Seven-star Sword Master

"Why do you want to assassinate Lu? I have never offended anyone.

First he used the Mountain-Opening Talisman, and then he showed up in person to attack and kill. You really think this is a good method.

If I hadn't believed that I still had some skills, I would have fallen into your hands today."

In fact, Lu Feipeng was delaying time. He had just finished lunch and he knew that Chen Dongsheng would usually come out for a patrol after lunch.

Then a hoarse voice came out from the other party's mouth:

"I've been waiting for you for a long time, you're so noisy!"

However, as if he had guessed what Lu Feipeng was thinking, the man in black on the opposite side did not give him any chance to delay time.

He swung the sword in his hand and rushed directly towards Lu Feipeng.

"court death!"

Lu Feipeng's eyes flashed coldly, and he shouted:

"I wanted to wait for someone to come and save someone alive, but since you are eager to die, don't blame me for being rude."

"kill…"

As the cry of killing rang out, he rushed towards the man in black with a black iron knife in hand.

The weapons collided back and forth, and from time to time there was a "ping pong pong..." sound.

As soon as the fight started, the black-clothed man's expression changed immediately.

Because he could feel from his fight with Lu Feipeng that the other party's strength seemed to be more than just the first level of the Spirit Induction Realm as rumored.

Judging from the depth of his spiritual power, he is probably at least at the second level of the Spirit Induction Realm.

"Hiss, it's only been a few days, and this kid's growth rate is really terrifying.

No, I have to keep this kid here today even if it means paying a certain price.

Otherwise, when he grows up, he will regret it!"

Thinking of this, he no longer had the intention of testing the other party.

The spiritual energy in his body was running wildly, and this time he attacked with all his strength, beating Lu Feipeng back step by step without any chance of resistance.

Ever since the man in black on the opposite side used all his strength, Lu Feipeng has been complaining in his heart.

After the fight, he could feel that the opponent's cultivation was far beyond his reach.

This person's cultivation is at least at the fourth level of the Spirit Induction Realm or higher.

The reason why he was able to withstand the opponent's extremely fierce attack was mostly due to the black iron knife in his hand.

It was because the black iron knife was longer than the opponent's sword that made the opponent feel cautious and did not dare to engage in close combat with him.

To be honest, Lu Feipeng really needs to thank Chen Dongsheng.

If Chen Dongsheng hadn't suggested that he use long weapons, he might have been defeated by now.

Although he was beaten without any chance to fight back, it would take time for the opponent to win quickly.

As time passed, the man in black became more and more wary of Lu Feipeng.

He really couldn't understand how a person who had only practiced for six or seven days could have such terrifying strength.

Seeing that he could not take the city after a long time of attack and that it might be disadvantageous to him if he continued to fight like this, the man in black decided to retreat.

If he didn't get away now, he would really be entangled by Lu Feipeng.

When the enemy reinforcements arrive, I will be the only one left behind today.

However, just when the man in black was anxiously trying to escape, Lu Feipeng, who was fighting with him, suddenly seized the opponent's weakness.

"Right now..."

Then he shouted, "Kill!"

The black iron knife in his hand actually chopped straight towards the black-clothed man's head.

"what…"

The man in black yelled and frantically channeled his spiritual power into the sword, trying to block Lu Feipeng's fatal attack.

"boom…"

Although the sword blocked the attack of the black iron knife, the sword in his hand had been bent to the edge of his forehead.

Lu Feipeng leaped backward, and the black iron knife slid along the sword, and a "sizzling" sound was made when the swords crossed.

Suddenly, flames burst out and the blade cut a bloody wound on his forehead.

"How dare you! You're really looking for death!"

The man in black shouted at Lu Feipeng and made a gesture as if he was ready to fight him to the death.

Seeing this, Lu Feipeng, who had just retreated to the side, immediately held his knife to his chest and responded with all his might.

But who knew that the man in black on the other side had no martial ethics at all.

Although the voice was extremely loud, he did not attack Lu Feipeng.

Instead, he made a feint, took out a talisman from his waist and said to Lu Feipeng:

"go with!"

"Again!"

Lu Feipeng let out a loud, furious yell, and at the same time, his body kept retreating in a hurry.

He madly circulated the spiritual power in his body, and a faint spiritual power shield enveloped him again.

"Bang bang bang..."

The mountain-opening talisman directly blew a big hole in the ground, and smoke instantly filled a large area.

In the smoke and dust, you can't even see anything within two feet.

Just in case, Lu Feipeng had to squat down hurriedly, using the black iron knife to protect himself, holding his breath and listening to the sounds around him with his ears.

The smoke and dust eventually dissipated, and when Lu Feipeng's vision became clear again, there was no trace of the men in black around him.

In order to prevent any fraud, he chose to stay where he was and be on guard.

“Chirp…Chirp…”

Two beams of fire shot up into the sky, and two loud "bang" sounds were heard in the air.

Regardless of whether the mysterious man in black had left or not, he was not prepared to take the risk alone. He took out a flare from his cloth bag and asked for help from the patrol team.

The captain's flares are the same as those of the team members, but unlike the team members, the captain sends a distress signal by firing two flares at the same time.

In this way, others can tell whether the distress signal is sent by a team member or the captain.

Not long after the flare was sent out, the nearest team rushed over in a hurry.

There was one person among them whom Lu Feipeng knew, and that person was Song Qiang, who joined the patrol team with him.

