Chapter 137: Chapter 137: Three Punches
Swoosh!
At this moment, Lin Feng and Chou Dong clashed hands.
Thunder Tribulation Seal of Wind and Fire!
Lin Feng directly used the Six Stars Battle Technique, summoning the power of wind, fire, and thunder to launch a fierce attack.
Tiger Pounce Eagle Slash!
Chou Dong, recognizing the severity of the situation, fought back desperately, knowing well that the young man before him was no weakling.
Immediately, his Broadsword, enveloped in a cold gleam, emitted a stream of blue aura along the blade, turning into a shadowy slash.
Bang!
Their forces collided and nullified each other, creating a loud explosive sound. A visible wave of energy swept out, instantly engulfing both Lin Feng and Chou Dong.
"Good lad, you’ve got some strength. Come on, take this strike from me!!"
Chou Dong grinned ferociously, swinging his Broadsword at waist level.
Seeing this, Lin Feng neither retreated nor dodged, but fiercely launched a punch.
Ye Feng, standing aside, spoke mockingly: "See that, Miss Qiu? This idiot is so full of himself, using his fist to confront Chou Dong’s Broadsword. Isn’t that stupid?"
"I believe in Mr. Lin, and moreover, what right do you have to judge him?"
Qiu Jin looked at Ye Feng with disdain.
Upon hearing this, Ye Feng’s expression darkened. If it wasn’t for Chou Dong’s prior instruction not to lay a finger on him, he would have definitely slapped him.
"What does it matter? Hmm, very simple, before long, I, Ye Feng, will be a living, breathing person, while he, Lin Feng, will be nothing but a cold corpse!"
Ye Feng said coldly.
"So what? Even if you live, you’ll only be a groveling dog servant!"
Having nothing left to lose, Qiu Jin fearlessly snapped back.
"You..."
Ye Feng, furious upon hearing this, sneered. Keep ranting, you wretched woman. Marrying someone like Chou Dong, do you think your days will be bright? We’ll see who ends up being the dog.
"What?"
However, at that moment, a cry of shock from Chou Dong caught the attention of both Ye Feng and Qiu Jin, who looked over with disbelief on their faces.
"How... How is this possible?"
Ye Feng was dumbstruck, while Qiu Jin was surprised yet pleased.
In the field.
Golden Saber Chou Dong incredulously looked at his Broadsword, which was shattered, broken by that man’s single punch.
"How could this be."
Chou Dong’s face showed his shock. How immense was the force behind that punch, considering this young man was merely at Martial Master Seventh Layer?
"Young man, you’ve thoroughly enraged me!!!"
Chou Dong threw away the fragments of his Broadsword. This weapon, not a Divine Weapon, but precious to him nonetheless because it was a gift from his elder brother, Blood Saber, during his time in the Northern Territory.
"I want you dead!! Shattering Stone Fist!!"
Chou Dong, skilled mainly in sword techniques, now lacked his sword and his combat effectiveness was greatly reduced. Yet, he was confident that even bare-handed he could handle Lin Feng. Could Lin Feng match up to him, a Great Martial Master First Layer, with a force of 2,100 pounds?
Facing his punch, Lin Feng did not retreat or dodge, bravely facing it with his own fierce punch.
Ah!
At the moment of the punch, a clear scream was heard, followed by a figure flying across like a sandbag.
Ye Feng and Qiu Jin were both stupefied, especially Ye Feng, who stood there in a daze with a blank expression.
"How is this possible?"
The one who was sent flying was none other than Golden Saber Chou Dong, who was at the First Layer of Great Martial Master!
A First Layer Great Martial Master, in a contest of strength, was actually sent flying by a Martial Master Seventh Layer?
"Two thousand two hundred pounds! You... You’re merely a Martial Master Seventh Layer, how could you possess such immense strength!"
Chou Dong’s arms trembled uncontrollably as he exclaimed in disbelief.
The only response to him was Lin Feng’s next punch.
