It was night. In the vast starry sky, there were stars, but the moon could not be seen. The night was extremely dark, and one could not even see their own fingers.
However, Luo Tian and Feng Wu didn't stand in their way. It was as if it was daytime, and the two of them flew across the walls of the town closest to the village. Within a few breaths, they arrived at the hiding place of Shi Wuzun and the others.
The Lian City disciples who were patrolling outside suddenly saw two black shadows coming towards them. Their eyes widened and their hands clutched their throats. They fell to the ground in disbelief and were very unwilling.
The person was too fast, as fast as lightning. They didn't have time to react or to alert their patrolling companions that the enemy had arrived.
Luo Tian and Feng Wu were like ghosts in the wind, and they were barely visible.
In the quiet night, all the human remains on patrol were killed by the two men. Feng Wu didn't put the dagger away until the last man's throat was slit by Feng Wu. She stuck the dagger into his calf and made a victory sign.
Seeing Feng Wu's smug expression, Luo Tian smiled and shook his head. He sighed at how Feng Wu had grown up so quickly and how she still lacked patience. These people were just some small fries. Even if they were killed, they would not pose a threat to Liancheng Stronghold. The people inside were the big ones.
The two of them looked at each other when they reached the wall. Feng Wu then leaped over the two-foot-high wall, and Luo Tian followed suit.
Suddenly, a patrol team passed by, and the two of them ducked into the rockery. They heard the sound of running water and felt a cool breeze. Luo Tian's spirits were lifted. A moment later, Feng Wu had passed the first patrol.
Luo Tian followed closely behind her without a word. He didn't say anything and just watched quietly, testing Feng Wu's observation skills and adaptability. The two of them avoided three checkpoints and entered the inner court.
All of a sudden, Feng Wu flew up and perched herself on a towering pine tree, from which she could see everything in the hall. Luo Tian smiled as he took in everything in the hall, but his eyes didn't leave the hall.
"Shi Wu Zun is too proud, he didn't even set up a hidden sentry here. Obviously, he doesn't think much of us.”He originally thought that Shi Wu Zun should not have made such a mistake, but who knew that Shi Wu Zun still made it.
Luo Tian laughed coldly in his heart. Martial arts were not the only criteria to determine victory. Especially in this situation where they were like fire and water, Shi Wu Zun still held a heart of underestimation. No wonder Xiong Ba could destroy Wushuang City. The people of Wushuang City were too arrogant. If they did not die, it would be too unreasonable.
"You are waiting for an opportunity here. I will go inside and create an opportunity for you.”Luo Tian whispered in Feng Wu's ear.
"Yes!" Feng Wu nodded in silence. Suddenly, she pulled out her bow and a sharp arrow. The people inside were all top-notch fighters, and she wasn't much stronger than them. If she followed them in, she would be at a disadvantage to Luo Tian.
She knew that, which was why Luo Tian had brought her along. Feng Wu knew when to back off and when to change the situation. She would not be unreasonable and cause trouble.
She had always been good at grasping the situation at critical moments. It was not the first time they had worked together. Now, she could understand everything with just a glance.
Once the Phoenix Dances Arrow was released, very few people could avoid it. At the moment, Feng Wu could only shoot five arrows at her current cultivation level, and the best she could do was shoot five arrows at once. Even he had to be careful.
She knew that Shi Wuzun was the person Feng Wu wanted to kill the most. This was her request, and it was also a big test for her to practice the Phoenix Dance Arrow. Now that she was a first-rate expert, she was slightly lacking in the calm state of the Phoenix Dances Arrow.
The Phoenix Dances Arrow was based on the understanding of the exchange between stillness and movement. At present, she was only cultivating in stillness. If her heart was calm, the arrow would be completed. Luo Tian didn't criticize her, as he was testing Feng Wu's experience with the Dancing Phoenix Arrow.
Being skilled in martial arts did not mean that he had enough experience. An inexperienced expert might not be able to defeat someone whose realm was lower than his, especially in the field of long-range attacks. Feng Wu was a long-range fighter, not a melee fighter.
If it was close combat, her strength could only kill second-rate experts at most. She would not be able to fight against first-rate experts at all. Just like a modern sniper, he would turn himself into a combination of all things, hide himself, and then wait for the right opportunity to strike.
In a flash, Luo Tian was like a ghost, coming and going as he pleased. The sentry equipment outside the house was removed by him, and he silently sneaked into the hall. Shi Wuzun and the others did not notice anything unusual, and they were still chatting and laughing in the hall.
The candlelight emitted a bright light. The few of them were sipping tea and chatting when they heard Shi Wuzun say,"The City Lord has already instructed me to kill Luo Tian. If not, your Fort Master will immediately retreat to Wushuang City.”
"That's good," a middle-aged man said."Our chief has the same plan." Although Luo Tian rarely moved, he was extremely vicious and not easy to deal with.”
The burly man suddenly heaved a sigh of relief. He was also worried that Dugu Yifang would kill the donkey after it was done grinding. After all, Luo Manor was not a small sect, but a new power that could not be underestimated. Even Wushuang City and the World Association were afraid of him, so how could he not be careful?
