Eternal Life: I Rely on Fortune Points for Improvement-Chapter 252 - 164: Seamless Three Strikes—Kill! (Part 3)
Han Tieshan and the others couldn’t find any traces of the Loulan Slash.
Jiang Feng’s first strike was a sneak attack, fearing that the True Essence fluctuations would alert Uncle Fu, so the first strike was purely executed with physical strength, without having the chance to use the Loulan Slash.
When it came to the second strike, he executed the Loulan Slash’s Moon-Slaying Style, and that blade struck directly onto Uncle Fu’s forehead.
The third strike casually decapitated Uncle Fu, as the second strike had already killed him. At that time, Uncle Fu had lost all his resistance, and with a backhand strike, Jiang Feng chopped off his head, not needing to use the Loulan Slash at all.
In other words,
the traces of the Loulan Slash could only be seen on Uncle Fu’s forehead.
And now, the head had been taken away by Jiang Feng.
Even if Han Tieshan and the others investigated, they wouldn’t be able to find any traces of the Loulan Slash from Uncle Fu’s corpse.
This is why Jiang Feng took Uncle Fu’s head away.
On one hand, fearing people would recognize that Uncle Fu was killed by the Loulan Slash.
On the other hand, worried that Uncle Fu might come back to life—after all, even Xiao Ran could come back to life. As an important member of the Demon Sect, if the Old Demon Child could also save him, what then?
Anything is possible.
In the future, when killing someone, one must ensure the opponent is truly dead.
"Huff!"
Jiang Feng endured the severe pain in his chest.
Using the Monkey Escape Technique, he headed towards a deserted area outside of Nanfu City. He saw a forest outside the city, with an official road passing through it. He sped up to get away from the crowd.
He arrived at the side of a pond.
"Pfft!"
Just as he stopped, Jiang Feng couldn’t help but spit out a mouthful of blood.
The dirty blood floated to the surface of the pond, spreading like black smoke.
"Such a domineering Palm Technique. As expected, people from the Demon Sect are no ordinary people."
Jiang Feng muttered to himself.
If he could have broken Uncle Fu’s Cloud-Pushing Palm with a single strike, there would be no problem. But that would also allow Uncle Fu to distance himself, making it difficult to successfully kill him.
And since he made a move,
Jiang Feng couldn’t let Uncle Fu survive.
This old guy wanted to lead him by the nose. Even after reaching Nanfu City, he couldn’t shake him off. Jiang Feng knew that if he didn’t resist, his future days would be unimaginable. Of course, even if he succeeded in killing Uncle Fu, there would be many troubles.
However,
both killing and not killing would bring trouble.
Might as well kill him straightforwardly and deal with the problems later.
If he couldn’t handle them, he would flee for eternity. In any case, Jiang Feng was prepared to confront the Demon Sect. As long as he could join the Divine Sect and gain their protection, what harm would there be in killing a few more Demon Cult Disciples with ill intent towards him?
"Bam!"
Jiang Feng threw Uncle Fu’s head into the pond, watching it sink with its split forehead, gradually surrounded by the fish in the pond. By the end of the night, the head would be unrecognizable, sinking to the bottom of the pond.
"Who?"
Just as he was thinking, Jiang Feng sensed an approaching presence.
He quickly tossed a handful of Healing Medicine into his mouth, swallowed it in one go, and felt the stabbing pain in his chest lighten a bit.
"Senior, it’s me. I mean no harm."
Wu Weiwei executed the Three-legged Body Technique, golden light faintly appearing beneath her feet, her figure appearing two hundred meters away.
"Why are you here?"
Jiang Feng looked guarded.
"Senior, you killed the Water Leopard King and saved my life. Now that you’re injured, I want to take care of you as a way to repay you for saving me twice."
Wu Weiwei explained.
"Saved you twice?"
Jiang Feng was taken aback. Wu Weiwei could guess that he killed the Water Leopard King, which didn’t surprise him, but what did she mean by saving her twice?
"Senior, have you forgotten? We met in Dragon Capital. At that time, you sensed something wrong with Zhenbei Prison and left first. When I noticed even you didn’t dare approach Zhenbei Prison, I left with you. Not long after, the Spirit Devouring Array erupted, and many senior experts suffered, losing much of their Primordial Power."
Wu Weiwei explained.
"You could recognize me because of that?"
Jiang Feng looked surprised.
"Senior, your Body Technique is unique, like a monkey. I could tell at a glance... oh no, I spoke wrongly."
