Chapter 112: Achieve total annihilation!

After replenishing his weapons in Shanyang Prefecture, Lu Chen went straight to Tianmu County.

Based on the intelligence gathered by the Black Killing Pavilion, he searched and discovered the Black Killing Pavilion's headquarters.

He didn't force his way in, but circled around several times and flew in the sky, but found nothing unusual, and his inner sense of danger didn't trigger any alarms.

"There shouldn't be any danger."

He relaxed a little.

Holding a throwing knife in one hand, Lu Chen quietly arrived at a rooftop and looked in the direction of the Black Killing Pavilion.

At this moment, the Black Kill Pavilion was brightly lit.

Four assassins from the Black Kill Pavilion headquarters in the capital city had just arrived in Tianmu County.

After receiving the message from headquarters, they quickly completed their respective tasks and went to Shanyang Prefecture to gather some intelligence before arriving at Tianmu County, the last remaining county, hoping to obtain some useful information there.

But we found nothing!

The people of Tianmu County seem to be out of their minds. The Black Killing Pavilions in the two surrounding counties have all disappeared, yet they have no awareness of intelligence gathering whatsoever; it's a complete blank!

Across from them, Brother Long, the head of the Black Killing Pavilion in Tianmu County, was covered in sweat, hunched over, and dared not speak.

The six assassins behind him remained silent.

Opposite them stood four people, each with their own unique characteristics.

The lone figure was dressed in white, with a ribbon tied around his forehead, from which a few strands of hair, resembling catfish whiskers, hung down, giving him a very dashing appearance.

He leaned against a camphor tree in the corner, head down, casually trimming his nails with a knife.

Beside him squatted a thin man, named Locust, who was eating a steamed bun in small bites.

The man ate slowly and carefully, holding a steamed bun in each hand, chewing each bite twenty times before swallowing.

He even picked up the crumbs of steamed bun that had fallen on the ground and stuffed them into his mouth.

"Tsk, you're really something, eating anything that falls on the ground, aren't you disgusted?"

On the side of the locust, a cold and beautiful woman dressed in red crossed her arms and pursed her lips.

"Red makeup, locusts have been doing this for years, you know that."

At the very front of the four stood a man in blue robes, of medium build and with an ordinary appearance—the kind of person you'd easily lose in a crowd. His voice was gentle.

"Tch. Xiao Zhang, there's no useful information here. Let's go, don't waste time, I have a lot of things to do."

Her lips were bright red, just like her red dress.

Lu Chen looked at the four people from a distance and felt that their strength was average.

"Could it be a trap?"

He pondered it in his heart.

But it doesn't look like it.

Most importantly, no crisis warning was displayed for the Hunyuan Body.

"Probably just some low-level thugs. Oh well, I trust the Primal Chaos Body the system gave me! Let's go!"

With his left hand, he flung out a throwing knife, while with his right hand, he swung his arm in a wide arc and threw out a handful of caltrops.

"Bang bang bang bang!"

A series of explosions rang out.

The four women in red instantly sensed the danger, their scalps tingling with fear. Without hesitation, they rushed into the house to find cover.

"spread!"

The middle-aged man, whom Hongzhuang called Xiao Zhang, shouted quickly, having already disappeared into the darkness.

The eight assassins in front of them didn't even have time to react before being shattered into pieces by the caltrops, which scattered everywhere.

Take it all in one go.

[Under the host's influence, the fates of Brother Long and the other six have changed.]

[Life Points +2275, Total 22128]

[Luck value +31, total 368]

Lu Chen pushed off with both feet, and his figure flashed to the spot where the others had been standing. With another flash, a thin figure appeared next to him.

The man was still holding two steamed buns in his hand, unwilling to throw them away as he fled.

Ahead of Lu Chen, a throwing knife made several turns, flying rapidly close to the ground without attracting anyone's attention.

Just as he was about to catch up with the locusts in front of him, a murderous intent suddenly appeared.

The other three had somehow formed a circle around Lu Chen.

The locusts in front stopped fleeing, turned around and looked at Lu Chen with a half-smile, still with a bit of unfinished steamed bun in their mouths.

"So you're the culprit? I can't believe your luck; you actually managed to escape on your own, hehe!"

