“The City guards are here!!”

The fighting in the hall immediately stopped as soon as the voice rang out.

“This is not over yet..” The thug gritted his teeth as he stared at Wu Feng, and then at Lu Shimming.

With that the group immediately dispersed, running out.

“What are you doing? Do you want to spend the night in jail?” Wu Feng looked at Lu Shimming as their group swiftly made out of the place as well.

“Why are we running?” Lu Shimming asked in confusion.

“Do you think the news of the Young Master of Wu Clan causing a commotion in a brothel would be well received?” Wu Feng looked at him as if he was an idiot.

“They are there! After them!” A voice rang out from behind.

“Let's separate!” Wu Feng ordered, and their group immediately broke up.

Wu Feng and Lu Shimming ran through the alley, trying to lose the people on their tail.

“You sure can keep up..” Wu Feng looked at him, even though he had deliberately slowed down, Lu Shimming was still much faster than what he had imagined.

“I work with horses. Have you ever tried chasing after a loose horse?” Lu Shimming asked with a smile.

“Yeah..sure..” Wu Feng shook his head, and the two of them continued running ahead.

10 minutes later..

“We seemed to have finally lost them..” Wu Feng looked at Lu Shimming, his breathing a little heavy.

“Why did you start a fight back there?” Lu Shimming asked, the entire mess was due to it. It seemed very stupid of him.

“Well, it was necessary.” Wu Feng seemed to disagree with his opinion, “Have you ever fished?”

“Huh..of course..” Lu Shimming replied with a frown.

“We are doing the same today..”

As Lu Shimming was only getting more confused, he sensed several people approaching.

“What a coincidence?” A person walked out from the dark shadows of the alley. It was the thug from earlier, with his group.

His face carried a smile, an evil one.

“Was the beating from before not enough?” Wu Feng asked with a smug face.

It was only at this moment, did Lu Shimming realized something, ‘This guy..he was running after them the whole time. This is no coincidence!’

“I will surely pull that tongue of yours out, you brat!” The thug let out a threat as veins popped up on his forehead. “You were safe there, because we couldn’t reveal our true strength. But here..”

Suddenly, an ominous aura surged forth from them, and the next instant, their eyes turned red.

The aura of the leader who was at the 4th Layer of Qi Refinement, suddenly shot through and reached the 6th Layer at once, while the rest of the group too managed to increase their strength by a layer or two

Most of them averaging around 3rd layer with a couple of 4th in them.

“Blood Arts? That sure is a nasty thing you showed..” Wu Feng looked at them, his smile slowly disappearing.

“Clang!” The leader of the thugs, suddenly pulled, smashed his first wearing gauntlets as if letting out a battle roar. He then took a step forward and rushed towards Wu Feng.

“Hold him for two minutes, I will take care of the rest of them..” Wu Feng looked at Lu Shimming.

Enjoying this book? Seek out the original to ensure the author gets credit.

“Huh? Isn’t it the other way around..” Lu Shimming stared at him.

“Trust me this is the better option..” Wu Feng patted his shoulder, fighting multiple people at the same level as you would probably get you killed faster than fighting one of a higher level.

“Ahh..you better finish it in two minutes, I don’t want to die again..” Lu Shimming sighed.

“Die again.?” Wu Feng looked at him, thinking he was just losing his shit in nervousness, “I saw you fight earlier, believe me, two minutes is doable for you. Just don’t fight him head on..”

With that, the two separated, and engaged in combat.

“Where do you think you are going?” The leader of thug frowned upon seeing Wu Feng ignore him, but just as he was about to chase after him, a stone hit right at the back of his head.

“You little shit..” The guy immediately turned around, his bloodshot eyes staring at Lu Shimming in a menacing manner.

“I might not look like it, but my Master is a monk. I am the bane for Evil Cultivators like you. If you do-”

Before Lu Shimming could complete his words, the guy was already rushing at him in madness.

“Let me complete, what's the hurry..” Lu Shimming almost cursed, his idea to waste time failing miserably. He immediately used the Ten Thousand Paths to swiftly dodge the incoming attack.

The thug was almost in a berserk state, hence, it was a little easier for Lu Shimming to make out his next move, and the two walked around the place as if dancing with each other. One attacking and the other dodging.

“Whoosh!”

As the fist swung right above Lu Shimming’s head, he could feel the might in them. A 6th Layer of Qi Refinement cultivator was no joke to current him. He knew if he even took one hit, he would seriously be laying down on the floor.

“You rat!! Stop dodging!!” The thug only seemed to get more pissed at Lu Shimming’s actions.

“Chance!” Lu Shimming suddenly noticed a gap open up in the enemy’s defense, as he screamed in madness. Using the opportunity, he immediately changed his movement, and closed in on him at a lightning speed.

Eight Trigrams Divination, Second Palm!

Blooming Lotus!

Both of his palm shot forward one straight and other inverted.

“Bang!”

‘It connected!’ Lu Shimming rejoiced, but it was short lived.

“That hurt you b*stard!” The man swung his fist, and it landed right into Lu Shimming’s gut, sending him flying across the alley.

“Idiot..” Wu Feng shook his head, as he took one more opponent down. His cultivation at the 6th layer was easily suppressing the others.

On the other side, Lu Shimming slowly got up, and rubbed the dust off of his clothes, blood leaking out of the corner of his mouth.

‘I got too excited..’ He admitted his own fault. He hadn’t fully mastered the second move, not to mention the gap in cultivation between the two.

“You can stand?” The thug looked at Lu Shimming in surprise, before his face turned dark, “Not for long though..”

He suddenly tapped his gauntlets, metal claws extended from it.

“Now that's cheating..” Lu Shimming forced a smile.

“I am gonna tear you apart..” The thug looked at Lu Shimming with a smile, fairness not his main forte.

“Seeing how strong your body is, I bet your blood is going to be very nutritious..” He further stated, a bit in excitement.

As the thug licked his lips, Lu Shimming really felt speechless. A corpse offering healthy blood? Well, it would be a good thing if his blood was not corrupted like Qi.

“Whoosh!”

The thug rushed at Lu Shimming in an even more rigorous way than before. His movement becoming faster. And the annoying thing was his reach which seemed to have gotten wider with the claw.

With each passing second, the difference in cultivation between the two began to show up. Lu Shimming’s body began to get covered in cuts, on the other hand, his attack didn’t manage to do any considerable damage.

“Isn’t two minutes over?” Lu Shimming shouted as he dodged the incoming attack and backed away. His clothes were starting to get shredded, he didn’t want his body to be put on show, especially the hole in his stomach.

“I am done..”

Wu Feng’s voice echoed.

Both the thug, and Lu Shimming couldn’t help but turn their heads to look at him.

There he was standing with his sword in scabbard, while all the other thugs were laying sprawled on the ground.

“It's your turn..” Wu Feng looked at the thug, and smiled. And then he slowly drew his sword.

It felt like a flash, and Lu Shimming felt a piercing pain in his eyes as the sword got out of its sheath.

The scene of swords covering the sky seemed to flash past his eyes once again. As he tried to get a clear look at the sword, it was already going back into the sheathe.

“It's over?” As he was in doubt, both the legs of the thug suddenly came down with a clean slice, and his body crashed onto the ground. Blood spurting from his wound.

“Aaaahhhh!!!” The guy let out a blood curdling scream.

It was all over in an instant.
