I can only beat noobs.

Chapter 103 You should thank me
Blood Demon Sect?

When Du Caiyue saw the blood-red eyes of the group of men in black who were surrounding and killing Chen Ming, she was overjoyed.

It is true that there is no place to look for after wearing iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it.

For the past few months, the entire Six Doors of Qingfeng City had been searching for members of the Blood Demon Sect, but to no avail. Then, these people unexpectedly appeared before her.

A tremendous achievement fell directly into her hands.

However, Du Caiyue did not rush to make a move, but instead observed patiently.

Their bloodshot eyes indicated that they were merely a group of "blood slaves," having lost much of their reason. The one controlling these blood slaves was the true disciple of the Blood Demon Sect, still hidden in the shadows.

Anyway, since those blood slaves just said they would capture him alive, Chen Ming's life wouldn't be in danger.

It's good to let him suffer a little.

Du Caiyue concealed her aura while observing every possible hiding place around her.

After a moment, she suddenly realized that something was wrong.

The eight fearless blood slaves attacked simultaneously, but they failed to capture Chen Ming for a long time. Instead, he killed several of them.

In just a few breaths, four blood slaves had been taken down. Chen Ming only suffered a few injuries, which looked serious but were actually just superficial wounds.

He fought with increasing ferocity, and with another sword stroke, he beheaded a blood slave, his body covered in blood, like a war god.

this--

Du Caiyue was stunned, her jaw almost dropping. "This...how...is this possible?"

Blood slaves are not easy to deal with. Although they lack rationality, they are fearless and ruthless. The most troublesome thing is their blood demonic energy, which is extremely filthy and comparable to poison. Once it invades one's meridians, it is extremely difficult to expel.

Chen Ming had only broken through to the sixth rank a few months ago, yet he managed to kill five of the eight sixth-rank blood slaves in succession.

If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she wouldn't have believed it was true at all.

When Chen Ming unleashed another sword technique, Du Caiyue's eyes narrowed slightly. She saw that this sword strike had completely enveloped the vital points of the three blood slaves.

His swordsmanship was so exquisite and his skill so profound that it amazed her.

Three streaks of blood flashed by.

The last three blood slaves were struck by the sword at the same time, with three bloody holes appearing in their bodies, and they collapsed to the ground with a thud.

"It's a pure Yang cultivation technique!"

A flash of insight struck Du Caiyue: "Could it be—"

A name flashed through her mind.

The Fiery Sun Divine Skill!
That's it!

No wonder……

"Good swordsmanship!"

Suddenly, a voice of admiration rang out, followed by a burst of wild laughter, "Hahaha... From now on, it's mine!"

caught you!

A cold glint flashed in Du Caiyue's eyes as she finally locked onto the other party's location. With a loud bang, the carriage was shattered into pieces, and her figure transformed into a black shadow as she lunged towards a large tree.

"Fourth Rank—"

The voice that had just spoken suddenly turned furious and screamed, "Du Caiyue, what are you doing here—no—"

……

After Chen Ming killed all the enemies in front of him, the overwhelming flood of memories, layer upon layer, overwhelmed his last bit of rationality.

When he came to his senses, he saw Du Caiyue standing not far away, with a person lying at her feet, looking at him with a strange gaze.

Chen Ming ignored her and first checked his injuries.

He was stabbed four times in total: once on his shoulder, once on his back, once on his thigh, and once on his calf.

It wasn't because there were more people at the beginning; in fact, these eight people had almost no coordination, and each time they could only be attacked by two or three enemies.

He was injured because he wasn't proficient in swordsmanship at the beginning.

After killing several people, he added all his experience points to the Vermilion Bird Sword Technique, which improved his swordsmanship by several levels. Killing the last three people was already very easy for him.

Fortunately, the bleeding from all four wounds has stopped, and judging from the feeling of the wounds, there are no signs of poisoning.

Chen Ming opened the panel again and took a look.

【Level: 42】

Current points: 60000

[Cultivation Techniques: Iron Horse Stake (Fifth Level Perfection), Three Yang Body Forging Technique (Ninth Level Perfection), Six Yang Qi Cultivation Technique (First Level 79652/100000)] [Martial Arts: Three Talents Fist (Mastery), Eight Trigrams Saber Technique (Mastery), Zhuang Family Flying Knife (Mastery), Swallow Return Sword Technique (Mastery), Vermilion Bird Sword Technique (Proficient 191321/200000)]

"That is to say, killing a level 40 enemy gives you 20,000 experience points."