The first punch, fractured Chou Dong’s bones.
The second punch, Chou Dong spurted blood, and his internal organs were damaged.
The third punch, Chou Dong lost consciousness.
After three punches, Chou Dong was completely devoid of life.
Lin Feng picked up the opponent’s broken saber, placed it over the neck with a swipe, and decapitated him like slaughtering a pig. The big head rolled on the ground, and blood sprayed out from the neck.
Swoosh!
Meanwhile, there was a sound of someone escaping through the air, and it was Ye Feng who, noticing the dire situation, immediately fled for his life with quite a swift speed.
Seeing this, Lin Feng felt too lazy to chase. The opponent was fast and had already managed a considerable distance. In this area, catching up was impossible.
Lin Feng shook off the blood on his hands, cleaned his hands with a casual demeanor after taking out the Storage Bag from the lifeless bodies, then looked towards Qiu Jin in the distance, "Miss Qiu, aren’t you going to search inside? Maybe there are some survivors among your second uncle’s men?"
Upon hearing this, Qiu Jin came to her senses, glanced at the maimed bodies with a slight fear, and nodded quickly before rushing into the camps.
Having sent Qiu Jin on her way, Lin Feng immediately began to activate the Demon Dragon Star.
In an instant, countless streams of blood and strangely shaped stars all surged towards Lin Feng.
Most of the ordinary foot soldiers were Third Grade, very few were Fourth Grade, while Ye Feng, Zhong You, and Chou Dong were all Seventh Grade Star bearers. As for the blood essence, there were several particularly strong surges which directly helped Lin Feng break through the Seventh Layer and smoothly advance to Martial Master Eighth Layer. As for the Demon Dragon Star, it was still at Seventh Grade, and Lin Feng felt no surprise at this; Seventh Grade was already not low, naturally, breakthroughs wouldn’t come easily.
"Martial Master Eighth Layer, no increase in strength, it seems because I had already reached the Ultimate Martial Master, it’s impossible to enhance my strength further unless I break through to Great Martial Master. However, once I do advance to Great Martial Master, I expect my strength will surge massively. Like Chou Dong and Hua Hu, merely two thousand one hundred pounds but for someone like me who has reached the Ultimate Martial Master at Martial Master Seventh Layer, it’s akin to compressing a spring—the more it’s compressed initially, the higher it will bounce later."
Lin Feng clenched his fists, musing to himself. What he was doing now was laying the foundation for becoming a Great Martial Master.
It wasn’t long before Qiu Jin returned. Her expression alone was telling—there was no survivor left in the camp, which was exactly what Lin Feng had anticipated.
"Miss Qiu, let’s head down the mountain."
Lin Feng had wrapped Chou Dong’s severed head in a black cloth and placed it into the Storage Bag. After escorting Qiu Jin back to the Qiu Family, and hearing how Lin Feng had eliminated their major enemy, everyone in the Qiu Family breathed a sigh of relief. They insisted on keeping Lin Feng for a meal, out of sheer gratitude, Lin Feng dined with them and after resting his horse, he bid his farewell.
"Mr. Lin, take care on your journey!"
Qiu Jin stood at the entrance of the mansion waving.
Lin Feng clasped his fist: "Farewell! Until we meet again!"
Speaking thus, he mounted his fiery horse and galloped away.
"Silly girl, it’s getting windy outside, come in."
The Qiu Family Head sighed helplessly, shook his head as he looked at his daughter, whose soul had seemingly flown away.
...
The first mission, the assassination of Golden Saber Chou Dong, was complete. Lin Feng moved on to the next mission.
The second and third tasks were in the same place, Hu Ben Mountain Range, involving the extermination of a wild beast and a unique local medicinal herb.
"Hu Ben Mountain Range... didn’t expect to go there so soon, wonder if I will encounter Ma Han and Lu Keke again."
Lin Feng’s face showed a trace of a smile; he didn’t have many friends, but Ma Han and others definitely counted as one.
