Bang! A muffled crash blew Chen Feng's door open.
Then the man in black charged straight toward the room where Chen Feng and the others were resting.
Yet in the very next moment.
Boom! A thunderous blast rang out.
In the darkness, a fist smashed directly into the man in black's throat.
He had no time to react before his throat was shattered by that punch.
"You..." The man in black's body went limp.
Chen Feng stepped out of the darkness, his face extremely grim.
Behind him stood Lin Xue, worry written across her face.
Chen Feng said, "Stay inside and don't move around."
"I'll go take a look."
Lin Xue said worriedly, "All right, Husband. Be careful."
Chen Feng picked up his bow and woodcutter's blade.
He pulled off the black-clad man's mask. The moment he saw the face beneath it, his eyes filled with even stronger killing intent.
"Damn it, Huang Haisheng!"
The man beneath the mask was someone from Steward Huang's estate outside the village. Chen Feng had seen him before.
He had never imagined that Huang Lao Si would dare send someone to assassinate him in the dead of night.
Shock and fury churned in his heart.
If he had truly been the original owner of this body, he would have surely died tonight.
Several hundred meters outside the house.
Liu Hao stood in the night, a puzzled look on his face. "What's going on?"
He narrowed his eyes at Chen Feng's house.
A muffled crash should have meant the job was done, and he should have brought Lin Xue back to report in.
Why was there still no movement?
Just as he was about to go over and investigate.
Screech! A sharp sound suddenly tore through the air.
"What?"
Liu Hao's expression changed instantly as he narrowly dodged the arrow.
"How could this be?"
His face darkened.
Then, in the next instant, a figure burst out of the darkness and charged toward him.
Iron Fist Technique! Chen Feng shouted coldly.
Liu Hao only had time to barely raise his arms in defense.
Then he was sent flying several meters away.
Chen Feng's eyes gleamed brightly in the darkness. "Stronger than Wang Hu, but only by a little."
"Come again!"
Liu Hao's face was already filled with disbelief. "A martial artist? How did you suddenly become a martial artist?"
Chen Feng's eyes turned icy. "Steward Liu, so it really was you."
"Die!"
Another punch crashed down.
At the same time, he activated his Superhuman Arm Strength talent.
Seeing Chen Feng's overwhelming momentum, Liu Hao's face darkened. He snarled, "Looks like I can't leave you alive."
He, too, directly unsealed his cultivation.
Yet in the next moment.
A thunderous blast erupted.
Boom! Amid the dull crash.
Liu Hao's arms were smashed to pieces.
The blow then continued into Liu Hao's chest.
His chest was instantly crushed into a pulp.
"How... how...?" Liu Hao's face was pale, his eyes filled with unwillingness.
He wanted to say something, but in the end, his life slipped away.
Chen Feng stood where he was, panting heavily.
He looked at the corpses on the ground, his face somewhat pale.
But with his previous experience in Black Mountain, killing someone did not leave him particularly grief-stricken.
Instead, he felt as though the blood in his body was flowing faster.
His whole body trembled with excitement.
"Could it be that I'm naturally a battle-crazed maniac?" Chen Feng thought.
He let out a soft breath and suppressed the excitement in his heart.
Then, at that moment.
A new message appeared on his panel.
You killed an enemy with the Iron Fist Technique. Your Iron Fist Technique Proficiency +5.
You consecutively killed several martial artist enemies and awakened a new skill: Kill Intent. Skill: Kill Intent (Beginner, Progress 2%.)
"Kill Intent is a skill too?" Chen Feng was somewhat surprised.
He wondered what kind of talent such a skill could awaken.
But this was not the time to think about that.
Looking at the bodies on the ground, he first needed to deal with these two corpses.
After all, although Great Qian was somewhat chaotic now, if a few people died in secret, it could be said that they had died at the hands of demons.
But if he openly killed someone and it was reported to the authorities, there would definitely be trouble.
Fortunately, Chen Feng looked around. Such a huge commotion from a battle in the middle of the night.
None of the Black Mountain Village villagers came out to watch the excitement.
Almost all of them had their doors shut tight.
Even the homes that had still had lights on quickly closed their doors, terrified of being targeted.
Chen Feng shook his head with a faint laugh. He had nearly forgotten that this world was different from his past life.
Very quickly, he grabbed a corpse in each hand and raced beneath the cover of night to the outskirts of Black Mountain.
He tossed them directly into the mountains.
The scent of blood could easily attract wild beasts at night.
He watched from afar for a while. Before long, wild beasts came and dragged the two corpses into the forest.
Only then did he leave.
Naturally, he searched both bodies.
But he only found several hundred taels' worth of Silver Notes on Steward Liu.
As for the cultivation manuals and martial techniques he wanted most, there were none.
He could only let it go.
On the way back, he looked toward Huang Lao Si's estate in the distance, where the lights were brightly lit.
Figures flickered within from time to time.
Chen Feng's face was cold, his eyes brimming with killing intent.
He was also puzzled. Why was Huang Lao Si so determined to make a move against him?
Was it really just for a Hunting License?
Killing intent boiled in his heart, but looking at the brightly lit estate, along with at least several martial artists and dozens of ordinary people inside.
He ultimately still felt some pressure.
"I'll endure it for now. Once I've developed for a while longer, I'll wipe out Huang Lao Si," Chen Feng suppressed the thought in his heart.
Meanwhile, within the Huang Family estate.
Huang Lao Si paced back and forth through the courtyard. There were also several dozen recruited servants and martial artists in the yard.
From time to time, he looked toward the distant village.
His face was extremely grim. "What's going on?"
"They still haven't returned after all this time?"
They were only dealing with a mud-legged commoner. How could it take so long?
The other several dozen figures in the courtyard were also dressed in black, their faces covered with black cloth.
The valuables in the courtyard had mostly been packed away.
Over the past few days, martial artists had continuously entered Black Mountain.
There had even been traces of the Demon Patrol Division.
Naturally, he was unwilling to risk staying here for Chen Feng alone. He had already prepared to take Yin Shengzi and leave this place.
Yet he had not expected that after so much time had passed, Liu Hao still had not returned.
"Go see what has happened to Liu Hao. Did something go wrong with Yin Shengzi?" Huang Lao Si said in a low voice.
"Yes." A man in black answered respectfully.
With a single step, he leaped onto the high wall.
He was about to head toward Chen Feng's home.
Yet in the next instant.
A sharp hiss rang out in the darkness.
Screech! An arrow tore through the night and pierced the black-clad man's throat.
You used Basic Archery to shoot and kill an enemy. Your Basic Archery Proficiency +5. You killed an enemy. Your Kill Intent Proficiency +3.
On a large tree not far away, Chen Feng had also covered his face with black cloth. His eyes were fixed brightly on Huang Lao Si and the others in the courtyard as he said in a low voice, "If I don't kill you tonight, I won't be able to sleep!"
Before you continue
