Chapter 131: Encounter with Assassins

  The carriage left the back door of the bar and slowly drove towards the city master's mansion.

  Liu Qingwu's small face was icy cold, and she sat silently in the car without saying a word.

  Inside the carriage, Du Chong had disappeared, and sitting beside her was still that handsome young man named Song An.

  The boy's gaze at her had an undisguised infatuation. However, such a gaze would only make her disgusted.

  Everyone thought she was infatuated with men, but what about the real Liu Qingwu? Who knows her true self?

  Descendants of Lin Heng!

  Liu Qingwu's slender fingers clenched into a fist, her sharp fingernails digging deep into her palm, fresh blood seeping out, and the air was filled with a faintly sweet bloody scent.

  " Iron Blooded Centurion, Lin Heng!"

  At the thought of that detestable name, a raging flame of anger filled Liu Qingwu's heart.

  More than eight years ago, it was because of this man that she lost her mother who loved her the most. Although she was only a little over six years old at that time, Liu Qingwu still clearly remembered her mother's appearance.

  Even Snowflake's aunt was a few points inferior in beauty compared to her mother.

  That beautiful woman who looks like a celestial being, how could someone bear to lay hands on her?

  Her father had seven sons and two daughters, but she didn't care about her at all. She inherited her mother's beauty, and unknowingly became the object of affection for many men in the Kunyu Sect.

  Without her mother, she saw many men's greedy and unscrupulous gaze in the years of growth, and endured countless humiliating moments in one dark corner after another.

  Those big and small men, one by one, took her as an object of venting. They tore open her skirt with suppressed and wild laughter, she would never forget.

  Here are even her brothers, those guys with a blood relationship with her. Such things, the ones who do the most are them.

  If she still had her mother, how could she have ended up like this?

  It's all because of Lin Heng, that guy known as the Iron Blood Centurion!

  From a young age, Liu Qingwu had never forgotten this matter, she had never forgotten that she would one day take revenge for her mother. And now, she finally got such an opportunity.

  Although it's not Lin Heng, being able to kill someone who has a close relationship with Lin Heng is also good. Liu Qingwu thought.

  "Master!"; The young man Song An beside him suddenly spoke up.

  "What's wrong?" Liu Qing danced lightly and glanced at Song An.

  "We paid such a high price for just one Sixth-Grade Tiger Form fist, was it worth it?" Song An said softly.

  "What do you know!"; Liu Qingwu said, with a tone that was utterly unmasked in its annoyance.

  It's not just Song An that I'm tired of, it's all men.

  "Master!"; rebuked by Liu Qingwu, Song An didn't think much of it, his eyes gleaming with a fervent light, he said in a low voice: "For such a small role, our city master's mansion can easily dispatch a strong seventh-rank Tiger Fist to complete the task, why bother inviting some Sacred Hall warrior to take action!";

  Liu Qingwu said lightly: "Killing people within the sphere of influence of Luoyun Sect is not a simple matter. Being able to walk alive into Wulin City without being discovered by the people of Luoyun Sect, such a person does not exist in the city lord's mansion."

  "Is it really okay for a temple warrior like you?" Song An said somewhat discontentedly.

  "Do you know what a Sanctuary Warrior is?" Liu Qingwu glanced at Song An, apparently finding the question extremely ridiculous.

  "An adult, even if it's like this, we want to avenge ourselves, why not directly find that Lin Heng?" Song An continued, "For the same price, it would be enough for them to kill a martial artist! Wouldn't it be better for them to directly kill Lin Heng?"

  Liu Qingwu hummed: "If we go directly to find Lin Heng... no matter how secretly the means are, it will inevitably trigger a strong backlash from the Luoyun Sect. The day Lin Heng is killed may be the day of the decisive battle between the Luoyun Sect and my Kunyu Sect!"

  Lingering for a moment, Liu Qingwu said in a soft voice: "The current Kunyu Sect is not yet capable of fully engaging in an all-out war with the Luoyun Sect!"

  …………

  Three days later, at night, in Wulin City.

  Lin Feng left the military camp and walked into the city streets.

  The order for the three-day break has been issued, and everyone in the Falcon Team also has leisure time to leave Wulin City at will and do what they want. And each person made different choices within these three days.

  Chen Gang and Liu Kun chose to stay in the military camp as they faced retirement. Yuan Ce and others, on the other hand, brought a large amount of gold coins and set off for Qinglan City to start their pleasure-seeking journey.

  Fang Qingxue originally wanted to be with Lin Feng, but after Lin Feng said he needed to go out alone, she didn't insist. She was that kind of woman, being with her wouldn't make anyone feel any pressure.

  Fang Qingxue finally decided to leave Wulin City and head to Luoyun City to see her father. Su Ying also wanted to stay with Lin Feng, but after being rejected by him, she was unhappy and left Wulin City in a huff, saying she would return to Qingyan City to show off her identity as the master of the Xuanwu Heavy Cavalry.

  Su Yan, on the other hand, chose to stay within the military camp. His reason for staying was simple: he didn't want to waste any more time and put all his energy into increasing his own strength.

  Of course, this was just Su Yan's inner thoughts, and he hadn't told anyone. However, everyone had seen how diligent Su Yan had been these past few days.

  As for Lin Feng himself, he had been preparing for this trip to the Tian Nan Mountain Range over the past few days.

  Lin Feng first went to Qinglan City, where he exchanged all his military merits for gold coins. Then he came to the jade shop in the city and swept away all the jade bottles.

