Wuxia: Start with max-level Nine Yang Divine Skill

Chapter 145 One Person Killed on Foot

"So the one with the best martial arts skills among us immediately went to kill him to silence him, but unfortunately he failed. He only managed to sneak up on him and seriously injure him, allowing him to escape."

However, that evil cultivator is severely injured and has enemies everywhere, so he probably won't dare to show himself openly anymore. We'll be safe for a while, so let's quickly implement our plan.

It wasn't surprising that Li Fu learned that the Taoist of Joy had sold information to more than just Jiao Qi.

Selling one copy of the message is selling it, and selling ten copies is also selling it. It's a business with no cost, so he must have sold it to more than one person.

It seems that he had already leaked information several times before Jiao Qi.

"Wait a minute,"

Li Fu suddenly remembered something.

"I heard from the Taoist Master Leji that the one who ambushed and seriously injured him was a young man dressed in blue who wielded a curved knife."

You mean he's one of yours?

Was he a former member of the Ever-Victorious Escort Agency, or... one of the victims of the disaster years ago?

Zhou Zhen hesitated for a moment, then said, "He... is neither a former member of the escort agency nor a disaster victim."

He is the son of Liu Jingxing, the chief bodyguard of my family.

"A son?" Li Fu asked in surprise. "When the Changsheng Escort Agency was destroyed, I didn't hear that Chief Escort Liu had a son who escaped with him?"

Zhou Zhen looked slightly embarrassed and said in a low voice.

"Because...that's because my chief bodyguard has a son who is unknown to outsiders."

Like his mother, his connection to the Changsheng Escort Agency was unknown to outsiders.

Li Fu immediately understood: "Is it Chief Escort Liu's... illegitimate son?"

"Yes...yes."

Zhou Zhen sighed.

"It is common for men to take concubines."

However, my chief bodyguard greatly respected my wife and hesitated to bring it up, so he kept putting it off.

After Mianfeng's child was born... the chief镖头 (chief镖头) found it even harder to talk about it.

Unexpectedly... when the escort agency later suffered a disaster, this undisclosed mother and son actually ensured a continuation of the Liu family line.

"I understand your entire plan."

At that moment, Li Fu suddenly understood, and many clues instantly connected.

The blue-clad swordsman was actually Liu Jingxing's orphan. So, why was he in Eunuch Yi's mansion...?

"You went to great lengths to create the rumor that Liu Jingxing had reappeared in Yanzhou, attracting people from the martial arts world."

They then held a petition rally to expose "evidence," even going so far as to fabricate everything and risk their lives, with two fundamental objectives.

Firstly, he incited the heroes of the martial arts world, making Eunuch Yi a target of public criticism and putting him in a passive position.

Secondly, the chaos and pressure created forced him to temporarily expand his guard by recruiting men from the Jianghu figures who flocked to Yanzhou.

"And your young镖头 (chief镖师, a person whose identity is unknown to outsiders) can take this opportunity to change his identity, blend in, and infiltrate the mansion to assassinate you!"

Although the young镖头 (bodyguard/escort) named Liu Mianfeng was an illegitimate child, Liu Jingxing's entire family were still his relatives and elders.

Moreover, having been taught by Liu Jingxing, who harbored immense grievances and hatred since childhood, this young镖头 (bodyguard/escort) must have been thoroughly instructed to avenge the former Changsheng镖局 (Ever-Victorious Escort Agency) and the lives of hundreds of thousands of disaster victims.

It seems that he is indeed willing to take the risk of assassinating Eunuch Yicai.

Zhou Zhen and the others looked on with admiration and nodded, saying, "Officer Li is right, that's exactly it."

Li Fu continued.

"The escape of the severely injured Daoist Leji is a bad thing for you."

But you also turned the tables and spread rumors that Liu Jingxing was ambushed and seriously injured by Leji Daoren.

Although the Taoist Master of Joy knew the truth, he was seriously injured and could barely protect himself, so he dared not come forward to deny it, much less reveal the shameful fact that he had been injured by an unknown youth.

And if the eunuch learns that Liu Jingxing, the Heavenly Gang Deadly Blade, is seriously injured and in hiding, he will surely see this as a golden opportunity to eliminate a major threat, and will definitely send out a large number of people to search for him.

"Further dispersing the guards in the manor will create more opportunities and space for your young镖头's assassination—isn't that right?"

Zhou Zhen exclaimed in admiration, "What Constable Li thought was exactly the same as what we planned back then."

If nothing unexpected happens... my young master bodyguard should already be making his move in the manor by now.

But...it remains to be seen whether it will succeed or fail.

He clenched his fists, his eyes filled with both anticipation and worry.

Li Fu shook his head and said in a deep voice.

"Your plan is ingenious, but the chances of it succeeding... are probably slim."

Zhou Zhen and the others felt a chill run down their spines: "Why is this?"

"I guessed that this eunuch, the Grand Eunuch, was able to scheme and fight his way up in the palace, almost becoming a powerful eunuch."

Knowing that there are many people in Yanzhou who want to kill him, how could he not guard against someone taking the opportunity to sneak into the mansion and assassinate him?

