Chapter 44: Beheading the General

"Ah ah ah ah!!"

The heart-rending shouting woke Li Fei from the shock of killing someone for the first time.

A man wearing a dark gray robe holding a knife rushed toward Li Fei with a ferocious face.

From the data obtained in advance, Li Fei knew that this person should be a veteran member of the Anshen Sect and likely mastered arts and laws, so he couldn't help but be vigilant.

The person he killed just now seemed to have a very close relationship with the other party, so the other party's eyes were full of hatred.

Judging from the posture of the other party holding the knife and the speed he exploded with, he was clearly a practitioner of martial arts.

The distance between the two was rapidly closing. Just as they were about to engage, the other party raised his left hand and threw something at Li Fei.

Li Fei was shocked and retreated immediately, while lowering his head and raising his arm to block.

He thought the other party threw lime powder, but it was actually just a yellow talisman paper.

While throwing the talisman paper, the person made a strange sound, like a crow crying.

After this sound rang out, the talisman paper burned without fire.

The next second, Li Fei felt something invisible attacking him, and then, there was no then...

He was slightly stunned, seeing the other party slash at him with a knife, and almost subconsciously used the Rolling Thunder Style again.

He slashed from the upper right to the lower left, colliding fiercely with the other party's knife.

Clang—

The other party's knife was deflected. Li Fei immediately turned his wrist, backhanded the knife upward, and slashed from the lower left to the upper right again.

"You..."

The person looked at Li Fei in astonishment.

He didn't understand why his "Anshen Talisman" had no effect on Li Fei.

"Anshen Talisman" is the fundamental talisman of the Anshen Sect, which can quickly urge people to fall asleep. Even if used against martial artists with firm willpower and full blood and Qi, this talisman can make the other party suddenly feel sleepy, their attention distracted, thereby revealing flaws.

But judging from Li Fei's reaction, the Anshen Talisman had no effect on him at all!

The person retreated a step in time, leaned back to dodge Li Fei's upward slash, and then immediately slashed at Li Fei's arm.

So the second thing that surprised him happened: Li Fei didn't dodge or block, letting him slash his arm.

Swish—

His knife cut Li Fei's clothes and slashed solidly on Li Fei's right arm holding the knife.

But the touch of the slash didn't feel like slashing on flesh, but like slashing on a tire full of air. The blade only left a shallow mark on Li Fei's arm, not even breaking the skin.

The third surprise.

The person was terrified. The successive accidents caused him to lose his last chance. While he slashed Li Fei's arm, Li Fei wiped his neck with the knife.

Anyone who has killed someone knows that after the carotid artery of the neck is cut, blood will spray out. If the position is not right, it is easy to be drenched in blood.

Li Fei naturally had no experience, so he was drenched, his face and stab-proof clothing were sprayed with blood, and the strong bloody smell drilled straight into his nose, making him feel nauseous.

But there was no time for him to be nauseous now. There was gunfire in his ears, and an arrow even hit his lower abdomen, but it couldn't penetrate the steel plate of the stab-proof clothing.

This is the danger of being first to ascend!

"Hurry up!"

Lu Changwu roared loudly.

He also quickly solved one person just now and cleared a safe area on the platform with Li Fei.

People climbed onto the wooden wall one after another. Li Fei pulled out the arrow stuck on the stab-proof clothing and took the initiative to rush toward an Anshen Sect member closest to him.

The opponent was holding a crude gun in his hand, had already fired one shot, and was now reloading.

This crude gun was breech-loading, firing one shot at a time, and the rate of fire was very slow.

Seeing Li Fei rushing toward him, this cultist immediately threw down the crude gun that hadn't been reloaded yet, picked up a knife from the ground, and stabbed at Li Fei.

Li Fei saw from the other party's posture that the other party hadn't practiced martial arts. He slashed with the back of the knife to knock away the stabbing knife body, then took advantage of the momentum to press the opponent's knife body with the blade, pushing forward flatly along the knife surface.

Using a Pushing Mountain Style, he easily cut the opponent's wrist, forcing the opponent to drop the knife, and then wiped the throat with a knife again.

This time he had experience, Li Fei dodged to the side in time and wasn't sprayed with blood.

By the time he turned around and prepared to deal with the next one, he saw several people in the distance turning and running away.

"Go!"

Li Fei turned to greet the few people who had just climbed onto the platform, preparing to continue killing to open the stronghold gate.

Hearing his words, the others looked at him blankly, unable to react for a while.

At this time, Li Fei was covered in blood, and the black stab-proof clothing was dyed red. The murderous appearance completely overturned his usual gentle and upright image.

"Go!"

Lu Changwu was the first to react, greeted, and then ran toward Li Fei.

The others also followed.

There were several ladders behind the platform, but Li Fei didn't go to climb the ladders; that was too slow.

More than three meters high, he chose to jump down directly from the platform.

Lu Changwu and others also learned from him, jumping off the platform one after another.

"Stop them!"

At this time, not far away, another veteran member wearing a dark gray robe led more than a dozen fresh troops and ran toward this side.

Fortunately, these people didn't hold guns, all holding ordinary weapons, and some even held hoes.

Li Fei looked at the veteran member wearing a dark gray robe, took a deep breath, turned his head to the others and said:

"Go open the gate!"

After speaking, he actually rushed toward the dozen or so people on the opposite side!

Lu Changwu on the side hesitated when he saw this and didn't follow Li Fei to rush, but turned and went to open the stronghold gate with the others.

That veteran Anshen Sect member saw Li Fei rushing over alone and immediately showed a ferocious expression:

"Looking for death! Charge with me!"

He took the lead, with a burly man on the left and right holding knives following him to meet Li Fei.

The distance between the two sides was getting closer and closer, and then Li Fei and the leading veteran member made almost the same movements:

The left hand raised hard, throwing something out from in front of the body.

The veteran member threw an Anshen Talisman, while Li Fei threw a bag of lime powder.

Swish—

The white lime powder scattered in the air, covering all three people at the same time.

This veteran member was blinded by the lime, but still made that sound like a crow crying.

The talisman paper burned without fire in the air.

Li Fei rushed forward completely unaffected, slashing at the other party with a knife.

"Ah!"

This veteran member screamed and was slashed to the ground by Li Fei.

At this time, a burly man who followed

This person was only blocked by the lime and didn't get it in his eyes like his companion, so he made a timely rescue.

Li Fei switched to holding the knife with both hands, twisted his waist and hips, and suddenly turned to slash horizontally to the left!

Clang—

The two sides clashed blades, and the impact of the blades sparked a shower of sparks.

The burly man on the left felt a huge impact, the knife in his hand flew out of his grip and was slashed away, and then he had half his neck cut open by Li Fei's knife!

Li Fei turned again and swung his knife to the right, cutting down the burly man whose eyes had been hit by the lime.

Only then did he have time to look down at the senior cultist in the dark gray robe on the ground.

"You..."

Pfft—

Li Fei stabbed his knife into the opponent's chest.

The remaining dozen or so people who came with this man were too scared to continue forward.

At this moment, Lu Zhangwu and the others had already opened the gate of the mountain stronghold, and Lu Sheng and the others who were waiting at the gate just happened to see this scene:

Li Fei, covered in blood, plunged a knife into the chest of a senior Anshen Sect cultist in front of a dozen enemies!