  It was the same when he returned to Wulin City, all the jade shops in Wulin City were bought out by him.

  Buying so many jade bottles is naturally for storing the blood of exotic beasts. The blood of exotic beasts contains the essence of their lives, and must be stored in jade bottles to reduce energy consumption.

  Tonight, Lin Feng is going out to the market to bring back all the hundreds of jade bottles that were urgently ordered. This time, the quality of the jade bottles required is not high, but the quantity is extremely large, so Lin Feng also purchased a large batch in the city's jade shop.

  The largest jade store in Wulin City is called Gu Yue Xuan, which is the property of the city master Wu Ruo Wang. Lin Feng's first goal on this trip was to come here.

  Gu Yue Xuan is located in the center of Jade Street, covering a large area. Inside, all kinds of jade wares are dazzling, and the styles are also complete. Lin Feng walked into the store, and a familiar servant Wu Jiu came to greet him.

  "Master Lin Feng, the things we've prepared for you are already ready upstairs!" Wu Jiu Yin said diligently. They were people from the Wu Ruo Wang family, so they naturally knew Lin Feng, the new captain of the Hawk Squad.

  "Hmm, no rush, I'll just take a look." Lin Feng said, his gaze suddenly sweeping towards a maid standing not far from the counter.

  The maid looked like she was only fourteen or fifteen years old, with a fairly delicate appearance, but that was all. Only a pair of eyes were extremely bright and clear, as if they could see into the depths of one's heart.

  "Older brother!"

  When she saw Lin Feng, she looked over and the maid blushed and bowed her head slightly towards Lin Feng.

  Lin Feng looked at this clean and innocent girl, suddenly having a very strange feeling. The girl gave him a feeling that was not dangerous, but in her clear eyes... seemed to be a thread of... hatred?

  That flash of hatred was fleeting, but Lin Feng caught it. Lin Feng looked at this unfamiliar girl, and his heart was also slightly puzzled.

  "Wu Jiu, who is she? Two days ago I came here, why haven't I seen her?" Lin Feng asked the servant beside him directly.

  "Oh, it's Ah Xiu, a distant relative of mine. He just arrived here to help out for the past two days and wasn't here before." Wu Jiu hastily explained.

  "It was like that." Lin Feng nodded and took a glance at the girl. The girl, Ah Xiu, blushed again and bowed her head, while Lin Feng secretly became vigilant but didn't speak, only using his sensing ability to probe this girl.

  But nothing was gained.

  After wandering around the hall for a few laps, Lin Feng nodded and said: "Alright, take me to see what I want!"

  "Yes, sir!" Wu Jiulian then rushed to the maid and said, "Axiu, come quickly, let's go up together. Weren't those jade bottles prepared by you?"

  "Yes, Ninth Uncle." Ah Xiu said in a crisp voice, her clear eyes curiously glanced at Lin Feng before walking up the stairs first.

  Lin Feng sneered inwardly and made all necessary preparations in secret. At this moment, he also had a kind of adventurous excitement.

  "Sir, please!" Wu Jiulang said repeatedly.

  "Good!"; Lin Feng followed Ah Xiu and walked up.

  In a room on the second floor, several large boxes had been opened, and inside them were neatly arranged rows of jade bottles all the same size. Ah Xiu stood there with an expression of reverence.

  Lin Feng glanced at them casually and indeed, there were 500 jade bottles. He patted a box and said: "Very good. Have these things transported back to the military camp for me!"

  "Yes, sir!" Wu Jiu waved his hand and several strong men each carried a large trunk down the stairs quickly.

  Lin Feng glanced at A Xiu and saw that her eyes were still clear and calm, without any intention of making a move, and he secretly became vigilant.

  Following several strong men down the stairs, Ah Xiu and Wu Jiu also followed. The strong men loaded the jade bottle onto a horse carriage, Lin Feng's gaze swept over Ah Xiu, once again catching a hint of chill in her eyes.

  "Wu Jiu, this distant relative of yours is quite strange!" Lin Feng said coldly to Wu Jiu. "Is she really your distant relative?"

  "What's wrong, sir?" Wu Jiu asked in surprise. "To be honest, I've never seen this girl before, but she came here and said she was my cousin's daughter, reporting my cousin's name. Is there something wrong with this girl?"

  Lin Feng let out a cold laugh and strode towards Ah Xiu. Ah Xiu saw Lin Feng approaching, clenched his fists tightly, and a hint of hatred flashed in his clear eyes.

  "A Xiu, what's wrong with you? What does it mean for you to look at adults like that! What's going on with this girl!" Wu Jiu said repeatedly.

  "I'm going to kill him!"; Ah Xiu suddenly pulled out a dagger from her sleeve and pounced on Lin Feng.

  Wu Jiu seemed to be stunned, watching Ah Xiu rush over with a dagger in hand, and was actually stunned on the spot, not knowing what to do.

  "Hmph!" Lin Feng coldly smiled and stretched out his hand, grasping Ah Xiu's wrist.

  This woman's movements were extremely slow, and surprisingly, she was actually an ordinary person!

  "Master, what's going on! I'm doomed, I'm doomed!" Wujiu finally seemed to have reacted and hurriedly walked up to Lin Feng, repeatedly saying.

  "A woman with no power at all, yet she dares to learn how to assassinate!"; Lin Feng looked at Ah Xiu coldly and said, "Speak, why did you want to make a move against me - humph!"

  Lin Feng suddenly lowered his head, looking at his waist, where a sharp dagger was inserted, already deeply buried to the hilt. And this dagger was held in Wujiu's hand!