He would certainly use those newly recruited experts whose backgrounds were unclear, but he would also inevitably remain wary of them.

Zhou Zhendao.

"Even if we are on guard, it is not a problem."

My young master is exceptionally talented; his martial arts skills are no less than those of the former chief镖头 (chief镖头), and may even surpass his master's.

Back then, the chief镖头 (chief镖头) went mad while researching and creating a set of sword techniques. Afterwards, Cansheng passed on to him the Deathly Blade technique, which was more dangerous and deadly than the Heavenly Gang Deathly Blade, which he had created with his life's work.

This sword technique abandons the domineering and fierce style of the original sword technique, with each move being deadly and unpredictable, generating deadly killing intent from the most unexpected places.

If the young镖头 (bodyguard/escort) can use his status as a top expert in the manor to break through the outer guard posts and enter the inner courtyard, he will have a chance to meet that eunuch traitor.

Even with guards by his side... within five steps, a sudden attack would be unstoppable!

Upon hearing this, Li Fu frowned even more deeply: "You're pinning your hopes on the young镖头's superb swordsmanship and close-quarters attacks."

But did you know that your father-in-law has a bodyguard with martial arts skills beyond the imagination of ordinary people?

"But what about that golden Arhat stone tablet?"

Zheng Baichuan couldn't help but interject, "We also know that this person is skilled in martial arts, and we have heard that his skills are almost on par with the abbot of Shaolin Temple, but... my young head镖师 may not be weaker than the abbot of Shaolin Temple."

Moreover, I've heard that he is highly respected by the eunuch Yi, unlike ordinary guards who are always by his side.

"That was many years ago."

Li Fu waved his hand to interrupt him.

"The martial arts of that golden-bodied Arhat are probably even more terrifying than the rumors in the martial arts world. He stole the Arhat's True Scripture from Shaolin Temple years ago and has been pursued by Shaolin all the way."

Only when the people sent by Shaolin could not do anything about it and Shaolin had to suffer this loss did he have time to deeply comprehend and cultivate this divine skill.

For many years, he studied under a master, living a secluded life and studying martial arts. Over the years, his skills have become vastly different from what they were back then.

I once personally entered the flower hall of Eunuch Yicai's mansion and spoke with him face to face.

Even though it was separated by a courtyard, the movements of the golden Arhat Shi Zhuo practicing his skills could shake the floor of the flower hall and cause ripples to spread in the teacups on the table!

This level of martial arts skill is beyond what an ordinary person could achieve by practicing ordinary martial arts for a lifetime.

In my opinion, this person has reached a state of perfection in both internal and external martial arts, and his cultivation is unfathomable.

With his skill, he could sense even the slightest movement within a few dozen steps.

Even if your young master镖头 (bodyguard/escort) can kill that eunuch traitor with a single blow, he still won't escape, and there's a slight chance he'll perish together with the eunuch traitor.

If the first move fails—not only will I lose my life, but all my efforts will be in vain!

"What?!"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Zhen and the others were struck dumb, their faces drained of color.

They never expected that the golden-bodied Arhat's martial arts skills had reached such an unbelievable level!

If what Li Fu said is true, wouldn't the young镖头's assassination plan be like walking into a trap?

All their plans were in vain.

"What...what should we do!"

"Wait here and do not move."

"I'll go check out that eunuch's residence."

Li Fu suddenly stood up and looked in the direction of the eunuch's residence. Having just left that residence, he decided to go back and take another look.

"I'm 80% sure the mastermind is Eunuch Yicai, that's enough."

Even if Zhou Zhen and the others hadn't mentioned these things, he had originally planned to rescue the people first, then storm their door and capture the eunuch.

They forced the truth out of the disaster relief fund case from back then, and punished the wicked.

Now that he knows someone is in danger, he doesn't mind helping them out.

"The mysterious theft of three million taels of disaster relief funds years ago led to the starvation deaths of hundreds of thousands of disaster victims in many parts of the Northwest. Today, the truth of this matter should be revealed and brought to a close."

Having said that, Li Fu flicked his blue robe and dashed out of the prison like an arrow.

"Officer Li, please be extremely careful!"

Zhou Zhen and the others exclaimed in surprise, feeling both grateful and worried.

Not far from the gate, they saw Feng Shaoting, Chen Tao, and others leading a group of constables and yamen runners rushing over, clearly having heard the commotion and come to meet them.

"Officer Li, what's the situation inside?"

When Feng Shaoting saw him come out, he hurriedly asked.

Chen Tao, however, keenly sensed the still-present, fierce killing intent emanating from Li Fu, and was taken aback.

"Boss, where...where are you going?"

Li Fu continued walking without stopping, saying in a deep voice, "Prefect Feng, Chen Tao, you two go to the prison immediately to handle the aftermath. I have rescued Zhou Zhen and the others, but there are still urgent matters that need to be dealt with immediately!"

Before he finished speaking, he was already eight or nine zhang away, his blue robe fluttering, rushing towards the east of the city like a gust of wind, without even riding a horse.