He agreed with Wushuang City because Lian Zhantian was not convinced by Luo Tian. Secondly, Lian Zhantian was supported by Wushuang City. Everyone knew that Lian Cheng Village was protected by Wushuang City. Attacking Lian Cheng Village meant attacking Wushuang City. If Luo Tian wanted to destroy Lian Cheng Village, he had to consider Wushuang City's attitude.
Shi Wuzun snorted coldly in his heart. He was quite disdainful of Lian Cheng Village's idea. Since he had offended Luo Jia Village, he was worried that Luo Tian would take revenge, so he acted rather softly. If it were him, he would have immediately launched a surprise attack on Luo Jia Village that day instead of killing them halfway.
In his heart, he wanted to have a fair fight with Luo Tian, but the City Lord did not agree to it. He could only settle for the next best thing. Although there were rumors in Jianghu that Luo Tian's martial arts were on par with the City Lord and Xiong Ba, he was not convinced. He felt that the rumors in Jianghu were exaggerated.
After the Ming family's grandmother came out, he had made up his mind that no matter what, he had to compete with Luo Tian. It was good to teach her grandmother that she was old and useless. She had lost her ambition.
The more the Ming family's grandmother praised Luo Tian, the more unconvinced he became. She felt that her grandmother was worried about her granddaughter and was afraid that the Dugu Family would attack the Ming Family. That was why his grandma spoke up for Luo Tian and exaggerated him so that Dugu Yifang would know the importance of the Ming family.
All along, he and the Ming Family's grandmother had never stopped fighting for the position of the second in command of Peerless City. Being suppressed by the Ming Family's grandmother was a pain in his heart. Shi Wuzun had always thought that the Ming family was second in command, not because of Granny's high martial arts, but because the Ming family had the Unparalleled Yin Sword, which was why Dugu Yifang valued them. For the sake of Peerless City, Dugu Yifang even agreed to let Ming Yue enter Luo Manor as a chess piece.
Now that he heard that the people of Liancheng Stronghold were frightened, he suddenly revealed a ferocious smile and said gloomily,"If you are afraid of death, then let this old man take action.”
"Humph!" The middle-aged man was dissatisfied with Shi Wu Zun's attitude. His face was very ugly. The few people beside him also revealed embarrassed and angry expressions.
Shi Wu Zun looked around disdainfully and said mockingly,""Since you've already done it, you still want Luo Tian to show mercy. You're really ignorant.”
Now that there was no way out in the village, did they really think Luo Tian was a good man? Lian Zhantian's actions were not for Wushuang City, but for the Luo Family Village's share.
If the City Lord did not want to test the strength of the Luo Family Village, he would have destroyed the entire village long ago. If not, the entire village would have been swayed and become a fence-sitter. They still wanted to negotiate with Luo Tian, what a bunch of idiots.
"Old fogey, a warrior can be killed but not humiliated.”One of the muscular men stood up and shouted.
"Second brother, sit down." The middle-aged man in the lead berated. Although he was dissatisfied with Shi Wu Zun's contempt, he had to tolerate it. There was no way out for Lian Cheng Village. Only Wushuang City could save Lian Cheng Village.
The situation was stronger than him, he had no choice but to swallow his anger. He glanced at Shi Wu Zun and said in a deep voice,"We're all working for the City Lord now, but we're not your subordinates. " I hope Wu Zun doesn't neglect our strength. With Luo Tian's strength, you might not be his match. If you are killed by Luo Tian, we won't be able to answer to the City Lord.”
"Hahaha!" Shi Wu Zun suddenly stood up and laughed wildly. His voice was like a great bell, and the surrounding windows creaked. He said scornfully,"I'm not boasting, but if I didn't personally deal with Luo Tian, I wouldn't have come.”
Shi Wuzun was exposed and ignored Feng Wu. Feng Wu wouldn't let go of such an opportunity. She shot an arrow at Shi Wuzun. Feng Wu moved and shot another arrow.
Shi Wu Zun had excellent hearing. After hearing the sound of the air being torn, he became alert. Before he could finish speaking, he had already started to dodge. The sudden change made everyone in the room panic.
"He's here, he's really here." The people of the stockade city shouted in unison, their voices trembling in fear.
With a loud bang, the chair that Shi Wu Zun was sitting on shattered into pieces. Then, another arrow flew past his ear, and a few strands of hair fell. Shi Wu Zun dodged the two consecutive arrows and was both shocked and furious.
The sneak attack turned into the target of the sneak attack. This contrast was difficult for him to accept. His figure flashed and he ran outside. Just as he reached the door, a sharp palm wind came.
In the blink of an eye, before he could react, he instinctively stretched out his right palm and pushed forward, exchanging a palm strike with the two of them.
A powerful and sharp palm force shocked Shi Wu Zun. He had no time to care about the huge force and could only take it head-on. His body suddenly flew backward, and a figure appeared in front of everyone.