They all had magic-detecting talismans on their bodies and stopped a few feet away from Lu Feipeng?

Because Song Qiang joined the patrol team together with Lu Feipeng, he asked Lu Feipeng, "What's wrong with Captain Lu?"

There is a rule in the patrol team that as long as the captain launches a flare in the air, all team members including the captain must immediately put down what they are doing and go up to provide support as soon as possible.

If someone fails to arrive within a certain time, no matter what the relationship or reason, he will be charged with desertion and killed!

This is a tough order issued by the village in order to prevent any major crisis.

Lu Feipeng glanced at Song Qiang and the others and said, "Wait a moment, wait until everyone is here."

Song Qiang also knew that he was of low status and had little influence, so he did not say much, but instead performed his duty faithfully and remained alert in all directions.

When the nearby team members had all rushed over, Chen Dongsheng rushed over urgently.

However, when he saw the messy ground and the two big pits blasted by the mountain-splitting talisman, his eyes narrowed immediately.

"What happened?"

Chen Dongsheng stuck a magic-detecting talisman on his body and started asking Lu Feipeng, who was standing on the opposite side of the crowd, as he walked.

When Chen Dongsheng arrived, Lu Feipeng's eyes never left his forehead.

He felt slightly relieved when he didn't see any signs of wound on Chen Dongsheng's forehead.

As long as the man in black was not Chen Dongsheng, the matter would be easy to handle, but he did not give up his suspicion of Chen Dongsheng.

Before the real murderer was found, every cultivator in the village was a suspect, including Chen Dongsheng.

Just kidding, this is a mysterious world full of spiritual energy.

He didn't know if there was anyone in this village who could disguise themselves, but there was one thing he was sure of.

That is, in the vast world where cultivators are rampant outside, there must be people who know how to disguise themselves.

Also, the body shape is not acceptable, but this is the same principle as the art of disguise. Does anyone know if there is a technique similar to the art of bone shrinking?

Lu Feipeng quickly replied:

"Captain Chen, let's talk about this later. The magic-detecting talisman on me was damaged in the fight just now. Can you please give me another one first?"

Chen Dongsheng threw a magic-detecting talisman to Lu Feipeng. After Lu Feipeng stuck the talisman on his body, he walked towards Chen Dongsheng.

Although he was not sure whether the man in black was Chen Dongsheng, Lu Feipeng still had to inform him in advance.

After all, no matter what, I am very close to the other party in private. If I don’t inform him in advance this time, there may be a rift between the two of us later.

So Lu Feipeng told Chen Dongsheng everything that happened after he saw the flare.

Although Lu Feipeng was calmly narrating what happened, his eyes were secretly observing Chen Dongsheng's every move.

However, after he finished speaking, he did not notice any unusual change in Chen Dongsheng's expression.

Lu Feipeng then thought silently in his heart:

"Is it really not him?"

When talking about flares, Lu Feipeng also specifically asked about what happened to Doufei who had sent out the distress signal before.

He felt relieved when he learned that the monster had been dealt with by Chen Dongsheng who happened to pass by.

Although the monster was defeated, Doufei's partner lost his life.

"Forehead!"

When he said this, Lu Feipeng became visibly nervous, but then he saw Dou Fei, covered in blood, rushing over.

He nodded to Doufei, and Doufei wanted to step forward to approach him, but he stopped him with a slight shake of his head.

Chen Dongsheng did not express his opinion on this matter, but instead asked Lu Feipeng:

"Fei Peng, who do you think the murderer might be?"

Lu Feipeng first expressed his doubts:

"Uncle Dongsheng, do you think there is any way in the world to change one's appearance and height?"

Chen Dongsheng thought about it and then shook his head:

"I don't know for sure whether it exists or not. I have only heard rumors of this kind of thing in the Ningtai Township Inspection Office. The technique you mentioned may really exist."

From what Chen Dongsheng said, it seemed that there might be some martial arts skills, but they probably didn't have any in this remote mountain village.

"Uncle Dongsheng, let's not talk about his height and appearance. The black-clothed man's superb swordsmanship alone is not something that can be achieved overnight."

After hearing this, Chen Dongsheng narrowed his eyes and said:

"The only people in our village who use swords are Elder Ma, Village Chief Wang, and Wang Yushi."

At this point, Chen Dongsheng turned his head and looked at Lu Feipeng and said, "Do you suspect it was one of the three of them?"

Lu Feipeng nodded and then shook his head:

"Uncle Dongsheng, although I also suspect that this matter may be related to the three of them, I always feel that something is wrong.

This should be a trap set by the man in black. If I really believed it, I would have fallen into his trap."

"Ok!"

Chen Dongsheng also nodded and said:

“I don’t know about Mr. Ma and Village Chief Wang, but I can be sure that it is definitely not Wang Yushi.

According to the time you mentioned, Wang Yu Shi was fighting with a monster at that time. It was impossible for him to run over here and attack you in such a short time.

As for whether the other two are suspects, I really don’t know.”

Speak of Cao Cao and he will appear!

Just as the two were discussing Wang Yu Shi, Wang Yu Shi finally arrived.

Wang Yu Shi had just dealt with an attack by a monster and rushed over here without stopping, so much so that a hint of fatigue appeared on his face.

"What happened?"

He first looked at the devastated ground, and then asked Chen Dongsheng and Lu Feipeng.

So Lu Feipeng told him again how he was attacked.

"Oh, there is such a thing?"