Chen Ming quickly figured it out.

In just a short while, he gained 160,000 experience points.

"Experience in killing is definitely worth getting quickly."

He felt a little emotional.

At that moment, Du Caiyue's voice reached his ears, "First time killing someone?"

Chen Ming then looked at her and questioned, "Why didn't you protect me just now?"

Du Caiyue said calmly, "You should thank me. That battle just now will benefit you for the rest of your life. If you hadn't been forced into a life-or-death situation, your swordsmanship wouldn't have improved so much."

You think I'm going into a superhuman state?
Actually, I'm adding some points.

Chen Ming mentally scoffed, not wanting to dwell on it anymore. He looked at the person lying on the ground and asked, "Who is this person?"

“The true disciple of the Blood Demon Sect. These eight blood slaves are all under his control.”

"Blood slaves?"

Chen Ming's eyes narrowed.

Du Caiyue patiently explained, "When the Blood Demon Sect refines human pills, they turn the furnace slag into blood pills. These blood pills look exactly the same as human pills, but their effects are far different, and they have strong side effects. If you consume too much, it will erode your sanity. The Blood Demon Sect uses secret methods to control these people, and they are called blood slaves. These blood slaves are no different from ordinary people in normal times, except that when they circulate their internal energy, their eyes will turn blood-red."

Chen Ming was deeply shocked after hearing this. After hundreds of years, these secrets about the Blood Demon Sect were probably only known to the Six Doors and those major powers.

He had previously asked Zhuang Xiaotian to investigate the Changsheng Sect, but he hadn't found any information about it.

Du Caiyue pulled off the man's mask and asked him, "Do you recognize this person?"

Chen Ming looked closely for a while and saw that the man was about thirty years old, with a fair complexion and no beard. He was completely unfamiliar with him and shook his head, saying, "Never seen him before."

"Then why did he ambush you?" Du Caiyue looked him up and down. "And you even knew in advance that someone was going to harm you, so you came to me for protection."

Chen Ming said with a wry smile, "If I had known that the people who were going to ambush me were from the Longevity Sect, I definitely wouldn't have come out of the city to take this risk."

Du Caiyue wasn't so easily fooled, and asked directly, "So, how did you know someone wanted to harm you?"

Chen Ming said, "Would you believe me if I said it was intuition, sir?"

intuition?

Du Caiyue believed that some people had excellent intuition, but to squander the favor of a fourth-rank expert, who was also a captain of the Six Doors, based solely on intuition? That was utterly ridiculous.
Just then, the sound of hooves rang out, and a group of twenty or thirty riders galloped towards them. They were all dressed in black, and were none other than members of the Six Doors, but their agility was unlike that of ordinary ninth-rank officials.

Upon reaching her, everyone reined in their horses and rushed to Du Caiyue, kneeling on one knee, "Lord Du."

Du Caiyue ordered, "Take all eight corpses back and find out who each one is. Be quick!"

"Yes, my lord."

"Also, leave five horses behind."

"Yes."

The man in black took the body and left as instructed.

Du Caiyue then said to Chen Ming, "Let's go."

Chen Ming approached the carriage. Besides the two horses' corpses, the coachman's body lay beside them. He lifted the coachman's body and placed it on one of the horses.

Then, he came to Zhang Mingkai's body, his heart heavy.

His straightforward and outspoken nature actually suited him quite well. So he liked to take him everywhere he went, but unexpectedly, it ended up getting him into trouble.

There are already few people in this world who are willing to speak the truth, and now there is one less.

Chen Ming picked up Zhang Mingkai's body, placed it in the carriage, and tied it with a rope to prevent it from falling off during the journey.

Throughout the entire process, Du Caiyue simply watched quietly without disturbing him.

……

When the two arrived at the city gate, it was already closed.

Fortunately, Du Caiyue, a fifth-rank military officer, was there, which allowed the guards to open the city gates; otherwise, they would have had to spend the night outside the city.

After entering the city, Du Caiyue led the Blood Demon Sect disciple back to the Six Doors.

Chen Ming led the two horses carrying the corpses back to Xiushui Street and knocked on the door of his own house.