Li Fu pushed his lightness skill to its limit, and the true qi of the Yi Jin Jing circulated endlessly within his body. Supported by a century of internal energy, his speed was astonishing, leaving only a faint green shadow on the long street.

In less than the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, he had returned to the outside of his father-in-law's luxurious mansion.

The gates of the mansion remained wide open. With Li Fu's exceptional hearing, he could faintly hear shouts and commotion coming from inside, as if something had happened.

The guards at the gate were startled to see Li return with a cold and murderous expression. They were about to go forward and ask him questions.

Li Fu had no interest in wasting time talking nonsense with them.

Without pausing, he charged straight towards the gate!

"stop!"

Two guards drew their swords to block their way.

Li Fu didn't even look, and with a flick of his sleeve, a surge of powerful true energy erupted forth.

The two guards felt as if they had been hit by an invisible giant wave. With a cry of alarm, they were sent flying backward, sword and all, crashing into the vermilion gate. They immediately coughed up blood and fainted.

Li stepped into the mansion.

More than ten guards and martial arts practitioners, who had rushed over upon hearing the commotion, surrounded the area, brandishing weapons and shouting.

He was concerned about the situation in the inner courtyard and deeply abhorred the crimes committed by Gongsi Tuli and others that had caused the deaths of hundreds of thousands of disaster victims, and he took ruthless action against them.

A burly, dark-faced man wielding a thick-backed broadsword suddenly lunged forward, the blade flashing, aiming for Li Fu's shoulder.

"roll!"

Li Fu didn't stop, using his inner energy to block the knife, and casually struck out with his left palm, leaving a mark on the opponent's chest.

With a bang, the burly man's sternum caved in, he spat out blood, and flew backward, crashing into several of his companions who also coughed up blood and flew backward like tattered sacks.

"Stop causing trouble!"

A tall, thin man silently thrust a pair of water-splitting daggers at Li Fu's ribs.

"Ahhh..."

Li Fu unleashed his Dragon Claw Hand, his five fingers like hooks, swiftly gripping the man's wrist. With a burst of internal force, he crushed the man's wrist bone with a cracking sound, causing the man's eyes to bulge out and him to scream in agony.

Without any mercy, he swept the body away as if it were a weapon, knocking down the three guards who were attacking from the left with sticks.

"stop!"

Another martial arts practitioner wielding a chain gun brandished his weapon, attempting to block Li's path.

Li Fu snorted coldly, and with a grab and a twist in the air with his left hand, he activated the Dragon Capture Technique. The chain spear was pulled by an invisible force and turned back to entangle its owner!

Click!

Caught off guard by the terrifying skill, the man's neck was snapped by his own weapon, his face filled with horror and disbelief.

Li Fu moved like the wind, killing one person every ten steps. With palm strikes, claw grabs, sleeve flicks, and finger points, wherever he went, people and horses fell, and bones were broken. He was truly ruthless.

Ordinary guards and those mediocre martial arts practitioners were no match for his century-old internal energy and exquisite martial arts techniques; they were as vulnerable as clay chickens and earthenware dogs.

In a short while, twenty or thirty people were lying in the front yard, groaning and howling, and no one could stop him even a step!

He walked without stopping, crossing the front yard and heading straight for the inner yard.

Along the way, they encountered seven or eight more of the eunuch's diners who had come after hearing the news, including some who were quite famous in the martial arts world.

However, under Li Fu's terrifying martial arts skills, no one could withstand a single move from him without spitting blood and being forced to retreat; they were either killed or seriously injured.

They fought their way to the front of the flower hall, where four figures stood side by side, blocking their path.

These four individuals possessed a composed demeanor, quite unlike the ordinary guards and retainers from before. They were top-tier experts who had been selected and treated as honored guests by Eunuch Yicai.

Three of them had cold expressions and sharp eyes, clearly indicating that they possessed profound inner strength.

Only the person standing on the far right noticed Li Fu's murderous aura and his expression changed slightly; it was none other than Tang Jin, the Thousand-Handed Centipede.

Li Fu turned his gaze toward the inner courtyard's flower hall.

The faint sounds of breaking objects and shouts could be heard from inside the courtyard, suggesting that something had indeed happened.

"It seems that Liu Jingxing's son, Liu Mianfeng, has already made the assassination attempt."

The middle-aged swordsman wielding the swift sword glanced playfully at the courtyard, then turned to look at Li Fu, who had stormed in with murderous intent, and sneered.

"An incident just occurred inside the courtyard, and now someone else has barged in without any sense. Hasn't he heard that I, Swift Wind Swordsman, have become a retainer of Eunuch Yi's household?"

This person is Han Jun, a famous swordsman from Jiangnan, known for his swift and powerful swordsmanship.

He was known for his speed in swordsmanship, his sword strikes were as fast as lightning, and it was said that he could strike seventeen times in a single breath, and every strike was precise. He was rarely matched in the Jiangnan region and was very proud of himself.

A burly, bald man with a face as black as iron grinned and spoke in a booming voice.

"Brother Han, why get angry? He's just an arrogant young martial artist who doesn't know his place. I'll just chop him down with one axe!"
