Chapter 31 Confusion
One is a martial artist of the first level, while the other is only a martial artist of the eighth level. The gap between the two is huge.
clang!
Ling Chen drew his sword from its sheath, and the sword collided with Liu Chengfeng's. Suddenly, brilliant sparks burst out.
Under the fierce blow of this sword, Ling Chen's figure retreated back for more than ten steps before he stopped.
"The so-called number one genius in the martial arts world, is this all you can do? You have a false reputation, die!"
A hint of sarcasm appeared in Liu Chengfeng's eyes. He did not give Ling Chen any time to rest and swung his sword again.
This sword drew a streak of sword energy in the air and shot towards Ling Chen.
His expression changed, and Ling Chen leaned sideways and drew his sword, barely blocking the sword energy. However, at this time, Liu Chengfeng took the opportunity to strike out with a palm, condensing a lot of true energy, and hit Ling Chen in the chest.
puff!
A mouthful of blood spurted out, and Ling Chen's body flew backwards, smashing out of the room fiercely and being swallowed by the night.
“Ling Chen!”
Xu Ruoyan was extremely anxious, but there was nothing she could do. With her martial arts master's level 2 cultivation, she could easily deal with Liu Chengfeng, but her carelessness made her unable to help at all.
"My beauty, wait till I take care of your ideal young master, and then I will pamper you properly."
Liu Chengfeng glanced at Xu Ruoyan on the bed, and then a very cold smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he walked towards the big hole that Ling Chen had smashed.
Ling Chen is probably dying now, with only half a breath left.
However, just as he reached the gap, suddenly, an extremely sharp aura burst out towards him!
It was a sword energy that was extremely fast!
Phew!
The smile on Liu Chengfeng's face suddenly froze, but he had no time to react at all. The crescent-shaped sword energy shot past his neck, leaving a trail of blood.
The next moment, the bloodstain on Liu Chengfeng's neck suddenly expanded, and blood spurted out like a fountain!
"How can it be……"
Until his death, Liu Chengfeng could not believe that Ling Chen, a warrior, could actually emit sword energy. This was totally unreasonable.
But he didn't have the chance to think, because the sword energy emitted by Ling Chen had severed the artery in his neck, completely ending his life.
boom!
The life in his eyes quickly faded, and Liu Chengfeng's eyes were wide open, and he died with his eyes open.
At this moment, a slightly thin figure walked out from the night.
Ling Chen's face was as pale as paper at this moment. The sword strike just now had used up almost all of his true energy. If this sword missed, he would surely die.
Of course, this sword could not miss. Ling Chen had deliberately shown weakness before, giving Liu Chengfeng the impression that he was vulnerable. He was just waiting for the opportunity to strike this sword. If he wanted to kill Liu Chengfeng, he had to rely on this sword energy.
If you can't catch them off guard, you will be the one who dies. However, in the end, Ling Chen did it.
But even so, it is still extremely risky.
At this time, Xu Ruoyan, who was still lying on the bed, heard footsteps slowly approaching.
She was in a state of confusion and had no idea what had just happened, but from the noise, she could tell that someone had died. As for whether it was Ling Chen or Liu Chengfeng, she had no idea.
Judging from common sense, the person who died was probably Ling Chen.
It seems like there is really no escape today.
She closed her eyes tightly and her heart beat faster.
However, after waiting for a long time, there was no movement. When she opened her eyes again, she found that the person standing next to her was Ling Chen.
"you……"
Xu Ruoyan's pretty face was full of shock, and she couldn't speak for a moment.
"Stop talking, we need to get out of here. Sorry for the offense."
Ling Chen didn't say much and picked up Xu Ruoyan. The Liu Mansion was not safe. Although he killed Liu Chengfeng, there were still many masters in the Liu Mansion, especially the head of the Liu family, Liu Chuanxiong, who was a seventh-level martial artist. If they met him, they would probably not be able to escape.
Taking Xu Ruoyan with him, Ling Chen immediately escaped from Liu Mansion, rode on a horse that could travel 800 miles a day, and left Yuncheng overnight.
As for the other three people, it's not that he didn't want to save them, he just couldn't take care of them. Besides, he was the one who killed Liu Chengfeng. As long as Liu Chuanxiong was not so cruel, the lives of those three people should not be in danger.
Riding on the same horse with Xu Ruoyan, Ling Chen set off directly back to Shenyi Gate. Only by leaving the area of Yuncheng as soon as possible could they be safe.
Once the Liu family finds Liu Chengfeng's body, they will definitely send out pursuers immediately. Every minute and every second is important now.
However, Ling Chen's troubles were not over yet. He discovered that the poison in Xu Ruoyan's body had been cured, but another poison had begun to take effect.
"I was in such a hurry to leave that I forgot to find the antidote."
Ling Chen didn't know that Xu Ruoyan had been poisoned by other poisons, and immediately frowned. After leaving the city a hundred miles away, Ling Chen found a cave and put Xu Ruoyan down.
"Oh no. I'm afraid that what Liu Chengfeng gave her was not an ordinary poison, but a chronic drug. This is a bit troublesome."
Ling Chen didn't know what to do, so he could only give Xu Ruoyan an ordinary detoxification pill.
After that, Ling Chen also took a pill to restore his true energy. He was also in a bad condition now, so he took this opportunity to rest and restore the lost true energy.
However, at this time, Xu Ruoyan's noise was getting louder and louder.
“Ling Chen…”
Xu Ruoyan's whole body was soft, as if she was drunk. She hugged Ling Chen, her beautiful cheek pressed against Ling Chen's face, and her breathing became more rapid.
puff!
With his left hand, Ling Chen pointed out and pressed Xu Ruoyan's acupoints. The latter's delicate body immediately went limp and fell into Ling Chen's arms.
"This Liu Chengfeng is indeed a flower thief. The drug is so strong that it can turn an icy beauty into a whore."
Ling Chen couldn't help but wipe the sweat off his face, then took off his coat and put it on Xu Ruoyan to cover her snow-white body.
"Fortunately, it was me you met today, otherwise, the consequences would be disastrous."
After saying that, Ling Chen also settled Xu Ruoyan aside, then he calmed his turbulent emotions, sat down cross-legged again, and recovered his true energy. It was only because of his good concentration that he was able to withstand such temptation. Even so, if it were not for his extraordinary willpower and adherence to the moral bottom line, he would probably have done something extraordinary long ago.