Hongzhuang slowly walked forward, and after seeing Lu Chen's current appearance clearly, she licked her bright red lips, swallowed, and actually stopped.

Lu Chen is now wearing Yan Yikuan's face.

He's really handsome.

"Stop being so infatuated, just kill him already!"

Gu Ying flicked his catfish whiskers, said nothing, and directly thrust his sword at Lu Chen.

All four of them are experts at the Yuanqi Realm, and are considered top-tier within the Black Killing Pavilion.

Dealing with someone whose highest level is no more than the initial stage of the Yuan Qi Realm is a piece of cake!

Without saying a word, Xiao Zhang delivered a palm strike in mid-air with his bare hands!

"boom!"

His speed was even faster than that of Lone Shadow, who had made the first move. In an instant, he arrived in front of Lu Chen, who was standing still. His originally flesh-colored palm had turned extremely black, surrounded by a black aura.

Lu Chen had already formed a rough assessment of their strength.

"They seem just average? Did these people just break through to the next level?"

He felt that even with these four people tied together, the sense of oppression he felt from Baxia back then was not as strong.

It even gave him the illusion that he could easily defeat them.

"Don't be reckless; caution is always wise. Even a lion needs to go all out to hunt a rabbit!"

Lu Chen dared not be reckless, and the throwing knife that had been hidden on the ground suddenly sprang up.

"call out!"

A flash of cold light, and the gentle-looking middle-aged man, Xiao Zhang, was sent flying backward.

His black hand also fell off, without even a drop of blood flowing out.

Lu Chen followed closely behind and slashed down with his sword.

Return to the void!

The place, which was already pitch black, became even darker.

Xiao Zhang coughed up blood, collapsed to the ground, and a look of shock and bewilderment flashed across his face.

Blood was gushing from a hole in his chest, which was clear from front to back.

The blade flashed.

Time seemed to stand still.

The hard bluestone pavement was shattered into pieces by a single stroke, and Xiao Zhang's body was also chopped into mincemeat, causing the ground to tremble violently.

Without pausing, Lu Chen appeared beside Gu Ying, sending pebbles flying, and slashed down with his sword.

"roll!"

The lone figure's eyes widened in fury as he drew his sword to parry.

"puff!"

The sword was easily torn apart as if it were tofu, and then smoothly cleaved down from his head with unstoppable force.

A look of terror flashed in the locust's eyes. Without hesitation, it threw away the steamed bun in its hand and turned to run away.

Hongzhuang was completely stunned.

Two people died in the blink of an eye!

"what!"

She screamed, a fierce glint in her eyes, and frantically channeled all the vital energy within her body, flying towards Lu Chen.

"Die!"

Her first move was a suicide attack; countless red lights swirled and converged around her body before a short sword shot out like a venomous snake.

She concentrated all her vital energy at the tip of her sword, and with a sharp whooshing sound, she thrust it toward Lu Bu's chest.

Completely undefended, solely for attack!

Lu Chen was surprised. With a bang, his figure flashed like a ghost, and Gui Xu slashed upwards with his sword.

The madness in Hongzhuang's eyes was undisguised as she pointed her sword at Lu Chen's blade.

"Ding!"

Lu Chen's arm remained as still as if cast in iron, while Hong Zhuang's body trembled violently. Her arm bones and shoulder shattered, and her internal organs were broken by the violent shock of the distance.

She suddenly coughed up a mouthful of blood, her face turned deathly pale, and she flew out, crashing into a wall where the bricks shattered.

Lu Chen flashed forward and slashed down with his sword again.

"puff!"

Hongzhuang was powerless to resist and could only watch helplessly as Lu Chen's blade flashed past.

Her face was frozen with hatred, her eyes wide open, she died with her eyes wide open.

Lu Chen didn't look again. He soared into the sky, glanced at the distance, flashed, and suddenly sprinted forward.

The locusts scurrying away in front of him had loose-fitting clothes that fluttered in the wind, clinging to his withered and thin body.

Lu Chen waved his arm, and a throwing knife flew out at his will, tearing through the surrounding air and leaving a transparent passage.

"Don't----"

"Pfft!"

The throwing knife pierced his heart, drawing out a spray of hot blood, then circled back, spinning around Lu Chen.