Wu Weiwei hurriedly covered her mouth.
"You’re right; I’m just a monkey."
Jiang Feng said self-deprecatingly.
"No, you’re not a monkey. Although your Body Technique resembles a monkey, you’re not one. Oh no, I said it wrong again. Senior, don’t be angry; I was mistaken."
Wu Weiwei became more flustered, eventually lowering her head, sneaking a peek at Jiang Feng’s reaction.
"I, this monkey, don’t need your care. You should leave."
Jiang Feng waved his hand.
Though Wu Weiwei had previously stood up for the merchant convoy and was chivalrous, Jiang Feng still didn’t trust her.
After all, she could use the Three-legged Body Technique,
which kept Jiang Feng wary of her.
Moreover, she had already realized that he could use the Loulan Slash, potentially marking him as a Demon Cult disciple. The fact that he hadn’t attacked her was already a sign of Jiang Feng’s mercy.
"I have Healing Elixir from the Demon-Suppressing Martial Arts Hall with me. Seeing that you were struck by the Cloud-Pushing Palm, I caught up to you to offer this Elixir as thanks."
Wu Weiwei took out a bottle of elixir.
With her Body Technique, she moved from two hundred meters away to within a hundred meters.
"What position do you hold at the Demon-Suppressing Martial Arts Hall?"
The reputation of the Demon-Suppressing Martial Arts Hall in Dragon Capital was well known, not unfamiliar to Jiang Feng. His greatest wish had been to become a Grade-Entering Martial Artist, save enough silver taels, pass the Demon-Suppressing Martial Arts Hall’s examination, and become one of their disciples.
"I am the new Hall Master of the Martial Arts Hall. My name is Wu Weiwei."
Wu Weiwei introduced herself.
"Oh."
Jiang Feng grew increasingly surprised.
He hadn’t expected Wu Weiwei to have this identity. He knew the Demon-Suppressing Martial Arts Hall had considerable influence, certainly not as simple as it appeared. At least internally, neither the Second Prince nor the Seventh Prince could infiltrate its power.
There were rumors that the old Hall Master was a sworn brother of the Great Tang Emperor.
Of course, whether that was true remained to be verified.
"You can trust me, Senior. I would never harm you."
Wu Weiwei noticed Jiang Feng’s wariness.
She opened the medicine bottle in her hand, poured one elixir into her palm, and said, "This is the Jade Dew Pill from our Demon-Suppressing Martial Arts Hall. It is quite effective for treating internal injuries and stabilizing heart veins. If you don’t trust me, I’ll take one in front of you."
Wu Weiwei said as she threw the elixir in her palm into her mouth, swallowing it.
Seeing this, Jiang Feng casually waved his hand, and a surge of Heaven and Earth Primordial Power, like an invisible hand, snatched the medicine bottle from Wu Weiwei, bringing it to him. He sniffed the medicinal aroma carefully.
He couldn’t help but praise, "Good medicine!"
Subsequently, Jiang Feng poured out a pill, popped it into his mouth, wrapped it in True Essence, and slowly guided it into his body.
It wasn’t that he distrusted Wu Weiwei.
But caution is always warranted.
He felt the medicinal power slowly releasing under the flow of True Essence. Only after confirming there wasn’t an issue did he fully consume it. 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖
Suddenly,
there was an overwhelming wave of the Power of Heaven and Earth surging in around him.
Jiang Feng was startled and looked at Wu Weiwei.
"Senior, they aren’t my people."
Wu Weiwei hurriedly waved her hand, clearly sensing the intense wave of the Power of Heaven and Earth.
"I know."
Jiang Feng didn’t doubt Wu Weiwei because this surge of Power of Heaven and Earth came from outside Nanfu City.
"Senior, wait for me; I’ll go check it out."
Wu Weiwei was overjoyed and quickly sprinted towards the direction of the Power of Heaven and Earth surge.
"I must find an opportunity to ask her how she learned the Three-legged Body Technique."
Watching Wu Weiwei leave using the Three-legged Body Technique, Jiang Feng spoke internally.
"Senior, it’s bad news; it’s the Demon Sect’s forces. There are a lot of them, and they’re coming our way."
Wu Weiwei only took a moment before running back, looking panicked as if she’d been startled.
"How can it be so fast?"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Feng was shocked. He had just killed Uncle Fu less than half an hour ago, yet the Demon Cult disciples had already caught up?
