Martial Arts Assassin Master

Chapter 16 Shaolin traitor
After discussing with Li Yuran, Zhao Fanxing continued to search for targets in Cast Iron Town.

After searching most of the places, the two came to a hut.

Zhao Fanxing didn't want to miss any chance and began to observe carefully.

From the outside, the hut is unremarkable, without any special features.

He stepped forward and knocked softly on the door; "Is anyone there?"

After knocking for a while, no one responded.

He pushed hard and found that the door was locked and could not be opened at all.

Zhao Fanxing immediately went around to the back and opened the window of the cabin.

There was no one there, only simple furniture placed there.

Li Yuran asked: "Brother Zhao, the thief you are looking for is not just hiding here, is it?"

He shook his head: "I don't know either, let's ask the nearby people first."

The two began to ask the neighbors nearby.

After careful inquiry, Zhao Fanxing received very important information.

The owner of this house is a young man who looks honest and responsible.

He doesn't have a regular job, leaves early and returns late, and doesn't know what to do.

On weekdays, he likes to live in harmony with his neighbors and rarely causes trouble.

By chance, neighbors discovered that he was very strong and could lift more than 400 kilograms of objects with one person.

After putting this information together, this person's suspicion becomes even greater.

Li Yuran asked: "Brother Zhao, what should we do next?"

Zhao Fanxing replied: "Let's go in and find out first. I think there must be more important clues."

He jumped into the house from the outside window and looked for clues.

This hut is very clean and spotlessly cleaned. Although it is simple, there are traces of people's life everywhere.

On the ground, Zhao Fanxing found a flap. After opening it, the inside was pitch black, and there was a ladder leading directly below.

He immediately climbed down the ladder.

There was a strong rancid smell in the air.

Zhao Fanxing held his nose, lit a torch and took a look, and saw more than a dozen corpses.

Some of them have turned into dense bones, and some are still rotting.

Judging from the clothes on the corpse, the deceased should have had some wealth during his lifetime.

In addition to the corpse, Zhao Fanxing also found a monk's robe in the cellar.

It has long been dilapidated and covered with a thick layer of dust.

After seeing all this clearly, Zhao Fanxing jumped out of the cellar and stopped torturing his nose.

However, from the point of view of the monk's robe, he can already be sure that the owner of this hut is Xia Houtuo.

Li Yuran's almond eyes widened: "Brother Zhao, what did you see down there?"

He replied: "Many corpses, and a monk's robe."

Li Yuran pondered: "The owner of this house has something to do with Shaolin Temple?"

Zhao Fanxing admitted frankly: "Yes, we will wait for this guy tonight. It is enough for me to deal with him alone. You just need to watch from the side."

Li Yuran nodded with a smile: "That's really great, I'm eager to do this. But in the future, you can say that I killed the thief with you!"

Zhao Fanxing said: "No problem, I promise you, you will have a part of the credit."

After saying that, the two jumped out of the window.

Zhao Fanxing also put on night clothes, put on a mask, hid aside, and waited patiently.

The sky gradually darkened, and under the faint moonlight, a young man in coarse clothes returned here.

He is tall and strong, walks very powerfully, has sharp muscles on his arms, and has a long knife hanging from his waist.

"Wind Chasing Saber Technique!" Zhao Fanxing flew out without hesitation, swung the long knife, and slashed at the top of the opponent's head from top to bottom.

"Dang!" After a crisp sound, the young man blocked my attack.

Zhao Fanxing couldn't make a move, so he jumped back immediately.

The young man began to sneer: "Where is Your Excellency?"

He asked back, "You are Xia Houtuo, right?"

The young man was puzzled: "I am so low-key, how did you find me?"

Zhao Fanxing replied: "I have my own way."

Xia Houtuo lowered his head, his arms bulging with veins: "Then I have no choice but to kill you. To be honest, I really don't want to do this, but once I start killing, I can't stop."

Zhao Fanxing smiled: "Then let's have a good fight."

"Wood-burning saber technique!" The long saber in Xiahoutuo's hand suddenly ignited flames and slashed at his chest.

Zhao Fanxing blocked the enemy's attack easily.

But the moment he collided with the enemy's weapon, he felt the heat of the flame.

Xia Houtuo couldn't make a single blow, so he swung his knife and swept across.

"Huh!" A violent flame was released by the enemy, hitting his chest directly.

Zhao Fanxing waved his long knife again to resist.

For a while, the two sides started a close fight.

Xiahoutuo's saber technique carried fiercely burning flames, and the attack range was not small, and he attacked one after another.

Zhao Fanxing's sword technique has an advantage in speed, easily blocked the enemy's attack, and could find an opportunity to counterattack.

Although Xia Houtuo's sword technique was not as fast as his, but his timing was just right, and he didn't take advantage of it.

After dozens of moves in a row, Xia Houtuo suddenly changed his move and jumped behind him with a vertical leap. The long knife slashed the ground from top to bottom, releasing a flame of knife energy, attacking from under his feet.

Zhao Fanxing immediately jumped sideways to avoid the attack.

"Tianlei swordsmanship!" While dodging, he drew his sword out of its sheath, leaped high, and released hundreds of bolts of lightning at the enemy.

Xia Houtuo immediately released the flaming saber energy to resist.

"Bang bang bang!" The flames and lightning collided and canceled each other out.

"Thunder flash!" Zhao Fanxing seized the opportunity and turned into a bolt of lightning the moment he landed, charging straight at the enemy and slashing with his long sword.

Xia Houtuo hurriedly swung his knife to resist.

"Bang! Zizizi!" But the enemy was still a step slower, his right arm was rubbed by lightning, his whole body trembled, and he fell into a paralyzed state.

Zhao Fanxing immediately seized the opportunity, swung his long sword, and stabbed the enemy's throat.

Xiahoutuo struggled and waved his sword to resist.

"Dang!" He managed to block Zhao Fanxing's attack, but his body couldn't support it either, and he fell on his back.

"Heavenly thunder strikes!" Zhao Fanxing jumped into the air with a movement, holding the long sword in his hand tightly, turning into a thunderbolt, and smashing from the air to the ground.

"Boom!" After a loud noise, Xia Houtuo was blown out by him, his body was scorched black, his skin was ripped apart, and blood flowed.

But he still didn't die, struggling desperately, with unwillingness in his eyes.

Zhao Fanxing praised: "Your sword skills are good, no wonder you want to be a traitor of Shaolin Temple."

Before he finished speaking, he swung his long sword and pierced Xiahoutuo's throat.

Xia Houtuo waved his hands wildly a few times, and finally fell down powerlessly, tilted his head, and died of exhaustion.

System prompt: "Complete the assassin mission, reward 7000 practice points and the opportunity to practice 'Kuixing Kicks'."

Zhao Fanxing took a few steps back, put his sword back into its sheath.

At this moment, Li Yuran flew over and applauded; "Brother Zhao, it seems that his sword skills are still inferior to yours."

He nodded: "That's right, but Xia Houtuo is also considered a master. Let's go, we killed the target, and it's time to go to other cities."

Li Yuran asked: "Where to go?"

Zhao Fanxing replied: "Cities near Cast Iron Town will do."