All the strength in the locust's body vanished like quicksand slipping through its fingers. With a thud, it crashed to the ground, turning into a puddle of mud, with blood slowly flowing from the ground.

[Under the host's influence, the fates of Hongzhuang and the other three have changed.]

[Life Points +16028, Total 38156]

[Luck value +141, total 509]

Lu Chen approached the locust, searched it, and found a token, a stack of silver notes, and two porcelain bottles.

There's also a steamed bun.

He threw away the steamed bun and looked at the porcelain bottle.

One of the porcelain bottles likely contained some kind of healing powder, while the other bottle contained something familiar to Lu Chen.

A magic pill.

He frowned, put everything away, and then quickly went to the other three people. After looting their bodies, he carried them back to the Black Kill Pavilion.

After looting the corpses of the Black Killing Pavilion members, Lu Chen went to their intelligence room.

"There's no information about what I did, only about Tianmu County? Do they have that little information here?"

Lu Chen frowned.

This situation was completely unexpected for him.

"Was it taken away? Judging from the situation, those women in red were probably sent by higher-ups. If it was taken away, then..."

It could only be that ugly man next to Xiangfei.

He quickly gathered all the valuables of the Black Kill Pavilion, then set a fire, and flew away quickly with two sacks in his arms.

As he flew, he kept reminiscing.

"My life points are still not 40,000. I can't beat that guy without adding more! What should I do with the remaining 2,000 points?"

After thinking for a while, he returned to the village, glanced at Xiaotang and Xiaoming, and continued to diligently cultivate his Qi-refining technique on the bed.

The other people in the village didn't seem to be bothered.

It seems no one is coming.

Seeing that everything was alright here, he decisively returned to Shanyang Prefecture.

Where could he possibly get a destiny reading in the village?

That ugly man should be in Shahu County, and Xiangfei is there too. If he goes there now, he might run into him again, so he can only go to Shanyang Prefecture first.

Shahu County.

Baxia's injuries looked somewhat better, but they were still rather pitiful.

In the past two days, he and Xiangfei have searched the entire Shahu County thoroughly, even visiting all the villages below, but to no avail.

They naturally didn't let Qingshan Village go.

But no abnormalities were found.

The people of Qingshan Village learned the Eight Directions Step and the Breaking Formation Spear, which are military spear techniques that are widely spread. They are completely different from Lu Chen's style, with vastly different approaches.

"These past few days, we've spotted the Yang family from the capital. They're probably here for that mysterious person too."

Baxia said cautiously.

"Since we can't find them ourselves, shouldn't we keep an eye on them? They're spreading rumors everywhere that Xi Yao is abducting children, probably to force him to come out. That's much better than us searching aimlessly. We can sit back and watch them fight it out, how about that?"

When he wasn't obsessed with love, Baxia still displayed the sharpness of an assassin.

Xiangfei had no better solution, so she nodded in agreement.

"I've already requested assistance from headquarters, and they should arrive in the next couple of days. Once they arrive, it will be easier to search with more people."

Xiangfei said in a cold voice.

She really couldn't stand Baxia anymore.

He clung to her side the whole time, following her everywhere he went, insisting that the other person was incredibly powerful and that he was afraid she was in danger. His gaze was fixed on her, making her feel extremely uncomfortable.

When the people from headquarters arrive, find an excuse to send him away!

Another villa in Shahu County.

Yang Ce was talking to Yang Zhan.

Sha Ge and Piao Piao sat on the side drinking tea.

"Uncle Zhan, have all the arrangements been made?"

Yang Zhan stroked his beard: "Of course, we've basically spread the news throughout Shahu County these past few days, including the villages below, to ensure they receive it. Someone already went to the county government office today."

"What if he doesn't come? Wouldn't all our efforts have been for nothing?"

Yang Ce was a little worried.

"No, I've studied him. He only took action because of his sense of justice!"

Eliminate the criminal gangs and rescue trafficked children;

The Flying Eagle Caravan was wiped out because they were extorting protection money.

Needless to say, the Black Kill Pavilion is gone; in the entire Shanyang Prefecture, only the Black Kill Pavilion in Tianmu County remains. That's enough to say! This person is intolerant of any dissent; he will definitely show up!
