiangzhou?" One-Eyed asked casually.
"Brother One-Eyed, I used to be in the top three at Jiangzhou No. 1 High School. Although I wasn't sure I could get the top score, I was definitely in the top three."
"But now some things have changed, and I'm not even sure if I can get into Jiangzhou Wuhan University through the college entrance exam," Qi Xiang sighed.
"What happened?" One-Eyed asked, remembering that Captain Qi Fei had asked him to look after his younger brother Qi Xiang, and immediately became concerned.
"I was challenged by a jinx at school and lost to him. Moreover, he used dirty tricks and ruthless methods, which seriously injured me and made me rest for half a month. In the past half month, my qi and blood have not improved at all, and I estimate that I have now fallen to the twentieth or thirtieth place in the school," Qi Xiang snorted.
"Didn't you say you were in the top three at school? And someone was able to seriously injure you? Could it be that girl named Xue, who was ranked number one?" One-Eyed had also heard about Qi Xiang's situation at school.
"No. It's a jinx named Chen Feng who brought death to his parents and used to be a good-for-nothing. But in the last two months, his strength has increased by leaps and bounds. It's said that the death of his parents stimulated him and awakened his powers."
You all know I like Zhao Xue, but when I heard that Chen Feng was chatting and laughing with Zhao Xue, I was so angry that I went to warn him, and he challenged me.
"We fought right there on the school's arena, and he beat me so badly I was seriously injured. He even won the Mangniu Fist, a D-level martial art my brother had given me," Qi Xiang said helplessly.
“This Chen Feng is truly despicable. Doesn’t he know that your brother is Qi Fei, the genius martial artist from Jiangzhou, and the famous captain of the Flying Hunting Team?” One-Eyed asked.
"People at our school should all know, but even after I mentioned my brother's name, Chen Feng still didn't hold back."
"One-Eyed Bro, I need to ask you for a favor. Tonight, secretly go and injure Chen Feng. If you seriously injure him so he can't take the college entrance exam, I'll be able to focus on my studies and definitely get good grades."
At this point, Qi Xiang suddenly had an idea. He immediately leaned over and whispered to One-Eyed that he wanted him to help seriously injure Chen Feng so that Chen Feng would not be able to perform normally during the college entrance examination.
"It's nothing. Send me the address in a bit, I'll teach him a lesson, then I'll go buy the supplies and leave first thing tomorrow morning. Don't make a fuss, just pretend I never came back, otherwise it'll be troublesome if the martial arts department finds out."
One-Eyed was a peak ninth-rank martial artist who had been hunting in the wild for a long time. Although he was only a member of the hunting team responsible for logistics, he had participated in many battles and seen blood. He felt confident that he could deal with a high school senior.
Even Qi Xiang, the top student in his senior year, has only just broken through to the mid-stage of the ninth rank. It is said that Chen Feng has only been a ninth-rank martial artist for a little over a month, and he is probably still far from the mid-stage of the ninth rank.
Soon, Qi Xiang sent Chen Feng's address to One-Eye. However, after checking, One-Eye found that Chen Feng lived in a dormitory area of a certain unit, which was guarded outside and not easy to sneak in.
"He lives in the company dormitory area. Who are his parents?" One-Eyed asked.
"Chen Feng's parents were originally researchers at a martial arts research institute in Jiangzhou. It is said that they died in an attack by cultists more than half a year ago, but he is still living there for the time being."
"One-Eyed Bro, if it's inconvenient to go to his house, you can wait for him outside his apartment complex. Just cripple him, don't kill him, to avoid trouble," Qi Xiang said.
"Don't worry, I'll take care of things first tomorrow, then I'll guard him tonight. After that, I'll prepare to leave the city," One-Eyed nodded.
The next evening, when Chen Feng was walking home after getting off the subway towards his residential area, he suddenly noticed out of the corner of his eye that a one-eyed man seemed to be observing him from about ten meters behind.
After thinking for a moment, he deliberately took a detour to the square next to the residential area, and found that the one-eyed man was indeed following him from a distance, clearly targeting him.
"Could this be members of a cult, retaliating against me for what I reported before? But apart from the police station, the cult shouldn't know that I was the one who reported them, right? Could there be cult informants within the police station?"
Chen Feng guessed, but he sensed that the one-eyed man's aura was not very strong, and his blood and qi were only slightly stronger than his own. If they were to fight, he should not be afraid of him.
"The information I've released so far shows that I've only recently broken through to become a ninth-rank martial artist. There's no way the cult would send an eighth-rank martial artist to deal with me, right?"
However, even if he encountered an eighth-rank martial artist, with his perfected Meteor Step, he would definitely not lose to an eighth-rank martial artist in terms of speed. Add to that the Devouring Mystic Technique and flying needles, and he could certainly give this person a try.
As Chen Feng pondered this, he turned and headed towards the woods outside the square. There was a small grove of trees there, dimly lit at night, with no residents and hardly anyone passing by.
One-Eyed followed Chen Feng at a distance, carrying a black shoulder bag that was bulging inside. He didn't pay attention to Chen Feng's route and quickly followed after him.
Not far into the grove, Chen Feng stopped. Under his control, three flying needles quietly hovered two meters above the ground, waiting for One-Eyed to arrive.
Not long after, One-Eye arrived quickly, but he didn't expect to see Chen Feng standing in front of him as soon as he entered the grove, as if he was waiting for him.
"Could it be that this kid already spotted me and called his helpers to ambush me here?" One-Eye thought to himself and immediately looked around.
“No need to look. There’s no one else here, just me. You cultists are really everywhere. You found out so quickly that I discovered your altar and reported it to the police station,” Chen Feng said coldly, three flying needles already poised to be launched.
One-Eyed was taken aback, not expecting Chen Feng to mistake him for a cult member. However, he didn't want to reveal his identity anyway, so he chuckled and said, "Kid, you ruined our important event, so the elder ordered me to finish you off. You're just unlucky to have met me."
"Is that so?" Chen Feng sneered, then directly used the Devouring Mystic Technique on the one-eyed man. Instantly, a surge of spiritual power hit him, causing a sharp pain in the one-eyed man's head.
"Swish swish——"
At the same time, three golden needles shot out instantly, piercing into the remaining eye of the one-eyed man and into both ears. These were the easiest places for Chen Feng to attack and severely injure his opponent.
"ah--"
The mental shock and the attacks from the Star Gold Needles on his eyes and ears caused One-Eyed to scream in agony. Chen Feng rushed forward and unleashed his full power with the Bull Fist, striking One-Eyed in the chest.
