Chapter 182
His eyes watched the situation in the surroundings vigilantly.
This was to prevent someone from suddenly rushing out and causing harm to Fusu.
Lu Bing hurried and rushed, finally arriving before Fusu at this critical juncture.
Separated by a great distance, even though the night was dim, he still saw the scene of the battle ahead.
But fortunately, Fusu's figure did not seem to have been harmed.
Clang!
Clang!
The sound of blades and swords colliding echoed in the forest.
The group of men in black following Fusu were clearly not the match of those who were launching the sneak attack.
Coupled with the fact that their numbers were not too many, they were in a completely disadvantageous situation.
"Brothers, look after the Young Master."
Shi Feng felt that they could not continue to stay like this.
If they continued to wait, he feared this group of men in black would only end up in a defeated situation.
In that case, the pressure they faced from this group of men in black would be even greater.
Before the brothers below could manage to stop him, Shi Feng directly grabbed his sword and rushed out.
He could originally be considered a brave and skilled fighter on the battlefield.
He met the wrong person and encountered a superior who coveted military merit.
This led to all the great achievements he had made being snatched away by his superior.
As time went on, Shi Feng slowly lost heart in the army.
But he was also unwilling to leave the army directly, so he came here.
The person launching the sneak attack saw a guard rush up, and a flash of contempt appeared in his eyes.
The long sword in his hand stabbed toward Shi Feng at an extremely tricky angle.
He wanted to let this guard see that this kind of situation was not something they could intervene in.
A sharp light flashed in Shi Feng's eyes, and the long sword in his hand parried upward.
He soon dodged this attack.
His posture in attacking was not some profound and mysterious appearance.
It was just those ordinary, basic movements.
But it was precisely because of his proficiency in these basic movements
that the person launching the sneak attack opposite him was unable to break through Shi Feng's defense for a time.
Fusu had originally wanted to stop him when he saw this man rush up.
The strength of this group of people transporting grain and fodder was simply insufficient; if they rushed up, they would only be going to their deaths.
Yet he did not expect this man's strength to be quite good, actually being able to contend with a specifically trained killer.
And the anxiety on the faces of the brothers under Shi Feng also relaxed at this moment.
They knew their boss was the most powerful.
"Do not hold back; finish the battle quickly, just solve it with the fastest speed."
The leader of the men in black who launched the sneak attack said in a deep voice.
The longer the time dragged on, the more unfavorable the situation would be for them.
The group of men in black below clearly also knew this principle, and their strikes became even more crisp and decisive.
Every move and every style carried a fierce killing intent.
Although the difference in strength was not great, under the crushing weight of numbers,
the secret guards beside Fusu were still defeated very quickly.
These secret guards were killed one after another by the swords of this group of men in black.
Watching his trump cards being killed, Fusu's eyes contracted violently.
Just as a man in black was rushing toward him with a sword, a figure suddenly flew out from the side.
Zhang Liang appeared beside Fusu, holding the sword in his hand.
Although he came out following Fusu, he was also in the shadows and did not appear in the open.
After all, Young Master Fusu should not walk too closely with people from the Hundred Schools of Thought.
"Young Master, are you alright?"
Zhang Liang's complexion was very ugly, and his voice was also a bit cold.
When they came out at the beginning, his senior brother had already told him that Young Master Fusu would definitely encounter all kinds of trouble.
And Zhang Liang himself had actually already prepared himself in his heart.
But when he truly encountered an assassination, Zhang Liang still could not restrain the anger surging in his heart.
This group of people truly did not take Young Master Fusu and their Confucian School seriously.
They clearly knew that their Confucian School had already chosen to support Young Master Fusu.
It seems that after this matter is completed, he must let his senior brother thoroughly investigate what forces are behind Hu Hai.
"I am fine; let's solve this group of men in black as soon as possible."
Fusu still had some understanding of Zhang Liang's strength.
After seeing Zhang Liang appear, Fusu's expression relaxed slightly.
The group of people following around Fusu did not expect that there was still an expert beside Fusu.
"Just relying on you alone?"
The group of men in black who launched the sneak attack flickered their eyes at Zhang Liang's appearance.
"To solve you, I alone am enough."
Zhang Liang's face, which always had some smiles, became completely cold this time.
A momentum appeared on his body.
In the pitch-black forest, Zhang Liang's figure was like a ghost.
His movements were as fast as lightning.
Just as he made a move, the tip of his sword had already grazed the neck of a man in black.
That man in black fell to the ground with a thud, and there was no more breath on the ground.
Those men in black clearly did not expect this person's strength to be so powerful.
"Half-step Grandmaster."
The leader of the men in black said it out loud.
Zhang Liang's current strength had not yet reached the realm of a Grandmaster.
But clearly, his strength had already reached a bottleneck.
"You have some discernment, but this cannot save your life either."
The first smile of the night appeared on Zhang Liang's face.
This smile, like his eyes, carried a trace of coldness.
Subsequently, his figure disappeared from the clearing once again.
The night was his best cover.
"Two people in a group, back to back; do not expose your backs."
The leader of the men in black issued the order decisively.
If they exposed their backs, the final result would be hard to escape death.
The strength of this group of people, except for his own strength which could reach the peak of a Master,
most people's strength was only at the middle level of a Master.
Facing an expert at the half-step Grandmaster level, they could simply not be opponents.
But their goal tonight was not this half-step Grandmaster, but Fusu behind him.
