Martial Arts Overlord

Chapter 1234 - 1231: Shocking Assassination

Puchi!

A cold glint flashed, a blood-red dagger tore through the night like a venomous fang, aiming for Jiang Fengfeng’s nape.

Danger!

At this moment, Jiang Fengfeng finally felt the ambush from behind, a strong sense of crisis making her skin crawl and heart thump wildly, instinctively wanting to use Protective Gang Energy. But it was too late.

The next instant.

Swish!

Emperor Yan’s Sky-breaking Saber drew an experienced arc in the night, instantly slicing towards the Blood Shadow behind Jiang Fengfeng.

Hmm?

The Blood Shadow hesitated for a moment, the dagger suddenly changed trajectory, slashing a vivid cross mark in the air, colliding with Emperor Yan’s Sky-breaking Saber.

Clang!

Sparks flew, Gang wind raged, Emperor Yan’s Sky-breaking Saber was knocked flying.

Puchi! Jiang Fengfeng was shaken by the impact, her steps unsteady, spitting out blood, but luckily she had already deployed Protective Gang Energy, suffering no injuries other than a floating qi and blood.

Pushing Emperor Yan’s Sky-breaking Saber back, the Blood Shadow prepared to strike Jiang Fengfeng again.

At this moment, Emperor Yan’s Sky-breaking Saber spun half a circle in the night sky, suddenly slashing back.

"Hmph!"

A cold snort sounded, Blood Shadow finally gave up on killing Jiang Fengfeng, blending into the night, disappearing.

The sound of breaking wind arose, Luo Feng appeared beside Jiang Fengfeng, reaching out to catch Emperor Yan’s Sky-breaking Saber.

"Luo Feng, just now was..."

Jiang Fengfeng looked at the crisscross slash marks on the ground, a bit shaken, her small face pale, completely devoid of her previous pride.

If it wasn’t for Luo Feng timely deploying Spring Breeze-as-Heart-Wills Saber, she would likely have been seriously injured even if not dead.

"Be careful, someone is hiding nearby, a True Yuan Realm fifth-level martial artist, likely targeting us."

Luo Feng’s expression was serious, his eyes sharp.

The attacker could evade his detection, suddenly closing in to kill, every strike lethal; if not for his strong soul power sensing their presence, Jiang Fengfeng might have been decapitated by now.

The visitor was not an ordinary martial artist, but a seasoned True Yuan Realm fifth-level killer.

In a flash, many thoughts raced through Luo Feng’s mind.

"True Yuan Realm fifth-level martial artist!"

Jiang Fengfeng drew her sword, a trace of surprise flickering in her beautiful eyes, suddenly transmitting, "I remember now, before leaving Sky Water Port, my sister warned me that an elder in blood robe was watching you. Could it be him?"

Luo Feng’s gaze sharpened, "Such an important matter, why mention it only now?"

"I... I forgot..." Jiang Fengfeng admitted with some guilt.

"Be careful, he’s still around."

No use blaming Jiang Fengfeng at this progress, indeed Luo Feng had guessed the attacker’s identity, and Jiang Fengfeng’s fighting strength was necessary to deal with him now.

Chhh...

Right after Luo Feng spoke, a flash of blood light, figures from four directions attacked the duo.

"Which one is the real body!"

Having already released True Yuan, Jiang Fengfeng’s spiritual sense surveyed the surroundings, yet couldn’t discern which of the four Blood Shadows was illusion or real.

"The one on the left is the real body!"

Fully releasing soul power, the movement within a thousand meters was under Luo Feng’s control, as the Blood Shadows appeared, immediately noticing subtle differences, transmitting to Jiang Fengfeng.

"Phoenix Flying to the Sky!"

Humiliated in front of Luo Feng, Jiang Fengfeng was resentful towards the enemy who shamed her, hearing Luo Feng’s words, sharp resolve filled her beautiful eyes, gripping her sword, slashing upwards to the left.

Swish!

The sword light flashed, illuminating the dim woods for an instant.

The Sword Qi transformed into a phoenix illusion, drawing a bright line in the void, shooting straight at the Blood Shadow to the left, the ground torn apart along the way by the Sword Qi’s sharpness.

The Blood Shadow paused slightly, like a Ghost Shadow, suddenly shifting trajectory, brushing past the phoenix Sword Qi, the Sword Qi flashing in the void, sweeping clear much of the woods.

Swish!

Dodging the Sword Qi, the Blood Shadow split into three, speed like electricity, charging Jiang Fengfeng again.

"So fast!"

Jiang Fengfeng turned pale, retreating urgently, yet far slower than the opponent.

"Summer Thunder Falling from the Sky Saber!"

During the brief gap, Luo Feng swept into mid-air, lifting Emperor Yan’s Sky-breaking Saber, slashing fiercely.

The mighty Saber Qi like nine heavenly thunders, illuminating the void, enveloping the three Blood Shadows.

At this instant, Jiang Fengfeng saw the Blood Shadow’s real body clearly; extremely small stature, hunched within a blood-red robe, only sinister eyes exposed, skeletal hands grasping two half-foot long blood blades, appearing extremely eerie.

Puchi!

Two Blood Shadows instantly shredded by Saber Qi, the last Blood Shadow’s eyes bursting with brilliance, a hoarse voice issuing from beneath the robe.

"Die!"

Whiz!

An eerie scene occurred, the Blood Shadow three steps away from Jiang Fengfeng, their entire right arm suddenly elongating nearly double, a flash of blood light, dagger aiming directly at Jiang Fengfeng’s fair neck.

"Bone Extension Technique!"

Jiang Fengfeng turned pale with fright, she’d seen in the Sword Tomb texts, skilled assassins could freely control all body bones.

Reducing all bone gap technique called Bone Shrinking Technique, an adult could shrink to child’s or even infant size; Bone Extension Technique was the opposite, martial artists could freely detach all body bones, limbs and head extend or retract freely, attack techniques endlessly varied, making defense difficult.

Boom!

As the dagger neared Jiang Fengfeng, at the crucial moment, Saber Qi slashed down mid-air, Blood Shadow’s Protective Gang Energy distorted heavily, skidding back over ten meters before stopping.

"Spring Breeze-as-Heart-Wills Saber!"

Luo Feng wouldn’t miss such a good opportunity, Emperor Yan’s Sky-breaking Saber flew out, chasing the intruder.

Whoosh...

Night wind blowing, Blood Shadow vanished in the woods yet again, Emperor Yan’s Sky-breaking Saber cut a swath through the woods, flying back to Luo Feng’s hand.

"Such speed..."

Luo Feng frowned, the opponent’s Qinggong cultivation not beneath his, also seemed to have mastered some kind of concealing technique, could restrain killing aura, hide True Yuan fluctuations completely, truly a formidable enemy.

If not for his soul power vastly surpassing ordinary, he and Jiang Fengfeng would likely not have survived to now.

In a flash, Luo Feng appeared at Jiang Fengfeng’s side, "Are you alright?"

Jiang Fengfeng touched her neck, a faint red mark visible on the fair skin, shook her head at his query: "I’m okay. This person can use Bone Extension Technique, be careful."

"I understand."

Luo Feng nodded, his gaze swept the woods, speaking:

"If I’m not mistaken, you must be Leng Feifan’s master, you come here now, likely seeking vengeance for Leng Feifan. Since you’re here, why hide yourself?"

At Group Dragon Island, Luo Feng had heard Qin Xuan mentioning Leng Feifan’s master, Blood Crow Elder; when Jiang Fengfeng spoke of being watched, he immediately thought of this person.
